A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA
APPROVING AN ADDENDUM TO THE MITIGATED NEGATIVE
DECLARATION AND MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM,
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW NO. 2011-46 FOR THE PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 200 EAST FIRST AMERICAN WAY
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. First Rock Santa Ana, LLC, development entity for Genesis Real Estate
Group, is requesting the approval and adoption of an addendum to the
Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Program,
Environmental Review No. 2011-46, to accurately coincide with the project
as detailed in amended Development Agreement No. 2012-01, and to
facilitate a change in ownership to First Rock for The Met development
project located at 200 East First American Way.
B. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana held a duly noticed
public hearing on July 8, 2013, and voted to recommend that the City
Council approve and adopt the addendum to the Mitigated Negative
Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Program, Environmental Review No.
2011-46.
Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information
contained in the addendum to the mitigated negative declaration and mitigation
monitoring program, Environmental Review No. 2011-46, prepared with respect to this
Project. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence
presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, the
addendum to the mitigated negative declaration and mitigation monitoring program
adequately addresses the expected environmental impacts of this Project. On the basis
of this review, the City Council again finds that there is no evidence from which it can be
fairly argued that the Project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment.
The City Council hereby certifies and approves the addendum to the mitigated negative
declaration and mitigation monitoring program and directs that any necessary Notice of
Determination be prepared and filed with the County Clerk of the County of Orange in
the manner required by law.
