The complete Strategic Plan document is available at http://www.santa-ana.org/strategic-planning/ Legislative Council Committee Agenda 2 October 15, 2014 13C -20 CITY OF SANTA ANA LEGISLATIVE CITY COUNCIL COMMITTEE MINUTES JUNE 25, 2014 CALL TO ORDER The meeting was called to order at 12:07pm by Councilmember Vincent Sarmiento at City Hall Ross Annex, Room 1600. ATTENDANCE Members Present: Councilmember Michele Martinez Councilmember Vincent Sarmiento, Chair Members Absent: none Staff Present: David Cavazos, Sonia Carvalho, Mark Lawrence, Alma Flores, Jorge Garcia, Deputy Police Chief Doug McGeachy and Becky Magallon. Representatives present from Townsend Public Affairs were Christopher Townsend, Cori Williams, Casey Elliott (by phone) and Heather Stratman (by phone). Representatives from Holland & Knight were Dan Maldonado (by phone) and Leslie Pollner (by phone). Members of the public present: None Public Comments: None fSr1�k1U_l111i :4661 Minutes Approval of the April 16, 2014 minutes was motioned by 2 to 0 and approved unanimously. 2. Semiannual Federal Legislative Update from Holland & Knight H &K Legislative Advocacy Update (January 2014 to June 2014) Dan Maldonado provided an overview of the progress report outlining Santa Ana's key issues that Holland & Knight has been assisting with, including the ICE /US Marshals per diem, Urban Area Security Initiative, and the Empowerment Zone Employment Tax Credit. He also discussed the grants that Holland & Knight has been assisting Santa Ana with. Legislative City Council Committee Minutes June 25, 2014, Page 1 13C -21 Leslie Pollner informed the Committee that there was success in increasing the City's per diem from the U.S. Marshals and Holland & Knight is assisting with negotiations with ICE. David Cavazos added that the per diem from the US Marshals was increased by 1.5 percent, which represents $2.5 million in additional revenue to the City of Santa Ana. Leslie Pollner also reported that Santa Ana's UASI allocation increased to $5.5 million from $2.5 million. Holland & Knight is working with Senator Feinstein and Congresswoman Sanchez who sits on the House Committee on Homeland Security. Dan Maldonado added that the significant increase is reflective of the work that Santa Ana and Anaheim did. A new funding cycle will be starting and he believes the Senate is likely to increase funding for new UASI requests. Dan Maldonado reported that Holland & Knight led efforts on behalf of Santa Ana to have the empowerment zone employment tax included as part of the Senate tax extenders package. These efforts included assisting with a joint letter of support from Santa Ana, Fresno and Los Angeles to the Senate Finance Committee. Update on Pending Legislative Issues Councilwoman Martinez expressed concern with the Surface Transportation Reauthorization Bill since it is set to expire soon and there could be some consequences to local municipalities. Leslie Pollner mentioned that the Highway Trust Fund expires in August and a viable funding source needs to be identified to replenish the Highway Trust Fund. The House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee has jurisdiction over the issue and its Chairman has talked about crafting a comprehensive, long -term bill. In the Senate, there are four committees that share jurisdiction. Councilwoman Martinez requested that Santa Ana be kept informed of any developments. Councilmember Vincent Sarmiento thanked Holland & Knight for the report and requested that the Legislative Committee be informed of any updates on the TIGER and COPS grants. 3. Semiannual State Legislative Update from Townsend Public Affairs TPA Legislative Advocacy Update (January 2014 to June 2014) Christopher Townsend introduced Cori Williams, associate, who is working on grants. Casey Elliott reported that the State adopted its budget on June 15th, which reflects an overall growth with the state economy. Some of the significant items Legislative City Council Committee Minutes June 25, 2014, Page 2 13C -22 in the budget for local governments are $100 million for mandates, $220 million for local streets funding, and significant investment in affordable housing. He added that the Legislature is still working on a water bond for consideration in November. Another high profile measure moving through the Legislature is the medicinal cannabis legislation and Townsend Public Affairs is continuing to be engaged in Senator Correa's bill, SB 1262, seeking to establish some state level regulations. This bill is scheduled to be heard by the Assembly Public Safety Committee. Councilmember Sarmiento mentioned that having a summary is beneficial, however, he would like the format changed so that the work the City and Townsend Public Affairs have done together is at the beginning of the report. He added that it would be helpful for the report to show progress on things we are working on such as the active transportation program and cannabis legislation. It will be valuable to the Committee to see what has been generated as far as advocacy and status. Michele Martinez mentioned the agendas will need to be formatted differently to accommodate alignment with the strategic plan and also the lobbyist reports. These will help as tracking mechanisms. David Cavazos asked that reports from Holland & Knight and Townsend Public Affairs include "bills to watch ", "bills to oppose" and "bills to support ". Update on Pending Legislative Issues Casey Elliott discussed SB 7, the prevailing wage measure from 2013. The measure which goes into effect January 2015 restricts state funding for charter cities with charter provisions impacting prevailing wage. He added that there's a law suit pending challenging the constitutionality of SB 7. Councilwoman Martinez mentioned that as we look at future legislation we consider that more funding is needed to address outdoor utilities and SB 375 could be an avenue to get additional funding. She requested that Townsend Public Affairs monitor this bill and any future amendments and that they have a conversation with the Public Works Agency Director. Christopher Townsend mentioned that they will focus on that specific need. Cori Williams mentioned that she can do additional advocacy for Santa Ana and it will be helpful to get Santa Ana's top four or five priorities in grants. Townsend Public Affairs submitted 11 grant applications on behalf of Santa Ana for active transportation programs. 4. Review of 2014 State and Federal Legislative Platform David Cavazos mentioned that the Legislative Platform has four guiding principles and it was recently approved by the City Council. Legislative City Council Committee Minutes June 25, 2014, Page 3 13C -23 Mr. Cavazos added that staff tries to leverage resources with other agencies. As an example he discussed the Streetcar Project on page 5 of the Platform under Goal 6. He mentioned that the City Council has been extremely supportive of the project and OCTA is working on the funding as well as the implementation plan, which should be done by August. He reported that the review period closes July 7th. The City plans to go to Washington, DC in concert with OCTA with the goal to maximize federal funding. Mark Lawrence mentioned that City Manager's Office staff will work closely with the federal and state lobbyists and will get a quarterly update from each lobbyist, which will be incorporated into legislative platform. Councilwoman Martinez requested a matrix showing pending as well as completed legislative items at the end of the year. This matrix can be used to update the City Council on the accomplishments by the Legislative Committee, staff and lobbyists. Mark Lawrence recommended that staff update the Legislative Platform quarterly and provide a matrix. Councilmember Sarmiento mentioned that it's important to show progress to the City Council, and more importantly to the public. This will help demonstrate that there is tangible, quantitative value to the contracts with the lobbyists. Councilmember Sarmiento also requested that reports reflect important priorities up front. He added that the strategic plan goals should be prioritized to help identify deadlines as well as help point firms in the right direction so they can be more effective. David Cavazos added that staff will also insure that multiple grant applications are put in priority order. Review and Discussion of Legislative Resolutions and Letter Requests Process Mark Lawrence mentioned that this item was on the agenda as requested by Councilmember Sarmiento at the last Committee meeting. Sonia Carvalho explained that currently staff looks at requests and if the City Council has previously acted on the policy issue, staff will place request on the agenda for consideration by the Council. If there are requests that may not be supported by the City's existing positions or interests or the City Manager seeks direction or clarification, then the Council member will be advised to request the item be placed on the agenda as an 85A item and the Resolution will be prepared if directed by the Council. Vince Sarmiento asked if individual Council members can send letters of support. David Cavazos explained that individual Council members can send letters of support; the letter just needs to make it clear that it's being supported by one Council member and not the entire City Council. Legislative City Council Committee Minutes June 25, 2014, Page 4 13C -24 If it's a request for a letter and the City Manager determines the issue is consistent with the Strategic Plan, or in his judgment is in the City's best interests, the City Manager will send out the support or opposition letter under the Mayor's signature. Mark Lawrence reported that staff has biweekly conference calls with Holland & Knight and will schedule regular calls with Townsend Public Affairs. Committee Member Comments Vince Sarmiento mentioned that it is the practice of the Orange County Water District and the Transportation Corridor Agencies Boards to have committees with 3 members and other board members can attend as alternates but without voting power. He added that this practice may reduce public debate at board or council meetings since issues are discussed in detail at committee meetings. Sonia Carvalho responded that having other board members attend committee meetings is lawful. However, she doesn't recommend it because it may lead to Brown Act violations. Vince Sarmiento asked that Sonia Carvalho talk to Joel Kuperberg, counsel for the OCWD, and look into the question. Michele Martinez requested that copies of the Legislative Committee meeting minutes be provided to the Mayor and Council. Future Agenda Items No future agenda items were identified.

Greene, Recording Secretary PUBLIC SPEAKERS: Robin Cook John McGuinness Sam Romero Paul Guzman Alison Stanley Richard Barasch 1 13C -29 PUBLIC COMMENTS Robin Cook, resident, believes the schools should be responsible for the crossing guard program. He suggests Building No. 16 in the Civic Center as a possible site to be used for the homeless to take showers. John McGuinness, a teacher who resides in the Washington Square neighborhood for the past 15 years expresses concern parking enforcement /street sweeping. Parents are being ticketed during pick -up and drop -off times for their children. Sam Romero, resident, has lived here for 30 years and is on the Board of Supervisors of the OC Housing Corporation. Believes there should be a collaborative effort between the City, County, or other government agencies to purchase one bedroom units for veterans. Mr. Romero suggested taking the handball court out of the Logan neighborhood. Paul Guzman, resident, interested in bicycle /traffic laws. Santa Ana is the worst for bike routes. Alison Stanley, resident, states that she has met with the City Manager's Office, the Police Department and the Fire Department regarding the use of illegal fireworks all year around in the city. To identify the offender is difficult, but this is a nuisance problem because of the constant noise. It is also a safety issue especially in light of the serious drought problem that southern California is experiencing. Richard Barasch, taught Social Science for 30 years at Santiago College and has lived in Santa Ana for 35 years. He has joined with Alison Stanley against illegal fireworks. These are explosives that are not safe and sane. They both met with Mark Lawrence with several suggestions on how to address this problem. Mr. Barasch delivers a handout to the Public Safety Committee recommending supplementing current SAMC codes and/or organizing a task force. AGENDAITEMS 1. Approval of Minutes of 7 -22 -14 Meeting Motion: Approve the Minutes of 7 -22 -14 meeting. MOTION: Benavides SECOND: Martinez VOTE: AYES: Benavides, Martinez, Reyna NOES: None (0) Motion carries. 13C -30 2. Patrol Deployment Modeling (Update on patrol deployment strategy) — Commander Chris Revere (Strategic Plan Goal No. 1, 5a) Commander Revere gives a Power Point presentation which includes a handout regarding Policy Decisions for MAPP. The Police Department has partnered with the University of North Texas to conduct this study. It is a bifurcated study: one is data driven, that is, the calls for service, roadway miles, and other different factors. The second part is in regards to policy decisions. The results of the study are based on recommendations of the Chief and the Senior Management Team based on these policy points. The first part of the presentation is the underlying foundation of the study, and Dr. Fritch calls in to speak to the Committee members. The second part of the presentation is given by Commander Revere and speaks to those decision points that the Senior Management Team had to decide on when the model was brought to them. Dr. Fritch is going to complete an executive report and it should be available in about a month or so. The study is done; awaiting the report. ACTION: Commander Revere will follow -up on the Executive Report. 3. Update on Parking Enforcement /Street Sweeping — Commander Ruben Ibarra (Strategic Plan Goal No. 1, le) Commander Ruben Ibarra gives a Power Point presentation. Currently, parking enforcement is outsourced and done by Central Parking Systems. Street sweeping is done by Athens Services and covers over 100 miles daily. Regarding enforcement, there are no citations on second passing as a practice. Have been consistent but occasionally it happens. If it does occur, the Police Department takes a look at the citation and will void it. The Police ,Department and Public Works work with Athens, Central Parking, and the schools to minimize impact to schools during starting/ending school hours. There are over 60 schools and only six street sweepers to coordinate all the various times when classes are released. 4. Crossing Guards (Assessment overview.) — Commander Ibarra (Strategic Plan Goal No. 1, le) City Manager Cavazos speaks to the Committee. The Crossing Guard item went to Council; a thorough analysis of the program was done to be more efficient. One question asked was why the schools don't pay for this program. Bids will be accepted in the Spring, 2015. Copies of the Power Point presentation were available for the public. ACTION: A meeting will be set up between City Manager Cavazos and the School Superintendent to discuss cost - sharing of the Crossing Guard program. 3 13C -31 Committee Chairman Benavides takes a couple of items out of order. 6. Illegal Fireworks (After action report regarding 2014 Fourth of July) — Commander Gominsky (Strategic Plan Goal No. 1, 2d) Commander Gominsky gives a Power Point presentation. Working on information received, undercover officers were sent out to over 50 catering and fruit vending trucks; however, no illegal fireworks were found. Officers also checked 15 fireworks booths, again no illegal fireworks were found. This year, the Police Department used Craig's list and Facebook where officers acted as individuals seeking to buy illegal fireworks. Five undercover operations were initiated and over 800 pounds of fireworks were seized. Officers were deployed at targeted locations from July 1 through July 4 to handle fireworks enforcement, and this was a successful operation. An overall comparison for the last seven years showed that 14,002 different illegal fireworks were seized in 2007 and 25,687 were seized in 2014. People selling fireworks on Craigslist are doing this as a business. Look at ways to shut these people down. ACTION: Commander Gominsky will research and compare fines in other cities. 8. Discussion of Effects and Impacts of Homeless Population — Staff (Strategic Plan Goal No. 5, 3d) Recommendations were made at a previous City Council meeting, specifically for the conversation to be brought to the Public Safety Committee. At a previous Public Safety meeting, there was a general overview of the item given by staff. One action item was an assessment being done on the idea of a check -in center. Alma Flores gives a Power Point presentation. The Development & Transportation Committee Meeting being held on September 30th will have a discussion on resources available for the homeless. There are a number of public safety concerns as it relates to the homeless community in the Civic Center. We do have issues with lost and abandoned property. It is stored for 90 days and complies with State and City laws. We have an Anti- Camping Ordinance. Both the anti - camping ordinance and storage of property has been upheld in court. Two check -in centers in Orange County are compared: La Palma Park Check -in Center operated by Mercy House and the Costa Mesa Check -In Center operated by volunteers. Both check -in centers were evaluated for costs, hours of operation, programs and services offered. Santa Ana is looking at the OCTA transit terminal to be used as a check -in center. E 13C -32 ACTION: Alma Flores will do follow -up to see the possibility of having the OCTA transit terminal, the Stadiiun, the United Methodist Church in Civic Center, or any other accommodation as a check -in center for the homeless. COMMITTEE MEMBER COMMENTS On Patrol Deployment Modeling (MAPP): The Public Safety Committee members expressed support for hiring additional patrol officers. They were interested in the recruitment process, and eventually looking at a study for the specialized investigative units. On Parking Enforcement /Street Sweeping: The Committee Members emphatized with residents, but emphasized the importance of protecting the environment. Councilmember Reyna suggested moving back to the past practice whereby if the street had already been cleaned, not to ticket even if the time wasn't up. Councilmember Martinez suggested more visible signs, education to community members and increased communication with the schools. She also encouraged the City to focus on a Safe -to- School Route plan. Chairman Benavides wants to keep options open for innovative, creative problem- solving to solve this issue. Suggested alternate side of the street sweeping as one option. On Crossing Guards: The Public Safety Committee was complimentary of the Police ,Department's efforts in analyzing the crossing guard program. Michele Martinez: supports the assessment. A suggestion to partner with the School District was made. On Illegal Fireworks: The Public Safety Committee was sympathetic to concerns of community members who are upset about illegal fireworks that are used year- round. A question was raised as to if the City decided to go with the safe and sane fireworks program, would that end the problem with illegal fireworks? Costs dealing with this problem affect the Police Department, the Fire Department, and the Public Works Department. Chairman Benavides suggested looking at permit fees and whether raising them could offset the costs of dealing with this problem. 13C -33 Fire Chief Leonard explained that enforcement is actually easier in cities that do not allow safe and sane fireworks. In those cities that allow them, there are still illegal fireworks being used and it is difficult to see where they came from. On Homeless Population: The Public Safety Committee had many suggestions of different sites that might be used as a check -in center for the homeless population in the city. This is an ongoing discussion and follow -up will be done with other agencies, such as the County. The Committee engaged in all topic areas, reinforcing and emphasizing their commitment to community safety as a critical goal in the City's Strategic Plan.

DISCUSSION CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY, .* E ❑ As Recommended E] As Amended ® Ordinance on 1" Reading 0 Ordinance on 2nd Reading Implementing Resolution ❑ Set Public Hearing For CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER Federal legislation was passed and signed into law in July 2014 replacing the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) with new legislation titled Workforce Innovation and Opportunities Act (WIOA). Early implementation of the new law will begin July 1, 2015 with full implementation expected by July 2016. While there are many changes from WIA to WIOA, the overall purpose and primary outcomes remain relatively the same. The Department of Labor (DOL) has been drafting new regulations under WIOA and recently announced a delay in their release from January 20, 2015 to spring of 2015. As required by federal procurement guidelines, the City will need to procure youth providers /programs and services that comply with the new guidelines for the upcoming program year 2015 -2016. Staff has prepared a Request for Proposal (RFP) incorporating the available information regarding WIOA Into the document.

DISCUSSION Approval of these recommended actions will allow the City to receive necessary funds to implement an inter - jurisdictional traffic signal synchronization project along the Harbor Boulevard corridor which runs from Chapman Avenue in Garden Grove to Newport Avenue in Costa Mesa. The synchronization work will help to alleviate regional traffic congestion and localized gridlock during peak traffic hours when vehicle speeds are lowest, while also regulating vehicle platoon speeds so as not to exceed speed limits. On October 21, 2013, Council authorized staff to submit joint applications with the participating agencies for funding consideration under the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) renewed Measure M2 Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program. The Harbor Blvd project was submitted to provide inter - jurisdictional traffic signal synchronization and improvements along the corridor through the cities of Santa Ana, Garden Grove, Fountain Valley, and Costa Mesa. In April 2014, the OCTA Board approved the local agencies' funding request of $1,852,080 from Measure M2 funds. This grant award was included in the FY 14/15 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) approved by City Council in June 2014. Based on preliminary estimates, the FY 14/15 CIP 20B -1 Cooperative Agreement for Harbor Blvd Traffic Signal Synchronization Project January 20, 2015 Page 2 also budgeted the required 20 percent matching fund allocations of $150,000 for City of Santa Ana and $260,680 for the participating cities of Garden Grove, Fountain Valley, and Costa Mesa.

The cooperative agreement identifies the City of Santa Ana as the lead agency for implementing the project and stipulates that participating agencies are committed to providing the matching funds for the project. The project will provide and maintain the inter - jurisdictional traffic signal synchronization of Harbor Boulevard corridor for a three -year period.

Project Administration The multi jurisdiction project of Harbor Boulevard will be led by City of Santa Ana. Project Administration services will include but not limited to administration, engineering, design, coordination, presentation and other related responsibilities to ensure the timely implementation of the project. b. Developing and implementing optimized signal synchronization timing In accordance with the Traffic Signal Synchronization Master Plan, the proposed synchronization of Harbor Boulevard will involve the Traffic Forum members to design and implement signal timing synchronization across jurisdictional boundaries to mitigate traffic and improve volume throughput along the corridor. Coordination parameters for peals traffic periods will be dependent upon existing field conditions, traffic patterns and maintaining cross- coordination. Timing plans for Caltrans intersections will be prepared and provided to Caltrans for implementation. The project will take into account of Harbor Blvd timing at Hotel Way in the City of Anaheim. Effort will be provided, to the extent feasible, to maintain cross jurisdiction synchronization on Harbor Blvd into the City of Anaheim. c. Producing a Before and After Study for the project The Before and After Studv for Harbor Boulevard will be conducted as defined by Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program guidelines. The studies will collect empirical data before and after the Primary Implementation. With proposed installations of Bluetooth monitoring stations at selected major intersections, accurate, real -time travel time will be measured along with staff test drives. The data will then be compared for the effectiveness and differences in the performance of the new traffic synchronization. d. Engineering Design of Signal Improvements for the Project The City of Santa Ana will be performing the engineering design in -house for all signal improvements within its City limits. City staff will field verify and design the upgraded infrastructure along with new equipment to implement and maintain the new traffic synchronization. For improvements in City of Garden Grove, Fountain Valley, Costa Mesa and Caltrans where and if engineering design is 5 needed, the agency's staff will provide existing/as -built information and assist the project consultant to prepare the plans. e. Proposed Signal Improvements Garden Grove The City is proposing to upgrade existing detection to Video Detection, replace pedestrian heads with countdown types, upgrades and install Emergency Vehicle Preemption at eight intersections. hi addition, the City will upgrade the traffic signal cabinet at Cardinal St. Caltrans No proposed improvements Citv of Santa Ana All of the traffic signals along Harbor Blvd within the City are proposed to have Ethernet communications, which will enable various locations to have Bluetooth travel time measuring systems and digital closed- circuit television camera systems for real -time monitoring, evaluation and fine tuning of the new synchronization plans. Approximately 3,200 feet of new conduit and 9,500 feet of new fiber optic cable will be installed. Four locations are being designed to have System Detection upgrades. In addition, the City is proposing to replace pedestrian heads with countdown types at four intersections. The City is also proposing upgrades to the Video Management System and Central System at the Traffic Management Center (TMC).

DISCUSSION The Police Department's Central Distribution Center (CDC) provides uniforms and body armor vests to approximately 400 uniformed and field personnel. Uniforms and body armor are an essential piece of daily equipment and help to identify department personnel by assigned duties, provide protection, and provide for professional appearance of law enforcement personnel. New officers and employees are initially issued a full uniform which consists of a duty jacket, three shirts, two pants, leather gear and a body armor vest. Thereafter, uniforms are replaced on an annual basis (as requested) and the replacement allowance consists of three shirts and two pants. Body armor is replaced every five years. Special units such as SWAT, Mounted Patrol, and K9 are issued different uniforms specialized for each unit, but are replaced in a similar manner. Traditionally, police uniforms and body armor vests have been handled as separate contracts. Combining the two contracts will provide the option to select between the two vendors, will ensure contract items stock availability, low price and immediate service for required fittings and alterations on uniforms and equipment. In order to maintain an adequate inventory and continuously meet the needs of the Police Department, the contract awarded to the listed vendors affords the City the best coverage for providing uniforms and body armor to personnel without interruption. 22A -1 Contract Award for Police Uniforms and Equipment January 20, 2015 Page 2 The Request for Proposal (RFP) was advertised on November 13, 2014, and offers were solicited.

DISCUSSION On March 18, 2013, Council approved a three -year contract for leased vehicles. Under the stated contract, the Santa Ana Police Department leases vehicles for various personnel based on need for field assignments. Leasing a variety of vehicles allows for interchangeability in order to maintain anonymity and provide safety for police officers. The current contract allows for a total of 32 leased vehicles, 16 assigned to the Special Investigations Division and 16 vehicles are leased and assigned to background investigators, police commanders and various staff assigned to Training, Internal Affairs and the Personnel Division. On November 4, 2014, Santa Ana voters passed a proposition regulating the operations of sanctioned medical marijuana dispensaries. The regulations will require inspections of the sanctioned businesses for compliance with the newly established ordinance. City staff will also be required to aggressively investigate complaints related to illegal dispensaries. The Police Department has established a task force to work in collaboration with other City Departments that will act as the primary enforcement arm to address this necessity. The Police Department Task Force members consist of five police detectives and one detective sergeant. The nature of this assignment will require undercover operations and surveillance activities on a routine basis. Therefore, assigning undercover leased vehicles for task force members to drive will ensure their safety, as well as the effectiveness of their enforcement and monitoring activities. 22C -1 Contract Amendment for Leased Vehicles January 20, 2015 Page 2 STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal # 1 Community Safety, Objective #5, (provide high quality Police and Fire /Emergency Medical Services response within the City of Santa Ana).

DISCUSSION In June, 2014 the City entered into an agreement with ABM for custodial services of Santa Ana park buildings within the city. At various times during the term of the agreement the City adjusted the scope of services by adding sites to the routine monthly service schedule, which was paid from contingency funds. These sites will result in $27,527.55 of added costs during the term of the agreement. The scope at the Cypress Center was also adjusted as staff determined the scope of service at this location could be reduced, which will result in a decrease of $7,201. Additionally, since the term of the agreement is over 50% complete, contingency funds will be adjusted to equal five percent of the new total service cost during the period, rather than the usual ten percent, which will result in a decrease of $5,271.67. The net result of these changes is an increase of $15,054.88 during the term agreement, for an amount not -to- exceed $153,390.88. Lastly, since these changes occurred at various times during the year, the renewal amount to account for a full year of the revised scope will be $167,099.46 ($151,908.60 of routine service plus 10% contingency), which is an increase of $28,763.46 from the original agreement of $138,336. 25C -1 Agreement Amendment with ABM January 20, 2015 Page 2 STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #6 Community Facilitie's & Infrastructure, Objective #1, Establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets, Strategy b, Equitably maintain existing streets and associated assets in a state of good repair so they are clean, safe and aesthetically pleasing for all users.

A Request for Proposals (RFP) for marketing and education services to implement the public awareness campaign was released and distributed on November 19, 2014, to qualified marketing firms and bicycle education organizations. The City received six proposals. The proposals were reviewed by a four - member committee comprised of Public Works Agency and City Manager's Office staff. Proposal ratings were based on experience, qualifications, project understanding, marketing samples, and familiarity with the grant source. Once rated, the sealed fees from the top three firms were revealed.

To begin this process, we will hold a kickoff meeting at the start of the project with represen- tatives from the City of Santa Ana, The goal of the kickoff meeting will be to: • Review project goals and objectives • Review scope of services • Confirm project and meeting schedules • Collect available relevant documents and information • Establish staff communication and coordina- tion protocol After the kickoff meeting, key action items will be Identified, and the project schedule will be revised (if needed), Alta will provide meeting notes detailing major decisions and action items resulting from the kick -off meeting. Task 1B: Ongoing project Meetings Overall project management will be provided by Alta Planning + Design, with Jennifer Beatty and Gera Larson leading campaign develop- ment, Arellano Associates providing translation and cultural awareness services, and Safe Moves conducting direct education, Alta's Project Meetings with City staff and a Project Management Team will provide a scheduled opportunity to advance the project towards a successful completion and gather information that will help campaign messaging. Publla Education on elcycla $a Wy I Alta Planning+ aealgn Manager, Jessie Holzer, will be in regular contact with the City to coordinate staff, keep parties informed of project efforts, and seek input on key decision points. Since this project is on an accel- erated timeline to meet grant funding obliga- tions, effective project management will be key to this campaign's success. As such, we propose to hold bimonthly progress calls with a small yet empowered Project Management Team (PMT). The PMT will work closely to review products and provide one set of consolidated comments to the Alta Team to quickly keep the project moving forward. We also propose running the education campaign simultaneously to the media campaign to complete tasks prior to summer vacation, Task 1C: Invoicing and Status Reports Alta will submit monthly invoices and written status reports detailing work to date completed on the project to keep the City updated and informed. Direct costs incurred for media place- ment and educational collateral procurement will be included in invoices to the City. Task 1D: Debrief Meeting At the end of the project the Alta Team will hold a debrief meeting with City staff to dismiss the results of the campaign, We will document key discussions and incorporate lessons learned for future campaigns into the project Final Report, discussed as follows. Task 1E: Draft and Final Report Throughout the process of the campaign, we will document stakeholder and public input, steps taken on campaign design and media procure- ment, total cost of placement and procurement, location and duration of campaign materials, metrics provided by media vendors on audience reached, and evaluation survey results. At the end of the project, the Alta Team will produce a draft and final report documenting the work completed and the processes used so that the City of Santa Ana will have a reference guide and lessons learned for future campaigns, Alta will submit the draft report to the City for review and respond to one round of consolidated comments to be addressed in the final report. 25E -11 City of Santa Ant I Alta Planning + Deelgn Task 1 Deliverables: • Project kickoff meeting and meeting notes • Biweekly progress calls and status reports • Monthly invoices • Debrief meeting and summary notes • Draftand Final Report (one round of comments) TASK 2: DEVELOP A PUBLIC OUTREACH CAMPAIGN Task 2A: Stakeholder Interviews and Research To better understand the unique physical and cultural Santa Ana context and define the poten- tial campaign messages, the Alta Team will conduct up to five interviews with the City and other key project stakeholders. Interviews will cover topics such as distinguishing character- istics of Santa Ana, effectiveness or ineffective- ness of current content and communications, and how bicycle transportation in Santa Ana is viewed by the general public. In addition, we will review up to 10 reports or materials, relevant research developed for Santa Ana, and other documents as identified by the City to develop a deeper understanding of the strategic goals behind the bicycle safety campaign. Arellano Associates will play a key role in this task by collecting information that will lead to a culturally- relevant bilingual campaign. They will assist with developing interview questions to confirm the questions are culturally appropriate and are prepared to conduct one interview to a Spanish - speaking group, such as an English Learners Advisory Committee meeting at a local school. Task 2B: Develop Creative Brief The Alta Team will develop a Creative Brief to concisely define the objectives of the campaign and the core problem(s) it aims to solve. The Creative Brief will include information gained through initial research and interviews, key chal- lenges, target audiences, and insights on how to connect with these groups. This document will be the foundation that future strategic platforms and concepts are built upon. Task 2C: Competitive and Inspirational Audits The Alta Team will partner with City staff to iden- tify a portfolio of sample campaigns and best practices to guide the look, feel, and message for the campaign through competitive and 0 lAcomp6fiencs este verano en octividades GRATUITA5 pare caminar y andar en blcicleta!

These audits will review public awareness campaigns (both transporta- tion and non- transportation focused), popular bicycle initiatives, and other safety movements to determine how they present themselves, how they are positioned, and assess the results, if avail- able, They will also include analysis of the social and cultural trends affecting bike safety and the community. We will use these audits to uncover the most interesting possibilities for the brand, potential messages, visual icons and themes, and overall "look and feel" of potential campaign brands. We will present our research to City staff to explore which themes and elements are most interesting and relevant to Santa Ana. This discussion will further guide the direction of this campaign. Task 2D: Begin Creative Team Discussions Based on the results of the competitive and Inspirational audits, the Alta Team will engage In a series of internal discussions to analyze our research and further outline the campaign frame- work. We will use these discussions to: 25E -12 • Define the target audience • Create Insights based on target audience needs • Define character Develop guidelines for culturally- appropriate messages Task 2E: Develop Core Strategic Platforms The team discussion results will directly lead into the development of up to three strategic plat- forms, which will serve as the foundation for efforts moving forward. The strategic platforms are broad visions for how the campaign will feel. For example, the campaign could be designed as young and playful or strong and serious, Both platforms are able to relay a message, but in a different overarching direction. The City will select one of the three strategic platforms, which will form the basis for the evolution of the campaign. Task 2F: Develop Design Concepts The Alta Team will develop up to six creative design concepts based on the chosen strategic Public Education on Bicycle Safety I Alta Planning + Design platform. Each of the concepts will Include a compelling bilingual message or tagline, strate- gies for communicating the message, and ways to encourage the desired behaviors. For example, a potential concept could encourage bicycling In the same direction as traffic by showing what it would look like to drive on the wrong side of the road. The Alta Team will externally test the concepts by identifying a small focus group of 8 -10 reliable sources to provide feedback as the concepts are developed. Task 2G: Finalize Campaign Based on direction from the City about the design concepts, the Alta Team will refine ideas into one final campaign concept that will be produced In both English and Spanish. The final concept will include the campaign message including text or a tagline(s), and provide design direction that dictates the look and feel of the final product. For the Pasadena Safe School Zones Campaign, Alta led branding, design, and development of a high- profile media and web campaign featuring a serles of ads In both English and Spanish. E 25E -13 City of Santa Ana 1 Alta Planning > Design Task 2H: Develop Web Strategy The Alta Team will work with the City to develop a website that digitally communicates the campaign. We understand that Lhe City intends for the campaign to be hosted on the existing City website and we have planned accordingly. This will be completed through the following steps: • Determine the content and publication strategy • Determine technology /platform needs and limitations • Design key page layouts, if possible within the existing website, and an interactive style guide • Identify opportunities to Integrate social media platforms Task 2 Deliverables: • Up to five stakeholder interviews • Initial background research • Creative Brief • Competitive and inspirational audits including a portfolio of samples and best practices • Internal creative team discussions • Three strategic platforms • Up to six design concepts and messages • External testing of campaign concepts • One final bilingual campaign concept with message • Web strategy for digital communication of campaign TASK 3: PRODUCE MATERIALS FOR DISTRIBUTION AND PLACEMENT Task 3A; Define Suite of Materials and Dlstributlon Plan To plan for the design, development, production, and placement of campaign marketing mate- rials, Alta will work with the City to define the suite of materials and the amount /type of educa- tional collateral. We are prepared to produce and procure the following items listed in the City's Request for proposals: • Educational brochures for distribution at schools, libraries, and other public facilities • Bicycle safety materials and collateral marketed towards school age children including: x Coloring books » Bicycle helmets Bicycle lights » Reflective bands • Bicycle and pedestrian safety web pages to be posted on the City's website (discussed in Task 2) • Advertisements to be placed on the Interior and exterior of OCTA buses • Advertisements for placement on bus shelters and benches • Streetlight banners for display city -wide After receiving approval on the suite of materials, we will develop a Media Deployment proposal for City review, summarizing our plan for media placement, distribution of materials, and duration of posting. For the Lights On campaign In Marin County, the Alta Team developed a safety and encouragement program that gave bicycle lights to cyclists riding without them at night, Task 3B: Develop Draft and Final Materials Alta will use the final campaign concept to create up to three campaign designs that communicate the approved message(s) within the established brand. Designs will include all required logos and copy. We will present to the City for review and refinement before developing final campaign designs for production. Designs will be devel- oped in a manner that can be updated to fit the size parameters of the desired media platforms. 25E -14 Task 3C: Print Management Alta manages all aspects of working with print vendors to see to high- quality final products, including transferring print -ready files, providing detailed specifications, and reviewing electronic and hard -copy proofs. To produce the highest quality, most cost - effective printed products, Alta will research reputable local vendors and solicit at least three print bids, We will review estimated costs to select a vendor(s) that will be appropriate for producing printed materials for this campaign. Task 3D: Media Placement Alta will modify the campaign graphics for each selected channel and format as dictated by the media vendor. We will work with media vendors to procure space for the campaign graphics in the desired locations and for the pre - determined campaign duration. We will provide payment to the vendor for each media channel, which we will include as part of our monthly invoices to the City. We will also work with vendors to track the effec- tiveness of all marketing materials by keeping and maintaining a running log of: • Number of messages produced • Subject of each message • Number of printings for each message • Total size of audience reached • Total cost and /or donated value Task 3E: Materials Procurement and Distribution Per the Media Deployment Proposal, Alta will research potential vendors for the selected educational collateral and distribute items via the appropriate channels, such as providing helmets at bike rodeos and educational brochures during saturation patrols (discussed in Task 4). Task 3 Deliverables: Define suite of materials Media Deployment Proposal Draft and final materials Print management Media placement and tracking Material procurement • Material Distribution Publlc EdnCatlon on Bicycle SaPaty I Alta Planning + Design Based on our work for the Pasadena Safe School Zones campaign, we have -a database of media sources, placement costs, and contacts we can use to lumpstart the media deployment effort. TASK 4: DIRECT EDUCATION AND OUTREACH Task 4A: Host League Cycling Instructor Seminar Alta will work with the City and the League of American Bicyclists (LAB) to schedule and host a train -the- trainer seminar to certify up to 12 community members as League of American Bicyclists Cycling Instructors (1 Cls), We have 10 LCIs on staff, including Alta Project Manager Jessie Holzer, and thus are intimately familiar with the steps involved In the certification process. While the LAB will supply an LCI coach to run the seminar, it requires a local contact to serve as Site Facilitator to organize logistics (such as finding an indoor meeting /classroom space, chairs, tables, etc), promote the seminar to interested bicy- clists, and remain in contact with the LCI Coach. We propose a representative from the City or a local non- profit organization serve In this role with support from Alta. Task 46: Bicycle Safety Classroom Presentations The Alta Team will reach out to elementary schools in the Santa Ana Unified School District to schedule one bicycle safety classroom presen- tation at 20 middle elementary schools, reaching approximately 5,000 students. Safe Moves specializes in delivering bicycle safety instruc- tion to children in a range of socio- economic and cultural backgrounds and will deliver lesson plans relevant to the diverse neighborhoods in Santa Ana that accommodate differing student abilities and cognitive learning skills. 25E -15 11 Glry of Banta Ana I Alta Planninq * Design We propose that the presentations be directed toward upper grade elementary school students (grades four through six) as children in these grades are more likely to ride to school. The presentations will include education on several critical areas: • General bicycle safety • Skills necessary to make smart choices in traffic • Recognition and avoidance of common traffic collisions • Safe behaviors In and around vehicles including cars, buses, trains and trucks • Understanding driver behaviors Task 4C: Bicycle Rodeos The Alta Team will schedule bicycle rodeos at four of the elementary schools receiving class- room presentations. Rodeos will be interactive, on -bike simulations allowing students to experi- ence "real world" traffic situations and challenges In a controlled environment. Lesson plans will be designed to be age - appropriate and adminis- tered by trained safety Instructors, Lesson plans for the bicycle rodeos will Include but will not limited to: • Safe places to ride • Traffic signs and signals • Rights and responsibilities of bicyclists • Recognition and avoidance of common bicycle collisions Use of bike racks, bike lanes, bike paths, bike trails Skills (stopping, balancing, braking, left shoulder check, scanning) Explanation /simulation of traffic environment (infrastructure) Understanding of driver behaviors Prior to participating in the rodeos, Safe Moves will conduct bike safety checks for tires, brakes, seats, and handlebars. A limited number of loaner bicycles and helmets will be provided for those students who do not have access to their own. Task 4D: Bicycle Helmet Fitting and Distribution One thousand helmets, procured as part of this program, will be distributed and fitted at the four bicycle rodeos. Safe Moves will provide instruc- tion to students and parents on how to properly fit and adjust their bicycle helmets so that they may use this training in fitting helmets in the future, Additional helmet seminars could be conducted as part of the classroom presentations and satu- ration patrols if there is a surplus of helmets, A bicycle rodeo will teach children age appropriate bicycle behavior and help promote bicycle safety and Increase usage. 12 25E -16 Task 4E: Saturation Patrols with Santa Ana Police Department Alta will conduct up to four saturation patrols with the Santa Ana Police Department to enforce laws related to bicycling, educate the public on bicycle safety, and facilitate communication between law enforcement officers and the general public. Many Immigrant populations shy away from interactions with police officers, so the satura- tion patrols may provide an opportunity to ease tensions regarding law enforcement. We assume saturation patrols differ from regular enforcement by bringing officers into the community In a non - intimidating way, such as by staffing a booth at a popular location and distributing informational materials and safety giveaways. Patrols could take place along popular bicycling routes or off - street on bike paths and trails, We recommend distrib- uting a portion of the collateral during the satura- tion patrols to attract the attention of passers -by. The Alta Team will work with the Santa Ana Police Department to enforce bicycling laws, educate the public on Bicycle safety, and facilitate communication between law enforcement officers and the general public, Public CAUCatlon on Bicycle Safety I Alta Planning + Design Task 4F: Evaluation Surveys At the end of the campaign, after both media placement and direct education has been completed, Alta will disseminate an online evaluation survey through the 20 schools that participated In the classroom presentations as a requirement of receiving the train ings, The survey will be targeted at parents, with the goal of deter- mining any students who were'saved by a helmet' by asking questions about collision Involvement and changes in helmet usage as a result of the campaign. We will also partner with the school administration staff to identify and recognize students saved by helmets.

Pedestrian counts, speed surveys, vehicle classifications (using machines) and /or other services may also be requested as part of this contract. For services not specifically listed, a price for such services will be agreed to, if requested. From the proposals received, up to two firms will be selected. The City will enter into an agreement with each firm. As traffic counting needs are identified, they will be distributed among the selected firm based upon each firm's ability to meet the needs of the particular study. The City reserves the right to assign the work in any manner which will best serve the City's interests. A. IMPLEMENTATION 1.

CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with the Orange County Water District, subject to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney, for a limited -term partial basin equity assessment exemption on water produced by Well 32 above the Basin Pumping Percentage. Well 32, located in Morrison Park, is a City asset currently valued at $3.5 million. However, this groundwater well was taken offline seven years ago due to water nitrate levels that exceeded the California Department of Public Health established maximum level of 45 mg /L. Approval of this recommended action will allow the City to complete the necessary capital improvements and bring the well back into service. The Public Works Agency operates a system of groundwater wells that produce high - quality, potable water from the Orange County groundwater basin. The primary responsibility of the Orange County Water District (OCWD) is to manage conjunctive use of this vast groundwater basin under northern and central Orange County, which supplies water to more than 20 cities and water agencies and serves more than 2.3 million Orange County residents. In accordance with OCWD pumping limits, roughly 70 percent of the water supplied to Santa Ana residents and businesses comes from this groundwater pumping. All agencies that produce water from the groundwater basin pay a Replenishment Assessment (RA) fee to OCWD based on the quantity of water produced. If an agency pumps beyond the limits established by OCWD, a Basin Equity Assessment (BEA) fee is added. The BEA is much higher than the RA and is meant to penalize an agency for over- pumping. Although water produced from groundwater pumping is more cost effective than imported sources, OCWD imposes pumping limits in order to manage the limited supply of potable groundwater. 251 -1 Agreement with OCWD for Partial Basin Equity Assessment Exemption January 20, 2015 Page 2 In March 2013 the City retained Tetra Tec, Inc., to study options for nitrate treatment and provide a cost analysis for restoring the service of Well 32. After the evaluation was completed, a water blending alternative was recommended. The blending alternative was the most cost effective and is one of the technologies currently accepted by the California Department of Public Health. The estimated capital cost for these improvements is $4.6 million, which includes well rehabilitation, well house reconstruction, new electrical and mechanical appurtenances, and construction of a water transmission line to the nearby Garthe Pump Station. On May 8, 2013, the City requested that the Orange County Water District (OCWD) consider and support the implementation of the high nitrate mitigation and remediation of Well 32 through a partial exemption from payment of the BEA. Under the proposed agreement, OCWD would remove pumping limits on this more cost - effective water source (i.e. pump more than 70 percent) and partially exempt the City from BEA fees. It is anticipated that the City will fully recover the estimated $4.6 million capital cost within a four -year period. The benefits of bringing Well 32 back into service also include providing an additional groundwater source to the City's water system, allowing the City to distribute groundwater pumping throughout the water system, and reducing wear and tear on other City groundwater wells. On July 24, 2013, the OCWD Board directed their staff to prepare an agreement with the City for a Basin Equity Exemption for Well 32 for future Board action. The OCWD Board will be considering this agreement in its regularly scheduled meeting on January 21, 2015. Staff is recommending execution of this agreement in order to realize the significant investment already made in Well 32, restore it to service, and continue to utilize and benefit from the asset. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 Community Facilities & Infrastructure; Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy C (invest resources and technology to extend the service life of existing infrastructure to protect the City's investment and support a high quality of life standard). ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action 251 -2 Agreement with OCWD for Partial Basin Equity Assessment Exemption January 20, 2015 Page 3 FISCAL IMPACT Although Water Enterprise Capital Improvement funds have not been allocated for this project in the FY 14/15 Capital Improvement Program, funds to proceed with the design and preparation of plans, estimated at $620,000, are available in the Water Enterprise Capital Construction Fund (Account 06617647- 66301). Funding for the construction of these improvements will be allocated in future Capital Improvement Program budgets. Fr d Mousavipour Executive Director Public Works Agency FM /NS /RR Exhibits: 1.

RECITALS A. Approximately two - thirds of all drinking water currently used within northern and central Orange County is provided from groundwater by OCWD. Inasmuch as Orange County is located in a semi -arid area, it is essential that all reasonable efforts be put forth to protect the quality of groundwater supplies and to provide for maximum utilization of that resource. B. The United States Environmental Protection Agency ( "USEPA ") and the State of California Department of Public Health ( "CDPH ") have adopted primary drinking water standards, which include limits for nitrate. Water containing nitrate concentrations in excess of 45 mgL (expressed as NO3) have been determined by USEPA and CDPH not to be suitable for municipal or domestic purposes without treatment. C. The City operates a public water system for the purpose of delivering potable water to its customers, and obtains most of its water by pumping groundwater from wells for delivery to its customers. The City, as well as other groundwater producers within the boundaries of OCWD, has lost the use of some of its groundwater wells due to the presence of nitrate in quantities exceeding USEPA and CDPH drinking water standards. Santa Ana Well No. 32 ( "Well 32 "), located at Morrison Park near the intersection of Memory Lane and Westwood Avenue in Santa Ana, has the capacity to produce up to 4,000 acre feet per year of groundwater; however, the City has discontinued production of groundwater from Well 32 in 2005 due to its low operational efficiencies and high nitrate concentrations. D. The City recently retained an engineering consulting firm to evaluate and recommend alternatives to reduce high nitrate levels in the water produced by Well 32. After evaluating alternatives, the City has decided to pursue a water blending alternative as the most economical option. The City proposes to blend high nitrate water produced by Well 32 with low nitrate water produced by City of Santa Ana Wells 36 and 39 ( "Wells 36 and 39 ")in the reservoirs located at the John Garthe Pump Station Complex. The blending alternative mitigates the high nitrate levels and allows the City to utilize the groundwater pumping capacity of Well 32 and place the well back in to service (the "Project "). The City's preliminary cost estimate for the Project is $4,600,000 which includes $920,000 in contingencies (the "Project Cost"). The City and OCWD will revisit the Project Costs once the construction bids are received to ensure the program financials are consistent with this Agreement. OCWD has determined that the City's Exhibit 1 130022499 -0003 2.1 a03/29 84874 /l2 251-5 848745.1 conduct of the Project will remove contaminants from the groundwater basin and increase available groundwater supplies within OCWD's boundaries. E. The Legislature of the State of California has vested in OCWD the statutory responsibility to manage, regulate, replenish and to protect the quality of the groundwater supplies within the boundaries of OCWD. F. In April of each year, the Board of Directors of OCWD acts in accordance with Section 31.5 of the Orange County Water District Act ( "OCWD Act ") to find, determine and establish the basin production percentage (the "BPP "), and sets basin equity assessments (each, a "BEA ") for each producer within OCWD for the period from July lst through June 30th of the next succeeding year. G. Section 2.6.(1.) of the OCWD Act authorizes OCWD to enter into an agreement with the owner operating a groundwater production facility within OCWD's boundaries to increase the production of groundwater in lieu of water from an alternative non - tributary source for the purpose of removing contaminants or pollutants from the groundwater basin, and paying from OCWD funds that portion of the cost of groundwater production that will encourage the production for beneficial use of the polluted or contaminated groundwater that is impairing the quality of the water supplies within OCWD. H. OCWD and the City mutually desire to enter into this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.6.(1.) of the OCWD Act to set forth the specific terms and conditions under which the City will conduct the Project and remove nitrate - impaired groundwater from the Orange County groundwater basin by producing groundwater from Well 32 and blending that groundwater with non - impaired groundwater produced from the Wells 36 and 39 for ultimate distribution to City customers for potable beneficial uses, with the City recovering the Project Cost by means of a partial exemption of that water from the payment of the BEA. OCWD and they City understand and agree that this Agreement does not and cannot become effective unless and until the City files a petition for a partial exemption from the BEA of the water produced from Well 32, and the Board of Directors of OCWD approves such a partial BEA exemption, in accordance with Section 38.1 of the OCWD Act. EXECUTORY AGREEMENTS NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the facts recited above and the covenants, conditions and promises contained herein, and subject to this Agreement taking effect in accordance with Section 5 below, OCWD and the City hereby agree as follows: SECTION 1. LIMITED TERM NITRATE REMOVAL PROJECT 1.1. Once the Project has been constructed, the Project Costs have been reviewed to ensure they are consistent with this agreement, and the City has filed with OCWD a petition pursuant to Section 38.1 of the OCWD Act (as outlined in Section 5), this Agreement will be implemented in the first fiscal year after the Project is complete, beginning July 1" of that year, and last for up to six fiscal years through June 30th of the last year (the "Project Term "). During the Project Term, the City may produce groundwater in an amount equal to the BPP for that given year, plus additional groundwater production from Well 32, provided that all of the City of Santa Ana Agreement XX..I a08/02/13 -2- xxxxx.' 251 -6 groundwater production above the BPP during the Project Term shall be produced solely from Well 32 in order to receive partial exemption set forth in Paragraph 2.5 below. 1.2. In order to obtain the partial exemption set forth in Paragraph 2.5 below, the City shall blend all groundwater produced from Well 32 with groundwater produced from Well 36 and 39 in such proportions that the blended groundwater does not exceed the primary drinking water standard for nitrate established by USEPA and CDPH, and the City shall deliver the blended groundwater to its customers or to City facilities for potable beneficial uses. 1.3. The City shall be responsible for all costs incurred in the operation and maintenance of Well 32, Well 36, Well 39, and all ancillary facilities used for the blending of groundwater produced from such wells and the distribution of that blended groundwater to City customers or facilities for potable beneficial use, including but not limited to labor, materials and power. 1.4. The City shall take out and maintain in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement comprehensive general liability insurance in an amount not less than $2 million per occurrence, for bodily injury, death and property damage, naming OCWD as an additional insured under such policy. An endorsement evidencing this insurance coverage shall be furnished to OCWD prior to the City filing with OCWD a petition pursuant to Section 38.1 of the OCWD Act (as outlined in Section 5). If the City is, or becomes, partially or fully self - insured for its public liabilities, a letter executed by the City's Mayor or City Manager stating the City's self - insured status and acknowledging its responsibility to respond to the indemnification of OCWD as provided in Paragraph 5.5 below, may be furnished in lieu of the insurance endorsement. The City shall provide written notice to OCWD of any change in the City's insured or self - insured status during the Project Term within 30 days of the effective date of such change. SECTION 2. PROJECT TERM BASIN EQUITY ASSESSMENT AND REPLENISHMENT ASSESSMENT PAYMENTS 2.1. The City shall file water production statements and a basin equity assessment statement in strict compliance with Sections 29(a) and 31.50) of the OCWD Act, respectively, for all groundwater produced by the City during the Project Term, including all groundwater produced from Well 32, Well 36, and Well 39. 2.2. On or before the 15th day of each month, during the Project Term, the City shall file with OCWD a monthly report reflecting the quantity of groundwater produced by Well 32 through the end of the preceding calendar month, and the total quantity of groundwater produced by Well 36 and Well 39 to date (through the end of the preceding calendar month) during the Project Term (a "Monthly Project Production Report"). 2.3. Concurrently with the filing of the City's basin equity assessment report pursuant to Section 31.50) of the OCWD Act, the City shall file with OCWD a statement, verified by a written declaration under penalty of perjury, setting forth the total amount of groundwater produced from Well 32 during the Project Term (the "Project Production Statement "). City of Santa Ana Agreement ...t aoaio2n3 -3- xxxxx. 251 -7 2.4. The City shall pay the replenishment assessment and additional replenishment assessment levied and imposed pursuant to Sections 27 and 27.1 of the OCWD Act on all groundwater produced by the City during the Project Term, including all groundwater produced from Well 32, Well 36 and Well 39, in accordance with Section 29(a) of the OCWD Act. 2.5. To the extent that the City's production of groundwater during the Project Term does not exceed an amount equal to the BPP plus additional groundwater produced from Well 32, and all of the groundwater produced during the Project Term in excess of the BPP was produced from Well 32, the City shall be exempt during the Project Term from paying the basin equity assessment or any surcharge on such groundwater production above the BPP from Well 32 during the Project Term to allow the City to recoup the Project Cost, as described in the Attached Exhibit A attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall pay the applicable basin equity assessment and any surcharge for the following: 2.5.1. The City shall pay the applicable basin equity assessment and surcharge on all groundwater produced by the City during the Project Term that exceeds an amount equal to the BPP plus additional groundwater produced from Well 32; and 2.5.2. The City shall pay the applicable basin equity assessment and surcharge on all groundwater produced by the City during the Project Term in excess of the BPP, if such groundwater in excess of the BPP is produced from any water production facility other than Well 32.

