RESOLUTION NO. 2017-044
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA APPROVING NEGATIVE DECLARATION,
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW NO. 2017-24 AND GENERAL
PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2017-01 FOR THE PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 317 EAST SEVENTEENTH STREET
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. Community Development Partners (Applicant) is requesting approval of General
Plan Amendment No. 2017-01 to amend the General Plan land use designation of
the property located at 317 East Seventeenth Street (legal description attached
hereto as Exhibit A) from General Commercial (GC) and Medium Density
Residential (MR -15) to Urban Neighborhood (UN) and to update text portions of the
City's Land Use Element to reflect this change in order to facilitate the construction
of a 57 -unit supportive housing project on the .90 -acre property.
B. On May 1, 2017, pursuant to Senate Bill 18, the City mailed consultation letters
to all tribes listed on the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Tribal
Consultation List. The City is in the process of consulting with the tribes.
C. On May 22, 2017, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana held a
duly noticed public hearing and voted to recommend that the City Council adopt a
resolution adopting Negative Declaration, Environmental Review No. 2017-24 and
approving General Plan Amendment No. 2017-01.
D. On June 20, 2017, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana held a duly
noticed public hearing to consider all testimony, written and oral, related to
General Plan Amendment No. 2017-01, at which time all persons wishing to
testify were heard, the project was fully considered, and all other legal
prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution occurred.
E. General Plan Amendment No. 2017-01 has been filed to amend the General
Plan to change the land use designation of the property at 317 East Seventeenth
Street from General Commercial (GC) and Medium Density Residential (MR -15) to
Urban Neighborhood (UN).
1. The existing General Plan land use designations for the project area are
General Commercial (GC), which allows business and professional offices;
retail and service establishments; recreational, cultural, and entertainment uses
Resolution No. 2017-044
Page 1 of 6
and vocational schools with a floor area ratio of 0.5 to 1.0 and Medium Density
Residential (MR -15) Low Density Residential (LR -7), which allows for residential
uses at densities of up to 15 units per acre. In order to facilitate the construction
of a 57 -unit supportive housing project with a floor area ratio of 1.3, the land use
designation needs to be changed to Urban Neighborhood (UN), which allows for
a mix of residential uses and housing types, such as mid to low rise multiple
family, townhouses, single family dwellings; with some opportunities for live -
work, neighborhood serving retail and service, public space and use, and other
amenities with a floor area ratio of 0.5 to 3.0.
2. The proposed project will support several goals and policies of the General
Plan. First, the project is consistent with Housing Element Goal 2, to create
diversity of quality housing, affordability levels, and living experiences that
accommodate Santa Ana's residents and workforce of all household types,
income levels, and age groups to foster an inclusive community. The project will
provide 56 -affordable rental housing units and one (1) onsite property
manager's unit which supports Housing Element Goal 3, increased
opportunities for low and moderate income individuals and families to find
quality housing opportunities and afford a greater choice of rental or
homeownership opportunities. The supportive housing project is in line with
Housing Element Goal 4, to provide adequate rental and ownership housing
opportunities and supportive services for seniors, people with disabilities,
families with children, and people needing emergency, transitional, or
supportive housing. Further, the project is consistent with several Housing
Element policies; Policy HE -2.3 to encourage construction of rental housing for
the city's residents and workforce; Policy HE -3.4 to support the provision of
employment training, childcare services, rental assistance, youth services, and
other community services that enable households to attain the greatest level of
self-sufficiency and independence; Policy HE -4.4 to support the provision of
supportive services and service -enriched housing for persons with special
needs, such as seniors, disabled people, homeless people, families, veterans
and people with medical conditions; Policy HE -4.6 to partner with community
service organizations that address the needs of homeless people, including
housing linked with case management, employment, physical, mental health,
substance abuse, and other services.
F. The City Council has weighed and balanced the General Plan's policies, both
new and old, and has determined that based upon this balancing that General
Plan Amendment No. 2017-01 is consistent with the purpose of the general plan.
Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information
contained in the initial study and the negative declaration (ND), Environmental Review
No. 2017-24, 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, a ND adequately addresses the expected environmental
impacts of this project. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds that there is no
evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the project will have a significant
Resolution No. 2017-044
Page 2 of 6
adverse effect on the environment. The City Council hereby certifies and approves the
ND and directs that the Notice of Determination be prepared and filed with the County
Clerk of the County of Orange in the manner required by law.
Pursuant to Title XIV, California Code of Regulations (CCR) § 735.5(c)(1), the
City Council has determined that, after considering the record as a whole, there is no
evidence that the proposed Project will have the potential for any significant adverse
effect on wildlife resources or the ecological habitat upon which wildlife resources
depend. The proposed Project exists in an urban environment characterized by paved
concrete, roadways, surrounding buildings and human activity. However, pursuant to
Fish and Game Code § 711.2 and Title XIV, CCR § 735.5, the payment of Fish and
Game Department filing fees in conjunction with this project is at the discretion of the
State of California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Section 3. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana after conducting the
public hearing hereby approves General Plan Amendment No. 2017-01. The
amendments to the Land Use Element are attached hereto as Exhibit B and
incorporated herein 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 June 20, 2017, and exhibits attached
hereto; and the public testimony, written and oral, all of which are incorporated herein
by this reference.
Section 4. This Resolution shall not be effective unless and until Ordinance No.
NS -2920 (AA No. 2017-01) becomes effective. If said ordinance is for any reason held to
be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, or
otherwise does not go into effect for any reason, then this resolution shall be null and void
and have no further force and effect.
Section 5. The Applicant agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the
City of Santa Ana, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, from any and all liability,
claims, actions or proceedings that may be brought arising out of its approval of this
project, and any approvals associated with the project, including, without limitation, any
environmental review or approval, except to the extent caused by the sole negligence of
the City of Santa Ana.
Section 6. This decision rendered by the City Council of the City of Santa Ana
is final and is subject to judicial review pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure
section 1094.6. The Planning and Building Agency shall give direct notice to the
Applicant of the City Council's decisions and these findings.

