The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Edwin Mohabir, representing Concentra Health Services, Inc. (“Applicant”), is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 2020-17 to allow the expansion of an existing 3,200-square industrial medical clinic located at 1619 East Edinger Avenue into two adjacent tenant spaces located at 1621 and 1623 East Edinger Avenue. The total floor area of the entire completed facility will be 9,600 square feet. B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 41-472.5(j), industrial medical clinics within the Light Industrial (M1) zoning district require approval of a CUP. C. Pursuant to SAMC Section 41-638, the Planning Commission is authorized to review and approve the CUP for this project as set forth by the SAMC. D. On August 24, 2020 and September 28, 2020, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing for CUP No. 2020-17. E. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana has considered the information and determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant CUP No. 2020-17, for an industrial medical clinic, have been established as required by SAMC Section 41-638: 1. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. The proposed expansion of an existing industrial medical clinic will provide a service to persons and families that are working or residing in the area. The clinic will provide a benefit to the community by providing needed services to the targeted A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2020-17 AS CONDITIONED TO ALLOW THE EXPANSION OF AN EXISTING INDUSTRIAL MEDICAL CLINIC LOCATED AT 1619 EAST EDINGER AVENUE INTO TWO ADJACENT TENANT SPACES LOCATED AT 1621 AND 1623 EAST EDINGER AVENUE 1 - 3 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 2 of 7 population. Concentra provides occupational health, physical therapy, and urgent cares services. 2. 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. The proposed expansion of the existing industrial medical clinic will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of those residing or working in the vicinity. The facility will be operated within an existing commercial and industrial building and the proposed expansion and its operations are compatible with nearby commercial and industrial uses. Impacts are not anticipated from the project. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The industrial medical clinic will not adversely affect the economic stability or future economic development of properties in the surrounding area. The proposed industrial medical clinic expansion will occupy a vacant tenant space which will help re-establish economic use of the property and help activate the industrial center. The project also includes exterior improvement investments that will improve the appearance and economic stability of the area. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed use complies with the regulations and conditions in Chapter 41 (Zoning) of the SAMC. As part of this application, the Applicant is proposing to conduct exterior and interior improvements to the site. The M1 zoning district allows for industrial medical clinics subject to a conditional use permit. The use is similar in nature to other uses that are permitted within the M1 zoning district. A condition of approval has been added to require front yard landscaping and a property maintenance agreement to be recorded against the property which will ensure that the property and all improvements are properly maintained. 5. 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. The expanded industrial medical clinic will not adversely affect the General Plan. The project is located within the Industrial (IND) General Plan land use designation which plays a vital component to the city’s economic health. These areas provide 1 - 4 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 3 of 7 employment opportunities for local residents, and generate municipal revenues for continued economic growth. Typical uses found in this district include light and heavy product manufacturing and assembly and commercial uses which are ancillary to industrial uses in the district. Approval of the CUP will be consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs for goods and services, and Policy 5.5 encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. The proposed industrial medical clinic expansion will continue to allow Concentra to provide needed services to the City’s residents and workers. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from further review per Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines. The Class 1 exemption applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing private structures involving negligible or no expansion of the use. The existing 12,800-square foot building is within the M1 zone which allows for such use. The proposed industrial medical clinic does not involve an expansion in use since the building has been utilized by similar industrial medical clinic uses in the past. As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2019- 110 will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Edwin Mohabir, representing Concentra Health Services, Inc. (“Applicant”), is requesting approval of Variance (VA) No. 2020-03 to allow a reduction in required off-street parking for an industrial medical clinic located at 1619, 1621 and 1623 East Edinger Avenue. B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 41-1346, medical clinics are required to provide on-site parking at a rate of five spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. Based on this ratio, 54 parking spaces are required for the proposed industrial medical clinic and existing manufacturing use on-site. The Applicant is proposing to provide 40 parking spaces on-site, 26 percent less than the required on-site parking, therefore, requiring approval of a variance. C. Pursuant to SAMC 41-632, the Planning Commission is authorized to review and approve a variance for a reduction in off-street parking for the subject property and project as set forth by the SAMC. D. On August 24, 2020 and September 28, 2020, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing for VA No. 2020-03. E. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana has considered the information and determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant VA No. 2020-03, for a reduction in required off-street parking, have been established as required by SAMC section 41-638: 1. 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 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING VARIANCE NO. 2020-03 AS CONDITIONED ALLOWING A REDUCTION IN REQUIRED OFF- STREET PARKING TO FACILITATE EXPANSION OF AN EXISTING INDUSTRIAL MEDICAL CLINIC LOCATED AT 1619, 1621 AND 1623 EAST EDINGER AVENUE 1 - 10 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 2 of 8 variance with the intent and purpose of the provisions of this Chapter. There are special circumstances related to the existing conditions of the property. In 1969, the building and site improvements were constructed which included a 12,800- square foot building. In order to meet the City’s current off- street parking requirements for an industrial medical clinic, significant modifications to the building and site, such as demolishing portions of the building, would be required. Strict application of the off-street parking regulations would not allow the tenant to expand its operations and services to its customers. The parking analysis conducted by Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc., supports the intent of the code which is to provide sufficient off-street parking. The study indicates that there would be sufficient parking for the proposed use, therefore, no parking impacts to the nearby uses or properties will be created. 2. That the granting of a variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of one (1) or more substantial property rights. Granting this variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. Granting this variance will allow the property to continue and expand its use as an industrial medical clinic which will benefit the community at large. The use is compatible with surrounding land uses and will not be detrimental to the surrounding community. 3. That the granting of a variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to surrounding property. Granting this variance will not be detrimental to the public or surrounding properties. A parking analysis was conducted which concluded that a peak demand of 37 parking spaces would be needed for the combined land uses on-site. The peak demand has been determined to occur from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Based on the results of the parking analysis, a surplus of three (3) parking spaces will be provided on-site and the proposed 40 parking stalls are sufficient to meet the demand of both land uses. Furthermore, conditions of approval have been added to the variance which would mitigate, if there was any, impact to surrounding properties. 1 - 11 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 3 of 8 4. That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city. The variance for a reduction in required off-street parking will not adversely affect the General Plan. The project is located within the Industrial (IND) General Plan land use designation which plays a vital component to the city’s economic health. These areas provide employment opportunities for local residents, and generate municipal revenues for continued economic growth. Typical uses found in this district include light and heavy product manufacturing and assembly, and commercial uses which are ancillary to industrial uses in the district. Approval of the variance will be consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. The expanded industrial medical clinic will not adversely affect the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs for goods and services and Policy 5.5 encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. The proposed industrial medical clinic expansion will continue to allow Concentra to provide needed services to the City’s residents and workers. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from further review per Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines. The Class 1 exemption applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing private structures involving negligible or no expansion of the use. The existing 12,800-square foot building is within the M1 zone which allows for such use. The proposed industrial medical clinic does not involve an expansion in use since the building has been utilized by similar industrial medical clinic uses in the past. As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2019- 110 will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or 1 - 12 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 4 of 8 local constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense. City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any Action brought and City shall cooperate with Applicant in the defense of the Action. Section 4. Variance No. 2020-03 shall not be effective unless and until the Planning Commission reviews and approves Conditional Use Permit No. 2020-17. If said approvals are held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise denied, then this variance shall be null and void and have no further force and effect. Section 5. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana, after conducting the public hearing, hereby approves VA No. 2020-03 as conditioned in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated as though fully set forth herein. This decision is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes, but is not limited to: the Request for Planning Commission Action dated August 24, 2020 and September 28, 2020, and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, written and oral, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides an evaluation of the parking demand for the proposed project at a site located at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue in the City of Santa Ana. The Project is located on the north side of East Edinger Avenue between South Lyon Street and Grand Avenue. There is a 12,800 square foot building existing on the site. The building is separated into four 3,200 square foot units. A permitted and occupied 3,200 industrial medical office is located within the 1619 East Edinger Avenue space of the building and a 3,200 square foot manufacturing business operates within 1625 East Edinger Avenue space of the building. The Project will: Expand the existing industrial medical office by an additional 3,200 square feet in the 1621 East Edinger Avenue space; and Provide entitlements for the associated 3,200 square feet of physical therapy space within the 1623 East Edinger Avenue portion of the building. Surface parking for the site is provided along the southern boundary of the site and along the east and north walls of the building. After modification for path of travel and trash enclosure, there will be a total of 40 shared parking spaces provided for the building. Vehicular access is provided from East Edinger Avenue with a driveway along the western boundary of the site that is shared with the neighboring uses. The focus of this parking demand study is to determine the City of Santa Ana code required parking and determine if the 40 parking spaces provided on-site are sufficient to accommodate the peak parking demand of the Project along with the existing uses. The City of Santa Ana code required vehicle parking is 54 spaces. Institute of Transportation Engineers parking demand for the land uses has been determined to be 40 spaces. Based on determined usage of the Project including employees and patients, it has been found that a peak parking demand of 37 parking spaces would be needed for the combined existing and project expansion uses. The peak demand has been determined to occur from 9 to 10 AM, Noon to 2 PM and from 6 to 7 PM. This peak demand would be accommodated on site with a surplus of 3 spaces. 1 - 21 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.3 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. PARKING DEMAND STUDY DESCRIPTION The focus of the parking demand study is to document the City of Santa Ana code required parking for the mixed-use building located at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue and to determine the potential future peak parking demand of the building at full occupancy. Incorporated into this analysis is a goal to continue to provide sufficient on-site parking availability to accommodate the peak demand. The 12,800 square foot building at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 is currently permitted and occupied by a 3,200 square foot industrial medical office and 3,200 square foot manufacturing use. The Project, if approved, will allow for a 3,200 square foot expansion of the industrial medical office and the permit additional, associated, 3,200 square feet of physical therapy offices. Upon completion the building will house 6,800 square feet of industrial medical office with associated physical therapy and 3,200 square feet of manufacturing. A copy of the site plan is provided in Attachment A Perpendicular parking spaces are provided along the southern boundary of the site and along the east and north walls of the building. A total of 40 on-site surface parking spaces are provided. Vehicular access is provided to/from East Edinger Avenue via a shared driveway. A channelized left turn pocket is provided on East Edinger Avenue. PARKING DEMAND ANALYSIS PROCESS The first step was to determine current City of Santa Ana code-parking requirement for the Project and the site as a whole. The vehicle parking requirement is 2 spaces per 1,000 square feet for the manufacturing (Section 41-1390) and 5 spaces per 1,000 square feet for the medical office (Section 41.1346). Parking demand for the site may be reduced by use of the transit opportunities, cycling and walking in the area. The employees and patrons on site have an opportunity to use of mass transit instead of personal vehicles. Figure 1 provides a map of the Orange County mass transit services in the area. 1 - 22 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.4 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. Figure 1 Transit Services (Focused Orange County Transit Map) Parking demand for the building based on national standards of the Institute of Transportation Engineers Parking Demand Manual was then determined based on the individual land uses and size. Hourly parking demand for the building was then determined based on the individual land uses within the building including existing uses at code required parking rate (due to inability to collect accurate current demand) and for the Project based on operator input regarding estimated number of employees and hours and patient appointment rates and length of stay. The estimated parking demand in this study was not reduced by anticipated transit usage to provide a conservative estimate of demand. 