Section 2. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana recommends that the City Council adopt Mitigated Negative Declaration, Environmental Review No. 2017- 96 and adopt an ordinance rezoning the real property located at 2115, 2123 and 2129 North Main Street from Professional (P) to Community Commercial-Museum District (C1- MD). This recommendation is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes, but is not limited to: the Request for Council Action dated February 6, 2018, and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, written and oral, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference. Section 3. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the initial study and the mitigated negative declaration (MND)/Environmental Review No. 2017-96, prepared with respect to this project. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines, a MND adequately addresses the expected environmental impacts of this project. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds that with the implementation of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program there is no evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment. The City Council hereby certifies and approves the MND and directs that the Notice of Determination be prepared and filed with the County Clerk of the County of Orange in the manner required by law. Pursuant to Title XIV, California Code of Regulations (CCR) § 735.5(c)(1), the City Council has determined that, after considering the record as a whole, there is no evidence that the proposed Project will have the potential for any significant adverse effect on wildlife resources or the ecological habitat upon which wildlife resources depend. The proposed Project exists in an urban environment characterized by paved concrete, roadways, surrounding buildings and human activity. However, pursuant to Fish and Game Code § 711.2 and Title XIV, CCR § 735.5, the payment of Fish and Game Department filing fees in conjunction with this project is at the discretion of the State of California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
