TOPIC: Zoning Ordinance Amendment (ZOA) No. 2021-01 – Light Processing
(Recycling) Facilities Urgency Ordinance
AGENDA TITLE:
Public Hearing - Zoning Ordinance Amendment (ZOA) No. 2021-01 to Amend Sections
41-472 and 41-472.5 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) to Require a Conditional
Use Permit (CUP) for Light Processing Facilities as Defined by (SAMC) 41-1250 (d)
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve ZOA No. 2021-01 to adopt an Urgency Ordinance to amend Sections 41-472
and 41-472.5 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) to require a conditional use permit
(CUP) for Light Processing Facilities in the Light Industrial (M-1) zoning district.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Prevention of detrimental impacts to residents, the public interest, health, safety and
welfare requires the immediate enactment of this ordinance. The absence of this Urgency
Ordinance will create a serious threat to the orderly and effective implementation of any
code amendments, General Plan amendments, or specific plan amendments which may
be adopted by the City; light processing facilities permitted by-right may be in conflict with
or frustrate other provisions of the SAMC intended to guarantee or preserve the public
peace, health, or safety. The proposed Urgency Ordinance would amend Section 41-472
of the SAMC to remove light processing facilities as a use permitted by right in the Light
Industrial (M-1). The Urgency Ordinance would also amend Section 41-472.5 of the
SAMC to add light processing facilities as a conditionally-permitted use in the same
zoning district, thereby allowing the Planning Commission and City Council to approve,
conditionally approve, or deny applications for such facilities.
DISCUSSION
On January 19, 1988, the City Council adopted Ordinance NS-1946, adding Article XIV
to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) to regulate recycling facilities.
The ordinance created a regulatory framework to define, allow, and regulate recycling
facilities and related uses in Santa Ana, including recycling facilities, collection facilities,
and processing facilities. A subsequent ordinance, Ordinance NS-2333, was adopted on
October 6, 1997 to update and bring the City’s existing recycling facilities ordinance into
conformance with State laws in place at the time.

Recycling uses range from smaller drop-off (collection) facilities and reverse vending
machines at the various commercial centers throughout Santa Ana, to processing
facilities where recyclable materials are bailed, compacted, flattened, grinded and
crushed, sorted, shredded, cleaned, and remanufactured. These more complex
operations are defined as processing facilities, further broken down into two categories:
Light and Heavy, and are permitted in Santa Ana’s Industrial (M-1 and M-2) zoning
districts.
Processing facilities are defined in SAMC Section 41-1250 (d). As defined in the SAMC,
a processing facility is a building or enclosed space used for the collection and processing
of recyclable materials. Processing includes the preparation of material for efficient
shipment, or to an end-user's specifications, by such means as baling, briquetting,
compacting, flattening, grinding, crushing, mechanical sorting, shredding, cleaning, and
remanufacturing. Pursuant to the SAMC, a light processing facility occupies an area of
under forty-five thousand (45,000) square feet of gross collection, processing and storage
area and has up to an average of two (2) outboard truck shipments per day. Light
processing facilities are limited to baling, briquetting, crushing, compacting, grinding,
shredding and sorting of source-separated recyclable materials and repairing of reusable
materials sufficient to quality as a certified processing facility. Light processing facilities
may not shred, compact, or bale ferrous metals other than food and beverage containers.
Further, the SAMC states that a heavy processing facility is any processing facility other
than a light processing facility. As presently written, the SAMC requires a CUP for heavy
processing facilities, which are only permitted in the Heavy Industrial (M-2) zoning district.
Section 41-1255 of the SAMC contains operational standards for all processing facilities,
whether light or heavy, one of which is that such facilities may not abut a property zoned
or used for residential purpose. However, due to the City’s age, development patterns,
and past zoning practices, there exists multiple areas of the City where Industrial (M-1
and M-2) zoning districts directly abut residentially-zoned or used properties, including in
the Delhi, Logan, Cornerstone Village, Lacy, French Park, Artesia Pilar, Casa Bonita, and
other residential properties near Harbor Mixed-Use Transit Corridor Specific Plan (SP-2),
Santa Anita, and Mar-Les neighborhoods that are not part of an established neighborhood
association. In these areas and under the current SAMC regulations, a light processing
facility may operate just one property away from a residential land use, without any CUP
requirement. The absence of a CUP requirement does not allow the City to evaluate each
submitted application for consistency with surrounding properties and neighborhoods, as
well as the General Plan, to therefore recommend approval or denial of such applications
subject to a discretionary review process. Moreover, the current by-right review prevents
the Planning Commission and City Council from imposing conditions of approval to
ensure compatible and unimpactful operations of such facilities with surrounding
properties and neighborhoods.