1 - 23 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.5 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. CITY OF SANTA ANA CODE PARKING REQUIREMENT FOR SITE City of Santa Ana parking requirements have been calculated by the applying Zoning Code parking rates (Section 41-1390 & (Section 41-1346) as provided below in Table 1: Table 1 City of Santa Ana Current Zoning Code Requirements Parking Code Parking Required Land Use Size Requirement Parking Existing Medical Office 3,200 sf 5 per 1,000 sf 16 Manufacturing 3,200 sf 2 per 1,000 sf 6 Subtotal Existing 6,400 sf 22 Proposed Medical Office Expansion 3,200 sf 5 per 1,000 sf 16 Physical Therapy 3,200 sf 5 per 1,000 sf 16 Subtotal Proposed 6,400 sf 32 Total Required 12,800 sf 54 There will be 40 parking spaces on-site with the Project. The building will have 14 fewer on-site parking spaces than would be required by City code. However, as provided in the following two sections, Institute of Transportation Engineers parking demand is within the limits of the parking supply and the proposed new uses operational parking demand for patients and employees hourly in addition to the existing use will be within the limits of the parking supply. INSTITUTE OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERS PARKING DEMAND The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publishes a Parking Demand Handbook that provides parking demand rates for many land uses. The demand in the handbook has been determined by collecting parking data at multiple sites throughout the day. Parking demand in the ITE Parking Demand Manual, 5th Edition for manufacturing is identified as 0.82 spaces per 1,000 square feet. Parking demand for medical clinics and medical/dental offices have also been evaluated in the manual. The average rate for a 1 - 24 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.6 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. clinic is 3.89 spaces per 1,000 square feet with 12 sites studied. The average rate for a medical/dental office is 3.23 per 1,000 square feet with 117 sites studied. The ITE clinic rate was used in the estimate of the parking demand instead of medical/dental office because it is higher. The ITE based building’s parking demand is provided on the following in Table 2. Table 2 ITE Demand 85th Code Percentile Required Land Use Size Demand Parking Existing Medical Office 3,200 sf 3.89 per 1,000 sf 12 Manufacturing 3,200 sf 0.82 per 1,000 sf 3 Subtotal Existing 6,400 sf 15 Proposed Medical OfficeExpansion 3,200 sf 3.89 per 1,000 sf 12 Physical Therapy 3,200 sf 3.89 per 1,000 sf 12 Subtotal Proposed 6,400 sf 24 Total Required 12,800 sf 39 There will be 40 parking spaces on-site with the Project which exceeds the ITE estimated parking demand by one space. HOURLY PARKING DEMAND BASED ON OPERATIONAL USE Parking demand for the project and the building as a whole at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue has been determined based on current estimated demand with the Project land use demand added. Existing Demand The existing land uses include the 3,200 square foot industrial medical office and 3,200 square foot manufacturing use. Optimally, the building site would be surveyed to determine the existing uses demand within the parking lot. Unfortunately, this report has been initiated during the coronavirus business shutdowns and government stay put request. Parking demand counts during this time would not be representative of a typical 1 - 25 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.7 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. day. Therefore, existing parking demand was estimated as the code required parking for these two land uses. As shown in Table 1, existing parking demand is estimated as 22 parking spaces. In order to provide a conservative analysis, parking demand for every hour was estimated as 22 even though the demand would likely be smaller during different times of the day. Project Demand The Project parking demand was based on operations determined for the proposed 3,200 square foot industrial medical office expansion and the associated 3,200 square foot physical therapy office. Existing operators of the industrial medical office and physical therapy indicated the following: Patients: 24 to 33 per day with 2 to 3 per hour Employees: 9 new employees The hours of operation are from 7 AM to 9 PM. As shown in Table 3 on the following page, the Project would create a parking demand of 11 to 15 parking spaces. When added to the existing parking demand for 22 spaces, the peak parking demand is 37 parking spaces. This peak occurs from 9 to 10 AM, noon to 2 PM and again in the evening from 6 to7 PM. The building will have 6 more on-site parking spaces than would be needed according to parking demand based on operational use of the Project.

PARKING DEMAND FINDINGS & SUMMARY A demand parking analysis was conducted including the existing uses on site and the Project components including 40 parking spaces, 6,800 square feet of industrial medical office with associated physical therapy and 3,200 square feet of manufacturing. The site does not have enough parking to meet City code requirements for 54 parking. Enough parking is provided to meet estimated ITE Parking Demand of 39 spaces. Hourly parking demand based on operational use at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue site is estimated as a maximum of 37 parking spaces from 9 to 10 AM, noon to 2 PM and again in the evening from 6 to7 PM. Peak parking demand for the site with the expansion of 3,200 square foot industrial medical office and 3,200 square foot physical therapy medical office is met with 3 surplus parking spaces. PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN Any potential increase in patient count will be diverted to one of our other clinics nearby. Two locations nearby include: 800 North Tustin Ave, Santa Ana, CA 92705 is located 3 miles away from the proposed facility. 3100 W. Warner Ave, Santa Ana CA 92704 located 5 miles away from the proposed facility. 1 - 29 Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Edwin Mohabir, representing Concentra Health Services, Inc. (“Applicant”), is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 2020-17 to allow the expansion of an existing 3,200-square industrial medical clinic located at 1619 East Edinger Avenue into two adjacent tenant spaces located at 1621 and 1623 East Edinger Avenue. The total floor area of the entire completed facility will be 9,600 square feet. B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 41-472.5(j), industrial medical clinics within the Light Industrial (M1) zoning district require approval of a CUP. C. Pursuant to SAMC Section 41-638, the Planning Commission is authorized to review and approve the CUP for this project as set forth by the SAMC. D. On August 24, 2020, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing for CUP No. 2020-17. E. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana has considered the information and determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant CUP No. 2020-17, for an industrial medical clinic, have been established as required by SAMC Section 41-638: 1. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. The proposed expansion of an existing industrial medical clinic will provide a service to persons and families that are working or residing in the area. The clinic will provide a benefit to the community by providing needed services to the targeted A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2020-17 AS CONDITIONED TO ALLOW THE EXPANSION OF AN EXISTING INDUSTRIAL MEDICAL CLINIC LOCATED AT 1619 EAST EDINGER AVENUE INTO TWO ADJACENT TENANT SPACES LOCATED AT 1621 AND 1623 EAST EDINGER AVENUE 2-71 - 38 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 2 of 6 population. Concentra provides occupational health, physical therapy, and urgent cares services. 2. 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. The proposed expansion of the existing industrial medical clinic will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of those residing or working in the vicinity. The facility will be operated within an existing commercial and industrial building and the proposed expansion and its operations are compatible with nearby commercial and industrial uses. Impacts are not anticipated from the project. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The industrial medical clinic will not adversely affect the economic stability or future economic development of properties in the surrounding area. The proposed industrial medical clinic expansion will occupy a vacant tenant space which will help re-establish economic use of the property and help activate the industrial center. The project also includes exterior improvement investments that will improve the appearance and economic stability of the area. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed use complies with the regulations and conditions in Chapter 41 (Zoning) of the SAMC. As part of this application, the Applicant is proposing to conduct exterior and interior improvements to the site. The M1 zoning district allows for industrial medical clinics subject to a conditional use permit. The use is similar in nature to other uses that are permitted within the M1 zoning district. A condition of approval has been added to require front yard landscaping and a property maintenance agreement to be recorded against the property which will ensure that the property and all improvements are properly maintained. 5. 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. The expanded industrial medical clinic will not adversely affect the General Plan. The project is located within the Industrial (IND) General Plan land use designation which plays a vital 2-81 - 39 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 3 of 6 component to the city’s economic health. These areas provide employment opportunities for local residents, and generate municipal revenues for continued economic growth. Typical uses found in this district include light and heavy product manufacturing and assembly and commercial uses which are ancillary to industrial uses in the district. Approval of the CUP will be consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs for goods and services, and Policy 5.5 encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. The proposed industrial medical clinic expansion will continue to allow Concentra to provide needed services to the City’s residents and workers. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from further review per Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines. The Class 1 exemption applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing private structures involving negligible or no expansion of the use. The existing 12,800-square foot building is within the M1 zone which allows for such use. The proposed industrial medical clinic does not involve an expansion in use since the building has been utilized by similar industrial medical clinic uses in the past. As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2019- 110 will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense. City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any Action brought and City shall cooperate with Applicant in the defense of the Action. 2-91 - 40 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 4 of 6 Section 4. Conditional Use Permit No. 2020-17 shall not be effective unless and until the Planning Commission reviews and approves Variance No. 2020-03. If said approvals are held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise denied, then this conditional use permit shall be null and void and have no further force and effect.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Edwin Mohabir, representing Concentra Health Services, Inc. (“Applicant”), is requesting approval of Variance (VA) No. 2020-03 to allow a reduction in required off-street parking for an industrial medical clinic located at 1619, 1621 and 1623 East Edinger Avenue. B. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) Section 41-1346, medical clinics are required to provide on-site parking at a rate of five spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. Based on this ratio, 54 parking spaces are required for the proposed industrial medical clinic and existing manufacturing use on-site. The Applicant is proposing to provide 40 parking spaces on-site, 26 percent less than the required on-site parking, therefore, requiring approval of a variance. C. Pursuant to SAMC 41-632, the Planning Commission is authorized to review and approve a variance for a reduction in off-street parking for the subject property and project as set forth by the SAMC. D. On August 24, 2020, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing for VA No. 2020-03. E. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana has considered the information and determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant VA No. 2020-03, for a reduction in required off-street parking, have been established as required by SAMC section 41-638: 1. 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 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING VARIANCE NO. 2020-03 AS CONDITIONED ALLOWING A REDUCTION IN REQUIRED OFF- STREET PARKING TO FACILITATE EXPANSION OF AN EXISTING INDUSTRIAL MEDICAL CLINIC LOCATED AT 1619, 1621 AND 1623 EAST EDINGER AVENUE 2-141 - 45 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 2 of 7 variance with the intent and purpose of the provisions of this Chapter. There are special circumstances related to the existing conditions of the property. In 1969, the building and site improvements were constructed which included a 12,800-square foot building. In order to meet the City’s current off-street parking requirements for an industrial medical clinic, significant modifications to the building and site, such as demolishing portions of the building, would be required. Strict application of the off-street parking regulations would not allow the tenant to expand its operations and services to its customers. The parking analysis conducted by Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc., supports the intent of the code which is to provide sufficient off-street parking. The study indicates that there would be sufficient parking for the proposed use, therefore, no parking impacts to the nearby uses or properties will be created. 2. That the granting of a variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of one (1) or more substantial property rights. Granting this variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. Granting this variance will allow the property to continue and expand its use as an industrial medical clinic which will benefit the community at large. The use is compatible with surrounding land uses and will not be detrimental to the surrounding community. 3. That the granting of a variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to surrounding property. Granting this variance will not be detrimental to the public or surrounding properties. A parking analysis was conducted which concluded that a peak demand of 37 parking spaces would be needed for the combined land uses on-site. The peak demand has been determined to occur from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Based on the results of the parking analysis, a surplus of three (3) parking spaces will be provided on-site and the proposed 40 parking stalls are sufficient to meet the demand of both land uses. Furthermore, conditions of approval have been added to the variance which would mitigate, if there was any, impact to surrounding properties. 4. That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city. 2-151 - 46 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 3 of 7 The variance for a reduction in required off-street parking will not adversely affect the General Plan. The project is located within the Industrial (IND) General Plan land use designation which plays a vital component to the city’s economic health. These areas provide employment opportunities for local residents, and generate municipal revenues for continued economic growth. Typical uses found in this district include light and heavy product manufacturing and assembly, and commercial uses which are ancillary to industrial uses in the district. Approval of the variance will be consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan. The expanded industrial medical clinic will not adversely affect the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs for goods and services and Policy 5.5 encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. The proposed industrial medical clinic expansion will continue to allow Concentra to provide needed services to the City’s residents and workers. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from further review per Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines. The Class 1 exemption applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing private structures involving negligible or no expansion of the use. The existing 12,800-square foot building is within the M1 zone which allows for such use. The proposed industrial medical clinic does not involve an expansion in use since the building has been utilized by similar industrial medical clinic uses in the past. As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2019- 110 will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a 2-161 - 47 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 4 of 7 court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense. City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any Action brought and City shall cooperate with Applicant in the defense of the Action. Section 4. Variance No. 2020-03 shall not be effective unless and until the Planning Commission reviews and approves Conditional Use Permit No. 2020-17. If said approvals are held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise denied, then this variance shall be null and void and have no further force and effect. Section 5. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana, after conducting the public hearing, hereby approves VA No. 2020-03 as conditioned in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated as though fully set forth herein. This decision is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes, but is not limited to: the Request for Planning Commission Action dated August 24, 2020, and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, written and oral, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference.

