CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL FOR SITE PLAN REVIEW NO. 2001-05
Site Plan Review No. 01-05 is approved subject to compliance, to the reasonable
satisfaction of the Planning Manager, with applicable sections of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code, the California Administrative Code, the Uniform Fire Code, the Uniform
Building Code, and all other applicable regulations. In addition, it shall meet the
following conditions of approval:
The applicant must comply with each and every condition listed below rip or to exercising
the rights conferred by this site plan review.
The applicant must remain in compliance with all conditions listed below throughout the
life of the development project. Failure to comply with each and every condition may
result in the revocation of the site plan review approval.
A. Planning Division
1. The project must remain in compliance with the projects Site Plan Review
comments (DP No. 01-12).
2. Any amendment to the project must be submitted to the Planning Division
• for review. If it is determined that the amendment constitutes a significant
change to the project, the item must be submitted to the Planning
Commission for review.
Mitigation Measures
3. To ensure an acceptable noise environment adjacent to the project site,
construction activities shall be limited to the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00
p.m., Monday through Saturday. In addition, construction traffic should
be routed away from residential areas.
4. Control fugitive dust by regular watering, paring construction roads, or
other dust palliative measures per the requirements of SCAQMD.
5. Phase and schedule construction activities to level emission peaks.
6. Maintain equipment engines in proper tune..
7. Discontinue construction during first and second stage smog alerts.
8. Encourage the use of alternate transportation modes by promoting
public transit usage and providing secure bicycle facilities and

preferential rates or locations for ride pools. The project Should provide
incentives for working and living within the local area.
9. Provide mass transit accommodations such as bus turnout lanes, park
and ride areas, and bus shelters. The project should provide mini-buses
for individuals working in these buildings.
10. Encourage formation of vanpools with company vehicles or subsidy and
encourage public transit with free transit-passes. Work with OCTA to
expand scheduled bus service and implement long-term public
transportation projects. Evaluate for subscription bus service for areas
where there are large concentrations of employees.
11. Encourage employers to provide staggered work schedules; flex-time,
compressed work weeks or other non-traditional work scheduling.
12. The grading and foundation plans, including foundation loads, shall be
reviewed by a Registered Soils Engineer.
13. Prior to excavation of the project site, a soils test must be conducted by
a Registered Soils Engineer to determine specific site constraints and
appropriate mitigation measures.
• 14. All grading and earthwork shall be performed under the observation of a
Registered Geotechnical Engineer in order to achieve proper subgrade
preparation, selection of satisfactory materials, and placement and
compaction of all structural fill.
15. The Soils Engineer shall be notified in the event that subsurface
conditions are exposed during construction which are significantly
different from those described in geotechnical investigation.
16. If necessary, site preparation or foundation work must be completed to
correct potential differential compaction and expansive soil conditions,
according to accepted engineering standards.
17. Mitigation of potential settlement can be achieved in a variety of ways
depending on the particular earth materials present and the type of
development to be achieved. For high-rise structures, special
foundations, caissons, or piles may be needed to avoid the potential for
differential or excessive settlement.
18. The developer shall install a drainage system that adequately accepts
and conveys runoff from the site to regional storm drain facilities.
•
CGN: 8/2/01
• 19. Plans for all proposed storm drain facilities shall be subject to the
approval of the City Engineer and the County of Orange.
