DISCUSSION
Background
The proposed zoning ordinance amendment (ZOA) is to amend sections of
Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal code to clari fy, modi fy and
establish new regulations. Specifically, substantial changes are
proposed to the single-family residential development standards that are
intended to address concerns about projects that are not characteristic
of or beneficial to their neighborhoods. The current code sections that
regulate single family dwelling development were adopted in 1986. These
sections have basically remained unchanged for the last 20 years, which
has resulted in regulations that are not in concert with the current
housing trends. As a result, many of the sections are obsolete and in
need of updating.
The amendments to the definitions, second dwelling units,
vending machines and townhouse regulations are primarily
clarify and update these regulations.

Analysis of the Issues
Single Family Development
The City Council, the Planning Commission
Commission have all raised concerns about
additions and new single-family dwellings
Santa Ana neighborhoods.
and
the
are
the Historic Resources
negative impact recent
having on traditional
In an effort to address these concerns, staff conducted an informal
survey of approved residential additions of three or more bedrooms.
These additions averaged 1,350 square feet and resulted in homes with an
average size of 2,675 square feet and 6.1 bedrooms (Exhibit 1).
Staff found that the large additions and many recent infill
developments, which are similar in size, scale, massing and number of
bedrooms as the surveyed projects, had the potential to negatively
impact the quality of life of the established and new neighborhoods as
follows:
· The proj ects were incompatible with the established neighborhoods
due to their scale and massing.
· The projects extended the economic life of nonconforming buildings,
instead of encouraging them to recycle.
· Their design was conducive to improper occupancy due to the
excessive number of master suites and imbalance in the proportion
of the private and social areas of the house.
· A high number of bedrooms appears to increase the parking demand
due to the potential for increase in the number of occupants.
In May 2004, the Planning Commission established an Ad Hoc Committee to
examine the adequacy of the current residential development standards.
The Ad Hoc Committee and staff have studied the issues, surveyed
neighboring communities and are recommending modifications to the
residential standards to work in concert with the recently completed
Citywide Design Guidelines to address the identified concerns
(Exhibit 2)
To address the concerns regarding the scale and mass of additions and
new dwellings, several interrelated regulations and standards are being
proposed that, when used in conjunction, would shape the scale and mass
758-3
Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2004-07

of buildings while still allowing for the construction of economically
viable, competitively sized and architecturally varied homes. Staff is
proposing the following:
· Reduce the lot coverage from 50 percent to 35 percent. This would
result in a maximum building ground coverage of 2,100 square feet
on a 6,000 square foot lot. A lot coverage of 50 percent is
necessary on small lots to allow viable homes, but not typical on
6,000 square foot lots. A 50 percent lot coverage inevitably will
change the uniqueness of existing neighborhoods in Santa Ana and
result in communities where buildings are close to each other, such
as is seen on newer communities in South County area where lots are
generally smaller.
· Change the definition of lot coverage to regulate the size of the
building footprint and not the roof proj ection. This would allow
patio covers and gazebos, as well as eaves and other similar
projections, to be excluded from the lot coverage calculations.
For reference, the average lot coverage of the homes surveyed in
the study was 32 percent.
· Implement design standards to address the size and location of a
new second story. This would allow the construction of a variety
of architectural styles, which provides the richness in the
architectural fabric of the city's established neighborhoods and to
reduce the impact of second stories on the existing streetscape,
especially when surrounding properties are single story.
To address
recreation,
concerns about the lack of
staff is recommending to:
usable private