Import water is also obtained from several Metropolitan Water District (MWD) connections. Some of the City's wells produce groundwater with elevated nitrate levels, including Well No. 32. The City has developed a Nitrate Blending Plan and mixes the high nitrate ground water with the low nitrate groundwater at the reservoir. Per the Nitrate Blending Plan the City reports the results of weekly and quarterly monitoring to the Department of Public Health comparing the nitrate level from each of the wells as well as the nitrate level leaving the City's Walnut and Garthe reservoirs. Well No. 32 has been inactive for the past five to six years due to low operating efficiencies and high nitrate levels. The purpose of the project is to review the nitrate levels that are present at Well No. 32 and evaluate alternatives for either treatment or blending of the water into the City's distribution system. The space requirements and site constraints are also considerations. An estimate of probable construction and operation costs will be prepared for the project alternatives in order to determine the best value project for the City. The recommended project will also include the goals of minimizing chemical usage and/or waste discharge and selecting processes that are easy to operate and maintain for the City staff. The following alternatives are considered in the study: 1) no action, 2) blending in the distribution system at the following locations: Garthe Reservoir, Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility (blending Well No. 32 water into the well water from the City's easterly sources), or 3) utilizing treatment technologies to reduce the nitrate levels located either on -site at Morrison Park or at Garthe Reservoir. In addition to the nitrate mitigation, the study also includes the following: cost estimate for rehabilitation of the well, conceptual plan and cost for removing the existing vault and constructing a building over the well to improve access and replacing the existing MCC cabinet (that has been previously flooded). 1.1 Scope of Work The project scope of work includes the following key tasks 1. Review of the City's Nitrate Blending Plan, available water quality data from the City for Well No. 32, Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility and Garthe Reservoir as well as the reports submitted to the Department of Public Health. 2. Review of the construction as- builts for Well No. 32, the Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility and Garthe Reservoir, as well as, the latest street improvement, water and/or sewer plans for Bristol Street, Westwood Avenue and Memory Lane (to determine if there is an available utility corridor for a new pipeline). 3. Review of the Well Report of the completion of the well and history of the groundwater soundings taken by the City for Well No. 32.

Budgetary costs for each of the alternatives shall be prepared. 6. Since the well has been out of service for the last five to six years, the City desires to include an estimated cost to rehabilitate the well. 7. Pump Design: Tetra Tech will perform an evaluation of the hydraulics and review the existing well pump design and provide a recommendation for the pump design and motor horsepower. Tetra Tech will prepare an engineer's estimate of probable constriction costs for the new well pump and motor. 8. Building Modification: Tetra Tech will review the existing underground vault design and then provide a recommendation for modifying the current structure and adding an aboveground building with a stairwell down to the well pump. We are assuming that the new building will be a concrete block building with a gabled roof, similar to other City facilities. 9. MCC Replacement: The existing MCC was previously flooded. The new MCC and PLC panels will be located within the proposed building. Tetra Tech will perform a site visit to review the existing panels and instrumentation at the site.

WELL INFORMATION 2.1 Well Description Well No. 32 is located near the entrance to Morrison Park, approximately 45 feet east of Westwood and 200 feet south of Corrigan Street, as depicted in Figure 1. The well was drilled in 1984 to a depth of approximately 1,060 feet below ground surface (bgs). The total length of screened interval is 290 feet. The static water level is at 116 feet and the pumped level is at 228 feet below ground. The reported well yield is approximately 2,127 gpm as measured in 2001. The well is equipped with a vertical turbine pump rated for a capacity of 2,700 gpm with a 300 hp motor. The manufacturer and model number of the pump is Vertiline, V85- 70529. Well No. 32 operated for a period of time and has been out of service since 2004. Well No. 32 Location Map 2.2 Water Quality Data Based on a review of the City's historical water quality data (from 2002 through 2004) for Well No. 32, the nitrate levels varied from about 15 mg/L to 37 mg /L, with an average of 23 mg /L. On November 1, 2012, the City performed a 12 hour water quality sampling test to measure the nitrate levels in the well water as a function of pumping time. Samples were collected for the following time periods: 5, 10, 15, 30 minutes, and then 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12 hour points. While it was expected for the nitrate levels to decrease over time, the test results indicated that the nitrate level remained relatively consistent at about 43 mg/L for the duration of the test.

The reduction in the nitrate level could be accomplished by treatment or various blending alternatives.

PROJECT ALTERNATIVES The alternatives consist of a variety of several options that include the following: 1. No action 2. Blending in the distribution system at the following locations: • Garthe Reservoir • Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility (blending Well No. 32 water into the well water from the City's easterly sources) 3. Utilizing treatment technologies to reduce the nitrate levels located either on -site at Morrison Park or at Garthe Reservoir 3.1 No Action A no action scenario would result in the City operating Well No. 32 as it had in the past. The well would be started and pumped to waste until the nitrate level dropped to acceptable levels before allowing the groundwater to enter the distribution system. The pump to waste time varied based on the concentration of nitrate detected. The City has reported that the pumping time varied as much as 6 to 18 hours. The City would then be discharging anywhere between 900,000 to 2,700,000 gallons of groundwater to waste. Well No. 32 waste flows are piped from the well and discharged to Santiago Creek, located adjacent to Garthe Reservoir. The City must coordinate with Riverview Golf Course located downstream as the City discharges into Serrano Creek which merges downstream with the Santa Ana River. Riverview Golf Course lies within the Santa Ana River and course operations are impacted due to the well discharge. Therefore, the City's operation of Well No. 32 would remain constrained both by the nitrate level in the groundwater and the impacts to the golf course. 3.2 Blending in the Distribution System High - nitrate groundwater is largely managed by blending the groundwater with water from other sources that has lower nitrate concentrations. This approach is common for drinking water treatment in larger municipalities and obviously requires a second, low- nitrate water source. 3.2.1 Blending in Garthe Reservoir The City prepared a nitrate blending and monitoring plan in 2010 for both Garthe and Walnut Reservoirs. One of the potential alternatives is to blend water from Well No. 32 into Garthe Reservoir. The blending plan was reviewed to determine whether it would be feasible to blend Well No. 32 water into the reservoir. Garthe Reservoir site consists of three reservoirs with a total of 16 million gallon storage capacity, Wells 18, 24, 36, and 39 and six booster pumps. The City provides an ongoing nitrate blending treatment process in which high nitrate water from Well No. 18 and Well No. 24 are blended with low nitrate water from Well Nos. 36 and 39. The wells are staged in the SCADA system to utilize the low nitrate wells first (i.e., Well Nos. 36 and 39) followed by the high nitrate wells. The staging of the wells is based on the reservoir level. The control logic in the station's Remote Terminal Unit is programmed to prevent Well 18 and Well 24 from coming on alone (i.e., Well Nos. 36 or 39 have to be running first). Table 3 -1 P:V' 00597 \008ylrngineoing\OS\_We11J2- Nitrate - Mitigation \Dian Report \02text dot 51 .13 3 TETRA TECH CITY OF SANTA ANA Well No. 22 Nitrate Mitigation and Re h a b l i la ti 0-n Study presents the average nitrate levels and flow rates for the wells. Well No. 32 data was based on historical records and the desire of the City to pump at 2,500 gpm. Table 3 -1. Well Nitrate Levels Table 3 -2 presents the worst case scenario of pumping various combinations of wells into Garthe Reservoir and the anticipated nitrate levels. The predicted nitrate levels were calculated from the mass balance of well flow rates and nitrate levels in accordance with the City's 2010 nitrate blending plan. Flow from Well No. 32 was then added to each of the pumping scenarios to determine the impact on the reservoir nitrate level. As indicated below, the addition of Well No. 32 to each of the blending scenarios would increase the total combined nitrate levels in Garthe Reservoir anywhere from 1.6 mg/L to 4.8 mg/L. Although the combined nitrate levels in the reservoir would increase, they would still meet the City's goal of achieving less than half the MCL. The 2010 blending plan indicates that the actual 3 -year average nitrate level was about 11 mg/L, which was less than most of the operating scenarios in the blending plan. If Well No. 32 flows were to be included, it would probably increase the actual level anywhere from 2 to 5 mg/L. Table 3 -2. Garthe Reservoir - Worst Case Scenario Pumping Combinations In order to convey the flows to Garthe Reservoir, approximately 3,250 feet of new pipeline would need to be constructed as shown on Figure 1. From Well No. 32 the new pipeline would head southerly in Westwood Avenue then west in Memory Lane and then turn south on Bristol Street terminating at Garthe Reservoir. Summarized below are design issues that would need to be addressed in regards to this alignment selection: PAP00599 \0086\Hngm ,1ng \05\ We11-32- Nitrate- Mitlgatlon\Deaft Report\02textdoax - 6 - TETRA TECH 251 -24 CITY OF SANTA ANA Well No. 32 Nitrate M i t I g a ti on and Rehabilitation Study Bristol Street: • Six lanes (three lanes in each direction, with a raised median in some portions) with heavy traffic with a combination of commuter, local resident, and school traffic Phased construction across the signalized intersection at Bristol Street and Memory Lane • Santiago Creek crossing — there is a bridge there the pipe will either need to be bored and jacked under the creek or hung from the bridge • Bristol is congested with existing utilities: — Sewer — Water — Underground dry utilities (gas, electric, telephone, cable) — Storm Drain • Provisions for maintaining access to a church on west side of street need to be provided • No residences fronting street • Commercial area at the intersection of Bristol and Memory Lane Memory Lane: Four lanes (two lanes in each direction) Existing utilities consist of: — Existing sewer and water within the street — Overhead utilities • Residential area but no residences front street Westwood Avenue: • Two travel lanes, one in each direction • Overhead utilities • Provisions for maintaining access to a church and a public park need to be provided The size of the pipeline is dependent on how the Garthe reservoirs are used for blending. There are two options. The first is to send flows during start-up to Garthe Reservoir until the half the MCL goal is achieved and then divert the flow back into the distribution system. The second is to send all flows to Garthe Reservoir and then use the pump station at Garthe Reservoir to pump back into the system. The City has stated that the area of the distribution system Well No. 32 discharges into historically experiences low service pressures when the well is not operating. Operating the well into the system improves the service pressure delivered to the City's customers. The City would prefer to keep the well connected to the distribution system within Westwood Avenue. However, Well No. 18, located at the Garthe Reservoir site is in decline. Well No. 18 was drilled in 1956 and production has lessened over time with the City estimating that the well probably only has about 10 years of useful life remaining. Upon the loss of Well No. 18, the City could replace the ground water flows that went into Garthe Reservoir with the ground water pumped from Well No. 32. Summarized below are the design issues that will need to be considered for each alternative: Alternative 1— Utilize Garthe for Blending Only There is a hydraulic grade difference of 140 feet between the distribution system (272 feet) and the Garthe Reservoir high water level (132 feet). This impacts the operation of the well pump. 2. Well pump horsepower of 300 hp with a design flow rate of 2,500 gpm.

Pressure surges will be created as the ground water discharge is diverted from Garthe Reservoir to the distribution system. In order to mitigate pressure surges the following will need to be considered: Surge pressure anticipator valve to discharge to the waste to discharge pipeline A surge tank if the pressure fluctuations are so severe a surge anticipator valve does not satisfactorily mitigate the fluctuations Type of valves used for transitions valve — A valve made to throttle such as a ball or plug type valve — Motor operated valve electric actuator with valve opening and closing speed control 4. The line to Garthe needs provisions to keep it full at all times. • Goose neck at the Garthe reservoir site A pressure reducing /sustaining valve located at the Garthe reservoir site (if back pressure is also required to keep the pump operating on its curve) 5. A variable frequency drive should be considered for control of the well, maintain a constant discharge pressure of 65 psi. This will allow the pump to discharge between 800 gpm and 2,700 gpm before locking on a speed curve. This may allow the City to operate the well for longer durations instead of shutting off at high discharge pressure due to low system demands as would happen with a constant speed pump. 6. Pipe sizing based on: Maintaining a velocity of approximately 5 feet per second, which is an industry standard and recommended for pumping practice. This results in a 16 -inch diameter pipe Utilizing the pipe itself to increase headless so that a pressure sustaining valve is not required but at the same time the pump stays on its pumping curve. A 12 -inch pipe would result in an increase of headless and keep the pump on the pump curve. The resulting velocity in the 12 -inch pipe is approximately 9 feet per second. This is velocity is high compared to the 5 feet per second that typically governs this type of application. However, it is considered reasonable as the use at this velocity is infrequent and temporary (only during well start-up) 7. A provision for routine flushing schedule of the fill line to the Garthe reservoir site will be required to mitigate the potential of the stagnant water losing its chlorine residual and causing a water quality issue. Alternative 2 — Fill Garthe Reservoir 1. Well pump horsepower of 150 hp with a design flow rate of 2,500 gpm. 2. The line to Garthe needs provisions to keep it full at all times. Recommend using a gooseneck similar to what is constructed at the Garthe site to keep the other well fill line full. 3. Results in the ground water being pumped twice; once to storage and then a second to the system. 4. Surge provisions will not be required as the ground water will be pumped directly to storage. 5. Pipe sizing based on maintaining a velocity of approximately 5 feet per second which is an industry standard and recommended for pumping practice. This results in a 16 -inch diameter pipe. 6. Specific pump control is not required (i.e. a variable frequency drive is not required).

The ground water pumped by Well No. 32 would be mixed with ground water with lower nitrate levels from the City's easterly wells. The pressure reducing station currently takes water from the City's higher easterly zone and breaks pressure to serve the lower zone west of the 5 Freeway. The City reports that the ground water from the higher zone has a nitrate level of approximately 10 mg/L. In order to maintain a pumping rate of 2,500 gpm from Well No. 32 a flow rate of 6,100 gpm is required in order to achieve half of the MCL. This results in a net flow rate of 8,600 gpm. The existing pipe size is 16- inches in diameter. This flow rate results in a velocity of 13.7 feet per second; higher than what is typically designed for in the industry. A velocity such as this results in increased pumping costs due to higher head loss in the system and can also begin to cause damage to traditional cement and mortar lining systems. In addition, it is also unknown if the City's system has the capacity to send 6,100 gpm from the higher zone to the lower zone. In lieu of pumping 2,500 gpm from Well No. 32, a lower pumping rate may be selected. Using a velocity of 5 feet per second within the existing 16 -inch pipeline, the required flow rate blending ratio between Well No. 32 and the Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility is 1,400 gpm and 3,600 gpm respectively to achieve a nitrate level of half of the MCL. This results in the production out of Well No. 32 being reduced by over 40% when blending is required. There is also a concern regarding mixing time at this location. The nearest customer to be served by this blended water is located approximately 100 feet from the pressure reducing facility. Without the benefit of a water model of the City's system, it is recommended that the blending of the waters be agitated through the use of a static mixer installed as part of the piping in order to blend the water. The efficacy of this will need to be further studied. In order to convey the flows to the Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility approximately 3,100 feet of new 16 -inch diameter pipeline would need to be constructed as shown on Figure 1. From Well No. 32 the new pipeline would head southerly in Westwood Avenue then east in Memory Lane to the end of Memory Lane alley terminating at the Pressure Reducing Facility. Summarized below are design issues that would need to be addressed in regards to this alignment selection: Memory Lane Alley: Approximately 30 -feet wide Residential area with garage access for many houses. All houses are fronting other streets • Trash collection performed in the alley Existing utilities — 16 -inch water — 30 -inch sewer — Overhead utilities Memory Lane: • Four lanes (two lanes in each direction, transitions to one lane east bound and two lanes west bound at Lowell. Traffic is mostly residential traffic. Raised median with mature trees east of Westwood • Existing utilities — sewer — water — overhead utilities FT0059A0086\9.& in n.,\05 \_We11-32-Nilw, Min,ationT.fl Re,odV)21ax15 1 _2� TETRA TECH CITY OF SANTA ANA Well No, 32 Nitrate Mitigation and Rehabilitation Study • Residential area but no residences front street • Decorative brick cross -walks at Westwood intersection • Concrete intersection at Flower Intersection Westwood: Two travel lanes, one in each direction • Overhead utilities Provisions for maintaining access to a church and a public park need to be provided Summarized below are the design issues that will need to be considered for utilizing the Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility as a blending site: 1. The pressure reducing facility will need to be reconstructed. The facility will need flow control capability in order to deliver the water required to blend the water. The flow at the Pressure Reducing Facility should be a set flow rate. 2. Well pump horsepower of 150 hp with a design flow rate of 1,400 gpm assuming 3,600 gpm of blending water is available from the higher zone. 3. Pressure surges will be created as the ground water discharge is diverted from waste to discharge to the distribution system. In order to mitigate pressure surges the following will need to be considered: Type of valve used for transitions valve: — A valve made to throttle such as a ball or plug type valve — Motor operated valve electric actuator with valve opening and closing speed control slow enough to minimize pressure spikes • A surge tank if the pressure fluctuations are so severe that throttling valves do not satisfactorily mitigate the fluctuations 4. The well pump will also need a flow meter and a variable frequency drive to control flow. The well pump will need to be able to vary should the pressure of the upper zone begin to decline and the pressure sustaining feature of the pressure reducing valves begin to engage to prevent lowering of the pressure in the upper zone. 5. Provide an in -line static mixer to agitate and mix the two water sources. 6. This option from a control standpoint is more complex as the following parameters have to be met: • Half the MCL for nitrate entering the system • Flow control of Well No. 32 and the PRS • Monitoring of nitrates after the static mixer, if half the MCL is not met, then the well will need to be shut down while the pressure reducing station remains live. The pressure reducing station will then have to operate as normal based on meeting demands rather than a flow control station The City will need to confirm that flow can be restricted at the flow control facility to ensure mixing and still meet system demands P:\P00599\0086\E nxering \05\ Well -32 -Nit rate- MitigationOmfl ReVoit \02teztdocx - lo- TETRA TECH 251 -28 Y s a c z: n o' 3AV c m �I z � - F 7:��9 T!p It 251 -29 a e 1 w a W CITY OF SANTA ANA Well No. 32 Nitrate Mitigation and Rehabilitation Study 3.3 Treatment Options Ion exchange (IX) is the most widely used treatment technology for reducing nitrate concentrations at well sites or other points of entry into potable water distribution systems. IX technologies are relatively simple to design, operate and monitor. IX is most suitable for waters with total dissolved solids (TDS) concentrations of less than 500 mg/L. Salts and organics in water will eventually foul IX resins, but many systems operate for 5 to 10 years without requiring resin replacement. The primary disadvantage of these systems is the production and costly disposal of concentrated brines, which can contain high concentrations of sodium chloride, nitrate, sulfate, and arsenate. Brines can be disposed of in sewers where adequate dilution is available, but long -term salinity control in some areas may limit this option. Two options are available for regenerating IX resins and include on -site and off -site regeneration. On -site regeneration requires an aboveground brine storage /brine maker tanks, water softener for brine make -up, brine/backwash discharge pump, air blower system for air block during media regeneration, and backwash conveyance system. Off -site regeneration involves contracting with a company that would slurry out a specific amount of ion exchange resin at a time and transport the resin to a facility to regenerate the resin. At the same time, an equal quantity of regenerated resin would be slurried back into the vessels ready for use. The City indicated that disposal of waste brine to the sewer is not a viable option. In addition, there is a lack of sufficient space at Morrison Park to accommodate the additional regeneration facilities. As a result, the off -site regeneration option was considered as part of the treatment system. Tetra Tech contacted several equipment suppliers to provide equipment sizing for the IX vessels. Based on an assumed nitrate influent concentration of 45 mg /L, a treated water level of 20 mg/L and a well flowrate of 2,500 gpm, approximately 70% (1,786 gpm) of the flow from Well No. 32 would need to be treated by IX. The remaining 714 gpm would be bypassed and blended with the treated water to meet the water quality goal. For off-site regeneration, 12 IX vessels (12 feet diameter each) would be required and would be operated as two trains of six vessels each. There would be approximately 3,600 cubic feet of nitrate resin installed, and 1,200 cubic feet of resin in float. The contract maintenance supplier would slurry out 1,200 cubic feet of resin at a time and transport the resin back to their facility to regenerate the resin. At the same time, 1,200 cubic feet of regenerated resin would be slurried back into the vessels ready for use. A preliminary footprint of the wellhead treatment facilities was prepared and is presented in Figure 2. As indicated, approximately 0.3 acres would be required for the treatment facilities that would include the IX vessels, electrical and control panels and other appurtenances. Based on this layout, there is insufficient room to locate any treatment facilities at Garthe Reservoir. If the treatment facilities are located at Morrison Park, that would require using a portion of the parking lot or the entire tennis court area. It should be noted that this analysis is based on the assumption that Well No. 32 will produce a constant raw water nitrate level of greater than 40 mg /L. However, based on historical records, it is anticipated that the nitrate level will decrease to the 20 - 25 mg/L range.

The project cost estimating was performed using the Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACE) International's cost estimating classification system, which defines five separate classes of cost estimates. For a study or feasibility level report, this is considered a Class 4 estimate, and allows for an accuracy range of -15% to -30% on the low side, and +20% to +50% on the high side. 3.4.1 Capital Costs Construction costs consist of site work, mechanical equipment, filters, pumps, chemical metering equipment, piping, valves, structural, electrical and instrumentation. Bonds and insurance have been included at 2% and contractor's overhead and profit is assumed to be 10 %. A 30% construction cost contingency is included for this planning level stage. The total capital cost includes a 20% cost allotment for preparing engineering plans, specifications, bid and construction management and inspection, technical, incidental permits, survey, geotechnical, legal, and administrative costs. The capital cost for the blending option at Garthe Reservoir (Blending Only) is estimated at $4,650,000. The capital cost for the blending option at Garthe Reservoir (Fill Reservoir) is estimated at $4,580,000. The capital cost for the blending option at Memory Lane Pressure Reducing Facility is estimated at $4,700,000. The capital cost for the nitrate treatment facilities is estimated at $11,700,000. It should be noted that the costs for the well rehabilitation as described in Section 4 have been included in the capital cost estimate for each alternative. Estimates of probable construction costs are contained in Appendix C 3.4.2 Operation and Maintenance Costs Annual Operation and Maintenance Costs (O &M) were prepared and include power, chemicals, labor, and maintenance materials for the treatment facilities. The annual O &M costs for the blending options were not developed because the City currently incurs these costs already and would not be new. A cost for off -site IX resin regeneration by a contracting service is also included in the annual costs. The annual estimated O &M cost is $8.02 million and is contained in Appendix C.

WELL MODIFICATIONS 4.1 Well Head and Piping Modifications Well No. 32 has been inactive since 2004. The first action the City wants to perform is to rehabilitate the well and perform the following: • Chemical rehabilitation Mechanical rehabilitation Well development, testing and water quality sampling A video survey will first be performed to verify the rehabilitation techniques necessary to address the condition of the well casing. Currently, the well head for Well No. 32 is located within a buried vault. The City desires to raise the well head to meet current Department of Public Health recommendations for the construction of potable water wells. The well casing, tubes (sounding, gravel fill line, etc) and a new sanitary seal will need to be constructed to raise the well head to grade. The discharge piping will be reconstructed. Depending on the alternative selected will dictate the operational flexibility required to be designed at the well. It is anticipated the following new equipment will be required: Pump and motor • Piping Isolation valves • Check valve Motor operated throttling valves (one for discharge to blending site and one for discharge to system) Flow meter Surge protection (assuming a surge tank) • Nitrate monitoring equipment • Sodium hypochlorite disinfection system • Site improvements • Landscaping 4.2 Building Modifications One the well head is raised to finish grade, the underground vault will be demolished and a new building constructed to protect the well head and piping. The well is located at the entrance of Morrison Park. The building will match other City water facility buildings located within the City and will incorporate the following: Concrete slab -on -grade floor Concrete masonry unit walls and foundation Gabled roof Steel roof framing P:m00597a0WEnbn ring\os\ we11-32- Him. oe >nna+s.renme•eaePera02mxt.&251 1 TETRA TECH CITY OF SANTA ANA Well No. 32 Nitrate Mitigation and Rehabllilation Study Sound attenuation • Entry doors Roof hatch • Ventilation 4.3 Electrical Equipment Replacement The electrical equipment will be located within the building to protect it from vandalism and weather. The electrical equipment will include: 1. Main switchgear 2. PLC Control Plan 3. Variable Frequency Drive 4. Telemetry 5. Lighting 6, Programming 5. We recommend either Alternatives 1 or 2, blending at Garthe Reservoir. This utilizes the 16 million gallons of storage to blend the water qualities. In addition, depending on operating preferences, the City can decide to continue to use Well No. 32 to augment the pressure in the local area or fill the reservoir. This alternative appears the most practical and cost - effective to achieve the City's desired goal not to waste approximately 2.1 million gallons of water while waiting for the nitrate residual to fall to half of the MCL, maintain the desired pumping capacity of 2,500 gpm at Well No. 32 and minimize impacts to the community at large.

The units are available in three configurations (Simplex, Duplex, and Triplex) and with three packaged options (Plus, Deluxe, and Select). Duplex and triplex configurations have multiple modes of operation to maximize operational flexibility. These units are rugged, pre- engineered units that minimize expensive installation and start-up costs. They require simple utility connections, media loading, and minor configuration for immediate online service. Duplex and triplex configurations are shipped as individual units in order to minimize installation labor while maximizing orientation flexibility. The softener's simple design maximizes the efficiency and repeatability of the unit during the service and regeneration modes in order to provide a truly reliable water treatment unit. Mechanical Description The softener consists of steel pressure vessel(s) that contain C -211 cation resin along with 2 support bed layers. The pressure vessels are sandblasted, lined with an NSF approved material, and painted with a durable epoxy coating. The piping and tank internals are constructed of schedule 80 PVC or Schedule 10, 316L stainless steel. All automatic valves are actuated pneumatically. Adjustable travels stops are included on the service, backwash, rinse outlet, and brine valves in order to set the flows based on system requirements. A relief valve sized for thermal expansion pressure relief is also supplied on each tank. Four structural steel legs, designed to meet International Building Code (IBC) to meet the requirements in 98% of North American installations, support each vessel. All interconnect piping on duplex and triplex systems are by others. A brine pumping and dilution skid is provided. The unit is provided with sch80 PVC piping. A customer supplied brine silo or equivalent supplies a 26% brine solution to the inlet of the brine pumping system. A separate water source (preferably softened water) supplies the dilution side. A CRT series Grundfos vertical pump boosts the 26% brine solution pressure. Two rotameters allow the flow of each fluid to be accurately set for the dilution of the 26% brine solution to desired concentration (6 -10 %). The customer must connect the brine skid to the softener with schedule 80 PVC or similar corrosion resistant material.

For Duplex and Triplex systems, individual Solenoid Panels provide valve control on each additional vessel (Unit B, or, Unit B and Unit Q. The Solenoid Panels contain the solenoid valves and terminal blocks for field wiring connections. High Flow vessels are free standing units (not skid mounted) and will require field wiring (by others) between the Control Panel and Solenoid Panel(s) for Duplex and Triplex systems. A single Control Panel will provide control and monitoring for Simplex, Duplex, and Triplex Filter configurations. The Control Panel is provided complete with a programmable logic controller and operator interface. An S7 -200 Siemens Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Processor, model CPU224XP, is utilized to provide reliable control of the system's operating and safety functions. A Siemens Human Machine Interface (HMI), model TP 177B PN /DP (6" Color Touch Screen), acts as the interface between the operator and the process. An Ethernet module is provided for communication with a SCADA or other control system. A Brine Injection Pump Panel is provided to allow motor control of the Brine Pump. This pump is utilized during the brine intro step of a Regeneration Cycle. Field wiring from the Control Panel to the Brine Injection Pump Panel is required. Control of the Brine Pump is maintained at the Control Panel from the HMI. A green "Pump Running" pilot light is provided on the front of the Brine Injection Pump Panel for run status. Operational Description The Softener has the following Modes of Operation and Regeneration Cycle steps based on the flow configuration and vessel arrangement (Simplex, Duplex, or Triplex configuration): Simplex • Modes of Operation: 3 (Offline, Service, and Regeneration) • Regeneration Cycle Steps: 4 (Backwash, Brine Intro, Slow Rinse, and Fast Rinse) PTI Series Softeners Page 2 Rev. 1, February 2009 S5131 -020 251 -52 SIEMENS EN High Purity Solutions Standard Products Simplex operation consists of one vessel that will run in Service mode.

DISCUSSION Request of the Applicant The John Henry Foundation is requesting approval of several entitlements to allow the expansion of an existing care facility. Specifically, the applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to allow the expansion of an existing care home facility, a variance from Sections 41 -249, 41 -251 and 41- 254 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) to reduce the required building setbacks, and from Section 41 -610 to allow a front yard fence that exceeds the maximum height of three feet. EXHIBIT A 31A-3 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014-08 December 8, 2014 Page 2 Proiect Location and Site Description The proposed project site consists of two existing parcels located on North Susan Street between First and Fifth Streets. The northern parcel, located at 403 North Susan Street, is approximately 39,000 square feet in size and is home to The Jahn Henry Foundation State licensed adult residential care facility. This site contains seven buildings: five residential structures that range in size from 1,072 to 2,340 square feet (7,275 total square feet for all five residential structures); with the remaining two buildings consisting of the administrative office and meeting room functions and total 991 square feet. The southern parcel, located at 325 South Susan Street, is approximately 19,200 square feet in size and contains two single- family residences. These two structures are 1,747 and 2,095 square feet in size and will be incorporated into the existing care home village. The project site is surrounded by commercial uses to the north and east, multiple- family to the south and east, and single - family residences to the west (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3). Proiect Background The existing care home village located at 403 North Susan was approved in 1970 through Variance No, 1970 -21. This variance allowed the conversion of six existing single - family residences to "small family care homes," with one or two -car garages with a maximum occupancy of five persons per structure, for a total of 30 residents. In 2003, The John Henry Foundation purchased the site and obtained a certificate of occupancy to operate the existing care home facility. In 2011, the Foundation purchased the two homes south of the existing facility at 325 South Susan Street with a desire to expand their housing and support services to provide for those with special needs and /or developmental disabilities. Proiect Description The applicant proposes to expand the existing care home facility, which serves adult men and women with special needs, by incorporating the two single- family residences to the south into the existing campus. As part of the expansion proposal, both exterior and interior improvements will be made. These include a redesign of the site to improve vehicular and pedestrian access, architectural enhancements to two buildings, and interior Improvements to all of the structures to make them consistent with the program operations of the Foundation. If approved, the care home village will include a total of eight individual buildings, This includes five residential structures from the existing approved care home facility, the incorporation of two additional residential structures on the south parcel, and the existing office building. The office will also be expanded to approximately 1,800 square feet in size to replace the existing modular structure on the site (Exhibit 4). 31A-4 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014-07 & VA No, 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 3 The proposed facility will comply with the City's parking standards. The zoning code requires one space for every three beds for a care home use plus three spaces per 1,000 square feet for office uses. Based on the proposed 42 resident capacity and 1,800 square feet of office area, a total of 20 parking spaces are required with 21 parking spaces provided. The primary vehicular access to the site will be from the south driveway, with the required parking located towards the rear of the property. The required trash /recycling enclosure and loading area will also be located adjacent to the parking area. Due to the nature of the care home service population, meals for the residents are provided daily in the dining room located within Building 5. In addition, the one and two -car garages that were converted without permits are proposed to be formally converted into common space such as a laundry room, recreation /exercise room, office and storage. In some cases, the garage has been reconfigured to provide additional bedrooms and common area for the residence of the individual units. Each residential structure will be licensed to provide supportive housing for a maximum of six adult residents (Exhibit 5). The two residential structures proposed to be incorporated into the campus will be enhanced to meet the City's Design Standards, including the rehabilitation of the exterior of the structures. Building 5 exterior rehabilitation includes reintroducing Craftsman architectural features into the front porch, the addition of alternate building materials, new single -hung wood windows on the front elevation, and wood window trim (Exhibit 6). A new six -foot high decorative block wall is proposed along a portion of the south property line that will be enhanced with landscape vine pockets. In addition, a six -foot high decorative wrought iron fence and gate is proposed in the front yard along Susan Street, with a two -foot landscape buffer between the property line and the fence (Exhibits 7). The proposed care home village will meet or exceed most provisions of the Two - Family Residence (R2) standards and the care home parking requirements with the exception of the following: General Plan and Zoning Consistency The General Plan land use designation for the site is Low Density Residential (LR -7), which primarily allows for lower density residential development and uses such as care facilities, at a maximum density of seven units per acre. The proposed project is consistent with this General Plan land use designation. 31A-5 Existing (feet) Proposed (feet) Reouired (feet) Front yard 17.6 17.6 20 Rearyard 10 10 15 Building Separation 10 10 15 Front Yard Fence 6 6 3 General Plan and Zoning Consistency The General Plan land use designation for the site is Low Density Residential (LR -7), which primarily allows for lower density residential development and uses such as care facilities, at a maximum density of seven units per acre. The proposed project is consistent with this General Plan land use designation. 31A-5 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 4 The zoning for the site is Two - Family Residence (R2) zoning district. The R2 designation is a residential zone that allows single and two- family residential land uses and neighborhood serving uses such as limited adult and child care facilities. The proposed use is consistent with the zoning designation. Protect Analvsts The applicant is requesting approval of two discretionary applications in order to allow the expansion of the existing care facility. A conditional use permit is needed to expand the existing John Henry Foundation care facility to incorporate two existing residential structures to the south. This will allow the applicant to provide services to 12 additional special needs adults.. Conditional Use Permit Conditional use permits are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC, and may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis which, in turn, forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. 31A-6 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 5 The project will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the community. Expanding the current care home will provide additional housing and support services for those in need in the community. As part of the expansion, the site will be improved with additional open space, decorative wrought iron fencing and other aesthetic improvements to create a pleasant environment for the care home residents as well as the surrounding neighborhood. Further, the care home will provide a safe and nurturing environment for people living with schizophrenia spectrum disorders that might otherwise be without housing and key support services. The expansion of the care home and support services to serve 12 additional residents will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area as the facility is located within an area of the City that is predominantly residential in nature. The John Henry Foundation care home provides services to care for some of the most vulnerable members of society, in a well maintained and supportive environment. Finally, the project design and ongoing site management will mitigate any negative or adverse impacts created by the use that could otherwise affect the health, safety, or general welfare of the surrounding neighborhood and businesses. The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area; but instead will provide a well maintained and operated service to the community. The expanded care home would include improvement to the property and streetscape including new decorative fencing, additional landscaping, and architectural enhancements. In addition, a number of the care home residents attend local colleges and volunteer at a number of community locations contributing the overall community. The use of the site as a secured care home, in conjunction with the improvements that will be made to the site, will enhance the economic viability of the area. • The use will be in compliance with all regulations and provisions of Chapter 41 (Zoning Code) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. Site improvements are proposed to the parking lot and on -site circulation that will bring the site into compliance with the Zoning Code. The remaining items that are not in compliance with the Zoning Code are intended to be addressed by the requested variances for setbacks and the front yard fence. The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan, but rather support its goals. Goal 1 of the Land Use Element encourages uses that promote a balance of land uses that address basic community needs. Goal 2 encourages uses that enhance the City's economic and fiscal viability, The care home expansion will further these goals as the care home expansion includes physical improvements to enhance the property, thereby contributing to the overall integrity of the neighborhood. Housing Element Goal 2 seeks to provide a diversity of quality housing, affordability levels, and living experiences that accommodate Santa Ana's residents and workforce of all household types, income levels, and age groups to foster an inclusive community. Goal 4 seeks adequate housing opportunities and support services for people with disabilities, and people needing emergency, transitional or supportive housing. 31A-7 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 6 Variances from Setback Standards (Variance No. 2_0.14 -_07 The applicant is requesting a variance from Sections 41 -249, 41 -251 and 41 -254 of the S.A.M.0 to allow a reduction in front yard and rear yard setbacks as well as the building separation requirements in order to accommodate the proposed expansion project. More specifically, approval of the variance will recognize the location of the existing buildings and allow the existing 17 foot, six inch to 19 foot, six inch front yard setbacks to remain. In addition, relief is requested from the 15 -foot rear yard setback to allow a rear yard setback of 10 feet for Building 5, as well as relief from the 15 -foot separation requirement between Buildings 1 and 8 which is only 10 feet. Variance requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC. Variance requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That there exists a special circumstance related to the property, such as size, shape, topography, location or surroundings. • That the granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. • That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public or surrounding property. • That the granting of the variance will not adversely affect the General Plan. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the variance. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information, staff has prepared the following analysis, which forms the basis for the recommendation contained In this report. In analyzing the variance requests staff must be able to show that findings can be made that support the criteria listed above. The project site has a special circumstance related to its size, shape and location. The property is located just north of First Street on Susan Street and is bound by existing development. The existing structures on the subject lot were originally constructed prior to 1970 in their existing locations, thus creating challenges in reconfiguring the site for expansion. The overall project site will be upgraded to comply with the Citywide Design Guidelines and will comply with the development standards set forth in Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code including parking, trash enclosure, and open space. 31A-8 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 7 The granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. Allowing a reduction in the front and rear yard setbacks as well as the building separation standard will accommodate the placement of the existing buildings and will allow the owner the ability to develop the property with a care home facility that is compatible with the Two - Family Residence (R2) zoning district. Compliance with the setback standards would result in portions of the existing structures to be demolished, which would reduce the feasibility of the proposed expanded care home and impact the property rights of the owner. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public or surrounding properties as the buildings and site have been designed to comply with all applicable development standards except for the front and rear yard setbacks and building separation standard. The expanded office building, to be built in the center of the campus, along with the related site improvements and landscaping, will enhance this property as well as the surrounding properties. The rehabilitation of the two residential structures at 325 Susan Street, by reintroducing Craftsman architectural features such as decorative porch piers, wood window trim and wood siding accents at the eaves, will enrich the street elevation and ensure the project is architecturally compatible with the adjacent neighborhood. Finally, the project will not adversely affect the general plan as care facilities are a compatible use In the Low Density Residential General Plan land use designation, In addition, the project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. Specifically, Land Use Element Policy 2.10 supports new development which is harmonious in scale and character with the existing development and Policy 3.5 encourages new development that is compatible in scale, and consistent with the architectural style and character of the neighborhood. The existing care facility, in conjunction with the improvements to be made to the site, will be in scale and compatible with the development pattern of the neighborhood. Housing Element Goal 2 seeks to provide a diversity of quality housing, affordability levels, and living experiences that accommodate Santa Ana's residents and workforce of all household types, income levels, and age groups to foster an inclusive community. The John Henry Foundation currently provides housing and support services for special needs and the developmental disabled population. The proposed project will allow the Foundation to expand upon the services they provide. Variance from Front Yard Fence Standards (Variance No. 2014 -08 The applicant is requesting a variance from SAMC Section 41- 610 to allow a six foot high decorative wrought iron fence and entry gates along Susan Street. Currently, three feet is the maximum fence height allowed within the front yard setback. The applicant contends that the increased fence height will allow the John Henry Foundation to provide a more secure environment for their special needs and developmentally disabled residents. 31A-9 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December8, 2014 Page 8 Variance requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC. Variance requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That there exists a special circumstance related to the property, such as size, shape, topography, location or surroundings. • That the granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. • That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public or surrounding property. • That the granting of the variance will not adversely affect the General Plan. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the variance. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information, staff has prepared the following analysis, which forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the variance requests staff must be able to show that findings can be made that support the criteria listed above. • The project site has a special circumstance related to its size, shape, location and surroundings. The property Is located on Susan Street between First and Fifth Streets and Is primarily surrounded by lower density residential development. The increase in the height of the fence is needed in order to allow the property owner the ability to use the facility to its maximum potential and ensure the privacy and safety of its residents. The granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. Allowing relief from the maximum three -foot high front yard fence requirement will allow the owner the ability to develop the property with a care home facility that provides a secure environment and is compatible with the Two - Family Residence (R2) zoning district. Without the proposed six -foot high wrought iron fence, the care home operation and site security would be compromised, which impacts the property rights of the owner. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public or surrounding properties as the building and site have been designed to comply with the majority of the applicable development standards. The applicant is proposing to replace an existing six-foot high chain link fence with a six -foot high decorative wrought iron fence and gate with a landscape buffer along Susan Street to enrich the streetscape and pedestrian walking experience, 31A -10 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 9 The project will not adversely affect the general plan as care facilities and ancillary fencing are a compatible use in the Low Density Residential General Plan land use designation. In addition, the project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. Specifically, Land Use Element Policy 2.10 supports new development which is harmonious in scale and character with the existing development and Policy 3.5 encourages new development that is compatible in scale, and consistent with the architectural style and character of the neighborhood. The proposed fencing for the existing care facility, in conjunction with the improvements to be made to the site, will be in scale and compatible with the development pattern of the neighborhood, Public Notification The project site is located within the Santa Anita Neighborhood Association boundaries. Staff and the project applicant have been in contact with the Neighborhood leaders on numerous occasions in the past. The John Henry Foundation and Neighborhood Improvement staff has attended several Neighborhood Association meetings over the past two years 'to share information regarding the proposed care home expansion. In spring of 2014, Santa Anita neighborhood leaders toured the existing John Henry Foundation Village. City staff also reached out to the owner of the multiple - family property to the south to inform them of the project. The contacts of the Neighborhood Association were notified by mail 10 days prior to this public hearing. The project site itself was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to surrounding property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the project site, as well as concerned citizens listed on the Permanent Notification List. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public. CEQA Analysis In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301 and Section 15332. These exemptions allow a project that includes the rehabilitation and limited expansion of an existing structure as well as infill development on a project site that is no more than five acres in size, is surrounded by urban uses, and is consistent with goals and policies of the City's General Plan. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2013- 29 will be filed for this project. Strategic Plan Alignment Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 3 Economic Development, Objective No. 2 (create new opportunities for business /job growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies) and Goal No. 5 Community Health, Livability, Engagement and Sustainability, Objective No. 3 (facilitate diverse housing opportunities and support efforts to preserve and improve livability in Santa Ana neighborhoods). 31A-1 1 CUP 2014 -49, VA No. 2014 -07 & VA No. 2014 -08 December 8, 2014 Page 10 Conclusion Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -49, Variance No. 2014 -07 and Variance No 2014 -08 as conditioned.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Applicant is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -49 to expand an existing care home facility, Variance No. 2014 -07 to allow a reduction in building setbacks, and Variance No. 2014 -08 to allow a six foot high front yard fence at 325 through 403 North Susan Street. B. Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -49, Variance No. 2014 -07, and Variance No. 2014 -08 came before the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana for a duly noticed public hearing on December 8, 2014, to consider all testimony, written and oral. C. Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -49 has been filed with the City of Santa Ana seeking to allow the expansion of an existing care home facility 1. Section 41- 247.5(b) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code requires a conditional use permit for care homes in the R2 district. 2. This site contains seven buildings: five residential structures, an administrative office, and meeting room functions. A conditional use permit is needed to expand the existing John Henry Foundation care facility to incorporate two existing residential structures to the south. 3. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41 -638 authorizes the Planning Commission to grant a conditional use permit upon making certain findings. Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 1 of 12 31A-26 i. The proposed use will provide a service or facility, which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or the community. The project will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the community. Expanding the current care home will provide additional housing and support services for those in need in the community. As part of the expansion, the site will be improved with additional open space, decorative wrought iron fencing and other aesthetic improvements to create a pleasant environment for the care home residents as well as the surrounding neighborhood. Further, the care home will provide a safe and nurturing environment for people living with schizophrenia spectrum disorders; that might otherwise be without housing and key support services. ii. Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity? The expansion of the care home and support services to serve 12 additional residents will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area as the facility is located within an area of the City that is predominantly residential in nature. The John Henry Foundation care home provides services to care for some of the most vulnerable members of society, in a well maintained and supportive environment. Finally, the project design and ongoing site management will mitigate any negative or adverse impacts created by the use that could otherwise affect the health, safety, or general welfare of the surrounding neighborhood and businesses. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area? The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but instead will provide a well maintained and operated service to the community. The expanded care home would include improvement to the property and streetscape including new decorative fencing, additional landscaping, and architectural enhancements. In addition, a number of Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 2 of 12 31A-27 the care home residents attend local colleges and volunteer at a number of community locations contributing the overall community. The use of the site as a secured care home, in conjunction with the improvements that will be made to the site, will enhance the economic viability of the area. iv. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use? The use will be in compliance with all regulations and provisions of Chapter 41 (Zoning Code) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. Site improvements are proposed to the parking and on -site circulation that will bring the site into compliance with the Zoning Code. The remaining items that are not in compliance with the Zoning Code are intended to be addressed by the requested variances for setbacks, building separation, and front yard fence. V. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan of the City? The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan, but rather support its goals. Goal 1 of the Land Use Element encourages uses that promote a balance of land uses that address basic community needs. Goal 2 encourages uses that enhance the City's economic and fiscal viability. The care home expansion will further these goals as the care home expansion includes physical improvements to enhance the property, thereby contributing to the overall integrity of the neighborhood. Housing Element Goal 2 seeks to provide a diversity of quality housing, affordability levels, and living experiences that accommodate Santa Ana's residents and workforce of all household types, income levels, and age groups to foster an inclusive community. Goal 4 seeks adequate housing opportunities and support services for people with disabilities, and people needing emergency, transitional or supportive housing. D. Variance No. 2014 -07 has been filed with the City of Santa Ana seeking to allow: (a) a reduction in front yard setbacks for 325 and 403 North Susan Street; (b) a reduction in rear yard setbacks for 325 and 403 North Susan Street; and, (c) a reduction in building separation setbacks for 325 and 403 North Susan Street. Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 3 of 12 31A-28 1. Section 41 -249 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code requires a twenty (20) foot front yard setback; section 41 -251 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code requires a fifteen (15) foot rear yard setback; and, section 41 -254 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code requires a fifteen (15) foot separation between primary structures. 2. Approval of the variance will recognize the location of the existing buildings and allow the existing 17 feet, 6 inch to 19 feet, 6 inch front yard setbacks to remain. In addition, relief is requested from the 15 feet rear yard setback to allow a rear yard setback of 10 feet for Building 5, as well as relief from the 15 feet separation requirement between Building 1 and 8, which is only 10 feet. 3. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41 -638 authorizes the Planning Commission to grant a variance upon making certain findings. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance is found to deprive the subject property of privileges not otherwise at variance with the intent and purpose of provisions of this Chapter. The project site has a special circumstance related to its size, shape and location. The property is located just north of First Street on Susan Street and is bound by existing development. The existing structures on the subject lot were originally constructed prior to 1970 in their existing locations, thus creating challenges in reconfiguring the site for expansion. The overall project site will be upgraded to comply with the Citywide Design Guidelines and will comply with the development standards set forth in Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code including parking, trash enclosure, and open space. ii. That the granting of a variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of one or more substantial property rights. The granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. Allowing a reduction in the front and rear yard setbacks as well as the building separation standard will accommodate the placement of the existing buildings and will allow the owner the ability to develop the property with a care home facility that is compatible Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 4 of 12 31A-29 with the Two - Family Residence (R2) zoning district. Compliance with the setback standards would result in portions of the existing structures to be demolished, which would reduce the feasibility of the proposed expanded care home and impact the property rights of the owner. iii. That the granting of a variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to surrounding property. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public or surrounding properties as the buildings and site have been designed to comply with all applicable development standards except for the front yard, side yard setbacks and building separation standard. The expanded office building, to be built in the center of the campus, along with the related site improvements and landscaping, will enhance this property as well as the surrounding properties. The rehabilitation of the two residential structures at 325 Susan Street, by reintroducing Craftsman architectural features such as decorative porch piers, wood window trim and wood siding accents at the eaves, will enrich the street elevation and ensure the project is architecturally compatible with the adjacent neighborhood. iv. That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City. Finally, the project will not adversely affect the general plan as care facilities are a compatible use in the Low Density Residential General Plan land use designation. In addition, the project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. Specifically, Land Use Element Policy 2.10 supports new development which is harmonious in scale and character with the existing development and Policy 3.5 encourages new development that is compatible in scale, and consistent with the architectural style and character of the neighborhood. The existing care facility, in conjunction with the improvements to be made to the site, will be in scale and compatible with the development pattern of the neighborhood. Housing Element Goal 2 seeks to provide a diversity of quality housing, affordability levels, and living experiences that accommodate Santa Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 5 of 12 31A-30 Ana's residents and workforce of all household types, income levels, and age groups to foster an inclusive community. The John Henry Foundation currently provides housing and support services for special needs and the developmental disabled population. The proposed project will allow the Foundation to expand upon the services they provide. E. Variance No. 2014 -08 has been filed with the City of Santa Ana seeking to allow an increase in the front yard fence height. 1. Section 41- 610(a)(1) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code limits front yard fences in the R2 district to three (3) feet in height. 2. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow a six (6) foot high decorative wrought iron fence and entry gates along Susan Street. The applicant contends that the increased fence height will allow the John Henry Foundation to provide a more secure environment for their special needs and developmentally disabled residents. 3. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41 -638 authorizes the Planning Commission to grant a variance upon making certain findings. i. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance is found to deprive the subject property of privileges not otherwise at variance with the intent and purpose of the provisions of this chapter. The project site has a special circumstance related to its size, shape, location and surroundings. The property is located on Susan Street between First and Fifth Streets and is primarily surrounded by lower density residential development. The increase in the height of the fence is needed in order to allow the property owner the ability to use the facility to its maximum potential and ensure the privacy and safety of its residents. ii. That the granting of a variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of one or more substantial property rights. The granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. Allowing relief from the maximum three -foot high front yard fence requirement will allow the owner Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 6 of 12 31A-31 the ability to develop the property with a care home facility that provides a secure environment and is compatible with the Two - Family Residence (R2) zoning district. Without the proposed six -foot high wrought iron fence, the care home operation and site security would be compromised, which impacts the property rights of the owner. iii. That the granting of a variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to surrounding property. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public or surrounding properties as the building and site have been designed to comply with the majority of the applicable development standards. The applicant is proposing to replace an existing six -foot high chain link fence with a six -foot high decorative wrought iron fence and gate with a landscape buffer along Susan Street to enrich the streetscape and pedestrian walking experience. iv. That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City. The project will not adversely affect the general plan as care facilities and ancillary fencing are a compatible use in the Low Density Residential General Plan land use designation. In addition, the project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. Specifically, Land Use Element Policy 2.10 supports new development which is harmonious in scale and character with the existing development and Policy 3.5 encourages new development that is compatible in scale, and consistent with the architectural style and character of the neighborhood. The proposed fencing for the existing care facility, in conjunction with the improvements to be made to the site, will be in scale and compatible with the development pattern of the neighborhood. F. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301 and Section 15332. These exemptions allow a project that includes the rehabilitation and limited expansion of an existing structure as well as infill development on a project site that is no more than five acres in size, is Resolution No. 2014 -47 Page 7 of 12 31A-32 surrounded by urban uses, and is consistent with goals and policies of the City's General Plan. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2013 -29 will be filed for this project. Section 2.

