C. The Project Site has a General Plan land use designation of District Center – High (“DC-5”) and is located within the Transit Node South (“TNS”) district of the Harbor Mixed-Use Transit Corridor Specific Plan (“SP-2”). D. Subdivision requests are governed by Chapter 34 and Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”) and the California Subdivision Map Act (“SMA”). E. Pursuant to Section 34-127 of the SAMC, approval of a TTM application by the Planning Commission is required for projects proposing to create four or more parcels. F. The City previously certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”), adopted a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations, and approved the 2014 Harbor Resolution No. 2024-05 Page 2 of 9 Boulevard Mixed-Use Transit Corridor Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (SCH No. 2013061027) on October 21, 2014 (Resolution No. 2014- 069) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). G. Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15162, a lead agency shall consider whether additional CEQA review is required when considering a subsequent discretionary approval for a project for which an EIR was certified. H. The Planning Commission has independently reviewed and considered the previously certified EIR and other documents in the record before it. I. On March 25, 2024, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana held a duly-noticed public hearing on TTM No. 2024-01. J. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana determines that the following findings, in accordance with Section 66473.5 and 66474 of the SMA and Section 34-127 of the SAMC, which must be established in order to approve TTM No. 2024-01, have been established: 1. The proposed project and its design and improvements are consistent with the General Plan land use designation and are otherwise consistent with all other Elements of the General Plan. The Project supports several goals and policies of the General Plan. Specifically, the Project is consistent with Economic Prosperity Element (EP) Policy EP-3.4 which encourages the development of “complete communities” that provide a range of housing, services, amenities, and transportation options that support the retention and attraction of skilled workforce and employment. Goal 1 of the Land Use Element (LU) encourages projects that improve quality of life and respects the existing community. Policy LU-1.2 supports innovative development policies to expand homeownership opportunities at all income levels. Policy LU-1.6 encourages residential mixed-use development, within the City’s District Centers, Urban Neighborhoods, and adjacent to high quality transit. Policy LU-2.2 encourages the development of a range of commercial uses to capture a greater share of local spending and that offer a range of employment opportunities. Policy LU-2.5 encourages infill mixed-use development at all ranges of affordability to reduce vehicle miles traveled, improve jobs/housing balance, and promote social interaction. Policy LU-4.7 encourages the development of mixed-income developments with mixed housing types to create inclusive communities and economically diverse neighborhoods. Policy UD-1.1 of the Urban Design Element (UD) requires that all developments feature high quality design, materials, finishes, and Resolution No. 2024-05 Page 3 of 9 construction. Policy UD-2.2 encourages buffers and other urban design strategies to encourage computability of new development with the scale, bulk, and pattern of existing development. Lastly Policy HE-2.5 of the Housing Element (HE) encourages the creation of higher intensity, mixed-use urban villages and pedestrian-oriented experiences that access and support the office centers, commercial services, and cultural activities within District Centers and Urban Neighborhood designated areas. Policy HE-2.5 supports diverse types, prices, and sizes of housing and Policy HE- 2.6 supports excellence in architecture design through the use of materials and colors, building treatments, landscaping, open space, parking, and environmentally sensitive building and design practices. 2. The proposed project conforms to all applicable requirements of the zoning and subdivision codes as well as other applicable City ordinances. The Project is consistent with the development standards specified within SP-2, including land use, height, minimum development site area, building frontages, private/common open space, building setbacks, and parking and access. The Project is a mixed-use development that has been well designed to fit within the TNS District. Further, the access and egress for the Project has been thoroughly review by the Public Works Agency for compliance with all applicable regulations. 3. The project site is physically suitable for the type and density of the proposed project. The Project Site is physically suitable for the type and density of the Project. There are no physical constraints on the site that would preclude development. The Project Site consists of approximately 1.56 acres of land and is physically suitable for the Project. The lot size, density, width, and lot coverage are consistent with the TNS development standards. 4. The design and improvements of the proposed project will not cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injuries to fish or wildlife of their habitat. The design and improvements of the Project will not cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish and wildlife or their habitat. The Project is located in an urbanized area, and there are no known fish or wildlife populations existing on the Project site. Therefore, the subdivision will not cause any substantial environmental Resolution No. 2024-05 Page 4 of 9 damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish and wildlife or their habitat. 5. The design or improvements of the proposed project will not cause serious public health problems. The design or improvements of the Project will not cause serious health problems. The subdivision will not have any detrimental effects upon the general public. The property will include necessary utilities and infrastructure improvements as required by the SAMC and SMA. 6. The design or improvements of the proposed project will not conflict with easements necessary for public access through or use, of property within the proposed project. The design and improvements of the Project will not conflict with easements necessary for public access or use of the property within the Project. In addition, the CC&Rs will ensure reciprocal access rights and maintenance agreements between properties. Section 2. 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, and other and 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 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 3. The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the information contained in the certified EIR and all supporting documentation, copies of which are on file at the Planning Department and are incorporated by reference as though set forth fully herein. Based on this review, the Planning Commission finds that any comments received regarding Project have been examined and determined to not Resolution No. 2024-05 Page 5 of 9 modify the significant conclusions of the EIR. The Planning Commission further finds that no additional feasible mitigation measures within the City’s authority are necessary to reduce the environmental impacts of the Project, because all impacts of the Project are either less than significant, will be mitigated to a level of less than significant through compliance with the existing mitigation, or remain significant and unavoidable even with the imposition all of feasible mitigation and all applicable mitigation measures, attached hereto as Exhibit B applied to the certified EIR and will be applied to the Project. Finally, based on the substantial evidence set forth in the record, including but not limited to the certified EIR, the Planning Commission finds that none of the conditions triggering the need for subsequent environmental review have occurred. Specifically, the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent environmental review is required pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 because: a. No substantial changes are proposed by the Project which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; b. No substantial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is being undertaken which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant, environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; and c. No new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified, shows that: (i) either the Project will have one or more new significant effects; (ii) significant effects of modifications to the Project examined in the EIR will be substantially more severe; (iii) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the Project, but the City declined to adopt the measure or alternative; or (iv) mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the City declines to adopt the measure or alternative. Section 4. The Planning Commission directs staff to file a Notice of Determination with the County Clerk’s Office and with the State Clearinghouse within five (5) working days of adoption of this Resolution. Section 5. This Resolution shall not be effective unless and until the Planning Commission Resolution for Site Plan Review No. 2024-01 is adopted and becomes effective. If said Resolution is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise does not go into effect for any reason, then this Resolution shall be null and void and have no further force and effect. Section 6. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana, after conducting the public hearing, hereby approves TTM No. 2024-01, as conditioned in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein for the Project at the Project Site, and as illustrated and attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit B.