space
for
· Eliminate the allowable reduction of rear yards when 1,200 square
feet of open space is provided.
· Clarify that the rear yards are intended to be used for recreation
purposes and not for parking or driveways.
· Reduce the maximum size of accessory structures from 66 percent to
50 percent of the main structure.
Extensive modifications to nonconforming buildings can extend their
economic life, while the zoning code encourages their recycling or
coming into closer compliance with the current code. To address this
concern, staff is proposing modifications to the nonconforming code.
While nonconforming dwellings will continue to have the ability to
758-4
Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2004-07
March 27, 2006
Page 4
rehabilitate, make structural alterations and even expand, additions of
40 percent or more of the existing building area, any bedroom additions
or remodeling involving more than 50 percent of the existing building
area will require compliance with the current parking and open space
requirement. It was determined that substantial additions and extensive
remodels can result in a more intense use of the site and exacerbate
existing nonconformi ties. For example, at present, a small dwelling
constructed with two bedrooms and one or no garage can add any number of
master bedrooms and construct an addition that exceeds the existing size
of the dwelling wi thout the requirement of a garage or the need to
preserve usable open space. While the impact of a lack of garage for a
two or three bedroom, 1,200 square feet dwelling may not be significant
as parking and open space may be accomplished on site, the lack of on-
site parking and lack of usable open space for a six bedroom, 2,500
square foot dwelling creates a negative impact on neighborhood streets
and the cumulative negative impact further erodes the quality of life
for residents.
As described earlier, dwellings with a large number of bedrooms can
create a larger parking demand as an increase in bedrooms generally can
be translated to an increase in number of occupants in the house. At
present, the number of parking spaces is based on the number of units.
Staff proposes to modify the parking code to require parking based on
the number of bedrooms. Similar to regulations of surrounding
communities, a graduated system is proposed in Table 1:
Bedrooms Existing Proposed
No. Garage Driveway Garage Driveway
Up to 5 2-car 2 2-car 2
6 2-car 2 3-car 2
7 2-car 2 3-car 3
8 2-car 2 4-car 3
9 2-car 2 4-car 4
TABLE 1
In addition to parking concerns, an excessive number of bedrooms raises
concerns with adequate open space, noise, and impacts to the park
system. In order to ensure that a single family dwelling does not
create negative impacts to the community such as excessive vehicle
parking, noise, community meetings and frequent gatherings, staff is
proposing to require a conditional use permit for dwellings wi th seven
or more bedrooms, thus allowing these residences to be monitored.

Lastly, the amendment will modify and delete code sections that are
obsolete or in conflict with implementation of the new proposed
regulations or design guidelines, such as requiring mechanical equipment
to be screened, establishing a minimum residential garage size and
consolidating the minimum front yard requirements in one section to
avoid confusion.
Definitions
This section will be modified to clarify and create new definitions.
Definitions pertaining to lot coverage, one-family dwelling and vending
machines will be updated, while others, such as porte cochere will be
created to clarify other sections of the code.
Second Dwelling Unit
A minor modification to Section 41-194 (e) of the second dwelling unit
ordinance is proposed, which will clarify that the minimum dimension of
the usable open space is 15 feet in either direction.
Laundromats
This section, which was previously modified in 1995, is proposed to be
amended to incorporate an additional development and performance
standard. Due to concerns with loitering and public safety, the Police
Department is recommending that one full-time, on-site attendant be
present during the laundromat's hours of operation. This requirement
will address public safety and attractive nuisance concerns resulting
from the use.
Vending Machines
The proposed ordinance amendment is the refinement of the outdoor
vending regulations originally adopted in July 2003. The proposal
increases the allowable width of freestanding outdoor vending machines
from 37 inches to 42 inches to better align with the industry standard.
Secondly, the amendment specifically addresses outdoor water vending
machines that are proposed within the exterior storefronts of "water
stores." By way of the proposed definition and standards for outdoor
water vending machines, only one such water vending machine would be
permitted in each commercial center. The existing maximum of five
758-6
Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2004-07
March 27, 2006
Page 6
outdoor vending machines (freestanding or water wall mounted) per
commercial center would remain in place. Exhibit 3 includes Santa Ana's
existing water retail facilities with outdoor water vending machines
based on California Department of Health Services licenses and site
visits conducted July 2004. The existing outdoor water vending machines
on this list are proposed to be grandfathered as existing non conforming
uses.
Townhouse Standards
The townhouse standards will be amended to eliminate a conflicting
standard regarding the minimum street frontage. Section 41-274 of the
SAMC stipulates a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet with a minimum
street frontage of 100 feet, while Section 41-276 cites 200 feet as the
minimum street frontage. Based on staff research, it appears the
conflict resulted when Section 41-276 was left in error in 1991.
The proposed ordinance will protect property values and preserve the
quality of life by creating regulations that avoid impacts that may
degrade or diminish neighborhoods. The proposed standards, in conjunction
with the Citywide Design Guidelines, were presented to the Communication
Linkage Forum on April 28, 2005 and were supported by the neighborhood
representatives present (Exhibit 4). In concert with the City's goal to
maintain and protect safe and attractive neighborhoods, it is recommended
that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council approve
Zoning Ordinance Amendment 2004-07 (Exhibit 5).
CEQA Compliance
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Negative
Declaration, Environmental Review No. 2004-231 has been prepared for this
project (Exhibit 6).