Operations typical of light processing facilities, which include preparation of material for
efficient shipment, or to an end-user's specifications, by such means as baling,

briquetting, compacting, flattening, grinding, crushing, mechanical sorting, shredding,
cleaning, and remanufacturing, are known to have detrimental effects on surrounding
properties due to the noise, odor, vibration, vermin infestation, visual, and traffic impacts
caused by inbound and outbound truck movements to and from such facilities. The
absence of a CUP requirement for such facilities severely circumscribes the City’s ability,
through its administrative review process, to impose conditions on such operations that
would otherwise protect the health, welfare, and safety of residents and visitors to
properties abutting or in the vicinity of light processing facilities.
There currently exist 12 light processing facilities in the City. Of these, six are located in
the Light Industrial (M-1) zoning district and five are operating without a Conditional Use
Permit. Out of the 12 light processing facilities, 11 are within 1,000 feet of property zoned
or used for residential purposes. The proposed SAMC amendment would ensure
continued consistency of the Zoning Code’s regulations with SAMC Section 41-1, which
articulates the purpose of the City’s Zoning Code. The absence of a Conditional Use
Permit requirement for light processing facilities is inconsistent with the goals expressed
by SAMC Section 41-1 in that discretion by the Planning Commission and City Council
may not be exercised to ensure that the location and operation of such facilities are
compatible with the scale, character, and nature of surrounding properties and
neighborhoods as specified in SAMC Sections 41-1 (a), (b), (e), and (f). Specifically, these
include goals to encourage the most appropriate use of land; conserve and stabilize
property value; lessen congestion on streets and highways, and; promote the health,
safety and the general welfare of the people, all as part of the Santa Ana General Plan.
Urgency Ordinance
Pursuant to Charter Section 415 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code and California
Government Code Section 65858, the City Council is authorized to adopt an interim
(urgency) ordinance, without following the procedures otherwise required for the adoption
of an ordinance. The ordinance will protect the public safety, health, and welfare,
prohibiting a use that has been determined to be in conflict with a contemplated general
plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the City Council, Planning Commission or the
Planning Division is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable time.
Concurrent with this effort, the Planning Division is preparing a permanent ordinance that
will require Planning Commission review before consideration by the City Council. Upon
adoption, that ordinance would become effective 30 days after the City Council’s second
reading.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and the state CEQA
Guidelines, the adoption of this Ordinance is exempt from CEQA review pursuant to
California Code of Regulations section 15061(b)(3), which is applicable if it can be seen
with certainty that there is no possibility that the project may have a significant effect on
ZOA No. 2021-01 – Light Processing (Recycling) Facilities Urgency Ordinance

the environment. As a result, a Notice of Exemption will be filed upon adoption of this
ordinance.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action. However, adoption of this
Ordinance would result in a CUP application requirement for light processing facilities.
The current CUP application review fee is $6,150.89.

ORDINANCE NO. NS-XXX
AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AMENDING SECTIONS 41-472
AND 41-472.5 OF THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE TO
REQUIRE A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR
PROCESSING FACILITIES AS DEFINED IN SANTA ANA
MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 41-1250
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA HEREBY ORDAINS AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. On January 19, 1988, the City Council adopted Ordinance NS-1946,
adding Article XIV to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) to
regulate recycling facilities.
B. Ordinance NS-1946 established definitions, zoning, regulations, and
operational standards for a variety of recycling-related uses, including recycling
facilities, collection facilities, and processing facilities.
C. On October 6, 1997, the City Council adopted Ordinance NS-2333,
amending various sections of the SAMC regarding recycling regulations to update
and bring the City’s existing recycling facilities ordinance into conformance with
State laws in place at the time. Ordinance NS-2333 remains in full effect.
D. Pursuant to SAMC Section 41-1250 (d), a Processing Facility is a building
or enclosed space used for the collection and processing of recyclable materials.