Of the 183 total units proposed, 15% (28 units) would be designated as low-income housing. The residential and retail uses would wrap around a four-level parking structure, consisting of two subterranean levels, one street/ground level, and a second above-ground level, and provide a total of 333 standard parking spaces. The Project site, which is currently vacant, is located on the north side of I st Street, between Harbor Boulevard and Figueroa Street, at IO I North Harbor Boulevard in the City of Santa Ana, California. The Project site exists within a Specific Plan district regulated by the Harbor Mixed Use Transit Corridor Plan; specifically, the South Transit Node District, which is comprised of the properties surrounding the Bravo Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) stations at Harbor Boulevard and 1st Street, and at Harbor Boulevard and McFadden Avenue. The South Transit Node generally anticipates three- to six-story buildings within the District, with the flexibility to allow IO stories, and has an emphasis on mixed-use development. Based on this, the Project, as proposed with nine stories and a mix of uses, is consistent with the land use plan for the South Transit Node District the Project site is located in. 1.1 Scope of Work Based on close coordination with City staff, and staying consistent with the City of Santa Ana Traffic Impact Study Guidelines (September 20 I 9), this report presents a non-CEQA transportation assessment, including an inventory of existing characteristics and traffic volumes during the AM and PM peak commute periods at key locations within the study area, forecasts of vehicular traffic anticipated to be generated by the Project, evaluation of potential non-CEQA impacts of Project generated trips on the surrounding street system under Year 2028 conditions (i.e., the anticipated completion year for the Project), and site access and internal circulation analysis. As described in the City's traffic impact study guidelines, this report also provides a CEQA assessment (Project screening) of VMT, active transportation, and public transit. In addition, the last section of this report presents the parking analysis and Parking Management Plan (PMP) prepared for the Project.

Of the 183 total units proposed, 15% (28 units) would be designated as low-income housing. The residential and retail uses would wrap around a four-level parking structure, consisting of two subterranean levels, one street/ground level, and a second above-ground level, and provide a total of333 standard parking spaces. As presented previously, Figure 1-1 is the Vicinity Map, which shows the general location of the Project and surrounding street system. Figure 2-1 is an existing aerial photograph of the Project site. The Project is expected to be completed and fully occupied by Year 2028. As part of the Project-specific improvements planned at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and I st Street (Intersection No. 2) previously approved by the City, the Project will be adding a right-tum pocket (with a total length of 213 feet, comprised of 186 feet of storage length, and 27 feet of transition length) along 1st Street on the westbound approach of the intersection. 2.1 Site Access Access to the Project will be provided via one (I) right-tum in/out only driveway on Harbor Boulevard and two (2) driveways restricted to left-turns/right-turns in, and right-turns out, on Figueroa Street. 2.2 Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation Sidewalks are provided on both sides of the street throughout most of the City. Crosswalks, pedestrian push buttons, and pedestrian indication lights are provided at all signalized intersections adjacent to the Project site. The proposed Project plans to retain this existing pedestrian infrastructure. The proposed Project will encourage walking by integrating pedestrian connections internally, as well as to nearby activities. Pedestrian circulation would be provided via existing public sidewalks along Harbor Boulevard, I st Street, and Figueroa Street within the vicinity of the Project. The proposed Project will protect the existing sidewalk along Project frontage on these roadways. The existing sidewalk system within the Project vicinity provides direct connectivity to the existing development located along major thoroughfares. Long-term bicycle storage for the residential and retail uses will be provided in two bike rooms, totaling 96 long-term bike spaces. An additional four ( 4) bicycle spaces will be provided for short term bicycle storage purposes. According to the City of Santa Ana Bikeway Master Plan, Class IV Cycle Tracks are planned on Harbor Boulevard and I st Street along the Project's frontage.