Edinger Av.2 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Executive Summary Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides an evaluation of the parking demand for the proposed project at a site located at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue in the City of Santa Ana. The Project is located on the north side of East Edinger Avenue between South Lyon Street and Grand Avenue. There is a 12,800 square foot building existing on the site. The building is separated into four 3,200 square foot units. A permitted and occupied 3,200 industrial medical office is located within the 1619 East Edinger Avenue space of the building and a 3,200 square foot manufacturing business operates within 1625 East Edinger Avenue space of the building. The Project will: Expand the existing industrial medical office by an additional 3,200 square feet in the 1621 East Edinger Avenue space; and Provide entitlements for the associated 3,200 square feet of physical therapy space within the 1623 East Edinger Avenue portion of the building. Surface parking for the site is provided along the southern boundary of the site and along the east and north walls of the building. After modification for path of travel and trash enclosure, there will be a total of 40 shared parking spaces provided for the building. Vehicular access is provided from East Edinger Avenue with a driveway along the western boundary of the site that is shared with the neighboring uses. The focus of this parking demand study is to determine the City of Santa Ana code required parking and determine if the 40 parking spaces provided on-site are sufficient to accommodate the peak parking demand of the Project along with the existing uses. The City of Santa Ana code required vehicle parking is 54 spaces. Institute of Transportation Engineers parking demand for the land uses has been determined to be 40 spaces. Based on determined usage of the Project including employees and patients, it has been found that a peak parking demand of 37 parking spaces would be needed for the combined existing and project expansion uses. The peak demand has been determined to occur from 9 to 10 AM, Noon to 2 PM and from 6 to 7 PM. This peak demand would be accommodated on site with a surplus of 3 spaces. 2-331 - 64 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.3 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. PARKING DEMAND STUDY DESCRIPTION The focus of the parking demand study is to document the City of Santa Ana code required parking for the mixed-use building located at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue and to determine the potential future peak parking demand of the building at full occupancy. Incorporated into this analysis is a goal to continue to provide sufficient on-site parking availability to accommodate the peak demand. The 12,800 square foot building at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 is currently permitted and occupied by a 3,200 square foot industrial medical office and 3,200 square foot manufacturing use. The Project, if approved, will allow for a 3,200 square foot expansion of the industrial medical office and the permit additional, associated, 3,200 square feet of physical therapy offices. Upon completion the building will house 6,800 square feet of industrial medical office with associated physical therapy and 3,200 square feet of manufacturing. A copy of the site plan is provided in Attachment A Perpendicular parking spaces are provided along the southern boundary of the site and along the east and north walls of the building. A total of 40 on-site surface parking spaces are provided. Vehicular access is provided to/from East Edinger Avenue via a shared driveway. A channelized left turn pocket is provided on East Edinger Avenue. PARKING DEMAND ANALYSIS PROCESS The first step was to determine current City of Santa Ana code-parking requirement for the Project and the site as a whole. The vehicle parking requirement is 2 spaces per 1,000 square feet for the manufacturing (Section 41-1390) and 5 spaces per 1,000 square feet for the medical office (Section 41.1346). Parking demand for the site may be reduced by use of the transit opportunities, cycling and walking in the area. The employees and patrons on site have an opportunity to use of mass transit instead of personal vehicles. Figure 1 provides a map of the Orange County mass transit services in the area. 2-341 - 65 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.4 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. Figure 1 Transit Services (Focused Orange County Transit Map) Parking demand for the building based on national standards of the Institute of Transportation Engineers Parking Demand Manual was then determined based on the individual land uses and size. Hourly parking demand for the building was then determined based on the individual land uses within the building including existing uses at code required parking rate (due to inability to collect accurate current demand) and for the Project based on operator input regarding estimated number of employees and hours and patient appointment rates and length of stay. The estimated parking demand in this study was not reduced by anticipated transit usage to provide a conservative estimate of demand. 2-351 - 66 1619, 1621, & 1623 E.