Processing means the preparation of material for efficient shipment, or to an end-
user's specifications, by such means as baling, briquetting, compacting, flattening,
grinding, crushing, mechanical sorting, shredding, cleaning, and remanufacturing.
Such facilities are distinguished between Light Processing Facilities or Heavy
Processing Facilities, as defined in SAMC Sections 41-1250 (d) (1) and 41-1250 (d)
(2), respectively.
E. A Light Processing Facility is permitted as a use in the Light Industrial (M-
1) and Heavy Industrial (M-2) zoning districts pursuant to Sections 41-472 (y) (3) and
41-489 of the SAMC, respectively, without the need for a conditional use permit.
F. SAMC Section 41-1 (Purpose) articulates the purpose and intent of the
City’s Zoning Code, that because of the necessity of segregating the location of
jmf 4-28-21
Ordinance No. NS-XXX
Page 2 of 8
residences, businesses, trades and industries; and regulating the use of buildings,
structures, and land; and regulating the location, height, bulk, and size of buildings
and structures, the size of yards and other open spaces; the city is divided into land-
use districts of such number, shape and area as may be considered best suited to
carry out these regulations and provide for their enforcement. The City’s zoning
regulations are considered necessary in order to: (a) encourage the most
appropriate use of land; (b) conserve and stabilize property value; (c) provide
adequate open spaces for light and air and to prevent and fight fires; (d) prevent the
undue concentration of population; (e) lessen congestion on streets and highways,
and (f) promote the health, safety and the general welfare of the people, all as part of
the General Plan of the City.
G. The absence of a Conditional Use Permit requirement for Light Processing
Facilities is inconsistent with the goals expressed by SAMC Section 41-1 (Purpose)
in that discretion by the Planning Commission and City Council cannot be exercised
to ensure that the location and operation of such facilities are compatible with the
scale, character, and nature of surrounding properties and neighborhoods as
specified in SAMC Sections 41-1 (a), (b), (e), and (f).
H. Heavy Processing Facilities are currently required to obtain approval of a
Conditional Use Permit and are only permitted in the City’s Heavy Industrial (M-2)
zoning district, pursuant to SAMC Section 41-489.5.
I. Due to the City’s age, development patterns, and past zoning practices,
there exist multiple areas of the City where Industrial (M-1 and M-2) zoning districts
directly abut residentially-zoned or used properties, including in the Delhi, Logan,
Cornerstone Village, Lacy, French Park, Artesia Pilar, Casa Bonita, and other
residential areas near Harbor Mixed-Use Transit Corridor Specific Plan (SP-2), and
also the Santa Anita and Mar-Les neighborhoods that are not part of an established
Neighborhood Association.
J. There currently exist 12 Light Processing Facilities in the City. Of these,
six are located in the Light Industrial (M-1) zoning district, five of which are operating
without a Conditional Use Permit. Out of the 12 light processing facilities, 11 are
within 1,000 feet of property zoned or used for residential purposes.
K. Due to the nature of their operations, Light Processing Facilities often
operate in outdoor settings, creating dust, noise, odor, and negative aesthetic
impacts on surrounding properties and neighborhoods that generate calls for code
enforcement and police services. Since 2010, the Code Enforcement Division has
received and reviewed 48 complaints for such facilities. The nature of these
complaints includes unpermitted storage and construction; sanitation, health, or
safety concerns; operating beyond approved operations or operating standards
specified by the SAMC; outdoor business activity; debris, trash, and litter; graffiti;
homeless encampments; and unpermitted or excess signage.
jmf 4-28-21

L. The amendments proposed by this Urgency Ordinance are consistent with
numerous Goals and Policies of the existing General Plan. These include:
1. Land Use Element: Goals 1 (Promote a balance of land uses to address basic
community needs), 3 (Preserve and improve the character and integrity of
neighborhoods), and 5 (Ensure that the impacts of development are
mitigated);
2. Noise Element: Goal 1 (Prevent significant increases in noise levels in the
community and minimize the adverse effects of currently-existing noise
sources);
3. Public Safety Element: Goal 1 (Preserve a safe and secure environment for
all Santa Ana residents and workers); and
4. Urban Design Element: Goals 1 (Improve the physical appearance of the City
through development of districts that project a sense of place, positive
community image, and quality environment) and 2 (Improve the physical
appearance of districts through development that is proportional and
aesthetically related to its district setting).
