DISCUSSION In June 2005, the City Council approved numerous entitlements for Nexus Development Corporation to allow a mixed-use project within Hutton Centre. The entitlements allow three 25-story residential towers, a 279- unit mid-rise residential project, a five-story condominium/office building and about 14,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space. In conjunction with this project, Nexus has been preparing a marketing and branding program for the Hut ton Centre and MacArthur Place areas. After considering several alternatives, Nexus is proposing to brand the Hutton Centre district "MacArthur Place," effectively joining both sides of MacArthur Boulevard into one major development area. Included in the branding program is a request to rename three existing streets. Pursuant to Sections 33-5 through 33-8 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, public streets may be renamed if the new name assists in identifying a distinct development area. The first street segment, located north of MacArthur Boulevard within MacArthur Place, is currently identified as Imperial Promenade. This segment is proposed to be changed to MacArthur Place. One building, the Austin Building (at 3 Imperial Promenade) will require a change of address. The second segment, located south of MacArthur Boulevard and north of Sandpointe Avenue, is currently known as Hutton Centre Drive. This segment is proposed to be changed to MacArthur Place (Exhibit 1). No building addresses are located on this street segment. Finally, the third street name proposed to be changed is Hutton Centre Loop, which is proposed to be changed to Hutton Drive. EXHIBIT A 39A-2 Street Naming No. 2006-01 June 12, 2006 Page 2 The street name changes are anticipated to have minimal impact on existing businesses, including the approximately 40 tenants of the 3 Imperial Promenade building. Listed below are the current and proposed addresses of the buildings existing and/or proposed along these street segments: Current Address Proposed Address Status 3 Imperial Promenade 3 MacArthur Place Existing 1 Hutton Centre 10 MacArthur Place Proposed (Cinema Tower) 2 to 7 Hutton Centre 2 to 7 Hutton Drive Existing 9 Hutton Centre 9 MacArthur Place Proposed (North Lake Tower) 15 MacArthur Place Proposed (South Lake Tower) 10 Hutton Centre 12 MacArthur Place Proposed (Cinema Loft) In order to maintain continuity with the City's addressing system and the existing addresses within Hutton Centre, the future buildings will be addressed in sequence with the existing addresses. This addressing approach will allow for quick identification and a more immediate response time by the City's emergency response functions. This request has been reviewed by both the Fire and Police Departments and will not have any adverse affect on their ability to provide emergency response services. Nexus has met with several stakeholders in the area regarding the street renaming proposal, including the property owner for 3 Imperial Promenade, the only building directly impacted by the request. The building property owner does not oppose the street name change as proposed (Exhibit 2). As part of the public hearing notification process, the City has also mailed notices to the 40 tenants currently occupying the building. Nexus has proposed delaying the implementation of the street name change until 90 days after the top off of 9 Hutton Centre, which is approximately 90 days prior to occupancy of the Lake Towers project. This will allow the 3 Imperial Promenade tenants 39A-3 Street Naming No. 2006-01 June 12, 2006 Page 3 additional time to revise stationery and other print material. Additionally, Nexus has obtained support from the Hutton Centre Association on both the street name and branding program for the area. Nexus has also reviewed the request with Coastal Rim Properties, the developer of the Promenade pointe (formerly Geneva Commons) and First American Title Company. Although neither proj ect is directly impacted by the request, they have indicated support for the street name and branding of the district. Approval of the new street name will benefit the community by assisting in reinforcing the identity of the district. It will also assist in the implementation of the branding program for the area, which will assist in generating sales for the project. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Street Naming No. 2006-01. CEQA Compliance In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301. This Class 1 exemption allows minor alterations to the operation and licensing of public streets. Categorical Exemption No. 2006-89 will be filed for this project. !