The following discussion provides a brief synopsis of these key area streets. The descriptions are based on an inventory of existing roadway conditions. Harbor Boulevard is generally a six-lane, divided roadway that borders the Project site to the west, oriented in the north-south direction that provides three northbound and three southbound travel lanes separated by a raised median. Harbor Boulevard will provide one (I) right-in/right-out driveway for the proposed Project. The posted speed limit on Harbor Boulevard is 40 miles per hour (mph). On-street parking is not permitted along this roadway in the vicinity of the project. The City of Santa Ana General Plan Circulation Element classifies Harbor Boulevard as a Major Arterial. Class II Buffered Bike Lanes are provided south of 1st Street in the vicinity of the project. Traffic signals control the study intersections of Harbor Boulevard at 5th Street and ]st Street. 1st Street is generally a six-lane, divided roadway that borders the Project site to the south, oriented in the east-west direction that provides three lanes in each direction separated by a TWL T striped median. The posted speed limit on I st Street is 40 mph. On-street parking is not permitted along this roadway in the vicinity of the project. The City of Santa Ana General Plan Circulation Element classifies 1st Street as a Major Arterial. Class II Buffered Bike Lanes are provided west of Harbor Boulevard in the vicinity of the project. 5th Street is generally a four-lane divided roadway east of Harbor Boulevard and a two-lane undivided roadway west of Harbor Boulevard, oriented in the east-west direction. The posted speed limit is 35 mph east of Harbor Boulevard and 30 mph west of Harbor Boulevard. On-street parking is only permitted on the north side of this roadway east of Harbor Boulevard in the vicinity of the project. The City of Santa Ana General Plan Circulation Element classifies 5th Street as a Secondary Arterial east of Harbor Boulevard and a Commuter west of Harbor Boulevard. Figueroa Street is a two-lane undivided roadway that borders the Project site to the east, oriented in the north-south direction. The prima facie speed limit is 25 mph and parking is permitted on both sides of the roadway. Figueroa Street will provide two (2) left-tum/right-turns in and right-tum out only driveways for the proposed Project. Figure 3-1 presents an inventory of the ex1stmg roadway conditions for the arterials and intersections evaluated in this report. This figure identifies the number of travel lanes for key arterials, as well as intersection configurations and controls for the key area study intersections. 3.2 Existing Traffic Volumes Two (2) key study intersections and one (1) key roadway segment have been identified as the locations at which to evaluate existing and future traffic operating conditions. Some portion of potential project-related traffic will pass through each of these intersections, and their analysis will reveal the potential need for Project-related circulation improvements.

The ICU technique is intended for signalized intersection analysis and estimates the volume to capacity (Y/C) relationship for an intersection based on the individual V/C ratios for key conflicting traffic movements. The ICU numerical value represents the percent signal (green) time, and thus capacity, required by existing and/or future traffic. It should be noted that the ICU methodology assumes uniform traffic distribution per intersection approach lane and optimal signal timing. Per City of Santa Ana requirements, the ICU calculations use a lane capacity of 1,700 vehicles per hour (vph) for through lanes and 1,600 vph for left-tum lanes and right-tum lanes. A clearance adjustment factor of 0.05 was added to each Level of Service calculation. The ICU value translates to a Level of Service (LOS) estimate, which is a relative measure of the intersection performance. The ICU value is the sum of the critical volume to capacity ratios at an intersection; it is not intended to be indicative of the LOS of each of the individual turning movements. The six qualitative categories of Level of Service have been defined along with the corresponding ICU value range and are shown in Table 3-1. 3.4.2 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) Method of Analysis (Unsignalized Intersections) The HCM unsignalized methodology for stop-controlled intersections was utilized for the analysis of the unsignalized intersections. This methodology estimates the average control delay for each of the subject movements and determines the level of service for each movement. For all-way stop controlled intersections, the overall average control delay measured in seconds per vehicle, and level of service is then calculated for the entire intersection. For one-way and two-way stop-controlled (minor street stop-controlled) intersections, this methodology estimates the worst side street delay, measured in seconds per vehicle and determines the level of service for that approach. The HCM control delay value translates to a Level of Service (LOS) estimate, which is a relative measure of the intersection performance. The six qualitative categories of Level of Service have been defined along with the corresponding HCM control delay value range, as shown in Table 3-2.

Occasionally drivers may have to wait through more than one red light; backups may develop behind turning vehicles. FAIR. Delays may be substantial during portions of the rush hours, but enough lower volume periods occur to permit clearing of developing lines, preventing excessive backups. POOR. Represents the most vehicles intersection approaches can accommodate; may be long lines of waiting vehicles through several signal cycles. FAILURE. Backups from nearby locations or on cross streets may restrict or prevent movement of vehicles out of the intersection approaches. Potentially very long delays with continuously increasing queue lengths. LLG Ref. 2-23-4737-1 First Harbor Mixed-Use Project, Santa Ana K;,--1700\2234737 • Fim H.11bor :,.fi��d Use.

Based on the above, the following summarizes the LOS required for each key study intersection: LOS "D" Requirements LOS "E" Requirements I.Harbor Boulevard at 5th Street 2.Harbor Boulevard at I st Street 3.5 Existing Level of Service Results Table 3-3 summarizes the existing peak hour service level calculations for the two (2) key study intersections based on existing traffic volumes and current street geometrics. Review of Table 3-3 indicates that all key study intersections currently operate at an acceptable level of service (LOS) during the AM and PM peak hours when compared to the LOS criteria defined in this report. Appendix B presents the ICU/LOS calculation worksheets for the two (2) key study intersections for the AM peak hour and PM peak hour.

