GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 65858
WHEREAS, the City of Santa Ana has the police power pursuant to Article XI,
section 7 of the California Constitution, to make and enforce ordinances to regulate the
use of land within its jurisdictional boundaries; and
WHEREAS, Government Code Section 65858 expressly authorizes the City
Council, in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare, to adopt an interim
urgency ordinance prohibiting a use that is in conflict with a contemplated general plan,
specific plan, or zoning proposal that the legislative body, planning commission, or the
planning department is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable
time, provided that the urgency measure shall require a four -fifths vote of the legislative
body for adoption, and shall be of no further force and effect forty-five (45) days from its
date of adoption, unless duly extended; and
WHEREAS, on April 16, 2024, the City Council adopted a Moratorium on the
approval, commencement, establishment, relocation or expansion of industrial uses
within Specific Development No. 84 ("SD-84") also known as the Transit Zoning Code
("TZC") by adoption of Urgency Ordinance No. NS-3063 to immediately offer protection
of public health, safety, and welfare from industrial uses significantly causing pollution
burden to adjacent residential neighborhoods in the TZC (SD-84) through the following
conditions, including: code enforcement active cases; irreconcilable land use conflicts in
the TZC; alarming air quality, noise, traffic, proximity to noxious use facilities, and public
health concerns; and external regulatory agency responsiveness; and

Page 1 of 11
WHEREAS, on May 7, 2024, City staff prepared, and the City Council issued and
filed a report to the public, pursuant to Section 65858(d) of the California Government
Code, describing the City's measures to alleviate conditions that led to the adoption of
the Moratorium; and
WHEREAS, Santa Ana Charter Sections 415 and 417 expressly authorize the
City Council to enact urgency ordinances, which take effect immediately upon
introduction, for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health or safety,
containing a declaration of the facts constituting the urgency; and
WHEREAS, Government Code Section 65858, authorizes the City Council to
adopt an interim urgency ordinance with a four -fifths vote, without following the
procedures otherwise required for the adoption of an ordinance, to protect the public
safety, health, and welfare, prohibiting any uses that may be in conflict with a
contemplated general plan, specific plan, or zoning proposal that the City Council,
Planning Commission or the planning department is considering or studying or intends
to study within a reasonable time; and
WHEREAS, in unanimously adopting the Moratorium on April 16, 2024, the City
Council of the City of Santa Ana established the following findings, all of which below
remain true and applicable and necessary to support extending the Moratorium:
• The TZC, located in the central core of Santa Ana, comprises
approximately 450 acres, encompasses the Logan, Lacy, and
Downtown neighborhoods, and was adopted by the City Council
on June 7, 2010; and
• Upon the initial adoption of the TZC in 2010, the General Plan of
the City of Santa Ana was updated with new land use
designations for the areas covered by the TZC to allow for new,
mixed -use residential and commercial communities; and
• The goals of the TZC are to provide a transit -supportive,
pedestrian -oriented development framework to support the
addition of new and enhancement of existing communities
through transit infrastructure; to preserve and reinforce the
existing character and pedestrian nature of the City by
strengthening urban form through improved development and
design standards; to encourage alternative modes of
transportation; to provide zoning for the integration of new infill
development into existing neighborhoods; to provide for a range
of housing options; and to allow for the reuse of existing
structures; and
• Industrial uses were established within the Logan and Lacy
neighborhoods in close proximity to sensitive land uses such as
Ordinance No. NS-3064
Page 2 of 11
residences and schools prior to the adoption of the TZC, as far
back as the late 19th century, predating modern zoning
practices that take into account irreconcilable land use conflicts