Request of Applicant Crown Castle, representing Sprint PCS, is requesting approval of a 47 -foot high wireless facility ( "monopole ") at 1241 South Grand Avenue. Major wireless communication facilities require approval of a conditional use permit (CUP) pursuant to Section 41- 198.3(b) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). Project Location and Site Description The project is located on a 7.87 -acre parcel of land located at the southeast corner of Grand Avenue and McFadden Avenue, north of Century High School. The site is currently improved with a Southern California Edison substation where yard management, transportation services, equipment storage, and vehicle dueling occurs. Structures on the site include high - voltage transformers, power poles, high - tension lines, ground equipment storage structures, and deployment offices. Land uses surrounding the site include industrial uses to the north, east and west, and Century High School to the south (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3). Project Description Sprint PCS is proposing to modify an existing, unstealthed monopole by upgrading existing antenna and related ancillary equipment. The project will add new service antenna panels to the monopole and enhance ancillary equipment within the existing enclosure, while removing existing service antenna panels. This facility is intended to provide increased cellular coverage and call capacity in this area of the City. No changes to the monopole structure are proposed as part of this project, and the facility will maintain the existing maximum height of 47 feet. Existing and new equipment for the wireless facility EXHIBIT A 31 B -3 CUP No. 2014 -09 December 8, 2014 Page 2 will be installed within a chain -link enclosure that, when combined with the existing lease area, measures approximately 20 -feet by 25 -feet for a total of 500 square feet. The monopole and enclosure are proposed to remain in their current location, in the center of the northerly portion of the overall site, near existing high - voltage transmission lines (Exhibits 4, 5 and 6). In addition to the service antenna panel and equipment upgrades, the applicant also proposes to replace any dead and missing landscaping along Grand and McFadden Avenues. These planters are currently developed with mature trees and shrubs but contain bare patches of soil that will be planted with ground cover or other shrubs where needed. Protect Backaround In September 1999, Sprint PCS submitted plans to install the current wireless facility at the Southern California Edison substation. At the time, the project required a conditional use permit and a variance. In May 2000, Conditional Use Permit No. 00 -07 and Variance No. 00 -05 were approved for the project. The CUP permitted the construction of the current monopole, whose unstealthed design was approved in order to help the facility blend in with the nearby high - voltage transmission lines. Moreover, the current design was deemed appropriate due to the monopole's location over 200 feet away from the nearest property line, behind an existing block wall and landscaping that provide screening. f=urther, the variance permitted the construction of the facility without the required landscaping around the base of the equipment enclosure due to the requirements of Southern California Edison that prohibit potentially flammable materials, such as landscaping, on substation sites. In exchange, Sprint PCS enhanced existing landscaped areas along the site's perimeter along the Grand and McFadden Avenue frontages of the project site. Although the variance remains active, Southern California Edison has reaffirmed that for the current application, on -site landscaping and stealthing of the facility with fake tree branches would pose hazards to the day -to -day operations on the substation site, The screening provided by the existing transmission lines, block walls, and landscaping along the site's street frontages are designed to comply with the City's standards. In October 2013, Sprint PCS, represented by Core Development Services, proposed modifying the existing monopole to remove several obsolete antennas and replace them with antennas that reflect the current technology, as well as adding backup battery storage within the existing equipment enclosure. Staff review of the proposal showed that the current CUP (No. 00 -07) had expired. SAME Section 41- 198.13 states that major wireless communication facilities shall be approved for a period not to exceed five years, although subsequent State legislative acts have required that such facilities be approved for a period not to exceed 10 years. As the current facility is 14 years old, the applicant was required to apply for a new CUP in order to proceed with the proposed modifications and upgrades as required by the SAMC. Core subsequently submitted application materials to request approval of a new conditional use permit, after which Sprint PCS voluntarily placed the application on hold. In October 2014, Sprint PCS, represented by Crown Castle, reapplied with the current application. 31 B -4 CUP No. 2014 -09 December 8, 2014 Page 3 General Plan and Zonina Consistenc The General Plan land use designation for the site is Industrial (IND), which allows for manufacturing and industrial uses. Uses such as wireless facilities are consistent with this General Plan land use designation. The zoning for the site is Light Industrial (M -1). The Light Industrial zoning district is a zone that also allows for manufacturing, industrial and warehouse uses. The proposed use is also consistent with the zoning designation. Proiect Analysis In July 1998, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS -2356, which established regulations for wireless communication facilities throughout the City. Major wireless communication facilities such as the Sprint PCS facility are required to have a stealth design and be located in an area that provides the greatest amount of visual screening. Further, these major facilities require the approval of a conditional use permit. Also, Section 41 -198.4 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) identifies several site improvements that may be required at sites with major wireless facilities. These improvements include: 1. Landscaping around the base of the facility; including vines, groundcover and a 24 -inch box tree; 2. Decorative fencing (wrought iron or block) around the facility, 3. A six -foot high solid wall between the facility and property zoned or used for residential; 4. One parking space, if on -site parking is not available; 5, Repairing, repaving and restriping of a parking lot which is in poor condition; 6, The repainting of buildings on a site; and 7. The construction of a new trash enclosure. As part of the development review of the project, staff worked with the applicant to identify landscape improvements along the project site's street frontages to be required in tandem with the monopole and equipment enclosure. These improvements reflect the requirement to screen the facility from view, to provide enhanced landscaping through the planting of ground cover or shrubs, to deter graffiti through the planting and maintenance of landscaping materials, and to minimize the project's overall impacts on the surrounding community. Conditional use permits are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC. Conditional use permits may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. 31 B -5 CUP No. 2014 -09 December 8, 2014 Page 4 • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. • The project will continue to provide a service or facility which will contribute to the community. The monopole currently provides a service to Santa Ana residents, businesses and motorists who subscribe to Sprint PCS's services by maintaining cellular service and data coverage for its users in the southeast sector of Santa Ana. The issuance of a new conditional use permit will allow the current facility to continue providing a service to the surrounding community. The issuance of a new conditional use permit for the existing wireless facility at this location will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area as the proposed facility will remain in compliance with Federal law that governs health related issues for wireless facilities, including safety regulations from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The monopole, in conjunction with the enhanced landscaping along the project's street frontages, will be compatible with the surrounding area and will not adversely affect the economic viability in the area. The stealthing provided by the monopole's location within the substation and site enhancements will maintain and increase the economic stability for this industrial corridor by providing an additional service for business owners, workers, and residents in the area. The use will continue to comply with all provisions pertaining to the construction and installation of wireless facilities identified in Chapter 41 (Zoning Code) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. The facility will be stealthed by the existing high - voltage transmission lines, and the site will feature new and enhanced landscaping, providing additional screening for the current use's operations, and will comply with other standards outlined in the SAMC. RIUM CUP No. 2014 -09 December 8, 2014 Page 5 The monopole will not adversely affect the General Plan as cellular facilities that are designed to be compatible with the surrounding environment are consistent with the goals and objectives of the Land Use Element. Goal 1 promotes a balance of land uses to address community needs, which includes means of communication that will be served by the proposed monopole. In addition, Goals 3 and 5 require preservation of neighborhood character and integrity as well as mitigation of developments' impacts. The monopole "s location minimizes visual impact on the area and assists with the stealthing of the equipment. Further, Policy 2.2 encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for services. Enhancing a cell phone provider's coverage in the area adds to the services that are readily available for business owners, workers, and residents in the immediate vicinity. A monopole disguised by existing transmission lines on the project site, located over 200 feet away from the nearest street frontage, and behind a block wall and landscape buffer, provides the best stealth possible for this location. This configuration and design also minimizes fire hazards and other Impediments to operations on the substation site. The facility is located within an industrial district and will remain near the center of the site, away from other industrial buildings. Moreover, the landscape enhancements along Grand and McFadden Avenues will easily blend into the existing landscape materials found on both the project site and along the major corridors that cross near the project site. Finally, all associated wiring and conduit for the facility will be underground or hidden within the interior of the monopole. This location is also optimal to provide the coverage necessary for existing and expanding service. The proposed cellular antennas will provide a benefit to Santa Ana residents, businesses and motorists who subscribe to Sprint PCS by maintaining cellular service and data coverage in the area. The proposed wireless facility complies with the City's Wireless Communications Facility Ordinance and will provide needed service to this area of the City. Further, the project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan that safeguard residents and workers in the area while encouraging land uses that accommodate the City's needs for services. Public Notification The project site is not located within the boundaries of an established Neighborhood Association. However, staff contacted the president of the adjacent Lyon Street Neighborhood Association to ensure that she was notified of this project and to identify any areas of concern, The president did not identify any concerns with the project. The project site was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and notices were sent to all property owners and occupants within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public. 31 B -7 CUP No. 2014 -09 December 8, 2014 Page 6 This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act. The project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301. This Class 1 exemption consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, or mechanical equipment involving negligible or no expansion of use. The wireless facility is an existing monopole and equipment area that has been found by the City's development review agencies to not create any adverse impacts such as noise, traffic, or safety concerns. As a result, Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2013 -85 will be filed for this project. Strategic Plan Alignment Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 3 Economic Development, Objective No. 2 (create new opportunities for businesstjob growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies), as well as Objective No, 5 (leverage private investment that results in tax base expansion and job creation citywide), Conclusion Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -09 as conditioned. _,XVA I A/___ Ali Pezeshkpour Assistant Planner I AP:jm a&epodslStaff Reports for MCUP1409 Sprint PC3 Edison.pc Attachments: Exhibit 1 —Vicinity Map Exhibit 2 — Location Map Exhibit 3 — Site Photo Exhibit 4 Site Plan Exhibit 5 — Elevations Exhibit 6 — Photo Simulations MWOO CUP 2014 -09 SPRINT PCS MONOPOLE 1241 SOUTH GRAND AVENUE - - =500 FaT 1" =1000 FEET P L A N N I N E A N D B U I L D I N G A G E N C Y EXHIBIT 1 VICINITY MAP 31 B -9 anm M1 M2 Mt F _ PT ca_t 1 SD -06 Ni P4 � wrf P1 Q R4 a M2 n k M2 Al t nl O P M R4 i nil Ml MI Ra Ml M1 I Mt R3 I At nx xa nx nx r nx � M7 * CS nx M1 RI 2 MI C4 3 M7 R4 I _ � F RI —� Mt MI R1 w.r Pt + Ml RI ktf FU '¢ M7 MT Ml % PI Mi R O N,T MI RI F t Mi MC u EDINGER AVIi.

Request of Applicant Kahroba Ayazi, proprietor for Last Call on Broadway Restaurant, is requesting approval of modifications to Conditional Use Permit No. 2013 -21 to allow a Type 47 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license for the on- premise sale and consumption of beer, wine, and distilled spirits at a new restaurant. Establishments that sell alcoholic beverages require a conditional use permit pursuant to Section 41 -196 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). Project Location and Site Description Last Call on Broadway is proposed to be located within the existing historic Empire Market Building at the northwest corner of Broadway and Second Street. The lot is approximately 12,000 square feet in size, and is developed with a two -story 22,000 square foot commercial building. The suite the restaurant proposes to occupy contains 2,728 square feet, of which 2,320 are on the ground floor and 408 are on the mezzanine level. The Empire Market Building was designated on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties as a Key structure in 2001. Surrounding land uses include commercial /office to the north, east and south, and residential on the upper floors further north on the block and across the alley to the west (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3). Project Description Last Call on Broadway proposes to occupy a suite on the ground floor of the Empire Market Building as well as an interior mezzanine within the same space. The mezzanine will be used for the kitchen and storage of goods. The total suite, consisting of the ground floor and the mezzanine, contains 2,728 EXHIBIT A 31 C -3 Modification to CUP No. 2013 -21 December 8, 2014 Page 2 square feet. The building has traditionally contained a mixture of commercial uses; including retail, office and service uses. The use that previously occupied the subject tenant space was Theater Out, which relocated to 402 West Fourth Street in 2013. In conjunction with the new restaurant, the applicant is requesting approval of a Type 47 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to allow the on- premise consumption of beer, wine, and distilled spirits to patrons at the restaurant. The restaurant will be a full service, sit -down eating establishment that will hold approximately 45 seats within its dining room plus approximately eight more at standing tables. No outdoor seating is proposed at this time. The on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages to customers, which requires a CUP, is intended to provide a service ancillaryto the primary restaurant use. Overall alcohol storage and display areas will contain approximately 34 square feet, which is less than five percent of the floor area and is consistent with the SAMC requirement of maintaining five percent or less of the gross floor area of the restaurant for alcohol storage and display (Exhibits 4 and 5). The proposed hours of operation for the restaurant are from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m., seven days a week. Although overconcentration criteria are not applicable to on -sale ABC licenses, a review of the project vicinity indicates there are currently 14 ABC licenses located within 500 feet of the project site, including the proposed license. These 14 ABC licenses include one Type 40 license (on -sale beer), four Type 41 licenses, (on -sale beer and wine), six Type 47 ABC licenses (on -sale beer, wine and distilled spirits), one Type 42 license (public premise beer and wine only), one Type 48 (public premise beer, wine and distilled spirits), and one Type 23 license (brewery). However, this information does not affect the analysis or recommendation contained in this report. Protect Background On August 11, 2014, the Planning Commission adopted a resolution approving CUP Nos. 2013 -21, 2013.22, and 2013 -23 for the on- premise sale of beer and wine (Type 41 ABC license), for after -hours operations until 2:00 a.m., and for a banquet use at Last Call on Broadway. Since that time, the applicant received authorization from the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control to upgrade to a Type 47 ABC license for the sale of distilled spirits in addition to beer and wine. The proposed Type 47 ABC license for the on- premise sale of beer, wine, and distilled spirits requires approval of modification to CUP No. 2013 -21. The issuance of a new CUP is not required as the existing CUP is still valid and the use must continue to comply with the same operational standards for all eating establishments that offer on- premise consumption of any alcoholic beverage. The Empire Market Building was constructed in the Art Deco style in 1933 at a time when Art Deco /Streamline Moderne styles of architecture were very popular. The building has been occupied by a variety of retail businesses and office uses on both floors. The previous tenant was a theater, which vacated in early 2013. 31 C -4 Modification to CUP No. 2013 -21 December 8, 2014 Page 3 Although CUP No. 2013.21 for the on- premise sale of beer and wine was approved in August 2014, Last Call on Broadway is currently undergoing tenant improvements in anticipation of its future opening. The restaurant will be an independently owned restaurant specializing in small plate cuisine, salads, and hot sandwiches. General Plan and Zoning Consistency The General Plan land use designation for the site is District Center (DC). District Center land -use districts provide highly visible and accessible commercial development along the City's arterial transportation corridors and provide important neighborhood facilities and services. The Downtown District portion of the District Center serves as one of the County's major employment and governmental operations centers complemented with a mix of residential, commercial, and services uses to enhance its urban vibrancy. The project site and the proposed restaurant are consistent with this General Plan land use designation. The parcel is located within the Transit Zoning Code (SD -84) zoning district in the Downtown (DT) sub - zone. The SD -84 zoning district allows for retail and service uses such as eating establishments, making the use consistent with the zoning designation. Project Analysis Conditional use permit requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAME. Conditional use permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. 31 C -5 Modification to CUP No. 2013 -21 December 8, 2014 Page 4 If these findings can be made, then It is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit requests, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the proposed modification to the conditional use permit. Last Call on Broadway is requesting approval to upgrade a Type 41 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to a Type 47 ABC license to allow the on- premise consumption of beer, wine, and distilled spirits. The applicant intends to sell alcoholic beverages as an ancillary service to the primary restaurant use, Staff has reviewed the applicant's request and has determined that the proposed establishment is in compliance with the standards for establishments selling alcoholic beverages. The proposed Type 47 ABC license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant's customers by allowing them the ability to purchase a variety of alcoholic beverages with their food, This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food - related amenity. Standards are applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. The proposed Type 47 ABC license for the on -sale consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits at this location will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because operational standards to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. This is primarily a restaurant use and the addition of distilled spirits to the beer and wine license will be ancillary to the main use as an eating establishment. In addition, the use will occur within the interior of the premises, mitigating any potential Impacts to the surrounding neighborhood. Finally, the sale of alcohol in the restaurant is intended to be incidental to the primary use as an eating establishment. The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow the restaurant to compete with other nearby restaurants in Downtown and citywide that also offer a full selection of alcoholic beverages for sale to their guests and other visitors. Moreover, the offering of a variety of alcoholic beverages will allow Last Call on Broadway, a small business, to remain economically viable and contributes to the overall success of the Downtown Santa Ana commercial district, helping to decrease the number of vacant spaces that may affect the economic viability of the area. The proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and conditions imposed on a restaurant selling beer, wine and distilled spirits pursuant to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. The facility will be maintained as a full- service, bona -fide eating establishment, having suitable kitchen facilities and supplying an assortment of foods commonly ordered at various hours of the day. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than five percent of the gross floor area for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold established by the Santa Ana Municipal Code, 31 C -6 Modification to CUP No. 2013 -21 December 8, 2014 Page 5 • The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan. The granting of this conditional use permit supports several policies contained in the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for goods and services. Providing a variety of full- service restaurants that feature alcoholic beverages on their menus offers additional dining options for Santa Ana residents and visitors, especially those to Downtown, which continues to develop as a dining and retail destination with regional significance. Furthermore, Policy 2.8 of the Land Use Element promotes the rehabilitation of commercial properties, and encourages increased levels of capital investment. Last Call on Broadway's tenancy will include significant tenant improvements. Further, Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards for the proposed Type 47 ABC license will maintain a safe and attractive environment in Downtown Santa Ana. Finally, Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. Last Call on Broadway will be located in a commercial area and its operations will be compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. Police Department Analysis The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for the sale and service of alcoholic beverages and after -hours operation in order to ensure that the potential crime and nuisance behaviors associated with alcohol consumption are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For on -sale licenses the Police Department analyzes the crime rate in the area using the standards and definitions contained in the Business and Professions Code Section 23948.4(x)(2), which also are utilized by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). This section defines "reported crimes" as criminal homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault; burglary, larceny theft, and motor vehicle theft, combined with all arrests for other crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors, except traffic citations. The Police Department then compares the number of such crimes in the reporting district as compared to the number of crimes in other reporting districts. In keeping with the standard used by State ABC and Business and Professions Code, should the Police Department determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater number of reported crimes than the average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department will consider this information in making its recommendation. The project at 202 North Broadway is located in Reporting District No. 165. This reporting district is 20 percent higher than the average number of reported crimes in all reporting districts. Although the crime rate is 20 percent higher, the Police Department contends that the operational standards applicable to an on -sale ABC license will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the surrounding community. 31 C -7 Modification to CUP No. 2013 -21 December 8, 2014 Page 6 Public Notification The project is located within the boundaries of the Downtown Neighborhood Association. Staff contacted the presidents of the Downtown and the nearby Lacy Neighborhood Associations to ensure that they were notified of this project and to identify any areas of concern. Neither president identified any concerns with the proposed modification. The project site was also posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter, and mailed notices were sent to all property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public. CEQA Compliance In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for further review per Section 15301. The Class 1 exemption allows the licensing of existing private structures and facilities when there is no expansion of the existing use, but allows the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, or leasing of existing structures. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2013 -52 will be filed for this project. Stratenic Plan Alignment Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 3 Economic Development, Objectives No. 2 (create new opportunities for business /job growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies) and No. 4 (continue to pursue objectives that shape downtown Santa Ana into a thriving, culturally diverse, shopping, dining, and entertainment destination).

Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan of the City? The proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan. The granting of this conditional use permit supports several policies contained in the General Plan.

Request of Applicant Hanh Nguyen, representing Blackmarket Bakery, is requesting approval of a conditional use permit for a Type 41 Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license for the on- premise sale and consumption of beer and wine at 211 North Broadway. Establishments that sell alcoholic beverages require a conditional use permit (CUP) pursuant to Section 41 -196 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC). Project Location and Site Description Blackmarket Bakery will be a new restaurant that will be operating within a ground floor tenant space in the historic Santora Building, which was originally constructed in 1928 and placed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties in 2001 as a Landmark structure. The Santora Building is located on the northeast corner of Broadway and Second Street. The site is approximately 0.37 acres in size and contains a variety of retail, service and restaurant uses within 47,133 square feet of building area. Blackmarket Bakery is proposed to occupy a 2,293 square foot vacant tenant space. The site is surrounded by a mixture of retail, service, and office uses to the east, west, north and south; and multi - family residential to the southwest (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3). Project Description Blackmarket Bakery is requesting approval of a Type 41 ABC license to allow the on- premise sale of beer and wine as part of the eating establishment's operations. The proposed eating establishment will hold approximately 10 seats within its dining room. The on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages to customers is intended to provide a service ancillary to the primary use. The proposed hours of operation are from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Sunday. EXHIBIT A 31 D -3 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -43 December 8, 2014 Page 2 The display and storage areas for alcoholic beverages will be located in a refrigerator, a storage shelf, and a dispensing station, all located behind the service counter. The proposed alcohol display and storage areas total 25 square feet in size, which is less than two percent of the gross floor area of the establishment, This percentage of alcohol storage is below the SAMC's maximum for eating establishments serving alcoholic beverages of five percent of the gross floor area of the restaurant (Exhibits 4 and 5). Although overconcentration criteria are not applicable to on -sale ABC licenses, a review of the project vicinity indicates that there are 11 ABC licenses located within 500 feet of the project site. These 11 ABC licenses include the following: one Type 48 license (public premise beer, wine and distilled spirits); one Type 40 license (on- premise beer); five Type 41 licenses (on- premise beer and wine); and four Type 47 licenses (on- premise beer, wine, and distilled spirits). However, this information does not affect the analysis or recommendation contained in this report. Project Background Blackmarket Bakery will be a fast - casual restaurant that will offer a host of specialty "from scratch" baked goods to complement its brunch and dinner menus. The first Blackmarket Bakery was established in 2004 in Irvine, California. Subsequently, Blackmarket Bakery opened its first retail location in Costa Mesa, California, in 2013, The proposed eating establishment will be Blackmarket Bakery's third location in Southern California and its first in Santa Ana. General Man and Zoning Consistency The General Plan land use designation for the site is District Center (DG). District Center land -use districts serve as anchors to the City's commercial corridors, and to accommodate major development activity. District Centers are developed In an urban character that include a mixture of office, commercial, and residential uses which provide shopping; business,, cultural, education, recreation and entertainment, such as this restaurant. The project site is consistent with this General Plan land use designation, The site is located within the Transit Zoning Code (SD -84) zoning district in the Downtown (DT) sub - zone. The SD -84 zoning district allows for eating establishments, making the proposed use consistent with the zoning designation. Project Analvsls Conditional use permit requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC. Conditional use permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: 31 D -4 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -43 December 8, 2014 Page 3 • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community, • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area, • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. 'Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. The proposed Type 41 ABC license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant's customers by allowing them the ability to purchase beer and wine with their food. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food- related amenity. Standards are applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. The proposed Type 41 ABC license for the on -sale consumption of beer and wine at this location will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because operational standards to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. In addition, the use will occur within the interior of the premises, mitigating any potential impacts to the surrounding neighborhood. Finally, the sale of beer and wine in the restaurant is intended to be incidental to the primary use as an eating establishment. The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow the restaurant to compete with other nearby restaurants in Downtown and city wide that also offer beer and wine for sale to their guests and other visitors. Moreover, the offering of alcoholic beverages allows Blackmarket Bakery, a small business, to remain economically viable and contributes to the overall success of Downtown Santa Ana commercial district, helping to decrease the number of vacant spaces that may affect the economic viability of the area. 31 D -5 Conditional Use Permit No. 201443 December 8, 2014 Page 4 The proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and standards imposed on a restaurant selling beer and wine pursuant to Chapter 41 of the SAMC. The facility will be maintained as a full service, bona -fide eating establishment, having suitable kitchen facilities and supplying an assortment of foods commonly ordered at various hours of the day. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than two percent of the gross floor area for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold established by the SAMC. The proposed use will not adversely affect the City's General Plan. The granting of this conditional use permit supports policies contained in the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for goods and services, Providing a variety of full - service restaurants that feature alcohol beverages on their menus offers additional dining options for Santa Ana residents and visitors, especially those to Downtown, which continues to develop as a dining and retail destination with regional significance. Furthermore, Policy 2.8 of the Land Use Element promotes the rehabilitation of commercial properties, and encourages increased levels of capital investment. Blackmarket Bakery's tenancy will include significant tenant improvements. Further, Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards for the proposed 'Type 41 ABC license will maintain a safe and attractive environment in Downtown Santa Ana. Finally, Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. Blackmarket Bakery is located in a commercial area and its operations will be compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. Blackmarket Bakery is proposing to open a new eating establishment in the city. The site will be in compliance with all standards of SAMC Section 41- 196(g) for the on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages (Exhibit 6). These 25 operational standards will mitigate potential impacts on the adjacent uses and ensure the sale of beer and wine to the eating establishment's patrons does not become an attractive nuisance to the community. Police Department Analysis The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for the sale and service of alcoholic beverages and after - hours operation in order to ensure that the potential crime and nuisance behaviors associated with alcohol consumption are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For on -sale licenses the Police Department analyzes the crime rate in the area using the standards and definitions contained in the Business and Professions Code Section 23948.4(c)(2), which also are utilized by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). This section defines "reported crimes' as criminal homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny theft, and motor vehicle theft, combined with all arrests for other crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors, except traffic citations. 31 D -6 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -43 December 8, 2014 Page 5 The Police Department then compares the number of such crimes in the reporting district as compared to the number of crimes in other reporting districts. In keeping with the standard used by State ABC and Business and Professions. Code, should the Police Department determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater number of reported crimes than the average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department will consider this information in making its recommendation. The project at 211 North Broadway is located in Reporting District No. 165. Reporting District No. 168 is 20 percent higher than the average number of reported crimes in all reporting districts. Although the crime rate is 20 percent higher, the Police Department contends that the operational standards applicable to an on -sale ABC license will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the surrounding community. Public Notification The project site is located within the boundaries of the Downtown Neighborhood Association and is within the Downtown National Register Historic District. Staff contacted the presidents of the Downtown Neighborhood Association and the nearby Lacy Neighborhood Association to ensure they were notified of this project and to identify any areas of concern. The association presidents did not raise any issues or concerns during the telephone discussion. The project site was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to all property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of printing of this report, no areas of concern were raised, nor had any correspondence, either written or electronic, been received from any members of the public. CEQA Compliance In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for further review per Section 15301, The Class 1 exemption allows the operating, permitting and licensing of existing private structures with negligible or no expansion of the existing use. The proposed application is to approve an alcoholic beverage control license and allow the sale of beer and wine within an existing commercial building. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2014 -100 will be filed for this project, Strategic Plan Alignment Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 3 Economic Development, Objectives No. 2 (create new opportunities for business /job growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies) and No. 4 (continue to pursue objectives that shape downtown Santa Ana into a thriving, culturally diverse, shopping, dining, and entertainment destination). 31 D -7 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -43 December 8, 2014 Page 6 Conclusion Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -43. s Ricardo Soto Planning Technician RS:jm M:raportsWUP 2014- 431cup14.43 Black Market Type 41 ABC.pc OleoM 1 wb� A Vemy Carvajal Senior Planner Attachments: Exhibit 1 — Vicinity Map Exhibit 2 — Location Map Exhibit 3 — Existing Conditions Photo Exhibit 4 — Site Plan Exhibit 5 Floor Plan Exhibit 6 — Operational Standards for On -Safe Establishments 31 D -8 p � p so ss SO�SS Al 69481ALACROULTUPALT CR -H PAMGMCOIR0A110N cc GSM COMMffUALSOMMAIN MI ci COMMUNITYMMMMAL W AMMO COMM.

Proiect Location and Site Description Chipotle Mexican Grill is currently constructing tenant improvements to open a new eating establishment at 629 South Harbor Boulevard. The site is located on the northeast corner of Harbor Boulevard and McFadden Avenue, is approximately 0.5 acres in size, and is developed with a single - tenant commercial space with a total building area of 2,292 square feet. There are a total of 29 on- site parking stalls provided. The site is surrounded by a mixture of service and retail uses to the north, south, east and west (Exhibits 1, 2 and 3). Project Description Chipotle Mexican Grill is requesting apprm and consumption of beer, wine and distille The restaurant will be maintained as a fu patio area. Chipotle Mexican Grill will hav ABC license. The dining area will contain accommodate approximately 20 patrons. al of a Type 47 ABC license to allow the on- premise sale d spirits as part of the eating establishment's operations. I- service, sit -down eating establishment with an outdoor s all necessary equipment to be considered for a Type 47 approximately 58 seats and the proposed patio area will The proposed patio area will be enclosed with a 36 -inch EXHIBIT A 31 E -3 Conditional Use Permit No, 2014 -44 December 8, 2014 Page 2 high fence that is in compliance will all applicable City and State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control standards.. The on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages to customers is intended to provide a service that is ancillary to the primary restaurant use. The proposed hours of operation for the restaurant will be from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday. The storage area for alcoholic beverages will be located in the kitchen. The alcohol storage area will total seven square feet in size, which is less than one percent of the floor area of the restaurant. This percentage of alcohol storage is below the Santa Ana Municipal Code's maximum for eating establishments serving alcoholic beverages of five percent of the gross floor area of the restaurant (Exhibits 4 and 5). Although overconcentration criteria are not applicable to on -sale ABC licenses, a review of the project vicinity indicates that there are currently three ABC licenses located within 500 feet of the project site in addition to the proposed license. These three ABC licenses include two Type 41 licenses (on -sale beer and wine only) and one Type 21 license (off sale beer, wine and distilled spirits). However, this information does not affect the analysis or recommendation contained in this report. Proiect Background Chipotle Mexican Grill is a fast - casual restaurant chain that offers gourmet burritos, tacos, and other specialty Mexican food made with fresh, natural produce and ethically grown animals. Many locations nationwide offer beer; wine and distilled spirits to their patrons. The proposed location would be Chipotle's fourth in Santa Ana. Chipotle Mexican Grill will occupy the single- tenant commercial building that was originally constructed In 1979 for Der Wienerschnitzel. The site is currently undergoing significant tenant, fagade and parking lot improvements. However, because the prior tenants did not sell alcohol to their patrons, approval of a new CUP for a Type 47 ABC license is required. General Plan and Zoning Consistency The General Plan land use designation for the site is General Commercial (GC). General Commercial land -use districts provide highly visible and accessible commercial development along the City's arterial transportation corridors and provide important neighborhood facilities and services, such as this restaurant. The project site is consistent with the General Commercial land use designation, The site is located within the Harbor Mixed Use Corridor Specific Plan (SP -2) zoning district in the Transit Node (TN) sub -zone. The SP -2 zoning district allows for eating establishments, making the proposed use consistent with the zoning designation. 31 E -4 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -44 December 8, 2014 Page 3 Proiect Analvsis Conditional use permit requests are governed by Section 41 -638 of the SAMC. Conditional use permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established; • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use, • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. The proposed Type 47 ABC license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant's customers by allowing them the ability to purchase beer, wine and distilled spirits with their food. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food - related amenity. Standards are applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. • The proposed Type 47 ABC license for the on -sale consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits at this location will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because operational standards to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. f=urthermore, the sale of beer; wine and distilled spirits in the restaurant is intended to be incidental to the primary use as an eating establishment. 31 E -5 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -44 December 8, 2014 Page 4 • The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will Instead allow the restaurant to compete with other nearby restaurants that also offer alcoholic beverages for sale to their guests and other visitors. Moreover, the offering of alcoholic beverages allows Chipotle Mexican Grill to remain economically viable and contributes to the overall success of the commercial district; helping to decrease the number of vacant spaces that may affect the economic viability of the area. • The proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and standards imposed on a restaurant selling beer, wine and distilled spirits pursuant to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. The facility will be maintained as a full - service, bona -fide eating establishment, having the suitable Kitchen facilities and supplying an assortment of foods commonly ordered at various hours of the day. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than one percent of the gross floor area for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold established by the SAMC. ■ The proposed use will not adversely affect the City's General Plan. The granting of this conditional use permit supports policies contained in the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for goods and services. Providing a variety of full- service restaurants that feature alcohol beverages on their menus offers additional dining options for Santa Ana residents and visitors. Furthermore, Policy 2.8 of the Land Use Element promotes the rehabilitation of commercial properties, and encourages increased levels of capital investment. Chipotle Mexican grill's tenancy will include significant tenant improvements, Further, Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards for the proposed Type 47 ABC license will maintain a safe and attractive environment. Finally, Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. Chipotle Mexican Grill is proposing to locate in a commercial area and its operations will be compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. Chipotle Mexican Grill is proposing to open a new eating establishment in the city. The site will be in compliance with all standards of SAMC Section 41- 196(g) for the on- premise sale of alcoholic beverages (Exhibit 6). These 25 operational standards will mitigate potential impacts on the adjacent uses and ensure the use does not become an attractive nuisance to the community. Police Department Analysis The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for the sale and service of alcoholic beverages and after -hours operation in order to ensure that the potential crime and nuisance behaviors associated with alcohol consumption are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For on -sale licenses the Police Department analyzes the crime rate in the area using the standards and definitions contained in the Business and Professions Code Section 23948.4(c)(2), 31 E -6 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -44 December 8, 2014 Page 5 which also are utilized by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). This section defines "reported crimes" as criminal homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny theft, and motor vehicle theft, combined with all arrests for other crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors, except traffic citations. The Police Department then compares the number of such crimes in the reporting district as compared to the number of crimes in other reporting districts. In keeping with the standard used by State ABC and Business and Professions Code, should the Police Department determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater number of reported crimes than the average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department will consider this information in making its recommendation. The project at 629 South Harbor Blvd, is located in Reporting District No. 66, Reporting District No. 66 ranks 23`d out of 102 reporting districts in the number of police related calls for service. This reporting district is approximately nine percent below the 20 percent threshold established by the State for high crime. The Police Department contends that the operational standards applicable to an on -sale ABC license will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the surrounding community. Public Notification The project site is located within the boundaries of Santa Anita Neighborhood Association and is near the Riverview West Neighborhood Association. Staff contacted the presidents of the both associations, who identified no concerns with the project. The project site was also posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter, and mailed notices were sent to all property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of printing of this report, no areas of concern were raised, nor had any correspondence, either written or electronic, been received from any members of the public. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for further review per Section 15301. The Class 1 exemption allows the operating, permitting and licensing of existing private structures with negligible or no expansion of the existing use. The proposed application is to approve an ABC license and allow the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits within an existing structure that is already served by municipal services, such as roadways, utilities, and parking. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2014 -102 will be filed for this project. Strategic Plan Alignment Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 3 Economic Development, Objective No. 2 (create new opportunities for business /job growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies). 31 E -7 Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -44 December 8, 2014 Page 6 Conclusion Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -44.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. The applicant is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2014- 44 for a Type 47 (on -sale general) Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to allow the sales of beer, wine and distilled spirits for the property located at 629 South Harbor Boulevard. B. Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -44 came before the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana for a duly noticed public hearing on December 8, 2014. C. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41 -196 requires a conditional use permit for the sale of alcoholic beverages for on -site consumption. D. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41 -638 authorizes the Planning Commission to approve a conditional use permit upon making certain findings: 1. Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community? The proposed Type 47 ABC license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant's customers by allowing them the ability to purchase beer, wine and distilled spirits with their food. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food - related amenity. Standards are applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. Resolution No. 2014 -46 Page 1 of 4 31 E -18 2. Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity? The proposed Type 47 ABC license for the on -sale consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits at this location will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because operational standards to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. Furthermore, the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits in the restaurant is intended to be incidental to the primary use as an eating establishment. 3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area? The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow the restaurant to compete with other nearby restaurants that also offer alcoholic beverages for sale to their guests and other visitors. Moreover, the offering of alcoholic beverages allows Chipotle Mexican Grill to remain economically viable and contributes to the overall success of the commercial district, helping to decrease the number of vacant spaces that may affect the economic viability of the area. 4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use? The proposed project will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and standards imposed on a restaurant selling beer, wine and distilled spirits pursuant to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. The facility will be maintained as a full- service, bona -fide eating establishment, having the suitable kitchen facilities and supplying an assortment of foods commonly ordered at various hours of the day. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than one percent of the gross floor area for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is below the maximum threshold established by the SAMC. 5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan of the City? Resolution No. 2014 -46 Page 2 of 4 31 E -19 The proposed use will not adversely affect the City's General Plan. The granting of this conditional use permit supports policies contained in the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for goods and services. Providing a variety of full- service restaurants that feature alcohol beverages on their menus offers additional dining options for Santa Ana residents and visitors. Furthermore, Policy 2.8 of the Land Use Element promotes the rehabilitation of commercial properties, and encourages increased levels of capital investment. Chipotle Mexican Grill's tenancy will include significant tenant improvements. Further, Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards for the proposed Type 47 ABC license will maintain a safe and attractive environment. Finally, Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. Chipotle Mexican Grill is proposing to locate in a commercial area and its operations will be compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. E. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act the recommended action is exempt for further review per Section 15301. The Class 1 exemption allows the operating, permitting and licensing of existing private structures with negligible or no expansion of the existing use. The proposed application is to approve an ABC license and allow the sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits within an existing structure that is already served by municipal services, such as roadways, utilities, and parking. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2014 -102 will be filed for this project. Section 2.

Adopt a resolution that reestablishes the Basic Classification and Compensation Plan for classifications of employment designated as unrepresented Executive Management and rescinds provisions of Resolution 91 -066. DISCUSSION In 1991, the City Council adopted Resolution 91 -066, which replaced Resolution 89 -087. These resolutions established the job classification, compensation and benefit plan for unrepresented Executive Management and Middle Management personnel Resolution 91 -066 has been amended numerous times by the City Council over the years and while these amendments legally revised specific provisions of the Resolution, provisions of the Resolution include original language which no longer applies. For example, Resolution 91 -066 establishes the compensation and benefit plant for the City's Middle Managers; however, these employees formed the Santa Ana Management Association (SAMA) bargaining unit in September of 2002 and since that time have negotiated numerous Memoranda of Understanding with the City that provide the compensation and benefit levels relevant to that group. The proposed resolution pertains exclusively to Executive Management. It eliminates inapplicable language and clarifies existing benefits for Executive Managers, including a reconfiguration of the Retirement Health Savings Plan to convert the 1.75% City Medical Retirement Subsidy Plan contribution into a 1.25% base pay increase, which will then be deposited into individual employee RHS accounts. This proposed resolution also makes a 401 (a) deferred compensation plan available to executive managers, as permitted by law, should City Council adopt such a plan in the future. Under this plan, an Executive Management employee, at his or her sole discretion, may deposit into the City's 401(x) plan a portion of his or her 55A -1 Amendment to Executive Management Compensation Plan January 20, 2015 Page 2 compensation up to the maximum amount permitted by law. There will be no City contribution into this plan. The proposed resolution also allows Executive Managers to receive the same stipend for use of a personal phone or tablet in lieu of City - issued equipment at the same level afforded to other management employees. Finally, the proposed resolution adjusts the salary for the Executive Director of Planning & Building job classification by 17.5 %. Two recent recruitments to fill this position have resulted in a lack of applicants who are currently in this position in cities of similar size and complexity as Santa Ana. A salary survey revealed that Santa Ana's position is significantly undercompensated compared to these comparable cities. As this position is instrumental to one of the key operations of the City, a competitive salary is necessary to attract and retain the best qualified candidate. Therefore, an equity adjustment is recommended to compensate the position properly when compared to positions in other cities with equivalent scope and level of responsibility. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #7 — Team Santa Ana, Objective #6, Provide a positive workplace environment that supports the health of its employees and celebrates its success and goals. FISCAL IMPACT The total cost for -the proposed increase to the Executive Director of Planning & Building job classification is $16,152 for the remainder of the fiscal year. Funds are available in the affected departmental salary account (no. 01116500- 61000). There is no fiscal impact associated with the other items. ..� WI Edward S.

As a result there are many amendments to these resolutions, each addressing one or more of the subject employment groups. The proposed Basic Classification and Compensation Plan for these group employees and all represented and non - represented part-time resolution. It deletes obsolete language contained in the original certain provisions relevant to resolution re- establishes the s — all represented full -time employees - under a single resolutions and presents the Classification and Compensation Plan in simplified form, with exhibits titles and compensation levels. The specific employment provisions re by Agreement, and are outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding City and each bargaining unit. 55B -1 delineating classification levant to each group .are established between the Amendment to Classification and Compensation Plan January 20, 2015 Page 2 The proposed resolution establishes two new classification titles, Treasury Services Specialist and Park Ambassador. Treasury Services Specialist will assist in the Finance and Management Services Agency's money management process, including monitoring the investment market and the City's cash flow. Park Ambassador will include a number of specialized duties that promote the positive use of City parks through increased customer service and problem prevention. It is also proposed that the title of Treasury Manager in the Finance and Management Services Agency be changed to Treasury and Customer Service Manager to accurately reflect the full scope of duties and responsibilities assigned to the position. This title change does not involve a change in compensation. Finally, the proposed resolution transfers the Administrative Management classification of Police Systems Manager from the Santa Ana Management Association (SAMA) bargaining unit to the Police Management Association (PIMA) bargaining unit in consideration of the closer community of interest with police management positions.

There is no hard cost required for the City to participate in this program. Company, Inc. ( Figtree), and the offered by Figtree provides a iers can install renewable energy t are financed through a special and no dedicated staff resources Assembly Bills 811 (signed into law on July 21, 2008) and 474 (effective January 1, 2010) amended Chapter 29 of Part 3 of Division 7 of the California Streets & Highways Code. The bills authorize a legislative body to designate an area within which public entities and property owners may enter into voluntary contractual assessments to finance the installation of certain renewable energy sources, energy efficiency, and /or water efficiency improvements that are permanently fixed to real property. The financing for these improvements has come to be known as PACE — Property Assessed Clean Energy. The PACE financing program allows property owners in participating cities and counties to finance approved energy- saving improvements on their property. If a property owner chooses to participate, the installed improvements would be financed through the issuance of bonds. The bonds are secured by a voluntary contractual assessment levied on such owner's property, with no 55C -1 Resolution — Consenting to the Inclusion of Santa Ana Properties in the Figtree Program January 20, 2015 Page 2 obligation to the local government or other participating jurisdictions. Property owners who wish to participate in this voluntary program agree to repay the amount borrowed through the contractual assessment collected together with their property taxes. In most cases, when property is sold, the finance amount transitions to the new owner; however, applicants are advised to consult their mortgage company for confirmation. PACE financing is available for eligible improvements on both residential and nonresidential properties. In September 2013, City Council adopted a resolution allowing Santa Ana residential property owners to participate in the California Home Energy Renovation Opportunity Program (California HERO), one of several PACE financing providers. To facilitate implementation of the program within the Santa Ana jurisdiction, the Council action included approval of a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) membership in the Western Riverside Council of Governments. Since the implementation, Santa Ana residential property owners have completed over 106 projects at a cost of $2,165,585, with an additional $20,842,504 of financing in progress. As with the California HERO program, the Figtree Program requires JPA membership to operate the program on behalf of the City. Associate membership in the California Enterprise Development Authority is needed to make financing available to property owners in Santa Ana. By approving the Figtree program, the City will provide Santa Ana residential and commercial property owners with access to competitive financing options for renewable energy, and energy- and water- efficiency improvements citywide. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #5 Community Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability, Objective #2 (expand opportunities for conservation and environmental sustainability). Approval of this item also supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #3 Economic Development, Objective #5 (leverage private investment that results in tax base expansion and job creation citywide), FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this recommended action. All Figtree Program administrative costs are covered through an initial administrative fee included in the property owner's voluntary contractual assessment, and an annual administrative fee which is also collected W perty o nye�/r/'s tax bill. 4/ avipo r Executive Director Public Works Agency FM(MM /CK Exhibits; 1.

DAVID CAVAZOS City Manager 55C -11 EXHIBIT B Sample CEDA Resolution of Intention 55C -12 RESOLUTION CALIFORNIA ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY DECLARING INTENTION TO FINANCE INSTALLATION OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATION RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES, ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND WATER EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTS IN THE COUNTY OF WHEREAS, the California Enterprise Development Authority ( "CEDA ") is a joint powers authority authorized and existing pursuant to Joint Powers Act (Government Code Section 6500 et seq.) and that certain Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (the "Agreement ") dated as of June 1, 2006, by and among the cities of Eureka, Lancaster and Selma; and WHEREAS, CEDA is authorized under the Agreement, Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code of the State of California and Chapter 29 of Part 3 of Division 7 of the Streets & Highways Code of the State of California ( "Chapter 29 ") to finance the installation of distributed generation renewable energy sources, energy efficiency and water efficiency improvements that are permanently fixed to real property ( "Authorized Improvements "); and WHEREAS, CEDA has obtained authorization from the County (the "County") to enter into contractual assessments for the financing of the installation of Authorized Improvements in the County; and WHEREAS, CEDA desires to declare its intention to establish a Figtree PACE program ( "Figtree PACE ") in the County, pursuant to which CEDA, subject to certain conditions set forth herein, would enter into contractual assessments to finance the installation of Authorized Improvements in the County. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CALIFORNIA ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY, AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Findings. The Board of Directors hereby finds and determines the following: (a) The above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference. (b) Energy and water conservation efforts, including the promotion of Authorized Improvements to residential, commercial, industrial, or other real property, are necessary to address the issue of global climate change and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the County. (c) The upfront cost of making residential, commercial, industrial, or other real property more energy and water efficient, along with the fact that most Exhibit Q 55C -13 commercial loans for that purpose are due on the sale of the property, prevents many property owners from installing Authorized Improvements. (d) A public purpose will be served by establishing a contractual assessment program, to be known as Figtree PACE, pursuant to which CEDA will finance the installation of Authorized Improvements to residential, commercial, industrial, or other real property in the County. Section 2. Determination of Public Interest. The Board of Directors hereby determines that (a) it would be convenient, advantageous, and in the public interest to designate an area, which shall encompass the entire geographic territory within the boundaries of the County, within which CEDA and property owners within the County may enter into contractual assessments to finance the installation of Authorized Improvements pursuant to Chapter 29 and (b) it is in the public interest for CEDA to finance the installation of Authorized Improvements in the County pursuant to Chapter 29, Section 3. Identification of Authorized Improvements. CEDA hereby declares its intention to make contractual assessment financing available to property owners to finance installation of Authorized Improvements, including but not limited to those improvements detailed in the Report described in Section 8 hereof (the `Report "), as that Report may be amended from time to time. Section 4. Identification of Boundaries. Contractual assessments may be entered into by property owners located within the entire geographic territory of the County including unincorporated territory within County Boundaries. A property owner located within a City within the County may enter into contractual assessments with CEDA only after such City has adopted a resolution to authorize participation in the PACE Program. Section 5. Proposed Financing Arrangements. Under Chapter 29, CEDA may issue bonds, notes or other forms of indebtedness (the 'Bonds') pursuant to Chapter 29 that are payable by contractual assessments. Division 10 (commencing with Section 8500) of the Streets & Highways Code of the State (the "Improvement Bond Act of 1915 ") shall apply to any indebtedness issued pursuant to Chapter 29, insofar as the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 is not in conflict with Chapter 29. The creditworthiness of a property owner to participate in the financing of Authorized Improvements will be based on the criteria developed by Figtree Energy Financing (the "Program Administrator ") upon consultation with Figtree PACE Program underwriters or other financial representatives, CEDA general counsel and bond counsel, and as shall be approved by the Board of Directors of CEDA. In connection with indebtedness issued under the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 that are payable from contractual assessments, serial and /or term improvement bonds or other indebtedness shall be issued in such series and shall mature in such principal amounts and at such times (not to exceed 20 years from the second day of September next following their date) and at such rate or rates of interest (not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable 55C -14 law) as shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of the Issuance and sale of the indebtedness. The provisions of Part 11.1 of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 shall apply to the calling of the bonds. It is the intention of the Board of Directors to create a special reserve fund for the bonds under Part 16 of the Improvement Bond Act of 1915. Neither CEDA, nor any of its members participating in the Figtree PACE Program, shall advance available surplus funds from its treasury to cure any deficiency in the redemption fund to be created with respect to the indebtedness; provided, however, that this determination shall not prevent CEDA or any of its members from, in their sole discretion, so advancing funds. The Bonds may be refunded under Division 11.5 of the California Streets and Highways Code or other applicable laws permitting refunding, upon the conditions specified by and upon determination of CEDA. CEDA hereby authorizes the Program Administrator, upon consultation with CEDA general counsel, bond counsel and the Figtree PACE underwriter, to commence preparation of documents and take necessary steps to prepare for the issuance of bonds, notes or other forms of indebtedness as authorized by Chapter 29. In connection with the issuance of bonds payable from contractual assessments, CEDA expects to obligate itself, through a covenant with the owners of the bonds, to exercise its foreclosure rights with respect to delinquent contractual assessment installments under specified circumstances. Section 6. Public Hearing. Pursuant to the Act, CEDA hereby orders that a public hearing be held before CEDA Board (the "Board "), at 550 Bercut Drive, Suite G, Sacramento, CA 95811, on at A_, for the purposes of allowing interested persons to object to, or inquire about, the proposed Figtree PACE Program. The public hearing may be continued from time to time as determined by the Board for a time not exceeding a total of 180 days. At the time of the hearing, the Report described in Section 8 hereof shall be summarized, and the Board shall afford all persons who are present an opportunity to comment upon, object to, or present evidence with regard to the proposed Figtree PACE Program, the extent of the area proposed to be included within the boundaries of the assessment district, the terms and conditions of the draft assessment contract described in Section 8 hereof (the "Contract "), or the proposed financing provisions. Following the public hearing, CEDA may adopt a resolution confirming the Report (the "Resolution Confirming Report ") or may direct the Report's modification in any respect, or may abandon the proceedings. The Board hereby orders the publication of a notice of public hearing once a week for two successive weeks. Two publications in a newspaper published once a week or more often, with at least five days intervening between the respective publication dates not counting such publication dates are sufficient. The period of notice will commence upon the first day of publication and terminate at the end of the fourteenth day. The first publication shall occur not later than 20 days before the date of the public hearing. 55C -15 Section 7, Notice to Water and Electric Providers. Pursuant to Section 5898.24 of the Streets & Highways Code, written notice of the proposed contractual assessment program within the County to all water and electric providers within the boundaries of the County has been provided. Section 8. Report. The Board hereby directs the Program Administrator to prepare the Report and file said Report with the Board at or before the time of the public hearing described in Section 6 hereof containing all of the following: (a) A map showing the boundaries of the territory within which contractual assessments are proposed to be offered, as set forth in Section 4 hereof. (b) A draft contractual assessment contract (the "Contract ") specifying the terms and conditions of the agreement between CEDA and a property owner. (c) A statement of CEDA's policies concerning contractual assessments including all of the following: (1) Identification of types of Authorized Improvements that may be financed through the use of contractual assessments. (2) Identification of the CEDA official authorized to enter into contractual assessments on behalf of CEDA. (3) A maximum aggregate dollar amount of contractual assessments. (4) A .method for setting requests from property owners for financing through contractual assessments in priority order in the event that requests appear likely to exceed the authorization amount. (d) A plan for raising a capital amount required to pay for work performed in connection with contractual assessments. The plan may include the sale of a bond or bonds or other financing relationship pursuant to Section 5898.28 of Chapter 29. The plan (1) shall include a statement of, or method for determining, the interest rate and time period during which contracting property owners would pay any assessment, (ii) shall provide for any reserve fund or funds, and (iii) shall provide for the apportionment of all or any portion of the costs incidental to financing, administration and collection of the contractual assessment program among the consenting property owners and CEDA. A report on the results of the discussions with the County Auditor- Controller described in Section 10 hereof, concerning the additional fees, if any, that will be charged to CEDA for inclusion of the proposed contractual assessments on the general property tax roll of the County, and a plan for financing the payment of those fees.

DISCUSSION The CaliforniaFIRST Program provides a mechanism by which residential and commercial property owners can install renewable energy systems, and energy- and water - efficient improvements that are financed through a special property tax assessment. Approval of this recommended action will make this financing available to property owners in Santa Ana. There is no hard cost and no dedicated staff resources required for the City to participate in this program. Assembly Bills 811 (signed into law on July 21, 2008) and 474 (effective January 1, 2010) amended Chapter 29 of Part 3 of Division 7 of the California Streets & Highways Code. The bills authorize a legislative body to designate an area within which public entities and property owners may enter into voluntary contractual assessments to finance the installation of certain renewable energy sources, energy- efficiency, and /or water- efficiency improvements that are permanently fixed to real property. The financing for these improvements has come to be known as PACE — Property Assessed Clean Energy. The PACE financing program allows property owners in participating cities and counties to finance approved energy- saving improvements on their property. If a property owner chooses to participate, the installed improvements would be financed through the issuance of bonds. The bonds are secured by a voluntary contractual assessment levied on the owner's property, with no obligation to the local government or other participating jurisdictions. Property owners who wish to participate in this voluntary program agree to repay the amount borrowed through a contractual assessment collected with their property taxes. In most cases, when property is sold, the finance amount transitions to the new owner; however, applicants are advised to consult their mortgage 55D -1 Resolution— Consenting to the Inclusion of Santa Ana Properties in the CaliforniaFIRST Program January 20, 2015 Page 2 company for confirmation. PACE financing is available for eligible improvements on both residential and nonresidential properties. In September 2013, City Council adopted a resolution allowing Santa Ana residential property owners to participate in the California Home Energy Renovation Opportunity Program (California HERO), one of several PACE financing providers. To facilitate implementation of the program within the Santa Ana jurisdiction, the Council action included approval of a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) membership in the Western Riverside Council of Governments. Since the implementation, Santa Ana residential property owners have completed over 106 projects at a cost of $2,165,585, with an additional $20,842,504 of financing in progress. As with the California HERO program, the CallforniaFIRST program also operates through a joint powers authority: the California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA), co- sponsored by the League of California Cities and the California Association of Counties. Santa Ana Community Development Agency has worked on projects with the CSCDA since 1991. By approving the CaliforniaFIRST program, the City will provide Santa Ana residential and commercial property owners with access to competitive financing options for renewable energy, and energy - and water- efficiency improvements citywide. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #5 Community Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability, Objective #2 (expand opportunities for conservation and environmental sustainability). Approval of this item also supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #3 Economic Development, Objective #5 (leverage private investment that results in tax base expansion and job creation citywide). FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this recommended action. All CaliforniaFIRST administrative costs are covered through an initial administrative fee included in the property owner's voluntary contractual assessment and an annual administrative fee which is also collected on the property owner's tax bill.