RE: Support for New Guidelines for Residential Additions and Reduction of
Lot Usage Percentage
Dear Planning Commissioners,
The Wilshire Square Neighborhood Association would like to express support
for the Planning Manager's proposed citywide design guidelines for second
story additions for single family homes to conform to the architectural
esthetics of the neighborhood. Wilshire Square Neighborhood Association
also endorses the reduction of residential lot coverage to 33%. These
guidelines will eliminate the trend toward mans ionization and overbuilding on
lots.
We request the Planning Commission support these proposals to preserve the
character of our neighborhoods.

Sec. 41-608. Same--Modifications in yard regulations.
The following modifications in yard regulations may be undertaken:
(a) Since the general yard provisions of this chapter have to be applied
to numerous types of conditions and shapes of parcels occasioned
by varying street layouts and subdivisions of property, it is not
advisable to attempt to define herein those cases which warrant
exceptions and modifications to the general yard requirements of
this chapter, therefore, authority is hereby given the zoning
administrator, as a part of his administrative function, to determine
in writing the application of the specific requirements of this chapter
in harmony with their purpose and intent so that the spirit of the
chapter shall be observed, public peace, health, safety, and welfare
secured, and substantial justice done under the following
circumstances:
(b) Where the application of yard regulations cannot be determined or
may be interpreted in more than one way as to cause confusion in
the administration of such regulations or general yard provisions
with respect to irregularly shaped lots such as those resulting from
7 qJ~h~5
some angular or curved streets, particularly triangular or gme
irreqular shaped lots with more than four (4) lot lines, 9J:...reverse
corner lots developed in such a manner wllere the front 'lard is
unclear such regulations or provisions may be modified or
interpreted by the zoning administrator in writing as to an individual
lot or to all lots of similar type involving a common problem and the
building shall be governed by such interpretation. No fence or
accessory building, the location of which is determined in whole or
in part by yards, shall be erected or established upon any lot which
is so irregularly or oddly shaped as to cause confusion relative to
interpretation of such regulations until the yard provisions of this
chapter shall have been determined as set forth above.
(c) Tho zoning administrator may, as a part of his administrativo
function, authorizo a ton (10) por cont roduction in roquirod sido,

Environmental Determination
On the basis of this initial evaluation, I find that:
A. ~ The proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment and a NEGATIVE
DECLARATiON will be prepared.
B. D Although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant
effect in this case because revisions to the project have been made by or agreed to by the applicant. A
MITiGATED NEGATiVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
c. D The proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT is required.
D. D Although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, because all potentially
significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequateiy in an earlier EIR (EIR No. - ) pursuant to applicable
standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR, including revisions or mitigation
measures that are imposed upon the project, nothing further is required.
E. D Pursuant to Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, an EIR (EIR No. -) has been prepared earlier and only
minor technical changes or additions are necessary to make the previous EIR adequate and these changes do
not raise important new issues about the significant effects on the environment. An ADDENDUM to the EIR
shall be prepared.
F. D Pursuant to Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines, an EIR (EIR No. - ) has been prepared earlier; however,
subsequent proposed changes in the project and/or new information of substantial importance will cause one
or mor significant effects no previously discussed. A SUBSEQUENT EiR shall be prepared.

Evaluation of Environmental Impacts:
I. A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported
by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact"
answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does
not apply to projects like the one involved (e.g., the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No
impact" answer should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general
standards (e.g., the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific
screening analysis).
II. All answers must take account of the whole action invoived, including off-site as well as on-site,
cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational
impacts.
III. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If
there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is
required.
IV. "Potentially Significant Uniess Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation
measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less than Significant Impact".
The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to
a less than significant level.