Santa .\na Traffic Stud� 10-23-23 doc Exhibit D to Exhibit 2 4.0 TRAFFIC FORECASTS In order to estimate the traffic characteristics of the proposed Project, a multi-step process has been utilized. The first step is trip generation, which estimates the total arriving and departing traffic on a peak hour and daily basis. The traffic generation potential is forecast by applying the appropriate vehicle trip generation equations or rates to the Project development tabulation. The second step of the forecasting process is trip distribution, which identifies the origins and destinations of inbound and outbound Project traffic. These origins and destinations are typically based on demographics and existing/anticipated travel patterns in the study area. The third step is traffic assignment, which involves the allocation of Project traffic to study area streets and intersections. Traffic assignment is typically based on minimization of travel time, which may or may not involve the shortest route, depending on prevailing operating conditions and travel speeds. Traffic distribution patterns are indicated by general percentage orientation, while traffic assignment allocates specific volume forecasts to individual roadway links and intersection turning movements throughout the study area. With the forecasting process complete and Project traffic assigntiients developed, the effect of the proposed Project's added traffic is isolated by comparing operational (LOS) conditions at selected key intersections using expected future traffic volumes with and without forecast Project traffic. The need for site-specific and/or cumulative local area traffic improvements can then be evaluated. LINSCOTT, LAw&GREENSPAN, engineers 11 LLG Ref. 2-23-4737-1 First Harbor Mixed-Use Project, Santa Ana Exhibit D to Exhibit 2 4.1 Project Traffic Generation Traffic generation is expressed in vehicle trip ends, defined as one-way vehicular movements, either entering or exiting the generating land use. Generation equations and/or rates used in the traffic forecasting procedure are found in the 11 th Edition of Trip Generation, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (]TE) [Washington D.C., 2021]. The upper portion of Table 4-1 summarizes the trip generation rates used in forecasting the vehicular trips generated by the proposed Project. As shown in Table 4-1, !TE Land Use 221: Multifamily Housing Mid Rise and !TE Land Use 822: Strip Retail Plaza Less than 40K trip rates were used to forecast the trip generation potential of the proposed Project. The lower portion of Table 4-1 presents the project's forecast peak hour and daily traffic volumes, inclusive of applicable pass-by trip reductions. As shown on the bottom of Table 4-1, the proposed Project is forecast to generate approximately 1,575 daily trips, with I 00 trips (36 inbound, 64 outbound) produced in the AM peak hour and 131 trips (73 inbound, 58 outbound) produced in the PM peak hour on a "typical" weekday. Please note that trip generation for the proposed Project includes adjustments for pass-by as recommended by !TE. The pass-by reduction factors are based on a review of available information published in the 11 th Edition of Trip Generation, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (!TE), [Washington, D.C., 2021]. 4.2 Project Traffic Distribution and Assignment Figure 4-1 presents the traffic distribution pattern for the proposed Project. Project traffic volumes both entering and exiting the project site have been distributed and assigned to the adjacent street system based on the following considerations: ■ location of site access points in relation to the surrounding street system, ■the site's proximity to major traffic carriers and regional access routes, ■ physical characteristics of the circulation system such as lane channelization and presence oftraffic signals that affect travel patterns, ■presence of traffic congestion in the surrounding vicinity, and•ingress/egress availability at the project site, as well as allowance of "U-turn" movements at5th Street and 1st Street. The anticipated AM and PM peak hour project traffic volumes associated with the proposed Project are presented in Figures 4-2 and 4-3, respectively. Figure 4-3 also presents the daily Project traffic volumes. The traffic volume assignments presented in Figures 4-2 and 4-3 reflect the traffic distribution characteristics shown in Figure 4-1 and the traffic generation forecast presented in Table 4-1.

These forecast traffic conditions have been prepared to assess the potential effects of the Project upon the circulation system as it currently exists per the requirements of the City. This traffic volume scenario and the related intersection capacity analyses will identify the roadway improvements necessary to offset the Project, if any. Figures 4-4 and 4-5 present projected AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes at the two (2) key study intersections and three (3) Project driveways with the addition of the trips generated by the proposed Project to existing traffic volumes, respectively. Figure 4-5 also presents the Existing Plus Project daily traffic volumes. 4.4 Year 2028 Cumulative Base 4.4.1 Ambient Traffic Growth Horizon year, background traffic growth estimates have been calculated using an ambient traffic growth factor. The ambient traffic growth factor is intended to include unknown and future related projects in the study area, as well as account for regular growth in traffic volumes due to the development of projects outside the study area. The future growth in traffic volumes has been calculated at one percent (1.0%) per year. Applied to the Year 2023 existing traffic volumes, this factor results in a 5.0% growth in existing volumes to the near-term horizon year 2028. 4.4.2 Cumulative Projects In order to make a realistic estimate of future on-street conditions prior to implementation of the proposed Project, the status of other known development projects (related projects) within a two mile radius of the proposed project has been researched at the City of Santa Ana, City of Garden Grove, City of Fountain Valley and City of Westminster. With this information, the potential circulation effects of the proposed Project can be evaluated within the context of the cumulative impact of all ongoing development. Based on our research during the scoping process, there are nine (9) related projects in the City of Santa Ana and one (1) related project in the City of Garden Grove that are being processed for approval or to be constructed and fully operational within a two-mile radius of the proposed project site. These ten (10) related projects have been included as part of the cumulative background setting. Table 4-2 provides a brief description for each of the ten (10) related projects. Figure 4-6 graphically illustrates the location of the ten (10) related projects. These related projects are expected to generate vehicular traffic, which may affect the operating conditions of the key study intersections. Table 4-3 summarizes the trip generation potential for all ten (10) related projects on a daily and peak hour basis for a typical weekday. As shown, the related projects are expected to generate 4,705 daily trips, with 245 trips (103 inbound, 142 outbound) anticipated during the AM peak hour and 287 trips (162 inbound, 125 outbound) produced during the PM peak hour.

