Pursuant to the Law and the Ordinance, the City Council is required to levy the assessment annually, based on the recommendations set forth in the annual report of the Advisory Board.

DISCUSSION

Annual Advisory Board Report

In accordance with Ordinance No. 2782, the Board of Directors of the Garden Grove Tourism Promotion Corporation (GGTPC) serves as the Advisory Board. Pursuant to the Ordinance and the Law, the Advisory Board is required to submit an annual report to the City. The annual report is required to include the following:

• Any proposed changes in the boundaries of the GGTID or in any of the benefit zones;

• A description of the improvements and activities to be provided for the upcoming fiscal year;

• An estimate of the cost of providing the improvements and the activities for that fiscal year;

• The recommended method and basis of levying the assessment in sufficient detail to allow each business owner to estimate the amount of the assessment to be levied against his or her business for that fiscal year;

• The amount of any surplus or deficit revenues to be carried over from a previous fiscal year; and

• The amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than the assessments levied.

The Advisory Board's annual report serves as the basis for the levying of assessments each year.

The Advisory Board has prepared the annual report, which contains a proposed budget for use of the anticipated assessment revenues for the year. No changes are proposed (i) to the boundaries of the GGTID, (ii) in the GGTID improvements and activities authorized by Resolution No. 9009-10 and Ordinance No. 2782, or (iii) in the amount of the annual assessment or the method and basis for the levying the assessment.

The Advisory Board is recommending that the annual assessments for Fiscal Year 2024-25 continue to be two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the gross rent charged by the Operator per room occupancy per night for all transient occupancies for each visitor accommodation facility in Tier I and (ii) one-half percent (0.5%) of the gross rent charged by the operator 157
Item 211/2024

per room occupancy per night for all transient occupancies for each visitor accommodation facility in Tier II.

On February 22, 2011, the City Council approved an agreement with the Anaheim/Orange County Visitor & Convention Bureau ("VCB"), pursuant to which, approximately 80% of the GGTID assessment revenue collected is allocated to the VCB to fund collective tourism marketing efforts or retained by the City for future Harbor Boulevard median improvements and a future transit system.

The remaining (approximately 20%) of the GGTID assessment would be allocated to fund specific improvements along Harbor Boulevard and other tourism promotion activities in Garden Grove in accordance with the budget included in the annual report. These funds are administered by the GGTPC pursuant to an agreement with the GGTPC approved by the City Council on September 27, 2011.

Levying of Assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-25

State Law requires that each year the City Council adopt a Resolution declaring its intention to levy an annual assessment for the upcoming fiscal year ye based on the Advisory Board's Annual Report and scheduling a public hearing on the proposed assessment. The attached proposed Resolution contains the items required by State Law and sets a public hearing on the matter for May 28, 2024. After City Council adoption, the Resolution will be published in a local paper of general circulation at least ten (10) days before the public hearing pursuant to the Law.

At the Public Hearing scheduled for May 28, 2024, the City Council may order changes in any of the matters provided in the Advisory Board's Annual Report, including changes in the proposed assessments, the proposed improvements and activities to be funded, and the proposed boundaries of the area. At the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the City Council may adopt a Resolution confirming the annual report as originally filed or as changed by it.

The adoption of that Resolution shall constitute the levy of an assessment for the Fiscal Year 2024-25.

A similar Resolution must be adopted annually by the City Council in order to continue to levy the assessment in the succeeding fiscal years.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

It is not anticipated that the City will incur significant direct costs as a result of this action.

It is estimated that the GGTID will produce approximately $2.78 million in new annual revenues for Fiscal Year 2024-25 and $150,000 in carryover from fiscal year 2023-24 for local tourism promotion efforts, and most of these funds will be administered by the VCB and the GGTPC. Any actual administrative costs incurred by the City in relation to the GGTID will be reimbursed through assessment revenues, up to a percentage cap of assessments collected.

The GGTID improvements and activities to be provided in the upcoming fiscal year from GGTID assessment revenues and/or any other contributions from sources other than GGTID assessment revenues include:

A. Develop a new website will promote and market the Grove District as the leading leisure destination in Southern California. This endeavor aims to enhance our competitive positioning within both the consumer and travel trade sectors. These initiatives serve as a seamless extension of our partners' sales endeavors, providing a distinctive platform to showcase the latest hotel inventory, renovations, and new additions in dining, entertainment, and transportation infrastructure.

Grove District Sales & Marketing: The sales and marketing initiative will promote Garden Grove's assessed lodging businesses as premier tourist, meeting, and event destinations. The central theme of the program will focus on elevating the Garden Grove destination brand as a desirable location for overnight stays. The primary objective is to boost overnight visitation and room night sales at assessed lodging businesses. This comprehensive strategy may encompass various activities tailored to drive overnight visitation and room sales:
 Enhanced advertising and promotional campaigns across print, online, social media, and television platforms targeting potential visitors.
 Website enhancements and updates to optimize user experience and engagement.  Collaboration with strategic advertising and marketing agencies to maximize outreach.  Partnerships with third-party marketing and sales agencies to expand market reach.  Implementation of public relations campaigns, sales blitzes, missions, and calls to attract visitors.
 Creation and distribution of collateral promotional materials such as visitor guides, brochures, flyers, and maps.
 Development of captivating destination experience videos to showcase Garden Grove.  Participation in professional industry conferences and affiliation events to network and promote the destination.
 Execution of lead generation activities to attract tourists, leisure visitors, and group events.  Collaboration with targeted special events that draw overnight visitors.  Conducting research to identify potential markets for customer base expansion and assess the economic impact of tourism on Garden Grove.
 Collaboration with local agencies and film commission programs to enhance visitor experiences and attract overnight visitors.

Visitor Enhancements: The Visitor Enhancements (VE) program will allocate funding for initiatives aligned with predetermined criteria set by Garden Grove, in collaboration with relevant stakeholders. 164
The focus will be on enhancing the overall destination brand experience across Garden Grove. The VE program may include the following initiatives aimed at driving overnight visitation and room sales:

 Implementation of a long-term ambassador and/or security program to enhance visitor safety and overall destination experience.
 Implementation of a brand-centric visitor services training program for both public and private sector staff to ensure consistent and exceptional visitor experiences.

B. Maintenance Activities
Maintenance activities encompassing sidewalks, landscaping, bus shelters, and palm tree lighting are to be conducted along the intersection of Harbor Boulevard, extending from the junction of Harbor Boulevard and Chapman Avenue to Garden Grove Boulevard.

C. Private Security
Implement private security measures to bolster safety within the Grove District.

D. Trade Mission
Garden Grove Tourism Promotion Corporation (GGTPC) will continue to strategically promote and market the City in emerging domestic and international markets, emphasizing tourism opportunities and positioning Garden Grove as a premier tourist destination. This initiative aims to capitalize on key metrics, such as increasing tourist arrivals, boosting local businesses, and elevating the economic impact generated by the tourism sector.

E. Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce's Tourism Initiatives Moving forward into the next year, the Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce will continue to play a pivotal role in advancing the marketing efforts. Additionally, the chamber will actively support and promote The Grove District at chamber networking events, business development programs, and advocacy initiatives.

F. Partnership with Visit Anaheim
The GGTID will continue its partnership between the Garden Grove Tourism Improvement District and Visit Anaheim which has been a cornerstone of strategic and successful collaboration for over 13 years.

Visit Anaheim has emerged as a leading force in the convention and meetings markets, leveraging its expertise and resources to catalyze significant growth within Garden Grove's hospitality sector. Through meticulously designed strategic initiatives, Visit Anaheim has executed targeted campaigns in key markets, showcasing Garden Grove's unique offerings and attractions. This concerted effort has not only 165
diversified the area's clientele but also positioned Garden Grove as an enticing destination for large- scale conventions and events, drawing visitors from across the globe.

CONVENTION SALES
Visit Anaheim will continue to focus on booking "A-Rated" business which has a mix of guest rooms to drive TOT for the City of Anaheim as well as being profitable for the Anaheim Convention Center in both Rental, Food & Beverage and ancillary spend. Association business will be our base with an emphasis on tradeshow and corporate segments. Convention Sales and Business Development will add a Manager (CSBDM) in Q1 who will increase the "mini-wide" segment (those groups under 1,000 rooms peak at published CC rates within 12-18 months of arrival). This will give the Convention Sales Directors more time to target and close citywide events with a higher EIC to the City of Anaheim. The CSBDM will also focus on uncovering new business opportunities for the Citywide Team primarily from the trade show market then expanding into corporate and eventually association.

Visit Anaheim will continue to allocate TID funds to offset Convention Center rental and present comprehensive proposals that will compete with our comp set of cities. In addition, closing incentives will be offered when necessary. We will also work in conjunction with VA Destination Services and the ACC team to produce a comprehensive post-convention report for our clients. This will add value to our proposals and assist in closing business.

Meeting Sales
In 2024, The Visit Anaheim Meeting Sales team remains dedicated to cultivating leads, with a primary focus on fostering new business relationships. The strategy includes attending tradeshows targeting corporate planners across various industries such as Automotive, Technology, Financial, Bio-tech, Pharmaceutical, Insurance, and Incentive markets. These sectors typically yield high-value business opportunities sought after by hotel partners. Additionally, continuing to forge existing relationships with Local, State, National, and International Association and Government accounts.