Assessment Model prepared by the California Department of Conservation as an optional model to use in
assessing impacts on agricultural farmland. Would the project:
A.
Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland or
Farmiand of Statewide Importance (Farmland) to
non-agricultural use? (The Farmland Mapping and

TITLE
Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2004-7
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed zoning ordinance amendment would be a consolidated
effort to amend various sections of Chapter 41 to correct,
clarify, and establish new regulations for single family
development, vending machines, second dwelling units,
definitions, front yard fences, laundromats, townhouse and
specific development standards. In addition, Specific
Development No. 40 would be amended. The following is a summary
of the proposed amendments. A summary table of the existing
ordinance and the proposed ordinance amendments is presented on
Appendix A.
Single-Family Residential Development
The proposed amendment would modify and create new standards to
regulate large additions and new single family dwellings (SFD)
which are out of scale and incompatible with the neighborhood,
and whose massing negatively impacts the streetscape.
Specifically, the amendment would create new standards for
second stories, reduce the lot coverage, create an open space
requirement, modify the rear and side yard setbacks and reduce
the size of accessory structures. In addition, the amendment
will address the parking impacts and occupancy concerns of large
SFDs by modifying the parking code to require parking based on
the number of bedrooms and require condi tional use permits for
SFDs wi th more than seven bedrooms. Finally, the amendment
would delete and modify code sections (including the
nonconforming code), which are obsolete or are in conflict with
implementation of new proposed standards.
Residential Front Yard Fences
The residential front yard fence ordinance would be modified to
allow the implementation of the Pilot White picket Fence Rebate
Program sponsored by the City's Redevelopment Agency. The
program intends to encourage the replacement of nonconforming
front yard fences with vinyl picket fences within a defined
pilot area. Vinyl was chosen as the preferred material due to
its durability and ease of maintenance.
75a4~5
Definitions
This section of the code would be modified
"transient/residential hotel" in alphabetical order
the area occupied by a pool/billiard table.
to place
and clarify
Second Dwelling Units
The second dwelling unit ordinance would be amended to relocate
the section that prohibits second dwelling units on parcels that
are deficient in public open space from "Standards" to a new
section to be titled "Prohibited Locations" to clarify the
section's intent.
Laundromats
The ordinance regulating Laundromats would be amended to require
one full-time, on-site attendant during the laundromat's hours
of operation to address public safety and attractive nuisance
concerns resulting from the use.
Vending Machines
The vending machine ordinance would be amended to modify the
permitted size of vending machines to accommodate the industry
standard sizes. The ordinance would also clarify the definition
and create additional development standards to accommodate wall
mounted water vending machines.
Townhouse Standards
The townhouse ordinance would be amended
conflicting standard regarding the minimum lot
to eliminate
frontage.
a
Specific Development Standards
The Specific Development Standards would be amended to
facilitate and expedite the review of development proposals of
structures listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical
Properties. These properties would be excluded from review by
the Planning Commission. Structures listed on the Santa Ana
Register of Historical Properties would be reviewed by the
Historic Resources Commission in compliance with Chapter 30 of
the Santa Ana Municipal Code.
755'446
Specific Development Plan No. 40 Zone District
The Specific Development Plan No. 40 (SD-40) would be amended to
facili tate and expedite the review of development proposals of
structures listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical
Properties. These properties would be excluded from review by
the Planning Commission. Structures listed on the Santa Ana
Register of Historical Properties would be reviewed by the
Historic Resources Commission.
RESPONSES TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
The following is an analysis of potential environmental impacts
associated with the proposed zoning ordinance amendment based
upon the City of Santa Ana Environmental Check List. The
analysis incorporates by reference information from the Santa
Ana General Plan Land Use Element No. EIR 97-1.
The proposed zoning ordinance amendment involves comprehensive
changes to the single-family residential development standards.
The amendments to the residential front yard fences,
definitions, second dwelling units, laundromats, vending
machines, townhouse standards and specific development standards
as well as amendments to the Specific Development No. 40 zone
district are mainly intended to correct, clarify and update
these sections. No environmental impacts would be associated
wi th thi s portion of the proposed zoning ordinance amendment.
Therefore, the primary focus of the environmental analysis of
the proposed zoning ordinance amendment would be potential
impacts associated with the proposed changes to the single-
family residential development standards.
I. AESTHETICS
A. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista?
B. Damage scenic resources, including but not limited to