The previously discussed capacity analysis procedures were utilized to investigate the future volume-to-capacity relationships and LOS characteristics at each study intersection. The potential effect of the Project at each key intersection was then evaluated using LOS standards and thresholds summarized below. 5.1 LOS Standards and Thresholds 5.1.1 City of Santa Ana Based on the City of Santa Ana, the need for potential improvements will be assessed based on the following criteria: ■ Project traffic would cause an intersection currently operating at an acceptable peak hour Levelof Service (LOS) to operate at an unacceptable peak hour LOS. The City of Santa Ana considersLOS D to be the minimum acceptable LOS for all intersections, or •The project increases traffic demand by 1% of capacity (ICU increase� 0.01) if the intersectionalready operates at an unacceptable LOS. ■At unsignalized intersections, the project causes an intersection at LOS D or better to degrade toLOS EorF. 5.2 Traffic Analysis Scenarios The following scenarios are those for which volume/capacity calculations have been performed at the five (5) key intersections for existing plus project and near-term (Year 2028) traffic conditions: A.Existing Traffic Conditions; B.Existing Plus Project Traffic Conditions; C.Scenario (B) with Improvements, if necessary; D.Near-Term (Year 2028) Cumulative Traffic Conditions, E.Near-Term (Year 2028) Cumulative plus Project Traffic Conditions; F.Scenario (E) with Project-Related Mitigation, if necessary.

For the purposes of this study, it is assumed that the minimum time for one vehicle to complete the outbound right-tum movement and outbound left-tum movement is 7 seconds and IO seconds, respectively. These duration criteria were derived from empirical data collected by LLG from prior studies, and are considered conservative when compared against Table 405. IA of the Caltrans Highway Design Manual, which indicates a minimum of 6.5 seconds is required for a passenger vehicle to complete a right-tum from a stop, and a minimum of 8.5 seconds is required for a passenger vehicle to complete a left-tum from a stop when crossing three lanes. Table 6-2 presents a summary of the results from traffic gap observations/surveys performed in September 2023 for the westbound right-tum movement at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard at Project Driveway No. I, and the southbound right-tum movement at the intersection of Figueroa Street at I st Street. Table 6-2 indicates that based on the gap surveys, traffic gaps along northbound Harbor Boulevard and on westbound !st Street (that meet the duration criteria described previously) were observed to occur more frequently compared to the number of times a vehicle would be exiting the Project site using the driveway off Harbor Boulevard, or a vehicle exited/would be exiting from southbound Figueroa Street, to enter into/merge with the traffic stream already on Harbor Boulevard and I st Street. Based on these empirical results, it is reasonable to conclude that there would be an adequate number of available gaps in traffic to accommodate right-turning vehicles from the Project site onto Harbor Boulevard, and from southbound Figueroa Street onto westbound I st Street. Table 6-3 summarizes the results of the traffic gap analysis for the southbound left-tum movement at the intersection of Figueroa Street at 1st Street. Table 6-3 indicates that based on the gap surveys, traffic gaps along !st Street (that meet the duration criteria described previously) were observed to occur more frequently compared to the number of times a vehicle exited/would be exiting from southbound Figueroa Street to enter into/merge with the traffic stream already on I st Street. Based on these empirical results, it is reasonable to conclude that there would be an adequate number of available gaps in traffic to accommodate left-turning vehicles from southbound Figueroa Street onto eastbound I st Street. As described previously, Project-specific improvements are planned for implementation at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and !st Street (Intersection No. 2) that were previously approved by the City. As part of those improvements, the Project will be adding a right-tum pocket (with a total length of 213 feet, comprised of 186 feet of storage length, and 27 feet of transition length) along I st Street on the westbound approach of the intersection. The additional roadway capacity on westbound 1st Street due to the provision of the future right-tum pocket could help increase the number of available traffic gaps that would facilitate southbound right-turns from Figueroa Street onto I st Street.

Curb return radii have been confirmed and are adequate for service/delivery trucks and trash trucks. The circulation on each level of the parking structure is adequate, with sufficient sight distance along the drive aisles. 6.3 Sight Distance Evaluation At intersections and/or Project driveways, a substantially clear line of sight should be maintained between the driver of a vehicle waiting at the crossroad and the driver of an approaching vehicle. Adequate time must be provided for the waiting vehicle to either cross all lanes of through traffic, cross the nearby lanes and turn left, or turn right, without requiring through traffic to radically alter their speed. A sight distance evaluation has been performed for the three (3) Project driveways located along Harbor Boulevard and Figueroa Street, as well as the intersection of Figueroa Street and I st Street. The Sight Distance Evaluation prepared for the Project driveways is based on the criteria and procedures set forth by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in the State's Highway Design Manual (HDM). Corner sight distance was utilized for the evaluation. Corner sight distance is defined in the Caltrans HDM to be the distance required by the driver of a vehicle, traveling at a given speed, to maneuver their vehicle and avoid an object without radically altering their speed. Line of sight for corner sight distance is to be determined from a 3 ½ foot height at the location of the driver of a vehicle on a minor road to a 4¼ foot object height in the center of the approaching lane of the major road. Based on the criteria set forth in Table 405.IA of the Caltrans HDM and a posted speed limit of 40 mph on Harbor Boulevard, a corner sight distance of 382 feet for right-turning vehicles is required for Project Driveway I. Based on the criteria set forth in Table 405.IA of the Caltrans HDM and a prima facie speed limit of 25 mph on Figueroa Street, a corner sight distance of239 feet is required for right-turning vehicles at Project Driveways 2 and 3. Based on the criteria set forth in Table 405.IA of the Caltrans HDM and a prima facie speed limit of 40 mph on 1st Street, a corner sight distance of 382 feet is required for right-turning vehicles. For left-turning vehicles, a corner sight distance of 434 feet is required when looking to the left and 492 feet is required when looking to the right. Figure 6-1 presents the results of the sight distance evaluation for right-turning vehicles at Project Driveway I based on the application of the corner sight distance criteria. The figure illustrates the limited use areas. As shown, the sight lines at the proposed Project driveway are expected to be adequate as long as obstructions within the sight triangles are minimized.