G. The City's application to OCTA for the fiscal year 2024-25 Community-Based Transit/Circulators Program seeks approximately $296,000 in funding from GGTID Transit Funds. This program aligns with OCTA's goal to improve regional transit, especially in underserved regions. The Measure M2 Project V Community-Based Transit/Circulators Program offers competitive grants to establish local transit services that complement existing regional transit. The proposed program plans to launch a shared ride -hailing service using an all-electric, eco-friendly fleet. It will serve as essential connectors between the tourist district, key city activities, and economic hubs like Main Street, the GEM Theatre, Little Saigon, and Korea Town. This service will enhance accessibility to major city attractions, such as the SteelCraft Food Hall and the Garden Grove Civic Center, while ensuring a safe, clean, and convenient transit experience.

H. The City of Garden Grove will be applying for an Economic Development Administration Grant (EDA) to enhance street landscape, lighting, and maintenance along Harbor Boulevard. This project seeks to upgrade the streetscape and enhance resort transit. The EDA requires matching funds of 50%, estimated at $3 to $4 million, based on a total project cost ranging from $6 to $8 million. Funding for this project will come from GGTID Transit Funds.

3. ESTIMATED COST OF IMPROVEMENTS & ACTIVITIES
The attached Budgets show the estimated assessment revenues and costs for the GGTID for FY 2024-25.

Pursuant to an agreement between the City of Garden Grove and the VCB entered into on or about February 22, 2011, approximately eighty percent (80%) of the net GGTID assessment revenues (i.e.,

2.0% of the total 2.5% assessment in Tier I and 0.4% of the total 0.5% assessment in Tier II), will be allocated to Visit Anaheim to administer and use for marketing and promotion of tourism and conventions benefitting the Visitor Accommodation Facilities as part of the “Anaheim Resort District.” For FY 2024-25, the City is retaining one-half of one percent (0.5%) of gross rent charged per room night occupied for transit or transportation system benefitting the GGTID.

The first Budget shows the estimated GGTID assessment revenues to be allocated to Fiscal Year 2024-25 and the estimated costs of those categories of improvements and activities to be funded by this portion of the GGTID assessment revenues. The remaining approximately twenty percent (20%) of the net GGTID assessment revenues will be allocated to improvements and activities within and to benefit the 167
GGTID other than those provided by Visit Anaheim. These funds are administered by the Garden Grove Tourism Promotion Corporation (“GGTPC”) pursuant to an agreement with the City.

The second Budget shows this portion of the estimated GGTID assessment revenues for Fiscal Year 2024-25 and the estimated costs of those categories of improvements and activities to be funded by this portion of the GGTID assessment revenues and any surplus assessment revenues carried over from Fiscal Year 2023-24.

Attached are estimates detailing the costs associated with providing improvements and conducting activities for the upcoming fiscal year budgets of both the Garden Grove Tourist Improvement District and Visit Anaheim.

4. METHOD AND BASIS FOR LEVYING THE ASSESSMENT
There is no change in the amount of the annual assessment for Fiscal Year 2024-25 or the method and basis for the levying the assessment is proposed. It is recommended that the annual assessments for FY 2024-25 continue to be two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the gross rent charged by the Operator per room Occupancy per night for all Transient Occupancies for each Visitor Accommodation Facility in Tier I and (ii) one-half percent (0.5%) of the gross rent charged by the Operator per room Occupancy per night for all Transient Occupancies for each Visitor Accommodation Facility in Tier II.

5. PRIOR YEAR SURPLUS OR DEFICIT TO BE CARRIED OVER
It is estimated that there will be approximately $150,000 in surplus assessment revenues from Fiscal Year 2023-24. It is recommended that these surplus assessment revenues be carried over to FY 2024-25 to fund the costs of the anticipated GGTID improvements and activities to be provided in Fiscal Year 2024-25, as more specifically delineated in the attached Budgets.

6. OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS

Our destination has experienced a continual and strong post-pandemic rebound throughout fiscal 2022/2023. Occupancy continues to climb back to pre-pandemic levels and Average Daily Rate (ADR) has already surpassed our 2019 figures.Leisure travel recovered faster as we emerged from the Covid-19 pandemic and remains strong.Our business travel recovery is still rebounding.US Travel Association reported that travel related spending has remained largely resilient and continues a positive trajectory, despite elevated inflation for services. As lodging rates remain elevated, guest expectations have also increased. Travelers are becoming more discerning and they are seeking value, personalization and a positive experience.According to the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) their latest forecast indicates an accelerated return of business travel to pre-pandemic spending levels sooner than anticipated as well as growth ahead in the coming years. Business travel spending is a key indicator, but how travel volumes will continue to rebound is yet to be seen. Factors that will impact the future growth of business travel include the increasing use of virtual meeting platforms along with remote work capabilities. Business travelers are also more frequentlyblending business and personal travelthan they did in 2019, with 42% adding additional leisure days to their business trips.

International travel spending has also increased and especially in 2023, however, current numbers remain lower than our 2019 activity.With strong domestic travel to our destination, Visit Anaheim is expanding our focus on our top three international markets including Canada, Mexico and Australia. These efforts will enable us to re-engage and regain our market share.We’ve formed a Luxury Advisory Council to focus on our new luxury products and to define our position and marketing strategy among affluent travelers to Anaheim and Orange County. The research completed supported a unanimous decision on concept that will set the foundation for our luxury strategy moving forward, “Luxury for the Imagination.”This campaign will highlight our diverse product offerings, targeting a new market segment and generating incremental business to the overall destination.In addition, the development of our new marketing campaign was necessary as we evaluate the ongoing needs of our two key business segments, the leisure traveler and the meetings & convention planner. Through our new “HERE WE GO” campaign, we will recapture the anticipation of traveling to Anaheim and Orange County, by highlighting hidden gems – the “only in Anaheim” opportunities that encourage our guests to extend their length of stay, proving that Anaheim is the center of it all. The official launch of our “HERE WE GO” campaign began late August 2023 and will be integrated throughout the next several years, incorporating opportunities to attract every traveling audience.

Visit Anaheim expanded our customer reach within the convention and meetings markets through participation in industry events and targeted efforts in key markets with the support of TID Funds. In addition, TID funds assisted us in closing short-term and future business as the convention team was able to offer additional funds to attract groups and be more competitive in the market and within our comp set.Visit Anaheim with our local partners hosted customer events and strategic events with industry conventions and in-market sales missions targeting our key accounts and potential customers.In August a new Director, Convention Sales position was added in the Mid-Atlantic market to increase our market share of the association business in DC/Maryland/ Virginia while developing the growing corporate sector in Virginia. In December 2022, we replaced two positions, Convention Sales, Director, Northwest Region and Convention Sales Director, Southern Region. Although there were changes to the team, we confirmed 16 city-wide events and 10 mini-wide events with a total economic impact of $622,573,885 between January 1, 2023-June 30, 2023. Convention Sales is also on track to exceed our 2023 calendar year end goals.

2024 Convention Sales Focus
The Citywide Team will continue to focus on booking “A-Rated” business which has a mix of guest rooms to drive TOT for the City of Anaheim as well as being profitable for the Anaheim Convention Center in both Rental, Food & Beverage and ancillary spend. Association business will be our base with an emphasis on tradeshow and corporate segments.The team will add a Convention Sales and Business Development Manager (CSBDM) in Q1 who will increase the “mini-wide” segment (those groups under 1,000 rooms peak at published CC rates within 12-18 months of arrival). This will give the Convention Sales Directors more time to target and close citywide events with a higher EIC to the City of Anaheim. The CSBDM will also focus on uncovering new business opportunities for the Citywide Team primarily from the trade show market then expanding into corporate and eventually association.Visit Anaheim will continue to allocate TID funds to offset Convention Center rental and present comprehensive proposals that will compete with our comp set of cities. In addition, closing incentives will be offered when necessary. We will also work in conjunction with VA Destination Services and the ACC team to produce a comprehensive post-convention report for our clients. This will add value to our proposals and assist in closing business.

Meeting SalesFrom July through December 2022, The Meeting Sales Team focus was to be present and visible in market with meeting planners in order to maintain top of mind presence which would convert into generating leads and new business for our partner hotels. Post pandemic, self contained meetings were minimal and slow returning, due to the use of technology as well as hybrid work.We also created and promoted a “Meetings Sweepstakes” to generate leads for our TID partner hotels that would in turn contribute towards Economic Impact.The Sweepstakes terms were as follows:Submit an RFP for a minimum of 50 rooms on peak (where no Convention Center space is needed) by December 31, 2022, and you will be entered for a chance to win 80,000 Hilton Honors or 120,000 Marriott Bonvoy Points of your choice. 80,000 Hilton Honors Points are valued at $800.00, and 120,000 Marriott Bonvoy Points are valued at $1,000.00.For third quarter June – September 2022, the sweepstakes generated 219 leads and for fourth quarter, October – December 2022, the sweepstakes generated 189 leads. 187