trees, rock outpourings and historic buildings within a
State highway?
C. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or
quality of the site and its surrounding?
D. Create a new source of substantial light or glare, which
would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area?
No Impact
7 5B4~ 7
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single-family
residential standards would not result in adverse aesthetic
impacts to any scenic vista or scenic resource, in that the
proposed project would not involve any activities that would
result in adverse aesthetic impacts. The zoning amendment
proposes changes would enhance the aesthetic appearance of
single family development within the City. Additionally,
through the City's implementation of the development review
process, single~family residential land uses developed under the
amended standards would be evaluated for potential aesthetic
impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any adverse aesthetic impacts.
II. AGRICULTURE
A. Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland or Farmland of
Statewide Importance to non-agriculture use?
B. Conflict with existing zoning for agriculture use or a
williamson Contract?
C. Involve other changes in the existing environment, which,
due to their location or nature, could individually or
cumulatively result in loss of Farmland, to non-agriculture
use?
No Impact
According to the California Department of Conservation Farmland
Mapping and Monitoring Program, the City of Santa Ana contains a
limi ted amount of Prime and Unique Farmlands. Presently, there
are no areas in the City that are under existing Williamson
Contracts.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single-family
residential standards would not allow or facilitate development
within areas that are considered agricultural resources.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any adverse impacts to agricultural resources.
75B448
III. AIR QUALITY
A. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of applicable Air
Quality Attainment Plan or congestion Management Plan?
The City of Santa Ana is included within the South Coast Air
Quali ty Management District and subj ect to the requirements of
the Clean Air Act at both the Federal and State level. The South
Coast Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) is the primary planning
document to monitor if air quality standards and objectives are
being achieved in the South Coast Air Basin. The air quality
objectives in the AQMP are based upon population and growth
projections provided in a City's General Plan. A project could
be in conflict with the AQMP if it results in population and
growth impacts beyond those identified in a City's General Plan.
The proposed zoning ordinance amendment would not impact the
growth projections in the General Plan. Therefore, approval of
the proposed zoning ordinance amendment would not be in conflict
with the South Coast AQMP.
B. violate any stationary source air quality standard or
contribute to an existing or proposed air quality
violation?
C. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any
criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-
attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air
quality standard?
D. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant
concentrations?
E. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number
of people?
No Impact
Approval of the proposed zoning ordinance amendment would not
result in any long-term or short-term air quality impacts, or
odor impacts in that the proposed ordinance amendment would not
involve any activities that would generate short-term or long-
term air pollutant emissions or odor emissions. While single-
family residential land uses developed under the amended
standards could result in air quality and odor impacts, the
city's development review process would evaluate the proposed
single family residential land uses for potential short and long
term air quality and odor impacts.
758-49
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any adverse air quality impacts.
III. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
A. Have a substantial adverse impact, either directly or
through habitat modifications, on any species identified as
a candidate, sensitive or special status species in local
or regional plans, policies or regulations or by the
California Department of Fish and game or U. S. Fish and
wildlife Services?
B. Have a substantial adverse impact on any riparian habitat
or natural community identified in local or regional plans,
policies, and regulations or by the California Department
of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and wildlife Service?
C. Adversely impact federally protected wetlands either
individually or in combination with the known or probable
impacts of other activities through direct removal, filling
hydrological interruption, or other means?
D. Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting
biological resources, such as tree preservation policy or
ordinance?
No Impact
The City of Santa Ana General Plan Land Use Element EIR
indicates that Santa Ana is predominantly built-out and that all
sizable expanses of undisturbed native vegetation have been
eliminated. Approval and implementation of the proposed
amendments to the residential standards would not result in
impacts to any biological resource, in that the proposed
amendment would not allow or facilitate development within
biological resources or directly involve any activities that
would impact biological resources.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any adverse impacts to biological resources.