The Highway Capacity Manual 6th Edition (HCM 6) methodology was utilized to confirm the adequacy of vehicular stacking for the aforementioned turn lanes located at the intersections of Harbor Boulevard and 5th Street, and Harbor Boulevard and I st Street. Tables 7-1 and 7-2 present the queueing results. Existing Plus Project and Year 2028 Plus Project traffic conditions presume the Project-specific improvement (i.e., addition of an exclusive right-turn pocket on the westbound approach) at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and I st Street. Tables 7-1 and 7-2 indicate that adequate queue storage length is currently provided for the northbound left-turn/"U-turn" lane located at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and 5th Street based on the anticipated maximum 95th percentile queue length under Existing, Existing plus Project, Year 2028 Cumulative Base, and Year 2028 Cumulative plus Project traffic conditions. Although the existing and future 95th percentile queues reported for the southbound left-turn/"U turn" and westbound left-turn movements at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and I st Street exceed the existing storage lengths for the respective movements, these are existing queue storage deficiencies not caused by the Project. The 95th percentile queue lengths are conservative estimates of potential queues because, given 30 signal cycles per hour (based on a cycle length of 120 seconds), the 95th percentile queue might form in only 1.5 cycles during the peak hour. It should be noted further that the Project-generated traffic that could be added to the southbound and westbound left-turn movements are nominal (i.e., southbound left-turn: 15 AM peak hour trips, 36 PM peak hour trips; westbound left-turn: 11 AM peak hour trips, 16 PM peak hour trips), corresponding to a maximum of one vehicle on a given cycle. Tables 7-1 and 7-2 indicate that adequate queue storage length would be provided for the planned westbound right-turn pocket at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and J st Street based on the anticipated maximum 95th percentile queue length under Existing plus Project, and Year 2028 Cumulative plus Project (during the AM peak hour only) traffic conditions. Although the future 95th percentile queue length of 232 feet during the PM peak hour would exceed the proposed pocket length of 213 feet, there is an additional 27 feet of queue storage on westbound I'' Street between the end of the future right-turn pocket and Figueroa Street that would result in a total storage length of240 feet, which could accommodate the forecasted queue length of232 feet.

The CMP requires that a traffic analysis be conducted for any project generating 2,400 or more daily trips, or 1,600 or more daily trips for projects that directly access the CMP Highway System (HS). As noted in Section 4.0 of this traffic study, the proposed Project is forecast to generate approximately 1,575 daily trip-ends, and therefore, does not require a CMP traffic analysis. The CMPHS includes specific roadways, which include State Highways and Super Streets, which are now known as Smart Streets. Therefore, the CMP traffic analysis requirements relate to the potential circulation effects only on the specified CMPHS. The intersection of Harbor Boulevard and I st Street (Intersection No. 2) is a CMP intersection, which would have required evaluation if the CMP threshold was exceeded. It should be noted that the City of Santa Ana LOS criteria and evaluation identified in Section 5.0 of this report is consistent with the Orange County CMP traffic analysis guidelines. The level of service results for the intersection are summarized in Tables 5-1 and 5-2 and indicate that the proposed Project will not require improvements at this location.

The City of Santa Ana has adopted criteria for evaluating VMT impacts under CEQA, and they are presented in the City of Santa Ana Traffic Impact Study Guidelines (September 2019). There are three types of screening methods to effectively screen projects from project-level assessment: (I) Transit Priority Area (TPA) Screening; (2) Low VMT Area Screening; (3) Project Type Screening. Projects located within a TP A may be presumed to have a less-than-significant impact on VMT absent substantial evidence to the contrary. A TPA is defined as a half-mile area around an existing "major transit stop" (i.e., a site containing an existing rail transit station, ferry terminal served by bus or rail transit service, or the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoon peak commute periods), or an existing stop along a "high-quality transit corridor" (i.e., a corridor with fixed route bus service with service intervals no longer than 15 minutes during peak commute hours). To identify if a project is in a TPA, Appendix A (Santa Ana Transit Priority Areas) of the City's guidelines is reviewed. Residential and office projects located within a low VMT-generating area may be presumed to have a less-than-significant impact absent substantial evidence to the contrary. In addition, other employment-related and mixed-use land use projects may qualify for the use of screening if the project can reasonably be expected to generate VMT per resident, per worker, or per service population that is similar to the existing land uses in the low VMT area. To identify if a project is in a TPA, Appendix B (VMT/SP in Santa Ana as Compared to Orange County Average) and Appendix C (Santa Ana Development Areas that Cannot Be Screened) of the City's guidelines are used. Some project types have been identified as having the presumption of a less-than-significant impact absent substantial evidence to the contrary because their uses are local serving in nature, including local-serving retail uses with less than 50,000 SF, and projects generating less than 110 net daily trips. Based on the application of the City's screening criteria described above, and using Appendices A, B, and C in the City's guidelines, it was determined that the Project is located in a TPA (as shown on Figure 10-1) and is located in a low-VMT generating area (as shown on Figures 10-2 and 10-3); and is therefore screened out from further VMT project-level assessment because it can be presumed to have less-than-significant impact on VMT. 10.2 Active Transportation and Public Transit Screening Analysis Even though the City's traffic impact analysis guidelines do not specify the need for Active Transportation and Public Transit Screening Analysis, potential impacts to active transportation LINSCOTT, LAw&GREENSPAN, engineers 41 LLG Ref. 2-23-4737-1 First Harbor Mixed-Use Development.