2024 Orange County Sports Commission FocusIn 2024, the Orange County Sports Commission will include advocating, meeting with right holders at tradeshows, expanding both destination site tours and event visits. Three future events that will require increased effort and momentum for their bid process include; Volleyball Nations League Finals, NCAA Women’s Volleyball Final Four, and World Gymnastics Championships.Volleyball Nations League Finals 2025/2026/2027 JulyComing off a successful 2023 event held in the ACC Arena, the Volleyball Nations League (VNL) wants to continue to build its presence in Anaheim & OC. VNL sold 30,000 tickets for a preliminary men’s pool phase of the event in July 2023. This reflects an unusually high number that emphasizes the value of the local market. The Finals of this competition provides a bigger opportunity that would draw more fans, better teams, and larger broadcast exposure. The Honda Center would need to be the host venue. The impact to the destination would include 40,000 attendees, 5,000 room nights, 5 days, internationally broadcasted by 27 broadcasters, and streamed to over 1M on VBTV worldwide.NCAA Women’s Volleyball Final Four 2026/2027 mid/late DecemberOCSC is partnering with the Honda Center and the Big West Conference to bid on the 2026 or 2027 NCAA Women’s Volleyball Final Four. The bid proposal is due in 2024 and will be awarded later in the year. This represents the top women’s collegiate teams (in the nation) coming to our destination. Additionally, it would include several hours of live ESPN broadcasting, with over 1M viewers nationwide. This event would be held prior to the LA28 Olympics volleyball event at the Honda Center. It builds the foundation in the local community for engagement and investment in the sport. Thereafter, hosting more top-tier volleyball events each year would follow. An estimated $150K - $200K would need to be invested as the “Host City” in partnership with the Honda Center contributing an equivalent or higher investment.The impact of this event would bring 35,000 attendees, 7,000 room nights over 5 days, with a convention and competition between the ACC & Honda Center and 1M ESPN broadcast viewers to our destination.World Gymnastics Championships 2027/2028 late August early SeptUSA Gymnastics has expressed interest in working with OCSC to secure the World Gymnastics Championship in 2027 or 2028. In addition, Anaheim’s proximity to the nearby LA28 Games, has drawn attention and the World Championships have inquired about being in the market prior to the Games to build its brand. Anaheim hosted this same event in 2023 at the Honda Center. It was the last time it was in the US. LA proper has no interest in hosting because of the lack of availability of its Arenas and over saturation.This Championship event attracts 700 gymnasts, 35,000 attendees, 8,600 room nights over 5 days and includes international broadcast to 70 countries. 210

In fiscal year 2022/2023, Visit Anaheim Tourism Department focused on trade and consumer efforts to reposition the Anaheim Area destination in the top domestic and international markets as the leading leisure destination in Southern California.In the domestic market, we focused on integrated co-op marketing campaigns including direct to consumer offers, influencer partnerships, social media activations, and partnership with trade partners such as AAA, Expedia and Get Away Today and non-traditional partners like the Salt Lake Bees.This fiscal year, we reentered five of our top international markets starting with Mexico and Canada with our trade and media missions, then reopening our representation offices in Australia and New Zealand and lastly participating in the Visit California trade/media mission to the UK. This strategic approach was taken in alignment with Visit California and Brand USA timing of market reentry.

As we reentered the markets, we developed direct to consumer programs to help generate exposure to the destination and room nights to area hotels. These co-op efforts included various partners such as airlines, online travel agencies, wholesalers, consumer and trade publications, and other trade partners. In addition, we dedicated efforts to train travel trade professionals, many of them new to their role, through a series of webinars, trade events, online training program and email marketing.The Tourism efforts will continue to strengthen the domestic and current international feeder markets while reentering Asia specifically Japan, South Korea and China. Our efforts are developed to generate the highest exposure to area hotels and businesses with the goal to expand the economic impact generated to the region.

SOUTH KOREA
306
Market Overview:

Visit Anaheim is beginning to re-enter the South Korea market with a priority of raising awareness of our destination with key trade and build professional relationships to see incremental business from this region. The September 2023 Sales Mission to Korea will help gain exposure with Korean Operators.

The number of S. Korean visitors to California reached 69% of 2019 levels in 2022 with and is forecasted to reach full rebound to 2019 levels in 2024. And South Korean Travel spending reached 612 Million in 2022 and is expected to exceed the 1.2 Billion mark from 2019 in 2025.

As of August 1, 2023, the airlift from Korea to California recovered by 101.5% compared to 2019. A new Korean hybrid air carrier, Air Premia launched a direct service to LAX in November 2022 with 6 weekly flights. As Air Premia is enjoying over 90% load factor, its first priority is to expand ICN-LAX to daily flights.

With shifts and a reduction in the size of U.S. package teams in major travel agencies, there has been about 50% turn-over in the travel trade workforce during the pandemic. It is critical to re-establish Anaheim's market presence by reconnecting with Korean buyers in market to keep Anaheim a top of mind destination again.

MATTERS FROM THE MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, AND CITY MANAGER

Council Member Brietigam encouraged residents to contact Republic Services to schedule large item pick-ups, noting that as a Garden Grove resident whether you live in multi-family or single family properties, you can access this service three times a year for up to ten large items. He also discouraged people from dumping their items in alleys or in public rights-of-ways. He noted the upcoming State of the City on Thursday, April 11th.

Council Member O’Neill expressed his excitement that with the approval of the bonds, the city can now move forward with the Public Safety Building, a monumental pivot point. He noted that the City has been blessed with sound financial oversight through the years, and he also appreciates the fast pace moving the project forward. In response to speakers at tonight’s meeting, street vendors are not permitted on medians and are permitted on existing sidewalks as long as they do not block the public right of way and have their permits; and the City is collaborating with the County Flood Control and Simpson Chevrolet on maintaining the fencing at Chapman Avenue and Gilbert Street. He noted tonight’s ribbon cutting ceremony at Magnolia Park and the citrus design theme paid homage to the former Wakeham Family who owned the property originally as well as the City’s original citrus growers. He commented that growing up in Garden Grove, Magnolia 329

-10- 04/09/24
Park has been an integral part of his life, and he encouraged everyone to take care of the park and to notify City of any vandalism.

Mayor Pro Tem Tran commented on her tour of the Adult Day Care Center on Acacia Parkway, and was delighted with the interaction between the caregivers and adults spending time at the Center. Adult Day Care staff were thankful to Public Works for taking care of the outside maintenance. She congratulated the employees recognized at the recent service awards event, and was impressed by the longevity of many of the employees and by the event and room décor. She and Council Member Brietigam recently visited with the Public Safety Dispatch staff to learn about their work. She thanked Community Services Director, John Montanchez, for coordinating with the Senior Fight Back organization for providing indoor space at Garden Grove Park for a Self Defense Workshop designed for Senior Citizens. She noted that she has heard from residents regarding tagging and homelessness at the corner of Chapman Avenue and Gilbert Street, and that she is working with City staff to resolve those issues.

Council Member DoVinh thanked the City Manager for providing him with a framed proclamation recognizing Black April Month, and he is happy to provide it to interested groups wanting to commemorate the refuge experience in the United States. He thanked the Community Services Director and staff on their work towards improvements to Magnolia Park, and he encouraged people to come out and enjoy the new amenities and to keep the park clean. He noted the upcoming Vesak celebrations in May for Buddha’s birthday, and asked that the City Manager provide some oversight as large crowds gather. He commented that Garden Grove is home to multiple and different religions and that the Marian Days event to be held at the Christ Cathedral in July is an amazing event where people come for all over the world to attend. He noted that the 2024-25 Action Plan that was approved at tonight’s meeting is available on the City website at https://ggcity.org/neighborhood- improvement/reports and for questions regarding the program, staff contact information is included in the report. He thanked the IT staff for the upgrades to the website and for developing an App for people to learn about events and to report issues.

Council Member Klopfenstein noted her recent visit to Sacramento to visit as an advocate in her role as President of the Board of the Association of California cities – Orange County. She was able to converse with legislators on a variety of topics including climate, energy, grid, electric vehicles, Proposition 1 and Proposition 47 reform, water, water conservation, and infrastructure; she took copious notes and encouraged residents to visit ACC-OC’s website at ACCOC.org to learn more. She noted that she brought up the idea of lighting up the Clock Tower at the Village Green blue last year to recognize and support Autism Awareness Week, and that this year again, starting April 2nd, the Clock Tower has been lit blue in support.

Council Member Nguyen-Penaloza noted the recent adoption of the Proclamation recognizing Sexual Assault Awareness, and invited everyone to participate in the annual photo on Denim Day, Wednesday, April 24, 2024 at 2:00 p.m. at Steelcraft on 330

-11- 04/09/24
Euclid Street. She will provide background on Denim Day at the next City Council meeting as a reminder to participate and encouraged everyone to attend. She requested an update on Magnolia Park; she asked that the City continue to work with CalTrans to address the ongoing issues at Harbor Boulevard and Trask Avenue; and asked that the City use social media regularly to communicate any lane closures for road improvements.

Mayor Jones thanked Finance Director Patricia Song and City Manager Lisa Kim and their team for their diligence on the bond issuance, and commented how fortunate it is that the City Council strives to work together cohesively, and that they are all excited that the Public Safety and Civic Center Revitalization project is moving forward expeditiously.

City Manager Kim noted that the public safety site will soon be prepared for construction following the draining of the pond and relocation of the wildlife with fencing around the perimeter installed. The goal is for completion of the public safety building in the next 20 months. She announced that the City will be transitioning to a new agenda management system this month that will feature enhanced search capabilities.

INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM

To:

Lisa L. Kim From: Ursula Luna-Reynosa
Dept:

City Manager Dept: Economic Development and
Housing

Date: 5/14/2024

Subject: Adoption of a Resolution authorizing an application for, and receipt of, SB2 Permanent Local Housing Allocation Grant Program funds. (Grant amount:
$2,553,236) (Action Item)

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this memorandum is to request that the City Council conduct a public hearing to receive public comments regarding the 5 -Year Plan (Attachment No. 1) for the use of Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program funds, approve the 5-Year Plan for use of PLHA Grant Program funds, and to adopt a resolution (Attachment No. 2) authorizing the City Manager to execute the PLHA Grant Application (Attachment No. 3), the PLHA Grant Standard Agreement and associated documents, and any amendments thereto, on behalf of the City as required by the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for receipt of the PLHA Grant and appropriate any funds received from the PLHA Grant Application for the purposes designated therein.