among variegated land uses; and
• The TZC provides new mixed -use zoning for properties
contained within its boundary while creating industrial overlay
zones allowing properties being used as industrial uses at the
time of its adoption to continue to be governed by industrial
zoning districts until such time that properties were converted to
the mixed -use zones allowed by the TZC; and
• Senate Bill (SB) 1000 went into effect in 2018, requiring local
governments to identify environmental justice communities,
called "disadvantaged communities", in their jurisdictions and
address environmental justice in their general plans through
facilitating transparency and public engagement in the planning
and decision -making processes, reducing harmful pollutants
and the associated health risks in disadvantaged communities,
and promoting equitable access to health -inducing benefits such
as healthy housing options; and
• The City of Santa Ana completed a comprehensive update of its
General Plan in April 2022; and
• The Office of the Attorney General of the State of California was
actively involved in ensuring Santa Ana's General Plan update
complied with all aspects of SB 1000 prior to its adoption; and
• As required by SB 1000, update of the General Plan and its
associated land use plan identified and addressed long standing
environmental justice issues throughout all of its elements,
which include 77 implementation actions aimed at reducing
harmful pollutants and associated health risks in disadvantaged
communities; and
• Numerous policies of the General Plan are inconsistent with the
present, irreconcilable land use pattern of the TZC. Specifically,
these policies include Policy LU-1.1 (Compatible Uses), Policy
LU-3.8 (Sensitive Receptors), Policy LU-3.9 (Noxious,
Hazardous, Dangerous, and Polluting Uses), Policy LU-3.11 (Air
Pollution Buffers), Policy LU-4.3 (Sustainable Land Use
Strategies), Policy LU-4.6 (Healthy Living Conditions), Policy
CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), Policy EP-1.9 (Avoid Conflict
of Uses), and Policy CN-1.5 (Sensitive Receptor Decisions),
which are targeted at correcting past land use planning
Ordinance No. NS-3064
Page 3 of 11
practices that have placed an unequitable environmental and
health burden on certain neighborhoods now termed
disadvantaged communities; and
• The industrial overlay zones in the TZC perpetuate past
planning practices of locating industrial uses, or other noxious
and unwanted uses, in close proximity to communities of color;
and
• The Logan neighborhood is the oldest Mexican and Mexican -
American neighborhood in Santa Ana and one of the oldest in
Orange County, and one of the few places where Mexicans and
those of Mexican descent were allowed to buy land due to
restrictions and covenants based on race during the first half of
the 20th century; and
• The construction of Santa Ana (1-5) Freeway through Santa Ana
in the 1950s resulted in a number of families being displaced
through the demolition of single-family homes in the
northeastern portion of the Logan neighborhood; and
• In the 1970s a proposed expansion of an arterial highway along
Civic Center Avenue would have demolished a significant
portion, if not all, of the Logan neighborhood; and
• The Logan and Lacy neighborhoods are within the second and
third highest scored census tracts in Santa Ana, each with a
composite score of 90 percent or greater, ranking in the 90th
percentile or greater of census tracts in the State, and identified
as "disadvantaged communities' by the Office of Environmental
Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) in its CalEnviroScreen
model; and
• Assembly Bill (AB) 686 requires local jurisdictions to take
deliberate actions to explicitly address, combat, and relieve
disparities to disadvantaged communities, such as Logan and
Lacy neighborhoods, resulting from past patterns of
segregation, disinvestment, and planning practices; and
• The updated land use plan in the Land Use Element of the
General Plan does not designate any properties within the TZC,
including the Logan or Lacy neighborhoods, as industrial; rather,
are designated as varying intensities of District Center or Urban
Neighborhood land use designations —both of which are
inconsistent with industrial uses; and
Ordinance No. NS-3064

® There are pressing and growing code enforcement complaints
stemming from the irreconcilable land use conflicts in the TZC.