The City desires to allow the owners of property ( "Participating Property Owners ") within the incorporated territory of the City to participate in the CaliforniaFIRST Program and to allow California Communities to conduct assessment proceedings under Chapter 29 within the incorporated territory of the City and to issue Bonds under the 1915 Act to finance the Improvements. E. California Communities will conduct assessment proceedings under Chapter 29 and issue Bonds under the 1915 Act to finance Improvements. The City will not be responsible for the conduct of any assessment proceedings; the levy or collection of assessments or any required remedial action in the case of delinquencies in such assessment Exhibit 1 55D -3 payments; or the issuance, sale or administration of the Bonds or any other bonds issued in connection with the CaliforniaFIRST Program, Section 2.

(3) The issuance of Bonds will occur following receipt of a final judgment in a validation action filed by California Communities pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 860 that the Bonds are legal obligations of California Communities, Section 4. Pursuant to the requirements of Chapter 29, California Communities has prepared and will update from time to time the "Program Report" for the CaliforniaFIRST Program (the "Program Report"), and California Communities will undertake assessment proceedings and the financing of Improvements as set forth in the Program Report. Section 5. The appropriate officials and staff of the City are hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver such closing certificates, requisitions, agreements and related documents as are reasonably required by California Communities in accordance with the Program Report to implement the CaliforniaFIRST Program for Participating Property Owners. Section 6. The City Council hereby finds that adoption of this Resolution is not a "project" under the California Environmental Quality Act, because the Resolution does not involve any commitment to a specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment, as contemplated by Title 14, California 55D -4 Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(4).

OPTIONS: A. Begin the Park Ambassador Program and the Police Department's Park Enforcement Liaison Program. B. Continue the existing armed Park Ranger Program. C. Begin recruitment of new armed Park Rangers, such as retired Sheriff Deputies. DISCUSSION The Park Ranger Program began in 1981 and evolved from Rangers who carried no weapons to Rangers carrying guns beginning in 1991. In the last 10 years, crime in the city including crime in the parks has decreased. At the same time, the need to enhance customer relations with park and recreation users and the ability to immediately report on needed repairs, graffiti removal, and vandalism in the City's park and recreation facilities has increased. Quickly responding to park and recreation customer needs is a key strategy in keeping the park system safe and wholesome for the public. In the last 12 years there were several recruitment efforts to hire retired police officers as part time Park Rangers. Most of the applicants that applied and passed the background and got hired were retired Police Officers from the Santa Ana Police Department. The City currently has five 20 -hour part time Park Rangers that carry guns and report to the Parks and Recreation Agency. Four of the five Rangers are CalPERS retirees. In 2012 the City was put on notice by CaIPERS 65C -1 Park Ranger /Ambassador Options and City Manager Recommendation January 20, 2015 Page 2 that CaIPERS retirees cannot be hired for more than a short temporary basis. The average employment service of the CalPERS part time Park Rangers is seven and a half years. In 2013 the City began making plans to develop a solution that would enhance the safety of the park and recreation system and at the same time enhance customer relations to the public. These planning efforts concluded and the recommended action (Option A) is to deploy the Park Ambassador Program and add a park enforcement focus area to the Police Department's Field Operations Special Enforcement Team. The job flyer for fifteen part time Park Ambassadors is attached. Funding for the part time Park Ambassadors is provided for in the FY 14 -15 approved Parks and Recreation Agency budget. Once the City Council approves the creation of the Park Ambassador Job Classification, Personnel Services will proceed in facilitating the selection of the Park Ambassadors. The one non CalPERS Park Ranger will be offered the opportunity to continue working on park and recreation customer relations. The four CalPERS retiree Park Rangers were given a 60 -day notice of termination with February 18 being their last day of employment. The Rangers have done an excellent job throughout the years. The most efficient way to continue and enhance the Ranger's law enforcement duties is to transfer this responsibility to the Police Department. Unity of command and follow up to crimes in parks such as investigating patterns of vandalism in the park system and other crimes will ensure safer park and recreational facilities. The Police Department has assigned a corporal as the full time Park Enforcement Liaison Officer who will take direction from the Department's Field Operations Special Enforcement Team. Safety and security of the City's park and recreation facilities will be enhanced through the benefit of the Police Department's resources such as dispatching of regular patrol services, horse patrol and crime analysis support. When the transfer of park law enforcement responsibilities from the Parks and Recreation Agency to the Police Department was discussed at the October 27 Parks, Recreation, Education, and Youth (PREY) Council Committee meeting, the Police Chief reported on a crime analysis study of calls for public safety services and self- initiated activity at City parks. An estimated 11,000 calls for services were received in the last five years with Santa Ana Police patrol officers handling 82% of those calls while the Park Rangers handled 18 %. This statistic confirms that the majority of Park Ranger duties do not involve public safety services. The full -time corporal assigned as the Park Enforcement Liaison Officer will help make sure that the parks and recreation facilities become even better served by Police services. In addition, efficient risk management of armed personnel should be under the Police Chief's direction. The City's resources for proper training and supervision of armed personnel are in the Police Department. A recent survey conducted by staff showed that this is the standard approach in all cities in Southern California. There are no armed park rangers in any city in Southern California except for three armed Park Rangers in the City of Long Beach and they now report to the Police Department. 65C -2 Park Ranger /Ambassador Options and City Manager Recommendation January 20, 2015 Page 3 Option B, would require rescinding the 60 -day notice of separation to the four part time Park Rangers so they can continue to perform their duties. Whether they continue in Parks and Recreation or begin working in the Police Department, the City would be in violation of the CalPERS rule that CalPERS employers should not hire CalPER retirees for more than a short temporary basis. Continuing to keep the Rangers in the payroll system puts both the retiree and the City at risk. Option C would be to begin recruitment of part time Park Rangers that qualify to carry guns, are not CalPERS retirees, and report to the Police Department. Based on the experience from previous recruitments, the process will be a long one and the outcome of hiring retired Police Officers or Sheriff Deputies from non CaiPERS systems would be expected to be poor. Waiting for hopeful results from this option would delay the implementation of the Park Ambassador Program and the start of enhancing security to the park and recreation facilities by the Police Department though their Park Enforcement Liaison approach. The steps to implement Option A would Involve the Police Department working closely with the Parks and Recreation Agency to ensure all park users and neighborhoods are aware of these new efforts. Both Police and Parks and Recreation will make sure that feedback from the community is taken into consideration as the deployment efforts of Option A takes place. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Affirming Option A of this item allows the City to meet Goal #1 Community Safety and Objective #1, to modernize the Community Policing philosophy to improve customer service, crime prevention and traffic /pedestrian /bicycle safety. The strategy (1b.) will be supported so that that enhancement to the development of a community - policing plan based on community input to deliver crime prevention /community policing /traffic - pedestrian safety programs in a consistent and uniformed manner takes place. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. Funding is included in the fiscal year 2014- 2015 budget.

On August 5, 2013 the City authorized the appointment of David Cavazos as City Manager pursuant to the attached employment agreement. Section 2.2.1 General Benefits, states in part "City Manager shall receive all such other benefits that are applicable to Executive Managers of the City ". The City Council has recently authorized changes to the benefits for Executive Management as follows: Reconfiguration of the Retirement Health Savings Plan (RHS) to convert the 1.75% City Medical Retirement Subsidy Plan contribution into a 1.25% base pay increase, which will then be deposited into individual employee RHS accounts. A 401 (a) deferred compensation plan available to Executive Managers, as permitted by law, should City Council adopt such a plan in the future. Under this plan, an Executive Management employee, at his or her sole discretion, may deposit into the City's 401(a) plan a portion of his or her compensation up to the maximum amount permitted by law. There will be no City contribution into this plan. • Executive Management shall be eligible to receive the same stipend for use of a personal phone or tablet in lieu of City - issued equipment at the same level afforded to other management employees. 65D -1 Second Amendment to City Manager Employment Agreement January 20, 2015 Page 2 This amendment to the employment agreement with the City Manager will make available the RHS and 401(a) benefits, as he has elected not to accept the personal equipment stipend. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #7 — Team Santa Ana, Objective #6. Provide a positive workplace environment that supports the health of its employees and celebrates its success and goals. FISCAL IMPACT There is no anticipated cost to these benefits as the cost of the 1.25% salary increase to be deposited into the RHS is offset by the elimination of the 1.75% Medical Retirement Subsidy Plan contribution. The participation in the 401(a) plan is voluntary and funded by employee contributions.

Adopt a resolution certifying the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REA /FEIR (SCH #2010051060); 2. Adopt the Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project; 3. Adopt the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project; and 4. Approve the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project; BACKGROUND This action will complete the environmental phase of the Santa Ana /Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project in preparation for transferring project oversight to the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) for the implementation, operation, and maintenance phases of the project. While OCTA will assume primary responsibility, the City will remain a participant in the design, construction, and eventual streetcar operations. The OCTA Go Local Program was initiated in 2006 to identify projects that would provide last -mile transit connectivity to the Metrolink backbone commuter rail system in Orange County. The focus of the program was to conceive these transportation options at the local level. The program helped to identify the best projects for funding consideration through a competitive process that ultimately led to partnerships between OCTA and the local agency awardees. In 2007, a collaborative effort between the cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove led to a project concept which was one of two projects selected by OCTA to continue through the Go Local 4 -step process. In Step 1, a feasibility study was completed in 2007 that explored a fixed rail connection to Metrolink. Step 2 was initiated in 2008 and involves the subject environmental analysis. The 75A -1 Resolution Certifying the REA/FEIR Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project January 20, 2015 Page 2 remaining Go Local Steps 3 and 4 (Preliminary Engineering /Final Design, and Construction) will be led by OCTA. Santa Ana and Garden Grove have collaborated with OCTA on the environmental analysis of the Fixed Guideway Project. Santa Ana took the lead role for the California Environmental Quality Act review and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) was the lead agency for the National Environmental Policy Act review. A draft of the Environmental Assessment /Draft Environmental Impact Report (EA /DEIR) was completed on May 22, 2014. Following public circulation of the EA /DEIR, public comments were received and addressed in the Revised Environmental Assessment/Final Environmental Impact Report (REA /FEIR). Concurrent with the environmental analysis, an Alternatives Analysis (AA) was also prepared. The AA established three build alternatives to be analyzed in the EA /DEIR: Streetcar Alternative 1, Streetcar Alternative 2, and a Transportation System Management (TSM) Alternative. Throughout the process, staff worked closely with OCTA and FTA to ensure that the EA /DEIR met all federal eligibility requirements for grant funding through the FTA Section 5309 New Starts /Small Starts Program. The draft AA was also completed on May 22, 2014 and the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) was identified by Council on August 5, 2014. Staff and the consultant team recommend certifying the REA /FEIR; adopting the LPA with Streetcar Alternative 1 (Operations & Maintenance Facility Site B [west of Raitt Street] and 4th Street Parking Scenario A [parallel parking]) as the Santa Ana /Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project; and approving the project by adopting this proposed resolution (Exhibit 1). Upon certification, OCTA will submit a draft Finding of No Significant Impact ( FONSI) to FTA for approval. Once the FONSI is approved by FTA, the environmental phase of the project will be complete. City staff and the consultant team will then transfer all project documentation to OCTA for implementation. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 Community Facilities & Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy G (develop and implement the City's Capital Improvement Program in coordination with the Community Investment and Deferred Maintenance Plans). Approval of this item also supports Goal #3 Economic Development, Objective #2 (create new opportunities for business /job growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies), Strategy C (support business development and job growth along transit corridors through the completion of critical transit plans /projects including: The Fixed Guideway Project, Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center Master Plan, Complete Streets and General Plan Circulation Element update). Approval of this item also supports Goal #3 Economic Development, Objective #4 (continue to pursue objectives that shape downtown Santa Ana into a thriving, culturally diverse, shopping, 75A -2 Resolution Certifying the REA/FEIR Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project January 20, 2015 Page 3 dining, and entertainment destination), Strategy B (create a comprehensive program to manage parking that includes innovative strategies to provide parking, create revenue and enhance accessibility in the downtown). ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The REA /FEIR represents an informational document that is intended to advise public decision makers, other responsible and trustee agencies, and the general public of the potential effects of the proposed project. The City of Santa Ana distributed a Notice of Preparation (NOP) for the EA /DEIR on May 24, 2010. The NOP was distributed to the State Clearinghouse Office of Planning and Research, public agencies, utility and service providers, homeowners' associations in the project area, nearby property owners, and other individuals that may have had an interest in the project. Several public project scoping meetings were held in 2010 to identify concerns or issues from the community. The scoping meetings identified seven conceptual project alternatives including No Build, Transportation System Management (bus improvements), two Bus Rapid Transit Routes, and three Streetcar Routes. Through continued community input, these alternatives were screened down to the four alternatives presented to Council on December 20, 2010. The Reduced Set of Alternatives included the No Build alternative and those technology options that best met the needs of the community comprised of the two streetcar alternatives and a TSM alternative that included bus service improvements and signal synchronization. The EA /DEIR identified those potential impacts that could be significant and issues that would require additional analysis. The environmental issues analyzed in the EA /DEIR included: 1. Aesthetics 18. Mineral Resources 2. Agricultural and Forest Resources 19. Noise and Vibration 3. 4. Air Quality Biological Resources 20. Population and Housing 5. Coastal Zones 21. Public Services 6.

Subsequently, staff implemented an extensive outreach campaign that exceeded statutory requirements: • 3,796 postcards were prepared and sent to all properties within 500 feet of the area of potential effect (multi - residential and single -unit properties, including the owner and tenant of each property), as well as to key stakeholders who had previously participated in the environmental process. The postcards provided details of the three scheduled meetings in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. • A press release was sent out via Nixle and an announcement was made by the City Manager at a publicly televised City Council meeting at the start of the 45 -day review period. • Seven news outlets, including the OC Reporter and the Orange County Register, provided print and web coverage on the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project and the scheduled public meetings. • Information was placed prominently on the homepage of the City's website, eliciting 100,000 views in the first 30 days of the 45 -day review period. • To encourage attendance, staff contacted key stakeholders, groups, and neighborhood leaders (including those outside of the 500 -foot envelope, such as the Logan and French Park neighborhoods), and sent out an a -news release to over 2,000 neighborhood leaders in advance of the meetings. A copy of the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project AA /DEIR was placed at seven locations, including five in Santa Ana, one in the OCTA office in Orange, one location in Garden Grove, and a digital copy online, for public review. • Three public meetings were held along the potential Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project route at various times to accommodate as many people as possible. Information, interpretation and translation services were provided in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Flyers in all three languages were placed at every community and senior center in the city, providing information on where to find the AA /DEIR, the website address, the 45 -day review period, and how to submit comments. Notice of the public meetings and calls for public comment were also promoted on the City's social media channels several times throughout the 45 -day review period. To encourage input, flyers on the 45 -day review period and calls for comments were also distributed as handouts at neighborhood meetings throughout the 45 -day review period. • Information was provided to the Santa Ana Unified School District ( SAUSD) Public Information Office and various SAUSD staff, to extend notification to those interested. 75A -4 Resolution Certifying the REA/FEIR Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project January 20, 2015 Page 5 The public comment period ended on July 7, 2014.

The REA /FEIR documents all written and oral comments received during the public review period and contains the City's responses. The comments received from the public and from the public agencies did not require any new analysis or result in major changes in the REA /FEIR. The Notice of Availability for the REA /FEIR was released on January 5, 2015. The REA /FEIR identified four environmental categories that will result in less than significant impacts through the adoption of feasible mitigation measures. Further, the REA /FEIR identified one environmental category that will result in significant environmental impacts, even with implementation of mitigation measures. The attached "Findings and Facts in support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project State Clearinghouse No. 2010051060" (Exhibit 2) summarizes the evidence relied upon by the City in making these findings. This evidence is drawn from the NOP, the comments and responses to comments on the EA /DEIR, the REA /FEIR, and other evidence presented to the City, including all other information in the administrative record. Additionally, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared for this project and will be adopted along with the proposed resolution. The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (Exhibit 3) is found in Chapter 4 of the REA /FEIR (Exhibit 4). FISCAL IMPACT is no fiscal impact associated with this specific action.