Sidewalks are provided on both sides of the street throughout most of the City. Crosswalks, pedestrian push buttons, and pedestrian indication lights are provided at all signalized intersections adjacent to the Project site. The proposed Project plans to retain this existing pedestrian infrastructure. The proposed Project will encourage walking by integrating pedestrian connections internally, as well as to nearby activities. Pedestrian circulation would be provided via existing public sidewalks along Harbor Boulevard, 1st Street, and Figueroa Street within the vicinity of the Project. The proposed Project will protect the existing sidewalk along Project frontage on these roadways. The existing sidewalk system within the Project vicinity provides direct connectivity to the existing development located along major thoroughfares. Long-term bicycle storage for the residential and retail uses will be provided in two bike rooms, totaling 96 long-term bike spaces. An additional four ( 4) bicycle spaces will be provided for short term bicycle storage purposes. According to the City of Santa Ana Bikeway Master Plan, Class IV Cycle Tracks are planned on Harbor Boulevard and I st Street along the Project's frontage. Figure 1-1 illustrates the location of public transit stops near the Project site, and Section 3.3 (Existing Public Transportation) describes the public transit-rich setting for the Project. Based on the above, the proposed Project would not have an impact on the existing multimodal network; specifically, it would not: (I) conflict with a plan, ordinance, or policy related to bicycle, pedestrian, and public transit; (2) substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature; or (3) result in inadequate emergency access. The proposed site plan for the Project will maintain existing sidewalks and access to public transit, construct new pedestrian connections on site and with adjoining uses, and meet City design standards regarding site access, multimodal connectivity within the internal site circulation system, emergency access, and on-site parking.

Table 11-1 presents a summary of the parking ratios applied to calculate the City Code requirements for residents, residential guests, and non residential/retail uses. As indicated on Table 11-1, the application of Specific Plan parking ratios to the various Project components results in a total City Code requirement of 313 spaces. Comparing this Code requirement against the proposed parking supply of 333 standard spaces results in a Code-based surplus of 20 spaces. Based on this, the Project's parking supply provisions would be adequate in meeting the City Code requirements for the Project. 11.2 Parking Management Plan (PMP) A PMP defines how parking for a development would be managed and what measures would be implemented to assure that parking needs in the aggregate and in localized sub-areas would be adequately served. A TOM Program identifies measures that could potentially reduce parking needs through the provision of physical and/or operational improvements that promote the use of alternative modes of travel (i.e., public transit, bicycle, walking). Recommendations for PMP measures are provided in this study to ensure competing parking needs for all Project tenants, guests, and employees are adequately managed and controlled to facilitate parking efficiency. Implementation of PMP measures will help ensure that the Project's parking supply will be sufficient, convenient/accessible, responsive to varying demand, and provide parking contingencies in meeting the parking needs of all users (i.e., residential, retail). It is recommended that when the Property Owner and/or Property Management Company deems it necessary, the following key Parking Management Strategies be implemented by the Property Owner and/or Property Management Company: •The PMP should identify where the retail/commercial employees park within the site. •The PMP should identify where location of short-term parking spaces for service retail usesand/or food uses (take-out/curb side service, etc.). •The PMP should direct residents to park in their assigned spaces and provide parking toaccommodate resident guest parking needs. •The PMP should restrict vehicles from exceeding the time restriction on any short-term parking. •The PMP should provide rules of conduct for tenants and guests to abide by. Strict enforcementshall be adhered to. LINSCOTT, LAW & GREENSPAN, engineers 43 LLG Ref. 2-23-4737-1 First Harbor Mixed-Use Development, Santa Ana N'·.4700\2234737-Firn Harbor M,x�d L'se.

Retail/Commercial Component 1.The Property Owner/Property Management Company will implement a reciprocal parkingprogram to ensure the pool of parking for the retail/commercial component and guest of the residential component is available to be "shared". 2.The Property Owner/Property Management Company will work with tenants of the retail uses toimplement an employee parking program, with the goal of providing convenient and accessibleshopping experience for the customers of the retail uses, and to leave the most desirable parkingspaces within the parking structure for use by customers. The location of designated employeeparking spaces will be developed in collaboration between Property Owner/PropertyManagement Company and the tenants. The employee parking spaces will be identified with awhite or yellow circle, and/or other signage recommended by the the Property Owner/PropertyManagement Company. It is noted that these spaces will be open for customer use. 3.The Property Owner/Property Management Company will work with tenants of the retail uses toidentify the need for "short term/time restricted spaces" on an as need basis, dependent on theneeds of the proposed retail and/or food use. These short-term spaces will most likely bedesignated along the internal roadways. The short-term spaces may be used for "curbside/takeout" and/or for service retail-type users. The number and location of spaces will be determinedby Property Owner/Property Management Company and the potential tenants. 4.If the Property Owner/Property Management Company determines additional parking is neededto meet the parking requirements of the retail/commercial component of the Project and/ordesires to provide "enhanced customer service", the Property Owner/Property ManagementCompany shall implement a valet/valet assist program. The hours of operation of the valet/valetassist program will be determined by the Property Owner/Property Management Company, andsubject to actual demand, may include weekdays and weekends, between the period 11 :00 AMand 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM, to enhance the customer experience accommodate the"lunch time" and "dinner" crowd of the proposed restaurant/food uses.