Specifically, in the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, the City's
Code Enforcement Division has investigated over 33
commercial and industrial properties in the past nine months
and currently has 17 active open cases that have been issued
Notice of Violations and administrative citations for the following
types of violations: illegal storage, land use, zoning, property
and landscape maintenance, unpermitted work, business
license, and certificate of occupancy. The close proximity of
active open industrial cases during a short period of time is
creating a public nuisance that is draining City resources and
that is harming public health, safety, and general welfare of the
TZC's existing and new residential neighborhoods from the
concentration of open code enforcement cases nearby; and
• In the Logan neighborhood, 52 industrial facilities (automotive,
warehouse/storage, crematory, towing yards, construction) are
presently in close proximity to sensitive uses monitored by
external regulatory agencies such as South Coast AQMD,
Orange County Health Care Agency — Certified Unified Program
Agencies (OC CUPA), Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Board
(SARWQB), Orange County Fire Authority. Industrial facilities
have caused significant pollution exposure to disadvantaged
communities, including lead risk in soil and housing, diesel
particulate matter from idling trucks, toxic release from facilities,
traffic impacts, noise pollution, and airborne particulate matter or
fine inhalable particles of 2.5 (PM2.5) microns or less in
diameter. CalEnviroScreen reports higher environmental effects
from active facility cleanup sites, hazardous waste facilities, and
solid waste locations. Cumulative health impacts in the area
include asthma, cardiovascular disease, and low birth weight, in
this overburdened disadvantaged community factored by
socioeconomic indicators of poverty, linguistic isolation, housing
burden, and education; and
• In the Lacy neighborhood, 76 industrial facilities (automotive,
warehouse/storage, towing yards, construction) are presently in
close proximity to sensitive uses monitored by external
regulatory agencies such as South Coast AQMD, Orange
County Health Care Agency — Certified Unified Program
Agencies (OC CUPA), Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Board
(SARWQB), Orange County Fire Authority. Industrial facilities
have caused significant pollution onto disadvantaged
communities, including lead risk exposure, diesel particulate
matter from idling trucks, toxic release from facilities, traffic

impacts, noise pollution, vibration impacts, and airborne
particulate matter or fine inhalable particles of 2.5 (PM2.5)
microns or less in diameter. CalEnviroScreen reports higher
environmental effects from active facility cleanup sites,
hazardous waste facilities, and solid waste locations.
Cumulative health impacts in the area include asthma,
cardiovascular disease, and low birth weight, in this
overburdened disadvantaged community factored by
socioeconomic indicators of poverty, linguistic isolation, housing
burden, and education; and
• There is a recent surge in residential development activity in the
TZC that is exacerbating the irreconcilable land use conflicts
between residential and industrial land uses. Examples include
the Lacy Crossing residential development with over 100
ownership units directly adjacent to existing industrial land uses,
for which the City receives regular complaints from residential
occupants of disturbances from noise, vibrations, odors, and
truck traffic; and the Rafferty mixed -use development with 218
residential units, including 11 onsite units for very -low income
households, which is located less than one -fifth of a mile from
industrial land uses; and
• There is a marked increase in the pending and active
development applications for industrial land uses in the TZC,
including for contractor's yards, construction debris storage
yards, manufacturing operations, expansion of existing industrial
businesses, and storage and warehousing operations,
stemming from shifting economic demands for goods and
services emerging from the Covid-19 pandemic; and
• The City Council approved a contract with Moore, lacofano,
Goltsman, Inc. (MIG) on October 17, 2023. To ensure the City's
Zoning Code and General Plan are consistent, and to maintain
compliance with state law, comprehensive amendments to the
Zoning Code are required; and
• MIG and City staff have conducted extensive community
outreach, stakeholder interviews, and reviews of existing
zoning -related codes and policies in Santa Ana. These early
efforts have indicated that the irreconcilable land use conflicts
and land use inconsistencies in the TZC area are among the
top, most pressing topics that must be addressed as part of the
comprehensive Zoning Code Update process in order to protect
the health, safety, and welfare of the most vulnerable
Ordinance No. NS-3064
Page 6 of 11
communities that face the impacts of the land use conflicts
within the TZC area; and
• The policies and implementation actions in the General Plan
also require review, study, and possible revision in order to
respond to recent concerns relating to the impacts of these
industrial business uses in the TZC; and
• Given these concerns, the City Council directed that a study be
undertaken of the current provisions of the TZC to address
industrial business uses and determine whether such uses
should be permitted in the zoning district, and if not, proceed
with an ordinance amendment to preclude such uses from the
district; and
• Based on the foregoing, the City Council found that continuing
to issue permits, business licenses, or other applicable
entitlements to individuals wishing to use their property located
in the TZC for the purposes of industrial business use, prior to