areas. To encourage a dynamic mixture of residential, office and commercial uses,
within these areas both building intensity and residential density is based on floor
area ratio and zoning development standards. In calculating either the allowable
floor area or the allowable residential density, it is the City's policy to not allow
upward rounding. The Land Use Plan is illustrated in Exhibit 2. Additional
information concerning the Land Use Plan and the land use designations is
provided in Table I (Land Use Development Intensity Standards), and in the
Appendix.

LAND USE PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
To effectively achieve the broad range of goals outlined for the City's future
growth and development, a variety of plans, programs, and regulations must be
relied upon. This section of the Element discusses these tools, and how thev
correlate with implementation of the City's land use goals.
DEVELOPMENT INTENSITY STANDARDS
"Cable A- I summarizes the development intensity standard for each of the General
Plan designations, and provides land use distribution by acreage for the land use.
The intensity standards for the categories permitting residential development are
expressed in density, measured in "units per acre," or floor area ratio and zoning
development standards in the case of certain Mixed Use land use designations.
The intensity standards for non-residential development are expressed as "floor
area ratio" or FAR. The FAR concept is illustrated in Exhibit A-3. The intensity
standards in concert with the zoning and development standards regulate the
massing, form and building size.

LAND USE EL -HENT
Residential
The Land Use Plan provides for three distinct residential land use designations.
Residential development is also permitted in two other designations: District
Center and Urban Neighborhood. The Santa Ana Land Use Plan includes the
following residential land use designations:
• The Low Density Residential (LR -7) designation applies to those areas of
the City which are developed with lower density residential land uses. The
allowable maximum development intensity is 7 units per acre. Development
in this category is characterized primarily by single-family homes. This
designation applies to a large proportion of the City (6,958.3 acres)
representing 97 percent of the City's total land area.
• The Low -Medium Density Residential (LMR -11) designation applies to
those sections of the City which are developed with residential uses at
permitted densities of up to 11 units per acre. The land area included in this
designation is approximately 920.6 acres. The great majority of the land
designated as Low -Medium Density Residential is located in the westerly
portion of the City, north and south of First Street. Properties with this
designation are typically characterized by mobile home parks, a mixture of
duplexes and single family residences, or small lot subdivisions.
• The Medium Density Residential (MR -15) designation applies to those
sections of the City which are developed with residential uses at densities of
up to 15 units per acre. Development in this designation is characterized by
duplexes, apartments, or a combination of both. A total of 370.1 acres is
designated as Medium Density Residential. The designation applies to areas
located in the vicinity of downtown, areas north and south of MacArthur
Boulevard, and in other areas where there are established multiple -family
development projects.

LAND USE ELEMENT
The General Commercial (GC) district applies to commercial corridors in
Santa Ana including those located along Main Street, Seventeenth Street,
Harbor Boulevard, and other major arterial roadways in the City. The
intensity standard applicable to this designation is a floor area ratio of 0.5 -
1.0, though most General Commercial districts have a FAR of 0.5. A total of
883.2 acres of land is included in this designation.
General Commercial districts are key components in the economic
development of the City. They provide highly visible and accessible
commercial development along the City's arterial transportation corridors. In
addition, General Commercial land uses provide important neighborhood
facilities and services, including shopping, recreation, cultural and
entertainment activities, employment, and education. The districts also
provide support facilities and services for industrial areas including office and
retail, restaurants and various other services.
The General Commercial development standards are based upon the
character and intensity of development, as well as the degree of access and
market demand for these properties. The relationships to adjacent land uses,
are also considered. Uses typically located in this district are:
• Business and professional offices;
• Retail and service establishments;
• Recreational, cultural, and entertainment uses; and
• Vocational schools.
General Commercial Districts have a floor area ratio of0.5 with the exception
of the Mid -town area which has an floor area ratio of up to 1.0.
One Broadway Plaza District Center is a separate land use designation as it
has an F.A.R. of 2.9, which exceeds the typical District Center intensity limit.
Additionally, it does not include a residential component. One Broadway
Plaza is envisioned as a landmark professional office complex that will be a
focal point in the Downtown Redevelopment area serving the Civic Center
complex, Downtown, and Nfidtown urban areas. The City's District Centers
and major development areas are shown in Exhibit A-5.
CITY OF ;A. 1TA ANA GENERAL PLAN