BACKGROUND

On July 14, 2020, City Council conducted a public hearing for the PLHA 5-Year Plan, and authorized the submittal of the PLHA Grant Application through the adoption of Resolution No. 9654-20. The grant provides funding for housing -related projects and progr ams that assist in addressing the unmet housing needs of the community.

On December 22, 2021, the City of Garden Grove (City) was awarded $5,966,058 for the production of affordable housing to households at or below 60% of the Area Median Income; operation of the Yale Transitional Center providing shelter and services to homeless individuals; and for a First Time Homebuyer Program offering down payment assistance loans to low income households.

On December 29, 2023, HCD released the Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the PLHA Program Formula Component, which allows entitlement jurisdictions to submit a returning application to access their Calendar Year (CY) 2020-2022 PLHA allocations. To date, the City has expended $2,154,926.65 of the CY 2019 an d 2020 funds on the Orchard Grove Apartments development, operations at the Yale Transitional Center, and administrative 354
Item 209/2024

expenses. Since the City has expended most of the PLHA funds available for CY 2019 and 2020, this Notice of Funding Availability issued by HCD will allow the City to apply for and access CY 2021 and 2022 PLHA funds totaling $2,553,236.

DISCUSSION

The PLHA NOFA requires the City to submit the 5 -Year Plan that was approved on July 14, 2020, or amend the plan through this application to HCD. City Staff proposes the following amendments to the PLHA 5-Year Plan:

Amendment 1: Redistribute funding from Activity 4 to Activity 1 (Exhibit A – List of Eligible Activities). This amendment will allow the City to expend funds on predevelopment, development, acquisition, rehabilitation, and preservation of multifamily affordable housing without requiring the $1 to $1 match from the City’s Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Asset Fund.

Amendment 2: Reduce the allocation for affordable housing development activities (Activity 1) and allocate additional funding to home buyer activities (Activity 9). HCD recently approved changes to the City’s First-Time Home Buyer Program authorizing the use of PLHA funds to increase the maximum loan amount to $110,000 at 0% interest for down-payment assistance. The maximum loan amount available through PLHA to a household is $50,000.

However, these funds will be combined with the City’s existing CalHome funds to provide qualified home buyers with up to $110,000 in assistance.

Amendment 3 : The CY 2020 PLHA allocation has $121,315 of unexpended funds from Activity 4. This amendment would shift the remaining funds to Activity 9, which will allow the City to assist additional home buyers in Garden Grove.

Amendment 4: Increase the income limits for Activity 9 to 120% of the area median income (AMI) in Orange County. This increase from 80% AMI to 120% AMI would allow additional households to qualify for down-payment assistance through the City’s First-Time Home Buyer Program.

Amendment 5: Increase the income limits for Activity 1 to 80% AMI in Orange County. This adjustment from 60% to 80% AMI aims to grant the City greater flexibility during negotiations with affordable housing developers regarding affordability thresholds within a project.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There is no impact to the General Fund. This grant application will bring approximately $2,553,236 to the City to address the unmet housing needs in our community. Funds will be included as part of the budget for FY 2024-25.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Council:

355
Item 209/2024

 Conduct a public hearing to receive comments regarding the 5 -Year Plan for use of PLHA Grant Program funds;

 Approve the amended 5-Year Plan for the use of PLHA Grant Program funds; and

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GARDEN GROVE APPROVING (1) ZONING AMENDMENT NO. A-040-2024 TO AMEND THE CITY’S

OFFICIAL ZONING MAP TO CHANGE THE ZONING OF AN APPROXIMATELY

0.88-ACRE PARCEL LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF NEWHOPE STREET, NORTH OF GARDEN GROVE BOULEVARD, AT 12828 NEWHOPE STREET, ASSESSOR’S PARCEL NO. 090-671-07, FROM R-1 (SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) TO RESIDENTIAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT (PUD-019- 2024) ZONING WITH AN R-3 (MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL) BASE ZONE; AND (2) RESIDENTIAL PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT NO. PUD-019-2024 TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A 15-UNIT RESIDENTIAL DETACHED CONDOMINIUM PROJECT ON THE SUBJECT SITE. (Action Item)

OBJECTIVE

To transmit a recommendation from the Planning Commission to the City Council to approve the land use actions necessary to effectuate approval of a 15-unit multiple-family residential project on an approximately 0.88-acre site. Specifically, the City Council is requested to take the following actions: (i) introduce and conduct the first reading of an Ordinance approving Zoning Amendment No. A-040-2024 to re-zone the subject property from R-1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone and adopt a residential Planned Unit Development to facilitate the development of the project; (ii) adopt a Resolution adopting a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project, and (iii) adopt a Resolution approving Site Plan No. SP -136-2024, Variance No. V -042-2024, and Vestin g Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 to facilitate the development of the project.

364
Item 206/2024

BACKGROUND

The project site is an approximately 38,775 square-foot (0.88 acres) parcel on the east side of Newhope Street, north of Garden Grove Boulevard. The site is currently developed with a vacant single-family residence, which will be demolished as a part of the subject request.

The subject site has a General Plan Land Use designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR) and is zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential). The property abuts R-1 zoned properties to the east. To the north, south, and west, across Newhope Street, the subject site is adjacent to the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development, within the Planned Unit Development No. PUD-102-72 zone.

On April 18, 2024, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider approval of the proposed project. Prior to the meeting, two public comment letters were received: one in favor, and one opposed to the project. During the hearing, six (6) speakers from the public, in addition to the project applicant, came forward to speak on the item. By a vote of 5 -0, with Commissioners Arbgast and Cueva absent, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution Nos. 6086 -24, 6087 -24, and 6088 -24 recommending that the Cit y Council adopt: (i) an ordinance approving Amendment No. A-040-2024, and Planned Unit Development No. PUD - 019-2024; (ii) a resolution approving Site Plan No. SP -136-2024, Variance No. V-042-2024, and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 with attached Conditions of Approval; and (iii) a resolution approving a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project.

The approvals of Site Plan No. SP-136-2024, Variance No. V-042-2024, and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298, along with the related Conditions of Approval, are contingent upon City Council’s adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the associated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project, and adoption of an Ordinance approving Amendment No. A-040-2024 and Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024.

DISCUSSION

Amendment No. A-040-2024:

As a part of this request, Amendment No. A -040-2024 would modify the base zoning of the property from an R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to a residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) with an R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone. The R-3 base zoning is consistent with the Medium Density Residential (MDR) General Plan land use designation, and rezoning of the property w ill facilitate the development of the proposed project under the proposed Planned Unit Development, which is based on the R -3 standards of the Municipal Code.

Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024

The adoption of the PUD would allow for the project to be more consistent and compatible with the surrounding Garden Park Townhomes. As part of the proposed project, the City’s Zoning Map would be amended to change the zoning of the project site to Residential Planned Unit Development zoning (PUD -019-2024), with R -3 base zoning to allow for and facilitate development of the project. Planned Unit Development No. PUD -019-2024 would be the 365
Item 206/2024

residential PUD zoning that establishes the development standards for the project, and where not otherwise specified, the zoning standards in the R-3 base zone would apply. Development standards specified in the PUD include, but are not limited to, setbacks, parking, building heights, and open space requirements.

Site Plan No. SP-136-2024

The applicant proposes to construct a total of fifteen (15) detached condominium units along a central drive aisle. A full discussion of the Site Plan design is found in the April 18, 2024 , Planning Commission Staff Report (Attachment 4). A summary is provided below:

 The applica nt proposes to construct fifteen (15) detached residential condominium units. Each unit totals 1,675 square feet, with three (3) or four (4) bedrooms, three (3) or four (4) full bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and an optional “flex room.”  The site is accessed via a singular, twenty -four foot (24’-0”) wide central drive aisle connecting to Newhope Street. A four -foot (4’-0”) wide sidewalk is provided on the south side of central drive aisle.
 Walkways leading to the main entrance of each unit are provided, connecting either to the central sidewalk, or to the individual unit’s driveway.  Each unit will provide a two -car garage, and an additional two (2) driveway parking spaces, private to each of the units. An additional two (2) open guest parking s paces are provided near the main entrance, with access from the central drive aisle.  The project provides a total of sixty -two (62) parking spaces. Thirty (30) spaces are within the private garages, thirty (30) spaces are located on the private driveways, and two (2) spaces are open guest parking spaces.
 Each unit will provide a minimum ten-foot (10’ -0”) by a minimum 25’ -0” private recreation area.
 An approximately 1,590 square -foot active recreational open space area with lounge seating, a shade structure, and a flexible lawn space is also provided in the southwest corner of the site, nearest to the Newhope Street entrance.  The site features a perimeter block wall. Additional vinyl fences will be provided between the units to maintain private recreation areas.  The units will have a maximum height of thirty-five foot (35’-0”), with three (3) stories.

Each unit will feature a two-foot (2’-0”) deep front entry porch. There are two exterior façade designs, “Spanish” and “Santa Barbara,” which come in one of six (6) available color schemes. The unit design is intended to be compatible with the neighboring developments.

Variance No. V-042-2024

Section 9.12.030.020.C.2 of the Municipal Code requires all residential Planned Unit Developments to provide a minimum lot size of one (1) acre. The subject lot is 0.88 acres in area, which is less than the minimum. Therefore, a Variance is required for the establishment of the PUD zoning, and to allow a deviation from the minimum lot size requirement for a residential PUD.