LINSCOTT, LAW & GREENSPAN, engineers 47 LLG Ref 2-23-4737-1 First Harbor Mixed•Use Development, Santa Ana Exhibit D to Exhibit 2 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS •Project Description -The First Harbor Mixed-Use Project proposes to develop a nine-story building with 183 multifamily residential units (including studios, I-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3- bedroom units) and 15,182 SF of retail on the ground floor. Of the 183 total units proposed, 15% (28 units) would be designated as low-income housing. The residential and retail uses would wrap around a four-level parking structure, consisting of two subterranean levels, one street/ground level, and a second above-ground level, and provide a total of 333 standard parking spaces. As presented previously, Figure 1-1 is the Vicinity Map, which shows the general location of the Project and surrounding street system. Figure 2-1 is an existing aerial photograph of the Project site. The Project is expected to be completed and fully occupied by Year 2028. As part of the Project-specific improvements planned at the intersection of Harbor Boulevardand !st Street (Intersection No. 2) previously approved by the City, the Project will be adding aright-turn pocket (with a total length of213 feet, comprised of 186 feet of storage length, and 27feet of transition length) along I st Street on the westbound approach of the intersection. •Study Scope -The following two (2) key study intersections and one (I) key roadway segment were selected for detailed peak hour level of service analyses under Existing Traffic Conditions,Existing Plus Project Traffic Conditions, Year 2028 Cumulative Traffic Conditions and Year2028 Cumulative plus Project.

The two (2) key study intersections are forecast to operate at LOS D or better during the weekday AM and PM peak hours with theaddition of Project traffic. •Year 2028 Cumulative Traffic Conditions Plus Project -The traffic associated with theproposed Project will not require improvements at any of the two (2) key study intersections,when compared to the LOS standards and thresholds specified in this report. The two (2) keystudy intersections are forecast to continue to operate at acceptable levels of service (LOS D orbetter) during the AM and PM peak hours with the addition of Project traffic to Year 2028Cumulative traffic conditions. ■ Site Access Assessment -Harbor Boulevard at Project Driveway I and Figueroa Street at ProjectDriveways 2 and 3 are forecast to operate at LOS D or better during the AM peak hour and PMpeak hour. As such, Project access will be adequate. Motorists entering and exiting the Projectsite will be able to do so without undue congestion. Furthermore, the anticipated queues at eachof the Project driveways are anticipated to be no more than one (I) vehicle during the AM andPM peak hours. To supplement the level of service analysis, a gap analysis has been completed along Harbor Boulevard as well as at the intersection of Figueroa Street at I st Street to determine if the existing gaps along the main arterial roadways are considered adequate to accommodate ingress and egress at the proposed Project driveways. The gap analysis indicates that there are more gaps than vehicles exiting, therefore, it can be concluded that both right-turning and left-turning vehicles will have adequate gaps along Harbor Boulevard and/or I st Street when exiting the Project site. •Sight Distance Evaluation -Sight lines for the southbound movements at the intersection ofFigueroa Street at l't Street, as well as at Project Driveway 1, along Harbor Boulevard, areexpected to be adequate. Sight lines at Project Driveways 2 and 3, along Figueroa Street, will beobstructed by vehicles parked on-street along Figueroa Street. As a result, it is recommended torestrict on-street parking along the Project frontage of Figueroa Street to help facilitate andenhance visibility for outbound vehicles. •Queuing Assessment -Adequate queue storage length is currently provided for the northboundleft-turn/"U-turn" lane located at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and 5t h Street based on theanticipated maximum 95th percentile queue length under Existing, Existing plus Project, Year2028 Cumulative and Year 2028 Cumulative plus Project traffic conditions. Although the existing and future 95th percentile queues reported for the southbound left-turn/"U turn" and westbound left-turn movements at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and 1 st Street exceed the existing storage lengths for the respective movements, these are existing queue storage deficiencies not caused by the Project. The 95th percentile queue lengths are LINSCOTT, LJ\w&GREENSPAN, engineers 49 LLG Ref. 2-23-4737-1 First Harbor Mixed-Use Development, Santa Ana I< ,-1700t:!1j 1737 -First H:1rbo1 \li>.ed l 'se.

It should be noted further that the Project-generated traffic that could be added to the southbound and westbound left-tum movements are nominal (i.e., southbound left-tum: 15 AM peak hour trips, 36 PM peak hour trips; westbound left-tum: 11 AM peak hour trips, 16 PM peak hour trips), corresponding to a maximum of one vehicle on a given cycle. Adequate queue storage length would be provided for the planned westbound right-tum pocket at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and I st Street based on the anticipated maximum 95th percentile queue length under Existing plus Project, and Year 2028 Cumulative plus Project (during the AM peak hour only) traffic conditions. Although the future 95th percentile queue length of 232 feet during the PM peak hour would exceed the proposed pocket length of 213 feet, there is an additional 27 feet of queue storage on westbound I st Street between the end of the future right-tum pocket and Figueroa Street that would result in a total storage length of 240 feet, which could accommodate the forecasted queue length of 232 feet. Based on the considerations above, improvements are not recommended. ■Existing Plus Project Roadway Segment Evaluation -The roadway segment at Figueroa Street,between 5th Street and I st Street is forecast to continue to operate at an acceptable service levelon a daily basis with the addition of Project generated traffic to existing traffic and will notrequire improvements when compared to the LOS standards and thresholds specified in thisreport. •Year 2028 Cumulative Plus Project Roadway Segment Evaluation -The roadway segment atFigueroa Street, between 5th Street and I st Street is forecast to continue to operate at anacceptable service level on a daily basis with the addition of Project generated traffic in the Year2028 and will not require improvements when compared to the LOS standards and thresholdsspecified in this report. •VMT Screening Assessment -Based on the application of the City's screening criteria, andusing Appendices A, B, and C in the City's guidelines, it was determined that the Project islocated in a TP A and is in a low-VMT generating area; and is therefore screened out from furtherVMT project-level assessment because it can be presumed to have less-than-significant impactonVMT. ■Parking Analysis and PMP -The application of Specific Plan parking ratios to the variousProject components results in a total City Code requirement of 313 spaces. Comparing this Coderequirement against the proposed parking supply of 333 standard spaces results in a Code-basedsurplus of 20 spaces. Based on this, the Project's parking supply provisions would be adequatein meeting the City Code requirements for the Project.