IV. CULTURAL RESOURCES
A. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a
historical resource as defined in Section 15064.5?
B. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a
unique archaeological resource pursuant to Section 15064.5?
C. Directly or indirectly disturb or destroy a unique
paleontogical resource or site?
D. Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of
formal cemeteries.
No Impact
According to the City of Santa Ana General plan Land Use Element
EIR, Santa Ana is known to contain both historical and
archaeological resources. There is also the probability that
unknown human remains could exist in the City.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential development would not result in impacts to any known
or unknown cultural resources. While single family residential
land uses developed under the amended standards could result in
impacts to cultural resources, the city's development review
process would evaluate potential impacts to cultural resources.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any adverse impacts to cultural resources.
V. GEOLOGY/SOILS
A-1. Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the
most recent Alquist-priolo Earthquake Fault zoning Map
issued by the State geologist for the area or based on
other substantial evidence of a known fault?
A-2. Strong seismic ground shaking?
A-3. Seismic-related ground failure, inCluding liquefaction?
A-4. Landslides
No Impact
According to the City of Santa Ana General Plan Land Use Element
EIR, there are no active earthquake faults, Alquist-Priolo
7SS451
Earthquake Zones or landslides within the City. However,
several active faults are located within fifty miles of the
Ci ty. In the event a moderate to high earthquake occurs along
one of these faults, portions of the City could experience
moderate seismic shaking. Additionally, according to the
General Plan EIR the potential for liquefaction within the City
ranges from very low to very high.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not increase the potential for
seismic impacts, liquefaction or landslide impacts, in that the
proposed amendment would not directly involve the construction
of any structures. Potential seismic and liquefaction impacts
associated with the proposed ordinance amendment would be
considered less than significant. While single family
residential land uses developed under the amended standards
could result in impacts to proposed structures, the city's
development review process would evaluate potential seismic,
liquefaction and landslide impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not be subj ect
to significant seismic impacts.

The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
significant erosion impacts.
C. Would the project result in the loss of a unique geological
feature?
No Impact
According to the City of Santa Ana General Plan Land Use Element
EIR, there are no known unique geologic features in the City.
Approval of the proposed zoning ordinance amendment would not
result in the loss of any unique geologic feature.
D. In the project located on strata or soil that is unstable
or that would become unstable as a result of the project
and potentially result in on-or off-site landslide, lateral
spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse?
E. Where sewers are not available for the disposal of
wastewater is the soil capable of supporting the use of
septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems?
No Impact
According to the City's General Plan, the City of Santa Ana
contains a wide range of soil types and associated conditions
and constraints. Approval of the proposed amendment to the
single family residential standards would not be impacted by any
soil constraints, in that the proposed amendment would not
directly involve the construction of any structures. While
single family residential land uses developed under the amended
standards could be subject to soil constraints, the city's
development review process would evaluate future single family
land uses for potential soil constraints.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not be subject
to any soil constraints.

or other flood hazard delineation map?
I. Result in an increase in pollutant discharges to receiving
waters?
N. Tributary to an already impaired water body, as listed on
the Clean Water Act Section 303 (d) list. If so, can it
result in an increase in any pollutant of which the body is
already impaired?
O. Tributary to other environmentally sensitive areas? If so,
can it exacerbate already existing sensitive conditions?
P. Have a potentially significant environmental impact or
surface water quality to either marine, fresh or wetland
waters?
R. Cause or contribute to an exceedance of applicable surface
or groundwater receiving water quality objectives or
degradation of beneficial uses?
S. Impact aquatic, wetland or riparian habitat?
No Impact
The City of Santa Ana is included within four watersheds, San
Diego Creek, Santa Ana River, Talbert and Westminster. Each of
these watershed areas are under the jurisdiction of the Santa
Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board and subject to the
objectives, water quality standards and Best Management Practice
requirements established in the Santa Ana River Basin Plan and

The primary source of potential adverse water quality impacts
within the City is from nuisance flows. Nuisance flows is
defined as runoff that occurs during periods that are not
usually associated with rainfall, and are most commonly produced
from landscaping irrigation, leaking pipes, and water used to
wash off surfaces tributary to the street. Since nuisance flows
usually originates in the street, they commonly contain many
75Bn55
common pollutants found in streets such as oil and grease and
sediment. Additionally, surface water runoff generated from the
project site during construction operations can be degraded
potentially resulting in adverse water quality impacts to
downstream receiving waters.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not result in or increase the
potential for water quality impacts, in that the proposed
amendment would not involve any activities that would result in
long-term or short-term water quality impacts. However, single
family residential land uses developed under the amended
standards could result in long-term operation and short-term
construction related water quality impacts. Through the City's
development review process, single-family residential land uses
developed under the amended standards would be evaluated for
potential water quality impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any significant water quality impacts.