The REA/FEIR incorporates the following documents by reference as part of the environmental record for the proposed project: (1) Environmental Assessment /Draft EIR (EA/DEIR); (2) Technical Appendices to the EA/DEIR; (3) Alternative Analysis Report; and (4) REA /FEIR, which includes Responses to Comments, Corrections and Additions, and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP). The aforementioned documents, and the entirety of the Administrative Record for the proposed project, are hereby incorporated by reference into these findings. The City Council hereby further confirms it received, reviewed, and considered the information contained in the REA/FEIR and all hearings and submissions of testimony from City officials and departments, the public, other public agencies, community groups, and organizations, and finds that the REA/FEIR reflects its independent judgment and analysis. Concurrently with the adoption of these findings, the City Council adopts a Statement of Overriding Considerations (see Section 9, below) and an MMRP, attached hereto as Attachment A. Having received, reviewed, and considered the foregoing information, as well as any and all information in the Administrative Record, the City Council hereby makes the findings below pursuant to and in accordance with PRC Section 21081 and CEQA Guidelines Sections 15090 and 15091. The City Council makes the following findings: a. None of the public comments submitted to the City regarding the EA/DEIR and the REA/FEIR, including the public testimony made at three public hearings or responses to comments, present any significant new information that would require the EA /DEIR to be recirculated for additional public review. b. No new significant environmental impacts would result from new or modified mitigation measures proposed to be implemented. 1 January 2015 EfU'p'phT12 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations c. The EA/DEIR adequately analyzed project alternatives, and there are no feasible project alternatives or mitigation measures considerably different from others previously analyzed that would clearly lessen the significant environmental impacts of the project. d. Any new information in the REA/FEIR has been provided merely to clarify or amplify information in the EA/DEIR. The new information does not reveal that the proposed project would cause significant new impacts not previously identified in the EA/DEIR. In addition, PRC Section 21081 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15091 require the City Council, prior to approving the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project, to identify significant impacts of the proposed project and make one or more of three allowable findings for each of the significant impacts: a. The first allowable finding is that "changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR" (CEQA Guidelines Section 15091, subd. [a][1]). b. The second allowable finding is that "such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency' (CEQA Guidelines Section 15091, subd. [a][2]). c. The third allowable finding is that "specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the final environmental impact report" (CEQA Guidelines Section 15091, subd. [a][3]). The findings reported in Sections 4 through 8 are founded on, and hereby explicitly incorporate by reference, the analysis, facts, and discussions contained in the REA/FEIR regarding each particular environmental impact. Although Section 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines does not require findings to address environmental impacts initially identified as "less than significant," these findings will, nevertheless, fully account for all such effects identified in the REA/FEIR. A. DOGUment Format These findings have been organized into the following sections: 1. Section 1 provides an introduction to these findings. 2. Section 2 provides a summary of the project, overview of the discretionary actions required for approval of the proposed project, and a statement of the project's objectives. 3. Section 3 provides a summary of public participation in the environmental review for the proposed project. 4. Section 4 sets forth findings regarding the environmental impacts that were determined to be less than significant without mitigation. 5. Section 5 sets forth findings regarding significant or potentially significant environmental impacts. These impacts include those that the City Council has determined can be feasibly 2 January 2015 75A -12 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations mitigated to a less- than - significant level through the imposition of existing regulations, standard conditions and /or mitigation measures. In order to ensure compliance and implementation, all mitigation measures will be included in the MMRP for the proposed project and adopted as conditions of the proposed project by the City Council. 6. Section 6 sets forth findings regarding those significant or potentially significant environmental impacts that will or may result from the proposed project and which the City has determined cannot feasibly be mitigated to a less- than - significant level. 7. Section 7 sets forth findings regarding the cumulative, growth- inducing, and irreversible effects of the proposed project. 8. Section 8 sets forth findings regarding alternatives to the proposed project. 9. Section 9 sets forth a statement of overriding considerations, which identifies the benefits that would outweigh the significant, unavoidable environmental impacts associated with implementation of the proposed project. B. Custodian and Location of Records The documents and other materials that constitute the administrative record for the City's actions related to the proposed project are available at the City of Santa Ana, Planning and Building Agency, 20 Civic Center Plaza Ross Annex (M -20), Santa Ana, California 92701. The City of Santa Ana is the custodian of the Administrative Record for the proposed project. 2. PROJECT SUMMARY A. Project Location The SA -GG Fixed Guideway Study Area is located in central Orange County, California and directly accesses both the Los Angeles -San Diego -San Luis Obispo rail corridor and the Pacific Electric right -of -way (PE ROW) rail corridor. Running predominantly in an east -west direction, the corridor extends 4.2 miles through the City of Santa Ana and into the eastern portion of the City of Garden Grove. The Study Area is generally bounded by Harbor Boulevard to the west, 17th Street to the north, Grand Avenue to the east, and 15t Street to the south. The eastern terminus of the alignment is the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) and the western terminus is the Harbor Boulevard/ Westminster Avenue intersection. B. Project Description Following receipt of public comments on the EA/DEIR and after the close of the public comment period, the City Council selected Streetcar Alternative 1 with Operations & Maintenance (O & M) Facility Site B (west of Raitt Street) and 0 Street Parking Scenario A (parallel parking) as the Locally Preferred Alternative for the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project on August 5, 2014. Streetcar Alternative 1 (proposed project) would utilize the PE ROW, an abandoned and vacant rail right -of -way owned by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), through the western half of its alignment and generally operate along Santa Ana Boulevard, and 4th Street on the way to SARTC. The 4.2 -mile alignment would include 12 stations and it is anticipated that the streetcar system would operate seven days a week with 10- minute headways during 3 January 2015 75A -13 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations peak periods and 15- minute headways during off -peak periods. The streetcars would be electrically powered using an overhead contact system and a series of Traction Power Substations (TPSS) located intermittently along the alignment. The Downtown segment of the alignment would feature couplet operations with the westbound streetcar alignment on Santa Ana Boulevard, and the eastbound streetcar alignment on 4th Street. For the eastbound transition from Santa Ana Boulevard to 4th Street, a direct route would be provided from Santa Ana Boulevard along a public easement on the southern edge of Sasscer Park to 4th Street. The western terminus is located at the northeast corner of Harbor Boulevard and Westminster Avenue; the transition from the PE ROW to the western terminus site will include an elevated crossing. In addition, the proposed project would utilize the PE ROW and cross over the Santa Ana River. A new single -track bridge for the fixed guideway would be constructed immediately south of the Old Pacific Electric Santa Ana River Bridge, which is designated as a historic bridge and would remain in its current location and condition. Through the use of gates and signaling, the single -track bridge would accommodate bi- directional fixed guideway traffic. The proposed project would require the construction of an O & M Facility for streetcar operations. An O & M Facility is a stand -alone building which would meet the maintenance, repair, operational and storage needs of the proposed streetcar system. The O & M Facility accommodates daily and routine vehicle inspections, interior /exterior cleaning of the streetcars, preventative (scheduled) maintenance, unscheduled maintenance, and component change - outs. The proposed facility would also provide a venue for parking vehicles that are not in use and for rebuilding components. The O & M Facility is a rectangular site slightly larger than 2.4 acres. It is located west of Raitt Street and is bordered by 5th Street to the north and the PE ROW to the south. Located in an area zoned for industrial and commercial uses, this site is comprised of three parcels, two of which contain existing businesses and a combination of industrial buildings. The third parcel contains several residences. The proposed project alignment would utilize 4th Street between Ross Street and Mortimer Street in the eastbound direction. From east of Ross Street to French Street, 4th Street has one travel lane in each direction with head -in diagonal parking along each side of the roadway. The diagonal parking, with vehicles exiting parking spaces by backing into the travel lane, is incompatible with streetcar operations and the proposed project would convert the diagonal parking along the south side of 4th Street, between Ross Street and French Street, to parallel parking, widen the sidewalk along the south side from 12 to 20 feet, and replace streetlights and landscaping. A total of 26 on- street parking spaces would be removed. C. Discretionary Actions Implementation of the proposed project will require several actions by the City Council, including the following: • Certification of the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REA/FEIR (SCH #2010051060). The REA/FEIR evaluated the environmental impacts resulting from the proposed project, in accordance with CEQA, as amended (PRC Sections 21000 et 75A -14 January 2015 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations seq.), and the State CEQA Guidelines for Implementation of CEQA (CCR, Title 14, Sections 15000 et seq.). • Approval of the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project • Adoption of the MMRP for the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project • Adoption of the Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project The REA/FEIR would provide environmental information to responsible agencies, trustee agencies, and other public agencies that may be required to grant approvals and permits or coordinate with the City as a part of project implementation. These agencies include, but are not limited to, the following: • California Public Utilities Commission. Approval of crossings and horn - sounding exemption for the crossings at 5th and Fairview Streets. • City of Garden Grove. Various permits, including construction permits. • Southern California Regional Rail Authority. Issuance of a Right -of -Entry Permit. • Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board. Issuance of a Clean Water Act 401 Water Quality Certification, Stormwater Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System Permit, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Statewide Permit. • U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Issuance of a Clean Water Act Section 404 Permit D. Statement of Project Objectives The purpose of the proposed project is to provide a new east -west transit line in Orange County between the SARTC in the City of Santa Ana and the Harbor Boulevard/Westminster Avenue intersection in the City of Garden Grove. The primary objectives of the proposed project are as follows: • To improve transit connectivity within the Study Area; • To relieve congestion by providing alternative mobility options; • To be sensitive to the character of the community; • To increase transit options; • To improve transit accessibility to and within the Study Area; and • To provide benefits to the environment through improved air quality. Kl AIL ky /I0o]7 I IT, l4krr_1111 IATIT /_1�1 oil 1I1:7III AlIs317_tiiC�T` Meaningful public engagement was an important component of the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project from the onset. Beginning in 2008 and continuing throughout project development to March 2014, in preparation for the public review of the EA/DEIR, the City of Santa Ana conducted outreach to the Downtown businesses. The City's multi - lingual outreach team conducted door -to -door visits to approximately 230 businesses in the Downtown area, including approximately 156 businesses along 0 Street. The purpose of the outreach was to share key 5 January 2015 75A -15 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations information with Downtown business and property owners about the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project, inform them about the upcoming release of the EA/DEIR, document questions and input, and provide business owners with appropriate contact information for additional follow -up. A "Sorry We Missed You" letter and information packet was also prepared and left behind for business owners who were not available during the initial visit. The letter offered a briefing with the outreach team to review the proposed project information packet. Extensive efforts were conducted to involve the public and stakeholders in the planning for the implementation of a streetcar along the alignment and through the Downtown area. Prior to the release of the EA/DEIR, numerous meetings were held with stakeholders throughout the Study Area to obtain input and provide updates on the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project. Community meetings were held with the Lacy Neighborhood, the French Park Neighborhood, the Santiago Lofts Homeowners Association, the Santa Ana Senior Center, and many other stakeholders. Stakeholder comments were collected and recorded at each meeting. In addition, a series of Stakeholder Working Group meetings were held to involve key business people and leaders in the community. Below is a list of organizations which received presentations on the proposed project: • French Park Association • Kennedy Commission • Santa Ana Collaborative for Responsible Development • Santiago Lofts Homeowners Association • Artesia Filar Neighborhood Association • Labor Union Members • Federal Courthouse • Santa Ana Senior Center • Stakeholders Working Group • Santa Ana City Council • Santa Ana Restaurant Association • Templo Calvario • State Appellate Court • Orange County Superior Court • Rancho Santiago Community College District Board of Trustees • Lacy Neighborhood • SARTC Community Meeting to discuss the Santa Ana Train Station • Board of Directors, Santa Ana Merchants Association • Downtown Inc • Santa Ana Merchants Association • Santa Ana Unified School District • Stakeholders Working Group Advisory Committee • One -on -one briefings with 140 Downtown Businesses • Santa Ana City College • Railway Association of Southern California • Santa Ana Unified School District Board s January 2015 75A -16 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations • Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) • Everest College /Corinthian College • Santa Ana Resource Network • Orange County Business Council • Orange County Transportation Authority Transportation 2020 Committee • Federal Transit Administration • California Public Utilities Commission staff • County of Orange Supervisors and staff In addition, prior to making any key decisions on the proposed project, the City of Santa Ana initiated a public scoping process to define the appropriate range of issues to be addressed in the EA/DEIR. Four scoping meetings were conducted for the general public between June 8 and June 12, 2010. Two of these meetings were scheduled in the evening, one meeting was scheduled in the morning, and one meeting was scheduled on a Saturday afternoon, providing those community members who could not attend any of the weekday evening meetings with an opportunity to participate. Public comment opportunities were made available at each meeting. It should also be noted that articles and advertisements were published in a number of local newspapers, including several non - English publications. All information materials were presented in English, as well as Spanish. In compliance with PRC Sections 21080.4 and 21092, the Notice of Availability of the EA/DEIR for public review, beginning May 23, 2014, was filed and posted at the Orange County Clerk - Recorder's Office; advertised in the local newspaper; flyers were distributed at every community center in the City of Santa Ana; outreach was also conducted via social media; and a press release was covered by at least three different news organizations. Although not required under CEQA regulations, available data from County Assessor and City property records were used to establish a list of property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the alignment. There were 3,796 postcards delivered to property owners, business owners, tenants, and residents related to EA/DEIR availability for public review. Hard copies of the notifications and document were also made available at different locations (Santa Ana City Hall Public Works Counter, Santa Ana City Hall City Clerk's Office, Santa Ana Public Library, Salgado Center, Rosita Park, Santa Ana Train Station, Garden Grove City Hall, and OCTA), as well as online on the City of Santa Ana website. During the review period, 17 written submissions were received on the EA/DEIR from public agencies, community groups, and individuals. In addition, three public meetings were held on June 14, 17, and 19, 2014. Approximately 150 people attended the public meetings, and roughly 34 attendees gave verbal testimony at the meetings. The REA/FEIR, which contains written responses to the comment letters received during and after the 45 -day comment period and to oral testimonies during the public meetings, was completed and distributed on November 8, 2014. Distribution of the REA /FEIR entailed providing copies of the REA /FEIR to public agencies and organizations that received and /or commented on the EA/DEIR and notifying individuals who commented on the EA/DEIR or the REA/FEIR availability. The REA/FEIR was made available to the public on the City's website at http : / /santaanatransitvision.com and the locations listed above. The REA /FEIR was prepared 7 January 2015 75A -17 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations and distributed in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15088(b), which requires that written responses be provided at least 10 days prior to certifying an EIR. 4. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES THAT WERE DETERMINED TO BE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT The following environmental resource areas would not be significantly impacted by the proposed project: A. Aesthetics (pages 3 -66 and 3 -190 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project would result in the installation of overhead contact wire poles with catenary wires, new light poles, and additional traffic signals along the entire length of the proposed project alignment. These project components would introduce new vertical elements to the PE ROW and Santa Ana Boulevard. Workers and patrons of commercial establishments, motorists, and pedestrians would have limited views of the proposed improvements as they move through the area or visit commercial facilities. The visual quality associated with the Old Pacific Electric Santa Ana River Bridge, Santa Ana River Trail, Sasscer Park, the French Park and Downtown Santa Ana Historic Districts, and SARTC would not be substantially affected by the proposed project. Therefore, a less -than- significant impact related to scenic vistas, scenic resources, and visual quality would occur. • The proposed vertical elements and TPSS would not impact the low to moderate visual quality of the Study Area. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to visual character would occur. • While the lighting design, including intensity and height, has not been determined to date, in general, the lighting will be designed to direct lighting to the immediate area to minimize spillover, and will be consistent with the existing lighting in the area. However, it is possible that lighting associated with the O & M Facility and the stations /platforms located adjacent to residential neighborhoods could create a new source of lighting that might impact nighttime views in those areas. Project design features, including, but not limited to, architectural integration of all lighting fixtures with the character of the surrounding environment, use of shielded or recessed lighting, and use of low- profile walkway lights, would eliminate potential light and glare impacts. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to lighting would occur. B. Agricultural and Forest Resources (page 3 -14 of the EAIDEIR) • There are no agricultural, timberland, or forestry resources within the Study Area. The proposed project would not convert farmland to non - agricultural use; conflict with zoning for agricultural use, forest land, or timberland; conflict with Williamson Act contracts; or result in the loss or conversion of forest land to non - forest use. Therefore, no impacts related to agricultural resources, farmland, and forestry resources would occur. C. Air Quality (page 3 -156 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project is consistent with the City of Santa Ana long -term vision for transportation development and traffic congestion alleviation. Regionally, the proposed M 75A -18 January 2015 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations project would develop a mass transit infrastructure, which is a Transportation Control Measure in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Air Quality Management Plan that seeks to reduce air pollutant emissions via a reduction in vehicle trips and congestion. In addition, the proposed project is included in Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) 2012 -2035 Regional Transportation Plan /Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP /SCS), adopted on April 4, 2012. Therefore, a less -than- significant impact related to conflicting or obstructing the air quality management plan would occur. • Operational activity would increase regional emissions by less than one pound per day when compared with the emissions under the No Build Alternative. The net increase in emissions would not exceed the SCAQMD significance thresholds. Therefore, a less -than- significant impact related to violation of an air quality standard or contribution to an existing or projected air quality violation would occur. • The proposed electrically - powered streetcars would not generate localized exhaust emissions. However, changes to intersection operations as a result of project implementation could potentially increase vehicle idling and result in carbon monoxide (CO) hotspots. In addition, the proposed park- and -ride facility located on the northeast corner of the Harbor Boulevard/Westminster Avenue intersection would potentially increase localized pollutant concentrations. The CO hotspot analysis conducted for the project indicated that the proposed project would contribute less than 0.1 part per million (ppm) to the one- and eight -hour CO concentrations and would be less than the State one- and eight -hour CO standards of 20 and 9 ppm. The proposed electrically - powered streetcars would not generate diesel particulate matter. The O & M Facility would service streetcar vehicles and would require the use of solvents and related chemicals for cleaning and repair activities. However, the O & M Facility would not generate diesel emissions or be a substantial source of chemicals identified in the California Air Resources Board guidance for locating pollutant generators near sensitive populations. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to exposing sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations would occur. • The O & M Facility would require the use of solvents and related chemicals for cleaning and repair activities. However, these sources would not be used in sufficient quantities that would emit substantial odors for public complaints. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to odors would occur. D. Biological Resources (page 3 -217 of the EA/DEIR) • The Study Area is heavily developed and contains no natural biological communities. The ground disturbance footprint consists entirely of disturbed or developed land, which includes roadways, developed and undeveloped lots, parking areas, and residential and commercial developments. Literature review and field survey data determined that no special status plant or wildlife species have the potential to occur within the project's footprint and that the Study Area lacks suitable habitat that would typically support special status species or receive State or federal Endangered Species Act protections. Therefore, a less -than- significant impact related to candidate, sensitive, or special species would occur. 9 January 2015 75A -19 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations • The Santa Ana River is the only potential special aquatic feature within the Study Area. It is concrete lined and contains no wetlands or hydrophytic vegetation. Therefore, no impact related to wetlands and riparian habitat would occur. • The Study Area is already heavily developed and additional development would not interfere with wildlife movement. The Study Area does not provide a major or local wildlife corridor or travel route because it does not connect two significant habitats for either fish or wildlife species. Operational activity within the ROW may frighten urban wildlife, such as raccoons and opossums. However, operational noise would cause most animals to avoid streetcar activity. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to wildlife movement would occur. • The proposed alignment would be located within existing surface streets or within the PE ROW. Operational activities would not result in the removal of special species trees listed in the City's Tree Preservation Policy. Therefore, the proposed project would not conflict with local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as the tree preservation policy, and a less- than - significant impact related to biological resources would occur. • The Study Area is not located within a Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local (including the City of Garden Grove), regional, or State habitat conservation plan. Therefore, no impact related to conservation plans would occur. E. Architectural Resources (pages 3 -96 and 3 -191 of the EA/DEIR) • Construction and operation of the proposed project would not result in significant impacts to any architecturally significant (historic) properties, including the Old Pacific Electric Santa Ana River Bridge. Although the proposed project would require an alteration to the west abutment of the Old Pacific Electric Santa Ana River Bridge to allow the Santa Ana River Trail on both the east and west sides of the river to be separated, the abutment of the bridge is not an original component of the bridge and is not an element or feature that contributes to the historic quality of the bridge. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to architectural resources would occur. F. Geology and Soils (pages 3 -97 and 3 -192 of the EA/DEIR) • The Study Area is not within an earthquake fault zone as delineated on the most recent Alquist - Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map. There is no known evidence of a fault surface rupture expressed in the regional geomorphology and available historic aerial photographs. Given that there is no mapped earthquake fault zone within seven miles of the Study Area, the potential for fault rupture is low. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to fault rupture would occur. • The subsurface condition of the Study Area is composed mostly of alluvium that could potentially be exposed to strong seismic ground shaking. This ground shaking could damage streetcar tracks, the Santa Ana River Bridge, the Westminster Avenue Bridge, or the O & M Facility. In addition, the segment of the alignment between Harbor Boulevard and Raitt Street may be impacted by liquefaction due to the potential shallow depth to groundwater of less than 20 feet. The impacts of liquefaction could include potential 10 January 2015 75A -20 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations collapse or misalignment of at -grade rails, which may cause streetcar derailment. However, City Staff and regulatory agencies are required to review the design plans and approve the appropriate foundation treatment prior to the issuance of building permits to ensure the structure integrity of project facilities. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to seismic ground shaking and liquefaction would occur. • The topography of the Study Area is relatively flat with no significant slopes and is not mapped as being in an Earthquake- Induced Landslide Zone. There is no potential for landslides or seismically- induced landslides. Therefore, no impact related to landslides would occur. • The entire length of the alignment and the O & M Facility would be completely paved. The Study Area is in a flat, highly urbanized area, and there is little potential for soil erosion. Therefore, no impact related to soil erosion would occur. • Expansive soils are typically associated with fine - grained clayey soils that have the potential to shrink and swell with repeated changes in the moisture content. It is not anticipated that expansive soils are located near the surface in the Study Area. Therefore, no impact related to expansive soil would occur. • The Study Area is in a flat, highly urbanized area without a unique geologic feature. Therefore, no impact related to unique geologic features would occur. • The Study Area is located in an urbanized area extensively served by existing sewer infrastructure. Implementation of the proposed project would not require the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems. Therefore, no impact related to septic tanks would occur. G. Greenhouse Gas Emissions (page 3 -148 of the EA/DEIR) • Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with the proposed project would be approximately 1,224 metric tons per year and would not exceed the significance threshold of 10,000 metric tons per year. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to GHG emissions would occur. • The proposed project would be designed to reduce vehicle miles traveled - related emissions by encouraging the use of public transit by providing accessibility to activity centers that provide employment and educational opportunities, goods and services. Therefore, a less - than- significant impact related to GHG plans, policies, and regulations would occur. H. Hazards and Hazardous Materials (pages 3 -103 and 3 -193 of the EA/DEIR) • There is a potential for hazardous materials /waste spills to occur at the O & M Facility, which is of importance as this site is located 0.20 mile from John C. Fremont Elementary School at 1930 10th Street and Romero -Cruz Elementary School at 1512 Santa Ana Boulevard. The O & M Facility would store hazardous materials /waste primarily for cleaning and routine maintenance of the streetcars and tracks and would likely house cleaning chemicals, lubrication oils, and hydraulic oils. However, the storage and disposal of hazardous materials /waste would be conducted in accordance with all federal and State regulatory 11 January 2015 75A -21 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations requirements that are intended to prevent or manage hazards and /or remediate spills, including periodic site inspections for compliance with these required practices. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to hazardous materials would occur. • The proposed alignment is approximately 4.3 miles from the nearest airport (John Wayne Airport). The proposed alignment is not within an airport land use plan or near a private airstrip. Therefore, no impact related to airport hazards would occur. • The proposed project would operate both in an exclusive ROW and within mixed -flow traffic. The exclusive PE ROW portion of the proposed alignment would not block or interrupt emergency access or evacuation routes. The on- street portion of the alignment would add streetcars to mixed -flow traffic, which would also have no substantial impact on emergency access or evacuation routes. However, should a major accident or emergency occur, emergency vehicles could, with permission from OCTA, use the PE ROW as an emergency access or evacuation route. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to emergency response and evacuation plans would occur. • The proposed alignment is located in a fully urbanized area and is not located adjacent to or intermixed with wildlands. The proposed project would not subject people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death as a result of exposure to wildland fires. Therefore, no impact related to wildland fires would occur. Hydrology and Water Quality (pages 3 -186 and 3 -214 of the EAMEIR) • The proposed project would likely generate pollutants that could travel in stormwater runoff along the track alignment in daily maintenance activities. Best management practices (BMPs) designed to reduce potential stormwater pollution would reduce, if not eliminate, potential impacts to water quality. Therefore, less- than - significant impacts related to water quality, water discharge, and stormwater runoff would occur. • The proposed project is a transportation facility and would not deplete groundwater supplies. The O & M Facility would use water for maintenance activities (e.g., vehicle washing and landscaping and screening) and worker hygiene. Implementation of BMPs would ensure that water use would be minimal. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to groundwater would occur. • The existing drainage pattern of the project alignment would not be substantially altered or impacted by the proposed project. The streetcar tracks do not have gutters like a traditional road, but water that falls onto impervious surfaces associated with the track system would be collected and conveyed into the storm drain system by inlets similar to roadway inlets. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to the drainage pattern would occur. • A small portion of the Study Area is within an area of low to moderate hazard but is not expected to be inundated during the 100 -year flood. However, there are locations that would be inundated during a 100 -year flood at channel crossings and within the western portion of the proposed project alignment. In addition, the Study Area crosses the Santa Ana River. Development in these areas is required to follow applicable federal and State regulations guiding flood management. The greatest potential for flooding would be by dam 12 January 2015 75A -22 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations inundation of the Prado Dam or a 500 -year flood. These events are unlikely with a 0.2 percent chance of occurring annually. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to flooding would occur. • There are no bodies of water in the vicinity of the Study Area that are large enough to produce a seiche. Therefore, no impact related to seiches would occur. • The Study Area is located approximately nine miles inland of the Pacific Ocean and would not be subject to tsunami inundation. Therefore, no impact related to tsunamis would occur. • The closest hillsides up- gradient from the project alignment are more than ten miles to the north and are separated from the project alignment by urban development, including residential uses, streets, and storm drain systems, which makes it unlikely that the project alignment would experience effects caused by mudslides. Therefore, no impact related to mudslides would occur. J. Land Use and Zoning (pages 3 -28 and 3 -201 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project would operate in- street within the eastern portion of the proposed alignment and in the existing PE ROW between Harbor Boulevard and Raitt Street. These transportation corridors within the Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove act as boundaries between neighborhoods. The in- street alignment would not create a new physical barrier that would divide any portion of the Cities of Santa Ana or Garden Grove. Similarly, the PE ROW was constructed in 1905. The operation of a streetcar along this segment would not create a new physical barrier that divides either city. Therefore, no impacts related to dividing an established community would occur. • On a regional scale, the proposed project would be consistent with the growth management policies of the SCAG Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide to improve the standard of living, improve the regional quality of life, and maintain social, political, and cultural equity. They would also be consistent with the air quality and open space policies of the SCAG 2012 -2035 RTP /SCS. On the local level, the proposed SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project would be consistent with the North Harbor Boulevard Specific Plan, Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan, Midtown Specific Plan, and City of Santa Ana Transit Zoning Code. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to land use would occur. K. Mineral Resources (page 3 -108 of the EA/DEIR) • The Study Area does not lie within a known mineral resource or mineral hazard area (i.e., radon) that would pose a risk to the human population. The Study Area does not include mineral activity areas regulated by the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act and, according to the State of California Department of Conservation Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources on -line mapping system, there are no geothermal resources, including oil and gas, located in the Study Area. Therefore, no impact related to mineral resources would occur. 13 75A -23 January 2015 Santa Ana — Gardon Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations L. Noise (pages 3 -152 and 3 -207 of the EA/DEIR) • Regarding operational vibration, the maximum vibration level generated by the proposed project would be 70 VdB at a streetcar speed of 40 miles per hour and would not exceed Federal Transit Administration (FTA) vibration impact criteria of 72 VdB for residential land uses. For institutional land uses, the maximum vibration level would be 74 VdB at a streetcar speed of 35 miles per hour and would not exceed FTA vibration impact criteria of 75 VdB. Operational activity would not expose people to excessive vibration levels. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to vibration would occur. • The proposed project would generate construction - related noise and vibration. Alignment and bridge construction activities would employ pieces of equipment (i.e., mounted impact hammer, foundation driller, pneumatic tools, concrete pump truck, and pavement miller or scarifier) that would exhibit high noise and vibration levels. A Noise and Vibration Control Plan will be developed and implemented prior to construction that will include BMPs to minimize exposure to high levels of noise and vibration and ensure compliance with City and FTA standards. With implementation of the Noise and Vibration Control Plan described in Section 3.16.2.3 of the EA /DEIR, the proposed project would not conflict with applicable noise standards and would not generate excessive vibration. Therefore, a less -than- significant impact related to construction noise and vibration would occur. • The closest public airport within the Study Area is John Wayne Airport, located approximately four miles to the southeast, and is not within the impacted airport noise level contours. Therefore, no impact related to airport noise would occur. M. Population and Housing (page 3 -28 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project would require housing acquisition resulting in displacement of approximately 28 persons. In addition, acquisition would affect fewer than a dozen businesses, which would displace no more than 50 jobs. Due to the small amount of housing and business displacement (less than one percent of the Study Area population), the number of persons displaced would be minimal compared to the existing population. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to population would occur. • Given the length of the four -mile alignment and the City of Santa Ana's population of over 58,000 within the Study Area, the displacement of 28 people (less than 0.05 percent) would not be considered substantial. Acquisitions requiring the displacement of existing residential uses would comply with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act). The proposed project would provide relocation assistance and compensation to displaced residences per the Uniform Act. Compensation would not be less than the approved appraisal of the property. Therefore, the proposed project would not result in the displacement of substantial housing, and a less -than- significant impact related to housing would occur. N. Public Services (page 3 -62 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project would not introduce a new population to create additional demand for police and fire services. The proposed project is not anticipated to create additional demand 14 January 2015 75A -24 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts In Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations for police and fire services although an increased demand for security personnel may occur. However, it is expected that the existing police and fire facilities would be adequate, and no new facilities would be required. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to police and fire services would occur. • The proposed project would include security- oriented design features, such as perimeter fencing around the O & M Facility. A Crime Prevention through Environment Design program would be implemented during final design that includes natural access control, natural surveillance, territoriality, and maintenance to create a safe environment. In addition, all streetcar operators would participate in a safety /security training program and surveillance cameras may be installed inside streetcar vehicles. These design features, along with police security patrols, will substantially reduce the risk for criminal activities on streetcars, at transit stations, and at the O & M Facility. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to streetcar security would occur. • The proposed project would not alter emergency response times given the wide distribution of emergency facilities throughout the Study Area. Crossing gates for the streetcar would generally not be down for a period of more than 30 seconds. It is likely that emergency vehicles would switch to the other side of the street particularly when there are median extensions. Should the at -grade crossing be inaccessible for a substantial duration, emergency vehicles could access multiple alternative routes within the Study Area based on the well- defined street grid. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to emergency response times would occur. • Although the proposed project would provide improved mobility and access to the Study Area in accordance with adopted transportation and land use plans, these improvements would not result in substantial growth of the local student population and, as such, would not necessitate the need for new schools. Therefore, no impact related to schools would occur. • Although the proposed project would improve mobility and access to communities in accordance with adopted transportation and land use plans, it would not introduce new population to the Study Area that could increase demand for parks or require the provision of new parkland. In addition, the project alignment would not disrupt or impair access to parks. Portions of the project alignment located outside of the existing transportation ROW would require some land acquisitions and easements; however, new land and easements acquisition would not displace parkland. Therefore, no impact related to parks would occur. • There are two federal buildings located near the proposed alignment. The streetcar system will be designed so as not to inhibit the function or access to the Ronald Reagan Federal Building and United States Courthouse or the Santa Ana Federal Building. The station near Santa Ana Boulevard and Ross Street will be at an adequate distance from the federal buildings so that a safety buffer is provided. Access to federal buildings would be maintained during construction and operation, and emergency access would be prioritized. Additional safety measures would also be incorporated to ensure the safe operation of the federal buildings. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact to the federal buildings would occur. 15 January 2015 75A -25 Santa Ana—Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations • The proposed project would improve regional transit access to public service facilities in the Study Area, including schools, parks and recreation areas, hospitals and community health facilities. The Willowick Public Golf Course, Spurgeon Intermediate School, George Washington Carver Elementary School, Santa Ana Civic Center, Santa Ana Public Library, OCTA Park and Ride Parking Structure, and SARTC are all within walking distance of proposed stations. These public service facilities would benefit directly from the improved transit services and access to the populated areas, specifically in the Downtown Santa Ana area near the Civic Center, where a number of public governmental agencies are located. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to public facilities would occur. O. Recreation (page 3 -231 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project would improve transit access to recreational facilities within the Study Area, several of which are located within walking distance of stations, and would promote inter -city travel and increase access to the Study Area. This would potentially increase the use of existing parks and recreational facilities. However, based on ridership projections, the increased use is not expected to be significant enough to result in substantial physical deterioration of existing recreation facilities, including the Santa Ana River Trail and bikeways. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to recreational facilities would occur. • The Santa Ana River Trail (bicycle and equestrian paths) currently crosses underneath the Santa Ana River Bridge. The proposed project would be designed to provide sufficient clearance for users of these paths on both sides of the Santa Ana River. Therefore, a less - than- significant impact to the Santa Ana River Trail would occur. P. Transportation and Traffic (pages 3 -131 and 3 -206 of the EA/DEIR) • All intersections assessed for proposed project would operate at similar or improved levels of service (LOS) as the No Build Alternative. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to intersection LOS would occur. • A roadway segment capacity analysis was completed because the proposed project would operate in mixed traffic in the central and eastern portion of the Study Area. The proposed project would not cause additional roadway segments to experience capacity deficiencies beyond those identified under the No Build Alternative. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to roadway segments capacities would occur. • Grade crossing vehicle activity would not cause excessive vehicle queuing or significantly impact the transportation system given the relatively small number of passenger vehicle and pedestrian activity around stations at the termini or intersection movements at the Harbor BoulevardMestminster Avenue Station and SARTC. In addition, it is not expected that the proposed project would attract a significant volume of commuters using SARTC as a park - and -ride to access the streetcar system. It is anticipated that streetcar patrons would come primarily from Metrolink and Amtrak, and secondarily from other local and intercity bus services that also utilize SARTC. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to grade crossings and station circulation would occur. 16 January 2015 75A -26 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations • The proposed project would affect access to driveways of four businesses, which would not interfere with driveway capacity or impact business operations. Therefore, a less -than- significant impact related to driveway access would occur. • The Harbor Boulevard /1st Street intersection, which operates at LOS C in the AM and PM peak hour, is the one Congestion Management Program (CMP) intersection within the Study Area. The proposed project would not change the LOS at this intersection. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to the CMP would occur. • The proposed project would involve improvements to the surface transportation network. The proposed alignment would not connect to an airport or cause an increase in air traffic. Therefore, no impact related to air traffic patterns would occur. • The proposed project would maintain existing or equivalent emergency access routes and response times throughout the Study Area by retaining the existing street network and connections. The proposed alignment does not pass in front of a fire station, and station locations would not prohibit access to structures. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to emergency access would occur. • As a fixed guideway system, the proposed project would facilitate and encourage alternative forms of transportation, including increased use of the local bus system and other transit lines (e.g., Metrolink and Greyhound). Accordingly, the proposed project would promote rather than conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation and would have no impact on alternative transportation modes. Q. Utilities and Service Systems (page 3 -229 of the EA/DEIR) • The proposed project would not generate wastewater from activity along the alignment or at stations. Wastewater would be generated by the O & M Facility but would not put added strain on existing wastewater treatment capacity. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to wastewater treatment and facilities would occur. • The existing drainage pattern of the proposed alignment would not be substantially altered or impacted by the proposed project. Streetcar tracks would be constructed mostly at -grade with the existing street ROW and the PE ROW. The streetcar tracks do not have gutters like a traditional road, but water that falls onto impervious surfaces associated with the track system would be collected and conveyed into the storm drain system by inlets similar to roadway inlets. Stormwater from non - street portions of the alignment may be directed to vegetated swales for treatment before conveyance to the City storm drain. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to stormwater drainage facilities would occur. • The proposed project is a transportation facility and would not deplete water supplies. The O & M Facility would use water for maintenance activities (e.g., vehicle washing) and worker hygiene. Implementation of BMPs would ensure that water use would be minimal. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact to water supply would occur. • The proposed project would not generate solid waste from activity along the alignment although standard waste receptacles would be placed at stations. It is not anticipated that streetcar riders would generate new solid waste that would exceed existing planning 17 January 2015 75A -27 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations assumptions and landfill capacity. Therefore, a less- than - significant impact related to solid waste disposal and regulations. 5. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES THAT WERE DETERMINED TO BE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION INCORPORATED The following environmental resource areas would not be significantly impacted by the proposed project with implementation of mitigation measures: A. Archaeological and Paleontological Resources (page 3 -203 of the EA/DEIR) Potential Impact: The discovery of archaeological or paleontological resources is possible during excavation activities. Therefore, without mitigation, significant impacts related to archaeological and paleontological resources would occur. Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the proposed project which would mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment as identified in the REA/FEIR. Facts in Support of Finding: The Study Area does not include archeological or paleontological resources eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Ground disturbance would not be more than five feet beneath the existing surface in most areas although ground disturbance may exceed five feet to accommodate drainage improvements near Raitt Street and for foundations for elevated structures across Westminster Avenue and the Santa Ana River. These areas are all located in previously disturbed areas with underground infrastructure that are along the street ROW or across a concrete channel, and the potential for the accidental discovery of archeological resources is remote. However, discovery of archaeological or paleontological resources is possible during excavation activities. Implementation of Mitigation Measure CRII would provide the appropriate process in the event of an accidental discovery and impacts related to archaeological and paleontological resources would be less than significant. 18 January 2015 75A -28 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations Mitigation Measure CR1 Treatment of Undiscovered Resources — The contractor shall notify construction personnel of the potential for encountering significant archaeological and paleontological resources along the alignment, and instructed in the identification of fossils and other potential resources. All construction personnel shall be informed of the need to stop work on the project site until a qualified archaeologist or paleontologist has been provided the opportunity to assess the significance of the find and implement appropriate measures to protect or scientifically remove the find. If human remains are encountered during construction, all work shall cease in the area of potential affect and the Orange County Coroner's Office shall be contacted pursuant to procedures set forth in Public Resources Code Section 5097 et seq. and Health and Safety Code in Sections 7050.5, 7051, and 7054 with respect to treatment and removal, Native American involvement, burial treatment, and re- burial, if necessary. A fifty -foot buffer, or more if deemed appropriate by the principal investigator, shall be established and work outside the buffer may resume. B. Hazards and Hazardous Materials (Hazardous Sites) (page 3 -114 of the EA/DEIR) Potential Impact: Three properties identified as potentially hazardous sites would be acquired as part of O & M Facility. The acquisition of these properties would require Phase I Environmental Site Assessments to ascertain if employees working at the O & M Facility would be exposed to toxic levels of hazardous materials. Therefore, without mitigation, significant impacts related to hazardous sites would occur. Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the proposed project which would mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment as identified in the REA/FE I R. Facts in Support of Finding: The proposed project would require limited acquisition of property, which could have the potential to contain hazardous materials. The majority of potentially hazardous properties identified within a 0.25 -mile radius of the project alignment would not be acquired or disturbed and do not require further investigation. However, three properties identified as potentially hazardous sites would be acquired as part of the O & M Facility, including All Car Auto Parts located at 2002 West 5th Street, SA Recycling located at 2006 West 5th Street, and American Auto Wrecking located at 1908 West 5th Street. Implementation of Mitigation Measure HAZ1 would reduce impacts related to hazardous sites to less than significant. Mitigation Measure HAZ1 A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment shall be prepared for the following sites • All Car Auto Parts located at 2002 West 5th Street • SA Recycling located at 2006 West 5th Street • American Auto Wrecking located at 1908 West 5th Street 19 January 2015 75A -29 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations The assessment shall be prepared by a Registered Environmental Assessor. The assessment shall be prepared in accordance with State standards /guidelines to evaluate whether the site or the surrounding area is contaminated with hazardous substances from the potential past and current uses including storage, transport, generation, and disposal of toxic and hazardous waste or materials. If hazardous materials are identified in the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, a Phase II Environmental Site Assessment would be completed to identify the extent of contamination and the procedures for remediation. The Phase II Environmental Site Assessment shall be approved by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control. C. Noise (Project Operation) (page 3 -152 of the EA/DEIR) Potential Impact: Project - related noise levels would exceed the significance thresholds at five Noise Sensitive Areas (NSA). Therefore, without mitigation, a significant impact related to operational noise levels would occur. Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the proposed project which would mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment as identified in the REA/FEIR. Facts in Support of Finding: Significant noise impacts at sensitive receptors NSA -4 (Spurgeon Intermediate School), NSA -6 (seven housing units), NSA -7 (five housing units), and NSA -8 (two housing units) would result from sounding of a warning horn and audible warning devices at gate crossings. Significant noise impact at NSA -9 (five housing units) would result from operation of the O & M Facility. Mitigation Measure N1 would reduce noise impacts associated with warning horns, Mitigation Measure N2 would reduce noise impacts associated with streetcar pass -by noise, and Mitigation Measure N3 would reduce noise impacts at NSA -9 by 5 dBA and NSA -10 by 4 dBA. Implementation of Mitigation Measures N1 through N3 would reduce impacts related to operational noise to less than significant. Mitiaation Measure N1 The City of Santa Ana shall request a horn - sounding exemption from the California Public Utilities Commission for the crossing at 5th and Fairview Streets. The exemption shall provide justification and demonstrate that safety would not be compromised. In lieu of the warning horn, supplemental safety measures (e.g., four -quad gates, roadway median barriers on grade crossing approaches, and pedestrian gates) would be implemented. If a horn sounding exemption is approved and established, warning horns would not be sounded except under an emergency situation. 20 January 2015 75A -30 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations N2 When practical, the contractor shall design special trackwork elements, such as turn- outs, switches, and cross -over to be located at least 600 feet away from sensitive receptors. If this cannot be achieved, then special switch devices, such as spring frogs or movable point frogs shall be utilized. A frog device is used where two rails cross. The frog is designed to ensure the wheel crosses the gap in the rail without "dropping" into the gap. N3 The contractor shall construct a noise barrier at the land uses identified as Noise Sensitive Areas 9 and 10. For receptors in Noise Sensitive Area 9, the noise barrier shall be at least 10 feet high and extend for 400 feet along the northern property edge of the proposed operations and maintenance facility. For receptors in Noise Sensitive Area 10, the noise barrier shall be at least 8 feet high and extend for 225 feet along the southern boundary of the PE ROW adjacent to 4th Street. The design of the noise barriers shall be identified on project plans prior to issuance of building permits. D. Safety and Security (Traffic Hazards) (page 3 -191 of the EA/DEIR) Potential Impact: The proposed project would result in significant safety hazards related to streetcar and passenger vehicle collisions and pedestrian safety. Therefore, without mitigation, a significant impact related to safety hazards would occur. Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the proposed project which would mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment as identified in the REA/FEIR. Facts in Support of Finding: The proposed project could potentially result in streetcar -to- streetcar collisions; collision with vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists; and streetcar derailment. The proposed project would be required to comply with all federal and State mandates that affect rail safety, including regulations that require fixed guideway systems to establish system safety and security programs. Following construction, the proposed project would be operated in accordance with OCTA standard operating procedures, operator rules, and the emergency plan. A safety program would be developed for and administered to all streetcar operators. Despite safety features incorporated into the project design, streetcar and passenger vehicle conflicts have been identified at schools located adjacent to the tracks. These locations include Spurgeon Intermediate School, Romero Cruz Elementary School, George Washington Carver Elementary School, and James Garfield Elementary School. Each of these locations represents an area where streetcars could collide with a passenger vehicle. The proposed project could potentially result in significant impacts related to pedestrian safety. The proposed project would include construction of the Willowick Station, located between Westminster Avenue and the Santa Ana River, to allow future access when the Willowick golf course site is redeveloped. Without the development of the Willowick Station, there are no public roadways that cross the proposed alignment within this segment. As an interim solution, a ten -foot walking path would be constructed on both sides of the fenced OCTA ROW to allow access from adjacent residential neighborhoods, located north and south of the ROW. The proposed walking path would be accessed from the two gates near Green Drive and the end of 21 January 2015 75A -31 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations Clinton Street. The walking path would not be visible from public streets and from the rear yards of adjacent homes due to the height of a proposed masonry ROW wall. The walking path is proposed to be lighted. It is also proposed that there would be pedestrian crossings of the tracks immediately south of the station platform and approximately 350 feet north of the station platform. However, the proposed project design creates several safety concerns, including the following: • Transit patrons would have to walk a long distance along a walking path that is not visible to the general public; • The proposed lighting level along the walking path may create shadowed or dimly lit areas; • Gates would be accessed by a pass key, which may trap transit patrons without a pass key or without immediate access to a pass key within the ROW; • If no pass keys are needed at access gates, then it may be possible for non - residents to access the neighborhoods adjacent to the rear of the homes on isolated streets and walkways; • Pedestrian crossings of the tracks, located north of the station platforms, may raise safety consideration for train operations; and • Allowing pedestrian access into the OCTA ROW without fencing of the area directly to the tracks would potentially result in pedestrians crossing the tracks within the ROW. Mitigation Measure SAF1 would eliminate adverse effects related to safety for pedestrian during pick -up /drop -off times at schools within along the alignment. Mitigation Measures SAF2 through SAFE would eliminate adverse effects related safety for pedestrian accessing the walking path. Implementation of Mitigation Measures SAF1 through SAF6 would reduce impacts related to traffic hazards and safety to less than significant. Mitigation Measure SAF1 The City of Santa Ana shall coordinate with the Santa Ana Unified School District and Santa Ana Police Department regarding safety at schools adjacent to the alignment. The collaborative effort between the City and interested parties shall develop and teach rail safety measures to students and parents. Other precautionary safety features shall include signs, gated crossing, and crossing and traffic signals to create a safe environment for parents and students during pick -up /drop -off times. SAF2 The contractor shall install surveillance cameras along the pedestrian walking paths within the PE ROW and at pedestrian gates to adjacent neighborhoods. Police security personnel shall be responsible for surveillance camera monitoring. SAF3 The contractor shall install emergency call boxes along the pedestrian walking paths within the PE ROW. SAF4 The contractor shall design the lighting plan for the pedestrian walking paths within the PE ROW to eliminate shadows or dimly lit areas to the greatest extent feasible. 22 January 2015 75A -32 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations SAF5 Within the PE ROW, the contractor shall fence the track area, and appropriate signage and audible and visual warning devices shall be installed at gate openings. SAF6 If Mitigation Measures SAF2 through SAF4 are considered infeasible, then the Willowick Station shall not be made operational by the contractor until an appropriate public access point from the PE ROW is created as part of the Willowick Public Golf Course redevelopment. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES THAT WERE DETERMINED TO BE SIGNIFICANT AND UNAVOIDABLE AFTER MITIGATION The following environmental resource area would be significantly impacted by the proposed project even with implementation of mitigation measures (i.e., significant and unavoidable): A. Air Quality (Construction Emissions) (page 3 -221 of the EA/DEIR) Potential Impact: Significant and unavoidable air quality impacts, after incorporation of mitigation measures, would occur as a result of the violation of an air quality standard during project construction. Finding: Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the proposed project which would partially mitigate the significant effects on the environment as identified in the REA/FEIR, but would not reduce the impact below a level of significance. Facts in Support of Finding: Construction emissions would temporarily impact air quality with the amount and type of construction activities that would occur for the proposed project. The proposed project would be segmented for construction purposes, and construction activities would be completed in phases to minimize the disruption to local residents and businesses in the Study Area. The SCAQMD has established daily significance thresholds for assessing regional construction emissions. Nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions associated with the proposed project would exceed the regional NOx threshold at times during the construction process. NOx emissions would continue to exceed the SCAQMD significance threshold after implementation of Mitigation Measure AQ1. Therefore, significant and unavoidable impacts related to regional NOx emissions would occur. Construction emissions of PM1e were found to exceed the SCAQMD's Localized Significance Thresholds and would, therefore, result in a local air quality impact to sensitive receptors in the vicinity of the O & M Facility. The proposed project is subject to SCAQMD Rule 403 (Fugitive Dust), which requires that dust control measures (i.e., watering, offsite dirt trackout, and haul truck freeboard clearance) be applied to minimize the generation of fugitive dust during construction activities. Despite the application of these dust control measures, PM10 emissions are still anticipated to exceed the SCAQMD's localized significance thresholds. No other feasible mitigation measures, standard conditions, or BMPs exist that would reduce this impact. Therefore, significant and unavoidable impacts related to localized PM10 emissions would occur. Mitigation Measure 23 January 2015 75A -33 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations AQ1 During the construction phase, the contractor shall use Tier 4 or higher off -road construction equipment with higher air pollutant emissions standards. 7. CUMULATIVE, GROWTH INDUCING, AND IRREVERSIBLE EFFECTS Cumulative Impacts Cumulative impacts were described on page 3 -237 of the EA/DEIR. Table 3.18 -1 (page 3 -238) lists the current, planned and pending projects in the City of Santa Ana and surrounding communities that are reasonably foreseeable. The related projects are considered as part of the baseline for the No Build Alternative in the cumulative analysis. A. Aesthetics The related projects are not anticipated to result in cumulative changes to the visual character and quality of the Study Area. The various local approvals for those projects would ensure visual compatibility with the existing environment. The proposed project would not degrade the existing visual character and quality of the Study Area, including light and glare. The combined effect of the proposed project with the No Build Alternative would not result in a cumulative impact. Therefore, light and glare impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. B. Agriculture and Forestry There are no agricultural, timberland, or forestry resources within the Study Area. The combined effects of the proposed project with the No Build Alternative would not result in a loss of lands related to agriculture and forestry. Therefore, agriculture and forestry impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. C. Air Quality In accordance with SCAQMD methodology, projects that would result in a significant impact for either regional or localized air pollutant emissions would contribute toward a cumulative impact. Cumulative projects within the Study Area and the surrounding area would include redevelopment of existing uses, as well as development of new commercial and residential uses. As the proposed project would result in a regionally and localized significant impact during construction, it is anticipated that continued development (and associated construction activities) located predominately within the City of Santa Ana would also result in regional and localized air quality impacts. Therefore, construction - related air quality impacts would be cumulatively considerable. For operational air quality emissions, projects that would not exceed the SCAQMD daily operational emissions significant thresholds would not contribute toward a cumulative impact. The proposed project would not exceed the SCAQMD daily operational emissions significant thresholds. Therefore, operational - related air quality impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. 24 January 2015 75A -34 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations D. Biological Resources Due to the site - specific nature of biological impacts (i.e., tree removal), biological impacts are typically assessed on a site - specific basis, rather than a cumulative basis. The Study Area does not include threatened or endangered species or sensitive habitats. In addition, brush clearing and tree removal would be on a small scale as the Study Area is entirely urban. Nonetheless, cumulative growth could result in impacts to biological resources including locally protected trees or violation of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Related projects and other future development projects would be subject to the local, regional, State and federal regulations pertaining to biological resources, including the migratory bird act. With adherence to these regulations, the combined effect of the proposed project with the No Build Alternative would not result in a cumulative impact. Therefore, biological resources impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. E. Cultural Resources Cultural resources include significant paleontological, archaeological and built environment resources. Cumulative impacts to these cultural resources are directly related to the presence and significance of these resources within the area of direct effect. No significant previously- or newly- recorded paleontological and prehistoric or historic archaeological sites have been identified within the Study Area. Given the lack of direct impacts to significant paleontological or archaeological resources associated with the proposed project, no significant cumulative impacts are anticipated as a result of concurrent construction activities in the area. The cultural resources assessment prepared for the proposed project has determined that the proposed project would not result in an adverse effect to cultural resources. Based on record searches and historic research, there are a number of significant or potentially significant cultural resources located within the proposed project vicinity. These cultural resources could be impacted on the regional level by the development of all cumulative projects, in addition to the proposed project. Therefore, the proposed project could incrementally contribute to a cumulative effect. However, the above - mentioned projects are subject to CEQA -level environmental review and include provisions to preserve historic structures and districts. Consequently, impacts to significant or potentially significant cultural resources can typically be mitigated through the avoidance of important cultural resources, the development and implementation of a data recovery plan, and /or following the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. With adherence to these regulations, cultural resource impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. F. Geology and Soils Geotechnical hazards are site - specific, and there is little, if any, cumulative geological relationship between the proposed project and the related projects. Nevertheless, cumulative development in the area would increase the overall population and number of structures, thus, increasing the risk of exposure to seismically- induced hazards. Related projects and other future development projects would be subject to the same local, regional, State, and federal regulations pertaining to geology and soils. With adherence to these regulations, the combined 25 January 2015 75A -35 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations effect of the proposed project with the No Build Alternative would not result in a cumulative impact. Therefore, geology and soil impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. G. Greenhouse Gas Emissions California is the 15th largest emitter of GHG on the planet, representing about two percent of the worldwide emissions. An individual project may contribute an incremental amount of GHG emissions that could combine with other emission sources to create concentrations of GHG that could influence climate change. The transportation sector, largely the cars and trucks that move people and goods, is the largest contributor with approximately 37 percent of the State's total GHG emissions. Because of the high percentage of transportation- related GHG emissions, many GHG reduction plans (e.g., Orange County SCS) focus on reducing regional dependence on single - passenger vehicles. The proposed project is designed to reduce vehicle miles traveled - related emissions by encouraging the use of public transit by providing accessibility to activity centers that provide employment and educational opportunities, goods, and services. The proposed project would encourage a shift in mode of transportation travel from private passenger vehicle to commuter use of the mass transit system. As a result, the contribution of the proposed project to the combined GHG impact would not be considerable. Therefore, GHG emission impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. H. Hazards and Hazardous Materials Potentially significant impacts of the related projects associated with hazards and hazardous materials, or the release, transport, and disposal of hazardous materials, would be assessed on a case -by -case basis. While impacts associated with hazards and hazardous materials are typically site - specific and do not cumulatively affect off -site areas, conditions, such as contaminated groundwater, can affect down - gradient properties. In addition, operation of the related projects can reasonably be expected to involve the limited use of potentially hazardous materials typical of those used in residential and commercial developments, including cleaning agents, paints, pesticides, and other materials used for landscaping. Related projects would be subject to local, State, and federal regulations pertaining to hazards and hazardous materials. It is expected that all potentially hazardous materials would be used, stored, and disposed of in accordance with manufacturers' specifications and handled in compliance with applicable standards and regulations. With adherence to these regulations, hazards and hazardous materials impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. I. Hydrology and Water Quality The geographic context for the cumulative impact analysis on water quality is the Santa Ana River watershed. Like the proposed project, growth in the Santa Ana River watershed would be subject to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System requirements regarding water quality. The Study Area is already densely developed and future land use changes or development are not likely to cause substantial changes in regional surface water quality. It is also anticipated that these related projects would also be subject to Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan requirements and implementation of measures to comply with total maximum daily loads. In addition, it is not anticipated that related projects would significantly impact flood 26 January 2015 75A -36 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations control in the concrete -lined Santa Ana River. With adherence to these regulations, hydrology and water quality impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. J. Land Use and Planning Each of the related projects have been reviewed or are under review for consistency with applicable plans, policies and regulations of the City of Santa Ana's General Plan and Zoning Code. The proposed project would be consistent with adopted land use plans and zoning codes. Selection of the proposed project would encourage new development around the stations, and allow access to Downtown and other high- intensity areas of employment, commercial development, and recreational opportunities. New transit - oriented development would be facilitated near station areas with underutilized or vacant land uses. This would further encourage compatibility with surrounding land uses and zoning. Therefore, land use and planning impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. K. Mineral Resources Mineral Resource Zones or Oil Drilling /Surface Mining Areas have not been identified within the Study Area or in the vicinity of the proposed project. Therefore, mineral resource impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. Ian The noise and vibration analysis is based on the forecast of the future growth within the region and the Study Area. The environmental document for SCAG's 2012 -2035 RTP /SCS concluded that cumulative noise impacts, including the proposed project, would be significant and unavoidable. However, with implementation and enforcement of mitigation measures, the proposed project would result in less- than - significant project - related noise impacts to sensitive locations along the alignment. As a result, the contribution of the proposed project to the combined noise impact with other development and transportation projects would not be considerable. Therefore, noise impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. While impacts associated with vibration are typically site - specific and do not cumulatively affect off -site areas, transportation projects could generate new sources of vibration. According to the FTA Transit Noise and Vibration Impact Assessment (2006) guidance document, vibration levels generated by rubber -tired vehicles are rarely perceptible. There are no related projects that would generate transportation- related vibration other than that related to rubber -tired vehicles. The proposed project would not combine with the No Build Alternative to result in a cumulative impact. Therefore, vibration impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. M. Population and Housing The Study Area experienced a population decline between 2000 and 2010, while vacancy rates increased. The proposed project would provide construction jobs in the Study Area, which could result in a population increase in Santa Ana, Garden Grove, or Orange County. However, population growth would be minor and, when combined with the growth projections assumed under the No Build Alternative, would not overburden the available housing supply in the Study Area. Therefore, population and housing impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. 27 January 2015 75A -37 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations N. Public Services Potentially significant impacts of the related projects associated with increased demand for public services would be assessed on a case -by -case basis. Potential impacts to public services from the related projects would be mitigated to a level of less than significant through the local land use approval process. The proposed project would not create new trips but could change mode of access, which could redistribute existing travel and change routes related to public services. The City of Sane Ana is within an urban environment with an expansive street network and varied inventory of public services. The redistribution in travel would not burden public services or result in substantial decreases in emergency response times. The police and fire stations are widely distributed throughout the Study Area and a comprehensive street network provides numerous alternate routes in the event of a crossing delay. Therefore, emergency response times would not be impacted. The combined effect of the proposed project with the No Build Alternative would not result in a cumulative impact. Therefore, public services impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. O. Transportation and Traffic The related projects are mainly land use development projects or are future funded and committed transportation projects that are encompassed in the 2035 traffic analysis that was performed for the proposed project. The results of the analysis captures the known cumulative impacts associated with the proposed project. The proposed project would not result in significant traffic effects and the combined effect of the proposed project with the No Build Alternative would not result in a cumulative impacts. Therefore, transportation and traffic impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. P. Utilities and Service Systems Potentially significant impacts of the related projects associated with utilities and service systems would be assessed on a case -by -case basis through permitting and will -serve letters, particularly for development projects. Operation of the proposed project would require the use of various utilities, including electricity, natural gas, and communication systems. Electricity would be used to run the streetcar system. New TPSSs would distribute power along the alignment. The proposed project is included in regional and local land use and transportation planning documents, and utility companies have the capacity to meet the future demand for utility services. The quantities required would not be substantial and major modifications or new utility facilities would not need to be constructed to serve increased demand. Therefore, utilities and service systems impacts would not be cumulatively considerable. Growth - inducing Effects While the proposed project would provide improved mobility and access to the Study Area in accordance with adopted transportation and land use plans, these improvements would not result in substantial population growth. The Study Area experienced a population decline between 2000 and 2010, while vacancy rates increased. The proposed project would provide construction jobs in the Study Area, which could result in a population increase in Santa Ana, Garden Grove, or Orange County. However, population growth would be minor and would not 28 January 2015 75A -38 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations exceed the growth projections or available housing supply in the Study Area. Therefore, the proposed project would result in less- than - significant impacts related to population growth. Growth - inducing projects are generally located in isolated, undeveloped, or underdeveloped areas, necessitating the extension of major infrastructure (e.g., sewer and water facilities, roadways, etc.) or are those that could encourage "premature" or unplanned growth (i.e., "leapfrog" development, or urban sprawl). Although development of the proposed project supports urban growth, it would not remove an obstacle to population growth since the Study Area is heavily urbanized. The proposed project would not spur new direct or indirect regional growth in terms of population or employment and, therefore, would not result in significant growth- inducing impacts. Irreversible Effects The construction and implementation of the proposed project would entail the irreversible and irretrievable commitment of energy and human resources; however, this commitment of energy, personnel, and building materials would be commensurate with that of other projects of similar magnitude. Labor would also be committed for the planning, design, construction, and operation phases of the proposed project. Construction would require the commitment of a variety of nonrenewable or slowly renewable natural resources. Energy (in the form of fossil fuels) and construction materials (such as lumber, sand and gravel, metals, and water) would be irretrievably committed for construction of the proposed project. However, there would be some offset of the loss of energy resources. Demolition debris would be recycled for other uses. For example, inert construction debris (e.g., concrete and asphalt) would potentially be crushed and used for road base or other uses requiring aggregate as reinforcement material. Ongoing operation and maintenance of the proposed project would entail a further commitment of energy resources in the form of petroleum products (diesel fuel and gasoline), natural gas, and electricity. This commitment of energy resources would be a long -term obligation because it is not possible to return the land to its original condition once it has been developed. However, the impacts of increased energy usage are not considered significant impacts. Therefore, the implementation of the proposed project would involve irreversible environmental changes to existing natural resources, but the impact would be less than significant. 8. FINDINGS REGARDING ALTERNATIVES The alternatives identified for evaluation in the EA/DEIR were based on public comments, as well as technical analyses, as detailed in the Alternative Analysis Report (under separate cover and available by request or on the City's website at http:/ /santaanatransitvision.com). The alternatives analysis process included a comprehensive review of potential technology and alignment options. Prior Analysis of Alternatives A wide range of public transit options were defined and investigated as candidate technologies. The initial alignment options were based on the need to establish an east -west transit corridor in 29 January 2015 75A -39 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations the Study Area, and to improve the Study Area's regional transit connectivity by providing direct connections to existing and planned transit services (Metrolink and OCTA fixed route and Bus Rapid Transit [BRT] services) at SARTC and at the northeast corner of Harbor Boulevard and Westminster Avenue in the City of Garden Grove. A reasonable range of alternatives has been evaluated as part of the environmental process, beginning with a robust alternatives analysis and using a screening process to provide a limited range of alternatives in the EA/DEIR. Several other alternatives, including BRT routes along Santa Ana Boulevard and Civic Center Drive, were considered in the initial alternatives analysis but were ultimately screened out because they did not fully satisfy the purpose and need or project goals and objectives and were less cost effective in terms of both capital and operations and maintenance costs per rider. These other alternatives are described in the Santa Ana and Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Corridor Alternative Analysis Report. The alternatives addressed in the EA/DEIR consisted of a No Build Alternative, Transportation System Management (TSM) Alternative, Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2, and Initial Operating Segment (IOS) -1 and IOS -2. Streetcar Alternative 1 included the PE ROW through the western half of its alignment and Santa Ana Boulevard and 4th Street on the way to SARTC. Streetcar Alternative 2 also included the PE ROW through the western half of its alignment and generally Santa Ana Boulevard, Civic Center Drive, and 5th Street along the eastern half of the alignment to SARTC. The No Build Alternative was provided as a basis for comparing the build alternatives, each of which was specifically designed to respond to the purpose and need for the project, study goals, and community input. No Build Alternative This No Build alternative is required by Section 15126.6 of the CEQA Guidelines and provides the basis for comparing future conditions resulting from other alternatives. Conditions in the foreseeable future (through planning horizon year 2035) include projects that (1) have environmental analysis approved by an implementing agency and (2) have a funding source identified for implementation. Other projects in the foreseeable future include: • Implementation of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B), both project -level and program -level components, that are anticipated for build -out by 2028; • Implementation of the Station District Development Projects, which consist of a variety of residential development projects, community open space and some limited neighborhood - serving commercial development' • Transit improvements including modest adjustments to existing local bus routes; and expanded Metrolink service' • Three, new bus rapid transit routes: (1) Harbor Boulevard Bus Rapid Transit Corridor [Costa Mesa to Fullerton, 10- minute headways, peak period]; (2) Westminster /17th Street Bus Rapid Transit Corridor [Santa Ana to Long Beach, 10- minute headways, peak period]; and (3) Bristol Street Bus Rapid Transit Corridor [Irvine Transportation Center to Brea Mall, 10- minute headways, peak period]; and 30 January 2015 75A -40 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations • Roadway improvements including the Bristol Street Widening project, which will widen Bristol Street from four to six lanes between Warner Avenue and Memory Lane, and the Grand Avenue Widening project, which will widen Grand Avenue from four to six lanes between 1 st Street and 17th Street. Findings for No Build Alternative The City of Santa Ana finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the No Build Alternative identified in the EA/DEIR and REA/FEIR (CEQA Guidelines 15091(a)(3)). Although the No Build Alternative would not result in environmental impacts, it would not provide the desired levels of mobility and accessibility within the City of Santa Ana. In addition, the No Build Alternative would not foster economic development opportunities, promote sustainable transportation investments to respond to the needs of the community, or deliver travel, benefits, reliability, and choice to the public transportation system. Therefore, the No Build Alternative would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of the proposed project. TSM Alternative The TSM Alternative enhances the mobility of existing transportation facilities and transit network without construction of major new transportation facilities or significant, costly physical capacity improvements. The TSM Alternative emphasizes low cost (i.e., small physical) improvements and operational efficiencies, such as focused traffic engineering actions, expanded bus service, and improved access to transit services. Included within the TSM Alternative are modifications and enhancements to selected bus routes in the Study Area including: • Skip -stop overlay service on 1st Street (Route 64) which includes access to SARTC; • A new route between SARTC and Harbor Boulevard/Westminster Avenue via Civic Center Drive, Bristol Street and 17th StreetNVestminster Avenue, providing 10- minute peak and 20- minute off -peak service; • Expanded service span for StationLink service (Route 462) between SARTC and the Civic Center, providing 15- minute service during both peak and off -peak hours; • In addition, the following system operational improvements are included in the TSM Alternative: • Traffic signal timing improvements at select congested locations along Santa Ana Boulevard and Civic Center Drive to provide for enhanced east -west bus flow, potential including but not limited to: • Main Street at Civic Center Drive • Broadway at Civic Center Drive • Flower Street at Civic Center Drive • Fairview Street at Civic Center Drive • Santa Ana Boulevard at Santiago Street 31 January 2015 75A -41 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations o Santa Ana Boulevard at Lacy Street (install traffic signal) • Real -time bus schedule information at high - volume transit stops (e.g., Flower Street and 6th Street, Santa Ana Boulevard and Main Street) • Improvements to transit stop amenities (benches, shelters, kiosks, sidewalk connections, etc.) along the Santa Ana Boulevard and Main Street corridors • Improvements to bicycle and pedestrian circulation to promote safe, convenient and attractive connectivity between the transit system and surrounding neighborhoods and activity centers , including accommodating bicycles on all buses, providing real time bus arrival information via internet and mobile devices, installing bicycle storage facilities at SARTC and the Harbor/Westminster stop, and providing study area maps /walking guides on all buses. Findings for TSM Alternative The City of Santa Ana finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the TSM Alternative identified in the EA/DEIR (CEQA Guidelines 15091(a)(3)). Although the TSM Alternative would result in less- than - significant environmental impacts, it would not provide the desired levels of mobility and accessibility for the community. The daily ridership for the TSM Alternative was projected to be 3,100 in 2035, as opposed to 6,100 under the proposed project. In addition, the TSM Alternative would not foster economic development opportunities, promote sustainable transportation investments to respond to the needs of the community, or deliver travel, benefits, reliability, and choice to the public transportation system. Therefore, the TSM Alternative would not be consistent with the goals and objectives for the proposed project. For these reasons, the City of Santa Ana rejects this alternative. Streetcar Alternative 1 Streetcar Alternative 1 (proposed project) would utilize the PE ROW, an abandoned and vacant rail right -of -way owned by the OCTA, through the western half of its alignment and generally operate along Santa Ana Boulevard, and 4th Street on the way to SARTC. The 4.2 -mile alignment would include 12 stations and it is anticipated that the streetcar system would operate seven days a week with 10- minute headways during peak periods and 15- minute headways during off -peak periods. The streetcars would be electrically powered using an overhead contact system and a series of TPSS located intermittently along the alignment. Findings for Streetcar Alternative 1 Streetcar Alternative 1 has no substantial differences in the severity of environmental impacts when compared to the other alternatives. The purpose of the proposed project is to provide a new east -west transit line in Orange County between the SARTC in the City of Santa Ana and the Harbor Boulevard /Westminster Avenue intersection in the City of Garden Grove. The primary objectives of the proposed project are as follows: • To improve transit connectivity within the Study Area; • To relieve congestion by providing alternative mobility options; 32 January 2015 75A -42 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations • To be sensitive to the character of the community; • To increase transit options; • To improve transit accessibility to and within the Study Area; and • To provide benefits to the environment through improved air quality. Streetcar Alternative 1 would satisfy each of the project objectives and goals with similar environmental effects as the other build alternatives. Therefore, Streetcar Alternative 1 is the environmentally superior alternative. Streetcar Alternative 2 Streetcar Alternative 2 would utilize the PE ROW through the western half of its alignment and substantially operate along Santa Ana Boulevard, Civic Center Drive, and 5th Street along the eastern half of the alignment to SARTC. The operational characteristics of this alternative are identical to Streetcar Alternative 1. The differences between the two streetcar alternatives are the alignment and the fact that Streetcar Alternative 2 would have one additional station for a total of 13. Findings for Streetcar Alternative 2 Similar to Streetcar Alternative 1 (the locally preferred alternative), construction - related air quality emissions associated with Streetcar Alternative 2 would result in a regional NOx impact, a localized PM1e impact, and a cumulative impact. The City of Santa Ana finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible Streetcar Alternative 2 identified in the ENDEIR (CEQA Guidelines 15091(a)(3)). The daily ridership for Streetcar Alternative 2 was projected to be 4,700 in 2035, as opposed to 6,100 for the proposed project. Streetcar Alternative 2 would generate less ridership than the proposed project. It would not provide adequate access to transit within the City of Santa Ana and, therefore, would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of the proposed project. For these reasons, the City of Santa Ana rejects this alternative. I0S -1 and I0S -2 In response to funding and phasing issues raised by fiscal constraints identified during OCTA's long -range transportation planning process, IOSs, which are shorter segments of the Streetcar Alternatives, were analyzed. Similar to the proposed project, construction - related air quality emissions associated with IOS -1 and IOS -2 would result in a regional NOx impact, a localized PM1e impact, and a cumulative impact. The intent of the IOS alternatives was to identify starter segments that could be constructed and operated until funding is assembled to complete the remaining portion of the project. Both IOS -1 and IOS -2 would terminate at Raitt Station ( Raitt Street and Santa Ana Boulevard) rather than Harbor Station (Harbor Boulevard and Westminster Avenue). Both would include the same project features and design options as their respective full alignment build alternatives between Raitt Street and SARTC. The configuration of Raitt as an interim terminus station is the same for IOS -1 and IOS -2. Just over 50 spaces would be provided for station parking at Raitt within the PE ROW on an interim basis 33 January 2015 75A -43 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations to be replaced by parking at Harbor Station upon completion of the full Project. Vehicular access to Raitt Station parking would be via Daisy Avenue. Findings for IOS -1 and IOS -2 The City of Santa Ana finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible IOS -1 and IOS -2 identified in the EA/DEIR and (CEQA Guidelines 15091(a)(3)). The IOS alternatives would not be environmentally superior to the proposed project with the exception that these shorter route options would result in less excavation and subsequent acquisition and construction - related impacts. The impacts of the IOS alternatives would be essentially the same as the proposed project with traffic, parking and circulation impacts being redistributed to the new terminal station location at Raitt Station. Each IOS alternative would generate approximately 47 percent of the ridership associated with the full alignment. The other key distinction of these shorter alignment options is that they reduce the beneficial effects from the full route, particularly in the area of regional connectivity. Therefore, IOS -1 and IOS -2 would not be consistent with project goals and objectives compared to the proposed project. For these reasons, the City of Santa Ana rejects these alternatives. O & M Facility Site Options Both Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2 would require the construction of an O & M Facility for streetcar operations. An O & M Facility is a stand -alone building which would meet the maintenance, repair, operational and storage needs of the proposed streetcar system. The O & M Facility accommodates daily and routine vehicle inspections, interior /exterior cleaning of the streetcars, preventative (scheduled) maintenance, unscheduled maintenance, and component change -outs. The proposed facility would also provide a venue for parking vehicles that are not in use and for rebuilding components. Two O & M facilities were analyzed in the EA/DEIR. O & M Facility Site A is an irregularly shaped parcel slightly larger than 2.2 acres, and bordered by 6th Street to the north, 4th Street to the south, the Metrolink tracks to the east, and various industrial and commercial businesses to the west. Currently used as a waste transfer and recycling center, this site contains one primary structure with the remainder of the site used for receiving and sorting recycling materials, and parking. O & M Facility Site B is a rectangular site slightly larger than 2.4 acres. It is located west of Raitt Street and is bordered by 5th Street to the north and the PE ROW to the south. Located in an area zoned for industrial and commercial uses, this site is comprised of three parcels, two of which contain existing businesses and a combination of industrial buildings. The third parcel contains a multi - family structure with six residences. Findings for O & M Facility Site Options The City of Santa Ana finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible O & M Facility Site A identified in the EA/DEIR and (CEQA Guidelines 15091(a)(3)). The smaller size, irregular shape, and distance from the PE ROW make O & M Facility Site A less efficient to develop and operate, and provides less opportunity to accommodate a greater range of O & M functions on the site. In conjunction with its location 34 January 2015 75A -44 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations eastern end of the corridor, O & M Facility Site A provides less flexibility to serve future system expansion, or extensions or connections through Garden Grove to Anaheim. For these reasons, the City of Santa Ana rejects O & M Facility Site A. The size, rectangular shape and proximity to the PE ROW make O & M Facility Site B more efficient to develop and operate, and provides opportunity to accommodate a greater range of O & M functions on the site. In conjunction with its location in the western half of the corridor, O & M Facility Site B provides greater flexibility to serve future system expansion, or extensions or connections through Garden Grove to Anaheim. For these reasons, the City of Santa Ana adopts O & M Facility Site B. Fourth Street Parking Scenarios The proposed project would utilize 4th Street between Ross Street and Mortimer Street in the westbound direction. From east of Ross Street to French Street, 4th Street has one travel lane in each direction with head -in diagonal parking along each side of the roadway. The diagonal parking, with vehicles exiting parking spaces by backing into the travel lane, is incompatible with reliable streetcar operations. Three design scenarios were identified in the EA/DEIR to address the diagonal parking on 4th Street. Scenario A: Convert the diagonal parking along the south side of 4th Street, between Ross Street and French Street, to parallel parking and widen the sidewalk along the south side from 12 feet to 20 feet, and replace streetlights and landscaping. A total of 26 on- street parking spaces would be removed under this scenario. Scenario B: Remove the diagonal parking along the south side of 4th Street, between Ross Street and French Street, and widen the sidewalk along the south side from 12 feet to 28 feet, and replace streetlights and landscaping. A total of 77 on- street parking spaces would be removed under this scenario. Scenario C: Remove the diagonal parking along both sides of 4th Street, between Ross Street and French Street, widen the sidewalks along both sides from 12 feet to 28 feet, and replace streetlights and landscaping on both sides of the street. A total of 132 on- street parking spaces would be removed under this scenario. Findings for Fourth Street Parking Scenarios The City of Santa Ana finds that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible Fourth Street Parking Scenarios B and C identified in the EA/DEIR (CEQA Guidelines 15091(a)(3)). Although significant impacts were not identified for any of the parking alternatives, Fourth Street Parking Scenario A would remove the least amount of parking. For this reason, the City of Santa Ana rejects Fourth Street Parking Scenarios B and C in favor of Fourth Street Parking Scenario A. 35 January 2015 75A -45 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations Findings for Mitigation Measures Mitigation Measures for the proposed project have been identified in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. None of the recommended measures that are within the City of Santa Ana jurisdiction have been rejected. To the extent that these findings conclude that various proposed Mitigation Measures outlined in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program are feasible and have not been modified, superseded or withdrawn, the City of Santa Ana hereby binds itself to implement or, as appropriate, require implementation of these measures. These findings, in other words, are not merely informational, but rather constitute a binding set of obligations that will come into effect when the City of Santa Ana adopts a resolution approving the proposed project. Environmentally Superior Alternative Section 15126.6(e)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines requires that an environmentally superior alternative be identified among the selected alternatives. If the No Build Alternative is identified as the environmentally superior alternative, the identification of the next best environmentally superior alternative must be identified. As described in the EA/DEIR and the REA/FEIR, the No Build Alternative has been found to have the least amount of environmental impacts and is the environmentally superior alternative. Of the remaining alternatives, the TSM Alternative is the CEQA environmentally superior alternative because no impacts were identified in the EA /DEIR. However, the City hereby finds that the TSM alternative would not achieve the project's basic objectives and thereby rejects this alternative. 9. STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS The REA/FEIR has identified and discussed significant environmental effects that will occur as a result of implementation of the proposed project. With implementation of feasible mitigation measures, standard conditions, and /or BMPs, as discussed in the REA/FEIR, these effects can be mitigated to levels considered less than significant except for the significant impacts related to regional construction emissions and localized construction emissions, as described above in Section 6 of this document. Specifically, implementation of the proposed project would result in the following significant impacts even after imposition of all feasible mitigation measures, standard conditions, and /or BMPs and would require adoption of a Statement of Overriding Considerations: • Construction emissions associated with the proposed project would result in exceedance of the SCAQMD's NOx threshold for construction activities for the years 2012 and 2013 and, as such, would result in a significant regional air quality impact. Implementation of Mitigation Measure AQ1 would reduce NOx emissions, although emissions would still exceed the SCAQMD significance threshold. • Construction emissions of PM1e were found to exceed the SCAQMD's Localized Significance Thresholds and would, therefore, result in a local air quality impact to sensitive receptors in the vicinity of the O & M Facility. The proposed project is subjected to SCAQMD Rule 403 (Fugitive Dust), which requires that dust control measures (i.e., watering, offsite dirt trackout, and haul truck freeboard clearance) be applied to minimize the generation of fugitive dust during construction activities. Despite the application of these 36 January 2015 75A -46 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations dust control measures, PM10 emissions are still anticipated to exceed the SCAQMD's localized significance thresholds. No other feasible mitigation measures, standard conditions, or BMPs exist that would reduce this impact. In accordance with SCAQMD methodology, projects that would result in a significant impact for either regional or localized air pollutant emissions would contribute toward a cumulative impact. Cumulative projects within the Study Area and the surrounding area would include redevelopment of existing uses, as well as development of new commercial and residential uses. As the proposed project would result in a regionally and localized significant impact during construction for both NOx and PM1e emissions, it is anticipated that continued development (and associated construction activities) located predominately within the City of Santa Ana would also result in regional and localized air quality impacts. Therefore, the contribution of the proposed project to this air quality construction impact would be cumulatively considerable. No other feasible mitigation measures, standard conditions, or BMPs exist that would reduce this cumulatively considerable impact. In making this determination, the Lead Agency is guided by CEQA Guidelines Section 15093, which provides as follows: a. CEQA requires the decision - making agency to balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of a proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. If the specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits of a proposed project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse environmental effects may be considered "acceptable." b. When the lead agency approves a project which will result in the occurrence of significant effects which are identified in the final EIR but are not avoided or substantially lessened, the agency shall state in writing the specific reasons to support its action based on the final EIR and /or other information in the record. The statement of overriding considerations shall be supported by substantial evidence in the record. c. If an agency makes a statement of overriding considerations, the statement should be included in the record of the project approval and should be mentioned in the notice of determination. This statement does not substitute for, and shall be in addition to, findings required pursuant to CEQA Section 15091. Having considered the unavoidable adverse significant impacts of the proposed project, the City Council hereby determines that all feasible mitigation measures have been adopted to minimize, substantially reduce, or avoid the significant impacts identified in the REA /FEIR, and that no additional feasible mitigation is available to further reduce significant impacts. Further, the City Council finds that economic, social, and other considerations of the proposed project outweigh the significant and unavoidable impacts described above, and adopts the following Statement of Overriding Considerations. In making this Finding, the City Council has balanced the benefits of the proposed project against its significant and unavoidable environmental impacts and has indicated its willingness to accept those impacts. 37 January 2015 75A -47 Santa Ana—Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations The following statements are in support of the City Council's action based on the REA/FEIR and /or other information in the record. The following project objectives identify the benefits of project implementation: • To improve transit connectivity within the Study Area; • To relieve congestion by providing alternative mobility options; • To be sensitive to the character of the community; • To increase transit options; • To improve transit accessibility to and within the Study Area; and • To provide benefits to the environment through improved air quality. The City Council finds the project objectives would include benefits to the City of Santa Ana. In addition to these project objectives, the following benefits constitute an overriding consideration warranting approval of the proposed project despite the significant and unavoidable environmental effects. The City Council finds that the project benefits derived from the project objectives identified above, as well as those listed below, are each individually and separately sufficient to outweigh all of the proposed project's significant and unavoidable impacts. • The proposed project would support local plans for transit - oriented development (TOD). The City of Santa Ana recognizes that land use, economic opportunity, and transportation planning go hand in hand. Over the last several years, the City of Santa Ana has implemented TOD in the area adjacent to SARTC. Santa Ana's Transit Zoning Code, which encompasses 450 acres within the Study Area, supports mixed -use development and provides a transit - supportive, pedestrian— oriented development framework to reduce vehicle trips and greenhouse gas emissions. • The proposed project would support economic vitality and foster redevelopment opportunities. The City of Santa Ana recognizes the importance of public investment in infrastructure as a catalyst for economic development. In the competitive Orange County marketplace, transportation infrastructure projects that improve access and mobility enhance the attractiveness of neighborhoods and provide a competitive edge for nearby businesses. Therefore, an important element of the City's integrated transportation -land use vision is the provision of transit service that is continuous and reliable, as well as a permanent and visible fixture for transit users and the community. Such service would improve visibility and access to existing economic activity centers and areas targeted for redevelopment. Connectivity to these key existing and future development areas is one of the most critical aspects of the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project. In recent years, the City of Santa Ana has taken active steps to revitalize its downtown area to attract new businesses, customers, and visitors, utilizing a design scheme that fosters walkability and transit use. The Artist's Village and the East End Promenade in Downtown Santa Ana are prime examples of this effort. Moreover, the recent adoption of the Transit Zoning Code by the City of Santa Ana provides the policy foundation for redevelopment activities specifically targeted to the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project. However, constrained access continues to be a challenge for the area. To the west, the City of Garden Grove continues to promote economic development along the Harbor Boulevard Corridor (International West). The proposed transportation investment is intended to support economic vitality and foster redevelopment opportunities within the 3$ January 2015 75A -48 Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Findings and Facts in Support of Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations Study Area by improving access and connectivity within the Study Area, and between the Study Area and the surrounding region. This, in turn, will improve visibility and enhance access to Study Area land uses, and promote business activity. It will strengthen existing development and foster new opportunities for mixed -use development and transit - supportive residential products, and regionally significant resort and entertainment venues in areas such as the Willowick Public Golf Course and the southern end of the Harbor Boulevard Corridor. • The proposed project would fulfill Santa Ana's overall vision for the Study Area, including a transit system that integrates seamlessly with the community and that is compatible with the established urban character. 39 75A -49 January 2015 75A -50 Attachment A Chapter 4.0 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program PRC Section 21081.6 and Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines require adoption of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for all projects for which an EIR has been prepared. This requirement was originally mandated by Assembly Bill (AB) 3180, which was enacted on January 1, 1989, to ensure the implementation of all mitigation measures adopted through the CEQA process. Specifically, PRC Section 21081.6 states that "...the agency shall adopt a reporting or monitoring program for the changes made to the project or conditions of project approval, adopted in order to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment... [and that the program] ... shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation." AB 3180 provided general guidelines for implementing monitoring and reporting programs, which are enumerated in more detail in Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines. However, specific reporting and /or monitoring requirements to be enforced during project implementation shall be defined prior to final approval of the proposed project by the decision - maker. In response to established CEQA requirements, the proposed MMRP shall be submitted to the City of Santa Ana (lead agency) for consideration prior to completion of the environmental review process to enable the decision - makers appropriate response to the proposed project. Although the lead agency may delegate reporting or monitoring responsibilities to other agencies or entities, it '...remains responsible for ensuring that implementation of the mitigation measures occurs in accordance with the program." The MMRP describes the procedures for the implementation of the mitigation measures to be adopted for the proposed project as identified in the EA/DEIR and REA /FEIR. The MMRP will be in place through all phases of the proposed project, including design (pre- construction), construction, and operation (post- construction both prior to and post- occupancy). The City of Santa Ana shall be responsible for administering the MMRP activities or delegating them to staff, other City departments (e.g., Department of Building and Safety and Department of Public Works), consultants, or contractors. The City of Santa Ana will also ensure that monitoring is documented through reports (as required) and that deficiencies are promptly corrected. The designated environmental monitor (e.g., City building inspector, project contractor, or certified professionals depending on the provision specified below) will track and document compliance with mitigation measures, note any problems that may result, and take appropriate action to remedy problems. Each mitigation measure is categorized by environmental topic and corresponding number, with identification of: • The enforcement agency • The monitoring agency • The monitoring phase (i.e., the phase during which the measure should be monitored); • The monitoring frequency • The action indicating compliance with the mitigation measure Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAjFEIR P a g ol234 January 2015 EXHIBIT 3 75A -51 All agencies and departments are in the City of Santa Ana, unless otherwise noted. Land Use and Zoning No mitigation measures related to land use and zoning are required. Land Acquisition and Displacement No mitigation measures related to land acquisition and displacement are required. Visual Quality No mitigation measures related to visual quality are required. Cultural Resources CR1 A qualified principal investigator who meets the Secretary of the Interior's professional qualification standards for an archeologist shall be responsible for managing Native American archaeological resources and human remains. The qualified principal investigator shall appoint an archaeological monitor to be present for ground- disturbing activities that could encounter undisturbed soils. If the qualified principal investigator determines that Native American archaeological resources and human remains are likely present, then both an archeological monitor and a Native American monitor identified by the principal investigator shall be present. The Native American monitor shall be a Native American identified by the applicable tribe and /or the Native American Heritage Commission. The timing and duration of the monitoring shall be determined by the principal investigator based on the sensitivity of exposed sediments. Prior to initiation of earth - disturbing activities that could encounter undisturbed soils; the archaeological monitor shall conduct a brief awareness training session for all construction workers and supervisory personnel. The training shall explain the importance of and legal basis for the protection of significant archaeological resources. Each worker shall learn the proper procedures to follow in the event that cultural resources or human remains /burials are uncovered. These procedures include work curtailment or redirection and the immediate contact of the site supervisor and the archaeological monitor. It is recommended that this worker education session include visual images of artifacts that might be found in the project vicinity, and that the session take place on -site immediately prior to the start of ground- disturbing activities. If archaeological resources or human remains are encountered during construction, all work shall cease in the area of potential affect until the find can be addressed. The Orange County Coroner's Office shall be contacted pursuant to procedures set forth in Public Resources Code Section 5097 et seq. and Health and Safety Code in Sections 7050.5, 7051, and 7054 with respect to treatment and removal, Native American involvement, burial treatment, and re- burial, if necessary. A fifty -foot buffer, or more if deemed appropriate by the principal investigator, shall be established and work outside the buffer may resume. Santa Ana Garden Grave Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g ol 285 January 2015 75A -52 Areas that would not encounter undisturbed soils and would therefore not be required to retain an archaeologist shall demonstrate non - disturbance to the City of Santa Ana through the appropriate construction plans, as -built drawings, or geotechnical studies prior to any earth - disturbing activities. Impacts to any significant resources shall be mitigated to a less- than - significant level through data recovery or other methods determined adequate by the archaeologist and that are consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Archaeological Documentation.

Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g ell January 2015 75A -59 1.2 Summary of the Proposed Project The SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project proposes to provide a new east -west transit line in Orange County between the Santa Ana Regional Transit Center (SARTC) in the City of Santa Ana and the Harbor Boulevard /Westminster Avenue intersection in the City of Garden Grove. The purpose of the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project is to: • Improve Transit Connectivity within the Study Area; • Relieve Congestion by Providing Alternative Mobility Options; • Be Sensitive to the Character of the Community; • Increase Transit Options; • Improve Transit Accessibility to and within the Study Area; and • Provide Benefits to the Environment through Improved Air Quality. The alternatives addressed in the EA /DEIR consisted of a No Build Alternative and a Transportation System Management (TSM) Alternative, as well as four build alternatives; Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2 and Initial Operating Segment (IOS) -1 and IOS -2, which are shorter versions of the full alignment. Streetcar Alternative 1, which is the Locally Preferred Alternative, will utilize the Pacific Electric Right -of -Way (PE ROW) through the western portion of the approximately four -mile alignment to reduce costs and impacts and to provide optimum accessibility. The eastern portion of the alignment will operate along Santa Ana Boulevard and 4 "' Street on the way to SARTC. The streetcar system will be electrically powered using an overhead contact system and a series of Traction Power Substations. The Locally Preferred Alternative includes 24 stations. Streetcar Alternative 2 would utilize the PE ROW through the western half of its alignment and primarily operate along Santa Ana Boulevard, Civic Center Drive, and 51" Street through the eastern half of the alignment to SARTC. The operational characteristics of this alternative are identical to Streetcar Alternative 1. The differences between the two streetcar alternatives are the alignment and the fact that Streetcar Alternative 2 would have one additional station for a total of 13. The No Build Alternative provides the basis for comparing future conditions resulting from other alternatives. This alternative includes conditions in the foreseeable future (through planning horizon year 2035) include projects that (1) have environmental analysis approved by an implementing agency and (2) have a funding source identified for implementation. The TSM Alternative enhances the mobility of existing transportation facilities and transit network without construction of major new transportation facilities or significant, costly physical capacity improvements. The TSM Alternative emphasizes low cost (i.e., small physical) improvements and operational efficiencies, such as focused traffic engineering actions, expanded bus service, and improved access to transit services. In response to funding and phasing issues raised by fiscal constraints identified during OCTA's long -range transportation planning process, IOSs were developed as alternatives, which are shorter segments of the Locally Preferred Alternative and Streetcar Alternative 2. Further details on these alternatives are provided on page 2 -1 of the EA /DEIR. Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR January 2015 75A -60 Page12 1.3 Selection of a Locally Preferred Alternative Following receipt of public comments on the EA /DEIR and after the close of the public comment period, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana selected Streetcar Alternative 1 with Operations & Maintenance Facility Site B (west of Raitt Street) and 4`h Street Parking Scenario A (parallel parking) as the Locally Preferred Alternative for the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project on August 5, 2014. The selection of the Locally Preferred Alternative was based on the evaluation criteria that were approved by the community during the public scoping process. These criteria included the consideration of accessibility and livability; economic development, transit supportive land use, and community goals; environmental responsibility; travel benefits, choice, and reliability; and cost effectiveness and financial feasibility. Streetcar Alternative 1 produced the highest ridership, and served the greatest number of transit dependent households. Compared to Streetcar Alternative 2, it required less right -of -way acquisition, had a lower capital cost to construct, and greater ease of constructability. The existing land uses along the Streetcar Alternative 1 alignment were highly transit supportive, and offered greater economic development potential for the future. The selection of this Locally Preferred Alternative constitutes the extent of change to the proposed project that has occurred since the circulation of the EA /DEIR. The selection of the Locally Preferred Alternative does not create a change in circumstances, generate changes to the previously identified alternatives, or alter the previous environmental evaluation and determinations which were identified in the EA /DEIR. 1.4 Noticing and Availability of EA/DEIR In compliance with NEPA regulations and CEQA Guidelines Sections 15085 and 15087, a Notice of Availability of the EA /DEIR was distributed, and the EA /DEIR was made available for public review for 45 days beginning May 23, 2014 to provide an opportunity for interested parties to comment on the EA /DEIR. There were three public hearing meetings, which were held on June 14, 17, and 19, 2014. During the review period, 17 written submissions were received on the EA /DEIR from public agencies, community groups, and individuals. These comments and the corresponding responses are presented in Chapter 2.0, Responses to Comments of this REA /FEIR. Meaningful public engagement was an important component of the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project from the onset. Prior to making any key decisions on the proposed project, the City of Santa Ana initiated a public scoping process to define the appropriate range of issues to be addressed in the EA /DEIR. Four scoping meetings were conducted for the general public between June 8 and June 12, 2010. Two of these meetings were scheduled in the evening, one meeting was scheduled in the morning, and one meeting was scheduled on a Saturday afternoon, providing those community members who could not attend any of the weekday evening meetings with an opportunity to participate. Public comment opportunities were made available at each meeting. It should also be noted that articles and advertisements were published in a number of local newspapers, including several non - English publications. All information materials were presented in English, as well as Spanish. Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g e13 January 2015 75A -61 The alternatives identified for evaluation in the EA /DEIR were based on public comments, as well as technical analyses, as detailed in the Alternative Analysis Report (under separate cover and available by request or on the City's website at http : / /santaanatransitvision.com. The alternatives analysis process included a comprehensive review of potential technology and alignment options. A wide range of public transit options were defined and investigated as candidate technologies. The initial alignment options were based on the need to establish an east -west transit corridor in the Study Area, and to improve the Study Area's regional transit connectivity by providing direct connections to existing and planned transit services (Metrolink and OCTA fixed route and Bus Rapid Transit [BRT] services) at SARTC and at the northeast corner of Harbor Boulevard and Westminster Avenue in the City of Garden Grove. A reasonable range of alternatives has been evaluated as part of the environmental process, beginning with a robust alternatives analysis and using a screening process to provide a limited range of alternatives in the EA /DEIR. The alternatives analysis is described in detail beginning on page 2 -29 of the EA /DEIR. Several alternatives, in addition to those previously discussed, including BRT routes along Santa Ana Boulevard and Civic Center Drive, were considered in the initial alternatives analysis but were ultimately screened out because they did not fully satisfy the purpose and need or project goals and objectives and were less cost effective in terms of both capital and operations and maintenance costs per rider than Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2. Section 15126.6(e)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines requires that an environmentally superior alternative be identified among the selected alternatives. If the No Build Alternative is identified as the environmentally superior alternative, the identification of the next best environmentally superior alternative must be identified. As described in the EA /DEIR and the REA /FEIR, the No Build Alternative has been found to have the least amount of environmental impacts and is the environmentally superior alternative. Of the remaining alternatives, the TSM Alternative is the CEQA environmentally superior alternative because no impacts were identified in the EA /DEIR. However, the City hereby finds that the TSM Alternative would not achieve the proposed project's basic objectives and thereby rejects this alternative. Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el A January 2015 75A -62 Chapter 2.0 Responses to Comments This chapter provides responses to all written and oral comments received on the EA /DEIR. Comments include issues raised by the public that warrant clarification or correction of certain statements in the EA/DEIR. 2.1 Public Review The EA /DEIR was circulated for a period of 45 days beginning on May 23, 2014. During the review period, 17 written submissions were received on the EA /DEIR from public agencies, groups and individuals. Between June 14 and June 19, 2014, the City also held three public meetings to present the conclusions of the EA /DEIR and receive comments from the public.

The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) states that any project which includes archeological resources, is a significant effect requiring the preparation of an EIR (CEQA guidelines 15064.5(b).. To adequately comply.with this provision and mitigate project - related impacts on archaeological resources; the Commission recommends the following actions be required: Lead agencies should include in their mitigation plan provisions for the , identification and evaluation of accidentally discovered archeological resources; pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) §15064.5(f , In areas of identified archaeological sensitivity, a certified archaeologist and a culturally affiliated Native American, with knowledge in cultural resources, should monitor all ground - disturbing activities. Also, California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2 require documentation and analysis of archaeological items that meet the standard in Section 15064.5 (a)(b)(f). If there is federal jurisdiction of this project due to funding or regulatory provisions; then the following may apply: the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA 42 U.S.0 4321 - 43351) and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S.0 470 et seq.) and 36 CFR Part 800.14(b) require consultation with culturally 75A -73 affiliated Native American tribes to determine if the proposed project may have an adverse impact on cultural resources We suggest that this (additional archaeological activity) be coordinated with the NAHC, if possible. The final report containing site forms, site significance, and mitigation measurers should be submitted immediately to the planning department. Any information regarding site locations, Native American human remains, and associated funerary objects should be in a separate confidential addendum, and not be made available for pubic disclosure pursuant to California Government Code Section 6254.10. A list of appropriate Native American Contacts for consultation concerning the project site has been provided and is attached to this letter to determine if the proposed active might impinge on any cultural resources. California Goverment Code Section 65040.12(e) defines "environmental justice" to provide ".fair treatment of People—with respect to the development, adoption; implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations and policies.' (The California Code is consistent with the �edsral Executive Order 12898 regarding 'environmental jusfe.' Also; applicable to state °agencies is Executive Order B- 10 -1-1 requires consultation with Native American tribes their elected officials and other representatives of tribal governments to. provide meaningful input into the development of legislation, regulations, rules, and policies on matters that may affect tribal -; communities. Lead agencies should consider first, avoidance for sacred and./or historical sites, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15370(a): Then if the project goes ahead then, lead agencies include in their mitigation and. monitoring plan provisions for- the analysis and disposition of recovered artifacts, pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section,21083.2 in consultation with culturally affiliated Native. Americans. Lead agencies should include provisions for discovery of Native American human remains in their mitigation plan, Health and Safety Code §7050.5, CEQA §15064.5(e)., and Publio.Resources Code. §5097.98 mandates the process to be followed in the event of an accidental discovery of any human r sins in a location other.than a dedicated.cemete,ry:- Program CC: State Clearinghouse Attachment: Native American Contacts list 75A -74 Letter2 State of California — Governor's Office of Planning and Research State Clearinghouse and Planning Unit Scott Morgan P.O.

Mail No. of Pages: 4 RE: SCH #2010051060 CEQA Notice of Completion;; draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) for the "Santa Ana — Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project," located in the Santa Ana and Garden Grove areas; Orange County, California Dear Mr. Gabriel: The Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) has reviewed the above - referenced environmental document. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) states that any project which includes archeological resources, is a significant effect requiring the preparation of an EIR (CEQA guidelines 15064.5(b).. To adequately comply wit[ this provision and mitigate project - related impacts on archaeological resources, the Commission recommends the following actions be required: Lead agencies should include in their mitigation plan provisions for the identification and evaluation of accidentally discovered archeological resources, pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) §15064.5(f). In areas of identified archaeological sensitivity, a certified archaeologist and a culturally affiliated Native American, with knowledge in cultural resources, should monitor all ground - disturbing activities. Also, California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2 require documentation and analysis of archaeological Items that meet the standard in Section 15064.5 (a)(b)(f). 4 -1 If there is federal jurisdiction of this project due to funding or regulatry provisions; then the following may apply: the National Environmental Policy Act o (NEPA 4-2 42 U.B.0 4321 - 43351) and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S.0 470 et seq.) and 36 CFR Part 800.14(b) require consultation with culturally 75A -80 affiliated Native American tribes to determine if the proposed project may have an 14 -2 adverse impact on cultural resources cont. We suggest that this (additional archaeological activity) be coordinated with the NAHC, if possible. The final report containing site forms, site significance, and mitigation measurers should be submitted immediately to the planning department. Any information regarding site locations, Native American human remains, and associated funerary objects should be in a separate confidential addendum, and not be made available for pubic disclosure pursuant to California Government Code Section 6254.10. A list of appropriate Native American Contacts for consultation concerning the project site has been provided and is attached to this letter to determine if the proposed active might impinge on any cultural resources. California Government Code Section 65040.12(e) defines "environmental justice' to provide "fair treatment of People... with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations and policies," (The California Code is consistent with the Federal Executive Carder 12898 regarding 'environmental justice.' Also, applicable to state agencies is Executive Order B -10 -11 requires consultation with Native American tribes their elected officials and other representatives of tribal governments to provide meaningful input into the development of legislation, regulations, rules, and policies on matters that may affect tribal communities. Lead agencies should consider first, avoidance for sacred and/or historical sites, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15370(x). Then if the project goes ahead then, lead agencies include in their mitigation and monitoring plan provisions for the analysis and disposition of recovered artifacts, pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 21083.2 in consultation with culturally affiliated Native Americans. 4 -3 Lead agencies should include provisions for discovery of Native American human remains in their mitigation plan. Health and Safety Code §7050.5, CEQA §15064.5(e), and Public Resources Code §5097.98 mandates the process to be 4 -4 followed in the event of an accidental discovery of any human remains in a location other than a dedicated ceWProgram CC: State Clearinghouse Attachment: Native American Contacts list 75A -81 Native American Contacts Orange County California May $0, 2014 Juaneno Band of Mission Indians Aclachemen Nation David Belardes, Chairperson 32161 Avenida Los Amigos Juaneno San Juan Capistrang CA 92675 chiefdavidbelardes@ yahoo.

Mitigation Measure CR1 states that: A qualified principal investigator who meets the Secretary of the Interior's professional qualification standards for an archeologist shall be responsible for managing Native American archaeological resources and human remains. The qualified principal investigator shall appoint an archaeological monitor to be present for ground- disturbing activities that could encounter undisturbed soils. If the qualified principal investigator determines that Native American archaeological resources and human remains are likely present, then both an archeological monitor and a Native American monitor identified by the principal investigator shall be present. The Native American monitor shall be a Native American identified by the applicable tribe and /or the Native American Heritage Commission. The timing and duration of the monitoring shall be determined by the principal investigator based on the sensitivity of exposed sediments. Prior to initiation of earth - disturbing activities that could encounter undisturbed soils; the archaeological monitor shall conduct a brief awareness training session for all construction workers and supervisory personnel. The training shall explain the importance of and legal basis for the protection of significant archaeological resources. Each worker shall learn the proper procedures to follow in the event that cultural resources or human remains /burials are uncovered. These procedures include work curtailment or redirection and the immediate contact of the site supervisor and the archaeological monitor. It is recommended that this worker education session include visual images of artifacts that might be found in the project vicinity, and that the session take place on -site immediately prior to the start of ground- disturbing activities. If archaeological resources or human remains are encountered during construction, all work shall cease in the area of potential effect until the find can be addressed. The Orange County Coroner's Office shall be contacted pursuant to procedures set forth in Public Resources Code Section 5097 at seq. and Health and Safety Code in Sections 7050.5, 7051, and 7054 with respect to treatment and removal, Native American involvement, burial treatment, and re- burial, if necessary. A fifty -foot buffer, or more if deemed appropriate by the principal investigator, shall be established and work outside the buffer may resume. Areas that would not encounter undisturbed soils and would therefore not be required to retain an archaeologist shall demonstrate to the City of Santa Ana that disturbance has occurred through the appropriate construction plans, as -built drawings, or geotechnical studies prior to any earth - disturbing activities. Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 26 January 2015 75A -84 Impacts to any significant resources shall be mitigated to a less- than - significant level through data recovery or other methods determined adequate by the archaeologist and that are consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Archaeological Documentation. Any identified cultural resources shall be recorded on the appropriate DPR 523 form and filed with the SCCIC. Response 4 -2 The proposed project includes federal involvement and, accordingly, the FTA, the lead agency under the NEPA, has conducted Native American consultation in compliance with NEPA, Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), and 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 8OO.14(b). Refer to the Cultural Resources Evaluation Report included as Appendix F of the EA /DEIR for detailed information related to the Native American Consultation Process. As stated on page 3 -93 of the EA /DEIR, the initial Native American consultation process began on July 7, 2010 when letters were sent to the 15 Native American individuals or organizations included on the list provided by the NAHC during the Notice of Preparation process. To date, no written responses have been received. In addition, phone calls to Native American contacts were made on September 29, 2011. Anita Espinosa, Juaneno Band of Mission Indians, commented on September 29, 2011 that the area is considered sacred lands and that she or another tribal representative should be informed if archaeological remains be found. The Juaneno Band of Mission Indians requests that Native American monitors be present during ground- disturbing activities. No additional responses have been received. Response 4 -3 See Responses 4 -1 and 4 -2. As discussed in Section 3.7.2.3 on page 3 -100 of the EA /DEIR, no archaeological resources were identified in the Area of Potential Effects (APE) as being eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places or California Register of Historical Resources. The construction and operation of the proposed project would not result in adverse effects on archaeological or historic properties. Therefore, impacts to sacred and historical sites have been avoided. Mitigation Measure CR1 on page ES -17 of the EA /DEIR requires that an appropriate Native American monitor be retained for ground- disturbing activities though coordination with NAHC upon the identification of Native American Archaeological resources by the principal investigator. The final report for ground disturbing activities containing the site forms, site significance, and mitigation measures will be submitted to the NAHC immediately upon completion. Response 4 -4 Mitigation Measure CRII on page ES -17 of the EA /DEIR contains provisions for the unanticipated discovery of human remains pursuant to the procedures set forth in Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 5097 et seq. and Health and Safety Code Sections 7050.5, 7051, and 7054 with respect to treatment and removal, Native American involvement, burial treatment, and re- burial.

The purpose of the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project is to: POSTED • Improve Transit Connectivity within the Study Area; • Relieve Congestion by Providing Alternative Mobility Options; MAY 2 2 2414 • Be Sensitive to the Character of the Community; • Increase Transit Options; OppNeECDUNtYCL' REC0RDER1E1M1RiMENT • Improve Transit Accessibility to and within the Study Area; and DEPUTY • Provide Benefits to the Environment through Improved Air Quality. 8Y The build alternatives addressed in the Environmental Assessment /Draft Environmental Impact Report (EA /DEIR) consist of a Transportation Systems Management (TSM) /Bus Alternative, Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2, and Initial Operating Segments for the Streetcar Alternatives (IOS) -1 and IOS -2. To reduce costs and impacts and to provide optimum accessibility, the streetcar and IOS alternatives would operate in mixed -flow traffic on city streets and in a dedicated "Streetcar only" guideway in the Pacific Electric Right -of -Way (PE ROW). The TSM /Bus Alternative would improve the local transit network without construction of major new transportation facilities. Enhancements would be achieved through low cost (i.e., small physical) improvements and operational efficiencies. Included within the TSM Alternative are modifications and enhancements to selected bus routes in the Study Area, including a new route between SARTC and Harbor Boulevard /Westminster Avenue; intersection /signal improvements; and bus stop amenity upgrades. Both streetcar alternatives would utilize the PE ROW through the western portion of the approximately four mile alignment. The eastern portion of the Streetcar Alternative 1 alignment would operate along Santa Ana Boulevard and 4" Street on the way to SARTC; the eastern portion of the Streetcar Alternative 2 alignment would operate along Civic Center Drive and 5" Street between Spurgeon and Flower Streets. In harmony with the City of Santa Ana's Complete Streets Program, Streetcar Alternative 2 will accommodate bicycle lanes along Civic Center Drive. The streetcar systems would be electrically powered using an overhead contact system and a series of Traction Power Substations. Streetcar Alternative 1 would include 12 stations and Streetcar Alternative 2 would include 13 stations. IOSs, which are shorter segments of Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2, were developed in response to funding and phasing issues raised by fiscal constraints identified during the Orange County Transportation Authority's long - range transportation planning process. The intent of the IOSs is to identify starter segments that could be constructed and operated until funding is assembled to complete the projects. Both IOS -1 and IOS -2 terminate at the Raitt Street /Santa Ana Boulevard intersection, rather than the Harbor Boulevard/ Westminster Avenue intersection. Both IOS Alternatives include the same project features and design options as their respective full alignment build alternatives between Raitt Street and SARTC. Summary of Significant Environmental Impacts: The EA /DEIR was prepared by the City of Santa Ana as the local lead agency, and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) as the federal lead agency, to satisfy the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The EA /DEIR examines the potential impacts that may result from implementation of the proposed alternatives and identifies 75A -90 mitigation measures. The proposed project would result in potentially significant impacts in four resource areas: hazardous materials; noise and vibration; safety and security; and construction air quality. Mitigation measures would eliminate the significant impacts associated with hazardous materials, noise and vibration, and safety /security. Significant construction air quality impacts under CEQA would remain after the implementation of mitigation; however, it should be noted that construction - related air quality Impacts would be temporary. In addition to mitigation measures, design features and best management practices have been incorporated into the proposed project. These include a Traffic Management Plan, a Noise and Vibration Control Plan, and a number of features to manage water quality.

Our comments on the 7.1 "Environmental Assessment /Draft Environmental impact Report for the Santa Ana and Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project" follow. SAHPS operates the Dr. Willella Howe -Waffle House and Medical Museum at 120 Civic Center Drive West in Downtown Santa Ana. The 125 year old Queen Anne style Victorian also serves as the headquarters for SAHPS. in reviewing the subject environmental document, we found a few errors regarding the Howe -Waffle House. In Table 3.4 -1 on page 3 -33 ( "Section 4 (F) Resources "), the address of the Howe - Waffle House and Carriage Barn is incorrectly listed in Item #15. The address should be changed to 120 Civic Center Drive West. In Table 3.7 -1 on page 3 -95, the address for the Howe Waffle House is also listed incorrectly in Item #33, as "120 East Civic Center Drive." Also, in the "French Park" section on page 3 -42 the document describes the Howe -Waffle House as being in French Park. This is not correct. We suggest that discussion of the Howe Waffle House be moved to the "Downtown Santa Ana" section on page 3 -44. 75A -94 7 -2 SAHPS is assuming that, despite the location of the Howe - Waffle House being incorrect in the instances cited above, there would be no acquisition of the existing property at 120 Civic Center 7 -3 Drive West. Is this assumption correct? A second major concern for SAHPS Is the proposed work within the right -of -way for Streetcar Alternative 2. Figure 2 -5 on page 2 -12 ( "Civic Center Drive Bike Lane ") illustrates a section of Civic Center Drive showing the existing traffic lanes and sidewalk dimensions compared with the proposed dimensions adding the streetcar, its platform and bike lanes. Since it is not described, we're not sure where Figure 2 -5 is located. We know it is not a typical section for the stretch of West Civic Center Drive between Main on the east and Sycamore on the west. In that section, the existing public sidewalk on the south side of Civic Center Drive between Main and Sycamore Streets is 8'0' wide. The width of the existing sidewalk on the south side of Civic Center Drive as shown in Figure 2 -5 is 12'0 ". Without further clarification we cannot be certain how the existing right -of -way for the Howe -Waffle House will be affected by Streetcar Alternative 2. 7 -4 Also, on page ES -7 of the Executive Summary, the document states, "Streetcar Alternative 2 would require additional right -of -way to accommodate the bicycle lane." Again, it is unciear 7-5 where acquisition of this additional right -of -way would occur. SAHPS is very concerned about how improvements in the right -of -way to accommodate the streetcar alignment and bike lanes would affect the Howe -Waffle House at 120 Civic Center Drive West, and if the acquisition of additional right -of -way would be necessary. Accordingly, 7 -5 SAHPS cannot support Streetcar Alternative 2 without this clarification. In conclusion, SAHPS supports Streetcar Alternative 1 as proposed. We believe it will promote I more visitors to Downtown Santa Ana and reduce current vehicle and parking demands on the 7-7 existing street system. SAHPS appreciates the opportunity to comment on the subject environmental document. If any of our comments require clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me at 714/ 550 -9369 or 17-8 via email at miramarl274 @att.net. Sincerely, Alan Lawson Associate Director, SAHPS [SAHPS fixed guideway comments] cc: Alison Young, President, SAHPS Roberta Deed, Treasurer, SAHPS 75A -95 Letter Santa Ana Historical Preservation Society Alan Lawson 120 Civic Center Drive West Santa Ana, CA 92701 Response 7 -1 The comment is an acknowledgement that the EA /DEIR has been reviewed by the Santa Ana Historical Preservation Society (SAHPS). This comment is not directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA /DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Response 7 -2 Details regarding the location of the Howe - Waffle House have been corrected and identified in the Chapter 3.0, Corrections and Additions. The correct address is 120 Civic Center Drive West. This has been corrected in Table 3.4 -1 on page 3 -33 of the EA /DEIR and Table 3.7 -1 on page 3 -94 of the EA /DEIR. In addition, the discussion of the Howe - Waffle House has been moved from the French Park discussion on page 3 -42 of the EA /DEIR to Downtown Santa Ana discussion on page 3 -44 of the EA /DEIR. Response 7 -3 The commenter is correct in that no acquisition of the existing property located at 120 Civic Center Drive West would be required for the proposed project. Response 7 -4 Figure 2 -5 on page 2 -12 of the EA /DEIR has been relabeled to show Civic Center Drive West from Flower to Parton Streets. The section of Streetcar Alternative 2 and IOS -2 in front of the Howe - Waffle House can be viewed in Appendix 0, Section A, on Drawing No. TR -26 (page 79). As shown in this drawing, the sidewalk width in front of the Howe - Waffle House would remain at 8 feet. Along Civic Center Drive West, the proposed alignment would be located on the north side of the street as it travels west and the only acquisitions, as shown in Figure 3.3 -4 on page 3 -22 of the EA /DEIR and Table 3.3 -5 on page 3 -23 of the EA /DEIR, would occur on the north side of the street. The right -of -way in front of the Howe - Waffle House, on the southern side of Civic Center Drive West, would remain unchanged with Streetcar Alternative 2 and IOS -2. The proposed project and IOS -1 would travel along 5`" Street to the south and not along Civic Center Drive West. Response 7 -5 The text on page ES -7 of the EA /DEIR has been revised to clarify that the additional right -of -way required for the bike lane proposed under Streetcar Alternative 2 would be located on the north side of Civic Center Drive West. No acquisition of the Howe - Waffle House, which is on the south side of the street, would be required. In addition, the right -of -way required for the bike lane is in order to separate the bike lane from the streetcar station platform areas which would be located on the east side of Broadway and Main Streets. Both locations are located more than Santa Ana•Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 38 January 2015 75A -96 200 feet from the Howe - Waffle House. The acquisition is shown in Figure 3.3 -4 on page 3 -22 of the EA /DEIR and would involve a full take (18,719 square feet) of the property at the northeast corner of Main Street and Civic Center Drive West (Burger King) and a partial take (730 square feet) of the property at the northeast corner of Broadway Street and Civic Center Drive West (St. Joseph's workshop). Response 7 -6 The right -of -way in front of the Howe - Waffle House, on the southern side of Civic Center Drive West, would remain unchanged with Streetcar Alternative 2 and IOS -2. The proposed project and IOS -1 would travel along 5th Street to the south and not along Civic Center Drive West. See Responses 7 -4 and 7 -5 for additional information in response to this comment. Response 7 -7 The support for Streetcar Alternative 1 was forwarded to the decision makers for consideration. Response 7 -8 The comment is not directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA /DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR January 2015 75A -97 Payol39 July 7, 2014 _.7 n!;t 9 n is r „•l SANTA ANA 'A.OMMUNITY & BUSINESS ALLIANCE Comment Letter No. 8 Mndeleine Spencer 333 Gast 916 it 303 Santa Ana, CA 92701 714 -815 -2653 spenel 111(ii;;mail.chapman.edu City Manager David Cavazos, City Attorney Sonia Carvalhe, Mayor Pulido, Council Members & City Staff, SUBJECT: STATEMENT OF OPPOSITION TO SANTA ANA'S FIXED GUIDEWAY (STREETCAR) PROJECT CONNECTING TO GARDEN GROVE Dear City of Santa Ana, Over the next several years, construction of a fixed guideway project on Pourfll Street will cause a contraction in spending in the corridor which over the course of the 8 -1 construction will result in a cumulative decline in aggregate demand for the products currently sold by merchants on this street. This will severely test businesses in a time when the economy has already severely slowed. The fact that the city has proposed this as their "preferred route” raises many questions as to whether this proposed plan is in fact a marker of sorting, and has re- reminded business owners on Fourth Street of the many previous attempts that have been made by the city since 1985 to agitate long standing businesses along this street. This process of agitation began with the marked failure to redevelop the area originally larown as the Fiesta Marketplace, this was first proposed in official records 85- 432141. Redevelopment procedures for Fourth Street which would harm business owners 8 -2 re- emerged in the "Renaissance Plan," which resulted in a series of policies of unequal and differential investment of public and private resources on this street beginning with the "Fourth Street Fagade Program" and in the 2008 establishment of "CID" or the Community Improvement District for the same area which without the knowledge of a majority of the business owners was conspired to only benefit a few businesses along the corridor who profited from the tripled property tax assessments by way of what was referred to as "Property Based Improvement Districts" or PBIDs which was found illegal by the Grand Jury in accordance with the California Penal Code 993 and 993:1 The £act that now in June of 2014 the city has sought again to pursue a fixed guideway (streetcar $ 3 75A -98 project) though 4th street having again only informed "a few individual businesses" as was stated by City Manager David Cavazos in the first EIR proceeding on June 14, 2014 where only two business owners, out of 10 other residents who were in attendance, had attended. After inquiring further along the Fourth Street Corridor as to who had been. informed it was found that a majority of the businesses along the corridor were uniformed about the upcoming project. This is disturbing because the businesses know that the city has no problem of communicating with business owners when they have a code violation, as only months before many of the businesses along the fourth street corridor were unsuspectingly ticketed for code violations during the Cisco de Mayo Event. This showing that the city has every ability to inform businesses of violations yet seem to have little ability to inform them of processes that may well affect their livelihood for years to come. It is felt by many that this guideway running down Fourth Street in fact constitutes not only a disenfranchisement but also a disservice to much of the Merchant constituency along this street. Another concern is with regard to the Santa Anita Neighborhood directly behind the Willowick Golf Course. There are already visible signs of displacement occurring in I this neighborhood and there are concerns about how the this guideway project will further affect the prospect of displacement of the residents in this neighborhood: For all of the above stated reason as well as the following reasons 1.) Lack of inclusion in the planning process, 2.) Questionable objectives for specified project, ', sorting 3.) Project costs 4.) Disruptive construction, vacant properties, displacement, and 5.) Public safety issues, this statement of opposition not only opposes this project route but also request an Equity Assessment be. done to mitigate further affects in the rest of the city in relation to of unequal investment, borders, invisibilization, spatial hgmogencity, exclusion from governance, serial displacement and social disintegration, all the injuries that would be caused by further sorting in the city of Santa Ana. The requirement fora transport equity analysis was initiated by U.S. Executive Order 12898 (1994) codified a renewed concern about the effects of the government's activities on minority and low- income populations.

Construction of the proposed project would have temporary impacts on vehicle and pedestrian access and require minimal pavement cuts. These temporary construction related adjustments would allow businesses in the area to continue to serve customers with minimized disruption. It is not anticipated that any businesses within the Study Area outside of the project footprint would have to temporarily or permanently cease operations due to construction activity. The overall duration of construction activities is anticipated to be 30 months; however, the duration of concentrated construction activities would be no more than six months at one location along the alignment. In addition, noncontiguous segments can be constructed at the same time. Construction would be completed in coordination with Downtown stakeholders and the business community in order to minimize potential impacts from construction, such as coordinating work at night and on weekends. The long -term benefits for the businesses within the Study Area include greater pedestrian and transit access for employees and customers alike. Response 8 -2 With regards to the Renaissance Plan, Fourth Street Facade Program, Community Improvement District (CID), and Property Based Improvement District (PBID), the proposed project would only involve the construction of a streetcar along the proposed alignment. None of the alternatives for this project include redevelopment or propose the establishment of a CID or PBID. The purpose of the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project is to: • Improve Transit Connectivity within the Study Area; • Relieve Congestion by Providing Alternative Mobility Options; • Be Sensitive to the Character of the Community; • Increase Transit Options; • Improve Transit Accessibility to and within the Study Area; and • Provide Benefits to the Environment through Improved Air Quality. Section 2.9 on page 2 -29 of the EA /DEIR describes the selection and evaluation of alternatives for the project. The alternatives analysis process consisted of four major steps: (1) Preliminary Definition of Alternatives, which included creating a range of conceptual alternatives that could potentially satisfy the Purpose and Need and meet the goals and objectives for the project; (2A) Initial Screening (Route Options) to eliminate route options with fatal flaws and those that do not satisfy the Purpose and Need and meet the goals and objectives of the project; (213) Initial Screening (Technology Options) to eliminate technology options with fatal flaws and those that do not satisfy the Purpose and Need and meet the goals and objectives of the project and Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a cJ 0150 January 2015 75A -108 determine the reduced set of alternatives to be carried forward for detailed analysis; and (3) Detailed Evaluation and Environmental Impact Analysis of the reduced set of alternatives and selection of the Locally Preferred Alternative. The EA /DEIR provided the City with a comparison of environmental impacts between the alternatives. The routes for the alternative alignments were based on ridership, engineering constraints, and environmental factors. The potential disruption to businesses is discussed on page 3 -197 of the EA /DEIR. The most disruptive construction activities would be limited to a 24 -month period; however, these activities would be sequenced by segment so that any one segment would experience disruption for a portion (no more than six months) of the construction duration. As stated on page 3 -202 of the EA/DEIR, access to businesses would be maintained during business operating hours. In addition, the second sentence in the second to last paragraph on page 3 -202 of the EA /DEIR has been revised to state that signage would be posted to alert customers that businesses are open during construction and wayfinding to businesses whose access is disrupted. Signs would also be posted alerting nearby businesses of temporary lane reductions, weekend or nighttime closures, and /or detours. Construction would be completed in coordination with Downtown stakeholders and the business community in order to minimize potential impacts from construction, such as coordinating nighttime or weekend work. In addition, the Downtown portion of the alignment would be constructed at the beginning of the construction process to limit impacts to businesses. Response 8 -3 Section 2.9 on page 2 -29 of the EA /DEIR describes the public outreach for the development of alternatives, scoping, and circulation of the EA /DEIR. Section 3.5 on page 3 -61 of the EA /DEIR discusses additional public outreach in relation to targeting environmental justice (EJ) populations. Beginning in 2008 and continuing throughout project development to March 2014, in preparation for the public review of the EA /DEIR, the City of Santa Ana conducted outreach to the Downtown businesses. The City's multi - lingual outreach team conducted door -to -door visits to approximately 230 businesses in the Downtown area, including approximately 156 businesses along 4 1 Street. The purpose of the outreach was to share key information with Downtown business and property owners about the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project, inform them about the upcoming release of the EA/DEIR, document questions and input, and provide business owners with appropriate contact information for additional follow -up. A "Sorry We Missed You" letter and information packet was also prepared and left behind for business owners who were not available during the initial visit. The letter offered a briefing with the outreach team to review the project information packet. Regarding public outreach to potentially affected business owners along 4m Street, extensive efforts were conducted to involve the public and stakeholders in the successful planning for the implementation of a streetcar along the alignment and through the Downtown area. Prior to the release of the EA/DEIR, numerous meetings were held with stakeholders throughout the Study Area to obtain input and provide updates on the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project. Community meetings were held with the Lacy neighborhood, the French Park neighborhood, the Santiago Lofts Homeowners Association, the Santa Ana Senior Center, and many other stakeholders. Stakeholder Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 51 January 2015 75A -109 comments were collected and recorded at each meeting. In addition, a series of Stakeholder Working Group meetings were held to involve key business people and leaders in the community. Below is a list of organizations which received presentations on the proposed project: • French Park Association • Kennedy Commission • Santa Ana Collaborative for Responsible Development • Santiago Lofts Homeowners Association • Artesia Filar Neighborhood Association • Labor Union Members • Federal Courthouse • Santa Ana Senior Center • Stakeholders Working Group • Santa Ana City Council • Santa Ana Restaurant Association • Temple Calvario • State Appellate Court • Orange County Superior Court • Rancho Santiago Community College District Board of Trustees • Lacy Neighborhood • SARTC Community Meeting to discuss the Santa Ana Train Station • Board of Directors, Santa Ana Merchants Association • Downtown Inc • Santa Ana Merchants Association • Santa Ana Unified School District • Stakeholders Working Group Advisory Committee • One -on -one briefings with 140 Downtown Businesses • Santa Ana City College • Railway Association of Southern California • Santa Ana Unified School District Board • Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) • Everest College /Corinthian College • Santa Ana Resource Network • Orange County Business Council • Orange County Transportation Authority Transportation 2020 Committee • Federal Transit Administration • California Public Utilities Commission staff • County of Orange Supervisors and staff In accordance with CEQA and NEPA regulations, the Notice of Availability of the EA /DEIR for public review was filed and posted at the Orange County Clerk- Recorder's Office in compliance with PCR Sections 21080.4 and 21092; advertised in the local newspaper; flyers were distributed at every community center in the City of Santa Ana; outreach was also conducted via social media; and a press release was covered by at least three different news organizations. Although not required under CEQA or NEPA regulations, available data from County Assessor and City property records were used to establish a list of property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the alignment. There were 3,796 postcards delivered to property owners, business owners, tenants, and residents related to EA /DEIR availability for public review. Hard copies of Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 52 January 2015 75A -110 the notifications and document were also made available at different locations (Santa Ana City Hall Public Works Counter, Santa Ana City Hall City Clerk's Office, Santa Ana Public Library, Salgado Center, Rosita Park, Santa Ana Train Station, Garden Grove City Hall, and OCTA), as well as online on the City of Santa Ana website. Response 8 -4 As shown in Figure 3.3 -2 on page 3 -20 of the EA /DEIR, none of the alternatives would result in the full acquisition of property or the displacement of residents and tenants within the referenced Santa Anita Neighborhood directly behind the Willowick Golf Course. Near the Santa Anita Neighborhood, the proposed alignment would be constructed entirely within the PE ROW and no residents would be displaced within this area. It is not anticipated that the proposed project would affect existing vacant properties and the increased accessibility upon implementation of the proposed project is not anticipated to cause future property vacancies. Response 8 -5 The following response directly relates to each of the points the commenter made regarding (1) lack of inclusion in the planning process, (2) questionable objectives for specified project, (3) project costs, (4) disruptive construction, vacant properties, displacement, and (5) public safety issues. (1) Lack of inclusion in the planning process. See Response 8 -1 regarding public outreach. Specific outreach efforts were conducted to include communities of EJ concern, particularly Limited English Proficiency.(LEP) communities, in the planning process. The following activities were conducted specifically to ensure participation from communities of EJ concern, per requirements under Executive Orders 12898 and 13166: • Identifying and meeting with environmental justice stakeholders, including Templo Calvario, neighborhood associations, community groups, and senior centers. • Established a project information hotline with outgoing messages in English and Spanish. • Translated and submitted notices for publication in the following local Spanish language newspapers: • Excelsior (Spanish language weekly of the Orange County Register on May 24, 2010) • Miniondas (June 3, 2010) • Conducted visits by a multi - lingual outreach team to approximately 230 Downtown businesses, including approximately 156 along 4`h Street to provide information about the project, the upcoming release of the EA /DEIR, and contact information for additional follow- up. (2) Questionable objectives for specified project. The proposed project is a transit improvement project being considered by the Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove in cooperation with OCTA and FTA to improve mobility and provide other community enhancements. The proposed project's objectives are derived from the need for transportation improvements in the Study Area, which address a variety of community issues. The identification of these needs and corresponding goals and objectives are stated in Table 1 -1 on page 1 -14 of the EA /DEIR. Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g e153 January 2015 75A -111 (3) Project costs. Comparative costs were presented in Table ES -1 on page ES -15 of the EA /DEIR, and shown below, to allow for public input and for consideration by the decision - makers prior to taking any action on the proposed project.

The cost difference between the options is approximately $11 million, and is related to the estimated cost to acquire the right -of -way. Operations & Maintenance Facility Site A would cost approximately $37.4 million and Operations & Maintenance Facility Site B would cost approximately $26.4 million. Operations & Maintenance cost projections are important for assessing cost effectiveness and to conduct financial planning. The TSM bus costs were estimated based on current transit cost information provided by OCTA. The Operations & Maintenance cost projections for the streetcar alternatives were based on operating cost per revenue hour derived from historical Portland and Seattle bus -to- streetcar Operations & Maintenance cost per revenue vehicle hour ratios. These ratios were averaged and applied to the OCTA bus cost per revenue vehicle hour. The estimated Operations & Maintenance cost for each build alternative is summarized in Table ES -2 on page ES -16 and shown below.

Construction details and associated impacts are discussed on page 3 -197 of the EA/DEIR. A comprehensive community outreach program would be developed prior to the start of construction activities. For business owners and commercial property owners, the disruption of construction activities would involve multiple construction crews operating along the corridor simultaneously. As stated on page 3 -202 of the EA /DEIR, access to businesses would be maintained during business operating hours. In addition, the second sentence in the second to last paragraph on page 3 -202 of the EA/DEIR has been revised to state that signage would be posted to alert customers that businesses are open during construction and wayfinding to businesses whose access is disrupted. Signs would also be posted alerting nearby businesses of temporary lane reductions, weekend or nighttime closures, and /or detours. Construction would be completed in coordination with Downtown stakeholders and the business community in order to minimize potential impacts from construction, such as coordinating nighttime or weekend work. It is not anticipated that the proposed project would affect existing vacant properties. The proposed project does not include a land use development component other than the maintenance facility. Acquisitions requiring displacement would comply with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act). Acquisitions related to the build alternatives are shown in Table 3.3 -5 on page 3 -23 of the EA /DEIR and shown below. The proposed project would result in three full acquisitions and six partial acquisitions; Streetcar Alternative 2 would result in six full and ten partial acquisitions; IOS -1 would result in four full and two partial acquisitions; and IOS -2 would result in five full and six partial acquisitions. The amount and type of private property acquisitions were found to result in less- than - significant impacts. (5) Public safety issues. Modern streetcars operate similar to buses in city streets, moving with the flow of traffic and allowing passenger pick -up and drop off at designated stops. Public outreach and education programs would be offered to familiarize local residents and business owners with the new streetcar system. In addition, the system would be required to meet the federal requirements of 49 CFR Part 659 and State requirements of California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) General Order 164D. These regulations require fixed guideway systems to establish system safety and security programs. Based on the establishment of the safety and security programs, hazards and security threats would be minimized. In addition, CPUC must certify that the project is safe and secure before the project can be placed in revenue service. Following construction, the project would be operated in accordance with OCTA standard operating procedures, operator rules, and the emergency plan. The EA /DEIR analyzed potential public safety impacts and addressed safety concerns associated with schools; Mitigation Measures SAF1 through SAFE, identified in Section 3.15.3 on page 3 -195 of the EA/DEIR, would be implemented as part of the project. These measures include lighting, fencing, signage and education delivered to students and parents to warn of potential hazards. The EA/DEIR found that with implementation of mitigation measures, no adverse safety impacts would occur. Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g 0155 January 2015 75A -113 The last portion of the comment requested an equity assessment for the proposed project. An EJ analysis, which identifies minority and low- income populations and evaluates whether the adverse effects of the proposed project would disproportionately burden these vulnerable populations, was included in Section 3.5 of the EA /DEIR. This analysis was completed using prescribed methodology by the FTA, which was developed in response to Executive Order 12898 and is consistent with U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Order 561O2(a) and FTA Circular 4703.1. In determining the adverse effects, the project must consider both short - term and long -term consequences and weigh them against the benefits of the proposed project. As shown in Table 3.5 -2 on page 3 -49 of the EA /DEIR, and presented below, all of the communities within the Study Area are considered EJ populations. The communities closest to the alignment would benefit the most from increased accessibility and connectivity but would be subject to temporary construction effects. Section 3.5.2.3 of the EA/DEIR provides a detailed evaluation of the potential EJ effects for each community within the Study Area. Additional detail is provided in the Community Impact Assessment, which is included as Appendix C of the EA /DEIR. The EA/DEIR determined that the proposed project would have no adverse health and environmental effects related to land use, visual quality, cultural resources, geotechnical conditions, hazardous materials, hydrology, traffic, noise and vibration, air quality and greenhouse gases, and safety and security. Transportation effects from the project are expected to be beneficial because of the improved accessibility and connectivity provided by the new transit service. The benefits to transit users would include improved access to employment and activity centers. The proposed project would distribute station amenities, parking, improved jobs and housing access, and other beneficial project features. Construction activity would occur along the project alignment and at stations and staging areas, which would affect all communities along the alignment equally. These effects are described in Response 8 -1 and in more detail in Section 3.16 on page 3 -197 of the EA /DEIR. Transit service is meant to serve where the demand is greatest, and these areas are often have more development intensity are likely to be affect by construction activity. However, these short -term construction effects would be outweighed by the long -term permanent beneficial impacts that would affect EJ populations. Since the EJ communities within the Study Area would be the primary recipients of the benefits of the project, there would not be a denial in the receipt of benefits to minority and low- income populations. Response 8 -6 The Declaration of Opposition from 12 business owners for the same reasons as stated in the above comments was forwarded to the decision makers for consideration.

Dear Proposed Route Comment Committee, This comment is being submitted on behalf of Downtown, Inc. (DTI) members. DTI represents the Downtown and Artists Village merchants and property owner's. DTI does not endorse the bus option, option number three. Of the 2 fixed guide options, option number one is the preferred route so that the fixed guide will stay closer to the Downtown and Artist Village business districts. Option number two's west bound route stops at Civic Center at Main and Civic Center at Broadway and leaves the riders too far north of the Downtown and Artist Village. DTI is a strong supported of the fixed guiideway project and we stand willing to help as needed.

Design refinements may occur as the project's engineering plans are finalized. The evaluation of changes to the proposed project would be conducted in compliance with FTA implementing guidelines for NEPA (23 CFR 771.129) and CEQA Guidelines (PRC Section 15162). Project changes that would not result in new significant or adverse impacts as compared to what has been evaluated and disclosed in this FEIR would be evaluated and documented in an Addendum to the FEIR and possibly an Environmental Technical Memorandum as a supplement to the EA in compliance with FTA and NEPA requirements. Project changes that would potentially result in new or adverse significant impacts as compared to what has been evaluated and disclosed in this FOR would be evaluated and documented in a supplemental or subsequent environmental document. A supplemental or subsequent document would be subject to the same noticing requirements as the EA /DEIR and public outreach would be conducted to allow community input and participation.