366
Item 206/2024

Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298

In accordance with the State Subdivision Map Act, the applicant is requesting approval of Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 to create a one-lot subdivision for the purpose of selling each unit as a condominium. As proposed in the Tentative Tract, the project will consist of fifteen (15) dwelling units, and one (1) lot will consist of the common recreation and central access aisle areas. The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map is in conformance with the proposed PUD requirements for the site, as well as the State Subdivision Map Act.

Environmental Review:

In conjunction with the proposed Project, the City (through an environmental consultant) has prepared an Initial Study report and Mitigated Negative Declaration (“IS/MND”) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) analyzing the potential environmental impacts of the proposed residential condominium project. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines, the City made the IS/MND available for public review and comment prior to the meeting.

The IS/MND concludes that the proposed Project will have no, or a less than significant, impact on all relevant environmental factors, provided specified mitigation measures are incorporated, as per the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (“MMRP”). The applicant will be required to implement the mitigation measures in the MMRP, as identified in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and shall provide updates about the implementation process to the Community Development Department until completion of the project. The Planning Commission has adopted a Resolution recommending that the Garden Grove City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and an associated MMRP for the Project.

No Net Loss:

The subject parcel is not on the City’s Housing Element sites inventory list, and the City is not proposing to change the zoning of the parcel to a less intensive use. Therefore, the City is not required to make “No Net Loss” findings pursuant to Government Code Section 65863 and Garden Grove Municipal Code Section 9.60.030 in order to approve the proposed project.

SB 330 Compliance:

Pursuant to Government Code §66300.6(a), the City may not approve a housing development project that will require the demolition of residential dwelling units unless the project will create at least as many residential dwelling units as will be demolished. This proposed project satisfies this requirement because it will replace one (1) existing unit with 15 new dwellings.

Government Code §66300.6(b) also includes requirements pertaining to the demolition of occupied or vacant “protected units,” or units that are or were occupied by lower or very - low income rental households within the past five (5) years. The subject property has been owner-occupied for at least the last five (5) years, and the project is not required to replace any “protected units”.

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Garden Grove hereby makes the following findings regarding Site Plan No. SP -136-2024, Variance No. V -042-2024, and Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298:

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Garden Grove does hereby resolve as follows:

1. The City Council finds that the above recitals are true and correct.

379

2. City C ouncil Resolution No. ____ adopting a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project is incorporated herein by reference with the same force and effect as if set forth in full herein.

3. The City Council of the City of Garden Grove hereby makes the following findings regarding Site Plan No. SP-136-2024:

1. The proposed development project is consistent, in compliance, and conformity with the applicable, objective standards, provisions, conditions or requirements of the General Plan, Title 9, or other applicable ordinances or policies of the City.

The proposed project includes the construction of fifteen (15) residential units, along with associated site improvements, including, but not limited to a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance, driveways at each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements.

With th e approval of Amendment No. A -040-2024, and Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024, the subject site will be zoned PUD-019-2024 with an R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone. The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain, and enhanc e residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi-family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes. The MDR land use designation is implemented by the R -3 zone, which is intended to provide for a variety of types and densities of multiple - family residential dwellings. The proposed project is also consistent with several goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, including the following:

Policy LU-2.2: Strive to provide a diverse mix of housing types, along with uniformly high standards of res idential property maintenance to preserve residents’ real estate values and their high quality of life. The proposed development of fifteen (15) for-sale units will add to the mix of diverse housing types in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed development will ensure maintenance of all common areas, such as the private drive aisle, guest parking areas, the common recreation area, and street frontage landscaping, which will be the responsibility of the Homeowner’s Association to ensure proper maintena nce that preserves the residents’ real estate values.

Furthermore, the project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

Policy LU-2.4: Assure that the type and intensity of land use shall be consistent with that of the immediate neighborhood. The site is located within a residential neighborhood, characterized by the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development to the north, west, and south. To the east, the project abuts R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned properties. The proposed development, with a density of seventeen (17) units per acre is appropriate, as it will not only provide opportunities for new housing developments, but also be consistent with the surrounding lower density neighborhood.

380
Goal LU -4: The City seeks to develop uses that are compatible with one another. The 0.88-acre site is proposed to be improved with fifteen (15) three- story, detached, residential units, at seventeen (17) units per acre. This is within the allowable density of thirty -two (32) units per acre of the R -3 base zoning and the MDR General Plan land use designation of the property. The proposed project is within the allowed density of the MDR land use designation and similar in scale to the adjoining residential neighborhood. The proposed design will consist of three -story detached condominium units, which are allowed by the proposed R-3 base zoning. Thus, the project is similar both in land use intensity and physical scale of the adjoining residential neighborhood.

Policy LU -4.1: Locate higher -density residential uses within proximity of commercial uses to encourage pedestrian traffic, and to provide a consumer base for commercial uses. The site is located within a residential neighborhood with nearby access to Garden Grove Boulevard, a major commercial area.

Approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of an existing property with fifteen (15) condominium units. The construction of the new residential units would increase the local population, and add to the consumer base for commercial services within the immediate vicinity.

Goal H-2: Housing supply to accommodate housing needs at all affordability levels. The proposed project will provide fifteen (15) new, market -rate, for- sale housing units and increase housing opportunities. The number of units will further contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

Policy H-3.1: Maintain land use policies and regulations that create capacity for the development of a range of residential development types that can fulfill local housing needs, including accessory dwelling units, low -density single- family uses, moderate-density townhomes and middle housing, higher-density apartments and condominiums, senior housing, and mixed-use projects. The proposed project would facilitate the development of a vacant single -family property with fifteen (15), detached, market -rate, residential units. This moderate-density multiple-family development will provide a net increase of fourteen (14) units, as compared to the existing condition of the property, creating additional housing capacity.

Policy CD-7.1: Encourage future development and redevelopment projects to reinforce district scale, identity, and urban form. The site is surrounded on three sides by the existing Garden Park Townhomes development. The proposed development has been developed, to the greatest extent possible to be consistent with the existing townhome com munity. The proposed project will be consistent with the form and scale of the immediate neighborhood.

2. The provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act have been complied with.

381
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq., and the CEQA guidelines, 14 California Code of Regulations Sec. 15000 et. seq., an Initial Study was prepared and it has been determined that the proposed Project qualifies for a Mitigated Negative Declaration because the proposed Project with implementation of the proposed mitigation measures cannot, or will not, have a significant effect on the environment. A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared and is attached to the Mitigated Negative Decl aration listing the mitigation measures to be monitored during project implementation. The Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were prepared and circulated in accordance with CEQA and CEQA's implementing guidelin es. Therefore, the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act have been complied with. Pursuant to Resolution No. 6088-24, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and the associated Mitig ation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project.

3. The proposed development project does not have specific, adverse impacts, as defined in subdivision (j)(1)(A) of Government Code Section 65589.5, on public health and safety without any feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the specific adverse impact, other than the disapproval of the proposed project.

The proposed fifteen (15) residential unit development will not have specific, adverse impacts on public health and safety. The propos ed project is within the maximum allowable density, is compatible with surrounding uses, is similar in scale to the adjoining neighborhood, and is consistent with land use types and intensities in the immediate neighborhood. Furthermore, the Project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

4. The City Council of the City of Garden Grove hereby makes the following findings regarding Variance No. V-042-204:

1. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or to the intended use or development of the property that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone or neighborhood.

Approval of this Variance wil l allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Development. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved that do not apply generally to other similar properties in the immediate vicinity, within the same zone, or other similarly zoned properties throughout the City.

The subject site is surrounded and constrained by previously developed Garden Park Townhomes to the north, south, and west, across Newhope Street. The Garden Park Townhome development was constructed in 1973, under Planned 382
Unit Development No. PUD-102-72. The subject property remained as an R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned property, develop ed with a single -family home.

The resulting development of the Garden Park Townhomes created a situation where a single -family property was left in the midst of a multiple -family development. This is an exceptional and extraordinary circumstance wherein the rest of the neighborhood is developed with multiple-family developments, but the subject parcel is zoned for R -1 single-family residential uses. This circumstance has ultimately left the subject property unable to develop multiple-family residences, akin to the Garden Park Townhomes that surround the property, and also pulls access from Newhope Street.

The requested Planned Unit Development will help facilitate the development of residential units, to be sold as condominiums, similar to the Garden P ark Townhomes. The Garden Park Townhomes were approved in 1972, under Planned Unit Development No. PUD -102-72. The Planned Unit Development adopted for the townhomes do not meet the current Municipal Code standards, for amongst other things, setbacks, pa rking, and required open space.

Therefore, the proposed Planned Unit Development is necessary to establish development standards that are more consistent and compatible with the development standards of the Garden Park Townhome approval in 1972.

The granting of the requested Variance will allow for the establishment of a Planned Unit Development that will allow for the subject parcel to develop in a manner consistent with the surrounding neighborhood.

2. That such Variance is necessary for the preser vation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, but which is denied to the subject property.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Development. The project site currently has an R -1 (Single- Family Residential) zoning, and an MDR (Medium Density Residential) land use designation. The MDR land use is implemented through higher density residential zones, such as the R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) zone. The current R-1 zoning of the property only allows for single-family development.

Adoption of a Planned Unit Development will allow for a multiple -family residential development that is more akin to those implemented by the R -3 zone. Thus, the PUD rectifies an existing condition wherein the subject property is denied development rights that would otherwise be granted to a property within the MDR Land Use Designation.