the City's completion of its study of the potential impact of such
uses, would pose a current and immediate threat to the public
health, safety, and welfare, and that a temporary moratorium on
the issuance of such permits, licenses, and entitlements in the
TZC area is thus necessary; and
• The City Council further found that if an industrial business use
is permitted in the TZC without further review and potential
regulation, it will pose a serious threat to the public interest,
health, safety and welfare for the following reasons:
o Adversely impacts surrounding businesses and
neighborhoods;
o Adversely impacts sensitive uses such as residences,
schools, parks, and places where children congregate;
o Conflicts with the goals and policies of the City's General
Plan;
o Long-term incompatibility and inconsistency with
surrounding uses; and
o Risks to the public health, safety and welfare of the City;
and
• The City Council also determined that prevention of detrimental
impacts to residents, the public interest, health, safety and
welfare required the immediate enactment of the urgency
ordinance and that the absence of the urgency ordinance will
create a serious threat to the orderly and effective
Ordinance No. NS-3064
Page 7 of 11
implementation of any code amendments, general plan
amendments or specific plan amendments which may be
adopted by the City; industrial business uses may be in conflict
with or frustrate the contemplated updates and revisions to the
Code. Moreover, permitting such uses during said studies and
implementation would create impacts on the public health,
safety and welfare that the City Council, in adopting the
ordinance, found to be unacceptable; and
WHEREAS, Since the adoption of the Moratorium, City staff has begun to gather
data and research the impact of these industrial uses in the TZC as set forth in the
report issued by the City Council on May 7, 2204; and
WHEREAS, there is a need to study further the issues associated with industrial
uses in the TZC and the impact that these uses have on the adjacent residential
neighborhoods and their residents; and
WHEREAS, City staff, the Planning Commission, and the City Council each
require a reasonable period of time to study the existing SD-841TZC and to evaluate if
further, permanent action to address the land use conflicts in the TZC is necessary; and
WHEREAS, the City Council wishes to extend the Moratorium for a period of ten
(10) months and fifteen (15) days, or until the City Council adopts an ordinance
addressing the issues raised, whichever occurs first; and
WHEREAS, at a duly noticed public hearing on May 21, 2024, the City Council
heard testimonial evidence and all other evidence submitted from members of the public
that were present and from City staff. The City Council reviewed, analyzed, considered
and studied all oral and written testimony and evidence presented at the public hearing,
including staff reports and presentations of City staff.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana does ordain as
follows:
Section 1. The recitals above are each incorporated by reference and adopted
as findings by the City Council.
Section 2. The City Council finds that there is a current and immediate threat
to public health, safety and welfare posed by industrial uses in SD-84, also known as,
the TZC. If an industrial business use is permitted in the TZC without further review and
potential regulation, it will pose a serious threat to the public interest, health, safety and
welfare due to adverse impacts on surrounding businesses and neighborhoods;
adverse impacts on sensitive uses such as residences, schools, parks, and places
where children congregate; conflicts with the goals and policies of the City's General
Plan; and the effect of long term incompatibility and inconsistency with surrounding
uses.

Section 3. In accordance with Government Code Section 65858(d), on May 7,
2024, the City Council issued a written report describing the measures being taken to
alleviate the conditions that lead to the adoption of the Moratorium and this extension
thereof, attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference.
Section 4. Government Code Section 65858 authorizes the City Council to
adopt an interim Urgency Ordinance, without following the procedures otherwise
required for the adoption of an ordinance, to protect the public safety, health and
welfare, prohibiting any uses that may be in conflict with a contemplated general plan,
specific plan, or zoning proposal that the City Council, Planning Commission of the
planning department is considering or studying or intends to study within a reasonable
time.
Section 5. Government Code Section 65858(a) provides that the City Council,
after notice and a public hearing, may extend the interim Ordinance for 10 months and
15 days and subsequently extend the interim ordinance for one year. Any extension
requires a four -fifths vote.
Section 6. The City Council, in accordance with Government Code Section
65858 and Santa Ana Charter Sections 415 and 417 hereby adopts this uncodified
Urgency Ordinance extending the Moratorium on the approval, commencement,

period of ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days, commencing June 1, 2024. The
Moratorium will now expire on April 15, 2025, or until the City Council adopts an
Ordinance addressing the issues related to the approval, commencement,
establishment, relocation or expansion of industrial uses within SD-84, also known as
the TZC. For the purposes of this Urgency Ordinance, "industrial uses" includes those
specified by Divisions 18 and 19 of Article III of Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal
Code, and by Section 41-2007 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code and Table 2A in the
Transit Zoning Code (Specific Development No. 84).