We want your 5 Center and eastbound on Fifth Street, but there are some 6 input. We need your input. And you don't have to do it 6 challenges. Longer, more circuitous route. The longer j 7 today. You can think about, have a meeting, talk to your 7 route means greater costs, about seven percent higher 8 friends, take a vote, and then send it in by email, fax, 8 costs, and it does have a little bit of a more significant 9 etcetera, at cetera. 9 rider impact for streetcars. 10 And here are the challenges and the benefits for 10 And then there's the bus option. Of course, your 11 streetcar alternative one. One benefit, it serves the 11 capital costs are going to be lower up front because buses 12 greatest number of transit dependent households. There's a i 12 are cheaper than the light rail vehicles. It doesn't 13 lot of people that depend on transit. Highest daily 13 require any additional right -of -ways. There's really no 14 ridership. One experience I have is that whatever your 15 ridership projections are, they're usually overachieved. J 14 adverse impact on the environment. But the challenges are, 15 it's the lowest daily ridership, so the impact on ridership 16 if they say they're going to do this, it's going to be much 16 is not positive. Buses are smaller, less capacity. 17 greater. People are always worried about ridership. I 17 They're less efficient. The boarding is not as convenient 18 guarantee you, its going to be full. The people are going 18 and it provides very, very little economic development. 19 to use the Hain, the light rail. Operations and 19 In general, economic development should not be a 20 maintenance costs are one of the things that we focused on 20 driving force, but if you live along the light rail or have 21 to keep those costs low, and of course what is the best 21 a business there, the economic impact is usually five to 22 land use. 22 one. So for every dollar invested in infrastructure, you 23 Some of the challenges are, it does impact some 23 get about a $5.00 return. That's a general role of thumb. 24 parking. The good news is, the streetcar, because it's in 24 Some places are lower. Some places are higher. But that's 25 the traffic lane, you could still have parking. Maybe a Page 9 25 in my experience what I've seen. Page to !i I So why the streetcar? They're very reliable. I 1 1 director. I don't think half of them knew it, bill when you 2 remember when I lived off the streetcar in Phoenix, I told ! 2 look at this, there's two cities in America that are among 3 someone out of my bedroom window, I actually could see the 3 the top 15 in density. They're both in Orange County and 4 station and I would send a text and they would say that a 4 they're the only ones that don't have a streetcar or light 5 streetcar would be there in five minutes. I'd look in the i 5 rail. And Santa Ana's No. 4. Almost 12,000 people per 6 mirror, go like this, walk down my stairs, go down the ! 6 square mile. This is a very dense city. Poster child for 7 stairs and across the street, and the train's waiting for 7 a streetcar. We're in between Boston and Chicago. Very, 8 me. Isn't drat beautiful? 8 very interesting. So there it is, density. 9 Who takes the bus here? Nobody? You do. I used 9 How do the costs compare? Well, when you look at 10 to wait at the bus. It was like an eternity. When's it 10 a house or look at something over the long tern, you have I l coming? When will it get here? You never know. But the 11 to take all the costs into consideration. What you £tad 12 trains, they run on time acrd it's awesome. Very friendly 12 out, for what I believe is a very, very high level of 13 environmentally obviously. It does foster walkability, 13 service, the cost for the streetcar is right in line with 14 more pedestrian. 14 the cost for the bus. So the total cost over 25 years 15 Again I mentioned the economic development. And 15 capital, O & M, for the bus is 363. You can see the 16 it's very compatible with the scale and the character of j 16 streetcar one is 361 and the streetcar two is a little bit 17 the city. Especially Santa Ana. Santa Ana used to have a 18 streetcar. I remember working at the library, and it had a !! 1 17 higher. And that's our study and analysis, and so we 18 believe that when you look at the costs, the streetcar 19 nice streetcar, a red streetcar. It used to go down Fourth 19 actually can come in either the same as the bus or in some 20 Street. j 20 cases even lower. 21 This is something that's really, really 21 Next slide. One of the things that we did with 22 surprising. Who's seen this chart? Density. Density is 22 Orange County Transit Authority is we said, we're partners. 23 like the driving force behind mass transportation. The 23 Partners meaning that you have a partnership of 24 higher density, the higher need for mass transportation. I 24 participation and so we agreed that 10 percent of the net 25 showed this to the Orange County Transit Authority board 25 cost that Santa Ana world participate in is estimated at Page 11 75A 237 Page 12 -- ------- .---- - - - - -- - - -- I between five or 600,000 once this is up and raining, and I National Environmental Policy Act and the California 2 the city council, based on my recommendation, voted 2 Environmental Quality Act requirements. That's why it 3 unanimously to support that. We sent that to the OCTA. 3 takes five or six years to get this done. You have to do a 4 They're doing a study right now to look at implementation 4 really good job in analyzing all of these impacts. 5 options and also a financing plan, but it's really good for 5 So when looking at the route, we want to make 6 them to have a commitment from the City of Santa Ana for 10 6 sure that we serve the people, especially those that are 7 percent of the costs, so there it is. 7 transit dependent, people that need a bus, people that need 8 We also are looking at options. Of course we're 8 a train. Not everybody can afford a car. Cars are 9 working with the Transit Authority. We're looking at local 9 expensive. Gas is like, wow, forget about it. It's really 10 Measure M2 monies that come in, federal fiords. Again, this 10 expensive. I was talking to someone this morning and they 11 is a very, very desirable project from a transit I 1 were telling me they bought an electric oar, and lie goes, 12 perspective at the federal level, state funds, the fare 12 wow, my electric bill went up, but my gas was four times ash 13 box. We can get advertising fees and also we can look 13 high. So it's really saving money. This train system's 14 towards developer contributions. A lot of times they will ( 14 going to run on electricity. 15 contribute to the projects, which is really good. j 15 Ease of use and ridership, nice stations. People 16 So what is the purpose of the environmental i 16 can put their bike in there, people that have accessibility 17 analysis? We want everyone to know that the environmental 17 issues, it's better for them. We want to get people's 18 input from the communities, and of course the economic l8 analysis is focused on the following key areas. What's the j 19 effect on the community? What abort cnvironrnentaljustice, 19 development potential. 20 visual quality, cultural resources, parking, noise and 20 So what's happening in the future? We've got 21 vibration, air quality, and construction. All of these are 21 more action. After we get your input, we're going to 22 things that we are considering and getting input on in 22 review it, we're going to look at all your comments, and 23 terms of what we look at. And all of this, and everything 23 then we're going to make a recommendation to the city 24 that we're doing, that's why it takes so long, its taken 24 council that this is the local preferred alternative. This 25 years, years to do this, and it's in compliance with the 25 is the route that we're recommending and here's the reasons Page 13 Page 14 r t why. So that will happen in August. 1 you want as to be to get your comments. You can give it to 2 And then we're going to go back to our partner 2 us today, just hand it to as, right. Who can they give it 3 with the Orange County Transit Authority and acknowledge j 3 to? 4 that we've completed the step to make sure that they're 4 JASON GABRIEL: Just leave them here and we'll collect 5 also in agreement, and then right now it's scheduled for 5 them. 6 October. Maybe we can do it sooner, and we can go ahead 6 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: You can mail them to us. You 7 and certify the DEIR based on the input that we got. And 7 can email them to us. You can fax it to us. You can give 8 than our goal would be in October that the Federal Transit 8 it to us on-line. And they can give it to us now. We'll 9 Administration would find no significant impact, and rhea ! 9 take thorn verbally eight up to speed, perfect. Does 10 based on what else we picked up determine the schedule, 10 anybody want to talk to the court reporter? I l financing, and implementation and we go to work. 11 MADELEINE SPENCER: Yes. Also are we having public 12 Now, I will tell that you we have done such a 12 comments or is that not happening bare right/ now? 13 good job that the Federal Transit Authority tools three days 13 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: So who wants to make public 14 to review our environmental document and said, go ahead and 14 comments? Okay. Can you do that? Can you take her 15 release it. So that's a good, good sign that we've done a 15 comments? Okay. You first, Madeleine. 16 lot of good work. 16 MADELEINE SPENCER: Okay. You want me to give my 17 We're going to address every single comment here 17 public comments? 18 in the public review process. We will certify the 18 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Yeah. 19 environmental document, again posting TAa and a finding 19 MADELEINE SPENCER: I'mjust going to start with just 20 plan, and wa71 do a fending agreement to make sum that 20 where we are right now, which is in this room. So this 21 there's no confusion. We'll do construction and then 21 meeting today has about probably 10 people in it. You said 22 operations of course will occur probably a couple years j 22 that there's not a single person in here who needed 23 later if everything goes according in plan. 23 translation. 24 So we want your comments. Give us your input. j 24 There is -- 1 see one of the property owners who PHI -i 25 IC's a quarter to 10:00. We'll be here until however long 25 have a business downtown mid there's a new person hero who Page i5 75A-238 Page 16 I I spoke to from Oregon, and I live in the French Park 1 I took the actual transit system tour with Jill 2 community. I know that this guideway's going to come 2 Arthur before she was fired and I heard exactly what the 3 through. I never received and I know that multiple people 3 idea of this transit system being for was, ajudge from 4 in my neighborhood never received any kind of flier for 4 Dana Point -- these are her words -- coming down to Santa 5 this meeting, and I got mine from a community center, so': 5 Ana and that being judge being able to go to work from, 6 that part is also tine. 6 first come down the Metro Line, come to work, get on the li 7 Many of the people in this city it's known are 1 7 transit system, go up and work at the courthouses. Then be 8 renters. They're not actually property owners. So. unless 8 taken back downtown to go to hmch and then be taken up to 9 you guys are doing outreach to property owners, you said PHI -+ 9 our, which we don't have now, W ihowick Golf Course to play 10 that you guys went to neighborhood associations. There's 10 a round of golf. 11 64 neighborhoods in this city, and of those there's 11 Now those things -- oh, and Tallahassee, j 12 probably about 15 that are active neighborhood 12 Tennessee, she says if there's people who come in from 13 associations. So I'm curious to larow specifically what I 13 Tallahassee, Tennessee, to Disneyland, that maybe, you PH+a 14 were the neighborhood association groups that you guys 14 know, one day they don't want to go to Disney. They just 15 spoke to on this fixed guideway. 15 want to come to downtown Santa Ana and have a good time at 16 The other questions that I have have to do with, 16 the nightlife. So this transitory is not specifically 17 we'll start with the article that came out recently that it 17 being made for the people who actually live in the City of 18 was talking in the Register of the differences between this 18 Santa Ana and it's not going to connect to what's happening 19 project and the project that actually is being done in 19 in Disneyland. 20 Anaheim or is being talked about. And I want to know for 20 And it says it's for bus averse riders. Now the 21 the same reasons that Tate described how that's not going 21 demographic of this population here, everybody in this 22 to be happening here which is, he said, years of disruptive 22 room, one person said that they're a bus rider, but the PHI-a 23 construction, traffic congestion, mostly empty streetcars, PH1.e i 23 population of the City of Santa Ana, there's a vast number 24 injured residents and a money pit residents cannot afford. 24 of people that ride buses and none of them are in this 25 Vintage trolleys that cater to tourists. 25 room, so, and there's a lot of things that could be done to j Page 17 Page 18 1 actually help our bus systems here. 1 here. 2 We have -- it says, spur economic development. 2 This also creates a safety issue. They've shown 3 Now you know, for big buildings like Mike Comes's 3 that these guideways lots of times are hitting people and 4 building, downtown you have to have a certain number of 4 there's an actual school. In one of the routes that you P a 5 occupancy before you can actually make that building. I 5 guys are describing, there is actually a school that 6 would like to know the number of businesses that are 6 children are going to be walking across this line. So 1 7 planning on coming in according to the plan that Mr. Polido 7 have questions about that. 8 says are going to be along this transit system because if 8 And then the other thing is -- oh, another thing 9 we don't have occupancy, I don't know in what way all thes j 9 is properties. In this city, talking about businesses, we 10 businesses are going to flock to Santa Ana to come up aloe t0 have about 242 properties with 781 spaces that are vacant 11 this rail. Pn1> t 11 in the City of Same Ana and chat's commercial, retail, and 12 Tate said, I worry about seeing empty streetcars. 12 industrial spaces. Those spaces are not filled now. We're PHI$ 13 Streetcars are fixed, and once you put them in, you can't 13 losing money and tux dollars on those spaces and we're 14 change the route to meet the demand. Morlock says that 14 talking about bringing in new businesses. Why not fill up 15 it's novel. It's not safer than a buts. It's not more 15 the spaces that are already vacant in the city with 16 flexible than a bus. 16 businesses so that we can actually take care of that, 17 240 million dollars in investments is going to 17 And in San Francisco, there was something called 1.8 help to shape the quality of life in Santa Ana. Now 240 18 the Six Big Winds with breakthrough communities and one of 19 million dollars in investments, we were at a meeting to get 19 the things that they were required to do when they put in 20 STIP funding so that people would stop getting hit because 20 their transit system was an equity analysis. And I'm just 21 people are regularly bit on streets here, on body their PHi -5 PHI -T i 21 going to tell you guys, an equity analysis, what exactly is 22 bicycles and in walking, and they said in Orange County, it 22 that? It's an executive order that was codified with a 23 was Lucy Dunn said, I'm sorry, we are broke in Orange 23 renewed concern about the effects of government activities 24 County, and WC cannot actually give STIP funding to help ' 24 on minority and low income populations. It states that 25 the number of people that are dying walking across streets 25 each federal agency shall make achieving environmental Page 19 75A 239 Page 20 I justice part of its mission. You said that there is an 1 documentation showing that that is in fact the case, and to 2 environmental justice component in this, but specifically 2 prevent the denial or reduction in a significant delay in 3 these would be qualitative measures, but the renewed 3 the recipients of benefits by minority and low income 4 concern for equity impacts of government actions -- !i 4 populations. 5 THE COURT REPORTER: Pu sorry. Can you slow down 5 So there's nobody in this room, although the city Poi-7 6 just a little bit. j 6 is 80 percent Latino, there's nobody in this room that aom. 7 MADELEINE SPENCER: Yeah, actually you know what, I i 7 needs the equipment that's in the back, which shows that i 8 will write in specifically what I'm saying so that you have 1 8 there's actually something wrong with the way you guys are t 9 it i 9 doing outreach, and if there's about 10 people in this A ] 0 THE COURT REPORTER: Okay, thank yon. Fin-7 10 room, it's not because everybody's happy. That's all 11 MADELEINE SPENCER: But a renewed concern for equity I I CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Thank your so much for those 12 impacts of government actions has strong resonance in the 12 comments, and if you can put those on a card, that's great, 13 transport policy arena because in transportation, 13 Otherwise we'll do the best we can to capture the 14 throughout history, it's been used to affect minority { 14 information and that will be pert of the record and then 15 populations, and this actual study would help to avoid and 15 well respond to each of those comments. Thank you very t6 minimize and mitigate disproportionately high and adverse 16 much. 17 human health environmental effects, including socioeconomic 17 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Ijust want to say one thing, 18 effects to the minority population and low income 18 that I agree with the one tiring Chat Madeleine said was 19 populations to ensure full and fair participation by all 19 that I also live in the area and I never received anything PH1 -8 20 potentially affected communities in transport and decision 20 in the mail and I am a property owner. I did get 21 making processes. 21 everything by email So if the outreach is by mail, just 22 This transit system actually goes in the opposite �'. 22 try to stay a little bit more on top of that. 23 direction of where most people in this city go to work, 23 But I would like to know if you've already III 24 which is the other way. So if these things have been 24 figured out how much it would cost for people to take the '�.I PHla 25 checked in those neighborhoods, there would actually be 125 light transit because I think the majority of the people Page 21 Page 22.. ' -_ _. u 1 that will be using it will be the ones that take the bus. i I respond to as part of the Environmental Impact Report. She 2 And then also the stops along the route, I think it would 2 had dozens of questions in that statement, Some of the 3 be nice if they were all in conjunction with the normal bus 3 information we don't have. For example, just as an 4 stops so then that way people will know. 4 example, I don't know what the cost is going to be. We 5 1 personally think it's a great thing. I like 5 don't know that yet. That's part of the financing plan '.. 6 No. 2 better than No. 1 because it's going in go down PHLB =lit 6 that OCTA is doing. I will tell you that historically it's 7 Fourth Street. And I think the reason why a lot of people 7 been a little bit higher than tie bus, but it's not been 8 aren't here is because it's Saturday morning mid I 8 something that has been a detriment for people to use. So 9 straggled to get here myself. 9 go ahead. 10 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: We have three different 10 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: I'm just saying, this is kind It options. 11 of the first real experience I've had with this plan, so 1 12 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: You said you liked No. 2 12 was curious if there's going to be a Q & A session 13 because it goes down Fourth Street? 13 afterwards because I had a couple questions. 14 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: No, No. 1. 1 don't like the 14 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Oh, you can stay afterwards am l5 one going down Fourth Street, 1 15 we can do that. It just can't be part of the public record 16 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Okay. I1 16 because this is input. 17 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: I have a question. i i 17 Yes, sir. 18 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: And we would love your 18 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: I did receive the notice in the 19 comments. Let's go in order. Madeleine first. You're 19 mail. 20 next. 20 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Good, Congratulations. We gc 21 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Ijust wanted to know, is there 21 a hit. 22 going to be a Q & A after this? � 22 SEAN POUCH: 1 live right on Smrla Ana Boulevard so I 23 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: There's no Q & A. We've been j 23 would be directly affected by this. I grew up in San Diego Puh -w 24 at this for five years. Any kind of question that you j 24 and I'm a big Fan of the streetcar system down there. I 25 have, we're going to document and then we're going to 25 went to San Diego State and the streetcar was finished a Page 23 -240 Page 24 75A I year after I graduated, so I never got to take advantage of 1 talk to you after the meeting. I have a lot of experience 2 it, but it was a great tool because parking there was 2 with these projects mid how well they've done and I'll 3 hysterical. I 3 share that with you after the meeting. Here we're just 4 My statement or I guess my question or however, ! 4 getting input. Anybody else have input? Yes. 5 as this project develops, there's opportunities for retail 5 RUBY CARDENAS: My name's Ruby Cardenas. I'm on the 6 to develop jobs. One of the main reasons I moved here was 6 Environmental and Transportation Advisory Commission, and I 7 the Center Line project, which was a predecessor of this 7 mean we've talked a lot about this project. I have 8 one, but the opportunity for retail along Fifth Street, if 8 pemonally some concerns. I live on Santa Ana Boulevard, 9 Fifth Street is the corridor for return, that could 9 and I know there's two schools right next to each other 10 activate a very dead street as well as the train station PHI -to 10 Romero, and I can't remember die other one. PHI -11 1 l which is -- and you've heard me say this -- its our most L0f u. 11 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Harvard. 12 under-utilized asset. So I'd love to see retail, and you 12 RUBY CARDENAS: Yeah. So its a concern with safety, U know, biggest level of affordability homes there, just to 13 you know, how fast is this transportation going to be going 14 create a sense of activation, 14 through that street, and also the parking. Parking is also 15 The problem is, one of the comments I've heard 15 already an issue. You have to schedule in your visitors, 16 about this development is that it's a streetcar to nowhere. 16 so that way you have parking on that street. � 17 1 would definitely use it to go downtown. By the time it's 17 Also one of the major concerns with this j 18 completed, I will probably qualify for the senior discount, I 18 transportation is, like Madeleine had pointed oat, is it 19 but I don't know anybody who is like, hey, let's go to 19 going to help the community that's taking the public 20 Garden Grove, right. I rmderstand it's going to be a 20 transportation? And something to take into consideration 21 transportation hub, but ultimately I would love to see the 21 is, if you pay, for example, a bus pass, is that going to Pal -12 22 city, at least our end, capitalize as we're putting down 22 help you be able to use this, that it's interchangeable, 23 the effort to create tax revenue over at the train station 23 because if it's an extra cost, I really don't see how 24 as well as at the past stops. So thank you. 24 people can take advantage of it if its to get to work or 25 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Again, not a response, but I'll 25 to get to whore they need to go to. Page 25 Page 26 1 I would also prefer if -- I would prefer a whole F in conjunction with those events because Fourth Street is 2 other option, but thaPs not one of the alternatives, if it PH -t4 2 usually closed off due to the awesomeness that happens 3 would have been Civic Center since it's already a street j i 3 there. 4 that's pretty open, there's no parking on parts of the 4 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Sure, those are all operational 5 street, but alternative to going through Fifth Street. 5 issues. Again, I can't answer questions. I'll be happy to 6 Like you had pointed out, there's so much of Santa Ana 6 talk to you after that. 7 that's not utilized, like even having restarunms in front 7 SEAN PULICH: And these are just things that Pm sure PNid3 I 8 ofrlte courthouse, you know, ifs a beautiful courthouse, 8 slot of people wouldjust be curious about Ihave no 9 and so I would also prefer that option. 9 idea. 10 1 know with the committee I'm in, with ETAC, 10 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: In my experience we have had, I I we've been wanting to have a meeting where we could voice I 1 again, in Phoenix, we had parades, we had marathons, we had 12 our opinion about what altemative we prefer. I would like 12 NFL games, we had NBA basketball, and we were able to 13 to -- I know because we were having these meetings, we 13 manage all that It works. 14 didn't want to confuse the public, but if there's a way we 14 Open comments about the options and the transit 15 could have this meeting after these meetings are done, l 15 authority? 16 think unit's a request that I would like to have. I speak 16 RUBY CARDENAS: I forgot something, too. 17 probably for the group because in our last meeting, it was 17 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: And your name again because 18 something we really wanted to do. 18 this is all official 19 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Thank you so much. Anyone else � 19 RUBY CARDENAS: Again, it's Ruby, last something to 20 that wants to make their comments to the public, we do have 20 also right now that you brought up Fourth Street, if 21 a court reporter that will take your comments, and again, 21 there's construction and how long it's going to be, I PHl -15 22 you can onmil, fax, 22 really think its going to impact the businesses there, 23 SEAN PULICH: I did have one concern. With the 23 rather Fifth Street that's not as much used or there's not 24 (inaudible) and the Ciaco De Mayo events, ifyou guys do go PHI 14 ( 24 a lot of businesses. 1 don't think it would be as 25 down Fomth Street, I wasEut curious how that would work 25 impaoted. Page 21 75A 241 Page 28 1 Also, l don't know If its misleading. On a lot 1 nice about it. So who hasn't spoken yet? We want to get 2 ofthe advertising, it already has it on Fourth Street, so 2 your comments,. Because the real goal here, this is a very 3 it gives flits impression, like the picture that you used at PHl -19 i 3 scientific approach. This is not a meeting to get applause i 4 the beginning ofthks power point, that was also utilized 4 and snaflike that. We want to get your input. We've 5 in the newspaper and that was also on the web site, it has 5 spent millions and millions of dollars W get the 6 it on FotvM Street So people when they see that, they 6 environmental assessment done. This is a very serious 7 already assume that its already set up. 7 project. Sown have to get the input. We have a court 8 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Do you notice anything? We had 8 reporter and we have to respond to it, and all of those 9 to pill a picture somewhere. Historically they had a 9 comments will go to the federal government as part of out 10 streetcar that was once on Fourth Sneer so we chose that, 10 submission. Yes, sir. I I but it's one of the options, but all of the options are 11 PAUL YANEZ: My name is Raul Yanez. I'm a business 12 what we want to bear about Rom you today. 12 and properly owner here in downtown Santa Ana for 35 years. 13 RUBY CARDENAS: And also making it a little bit mom 13 You were talking about meetings that you already had with 14 attractive.

Back in the eighties we 20 attractive? 20 had remodeling on the street. It just mined the business 21 SEAN PULICH: Make it gold. 21 for whatever time it takes. But back then in the eighties, j PHI -19 22 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: We can vote on colors later 22 the economy was really good. These days the economy's 23 once the train Is done 23 really, really bad. It's getting better, it's there, but I 24 Okay, anybody? Hold on a second. We got to go 24 think it's not the right time. Well, if you choose -- 25 m order here. So we want your comments, and that's what's !i, 25 which one is the one on Fourth Street, No. 2, No, 1? Page 29 Page 30 I CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Just tell us what you want. Wei 1 years? Five years. How many millions of dollars? 2 just want your input. 2 Millions of dollars. And we've gotten all the input and 3 RAUL YANEZ: I would like No. 2.

Do you like No. 1? Do you like No. 2? So 6 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: You want No. 2? 6 we have to take all of that and then put it in a body of 7 RAUL YANEZ: No. 2, which goes on Third or Fifth 7 paper and I can't do the Q & A because I don't have the 8 Street. 8 answers to all the questions. We actually have to sit 9 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: That's what we wanted. We 9 around a table and document it. You mentioned 400 10 wanted your input. Okay, who hasn't spoken yet? 10 vacancies, 300 this. I don't have all the information. 1 11 All right. Now we're going to go to people who t 1 I. After this meeting, Fm willing to stay with 12 spoke already if they want to talk again, Go for it. 12 anybody to have a friendly conversation, just to talk to 13 TISH LEON: I'm actually in the downtown neighborhood 13 people about their questions, and I will do the best I can 14 association and I was actually involved with this at the 14 to answer, but it's not part of the official record. 15 very beginning when they called certain community leaders 15 Because we've been doing it for five years and we had 16 to be in the steering committee when this was just a 16 public meetings, we had public hearings, we've had several 17 concept. I forget what year. And I've been to numerous 1 17 council meetings, and we'll have more, but it's just not 18 Q & A's, but what's really bothered a lot of people is like �!i PH'-20 18 part of this process. This is for public input. 19 because many of you, this is the first time you've been 19 TISH LEON: Right. Well, that's what I was saying, 20 here and so you can't get the answers W your questions 20 because I was part of it at the beginning when we had the 21 during this, and I know that this bothered some people when � 21 round table at the community center, but it's really 22 it was at the Amtrak station a couple of years ago, and so 22 unfortmrate because Santa Aim, I mean so many people com 23 hopefully you can have another Q & A. 23 and go and then there's new people and then they have these 24 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: I can't really -- so what's , 24 questions and concerns. 25 happening here is that we've been doing this for how many 25 CITY MANAGER. CAVAZOS: Absolutely. Page 31 Page 32 75A- 42 i I TISH LEON: And so, you know, I'm jus0looking at 1 I'm relatively new to Santa Ana, I don't know all the 2 their point of view because I did have that opportunity, 2 details, you're talking about prefer alternative No. 1 or 3 you know, being a resident of downtown, and knowing that 3 alternative No. 2, but the thing that's always been a 4 its going to impact me, favorably I hope, but you know, 4 question in my mind is Santa Ana Regional Transportation 5 I'm just thinking of those few that say that they've never 5 Center is like die transportation hub closest to John Wayne PH1 21 6 seen it � 6 Airport and I just never understood why the two haven't r. 7 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: That's why we have the book. 7 been connected. Every major airport in America has a train 8 All of the -- excuse me. Pm not done talking. 8 conning into it because it's just connecting those urodes of 9 The book talks about all the options, the 9 transportation and it's always baffled me that we've never 10 concerns, the alternative analysis, the environmental 10 had that. Maybe John Wayne like was a project and then it I l impact, and there's hundreds of pages here on comments, 11 got killed, but I'm just curious why this was kind of put 12 demographics, socioeconomic data. It was all captured as 12 forward instead of like an alternative to that project. 13 part of those meetings mid now it's available for public 13 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: So I'll talk to you about that I 14 review. 14 afterward because 1 can't answer that question now. We 15 And 1 was a huge proponent of having those 15 don't have an option to go to the airport right now. 16 meetings. We wanted more meetings to give land 16 Madeleine? 17 opportunities for people to give us their input and I'm 17 MADELEINE SPENCER: There was three other things. 18 willing to meet with anybody, any stakeholder, and sit 18 There's three other questions that I have. One of them has 19 around and talk to them, but what we really need now, now 19 to do with, I actually went door to door to the businesses 20 that we have the alternative analysis and the DEIR and the 20 on Fourth Street and every single one of 60 of those places PHI-22 21 options, we need your input on which option, if any, you 21 had never heard anything about the possibility of this 22 like. That's what welts doing. But if we wait five years, ''. 22 project going down Fourth Street, which would potential ly 23 we have to do a whole other book 23 impact those businesses a lot and already many of those 24 Who hasn't spoken yet? Yes, sir. 24 businesses are impacted because the daytime traffic has 25 SEAN PULICH: One thing I'm thinking abort here, and I PHI -21 25 slowed down, and I'm curious why exactly, those business Page 33 j Page 34 i — 1 owners, it seems like they would be flocking to hear about PNt,22 1 in that neighborhood as well and spoke to people and they 2 the potential of like this kind of constnictiou work ou �i. 2 had received letters from the city saying that they had 3 these streets, 3 five years to move out of their homes and that was really 4 The second question I have is about parking, and j 4 interesting to me because that's a use of eminent domain. PHI-24 5 on Fifth Street, when we took that tour, we saw that 5 So the question is where are -- I think that 6 there's these small houses and there are no back areas for i 6 there's some serious things going on here that I have a lot 7 them to park, and we asked her specifically, where are 7 of questions about, and if we need to bring all of this 8 people supposed to park down further on this line where 8 stuff in as proof to the city so that you can take a better 9 there's these small houses? And I live in a neighborhood PHl -23 9 look and do this equity assessment, I think that that would l0 where we get ticketed regularly. If we have friends over 10 be great. ll -- I actually have a garage, but if there's friends over, 11 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Yes, sir. 12 they get ticketed on our streets in Santa Ana for visiting, 12 SEAN PULICH: Sean Pulich again. I think all this 13 so it makes it like, oh, we don't want to come over and 13 information would be very useful on the web site. I think 14 visit your house because we're going to get ticketed. And 14 the web site could probably use some updates. It's still 15 then on top of it, you're going to be taking away just the 15 using flash. It's not very mobile friendly. 16 parking that is there for the houses that are there. 16 But in terms of adding value to this 17 And then the third thing is the Willowick, this 17 transportation, I've regularly taken Amtrak or Metrolink PHH�25 18 piece of land, I know it belongs to Garden Grove, and I'm 18 to L.A. or into downtown San Diego and Metrolink transfer. 19 really curious how, I know it's within our jurisdiction, 19 to the red line or any of the subway cars in Los Angeles. 20 but what are the city's plan in terms of development and 20 Adding value as traffic, as more people start moving to 21 how is also this development going to impact the Santa PHI-24 21 Orange County, if we can also work with Amtrak and 22 Anita neighborhood which is adjacent to it, which has a 22 Metrolink to make sure that we increase ridership on the 23 gang injunction. The only gang injunction in this area is 23 streetcar and make sure like Metrolink transfers to the 24 on that neighborhood and how is this whole process going t 24 streetcar as well, and even Amtrak, I'm not sure if that 25 impact that neighborhood? And I actually went door to doo 25 would work out, but just the idea of having those two be Page 35 75A 243 Page 36 — PHt -25 COOL - - -- I transferable, instead of having to go to a kiosk or. So 1 until about 200 o'clock in order to bring back and take 2 that's just suggestions. 2 people from the nightlife in Santa Ann. If this is going 3 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: More of a statement than an 3 to occur, l think OC'fA needs to really look at doing that 4 answer to your question, We have Orange County 4 with all the bus systems. There's people that get out of pl '27 cant 5 Transportation Authority and that's one of the .'..sons why 5 work at 11:00 and they miss the last bus and that's it. 6 the city wanted them to be the lead agency so they can 6 You know, l wouldn't find it fair that we have a light mil 7 coordinate all of those issues. j 7 traveling at the lasq you know, batch is at 2:00 o'clock, 8 Questions about the project or comments abort the g but all of the other transportation around finishes at 9 project? Input, public input? Yes, sir. 9 1 h00, so it's something to consider, 10 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: How long will it take from I PHI -R6 Ill CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Thankyea. Any other comments 11 start to finish? 11 for the public so wa can include it in our Environmental 12 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Well, we don't -- I can tell 12 Impact Report? l3 you that afterwards, but we wanted your input. If you want 13 Also, the next meeting again -- let's go through 14 us to answer that question, we can, but 1 can give you an 14 that schedule.

If people have questions, we'll document 1 16 There it is. 17 them and well answer them as part of the report. And 17 So our next meetings on June 17th, and firers at 18 what's good about that is everybody sees it, everybody sees 18 the Sane Ana Police Department, and three on Tuesday at 19 it, and the answer is a professional answer that is based ! 19 9:00 o'clock in the morning.

Section 3.5 on page 3 -61 of the EA /DEIR discusses additional public outreach in relation to targeting populations of EJ concern. Beginning in 2008 and continuing throughout project development to March 2014, in preparation for the public review of the EA /DEIR, the City of Santa Ana conducted outreach to the Downtown businesses. The City's multi - lingual outreach team conducted door -to -door visits to approximately 230 businesses in the Downtown area, including approximately 156 businesses along 4"' Street. The purpose of the outreach was to share key information with Downtown business and property owners about the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project, inform them about the upcoming release of the EA /DEIR, document questions and input, and provide business owners with appropriate contact information for additional follow -up. A "Sorry We Missed You" letter and information packet was also prepared and left behind for business owners who were not available during the initial visit. The letter offered a briefing with the outreach team to review the proposed project information packet. Regarding public outreach to potentially affected business owners along 4`" Street, extensive efforts were conducted to involve the public and stakeholders in the successful planning for the implementation of a streetcar along the alignment and through the Downtown area. Prior to the release of the EA /DEIR, numerous meetings were held with stakeholders throughout the Study Area to obtain input and provide updates on the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project. Community meetings were held with the Lacy neighborhood, the French Park neighborhood, the Santiago Lofts Homeowners Association, the Santa Ana Senior Center, and many other stakeholders. Stakeholder comments were collected and recorded at each meeting. In addition, a series of Stakeholder Working Group meetings were held to involve key business people and leaders in the community. Below is a list of organizations which received presentations on the proposed project: • French Park Association • Kennedy Commission • Santa Ana Collaborative for Responsible Development • Santiago Lofts Homeowners Association • Artesia Pilar Neighborhood Association • Labor Union Members • Federal Courthouse • Santa Ana Senior Center • Stakeholders Working Group • Santa Ana City Council • Santa Ana Restaurant Association • Templo Calvario • State Appellate Court • Orange County Superior Court • Rancho Santiago Community College District Board of Trustees • Lacy Neighborhood • SARTC Community Meeting to discuss the Santa Ana Train Station Santa Ana�Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g 01190 January 2015 75A -248 • Board of Directors, Santa Ana Merchants Association • Downtown Inc • Santa Ana Merchants Association • Santa Ana Unified School District • Stakeholders Working Group Advisory Committee • One -on -one briefings with 140 Downtown Businesses • Santa Ana City College • Railway Association of Southern California • Santa Ana Unified School District Board • Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) • Everest College /Corinthian College • Santa Ana Resource Network • Orange County Business Council • Orange County Transportation Authority Transportation 2020 Committee • Federal Transit Administration • California Public Utilities Commission staff • County of Orange Supervisors and staff In accordance with CEQA and NEPA regulations, the Notice of Availability of the EA /DEIR for public review was filed and posted at the Orange County Clerk- Recorder's Office in compliance with Sections 21080.4 and 21092 of the California Public Resources Code; advertised in the local newspaper; flyers were distributed at every community center in the City of Santa Ana; outreach was also conducted via social media; and a press release was covered by at least three different news organizations. Although not required under CEQA or NEPA regulations, available data from County Assessor and City property records were used to establish a list of property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the alignment. There were 3,796 postcards delivered to property owners, business owners, tenants, and residents related to EA /DEIR availability for public review. Hard copies of the notifications and document were also made available at different locations (Santa Ana City Hall Public Works Counter, Santa Ana City Hall City Clerk's Office, Santa Ana Public Library, Salgado Center, Rosita Park, Santa Ana Train Station, Garden Grove City Hall, and OCTA), as well as online on the City of Santa Ana website. Response PH1 -2 — Madeleine Spencer The comment lists six concerns associated with the proposed project, which are also discussed in Response 8 -5. Each of these concerns is addressed below. (1) Years of Disruptive Construction. Construction details and associated impacts are discussed on page 3 -197 of the EA /DEIR. The most disruptive construction activities would be limited to a 24 -month period; however, these activities would be sequenced by segment so that any one segment would experience disruption for a portion (no more than six months) of the construction duration. A comprehensive community outreach program would be developed prior to the start of construction activities. For business owners and commercial property owners, the disruption of construction activities would involve multiple construction crews operating along the corridor simultaneously. See Responses 8 -1 and 8 -5(4) for responses to similar comments on construction. Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAJFEIR P a g el 191 .January 2015 75A -249 Upon completion of project construction, the build alternatives would allow improved access to Downtown Santa Ana and other high- intensity areas of employment, commercial development, and recreational opportunities. Improved transportation service would enhance visibility and access to existing economic activity centers, including those businesses that would be temporarily affected by project construction and areas targeted for redevelopment. As stated on page 3 -202 of the EA/DEIR, access to businesses would be maintained during operating hours. In addition, the second sentence in the second to last paragraph on page 3- 202 of the EA /DEIR has been revised to state that signage would be posted to alert customers that businesses are open during construction and wayfinding to businesses whose access is disrupted. Signs would also be posted alerting nearby businesses of temporary lane reductions, weekend or nighttime closures, and /or detours. Pages 3 -218 and 3 -219 of the EA/DEIR include a Traffic Management Plan and a Noise and Vibration Control Plan to reduce construction effects. Construction would be completed in coordination with Downtown stakeholders and the business community in order to minimize potential impacts from construction, such as coordinating nighttime or weekend work. In addition, early construction plans call for the Downtown portion of the alignment to be constructed at the beginning of the construction process to limit impacts to businesses. It is not anticipated that the proposed project would affect existing vacant properties and the increased accessibility upon implementation of the proposed project is not anticipated to cause future property vacancies. Acquisitions are shown in Table 3.3 -5 on page 3 -23 of the EA /DEIR and in Response 8 -5. The proposed project would result in three full acquisitions and six partial acquisitions; Streetcar Alternative 2 would result in six full and ten partial acquisitions; IOS -1 would result in four full and two partial acquisitions; and IOS -2 would result in five full and six partial acquisitions. The amount and type of private property acquisitions were found to result in less- than - significant impacts. (2) Traffic Congestion. Section 3.10 (Traffic and Parking) of the EA/DEIR includes a detailed analysis of potential traffic impacts. In summary, the traffic analysis was prepared in accordance with requirements of City of Santa Ana and the Orange County Congestion Management Plan. The traffic analysis also considered the requirements of the City of Garden Grove. An intersection analysis was completed that accounted for streetcar operations in mixed -flow traffic. All intersections assessed for the proposed project would operate at similar or improved level of service (LOS) as the No Build Alternative. Intermediate stations are estimated to have minimal traffic impacts as only the stations at the project alignment termini provide parking. Therefore, the Locally Preferred Alternative would not result in adverse effects related to intersection congestion. A roadway segment capacity analysis was also completed because the proposed build alternatives would operate in mixed -flow traffic in the central and eastern portion of the Study Area. The build alternatives would not cause additional roadway segments to experience capacity deficiencies beyond those identified in the No Build Alternative. Therefore, the Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 192 January 2015 75A -250 proposed build alternatives would not result in adverse effects related to roadway segments in the Study Area. (3) Mostly Empty Streetcars. As discussed on page ES -15 of the EA /DEIR, it is estimated that the proposed project would attract between 3,770 and 8,400 riders per day in the 2035 horizon year. At the low end, this represents approximately 22 percent more riders than the TSM Alternative (3,085); at the high end, it represents approximately 172 percent more riders than with the TSM Alternative. Streetcar Alternative 2 would attract between 3,020 and 6,425 riders. At the low end, this would be approximately equivalent to the TSM Alternative; at the high end, it represents approximately 108 percent more riders than with the TSM Alternative. IOS -1 would attract between 2,012 and 4,490 riders, and IOS -2 would attract between 1,540 and 3,280 riders which is approximately 47 percent fewer riders than the full alignment alternatives. It is anticipated that additional ridership modeling will be completed as the project moves forward. (4) Injured Residents. Modern streetcars operate similar to buses in city streets, moving with the flow of traffic and allowing passenger pick -up and drop off at designated stops. Public outreach and education programs would be offered to familiarize local residents and business owners with the new streetcar system. In addition, the system would be required to meet the federal requirements of 49 CFR Part 659 and State requirements of California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) General Order 164D. These regulations require fixed guideway systems to establish system safety and security programs. Based on the establishment of the safety and security programs, hazards and security threats would be minimized. In addition, CPUC must certify that the project is safe and secure before the project can be placed in revenue service. Following construction, the project would be operated in accordance with OCTA standard operating procedures, operator rules, and the emergency plan. The EA /DEIR analyzed potential public safety impacts and addressed safety concerns associated with schools; Mitigation Measures SAF1 through SAFE, identified on page 3 -195 of the EA /DEIR, would be implemented as part of the project. These measures include lighting, fencing, signage and education delivered to students and parents to warn of potential hazards. The EA/DEIR found that with implementation of mitigation measures, no adverse safety impacts would occur. See Response 8 -5(5) for a response to a similar comment on public safety. (5) A Money Pit Residents Cannot Afford. The streetcar funding and fares have not been determined at this time. Information regarding possible funding sources have been identified and are under consideration but not approved. Due to this uncertainty, specific funding sources have not been identified in the REA /FEIR. A financing plan will be developed by OCTA prior to revenue operation of the proposed project. The financial analysis and evaluation for the proposed project is in the Executive Summary Section in Table ES -1 on page ES -15 of the EA/DEIR and shown below. See Response 8 -5(3) for a response to a similar comment on project costs.

Streetcar Alternatives 1 and 2 include the same two design options for the maintenance facility and the facilities proposed to be constructed on each of these sites are identical. The cost difference between the options is approximately $11 million, and is related to the estimated cost to acquire the right -of -way. Operations & Maintenance Facility Site A would cost approximately $37.4 million and Operations & Maintenance Facility Site B would cost approximately $26.4 million. Operations & Maintenance cost projections are important for assessing cost effectiveness and to conduct financial planning. The TSM bus costs were estimated based on current transit cost information provided by OCTA. The Operations & Maintenance cost projections for the streetcar alternatives were based on operating cost per revenue hour derived from historical Portland and Seattle bus -to- streetcar Operations & Maintenance cost per revenue vehicle hour ratios. These ratios were averaged and applied to the OCTA bus cost per revenue vehicle hour. The estimated Operations & Maintenance cost for each build alternative is summarized in Table ES -2 on page ES -16 and shown below.

(6) Vintage Trolleys That Cater to Tourists. Section 2.6.3 on page 2 -14 of the EA /DEIR discusses the type of streetcars that would be used for the build alternatives. Two types of streetcar vehicles have been identified for use which include the CPUC compliant and European style streetcars. A vintage trolley that caters to tourists is not included as an option as it would not best serve the purpose and need for the project which is discussed in Chapter 1 .0 beginning on page 1 -1 of the EA /DEIR. Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 194 January 2015 75A -252 Response PH1 -3 — Madeleine Spencer The Study Area is generally bounded by Harbor Boulevard to the west, 17`h Street to the north, Grand Avenue to the east, and 1s` Street to the south, and a connection to Disneyland is outside the scope of this project. The Anaheim Rapid Connection Project is a fixed guideway system currently being studied by the City of Anaheim and OCTA. This project includes a connection to Disneyland. Project information can be viewed at the following website: http: / /aconnext.com/ arc /overview /. Regarding local use of the streetcar system, anticipated ridership is discussed in Response PH1 -2. It is anticipated that the majority of riders would be local residents, business members, and school -aged children commuting along the alignment. Response PH1 -4 — Madeleine Spencer The comment states that the existing bus systems could be improved to serve the vast number of people who ride buses. Improved transit connectivity resulting from the proposed project would reinforce the viability of transit for workers commuting to the Civic Center and other transit - dependent people who live in other parts of Orange County to more easily access federal, State, and County social service agencies in the Civic Center area via bus lines from the surrounding region. See Response PH1 -2(3) related to empty streetcars. Regarding economic development, the streetcar would integrate well with the surrounding neighborhood by providing frequent service with short distances between stops and fostering an active pedestrian environment. No specific business have committed to relocating along the alignment at this time. Regarding flexibility in the route, it is acknowledged that streetcar routes are not easily changed to meet demand. One of the factors in the development of the alternative alignments was ridership and what routes would serve areas with the highest demand. As discussed on page ES -15 of the EA /DEIR, the Streetcar Alternative 1 route was identified as the route having the highest daily ridership after a comprehensive alternatives analysis. In addition to satisfying project objectives, public input, and environmental considerations, ridership was one of the factors considered when the City Council of the City of Santa Ana selected Streetcar Alternative 1 with Operations & Maintenance Facility Site B (west of Raitt Street) and 4t' Street Parking Scenario A (parallel parking) as the Locally Preferred Alternative for the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project on August 5, 2014. See Response PH1 -2(4) related to safety Response PH1 -5 — Madeleine Spencer The financial analysis and evaluation for the proposed project is in the Executive Summary Section on page ES -15 of the EA /DEIR.

Response PH1 -6 — Madeleine Spencer The comment does not include any comments directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA /DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g 01195 January 2015 75A -253 Response PH1 -7 — Madeleine Spencer An EJ analysis, which identifies minority and low- income populations and evaluates whether the adverse effects of the proposed project would disproportionately burden these vulnerable populations, was included in Section 3.5 on page 3 -36 of the EA /DEIR. This analysis was completed using prescribed methodology by the FTA, which was developed in response to Executive Order 12898 and is consistent with USDOT Order 56102(a) and FTA Circular 4703.1 . In determining the adverse effects, the project must consider both short -term and long term consequences and weigh them against the benefits of the project. As shown in Table 3.5 -2 on page 3 -49 of the EA /DEIR, and presented below, all of the communities within the Study Area are considered EJ populations. The communities closest to the alignment would benefit the most from increased accessibility and connectivity but would be subject to temporary construction effects. Section 3.5.2.3 of the EA /DEIR provides a detailed evaluation of the potential EJ effects for each community within the Study Area. In addition, the EA /DEIR determined that the proposed project would have no adverse health and environmental effects related to land use, visual quality, cultural resources, geotechnical conditions, hazardous materials, hydrology, traffic, noise and vibration, air quality and greenhouse gases, and safety and security. The EA /DEIR also discusses public outreach specific to EJ in Section 3.5 on page 3 -61 of the EA /DEIR. Extensive public outreach during the planning process has occurred in the Study Area and included specific outreach for communities of EJ concern, particularly LEP communities. The following activities were conducted specifically to ensure participation from communities of EJ concern, per requirements under Executive Orders 12898 and 13166: • Identifying and meeting with environmental justice stakeholders, including Templo Calvario, neighborhood associations, labor union members and senior centers. • Establishing a project information hotline with outgoing messages in English and Spanish. • Translating and submitting notices for publication in the following local Spanish language newspapers: • Excelsior (Spanish language weekly of the Orange County Register on May 24, 2010) • Miniondas (June 3, 2010) • Making notices and information available in the Public Law Center's website. The Public Law Center is a pro -bono law firm serving low- income communities in the City of Santa Ana and in the County of Orange ( http:// www .publiclawcenter.org /news.php ?headline= More+ Public +Transportation +Coming +to +Santa +Ana). • Translating presentation boards during scoping meetings, which followed an open house format. Exhibit 7, in the Community Impact Assessment included as Appendix C, provides samples of these boards. • Making available City of Santa Ana and subconsultant staff who were fluent in Spanish and were familiar with the proposed project and its stakeholders at the scoping meetings. Given the open house format of these scoping meetings, no real -time translation services were required as no formal presentations were given. However, Spanish- speaking staff was on hand to assist LEP community members. Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g 01196 January 2015 75A -254 • Translating comment forms on which community members could submit any comments, in English or Spanish. The outreach to EJ populations shall continue throughout the environmental process consistent with past practice. In summary, the short -term construction effects of the project would be outweighed by the long- term permanent beneficial impacts that would affect EJ populations. Since the EJ communities within the Study Area would be the primary recipients of the benefits of the project, there would not be a denial in the receipt of benefits to minority and low- income populations. Response P111 -8 — Unknown Speaker See Response PH1 -1 related to community outreach and distribution of notices. Response PH1 -9 — Unknown Speaker The support for Streetcar Alternative 2 was forwarded to the decision makers for consideration. The streetcar fares have not been determined at this time. The determination of fares would depend on the available funding for the project, the costs to operate the project and the anticipated revenue received from fares. The request for fare compatibility between systems was forwarded to the decision makers for consideration. See Response PH1 -2(5) related to costs. Improved transit connectivity resulting from the build alternatives would reinforce the viability of transit for workers commuting to the Civic Center via bus lines from the surrounding region. OCTA provides fixed route bus service and a countywide shared ride service, ACCESS, in Orange County. Figure 3.10 -2 on page 3 -121 of the EA/DEIR shows the OCTA fixed route bus service in and around the Study Area. Streetcar stops would be located near OCTA bus stops. A subset of OCTA's fixed route bus service is a rail station feeder - distributor service known as Station Link. OCTA currently operates a StationLink route (currently Route 462) in the Study Area between SARTC and the Downtown /Civic Center area of Santa Ana. SARTC is a hub of public transit service for central Orange County, serving as a major stopping and transfer point for intercity, interstate, and international bus services such as Greyhound and Transportes Intercalifornias. Response PH1 -10 — Sean Pulich The general support for the proposed project was forwarded to the decision makers for consideration. Regarding connectivity, the eastern terminus of the alignment is the SARTC, which is the busiest multi -modal transportation hub in Orange County and will connect the streetcar to Metrolink, Amtrak, and bus lines from the surrounding region. The western terminus is the Harbor Boulevard /Westminster Avenue intersection, where connections to local and intracounty buses operated by OCTA are available. Response PH1 -11 — Ruby Cardenas See Response PH1 -2(4) related to safety. More specifically, to address safety concerns associated with schools, Mitigation Measures SAF1 through SAFE, identified in Section 3.15.3 on page 3 -195 of the EA /DEIR, would be implemented as part of the project. These measures Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 197 January 2015 75A -255 include lighting, fencing, signage and education delivered to students and parents to warn of potential hazards. As described in Section 3.15.2.3 of on page 3 -191 of the EA /DEIR, the average speed for streetcars traveling along the proposed alignment, which takes into account speed reductions at school zones, entering and exiting of station areas, and complying with traffic control, would be approximately 11 miles per hour. Key roadways and their speed limits are shown on page 3 -117 of the EA /DEIR, and range between 25 and 40 miles per hour. The speed limit on Santa Ana Boulevard is typically 30 miles per hour in the Study Area. Section 3.10 -2.3 on page 3 -127 of the EA /DEIR discusses the potential impact of removing on- street parking for the build alternatives. The commenter lives on Santa Ana Boulevard and states that visitor parking is limited. As discussed on page 3 -126 of the EA /DEIR, the proposed project would remove approximately 53 percent of the street parking on Santa Ana Boulevard between Raitt and Flower Streets (73 of 143 parking spaces). The loss of parking on Santa Ana Boulevard would affect residential land uses. The City of Santa Ana requires every residential property along this segment of Santa Ana Boulevard to have on -site parking capacity consistent with City zoning and occupancy entitlements. The EA /DEIR states that there is adequate although potentially less convenient parking to accommodate residential parking needs along this segment of Santa Ana Boulevard. Response PH 1-12 — Ruby Cardenas Three of the six stated purposes for the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project are to improve transit connectivity, increase transit options, and improve transit accessibility. The initial goal of OCTA's Go Local Program was to develop projects that would extend the reach of Metrolink. The Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove interpreted this to mean not only providing an additional transit connection to a Metrolink station but to also connect with OCTA's robust bus transit system in Santa Ana. By providing direct connections with all but two of the 16 OCTA bus routes that currently serve the Study Area, the SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project enhances Study Area mobility and connectivity with the region and increases travel convenience for those who use public transportation within the Study Area. The request for fare compatibility between systems was forwarded to the decision makers for consideration. The comment is not directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA /DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Response PH1 -13 — Ruby Cardenas Chapter 2.0 of the EA /DEIR describes the selection and evaluation of alternatives for the project. The alternatives analysis process consisted of four major steps: (1) Preliminary Definition of Alternatives, which included creating a range of conceptual alternatives that could potentially satisfy the Purpose and Need and meet the goals and objectives for the project; (2A) Initial Screening (Route Options) to eliminate route options with fatal flaws and those that do not satisfy the Purpose and Need and meet the goals and objectives of the project; (213) Initial Screening (Technology Options) to eliminate technology options with fatal flaws and those that do not satisfy the Purpose and Need and meet the goals and objectives of the project and Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g ej 198 January 2015 75A -256 determine the reduced set of alternatives to be carried forward for detailed analysis; and (3) Detailed Evaluation and Environmental Impact Analysis of the reduced set of alternatives and selection of the Locally Preferred Alternative. Early alignment options considered Civic Center Drive as an alternative to Santa Ana Boulevard. Civic Center Drive West provides more direct access to some key activity locations in the Civic Center areas, including the Orange County Courthouse, the Santa Ana Public Library, and Santa Ana Stadium. It was determined that the existing land uses along Civic Center Drive West were less dense and less transit supportive than those along Santa Ana Boulevard or 4th Street. However, the alignment was included in Streetcar Alternative 2 based on comments received from the project's Stakeholder Working Group. The request to outreach to the Environmental and Transportation Advisory Committee (ETAC) has been an on -going effort. A number of presentations on the streetcar had been made up to the point of when this comment during the environmental public review was received. Early presentations on the streetcar covered preliminary alternative routes and optional transportation modes. Subsequent presentations included the remaining three build alternatives and the No Build Alternative. The City is committed to continued outreach with ETAC related to the project's environmental analysis. The City acknowledges the commenter's preference for a Civic Center alignment. See Response 8 -2 for related to the alternatives analysis. In addition, as discussed on page ES -15 of the EA/DEIR, the Streetcar Alternative 1 route was identified as the route having the highest daily ridership after a comprehensive alternatives analysis. Response PH1 -14 —Sean Pulich Accommodations will be made to ensure continuous operation of the streetcar during City- approved special events on 4th Street. The manner of operation has not been determined at this stage of the planning process, and will require coordination between the City, OCTA, and Downtown businesses. Regardless of the operational change during special events, advanced notice and appropriate signage would be provided to guide streetcar patrons to the replacement service locations during such events. Response PH1 -15 — Ruby Cardenas See Response PH1 -2(1) related to construction impacts. As discussed on page 3 -197 of the EA/DEIR, the duration of concentrated construction activities would be no more than six months at one location along the alignment, including 4`h Street. A comprehensive community outreach program would be developed prior to the start of construction activities. For business owners and commercial property owners, the disruption of construction activities would involve multiple construction crews operating along the corridor simultaneously. As stated on page 3 -202 of the EA/DEIR, access to businesses would be maintained during operating hours. In addition, the second sentence in the second to last paragraph on page 3 -202 of the EA/DEIR has been revised to state that signage would be posted to alert customers that businesses are open during construction and wayfinding to businesses whose access is disrupted. Signs would also be posted alerting nearby businesses of temporary lane reductions, weekend or nighttime closures, and /or detours. Construction would be completed in coordination with Downtown stakeholders and the business community in order to minimize potential impacts from construction, such as coordinating nighttime and weekend work.