Within the immediate vicinity of the subject lot is the Garden Park Townhomes.

These townhomes were originally constructed in 1973, and are also implemented under a Planned Unit Development within the MDR Land Use Designation. The requested Variance for minimum PUD acreage would grant 383
the subject property land use entitlements that would be substantially similar to the Garden Park Townhomes. Accordingly, approval of the proposed Variance will not set a precedent, and will allow the applicant to en joy a substantial property right possessed by the Garden Park Townhomes, and other, similar residential Planned Unit Developments.

3. That the granting of a Variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such zone or neighborhood in which the property is located.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Development.

The Variance will not adversely affect surrounding properties, which are developed with existing residential uses. The existing Garden Park Townhomes to the north, west, and south, and the single -family residential properties to the east will remain unaffected by the granting of the Variance, allowing a residential PUD of less than one acre. Specifically, the PUD allows for a maximum density of residential units (17 units/acre) that is less than the maximum density ordinarily allowed by the MDR Land Use Designation (32 units/acre). Approving the Variance, allowing the PUD, helps implement a potentially less impactful residential development, as proposed, than what would otherwise be allowed by the General Plan, and allow for the subject parcel to develop in a manner consistent with the neighborhood.

Also as a part of the project application, the City has conducted a thorough environmental review, under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines, and found that any environmental impacts wo uld be less than significant, provided certain mitigation measures are implemented. A discussion of the CEQA process is also found in this report.

The project will be required to comply with all applicable building, and life - safety codes and regulations to ensure that there are no adverse impacts on public health, safety, or welfare. Furthermore, the proposal has been reviewed by all City departments in order to ensure compliance with all applicable Municipal Code provisions. Provided the project complies with the Conditions of Approval, the approval of the Variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such zone or neighborhood in which the property is located.

4. That the granting of such Variance will not adversely affect the City’s General Plan.

The General Plan does not explicitly impose a minimum lot size for a residential Planned Unit Development zone. Therefore, the proposed Variance from the minimum residential Planned Unit Development lot size will not adversely affect the General Plan.
384
Furthermore, the Medium Density Residential (MDR) General Plan Land Use Designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, townhomes, and single -family small-lot subdivisions. The proposed PUD is consistent with the intent of the MDR Land Use Designation. As proposed, the PUD would facilitate the development of a detached condominium community, at a residential density that is consistent with the scale of the surrounding Garden Park Townhomes and single-family development.

The project site currently has an R -1 (Single-Family Residential) zoning, and an MDR (Medium Density Residential) General Plan Land Use Designation. The MDR designation is implemented through higher density residential zones, such as the R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) zone. The current R-1 zoning of the property would only allow for single -family development. Adoption o f a Planned Unit Development will allow for a multiple -family residential development that is more akin to those implemented by the R-3 zone. Thus, the PUD ultimately makes the subject property and zoning more in conformance with the General Plan than the existing condition.

The proposed project will be consistent with the spirit and intent of the General Plan, furthering its goals, policies, and implementation programs. The project would also help meet the community’s need for a variety of residential uses in the MDR Land Use Designation. Therefore, the granting of the requested Variance will not adversely affect the City’s General Plan.

5. That approval of the Variance is subject to such conditions as will assure that it does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Development. The project site currently has an R -1 (Single- Family Residential) zoning, and an MDR (Medium Density Residential) General Plan Land Use Designation. The MDR designation is implement ed through higher density residential zones, such as the R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) zone. The current R-1 zoning of the property would only allow for single-family development. Adoption of a Planned Unit Development will allow for a multiple-family residential development that is more akin to those implemented by the R-3 zone. The proposed density of the project (17 units per acre) is within the maximum density allowed under the MDR land use designation (maximum 32 units per acre).

The surrounding Garden Park Townhome development was approved in 1972, and was established through its own Planned Unit Development No.

PUD-102-72. The proposed Planned Unit Development, subject to the approval of the subject Variance, will establish development standards, similar to, and consistent with the existing Garden Park Townhome Development. 385
This includes, but is not limited to, standards for maximum residential densities, building heights, setbacks, parking, and common and private open spaces. These development standards, with the R-3 base zone, are based on the development standards of the City’s small-lot subdivision ordinance. The conditions established by these proposed development standards help ensure a development similar to the surrounding neighborhood.

Thus, there is no special privilege granted. The approval of the Variance does not grant any development opportunities inconsistent with those afforded to other properties in the neighborhood, namely the Garden Park Townhomes.

Furthermore, so long as the Conditions of Approval are adhered to for the life of the project, the Variance will not grant any special privileges.

5. The City Council of the City of Garden Grove hereby makes the following findings regarding Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298:

1. That the proposed map is consistent with the General Plan.

The proposed project includes the construction of fifteen (15) residential units, along with associated site improvements, including, but not limited to a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance, driveways at each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements.

With the approval of Amendment No . A -040-2024, and Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024, the subject site will be zoned PUD-019-2024 with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential). The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes.

The MDR land use designation is implemented by the R -3 zone, which is intended to provide for a variety of types and densities of multiple -family residential dwellings. The proposed project is also consistent with several goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, including the following:

Policy LU-2.2: Strive to provide a diverse mix of housing types, along with uniformly high standards of residential property maintenance to pres erve residents’ real estate values and their high quality of life. The proposed development of fifteen (15) for-sale units will add to the mix of diverse housing types in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed development will ensure maintenance of all common areas, such as the private drive aisle, guest parking areas, the common recreation area, and street frontage landscaping, which will be the responsibility of the Homeowner’s Association to ensure proper maintenance that preserves the residents’ real estate values.

Furthermore, the project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

Policy LU-2.4: Assure that the type and intensity of land use shall be consistent with that of the immediate neighborhood. The site is located within a 386
residential neighborhood, characterized by the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development to the north, west, and south. To the east, the project abuts R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned properties. The proposed PUD zone with an R-3 base zone, allowing for up to seventeen (17) units per acre is appropriate, as it will not only provide opportunities for new housing developments, but also be consistent with the surrounding lower density neighborhood.

Goal LU -4: The City seeks to develop uses that are compatible with one another. The 0.88 -acre site is proposed to be improved with fifteen (15) condominium units, at seventeen (17) units per acre, which is within the allowable density of 32 uni ts per acre otherwise allowed under the R -3 base zoning and the MDR General Plan Land Use Designation. The proposed PUD will, however, limit the maximum density to 17 units per acre. The proposed project is within the allowed density of the MDR land use designation and similar in scale to the adjoining residential neighborhood. The proposed design will consist of three-story units, which are allowed by the R-3 base zone. Thus, the project is similar both in land use intensity and physical scale of the adjoining residential neighborhood.

Policy LU -4.1: Locate higher -density residential uses within proximity of commercial uses to encourage pedestrian traffic, and to provide a consumer base for commercial uses. The site is located within a residential neighborhood characterized, with nearby access to Newhope Street and Garden Grove Boulevard. Approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of a vacant single-family developed property with fifteen (15) condominiums. The construction of the new residential units would increase the local population and add to the consumer base for commercial services within the immediate neighborhood.

2. That the design and improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan.

The subject site has a General Plan land use designation of MDR (Medium Density Residential). The applicant is requesting Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT -19298 approval to create a one-lot subdivision for the purpose of developing the site with fifteen (15) for -sale, detached residential condominium units (17 units per acre). The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance resident ial areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes .

The MDR Land Use Designation allows a density up to thirty-two (32) units per acre. Thus, by proposing fifteen (15) condominium units, the project is consistent with the State Subdivision Map Act, and the General Plan.

3. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development.

The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed by the developer and complies with the spirit and intent of the MDR General Plan land 387
use designation. The proposed 0.88-acre site will consist of fifteen (15) three- story units, which would be allowed under the proposed R-3 base zone, and is consistent with the General Plan. The residential Planned Unit Development has been designed in a manner that is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. As designed, the site is able to accommodate fifteen (15) units, along with parking, landscaping, private and common recreation areas, setbacks, and building height standards. Therefore, the property is sufficient in size to accommodate the proposed development.

4. That the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act have been satisfied.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq., and the CEQA guidelines, 14 California Code of Regulations Sec. 15000 et. seq., an Initial Study was prepared, and it has been determined that the proposed Project qualifies for a Mitigated Negative Declaration because the proposed Project with implementation of the proposed mitigation measures cannot, or will not, have a significant effect on the environment. A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared and is attached to the Mitigated Ne gative Declaration listing the mitigation measures to be monitored during project implementation. The Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were prepared and circulated in accordance with CEQA and CEQA's implementing guidelines.

5. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of the development.

The subject property has a General Plan land use designation of MDR, which is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes.

The R-3 base zone, as proposed under A -040-2024, in conjunction with the existing MDR land use designation, allow a residential density up to thirty-two (32) units per acre. The prop osed project will consist of fifteen (15) units which is within that allowable density. The proposed PUD development standards have also been designed to be consistent with the surrounding residential neighborhoods. As designed, the site is able to accommodate fifteen (15) units, along with parking, landscaping, private and common recreation areas, setbacks, and other development standards of the proposed PUD.

Therefore, the property is physically suitable for the proposed density of the development, as all owed under the MDR land use designation, and the proposed PUD-019-2024 with R-3 base zoning.

6. That the design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems.

The design of the residential subdivision and the proposed improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems. Additionally, certain conditions of approval will be in place to further safeguard public health. The 388
proposed subdivision has been designed to comply with the intent of the MDR General Plan land use designation, and the R -3 (multiple-Family Residential) base zone. City Departments, including the Traffic Division, Water Division, Engineering Division and the Planning Services Division, and the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) have reviewed the proposed development and have applied conditions of approval to minimize potential impacts that the project may have on the community, including public health.

