Council adopt Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2002-02

contained in the initial study and the mitigated negative declaration and mitigation
monitoring program for Environmental Review No. 2001-131 prepared with respect to this
Project. It is determined that, as required pursuant to the California Environmental
Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, a mitigated negative declaration
and mitigation monitoring program adequately addresses the expected environmental
impacts of this Project. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds that there is no
evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the project will have a significant adverse
effect on the environment. The City Council hereby certifies and approves the mitigated
negative declaration and mitigation monitoring program and directs that the Notice of
Determination be prepared and filed with the County Clerk of the County of Orange in the
manner required by law.

evidence that the proposed project will have the potential for any adverse effect on
wildlife resources or the ecological habitat upon which wildlife resources depend. The
proposed project exists in an urban environment characterized by paved concrete,
roadways, surrounding buildings and human activity. Therefore, pursuant to Fish and
Ordinance No. NS-2508