Bin throughout those 19 Garden Grove. j 19 seeping meetings, community listening sessions, we also 19 In addition to that we also sent out a public 20 reached out to a lot of the neighborhoods in the area, all le articles in We've had multi press release. p 20 notice and a p 1 21 the stakeholders that we could find, we talked and tried to 21 the newspaper, in The Register, l think Voice of OC .von 22 get input from everybody to provide input on the project, 22 carried it and so -- and we continue to reach out So if 23 there is anyone who hasn't heard it, it's been on social i 23 Now as we're releasing the environmental ! 24 media as well and we're continuing to get that message out. 24 document, we looked at everybody within 500 feet of the j ! 1 25 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Thank you i 25 alignments that are proposed. That includes property I j Page 4 j Page 3 75A-?60 I Having said that, five years from now hopefully Thank you. 2 some of us will see the train go by and they'll go "Wow, I 2 Next slide. 3 didn't know they were going to do a train." So I wanted 3 We have the environmental assessment, and I'm 4 you to know that will still happen even though we tried � 4 going to put the books over here with this our g g p young good 5 everything possible to get the word out. 5 looking gentleman and if you want to thumb through it you 6 So we'll go ahead and get started. I think that 6 can. if not, you can pass it around. But, again, I want 7 I'll talk while the screen is going on and I don't want you 7 you to feel how much work was done on this project in terms 8 to look at me, look at the screen, because otherwise if I 8 of the assessment, the environmental review is very, very 9 stand in front of it it will be very hard for you to see 9 substantial, millions of dollars in fire making so we worked 10 it. So we'll go ahead and start. !i 10 really hard to cover all the different options and the I1 We want to welcome everybody to the meeting. 11 environmental impact. If you wart to read the report 12 And, of course, the purpose today is to give you 12 there's lots of ways to do it. You can go to Public Works 13 information abort the street car project, tell you that 13 with the City of Santa Ana, you can go to the city clerk's 14 Chen are other meetings and where the locations am for l4 office, you can go to the public library, you can go to 15 the environmental assessment, and a draft Environmental 15 Rostra Party you can go to the train station here in Santa 16 Impact Report and then how to submit comments, well talk 16 Ana, you can go to Garden Grove and get a copy there or you 17 Co you about how to do [hat. 17 can go to Orange County Transportation Authority, they have is We really want your input, that's why these 18 a copy there, or you can from the luxury of your home or 19 meetings are so important. We've been at this for several 19 Starbncks or anywhere else you can get it online, 20 years mid I do -- do we have a copy of the report? 20 santaanatransitvision.com, the full report is there. 21 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Yes, we do. 21 We, as I mentioned earlier, have been working 22 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Can you bring it over to me? 22 hard on this for many years. In 2006 the Board approved 23 And we had a meeting on Saturday, today of course 23 Measure M, was a local sales tax for transportation, and of 24 we're having a meeting this morning and then we have 24 course that's a partnership between Orange County Transit 25 another one on Thursday, Thursday night. 25 Authority mid local cities within Orange County and the 5 _ Page 6 -Page 1 goal was to foster transit connectivity and extend the 2 reach of Metrolink and to took at those projects that were I feasibility to define the transit vision for Santa Ana and 3 best suited for flooding. There were 35 projects submitted, 2 Garden Grove and to move into the second step. And so in 4 31 of them involved buses and shuttles, four of them 3 earnest the alternative analysis and environmental review 4 started in the fall of 2009 with meetings like this, 5 involved rail, the two that were selected were the Anaheim 5 getting people's input, and where do you want the route, 6 project and the Santa Ana-Garden Grove project. I 6 where most people need transit, And based on all of that 7 When I went over to OCTA to meet with the board 7 the alternatives were identified for further study in the 8 there and the staff, I looked at the vision and will tell 8 fall of 2012 after three years of analysis. 9 you that every single part of the vision has been achieved 9 This is the study area. I wanted to make sure 10 with the exception of one major area and that's light rail 10 everybody had the boundaries; 17th Street/Westminster on 11 or street car. So this is the final step in achieving the 11 the north, First Street on the south, Grand Avenue on the 12 vision for OCTA which is to include the street car or light 12 east and Harbor Boulevard on the west, about 4.1 miles 13 rail. 13 total for the study area. 14 How many people here take the bus? All right. I 14 We did look at alternatives; namely the bus, bus 15 took the bus for nine years when I was starting my career. 15 rapid transit and of course the street car and there's 16 And the reason I took the bus is because I couldn't afford 16 pictures of each or those types of alternatives listed 17 a car, real simple. And then one day I got a car and never 17 there. And we looked at several alternatives. The first 18 took the bus again. But later on in my career when the 18 alternative has some benefits. We believe it serves the 19 train was available, I had a car but I took the train. So 19 greatest number of transit dependent households. It has 20 I always tell people when they ask me wiry did I take the 20 the highest daily ridership, it has the lowest operations !. 21 train or the bus, I took the bus because I had to, I took 21 and maintenance cost and we believe that the land use best 22 the train because I wanted to and there's a big difference. 22 supports this type of transit. 23 And I really believe that a train or a light rail system 23 There are some challenges in that it could impact 24 has many major, major benefits for people. 124 some on -street parking. Romember, though, when you have 25 parking, that's because people are coming there with cars. 25 The first part of the study was to look at the Page 8 Page 7 75A-261 I If you have transit, they're going to be coming there by i 1 accessible. I speak from personal experieuce. When you're 2 train so hopefully there's more than beneficial offset 2 waiting for a bus, it seems like an eternity. Has anyone 3 based on those needs. 3 ever done it, "Where's the bus? Is it coming ?" When 4 Street car alternative two, you can see the route 4 you're waiting for a train, it's right on schedule. I 5 there. It provides better coverage of the Civic Center 5 could see it from my bedroom, I could text it and it said 6 destination, so you can see it goes up there on Civic 6 "The train will be here in four minutes." I go down the 7 Center Drive. But there are some challenges with the 7 stairs, go across the track, wait there and sure enough 8 route. It's a little bit longer, longer route means i 8 there's the train with the lights coming. So reliable and 9 greater cost. I asked them to be specific. It's about 9 accessible, very friendly environmentally. It's got the 10 seven percent greater cost. And also there's more 10 electricity there, it fosters walkability, it's a catalyst 11 rgbt -of -way impacts with that route. 1 I for economic development and its very compatible with the 12 And, of course, the bus is also au option that 12 character and scale of a high density city like Santa Ana 13 was evaluated. Initially it does have a lower capital 13 mid Garden Grove. 14 cost, it does not require any right -of -way requirements and 14 This is one of the charts that I developed when I 15 it has no adverse effect on the environment because of the 15 got here. I was making my initial presentation to the 16 existing bus transit already. Some of the challenges is 16 Board of Directors for OCTA and i asked the staff to rank 17 its the lowest daily ridership, less passenger currying 17 the cities by density, the large cities, and to take a look 18 capacity, it's less efficient, it's not as convenient and 18 at the ones that had a rail transit system or a street car, 19 it provides very little economic development and benefit. 19 and the ones who didn't. And what I found out was there's 20 Everybody will give you economic analysis but my 20 two cities in America of the top 15 that don't have a light 21 experience has been that for every dollar in transit !! 21 rail system or a street car and they're both in Orange 22 investment you get about five dollars back in economic !i 22 County. We got a little work to do here. And Santa Ana in j 23 benefit. So some are higher, some are a little bit lower, 23 particular with almost 12,000 people per square mile is a 24 but that's the general rule of thumb. 24 poster child for this type of transit. And we're right 25 So by The street car, it's very reliable, 25 between Boston and Chicago and you can see all the cities L Page 9 Page 10 I- 1 have this type of system with the exception of Santa Ana. i 2 What about the cost? Well, over the long term 1 fare box, any user or advertising fees associated with the 3 the cost of over 25 years has a street car actually being a 2 Hain and oFcoerao the City and developer contributions. 3 We are waiting for OCTA to do their plan. It was approved j 4 little bit less expensive than the bus in terms of the j 4 by the 13oatU and they will be coming back in the next month 5 TSM /best bus alternative and depending on the street car 5 or so with a plan bath financial and implementation. 6 option, it's very, very comparative in terms of cost. And i ! 6 We want to look at the purpose of the 7 this is based on the useful life of 12 years for a bus and � 7 environmental analysis is to look at potential effects and 8 a street car, of course, is a lot longer, 25 years, and you � R impacts in the following key areas; die effect on the 9 look at all the different costs for O and M and you can see 9 community, environmental justice, visual quality, cultural 10 the numbers there. 10 resources, what's the impact on traffic, parking, the noise j 11 363 million for the bus; street car one, 361; and e 11 and vibration, air quality and of course the construction 1 12 street car two, 410 million. 12 that will take place. 13 We want to be an outstanding partner with OCTA 13 We also want to make sure everybody knows that we I 14 and when they're doing a financial modeling and 14 will comply, of course, with the National Environmental 15 implementation plat they need to know where the money's 15 Policy Act and the Califomia Environmental Quality Act 16 going to come from, so I recommended to the City Council, 16 requirements. 17 the mayor, that we commit to a ten percent cost share, it's 17 hr choosing a route after these years of analysis 1 1.8 about five or six hundred thousand dollars a year once the 18 and looking at the alternatives, these were some of the 1 j 19 train is operational, and that can be used for the i 19 considerations; the number of people served especially f 20 analysis. And I think it's really important Co have them 20 those that am transit dependent, we wanted to look at ways j 21 in the game to be a time partner and so we're able to do 21 to maximize the benefits to the community and minimize any 22 that. t 22 impacts that are negative. We want to make it easy to use 23 So when you took at all the different things in 23 and make sure that the ridership is thaw when the system J 24 addition to the City commitment, we have local Measure M4 24 is in place, want to minimize cost, we want input from the 25 funding, federal funding is a possibility, state funds, the j 25 community and of course we want to make sum that Santa Ana page 12 Page 11 - -- — --� 75A 262 ]development, the preliminary engineering or right -of -way 1 benefits economically so that we have the quality of life 2 that we're striving for to make sure that this high density 2 and the final design. There will be a funding agreement, i j 3 city has opportunities to move people through the city. 3 construction will start and then after construction is j 4 We du have more work to do, We will - -after 4 completed there will be some testing and operations will 5 getting your input, this is a 45 -day review period, we will 5 begin. 6 recommend a local preferred alternative to the City 6 So how to submit comments? We will take your 7 Council. They will review that and make a decision, then 7 comments today. It's comments, it's input. IC's not a Q 8 we will go back to the Orange County Transit Authority 8 and A. We want to make sure that we capture your comments 9 Board of Directors in October so they acknowledge the 9 and then that will be part of the official report and that 10 progress that Santa Ana - Garden Grove has made and that they 10 those comments will be published along with the responses. 11 are aware that we completed the local program clap two. j 11 You can mail theoretics. If you wanted to take time and 12 Than in October of will ask the City l2 review it, you can e-mail it to us, you can fax it to us, iron en 13 Council to certify the Environmental Impact Report after we 13 you can do it online, but whatever we do we need comments 14 review and take all the comments in. And then we'll 14 by July 7th, 5:00 p.m. 15 transmit that to the Federal Transit Administration and our 15 Thank you so much. And we have court reporters 16 goal, of course, would be a finding of no significant 16 here and we have cards, you want a -- anybody want a card? 17 impact. 17 Tanya has cards. 18 So we would like to receive your comments today. 18 MR. KATZ: Comment cards? 19 And then, again, we'll certify the environmental document. 19 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Comment cards. 20 I mentioned earlier, I want to re- emphasize, that the 20 MR. KATZ: Yes. 21 Orange County Transit Authority is reviewing and preparing 21 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Right over here. 22 an implementation plan and a funding plan option they'll 22 And with that we do have court recorders and we 23 present to their board. Mayor Pulido is a member of that 23 have translation services. 24 board and I've been going to all their meetings, so we're 24 Does anybody want to make a public comment so 25 representing there. And then go initiate the project ( 25 that they can be recorded? We'll start on this side and Page 13 Page 14 j 1 walk around the room. --1 2 MR. KATZ: I'm Peter Katz, a longtime, 4 5 -year I street car, he could read the Wall Street Journal on his 3 resident of the oily and this is very exciting. Public 2 way to work. Jurors can use this to go to the courthouse 4 transit is an opportunity for this city to increase its 3 without having to take out their cars. And looking for 5 economic development and create jobs locally. And if you 4 parking spaces in those garages are a nightmare so 5 especially downtown. You wouldn't have to walk as far from 6 say for percentage of the jobs for local employment, this i 6 the garage if you're on jury duty or you need to make a 7 is a win -win situation and it will move people around this 7 court appearance or you're going to go to the tax 8 city from the west to the east. You'll connect Garden 8 assessor's office, So for me this is a win -win situation. 9 Grove to downtown Santa Ana, 9 1 think for seniors, for students to go to 10 And this month Orange Coast Magazine has rated 10 college, this passes right by Santa Ana College. So I mean 11 downtown Santa Ana as the number one downtown in all of 11 it's going to cut down on the transit and the traffic,, 12 Orange County even without this street cur. So this street 12 nightmare that we have in this city. 13 oar will increase the capacity in this city. 13 And for the city of Garden Grove to connect with 14 And I'm really excited, I've traveled around the 14 Santa Ana, of some point it just connects up to the one in 15 world and I've ridden on street oars in a lot of cities and 15 Anaheim, it will move the tourist district further south. 16 they're successful everywhere they've been built. As a c"2-1 16 Like Las Vegas Boulevard in Las Vegas, it will stretch out 17 matter of foot USA Today last month had ,in article on all 17 to the highway. I envision Harbor Boulevard being a 18 the new street cars that are going in in Atlanta and ether � 18 tourist mecca center, bringing all the tourists here 19 cities that are taking advantage of the density of the 19 stretching from Anaheim to Costa Mesa. 20 population because our freeways -- there's no room to build 20 So I think this is a win -win situation for the 21 anymore freeways. 21 cities, it's going to bring bond revenue, and I think if 22 And the thing about street oars, it doesn't have 22 it's built right and the stops are designed right and the 23 the socioeconomic stigma of being for the poor class, for 23 fare is reasonable, I think people will benefit 24 the lower class or for the minority. A lawyer will ride a 24 tremendously from this project, So I'm all for it. 25 street car, he will not ride a bus. The CEO will ride a 25 Anyone else? Page 16 Page 15 5A 26 ' I CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Anyone else out here? Anybody I UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: I have a question 2 on this side? 2 Where's the parking lot going to be? 3 Thank you. All right Here we go. 3 MS. WOO: Its going to be on Rain and Fifth Street, I 4 MS. WOO: Yes. I'm Ruby Woo with the Artesia Pilar 4 that area, it looks like you could stop and park there. I 5 Neighborhood Association. I'm also in favor of it but I'm 5 was just looking at it really fast so I just wanted some 6 also concerned about the landscaping because its going to 6 information on that 7 go through my neighborhood, Santa Ana Boulevard.,' 7 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Okay. We're here to get input 8 One of the things that I'm upset about right now 8 and comments, not Q and A, but I will be here afterwards 9 on Bristol is the bus shelters. I want better looking bus 9 for anybody that has questions. This can't be part of the 10 shelters and people are kind of hiding under the bushes and i 10 official record. I1 stuff because of the shade so I wish you would consider 11 Who wants to give input or comments? 12 that, the shelter area being a little bit better looking. 12 Yes, sir. 13 Also I notice there's oin be ark and stop g g to a P P 13 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: I have a comment. 14 area in Artesia Pilar and I would like to invite you to a 14 How long will it take from the start to finish of PH22 15 . neighborhood meeting July 16 to explain that park and ride 15 the project? PH22 16 shelter. 16 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: So I'm going to refer back to 17 And so I'm really concerned how it looks in the 17 the comment I made earlier because it's part of our r 18 community, landscaping, also what they're going to be doing ! 18 presentation so I'll ro- emphasize it. 19 about some businesses because of -- the businesses on Santa 19 We are currently working with the OCTA, they are i 20 Ana Boulevard arc not — the landscaping in that street 20 the lead agency and they are developing a financing plan 21 area, how that's going to be paved and look better. I know 21 and a implementation plan. And as soon as that's done and ! 22 i @s going to look better but I want it to really look 22 the Board approves it, we'll have a better idea of how long 23 good. 23 it will take and how it's going to be financed. But right 24 Thank you. 24 now we don't have any real concrete estimates. 25 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Thank you. 25 Anybody else? Page 17 ! Page 18 I UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: What's the earliest it would I UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: We have a question over there. 2 Start? 3 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: If you wrote its a check today ! 2 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Onemore. P 3 1 want everybody to hear. If you could stand up 4 personally, we could probably have it done in about four ^p,3 co t 4 too. 5 years, So it all depends on the plan. I'm not being 5 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Grant. They can hear well 6 facetious. 6 over the speakers. 7 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: So if funding came in -- from 7 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: By the way, how come you're not 8 the point funding comes in, it could be four years? 8 wearing n He? 'i. 9 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: Yes. 9 UNIDENTIFIED SPEAKER: Yes, I'm very casual today. 10 Usually it takes about 18 months for design, two to Thank you. j 11 years to construct, there's sonic testing, I've done two or 11 Flow are you going to handle or how is it going to 12 three of them, some of them take ten years, ten years goes 12 be handled the businesses that ore going to be in the -- PH24 13 by fast, Some of them take five or six years, But, again, 13 that are whom the street car is going to go? Four years, 14 to re- emphasize the reason I'm answering yew question is 14 it's a long time for businesses to survive that process. 15 because I presented it earlier. 15 How are you going to handle those people that are going to 16 Kelly, what's the schedule for the work that's ( 16 be affected economically? 17 being done with implementation and financing, when is that ! 17 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: That's a good question. Again, 18 due back from the Board? 1 S not related to this specifically, n n relates to the p y, g am !; 19 KELLY: We have an item that's tentatively scheduled 19 implementation plan. 20 to go to the Board in August. 20 In my prior experience we have people assigned to 21 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: When? 21 different segments of their rout. working very close with 22 KELLY: In August. 22 the businesses cad residents and then minimize the impart 23 CITY MANAGER CAVAZOS: August, okay. So we'll have a 23 on your business or livelihood and so that's their goal 24 that they would have. 24 better idea in August. 25 I don't want to oversimplify it but in this !� 25 All right. Page 20 Page 19 - -- 264 75A I particular case this technology is in the right -of -way in 2 the vast majority of cases. So it looks different from a 3 situation where youh'e actually taking property from both 4 sides of the road, the impact it will have there and it 5 will be significant in that case. 6 So I'd like to talk to you afterwards. 7 So, people, we want comments not questions, 8 comments.

consideration. The comment is not directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA /DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Response PH2 -2 — Ruby Woo Detailed design specifications for the shelters, the park- and -ride lot, and landscaping have not been developed at this stage of the planning process. Streetcar stations were discussed on page 2 -13 of the EA /DEIR. The stations for the build alternatives will be located curbside adjacent to the platforms within the public right -of -way. They will consist of a shelter constructed substantially of transparent materials. In addition to seating, the stations will provide traveler information such as estimates of next train arrival time. The design concerns have been forwarded to the decision makers for consideration. The project would adhere to local established building and landscaping standards to ensure that the project is visually consistent with the existing surroundings. Response PH2 -3 — Unknown Speaker As stated on page 3 -197 of the EA /DEIR, the construction period is anticipated to be approximately 30 months, with major activities to be completed within the first 24 -month period. Response PH2 -4 — Unknown Speaker As stated on page 3 -197 of the EA /DEIR, the construction period is anticipated to be approximately 30 months, with major activities to be completed within the first 24 -month period. The duration of concentrated construction activities would be no more than six months at any given location along the alignment. As stated on page 3 -202 of the EA /DEIR, access to businesses would be maintained during operating hours. In addition, the second sentence in the second to last paragraph on page 3- 202 of the EA /DEIR has been revised to state that signage would be posted to alert customers that businesses are open during construction and wayfinding to businesses whose access is disrupted. Signs would also be posted alerting nearby businesses of temporary lane reductions, weekend or nighttime closures, and /or detours. As stated on pages 3 -218 and 3 -219 of the EA /DEIR include a Traffic Management Plan and a Noise and Vibration Control Plan to reduce construction effects. Upon completion of project construction, the build alternatives would allow improved access to Downtown Santa Ana and other high- intensity areas of employment, commercial development, and recreational opportunities. Improved transportation service would enhance visibility and access to existing economic activity centers, including those businesses that would be temporarily affected by project construction and areas targeted for redevelopment.

Nmimwl Deposited & Li fti man Seven. 866 299 -5127 Pnge 8 Public Hearing Meeting No. 3 Response PH3 -1 — Unknown Speaker Under Streetcar Alternative 2 and IOS -2, the Streetcar would travel eastbound along 5th Street from Ross Street to Minter Street. The cross sections and alignment along 5`h Street are shown in Appendix 0 beginning on page 60 (drawing number TR -19 through TR -22) of the EA /DEIR. The streetcar would operate in the right most lane until east of Bush Street where a dedicated right turn lane would generally occur before intersections until Minter Street. No changes would occur to the existing left one or two lanes along 51h Street. Along this segment, the streetcar would operate in mixed traffic. This could include vehicles and /or bicycles, as there is no existing bike lane and travel speeds would be substantially lower. Businesses along 51h Street may be temporarily disrupted during construction. See Response PH1 -2(1) related to effects to businesses during construction. Access to existing businesses would be maintained and accessibility to businesses along 5 "' would be increased with the addition of three stations under Alternative 2 or IOS -2. Response PH3 -2 — Unknown Speaker See Responses 8 -5(5) and PH1 -7 related to completion of an EJ analysis and an equity analysis. The loss of property value is not an environmental consideration under CEQA unless it leads to the physical deterioration of buildings. Regarding equity in properties, there is no supporting evidence or documentation to establish, as fact that the implementation of a streetcar system causes property values to decrease to the extent that blight or physical degradation of buildings would occur. Speculation about fluctuations in property values as a result of transit improvements is not within the scope of the EA /DEIR. Response PH3 -3 — Wan Cha A cultural resources report was prepared for the project in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation act and is included as Appendix K of the EA /DEIR. This report analyzed the potential for the proposed project to adversely affect historic, archaeological or paleontological resources. The Section 106 determination found that no adverse effects to historic, archaeological or paleontological resources would occur from the proposed project. Proposed construction activities generally would require conventional earthwork equipment (e.g., cranes, tractors, and trucks). Drill rigs and similar vibration - generating equipment may also be used for various construction activities. In addition, as discussed on page 3 -208 of the EA /DEIR, pile- driving activities would be limited to the elevated crossing over Westminster Avenue and where the alignment crosses the Santa Ana River channel. The distances between the construction equipment and properties would typically be sufficient to avoid effects to the properties, including historic buildings, as a result of vibration or other activity that could affect these buildings' structural integrity. However, six historic structures have been identified as potential locations of vibration impacts. Santa Ana Garden Grove fixed Guideway Project REMEIR P a g el 222 January 2015 75A -280 As discussed on page 3 -219 of the EA /DEIR, the proposed project includes a Noise and Vibration Control Plan to reduce the effects of construction vibration to historic structures. Relevant components of the Plan include: • Where pile- driving operations are required, vibratory pile driving or pre - drilled pile insertion techniques shall be used whenever possible, rather than impact pile driving; • Pile driving activity shall be prohibited during nighttime hours; • Residences located within 560 feet of pile driving activity shall be sent advanced notice of the construction schedule; and • The construction contractor shall manage construction phasing (scheduling demolition, earthmoving, and ground- impacting operations so as not to occur in the same time period), use low- impact construction technologies, and shall avoid the use of vibrating equipment where possible to avoid construction vibration impacts. Specifically, contractors shall use smaller and lower impact construction technologies where residential and historic structures are located within 26 feet of the construction site. Response PH3 -4 — Wan Cha The alternatives identified for evaluation in the EA /DEIR were based on public comments, as well as technical analyses, as detailed in the Alternative Analysis Report (under separate cover and available by request or on the City's website at http : / /santaanatransitvision.com). The alternatives analysis process included a comprehensive review of potential technology and alignment options. A wide range of public transit options were defined and investigated as candidate technologies. The initial alignment options were based on the need to establish an east -west transit corridor in the Study Area, and to improve the Study Area's regional transit connectivity by providing direct connections to existing and planned transit services (Metrolink and OCTA fixed route and Bus Rapid Transit services) at SARTC and at the northeast corner of Harbor Boulevard and Westminster Avenue in the City of Garden Grove. As discussed in the EA /DEIR, Streetcar Alternative 1, traveling along 4" Street, was identified as the route having the highest daily ridership after a comprehensive alternatives analysis. Response PH3 -5 — Adolpho Lopez The EA /DEIR focused on assessing a streetcar system. The Study Area is generally bounded by Harbor Boulevard to the west, 17" Street to the north, Grand Avenue to the east, and 1" Street to the south. The goals and objectives of the project, described in Table 1 -1 on page 1 -14 of the EA /DEIR, are focused on transportation improvements. The development of a promenade in the Downtown area is outside the scope of this project. Regarding encouraging pedestrians to visit Downtown and 4 I Street, and as stated on page ES -15 of the EA /DEIR, it is estimated that Streetcar Alternative 1 would attract between 3,770 and 8,400 riders per day in horizon year 2035. Six stations would be located in the Downtown commercial area of the City. These stations would provide easy access for streetcar riders to visit Downtown businesses. Santa Ana-Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR January 2015 75A -281 Page1223 Response PH3 -6 — Saul O'Campo Regarding safety, concrete barriers with fencing would be placed around the perimeter of construction areas to restrict access and eliminate the threat to safety and security of anyone not directly involved in construction activity. Construction activity would occur in front of Spurgeon Intermediate School, Romero Cruz Elementary School, George Washington Carver Elementary School, and James Garfield Elementary School. Construction zones near schools require additional considerations to ensure the safety of students and staff and promote vehicle awareness. The City of Santa Ana would coordinate with the Santa Ana Unified School District and Santa Ana Police Department to develop and implement a construction traffic safety plan, as identified in Mitigation Measure SAF1 on page 3 -196 of the EA /DEIR, at schools adjacent to the alignment. Precautionary safety features would, as a minimum, include signs, barriers, and crossing and traffic signals to create a safe environment for parents and students during pick -up /drop -off times, as well as the education plan to increase the construction and safety awareness for students and parents. The construction zone would typically be limited between two- and four -block segments. North - south traffic could experience detours or inconveniences from lane reductions, nighttime or weekend closures, and detours. In addition, daytime construction activity in major intersections would occur in increments to avoid complete intersection closure. Accordingly, impacts to direct routes to and from institutional uses would be temporary and occur for a relatively short period. Therefore, the City would not provide transportation for students around the construction zone. Response PH3 -7 — Raul Yanez See Response PH3 -1 related to construction vibration and historic properties. PH1 -2(1) related to a general discussion of construction activities. Response P113 -8 — Madeleine Spencer See Response PH1 -1 related to community outreach and distribution of notices. Response PH3 -9 — Unknown Speaker Section 3.10 in Table 3.10 -6 on page 3 -127 of the EA /DEIR includes a detailed parking analysis which includes a discussion of parking loss outside the Downtown area. The alignment outside the Downtown area, west of Flower Street to Raitt Street would be the same for all of the build alternatives. No parking loss would occur west of Raitt Street or to the east of the Downtown area. As shown in the following table, 53 percent of street parking would be removed along Santa Ana Boulevard between Raitt and Flower Streets. Existing Spaces Scenario and Segment Spaces Lost Remaining Streetcar Alternatives 1, 2 and IOS -1, and IOS -2 Santa Ana Boulevard between Raitt and Flower Streets 1 143 I 73 I 70 Source: City of Santa Ana, Santa Ana and Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project Traffic Impact Assessment Report, February 2012. Santa Ana Garden Grave Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 224 January 2015 75A -282 The loss of parking on Santa Ana Boulevard between Raitt and Flower Streets would affect residential land uses. The City of Santa Ana requires every residential property along this segment of Santa Ana Boulevard to have on -site parking capacity consistent with City zoning and occupancy entitlements. There is adequate although potentially less convenient parking to accommodate residential parking needs along this segment of Santa Ana Boulevard. Therefore, the build alternatives would not result in adverse effects related to residential land uses and the loss of on- street parking spaces. Response PH3 -10 — Unknown Speaker As stated on page ES -4 of the EA /DEIR, Santa Ana and Garden Grove's overall vision for the Study Area includes a transit system that integrates seamlessly with the community, provides connections to regional Metrolink and Amtrak commuter rail services at the SARTC, and is compatible with the established urban character. The SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project is a transit improvement project being considered by the Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove in cooperation with OCTA and FTA to improve mobility and provide other community enhancements. The project's objectives are derived from the need for transportation improvements in the Study Area, which address a variety of community issues. The identification of these needs and corresponding goals and objectives are stated in Table 1 -1 on page 1 -14 of the EA /DEIR. The alternatives considered as part of the project are based on the need to establish an east -west transit corridor in the Study Area, and to improve the Study Area's regional transit connectivity by providing direct connections to existing and planned transit services ( Metrolink and OCTA fixed route and BRT services) at SARTC and at the northeast corner of Harbor Boulevard and Westminster Avenue in the City of Garden Grove. One of the factors in the development of the alternative alignments was ridership and what routes would serve areas with the highest demand. As discussed on page ES -15 of the EA /DEIR, the Streetcar Alternative 1 route was identified as the route having the highest daily ridership after a comprehensive alternatives analysis. It is estimated that the Locally Preferred Alternative would attract between 3,770 and 8,400 riders per day in the 2035 horizon year. At the low end, this represents approximately 22 percent more riders than the TSM Alternative (3,085); at the high end, it represents approximately 172 percent more riders than with the TSM Alternative. Streetcar Alternative 2 would attract between 3,020 and 6,425 riders. At the low end, this would be approximately equivalent to the TSM Alternative; at the high end, it represents approximately 108 percent more riders than with the TSM Alternative. IOS -1 would attract between 2,012 and 4,490 riders, and IOS -2 would attract between 1,540 and 3,280 riders which is approximately 47 percent fewer riders than the full alignment alternatives. Response PH3 -11 — Isabella Lopez In accordance with CEQA regulations, the Notice of Availability of the EA /DEIR for public review was filed and posted at the Orange County Clerk- Recorder's Office in compliance with Sections 21080.4 and 21092 of the California Public Resources Code; advertised in the local newspaper; flyers were distributed at every community center in the City of Santa Ana; outreach was also conducted via social media; and a press release was covered by at least three different news organizations. Although not required under CEQA or NEPA regulations, available data from Santa Ana Garden Grave Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g e1225 January 2015 75A -283 County Assessor and City property records were used to establish a list of property owners and tenants within 500 feet of the alignment. There were 3,796 postcards delivered to property owners, business owners, tenants, and residents related to EA /DEIR availability for public review. Hard copies of the notifications and document were also made available at different locations (Santa Ana City Hall Public Works Counter, Santa Ana City Hall City Cleric's Office, Santa Ana Public Library, Salgado Center, Rosita Park, Santa Ana Train Station, Garden Grove City Hall, and OCTA), as well as online on the City of Santa Ana website. Response PH3 -12 — Unknown Speaker Section 2.9 on page 2 -29 of the EA/DEIR describes the public outreach for the development of alternatives, scoping, and circulation of the EA /DEIR. Section 3.5 on page 3 -61 of the EA/DEIR discusses additional public outreach in relation to targeting populations of EJ concern. The decision was based on a combination of environmental impacts, community input, cost, ridership, and economic development considerations brought to light through the EA /DEIR, Alternative Analysis, and public review process. Response PH3 -13 — Unknown Speaker See Responses 8 -6(5) and PI-11-7 related to an EJ analysis and an equity analysis. The extensive public outreach as described in Response PI-11-1 will continue as the project moves forward. Future public outreach, would include, but not be limited to, informing the community aware of construction activities, and providing education programs to familiarize local residents and business owners with the new streetcar system. Response PH3 -14 — Unknown Speaker See Response PH1 -2(4) related to safety. Response PH3 -15 — Unknown Speaker The streetcar fares have not been determined at this time. A financing plan will be developed by OCTA prior to revenue operation of the Locally Preferred Alternative. Response PH3 -16 — Unknown Speaker Information regarding possible funding sources have been identified but not approved. The source of funding is not required for consideration in the environmental review process in accordance with CEQA and NEPA regulations. The comment is not directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA /DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Response PH3 -17 — Unknown Speaker Streetcar stations will include shelters, benches, and trash receptacles. Detailed design information is not available at this stage in the planning process. Response PH3 -18 — Unknown Speaker As stated on page ES -4 of the EA /DEIR, Santa Ana and Garden Grove's overall vision for the Study Area includes a transit system that integrates seamlessly with the community, provides Santa Ana Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g el 226 January 2015 75A -284 connections to regional Metrolink and Amtrak commuter rail services at the SARTC, and is compatible with the established urban character. The SA -GG Fixed Guideway Project is a transit improvement project being considered by the Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove in cooperation with OCTA and FTA to improve mobility and provide other community enhancements. The project's objectives are derived from the need for transportation improvements in the Study Area, which address a variety of community issues. The identification of these needs and corresponding goals and objectives are stated in Table 1 -1 on page 1 -14 of the EA /DEIR. In addition, and as stated on page ES -5 of the EA/DEIR, the City of Santa Ana would benefit from increased connectivity to the regional transportation network. The eastern terminus of the alignment is the SARTC, which is the busiest multi -modal transportation hub in Orange County and will connect the streetcar to Metrolink, Amtrak, and bus lines from the surrounding region. The western terminus is the Harbor Boulevard /Westminster Avenue intersection, where connections to local and intra- county buses operated by OCTA are available. Response PH3 -19 — Unknown Speaker See Response PH3 -17. The specifications related to boarding procedures have not been identified at this time. The proposed streetcar system will comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements to accommodate disabled patrons. Response PH3 -20 — Unknown Speaker Solar power has not been considered as part of the proposed project, although the proposed project does not preclude the future integration of solar power. Response PH3 -21 — Madaleine Spencer The source of funding is not required for consideration in the environmental review process in accordance with CEQA and NEPA regulations. The comment is not directly related to the content or adequacy of the EA/DEIR, and no further response is necessary. Response PH3 -22 — Unknown Speaker Acquisitions requiring displacement would comply with the Uniform Act. Acquisitions related to the build alternatives are shown in Table 3.3 -5 on page 3 -23 of the EA/DEIR. Streetcar Alternative 1 would result in three full acquisitions and six partial acquisitions; Streetcar Alternative 2 would result in six full and ten partial acquisitions; IOS -1 would result in four full and two partial acquisitions; and IOS -2 would result in five full and six partial acquisitions. The amount and type of private property acquisitions were found to result in less- than - significant impacts.

Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g al 233 January 2015 75A -291 Chapter 4.0 Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program PRC Section 21081.6 and Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines require adoption of a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for all projects for which an EIR has been prepared. This requirement was originally mandated by Assembly Bill (AB) 3180, which was enacted on January 1, 1989, to ensure the implementation of all mitigation measures adopted through the CEQA process. Specifically, PRC Section 21081.6 states that "...the agency shall adopt a reporting or monitoring program for the changes made to the project or conditions of project approval, adopted in order to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment ... [and that the program] ... shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation." AB 3180 provided general guidelines for implementing monitoring and reporting programs, which are enumerated in more detail in Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines. However, specific reporting and /or monitoring requirements to be enforced during project implementation shall be defined prior to final approval of the proposed project by the decision - maker. In response to established CEQA requirements, the proposed MMRP shall be submitted to the City of Santa Ana (lead agency) for consideration prior to completion of the environmental review process to enable the decision - makers appropriate response to the proposed project. Although the lead agency may delegate reporting or monitoring responsibilities to other agencies or entities, it ...remains responsible for ensuring that implementation of the mitigation measures occurs in accordance with the program." The MMRP describes the procedures for the implementation of the mitigation measures to be adopted for the proposed project as identified in the EA /DEIR and REA /FEIR. The MMRP will be in place through all phases of the proposed project, including design (pre- construction), construction, and operation (post- construction both prior to and post - occupancy). The City of Santa Ana shall be responsible for administering the MMRP activities or delegating them to staff, other City departments (e.g., Department of Building and Safety and Department of Public Works), consultants, or contractors. The City of Santa Ana will also ensure that monitoring is documented through reports (as required) and that deficiencies are promptly corrected. The designated environmental monitor (e.g., City building inspector, project contractor, or certified professionals depending on the provision specified below) will track and document compliance with mitigation measures, note any problems that may result, and take appropriate action to remedy problems. Each mitigation measure is categorized by environmental topic and corresponding number, with identification of: • The enforcement agency • The monitoring agency • The monitoring phase (i.e., the phase during which the measure should be monitored); • The monitoring frequency • The action indicating compliance with the mitigation measure Santa Ana - Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project REAIFEIR P a g eI23R January 2015 75A -292 All agencies and departments are in the City of Santa Ana, unless otherwise noted. Land Use and Zoning No mitigation measures related to land use and zoning are required. Land Acquisition and Displacement No mitigation measures related to land acquisition and displacement are required. Visual Quality No mitigation measures related to visual quality are required. Cultural Resources CR1 A qualified principal investigator who meets the Secretary of the Interior's professional qualification standards for an archeologist shall be responsible for managing Native American archaeological resources and human remains. The qualified principal investigator shall appoint an archaeological monitor to be present for ground- disturbing activities that could encounter undisturbed soils. If the qualified principal investigator determines that Native American archaeological resources and human remains are likely present, then both an archeological monitor and a Native American monitor identified by the principal investigator shall be present. The Native American monitor shall be a Native American identified by the applicable tribe and /or the Native American Heritage Commission. The timing and duration of the monitoring shall be determined by the principal investigator based on the sensitivity of exposed sediments. Prior to initiation of earth - disturbing activities that could encounter undisturbed soils; the archaeological monitor shall conduct a brief awareness training session for all construction workers and supervisory personnel. The training shall explain the importance of and legal basis for the protection of significant archaeological resources. Each worker shall learn the proper procedures to follow in the event that cultural resources or human remains /burials are uncovered. These procedures include work curtailment or redirection and the immediate contact of the site supervisor and the archaeological monitor. It is recommended that this worker education session include visual images of artifacts that might be found in the project vicinity, and that the session take place on -site immediately prior to the start of ground- disturbing activities. If archaeological resources or human remains are encountered during construction, all work shall cease in the area of potential affect until the find can be addressed. The Orange County Coroner's Office shall be contacted pursuant to procedures set forth in Public Resources Code Section 5097 et seq. and Health and Safety Code in Sections 7050.5, 7051, and 7054 with respect to treatment and removal, Native American involvement, burial treatment, and re- burial, if necessary. A fifty -foot buffer, or more if deemed appropriate by the principal investigator, shall be established and work outside the buffer may resume.

Carvalho CLERK OF THE COUNCIL Maria D. Huizar Via Certified Mail SUBJECT: UPDATED OFFER TO ACQUIRE A PORTION OF THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT: 1501 N. BRISTOL STREET, SANTA ANA, CA APN: 405 - 252 -20 Dear Property Owner: The City of Santa Ana ( "City ") is proceeding with its plans to construct Phase IIIB of the Bristol Street Widening Project between Washington Avenue and Seventeenth Street. The City obtained a preliminary title report that lists McDonald's Corporation, DBA Delaware McDonald's Corporation successor in interest by merger to franchise realty interstate corporation, an Illinois Corporation, as to parcels C and D & McDonald's corporation, a Delaware Corporation, as to parcels A and B, to be the vested owners of the above - mentioned property. The City seeks to acquire a portion of the property located at the above - mentioned address, which consists of the underlying real property of 4,550 square feet and the improvements thereon, as described in Attachment 1. The area to be acquired is referred to herein as the "Property ". Based on McDonald's Corporation's desire to reconfigure and re -build on the remainder of their site, the City rescinds and replaces the City's Offer to acquire the entire property dated October 1, 2013 and makes an offer for a partial take instead which contemplates the relocation of McDonald's onsite. THIS OFFER IS CONTINGENT ON THE PARTIES REACHING AGREEMENT AS TO THE VALUE OF THE PARTIAL TAKE AND CONCURRENT AGREEMENT TO RECONFIGURE AND REBUILD ON SITE. Due to project schedule constraints, the City needs an answer to this concept within 30 days. If McDonalds is agreeable to this concept, the parties will need to meet immediately to finalize the timeline required to reach a final resolution. The City needs to begin construction by March 2015 and therefore time is of the essence in terms of reaching a final agreement. If the City and McDonald's cannot come to an agreement regarding the partial take acquisition, the City reserves the right to acquire the entire site for construction of the street improvement project and a new offer will be made consistent with a full take. 75B -6 Page 2 No final determination has been made as to the ownership of the Property. This offer is contingent upon presentation of conclusive evidence of title. If more than one person has an interest in the Property that the City is seeking to acquire, all parties with such interest must accept this offer. As you know, the City had your Property appraised to determine its fair market value. The appraisal was conducted in accordance with commonly accepted appraisal standards and included consideration of the highest and best use of the land. Based on the appraisal, the City offers to purchase the portion of your Property for $1,132,000. The basis for this offer is explained more thoroughly in the attachments to this letter that are made a part of this offer by reference. This offer is conditional upon the City Council ratifying this offer by a formal action taken at a regular public meeting authorizing the execution of a Purchase and Sale Agreement. If you are not satisfied with the City's offer, you are encouraged to present to us any material you believe to be relevant to the value of the Property, which material will be carefully considered by the City. If, in the City's opinion, the additional information warrants a change in the offer, the City's offer will be adjusted accordingly. The Purchase Price is the full amount established by the appraisal as the fair market value of the Property and the just compensation for such acquisition. A written statement and a summary of the basis for the amount established as the Purchase Price is set forth in the attached Statement of Just Compensation, identified as Attachment 2. The California Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Guidelines provide that each Owner from whom the City purchases real property or an interest therein, or each tenant owning improvements on said Property, be provided with information relating to the acquisition procedures pursuant to the Government Code, Paragraph 7267.2(a).

The building contains 2,510 square feet, has additional basement storage area, and was originally constructed in 1988±. Other appurtenant on -site improvements located within the boundaries of the subject parcel include a trash enclosure, asphalt paving, concrete paving, concrete curbing, concrete block walls, wrought iron fencing, business signage, metal bollards (auto stops), concrete auto stops, marked automobile parking spaces, and irrigated landscaping. The development is situated on a parcel containing 40,501 square feet of land area. Zoning: C -5 (arterial commercial) Topography: Effectively level topography Utilities: In place at site Highest and Best Use: Highest and best use is defined as the reasonably probable and legal use of land, which is legally permissible, physically possible, and financially feasible that results in the highest value. Highest and best use analysis is used in the appraisal process to identify comparable properties and, where applicable, to determine whether the existing improvements should be retained, renovated, or demolished. The results of the highest and best use analysis are: As if Vacant: Commercial use As improved: Existing use Date of Value: January 8, 2014 Public Use for Property: Bristol Street Widening Improvement Project Estate to be Acquired: Permanent (perpetual) roadway easement Legal Description: The legal description of the acquisition area was prepared by Bickel Underwood, Architects. Area to be Acquired: Permanent roadway area: 4,550 square feet Total Just Compensation: $1,132,000 75B -9 SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION The purpose of the appraisal study is to express an estimate of total just compensation applicable to the proposed partial acquisition of the subject parent property. Just compensation is based on a quantitative measure of market value. Market value is defined in The California Code of Civil Procedure, § 1263.320, as: "(A) The fair market value of the property taken is the highest price on the date of valuation that would be agreed to by a seller, being willing to sell but under no particular or urgent necessity for so doing, nor obliged to sell, and a buyer, being ready, willing, and able to buy but under no particular necessity for so doing, each dealing with the other with full knowledge of all the uses and purposes for which the property is reasonably adaptable and available. (B) The fair market value of property taken, for which there is no relevant market is its value on the date of valuation as determined by any method of valuation that is just and equitable." Additionally, Section 1263.330 provides that the fair market value shall not include an increase or decrease in value attributable to the project for which the property is to be acquired. Accordingly, the subject property has been appraised absent any influence of the proposed freeway interchange improvement project. There are three conventional methods (approaches) which can be utilized to estimate value. They are the Sales Comparison Approach, Cost - Summation Approach, and Income Capitalization Approach. The Sales Comparison Approach has been employed herein to estimate the value of the subject underlying land parcel which will be utilized in the valuation of the proposed take area as well as in the "after" condition analysis. The Sales Comparison Approach and Income Capitalization Approach have been applied to the subject parent property for the purpose of estimating the unencumbered fee simple market value as presently improved with the fast -food restaurant facility. Certain elements of the Cost - Summation Approach have been employed herein for the purpose of estimating the contributory value of existing improvements impacted by the partial acquisition. Value of Parent Property before Taldng: Sales Comparison Approach: The Sales Comparison Approach takes into account properties which have sold in the open market. This approach, whether applied to vacant or improved property, is based on the Principle of Substitution which states, "The maximum value of a property tends to be set by the cost of acquiring an equally desirable substitute property, assuming no costly delay is encountered in making the substitution. " Thus, the Sales Comparison Approach attempts to equate the subject property with sale properties by analyzing and weighing the various elements of comparability. 75B -10 SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION (Continued) Value of Parent Property, Before Taking: (Continued) Sales Comparison Approach: (Continued) The Sales Comparison Approach was utilized to estimate the value of the subject land parcel after an investigation and analysis was conducted of recent sales involving reasonably comparable land parcels within the greater subject market area. Land Value: Following is a summary of the sales considered helpful when estimating the value of the subject land, as if vacant and available for a highest and best use development.

The properties range in size from 14,866 to 57,160 square feet of land area. The overall purchase prices range from $700,000 to $2,800,000, reflecting a relatively wide range of value between $28.33 and $52.35 per square foot of land area; the predominant range is between $39.67 and $48.99. Certain of the land sales data considered extended over a time period back to the first quarter of 2013. The time frame permitted the development of a rather comprehensive real estate market profile. The sales employed in this report are set forth in chronological order, and took place between February 2009 and November, 2013. Differing market conditions were considered in the analysis of the individual sale properties. 75B -11 SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION (Continued) Value of Parent Property, Before Taking: (Continued) Sales Comparison Approach: (Continued) Land Value: (Continued) After viewing all of the sale properties, and obtaining certain information pertinent to land value, the appraiser analyzed the various elements of comparability for each sale property (as compared to the subject property) which, among others, include the following: General location Immediate environmental influences Accessibility Public utilities and sanitary sewer Zoning, entitlements, if any Size, shape, and plottage Topographical characteristics Site prominence /exposure A Relative Comparison Analysis (RCA) has been conducted between the individual comparable properties and the subject property. The RCA is a qualitative technique for analyzing comparable sales, and is a valuable tool employed to illustrate whether the characteristics of a comparable property are inferior, superior, or similar to those of the property under appraisement. The Relative Comparison Analysis is similar to paired data analysis. This technique acknowledges the imperfect nature of the subject real estate market. The primary objective is to bracket the subject property between the comparable sales with respect to the similarity, superiority, and inferiority thereof. Superior elements of comparability of an individual sale property would reflect a downward adjustment to the value indication thereof. Conversely, inferior elements suggest an upward adjustment. Additionally, it is important to note that the above elements of comparability were not assigned equal weight in malting the analysis of each property. The general location, immediate environmental influences, development density, vehicular accessibility, site conditions, site prominence /exposure, and land plottage were considered the most important factors in the subject case. All of the sale transactions employed herein were considered helpful in the land valuation analysis of the subject property. The purchase price per square foot of land area has been utilized herein as the primary indication of value inasmuch as it is most commonly utilized by market participants. The properties have been compared to the subject property with respect to the various elements of comparability. Following is a summary relating the overall comparability of the individual sale properties employed in the subject land value analysis.

The buildings were constructed between 1963 and 2008, and are situated on parcels ranging in size from 24,416 to 33,106 square feet of land area. The sale properties employed herein represent the most recent comparable improved sale properties available for analysis. The overall purchase price has been utilized as the primary unit of analysis in the Sales Comparison Approach. Secondary consideration has been assigned to the price per square foot of land area and purchase price per square foot of building area. The overall purchase prices range between $1,900,000 and $3,194,500, reflecting $64.17 to $110.14 per square foot of land area and $622.95 to $830.60 per square foot of building area. As in the case of the previous land value analysis, differing market conditions were considered in the analysis of the improved fast food restaurant properties. Certain of the improved sales data considered extended over a time period back to the last quarter of 2012. The time frame permitted the development of a rather comprehensive real estate market profile. The sales employed in this report are set forth in chronological order, and took place between November, 2012 and October, 2013. Inasmuch as the sales took place during stable market conditions, adjustments for same are not warranted.

The RCA is a qualitative technique for analyzing comparable sales, and is a valuable tool employed to illustrate whether the characteristics of a comparable property are inferior, superior, or similar to those of the property under appraisement. As stated, it is important to note that the above elements of comparability were not assigned equal weight in malting the analysis of each property. The general location, immediate environmental influences, land size, building size and features, building age /condition, as well as site prominence /exposure were considered the most important factors in the subject case. Overall marketability of each sale property was also considered. Marketability is the practical aspect of selling a property in view of all the elements constituting value, and certain economic and financing conditions prevailing as of the date of sale. The sale properties employed herein are considered having generally similar marketability as the subject property. Another important factor considered in analyzing the overall purchase price per square foot of building area is that of the land /building area ratio. The sale properties have ratios ranging between 6.84:1 and 12.50:1. The subiect nronerty has a ratio of 16.14:1. All of the sale properties employed herein were considered helpfid in the valuation analysis of the subject property.

The resulting unit rate per square foot of building area exceeds the value range indicated by the sale properties due primarily to the higher land/building area ratio of the subject facility. It may be of interest to note that the unit rate per square foot of land area is supported by the comparable sale properties. Income Capitalization Approach: The Income Capitalization Approach is based on the capitalization of net income generated, or capable of being generated, by the subject property. The net operating income is the product of the estimated gross rental income, less allowances for long term vacancy /credit loss and various expense charges. The income /expense pro forma set forth herein is intended to reflect a typical stabilized holding period. Following is the income and expense schedule considered applicable to the subject property.

Value of Part Taken as Part of Whole, Before Taking: The subject parent property is presently improved with a fast food restaurant facility containing 2,510 gross square feet of building area, originally constructed in 1988±. Other appurtenant on -site improvements located within the boundaries of the subject parent property include a trash enclosure, asphalt paving, concrete paving, concrete block walls, wrought iron fencing, concrete curbing, business signage, parking lot signage, metal frame light standards, metal bollards (auto stops), concrete auto stops, marked automobile parking spaces, in- ground irrigation system, and ornamental landscaping. 75B -17 SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION (Continued) Value of Part Taken as Part of Whole, Before Taking: (Continued) In smmnary, the purpose of the public project is for the widening of Bristol Street to its ultimate right- of-way width. The project, as it relates specifically to the larger parent property, entails the acquisition of a permanent roadway easement containing 4,550 square feet of land area. Existing improvements impacted by the project include a portion of the main building, concrete paving, asphalt paving, concrete curbing, various business and parking signage, marked parking spaces, irrigated landscaping, etc. A compensation allowance has been included herein for all improvements impacted by the partial acquisition. As previously stated, the Sales Comparison Approach has been employed herein to estimate the underlying land value of the larger parent property. The acquisition area has been considered and analyzed as part of the larger parent ownership. The fee simple land value applicable to the parent property was estimated at $45.00 per square foot of land area. Compensation for on -site improvements is based on the replacement cost new, less accrued depreciation. The unit rates applicable to the improvements are based on development projects wherein actual rates for a like improvement were available for review. A national cost service providing building costs for a wide variety of construction classes and materials has also be consulted as a secondary check. The overall unit rates applicable to the improvements include labor and material costs, as well as indirect costs such as management and supervision. It should be noted that the value of landscaping is based on its contributory value to the larger parent property. The value of the part acquired, considered as part of the whole parent ownership, before acquisition is estimated as follows: Continued .. . 75B -18 SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION (Continued) Value of Parent Property, Before Taking: (Continued) Land: Roadway area: 4,550 SF @ $45.00' _ Improvements within roadway area: Portion of main building: 588 SF @ $ 175.002 x 83%' = Concrete paving: 288 SF @ $ 8.952 x 83p3 = Asphalt paving: 1,870 SF @ $ 6.752 x 83 %5 = Concrete curbing: 810LF @ $ 18.502 x 83 %3 = Parking sign: 3 qty. @ $ 1,150.002 x 83 %3 = Metal frame light standards: 2 qty. @ $ 2,250.002 x 83 %3 = Monument sign: 1 qty. @ $18,500.002 x 83 %3 = Parking spaces: 14 qty. @ $ 15.002 x 83p3 = Flag pole: 1 qty. @ $ 1,650.002 x 83 %3 = Irrigation system: 4,750 SF @ $ 1.152 x 83 %3 — Landscaped area: 4,750 SF @ $ 6.50" _ Subtotal, improvements: Total value of part taken (land, improvements): $85,407 2,139 10,477 12,438 2,864 3,735 15,355 174 1,370 4,534 30.875 $204,750 169,368 $374,118 Unencumbered fee simple value of the subject underlying land parcel 2 Replacement cost new, inclusive of direct costs, indirect costs and entrepreneurial profit 3 Accrued depreciation based on an effective age of 5 years, and remaining life of 30 years, or (5/30) 17 %, reciprocal employed above ° Estimated value of landscape improvements based on their contributory benefit to the existing parent development 75B -19 SUMMARY OF THE BASIS FOR JUST COMPENSATION (Continued) Value of Remainder, Before Taking: The value of the remaining portion of the subject parent property, after acquisition, before consideration of severance damages and project benefits, is estimated as follows: Value of parent property, before taking: $2,750,000 Less value of part taken (land, improvements): - 374,118 Value of remainder, after acquisition, before consideration of damages and benefits: $2,375,882 Value of Remainder, After Taking: In the "after" condition, the underlying land parcel will contain 35,951 square feet of land area, net of Bristol Street. Other land features such as topography, drainage, effectively land shape, and highest and best use remain unchanged. The site will have continued reasonable vehicular /pedestrian access along Bristol Street. As discussed, the main fast food restaurant building and a significant portion of on -site improvements will be demolished and removed from the site as a result of the street widening project. While certain on -site improvements such as paving, landscaping, concrete curbing, etc., will remain within the remnant parcel, the value of same is judged relatively nominal in a highest and best use context. The subject remainder parcel has been considered and appraised herein as if vacant and readily available for development. The value of the remaining portion of the subject parent property, after acquisition, before consideration of severance damages and project benefits, is estimated by way of the Sales Comparison Approach. The fee simple land value was estimated in the previous portion of this section at $45.00 per square foot of land area. Said rate remains unchanged in the "after" condition.

Considering the foregoing with respect to (1) before condition, (2) analysis of the part taken, and (3) conditions after the taking, severance damages will incur to the remainder as a result of the proposed taking.