No Impact
The City of Santa Ana receives 66% of its water from underground
water supplies. The underground water basin in the City ranges
from -50 feet to +40 feet, above sea level.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not result in adverse impacts to
underground water supplies, in that the proposed amendment would
not involve any activities that would impact the underground
water basin. However, single-family residential land uses
developed under the amended standards could result in impacts to
the underground water basin. Through the City's development
review process, single-family residential land uses developed
75~6
under the amended standards would be evaluated for potential
ground water impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
significant impacts to underground water supplies.
C. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site
or area, including through the alteration of the course of
stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount
of surface runoff in a manner, which would result in flooding
on or off-site?
D. Create or contribute runoff water which, would exceed the
capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems
or provide substantial additional sources of polluted run-off?
L. Result in increased impervious surfaces and associated runoff?
M. Create a significant adverse environmental impact to drainage
patterns due to changes in runoff flow rates or volumes.
No Impacts
The City of Santa Ana has a Master plan of Drainage to guide the
construction of drainage facilities in the City. The existing
drainage facilities in the City include a series of underground
storm drain systems, open storm drain systems, catch basins and
natural drainages. A significant drainage impact can occur when
existing rates of surface water runoff are increased and
existing drainage facilities are unable to accommodate the
additional rates of runoff. Existing rates of surface water
runoff can increase through the introduction of additional
amounts of impervious surfaces, or through changes to existing
drainage patterns.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not alter existing drainage patterns
or increase existing rates of surface water runoff, in that the
proposed amendment would not involve any activities that would
impact existing drainage patterns or increase existing rates of
surface water runoff. However, single-family residential land
uses developed under the amended standards could result in
drainage impacts. Through the City's development review process,
single-family land uses developed under the amended standards
would be evaluated for potential drainage impacts.
75Bn57
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not result in
any significant drainage impacts.
F. Place housing within a 100-year floodplain, as mapped on a
federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map
or other flood hazard delineation map?
G. Place within a 100-year floOdplain structures which would
impede or redirect flood flows?
H. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss,
injury, or death involving flooding, including flooding as
a result of failure of a levee or dam.
No Impact
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not increase the risk of 100-year
flood impacts, in that the proposed amendment does not involve
the construction of any permanent structures within any
designated flood zones. However, single-family dwellings
developed under the amended standards could be subject to
potential flood impacts. Through the City's development review
process, single-family dwellings developed under the amended
standards would be evaluated for potential flood impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and
Specific Development No. 40 zone district would not be subject
to flood impacts.
J. Result in significant alteration of receiving water quality
during or following construction.
K. Could the proposed project result in increased erosion
downstream?
No Impact
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not result in or increase the
potential for soil erosion or sedimentation impacts, in that the
75a~58
proposed zoning ordinance amendment would not involve any
construction activities that would disturb or uncover soils.
Through the City's development reVlew process, single-family
land uses developed under the amended standards would be
evaluated for potential water quality erosion impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,

No Impact
According to the City's General Plan Land Use Element EIR, there
are no sensitive marine waters, fresh waters or wetlands in the
City. However, the City does contain several local drainage
systems that convey drainage flows to sensitive marine
resources. Pollutants conveyed through these drainage systems
could adversely impact sensitive marine resources.
Approval of the proposed amendment to the single family
residential standards would not result in or increase the
potential for water quality impacts, in that the proposed
ordinance amendment would not involve any activities that would
result in long-term or short-term water quality impacts.
However, single-family residential land uses developed under the
amended standards could result in long-term operation and short-
term construction related water quality impacts. Through the
City's development review process, single-family land uses
developed under the amended standards would be evaluated for
potential water quality impacts.
The amendments to correct, clarify and update residential front
yard fences, definitions, second dwellings units, laundromats,
vending machines, townhouses, specific development standards and