LAND USE E EMENT
The intensity standard for the Urban Neighborhood ranges from a
floor area ration of 0.5 to 3.0; with residential density based on a
combination of floor area ratio and zoning development standards.
A total of 276.9 acres of land in the City are designated Urban
Neighborhood.
Industrial
The Industrial designation applies to those areas developed with manufacturing
and industrial uses. The designation applies to areas which are predominantly
industrial in character, and includes those industrial districts in the southwestern,
south central and southeastern sections of the City. A total of 2,152.8 acres of land
in the City is designated as Industrial. The maximum floor area ratio for this
designation is 0.45.
The Industrial districts of the City are vital to its economic health. These areas
provide employment opportunities for local residents, and generate municipal
revenues for continued economic development. As one of the County's oldest
cities, Santa Ana has long been an industrial center for the region. The City's goal
is to maintain this strong industrial base by setting land use policies which
preclude the intrusion of less intensive commercial or residential uses. Typical
uses found in this district include the following:
Light and heavy product manufacturing and assembly.
Commercial uses which are ancillary to industrial uses in the district.
Institutional
The Institutional designation includes the Civic Center, other governmental
facilities, City facilities and public institutions such as schools, etc. Only public
properties of approximately five acres or more are designated as Institutional. The
maximum applicable floor area ratio standard for this designation is 0.5. The 0.5
FAR is used as a guideline since most development in this designation are State,
federal, and local governmental facilities that are not subject to local development
regulations. A total of 796.3 acres of land is included in this designation.
Open Space
The Open Space designation is applied to parks, water channels, cemeteries and
other open space uses. A total of 1,015.8 acres are included in this land use
designation. Of this total, 358 acres of public park land is included in this land use
designation.

interagency Development Review Committee (DRC) to ensure consistent and
comprehensive application of City regulations and policies for all projects.
Redevelopment Plans. The City will apply redevelopment tools associated
with the implementation ofthe adopted redevelopment plans, as appropriate.
The City will encourage the further development of industrial, commercial,
and residential projects in suitable locations to strengthen the City's tax and
employment base.
Special Studies. In certain instances, a special study may be required to
address a particular issue. In these cases, a specific effort to identify staff
resources needed to conduct the appropriate investigation and analysis will be
identified.
Zoning Code Review. The zoning code serves as a primary tool used by the
City to regulate development. The City will develop a program to revise the
Zoning Ordinance to ensure that development regulations and standards are
consistent with community needs and high quality development. The City
will initiate appropriate changes to the ordinance to ensure, where
appropriate, conformity between the Land Use Element and Zoning Map.
LAND USE PLAN BUILDOUT
As indicated previously, the City of Santa Ana has been almost completely
developed for many years. As a result, any new development will necessarily
consist of redevelopment and infill development on the remaining vacant and
underutilized parcels. Many parcels with nonresidential land use designations
will never be developed to the maximum intensity permitted under the General
Plan.
Table A-4 indicates the development possible under the build -out of the Land
Use Plan. The build -out for residential land uses considered two scenarios.
Effective build -out for residential development is calculated by adding the 21,205
units possible in the areas designated as District Center and Urban Neighborhood
to the existing 74,588 units presently found in the City per Census 2000.
Theoretical build -out for residential development considered the development
possible if all of the areas designated as residential were developed according to
the permitted Land Use Plan intensities. Since the Land Use Element does not
contemplate the elimination ofexisting housing in the City, the effective build -out
figure represents a more realistic estimate of Future residential development.
As indicated in Table A-4, three ofthe non-residential land use designations have
a range in FAR intensities. For the non-residential land use designations, effective
build -out considered the development possible under the lower range of FAR
intensities while theoretical build -out considered the upper FAR range.'fypically,
parking and landscaping requirements will result in significantly less floor area
for commercial and industrial developments than that which is permitted under
the General Plan.
CITY OF SANTA ANA GENERAL PLAN
A-33
LAND USE ELEMENT
As indicated in Table A-4, between 55,391 to 95,736 housing units are allowed by
the Land Use Plan. The additional units which presently exist in the City beyond
the maximum number permitted under the theoretical buildout scenario are a
reflection ofthe higher density multiple -family developments constructed in the
1970's and 1980's. However, the purpose of the Land Use Plan as it applies to the
residential areas is to preserve and maintain the stability of existing
neighborhoods, regardless of the character of development. The intent of the Plan
is not to create any displacement, nor decrease existing development densities.
Rather, it is to ensure a safe, healthy, and livable environment for City residents.
Existing residential development entitlements are protected through this Land
Use Element, applicable Zoning regulations, and sections of the City code
pertaining to legal nonconforming uses.
The Land Use Elements implementation may result in an increase in the
amount of commercial, office, and industrial development in the City. As
indicated in Table A-4, up to 33,156,565 square feet of commercial and office
development, and 42,199,991 square feet of industrial development are possible
under the effective capacity parameters of Land Use Plan.