M. The City is in the process of comprehensively updating its General Plan.
Proposed new or updated Elements of the General Plan include Community,
Economic Prosperity, Noise, Safety, Land Use, and Urban Design. These proposed
new or updated Elements contain draft policies that have been identified and
thoroughly reviewed by members of the Santa Ana community through surveys,
workshops, meetings, and public hearings. These draft policies are intended to
improve and maintain a high quality of life for residents, businesses, and visitors of
Santa Ana and address deleterious land uses such as Processing Facilities, both
Light and Heavy, in the City.
N. If Light Processing Facilities remain a use permitted in the Industrial (M-1
and M-2) zoning districts without a conditional use permit, they will pose a serious
threat to the public interest, health, safety and welfare for the following reasons:
1. Such uses may continue to locate in the City’s Industrial zoning (M-1 and M-
2) districts without appropriate and thorough review by the City’s Planning
Commission and City Council. Such uses would remain subject to the City’s
administrative review process for administrative development projects,
pursuant to Article V, Division 3 of Chapter 41 of the SAMC. This
administrative review process ensures consistency with adopted development
standards and design guidelines, but (1) does not allow the City to evaluate
each submitted application for consistency with surrounding properties and
neighborhoods, as well as the General Plan, and to therefore recommend
approval or denial of such applications subject to a discretionary review
jmf 4-28-21
Ordinance No. NS-XXX
Page 4 of 8
process, and (2) prevents the Planning Commission and City Council from
imposing conditions of approval to ensure compatible and harmonious
operations of such facilities with surrounding properties and neighborhoods.
2. Operations typical of Light Processing Facilities, which include preparation of
material for efficient shipment, or to an end-user's specifications, by such
means as baling, briquetting, compacting, flattening, grinding, crushing,
mechanical sorting, shredding, cleaning, and remanufacturing, are known to
have detrimental effects on surrounding properties due to the noise, odor,
vibration, vermin infestation, visual, and traffic impacts caused by inbound
and outbound truck movements to and from such facilities. The absence of a
Conditional Use Permit requirement for such facilities severely circumscribes
the City’s ability, through its administrative review process, to impose
conditions on such operations that would otherwise protect the health,
welfare, and safety of residents and visitors to properties abutting or in the
vicinity of Light Processing Facilities.
O. Prevention of detrimental impacts to residents, the public interest, health,
safety and welfare requires the immediate enactment of this Urgency Ordinance.
The absence of this Urgency Ordinance will create a serious threat to the orderly
and effective implementation of any code amendments, General Plan amendments
or specific plan amendments which may be adopted by the City. Light Processing
Facilities permitted by-right may be in conflict with or frustrate other provisions of the
SAMC intended to guarantee or preserve the public peace, health, or safety.
Moreover, permitting such facilities without requiring a Conditional Use Permit would
create impacts on the public health, safety and welfare that the City Council, in
adopting this ordinance, has found to be unacceptable.
P. The Request for Council Action for this ordinance dated May 4, 2021 and
duly signed by the Executive Director of the Planning and Building Agency shall, by
this reference, be incorporated herein, and together with this ordinance, any
amendments or supplements, and oral testimony constitute the necessary findings
for this ordinance.
Q. The City Council finds, determines and declares that the current and
immediate threat to the public health, safety and welfare of the city and its citizens
necessitates the immediate enactment of the ordinance. The facts constituting such
urgency are set forth in paragraphs A through O of this ordinance.
R. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana intends that nothing in this
article shall be deemed to conflict with State or Federal law, nor to otherwise permit
any activity that is prohibited under the California Beverage Container Recycling &
Litter Reduction Act or other applicable law.
jmf 4-28-21

Section 2. The City Council finds and determines that this ordinance is not
subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections
15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a
direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, as there is
no possibility it will have a significant effect on the environment and it is not a "project",
as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines.
Section 3. Pursuant to Santa Ana City Charter Sections 415 and 417, this
Ordinance is declared by the City Council to be necessary as an emergency measure to
protect and preserve the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the City of Santa
Ana and will become effective immediately if passed by the affirmative votes of at least
two-thirds (2/3) of the members of the City Council.