CITY OF SANTA ANA CODE PARKING REQUIREMENT FOR SITE City of Santa Ana parking requirements have been calculated by the applying Zoning Code parking rates (Section 41-1390 & (Section 41-1346) as provided below in Table 1: Table 1 City of Santa Ana Current Zoning Code Requirements Parking Code Parking Required Land Use Size Requirement Parking Existing Medical Office 3,200 sf 5 per 1,000 sf 16 Manufacturing 3,200 sf 2 per 1,000 sf 6 Subtotal Existing 6,400 sf 22 Proposed Medical Office Expansion 3,200 sf 5 per 1,000 sf 16 Physical Therapy 3,200 sf 5 per 1,000 sf 16 Subtotal Proposed 6,400 sf 32 Total Required 12,800 sf 54 There will be 40 parking spaces on-site with the Project. The building will have 14 fewer on-site parking spaces than would be required by City code. However, as provided in the following two sections, Institute of Transportation Engineers parking demand is within the limits of the parking supply and the proposed new uses operational parking demand for patients and employees hourly in addition to the existing use will be within the limits of the parking supply. INSTITUTE OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERS PARKING DEMAND The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publishes a Parking Demand Handbook that provides parking demand rates for many land uses. The demand in the handbook has been determined by collecting parking data at multiple sites throughout the day. Parking demand in the ITE Parking Demand Manual, 5th Edition for manufacturing is identified as 0.82 spaces per 1,000 square feet. Parking demand for medical clinics and medical/dental offices have also been evaluated in the manual. The average rate for a 2-361 - 67 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.6 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. clinic is 3.89 spaces per 1,000 square feet with 12 sites studied. The average rate for a medical/dental office is 3.23 per 1,000 square feet with 117 sites studied. The ITE clinic rate was used in the estimate of the parking demand instead of medical/dental office because it is higher. The ITE based building’s parking demand is provided on the following in Table 2. Table 2 ITE Demand 85th Code Percentile Required Land Use Size Demand Parking Existing Medical Office 3,200 sf 3.89 per 1,000 sf 12 Manufacturing 3,200 sf 0.82 per 1,000 sf 3 Subtotal Existing 6,400 sf 15 Proposed Medical OfficeExpansion 3,200 sf 3.89 per 1,000 sf 12 Physical Therapy 3,200 sf 3.89 per 1,000 sf 12 Subtotal Proposed 6,400 sf 24 Total Required 12,800 sf 39 There will be 40 parking spaces on-site with the Project which exceeds the ITE estimated parking demand by one space. HOURLY PARKING DEMAND BASED ON OPERATIONAL USE Parking demand for the project and the building as a whole at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue has been determined based on current estimated demand with the Project land use demand added. Existing Demand The existing land uses include the 3,200 square foot industrial medical office and 3,200 square foot manufacturing use. Optimally, the building site would be surveyed to determine the existing uses demand within the parking lot. Unfortunately, this report has been initiated during the coronavirus business shutdowns and government stay put request. Parking demand counts during this time would not be representative of a typical 2-371 - 68 1619, 1621, & 1623 E. Edinger Av.7 April 2020 Parking Demand Study Parking Demand Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc. day. Therefore, existing parking demand was estimated as the code required parking for these two land uses. As shown in Table 1, existing parking demand is estimated as 22 parking spaces. In order to provide a conservative analysis, parking demand for every hour was estimated as 22 even though the demand would likely be smaller during different times of the day. Project Demand The Project parking demand was based on operations determined for the proposed 3,200 square foot industrial medical office expansion and the associated 3,200 square foot physical therapy office. Existing operators of the industrial medical office and physical therapy indicated the following: Patients: 24 to 33 per day with 2 to 3 per hour Employees: 9 new employees The hours of operation are from 7 AM to 9 PM. As shown in Table 3 on the following page, the Project would create a parking demand of 11 to 15 parking spaces. When added to the existing parking demand for 22 spaces, the peak parking demand is 37 parking spaces. This peak occurs from 9 to 10 AM, noon to 2 PM and again in the evening from 6 to7 PM. The building will have 6 more on-site parking spaces than would be needed according to parking demand based on operational use of the Project. Figure 2 on page 8, displays the hourly parking demand and found in Table 3 of the patients, the employees, the patients + employees, the existing uses and the combined total. 2-381 - 69 1619, 1621, & 1623 E.

PARKING DEMAND FINDINGS & SUMMARY A demand parking analysis was conducted including the existing uses on site and the Project components including 40 parking spaces, 6,800 square feet of industrial medical office with associated physical therapy and 3,200 square feet of manufacturing. The site does not have enough parking to meet City code requirements for 54 parking. Enough parking is provided to meet estimated ITE Parking Demand of 40 spaces. Hourly parking demand based on operational use at 1619, 1621, 1623 and 1625 East Edinger Avenue site is estimated as a maximum of 37 parking spaces from 9 to 10 AM, noon to 2 PM and again in the evening from 6 to7 PM. Peak parking demand for the site with the expansion of 3,200 square foot industrial medical office and 3,200 square foot physical therapy medical office is met with 3 surplus parking spaces. 2-411 - 72 Overland Traffic Consultants, Inc.