Section 7. This Ordinance shall have no further force and effect after a period
of ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days, commencing June 1, 2024; unless, however,
after public hearing the City Council, by four/fifths (4/5) vote, extend this Ordinance for a

AGENDA TITLE
Ten -Day Written Report Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858(d)
Following Adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063, a 45-day Moratorium
on the Approval, Commencement, Establishment, Relocation, or Expansion of Industrial
Uses within Specific Development No. 84
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Issue and file a Council report to the public, pursuant to Section 65858(d) of the
California Government Code, describing the City's measures to alleviate conditions that
led to the adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063, on April 16, 2024,
regarding a 45-day moratorium on the approval, commencement, establishment,
relocation, or expansion of industrial uses within Specific Development No. 84 (the
Transit Zoning Code).
GOVERNMENT CODE 584308 APPLIES: No
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Pursuant to Section 65858(d) of the California Government Code, the purpose of this
staff report is to provide a written report no less than ten days prior to the expiration of
Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 describing the measures City staff has taken
to alleviate the condition which led to the adoption of the Ordinance.
On April 16, 2024, the City Council adopted Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063,
which establishes a 45-day moratorium on the approval, commencement,
establishment, modification, relocation, or expansion of industrial uses in Specific
Development No. 84, also known as the Transit Zoning Code (commonly referred to as
the "Transit Zoning Code" or "TZC") while City staff researches appropriate regulations
and determines whether an extension pursuant to the Government Code is necessary.
Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 shall have no further force and effect 45 days
from the date of its adoption, unless, after a report on the first 45 days and a public
hearing, the City Council members, again by four/fifths (4/5) vote, extend the Ordinance

n to Alleviate the Condition which Led to the
NS-3063 (Transit Zoning Code Moratorium)
for an initial extension period of ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days. Based on the
adoption date of April 16, 2024, the Ordinance is scheduled to expire on June 1, 2024.
As City staff begins to analyze and prepare an evaluation of industrial business uses
within the TZC, the evaluation will enable staff to generate recommendations to the
Planning Commission and City Council to determine whether further, permanent action
is necessary. Such action may entail a zoning map amendment, zoning text
amendment, or both, which would address industrial land uses in the TZC.
Background
On April 16, 2024, the City Council adopted Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 to
immediately offer protection of public health, safety, and welfare from industrial uses
significantly causing pollution burden to adjacent neighborhoods through the following
conditions, including: code enforcement active cases; irreconcilable land use conflicts in
the TZC; alarming air quality, noise, traffic, proximity to noxious use facilities, and public
health concerns; and external regulatory agency responsiveness. During the urgency
interim moratorium period, the City will not issue permits that result in the approval,
commencement, establishment, modification, relocation, or expansion of industrial uses
in the TZC.
Measures Taken
Review of City Department Activities
Immediately following the adoption of the 45-day moratorium, staff conducted an
interagency meeting, which included representatives from multiple City departments.
These departments include the Planning Division, Building Safety Division, Code
Enforcement Division, Business License, and Information Technology. Moreover,
engagement with additional agencies such as the Police Department, Public Works
Agency, and the Community Development Agency's Economic Development Division
has produced critical information illustrating the extent to which industrial activities are
intertwined with residential land uses in the TZC area, specifically and most
concentrated in the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods.
Data based on Business License and Economic Development records indicate that the
application of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 affects up to 130 industrial
businesses in the TZC. Of these, over one -dozen have active applications for permits,
the majority of which are to legalize unpermitted work on industrial properties and
address ongoing Code Enforcement Division notices of violation.

Adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 (Transit Zoning Code Moratorium)
May 7, 2024
Page 3
City staff continues to gather, review, and analyze information regarding affected
industrial businesses within the TZC. Specific data and reporting pertains to applications
submitted by industrial businesses for permits, entitlements, certificates of occupancy,
business licenses, and other relevant records immediately prior to and following the
adoption of the Urgency Interim Ordinance and currently being reviewed by City staff.
Requests for information on calls for service and incident activities responded to by
public safety departments of the Santa Ana Police Department and Orange County Fire
Authority (OCFA) are being reviewed by City staff to understand and validate public
safety concerns or impacts shared by neighbors in disadvantaged communities with
actual calls and emergencies reported.