7. That the design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements w ill not conflict with easements of record or easements established by court judgment acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision; or, if such easements exist, that alternate easements for access or for use will be provided, and that these will be substantially equivalent to the ones previously acquired by the public.

The design of the residential subdivision and the proposed improvements will not conflict with easements of record, or easements established by court judgment acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. The project has been designed to avoid development over existing easements.

8. That the design and improvement of the proposed subdivision are suitable for the uses proposed, and the subdivision can be developed in compliance with the applicable zoning regulations.

Under the proposed Amendment No. A -040-2024, the City’s Official Zoning Map will be amended to rezone the project site from R -1 (Single -Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone, to facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit project, and to ensure consistency with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The proposed Zoning Map amendment will facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit condominium project. The site’s proposed detached, small-lot subdivision style housing is compatible with the surrounding area, which consists of a mix of multiple -family and single-family residential uses.

Accordingly, the PUD zone with the R-3 base zone is appropriate for the site, as it will be consistent with the v ariety of residential developments in the immediate area. In addition, the site has access to all necessary public infrastructure to adequately serve the proposed development.

The design and improvement of the subdivision, as proposed under Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT -19298 is suitable for the fifteen (15) proposed residential units. The proposed subdivision has been specifically designed to accommodate the fifteen (15) residential units on the subject property, and to create a one -lot subdivisi on for the purpose of selling each unit as a condominium. Therefore, the design and improvement of the proposed 389
subdivision is suitable for the proposed use and the subdivision can be developed in compliance with the MDR land use designation, and the proposed residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone.

9. That the design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities in the subdivision.

To the extent feasible, the project has been designed in accordance with Government Code Section 66473.1, such as to allow for passive or natural heating opportunities in the subdivision design, to encourage the orientation of structures to take advantage of shade and prevailing breezes, to allow solar access for passive heating and opportunities for placement of shade trees and other vegetation for cooling.

10. That the design, density and configuration of the subdivision strikes a balance between the effect of the subdivision on the housing needs of the region and of public service needs.

The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 would create a one- lot subdivision to sell each of the fifteen (15) proposed residential units as a condominiums. The project has been reviewed in relation to the housing needs and goals of the City, and is compatible with the existing developments in the immediate vicini ty, including the Garden Park Townhomes. The proposed development will increase the number of residential units, and further the goals of the Housing Element of the General Plan. The proposed subdivision would allow for the sale of each proposed residential unit.

11. That the that the character of the subdivision is compatible with the design of existing structures and lot sizes of the subdivision are substantially the same as the lot sizes within the general area.

The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 would create a one- lot subdivision to sell each of the fifteen (15) proposed detached residential units as a condominium. The proposed subdivision would allow for the sale of each proposed residential unit. This design is similar to the surro unding Garden Park Townhomes development. Moreover, the project complies with the density requirements of the General Plan, as well as the proposed Residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone.

12. The subject property is not located within a state responsibility area or a very high fire hazard severity zone, the proposed subdivision is served by local fire suppression services, and the proposed subdivision meets applicable design, location, and ingress-egress requirements.

The subject property is not located within a state responsibility area or a very high fire hazard severity zone. The Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) has 390
reviewed the proposed subdivision, and found that the project will be adequately served by local fire suppression services, and the proposed subdivision meets applicable design, location, and ingress -egress requirements. Furthermore, the project has been conditioned to comply with all OCFA requirements relating to f ire suppression services, and emergency access.

CEQA DETERMINATION: Mitigated
Negative Declaration

REQUEST:

A request that the Planning Commission recommend City Council approval of a zoning map amendment, residential Planned Unit Development, and related entitlements for a proposed 15-unit multiple-family residential project on an approximately 0.88-acre site.

The specific land use entitlement approvals requested include the following: (i) zoning map amendment to re-zone the subject property from R-1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) zoning with an R-3 (Multiple- Family Residential) base zone; (ii) residential Planned Unit Development to facilitate the development of the project; (iii) Site Plan approval to construct fifteen (15) three-story detached homes along with associated site improvements; (iv) a Vesting Tentative Tract Map to create a one -lot subdivision for the purpose of selling each dwelling unit as a condominium; and (v) a Variance to deviate from the minimum property size to establish a residential Planned Unit Development. The Planning Commission will also consider a recommendation that the City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and an associated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project.

BACKGROUND:

The project site is currently comprised of an approximately 38 ,775 square-foot (0.88 acres) parcel on the east side of Newhope Street, north of Garden Grove Boulevard. The site is currently developed with a vacant single -family residence, which will be demolished as a part of the sub ject request. The subject site has a General Plan Land Use designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR) and is zoned R-1 (Single-Family Residential). The property abuts R -1 zoned properties developed with single -family dwellings to the east. To the north, south, and west, across Newhope Street, the subject site is adjacent to the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development, within the Planned Unit Development No. PUD-102-72 zone.

STAFF REPORT FOR PUBLIC HEARING PAGE 2 CASE NOS. A-040-2024, PUD-019-2024, SP -136-2024, Vesting TT-19298, & V-042-2024

The applicant is requesting (i) a zoning map amendment to establish a residential PUD zone (PUD-019-2024) with a n R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone; (ii) residential Planned Unit Development zoning to facilitate the development of the project; (iii) Site Plan approval to construct 15 three-story detached homes along with associated site improvements; (iv) a Vesting Tentative Tract Map to create a one-lot subdivision for the purpose of selling each dwelling unit as a condominium; and (v) a Variance to deviate from the minimum property size to establish a residential PUD zone.

The applicant is proposing detached condominium units, designed as single -family homes, similar to a small -lot subdivision. The applicant reviewed the City’s small -lot subdivision ordinance, and used the development standards therein as a b asis for the subject project.

Each proposed unit is approximately 1,675 square feet, and will consist of three (3) or four (4) bedrooms, three (3) bathrooms, an attached two-car garage, and a front porch.

Associated site improvements will consist of a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance , driveways at each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements. In conjunction with the request, the applicant is requesting that the Planning Commission consider a recommendation that the City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and an associated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project.

The subject pr operty’s Medium Density Residential ( MDR) General Plan land use designation is intended for the development of mainly multi -family residential neighborhoods that: provide a variety of housing types; provide access to schools, parks, and other community services; provide a high-quality architectural design that preserves privacy; provide common spaces, recreation areas and services convenient to residents; provide an excellent environment for family life; and preserve residential property values. The MDR land use designation is intended for up to 32 dwelling units per acre.

The proposed residential Planned Unit Development is intended to facilitate a housing development that is more compatible with the surrounding Garden Park Townhome development. For example, the surrounding Garden Park Townhomes were constructed at a density of approximately eleven (11) units per acre, with 10’-0” setbacks to the side and rear property lines, a 31.08% lot coverage, and a parking ratio of approximately 2.2 parking spaces per unit . The proposed project, as facilitated through the residential Planned Unit Development , will provide a density of approximately seventeen (17) dwelling units per acre , with minimum 10’ -0” side and rear setbacks, 29.43% lot coverage, and 4.1 parking spaces per unit, respectively.

Pursuant to Amendment No. A -035-2022, Garden Grove Municipal Code Section

9.32.030 (Land Use Actions) provides that where a requested land use action also requires approval of an action by the City Council, the City C ouncil shall be the final review authority for such land use action, and the Planning Commission shall transmit a recommendation to the City Council. Since the requested project requires City Council approval of a zone change, and a Planned Unit Development (PUD), the City Council is 415

DISCUSSION:

ZONING MAP AMENDMENT:

As a part of this request, Amendment No. A-040-2024 will modify the base zoning of the property from an R -1 (Single -Family Residential) to a residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) with an R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone. The R-3 base zoning is consistent with the Medium Density Residential (MDR) General Plan land use designation, and rezoning of the property will facilitate the development of the proposed project under the proposed Planned Unit Development, which is based on the R-3 standards of the Municipal Code.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT NO. PUD-019-2024:

A Planned Unit Development (PUD) is a precise plan, adopted by ordinance, that provides the means for the regulation of buildings, structures and uses of land in order to facilitate the implementation of the General Plan. The regulations of the PUD are intended to provide for a diversity of uses, relationships and open spaces in an innovative land plan and design, while ensuring compliance with the provisions of the Municipal Code. The PUD is governed by zoning regulations that are contained within the ordinance that ultimately adopts the planned unit development and the base zone, which is the zoning district for the land contained within the PUD. Except as otherwise provided by the ordinance approving the PUD, all use and development standards of the base zone continue to apply to the PUD.

As discussed above, as part of the subject request, the zoning of the project site would be changed to an R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone, which would permit adoption of a PUD.

The adoption of the PUD would allow for the project to be more consistent and compatible with the surrounding Garden Park Townhomes. As part of the proposed project, the City’s Zoning Map would be amended to change the zoning of the project site to Residential Planned Unit Development zoning (PUD -019-2024), with R -3 base zoning to allow for and facilitate development of the project. Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024 would be the residential PUD zoning that establishes the development standards for the project, and where not otherwise specified, the zoning standards in the R -3 base zone would apply. Planned Unit Development No. PUD -019-2024 would be the residential PUD zoning that establishes the development standards for the project, and where not otherwise specified, the zoning standards in the R -3 base zone would apply.

