A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING SITE PLAN
REVIEW NO. 2017-01 AS CONDITIONED TO ALLOW AN
EXPANSION AND EXTERIOR REMODEL AT THE
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1405 SOUTH AUTO MALL
DRIVE
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. Applicant is requesting approval of Site Plan Review No. 2017-01 to allow
an expansion and remodel at an automobile dealership building at the
property located at 1405 South Auto Mall Drive.
B. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-593.5(c) requires a review by the
Planning Commission of all plans within a specific development (SD) plan
area to ensure the project is in conformity with the Specific Plan.
C. Site Plan Review No. 2017-01 came before the Planning Commission of
the City of Santa Ana on April 24, 2017.
D. The project is in compliance with all applicable development standards
outlined within the Specific Development Plan (SD -60).
E. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the
recommendation is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15302.
This Class 2 exemption applies to projects consisting of replacement or
reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure
will be located on the same site as the structure to be replaced and will
have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure
replaced. Specifically, the project conforms to Section 15302 (b), which
involves replacement of a commercial structure with a new structure of
substantially the same size, purpose, and capacity. The replacement
structure proposed as part of the project will result in a negligible increase
in square footage and will not increase the capacity of the site in any
substantive fashion so as to negatively affect the environment or
surrounding properties. Based on these criteria and on staffs analysis,
Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2015-91 will be filed for
this project.
