NS-2839 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA ZONING THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 300 EAST MCFADDEN AVENUE FROM SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE (R1) TO OPEN SPACE LAND (O) (AA NO. 2012-01) THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana does hereby find, determine and declare as follows: A. The Applicant is requesting adoption and approval of Amendment Application No. 2012-01 and General Plan Amendment No. 2012-01 to allow a new 1.4 acre public park site at 300 East McFadden Avenue. B. On September 10, 2012, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing and voted to recommend that the City Council: Adopt an ordinance approving Amendment Application No. 2012-01. 2. Adopt a resolution approving General Plan Amendment No. 2012-01. C. Amendment Application No. 2012-01 came before the City Council of the City of Santa Ana for a duly noticed public hearing on October 1, 2012, to consider all testimony, written and oral. D. Amendment Application No. 2012-01 has been filed with the City of Santa Ana to zone the property located at 300 East McFadden Avenue from Single-Family Residence (R1) to Open Space Land (O). E. The proposed project area is currently within the Single Family Residence (R1) zoning district, which does not identify permanent park open space as a permitted use. The proposed amendment application (zone change) is needed to change the zoning for the 1.4 acre site from Single-Family Residence (R1) to Open Space Land (O) to facilitate construction of a public park to serve the surrounding community. F. The creation of additional public open space or park land implements the City's General Plan Parks, Recreation and Open Space Element goal to "provide sufficient open space to meet the recreational and aesthetic needs of the community." The Land Use Element establishes the City goal to "promote a balance of land uses to address basic community needs", and ORDINANCE NO. NS-2839 Page 1 of 4 Policy 1.7 to "support open space in underserved area" like the project area. The change to an Open Space land use designation will provide an additional 60,984 square feet, or 1.4 acres, towards public parkland, helping the City towards achieving its goal of a minimum two acres of public parkland per 1,000 residents. The proposed park design will also support the policies and programs in the Conservation Element to encourage water conservation and the use of drought resistant landscape. G. The City Council has weighed and balanced the general plan's policies and has determined that based upon this balancing that the project at 300 East McFadden Avenue is consistent with the purpose of the general plan. H. The City Council also adopts as findings all facts presented in the Request for Council Action dated October 1, 2012, accompanying this matter. For these reasons, and each of them, Amendment Application No. 2012-01 is hereby found and determined to be consistent with the General Plan of the City of Santa Ana and otherwise justified by the public necessity, convenience, and general welfare. General Plan Amendment No. 2012-01 also came before the City Council on October 1, 2012. This ordinance incorporates by reference, as though fully set forth herein, the General Plan Amendment in support of this ordinance and the findings made herein. Section 2. The real property located at 300 East McFadden Avenue is hereby zoned from Single-Family Residence (R1) to Open Space Land (O). (AA No. 2012-01) The amended zoning map showing the above described change in use district designation is hereby approved and attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated by this reference as though fully set forth herein. This decision is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes but is not limited to: the Request for Council Action dated October 1, 2012, and exhibits attached thereto and the public testimony written and oral, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference. Section 3. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or portion of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance.