ORDINANCE NO. NS-XX
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA AMENDING CHAPTER 41 OF
THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING
SINGLE FAMILY DEVELOPMENT, VENDING
MACHINES, SECOND DWELLING UNITS,
DEFINITIONS, LAUNDROMATS AND TOWNHOUSE
STANDARDS (ZOA 2004-07)
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. The current code sections that regulate single family dwelling
development were adopted in 1986. These sections have basically
remained unchanged for the last 20 years, which has resulted in
regulations that are not in concert with the current housing trends. As a
result, many of the sections are obsolete and in need of updating.

(new language shown

Section 41-608 is hereby amended to read as follows
in bold, deleted language shown in strikeout for tracking
Sec. 41-608. Same--Modifications in yard regulations.
The following modifications in yard regulations may be undertaken:
(a) Since the general yard provisions of this chapter have to be
applied to numerous types of conditions and shapes of
parcels occasioned by varying street layouts and
subdivisions of property, it is not advisable to attempt to
define herein those cases which warrant exceptions and
modifications to the general yard requirements of this
chapter, therefore, authority is hereby given the zoning
administrator, as a part of his administrative function, to
determine in writing the application of the specific
requirements of this chapter in harmony with their purpose
and intent so that the spirit of the chapter shall be observed,
public peace, health, safety, and welfare secured, and
substantial justice done under the following circumstances:
(b) Where the application of yard regulations cannot be
determined or may be interpreted in more than one way as
to cause confusion in the administration of such regulations
or general yard provisions with respect to irregularly shaped
lots such as those resulting from some angular or curved
streets, particularly triangular or gore irregular shaped lots
with more than four (4) lot lines, or reverse corner lots
developed in such a manner where the front yard is unclear
such regulations or provisions may be modified or
interpreted by the zoning administrator in writing as to an
individual lot or to all lots of similar type involving a common
problem and the building shall be governed by such
interpretation. No fence or accessory building, the location of
Ordinance No. NS-XX
Page 18 of 25
758-90
which is determined in whole or in part by yards, shall be
erected or established upon any lot which is so irregularly or
oddly shaped as to cause confusion relative to interpretation
of such regulations until the yard provisions of this chapter
shall have been determined as set forth above.
(c) The zoning administrator may, as a part of his administrative
function, authorize a ten (10) per cent reduction in required
side, front, and/or rear yard provided said determination shall
be in writing and show that the reduction is in harmony with
the purpose and intent of this chapter.
(d) The zoning administrator may, as part of his administrative
function, authorize a temporary directional sign in permitted
districts if said sign complies with all planning department
standards set out below. Said authorization shall be in
writing with the following conditions of approval:
(1) That the proposed temporary directional sign be not
larger than ten feet by twenty feet (10' by 20'); said
sign shall be nonilluminated in any residential or
professional district, and non-flashing in any
commercial or industrial district.
(2) That the sign be not more than thirty-five (35) feet in
overall height from the ground.
(3) That the sign not be located on or project into any
existing or future city right-of-way or any building
setback.
(4) That the zoning administrator may grant a six (6)
month extension of time at the expiration date of the
initial six (6) month period if it has been determined
that said extension of time is necessary for the initial
sale of homes in the tract. Said extension shall
require a five dollar ($5.00) fee.
(5) That the applicant post a cash bond in the amount
determined by the director of building safety and
housing to guarantee the removal of each sign at the
expiration of the period of the conditional use permit,
and that the applicant and/or the owner of the
property on which the sign is located enter into an
agreement with the city authorizing the city to enter
upon the premises, destroy the sign, and declare the
Ordinance No. NS-XX
Page 19 of 25
758-91
cash bond forfeited should said sign not be removed
upon the expiration of the conditional use permit.
However, the planning director may determine to circulate
public notice and hold a public hearing when a proposed temporary
directional sign is so located as to be of importance to the adjoining
property owners or be in conflict with the orderly development of
the area.
The requirement of a plot plan, cash bond, and legal
agreement shall be fulfilled prior to planning department approval of
a building permit.
