WHEREAS, this Council held a duly noticed public hearing on Tentative Tract Map
No. 16187 for the Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
1. Based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, this Council
finds and determines as follows:
Ao
The proposed project, as conditioned, and its design and improvements
are consistent with the Single-Family Residential (LR-7) land use
designation of the General Plan and are otherwise consistent with all
other elements of the General Plan and any applicable specific plans.
The proposed project consists of the division of one parcel into 41 lots in
order to construct 36 single-family residences. The proposed subdivision
is consistent with the General Plan land use designation of Low Density
Residential (LR-7) for this area. The residential development also
promotes the long-range goals and policies of the General Plan Housing
Element and Land Use Element. The project provides inflll housing,
increases the housing stock, and preserves the character and integrity of
Resolution No. 2001-032

the surrounding residential neighborhoods through amhitectural details,
similar lot sizes, street frontages and building setbacks that meet the
requirements of the Single-Family Residential (R1) zoning district.
The proposed project, as conditioned, conforms to all applicable
requirements of the zoning and subdivision codes, as well as other
applicable City ordinances.
The proposed development conforms to the subdivision codes for private
streets, on and off-site improvements, and utilities as well as the Single-
Family Residential (R1) zoning requirements for lot size, street frontage,
building setbacks, and height. Knox Boxes on the entrance gates and
street lighting will be installed to comply with Fire Department and Police
Department requirements. Additionally, the project will conform to the
California Building Code prior to issuance of the building permits.
The project site is physically suitable for the type and density of the
proposed project.
The topography of the nine-acre parcel is fiat and triangular. The
proposed lot subdivision provides 36 residential lots, and five lots for open
space and street purposes. The density for Low Density Residential land
use is seven dwelling units per acre as proposed, the development has a
gross density of four dwelling units per acre and a net density of six
dwelling units per acre.
The design and improvements of the proposed project will not cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish
or wildlife or their habitat.
No fish or wildlife will be affected by the approval of the map or by the
design and improvements of the project. Environmental Review No. 01-24
has been prepared for the project and has identified mitigation measures
aimed at substantially reducing any environmental impacts associated with
the project to insignificant levels. Pursuant to Title XIV, California Code of
Regulations § 735.5(c)(1), after considering the record as a whole, there is
no evidence that the proposed project will have the potential for any
adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife
depends. Therefore, pursuant to Fish and Game Code § 711.2 and Title
XIV, CCR § 735.5(a)(3), the payment of Fish and Game Department filing
fees is not required in conjunction with this project.
The design or improvements of the proposed project will not cause
serious public health problems.
The proposed 36 single-family residential development would not result in
Resolution No. 2001-032

health related problems. The construction of the project could potentially
result in short term increases in air quality impacts. Implementation of
AQMD Rule 403 as required would reduce the particulate matter in the
ambient air produced by construction operations.
The design or improvements of the proposed project will not conflict with
easements necessary for public access through or use of the property
within the proposed project.
The site is improved with an existing building and parking lot since the
early 1960's. As part of the demolition process, existing sewer and water
facilities would be removed or capped and inspected by the City for code
compliance. The project requires the realignment of existing utility
easements and the dedication of new utility easements for the
development.
Emergency services would have access to the development with the
installation of Knox boxes as well as Department of the Defense access to
the jet fuel line easement.
2. Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Program for
Environmental Review No. 01-24 is hereby approved and adopted.
3. Tentative Tract Map No. 16187 is hereby approved, as conditioned in
Attachment A, attached hereto and incorporated herein.
ADOPTED this 16~ day of April, 2001.