In addition, City staff continues to monitor Code Enforcement Division activities and
implementation of the City's Noxious Uses Ordinance pertaining to these facilities. Code
Enforcement staff will broaden data reports that show enforcement activity beyond the
Lacy and Logan neighborhoods within the TZC, where at the time of adoption of the
Urgency Interim Ordinance on April 16, 2024, 17 active open cases were issued Notice
of Violations and administrative citations for the following types of violations: illegal
storage, land use, zoning, property and landscape maintenance, unpermitted work,
business license, and certificate of occupancy. Such violations include issues of odors,
dust, traffic, noise, vibrations, and other documented impacts. The close proximity of
active open industrial cases during a short period is creating a public nuisance that is
harming public health, safety, and general welfare of the two residential neighborhoods
from the concentration of open code enforcement cases nearby.
Review of Records and Activities of External Agencies
To broaden the analysis beyond the City's local land use impacts, City staff have
initiated public records requests of violation records and violation status of outside
regulatory agencies, and have contacted staff from external regulatory agencies such
as the South Coast Air Quality Monitoring District (SCAQMD), Santa Ana Regional
Quality Water Control Board, the Department of Toxic Substances Control, and others
responsible for issuing supportive permits for industrial uses in the TZC. Specifically,
these agencies are responsible for permit issuance, compliance activities, and/or
monitoring hazardous clean-up sites, or other industrial facility -related activities and
have received current data requests for sites located within SD No. 84.
Data from external regulatory agencies would assist City staff in further understanding
activities between external regulatory agencies and industrial businesses that may
place additional impacts on public health, safety, and welfare in affected neighborhoods
adjacent to industrial businesses in the TZC. This information would enable City staff to
understand the correlation and environmental burdens that may be attributed to
permitted activities for industrial businesses in historically environmentally
disadvantaged communities, specifically the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods. In

Adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 (Transit Zoning Code Moratorium)
May 7, 2024
Page 4
response to the City's request, SCAQMD clarified the need to process the records
request by larger geographic areas, not specifically matching the boundaries of the
TZC. When reports become available to the City, additional time will be needed for City
staff to carefully review and analyze other internal data to understand all activities
(internal and external) and affected industrial businesses.
Comprehensive Zoning Code Update and Neighborhood Engagement
City staff continues to work with Project Consultant Moore, lacofano, Goltsman, Inc. (MIG)
to ensure the City's Zoning Code and General Plan are consistent and, to maintain
compliance with state law, comprehensive amendments to the Zoning Code are required.
MIG and City staff have already conducted extensive community outreach, stakeholder
interviews, and reviews of existing zoning -related codes and policies in Santa Ana. These
early efforts have indicated that the irreconcilable land use conflicts and land use
inconsistencies in the TZC area are among the top, most pressing topics that must be
addressed as part of the comprehensive Zoning Code Update process in order to protect
the health, safety, and welfare of the most vulnerable communities that face the impacts
of the land use conflicts within the TZC area.
City staff from the Neighborhood Initiatives and Environmental Services (NIES) section
of the Planning Division will continue to coordinate with City departments, external
regulatory agencies, and staff from other federal and state agencies to identify
additional resources available to enhance deeper awareness of pollution exposure in
disadvantaged communities, long-term health effects, and immediate solutions. The
NIES team has held meetings and discussions with staff from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry and CaIEPA
Environmental Justice Team to identify opportunities for linking environmental justice
(EJ) resources and support to the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods. In addition, the NIES
team has been working with the residents selected to represent the City's EJ Clusters to
complete the formation of the EJ Action Committee, the community -led EJ advocacy
group, to guide the prioritization and resource investments to implement the City's
General Plan EJ Policies and Implementation Actions.
Next Steps
Staff implements the 45-day moratorium established by Urgency Interim Ordinance No.
NS-3063 through ongoing interagency coordination. Moreover, staff will continue to
analyze and prepare an evaluation of industrial business uses within the TZC, which will
enable staff to generate recommendations to the Planning Commission and City
Council to determine whether an extension of the 45-day moratorium is recommended.
If an extension is recommended, it would be placed on the May 21, 2024 City Council
agenda as a public hearing item, which is prior to the June 1 expiration date.
Ten -Day Report Describing Measures Taken to Alleviate the Condition which Led to the
Adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063 (Transit Zoning Code Moratorium)
May 7, 2024
Page 5
During the 45-day moratorium and any potential extension period, staff will evaluate if
further, permanent action to address the land use conflicts in the TZC is necessary.
Such action may entail a zoning map amendment, zoning text amendment, or both,
which would permanently address industrial land uses in the TZC.
FISCAL IMPACTS
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