Development standards specified in the PUD include, but are not limited to, setbacks, parking, building heights, and open space requirements.

VARIANCE:

Section 9.12.030.020.C.2 of the Municipal Code requires all residential Planned Unit Developments to provide a minimum lot size of one (1) acre. The subject lot is 0.88 acres in area, which is less than the minimum. Therefore, a Variance is required for the establishment of the PUD zoning , and to allow a deviation from the minimum lot size 417
STAFF REPORT FOR PUBLIC HEARING PAGE 5 CASE NOS. A-040-2024, PUD-019-2024, SP -136-2024, Vesting TT-19298, & V-042-2024

requirement for a residential PUD . Findings supporting the requested Variance are included in proposed Resolution 6087-24

SITE PLAN:

Site Design and Circulation

The proposed design consists of 15 detached single-family style condominium units.

Units 1 through 7 are located along the southern side of the site, whilst Units 8 through 15 are located along the northern side of the site. A common recreation area improved with lounge seating, a shade structure, and a flexible lawn space will be located at the southwest corner of the site, next to Unit 1. The units and common recreation area face a proposed internal twenty-four foot (24’-0”) wide central drive aisle that leads from the development’s entrance from Newhope Street . The proposed private street will serve as the only vehicular access point to the project site. Each proposed unit is improved with an attached garage and driveway for parking, which have access f rom the central drive aisle. Two (2) open guest parking spaces are provided near the project entrance along Newhope Street, adjacent to the proposed common open space.

Just south of the private aisle, and running parallel with it, is a four -foot (4’-0”) wide sidewalk. The internal sidewalk connect s the common recreation area and guest parking spaces to the development. Units #2, #3, #4, and #6, along the southern property line, have a three-foot (3’-0”) wide concrete walkway that connects the entries directly to the sidewalk. The remaining units have a three -foot (3’-0”) wide walkway that connects the entries to their respective driveway areas.

While the project features detached single-family style condominium units, the project was designed to rese mble a small -lot subdivision. Each unit features a three-story dwelling, an attached two-car garage, a driveway with two (2) parking spaces, and a private rear yard. As proposed by the Planned Unit Development standards , the development observes a minimum 15-0” front setback from Newhope Street. Each individual unit observes an eighteen-foot (18’-0”) setback from the main drive aisle to the garages at the front of the each unit. The Planned Unit Development also proposes minimum ten-foot (10’-0”) side setbacks for rear yards (along the north and south property lines), minimum twelve-foot (12’-0”) rear setbacks (to the east), and minimum seven-and-a-half foot (7’-6”) separations between the detached units. The proposed standards for the PUD are ba sed on, and consistent with, the existing Garden Park Townhomes, which were approved with ten-foot (10’-0”), front, side, and rear setbacks.

Unit Design

The proposed project will consist of fifteen (15), three-story detached single-family style condominium units. The units are approximately 1,675 square feet, and consist of three (3) bedrooms, a ground-level “flex” room, three (3) full bathrooms, a half-bathroom, an 8 square-foot porch, and a 440 square-foot attached two-car garage.

On the ground floor, each unit will have a two -car garage, a “flex” room, and one (1) half bathroom. An optional floor plan is also proposed that would replace the “flex” room with an additional bedroom, and the half bathroom with a full bathroom. On the second floor, each unit will provide a kitchen, a living/dining area, and a half-bathroom.

On the third floor, each unit features three (3) bedrooms and two (2) full bathrooms.

Private Recreation Area

The proposed Planned Unit Development includes a minimum ten-foot (10’-0”) deep by twenty-one foot (21’-0”) wide rear yard recreation space for each unit. Consistent with the Small-Lot Subdivision standards of the Municipal Code, t he private recreation area shall be conveniently located next to the unit, and accessed directly from a common area, such as a living room, family room, dining area, or kitchen. The private recreation area may also be located within the interior side, street side, or rear setback areas.

Each unit is required to provide a minimum ten -foot (10’ -0”) by a minimum 25’-0” private recreation area. Provided recreation area depths range from ten feet (10’-0”) to fifteen feet (15’-0”), and widths range from twenty-eight feet and six inches (28’-6”) to thirty-three (33’-0”) feet. The private recreation areas are conveniently accessed from the entry to each unit, on the ground-floor, adjacent to the garage. Conditions of approval will require that all private recreation areas be open and unobstructed from the ground to the sky at all times.

Common Recreation Area

The Planned Unit Development Standards propose a minimum required common recreation space of 100 square feet per unit, however, the proposed project will exceed this minimum requirement . The project will provide the required common recreation area in the southwest corner of the property, adjacent to the main entrance from Newhope Street . The proje ct provides a n approximately 1,590 square-foot active recreational open space area with minimum dimensions of 35’-0” in each direction. The recreation area features lounge seating, a shade structure, and a flexible lawn space.

Parking

The Planned Unit Development Standards proposes a minimum parking ratio of 3.75 parking spaces per unit, consistent with Municipal Code Section 9.12.040.060.O (Required Parking and Enclosed Garages), for a total of 57 required spaces. Consistent with the City’s Small-Lot Subdivision requirements, each unit also requires a two -car garage. The remaining parking may be provided as a combination of driveway parking, and designated guest parking on-site.

The project has been designed to provide two-car garages for each unit, two (2) spaces in front of each two -car garage in the driveway , and two (2) additional open guest parking spaces adjacent to the common open space. The total parking will consist of 30 spaces within two -car garages, two (2) open guest spa ces, and 30 spaces on the 419

Perimeter Walls and Landscaping

The project site is currently improved with perimeter block walls along most of the property lines. The proposed Planned Unit Development standards are consistent with the requirements of Municipal Code Section 9.12.040.060.C (Development Perimeter Block Wall). The project will provide a six-foot (6’-0”) tall decorative block wall in areas where the existing wall has been damaged, or is otherwise missing. In addition, a six- foot (6’-0”) tall vinyl fencing will be provided between each unit for privacy.

A new six-foot (6’-0”) tall decorative block wall is also proposed approximately five feet (5’-4”) from the front property line along Newhope Street. The location of the perimeter block wall, which is set back from the sidewalk for safety purposes, is designed to ensure proper vision clearance for vehicles entering or leaving the driveway. The development’s street frontage will also be improved with landscaping, numerous trees, and various groundcover material. The development’s entrance will also be improved with enhanced concrete paving to provide a sense of arrival.

The proposed Planned Unit Development standards for landscaping are consistent with Municipal Code Section 9.12.040.060.S (Landscaping), which requires all setback areas, and all areas not designated for walkways, parking, drive aisles, and private recreation areas, to be fully landscaped and irrigated. In addition to the landscaping in the street frontage area along Newhope Street, the project proposes landscaping in the common recreation area, and each dwelling’s front and side yards visible from the main drive aisle, using a variety of trees and plant materials. The applicant is required to provide a landscape and irrigation plan that complies with the requirements of the City’s Water Efficiency Guidelines within the Municipal Code . The project has been conditioned as such.

Building Architecture

The project proposes two (2) architectural styles: Plan 1a (Spanish), and Plan 1b (Santa Barbara). The “Spanish” homes will exhibit elevations with stucco exteriors, flat concrete tile roofing, fascia boards at gable ends, squared doorways, decorative window trims, balconies, and Spanish style wall lighting. The “Santa Barbara” homes will also exhibit elevations with stucco exteriors, varied rooflines, concrete “S” tile roofing, rounded doorways, decorative pipes at gable ends, modern window trims, and contemporary wall lighting. The “Santa Barbara” style also features an alternate design for units 1 and 15. 420
STAFF REPORT FOR PUBLIC HEARING PAGE 8 CASE NOS. A-040-2024, PUD-019-2024, SP -136-2024, Vesting TT-19298, & V-042-2024

These two (2) units, facing Newhope Street, will receive a more enhance d design, with a bump-out window feature on the second-floor windows.

Each architectural style is available in one (1) of six (6) color schemes. The color schemes portray more neutral earth tones, such as beiges, browns, and burnt umber.

The collective color palette of the proposed development is consistent with the colors found throughout the Garden Park Townhomes.

Additionally, each unit has been designed to minimize views from second and third-floor windows into adjacent units and properties. To the east, adjacent to the abutting R-1 (Single-Family Residential) properties, a raised sill height will be provided. To the north and south, adjacent to the existing Garden Park Townhomes, a line-of-sight drawing was provided, showing sufficient separation from the upper-floor windows to the surrounding units. There are no direct views from the proposed project into the existing townhomes.

VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP:

In accordance with the State Subdivision Map Act, the applicant is requesting approval of Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT -19298 to create a one -lot subdivision for the purpose of selling each unit as a condominium. As proposed in the Tentative Tract, the project will consist of fifteen (15) dwelling units, and one (1) lot will consist of the common recreation and central access aisle areas. The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map is in conformance with the proposed PUD requirements for the site, as well as the State Subdivision Map Act.

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA):

The proposed project was reviewed and an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) was prepared pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq. and the CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Sections 150 00 et seq.). Based on the Initial Study and supporting technical analyses, it was determined that all potentially adverse environmental impacts can be mitigated to a level of less than significant. On this basis, a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitig ation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) have been prepared. The complete environmental document is available for review at the City’s webpage at: ggcity.org/planning/environmental-documents.

The 20-day public comment period on the Mitigated Negative Declaration occurred from March 29, 2024 to April 18, 2024.

No Net Loss:

The subject parcel is not on the City’s Housing Element sites inventory list, and the City is not proposing to change the zoning of the parcel to a less intensive use . Therefore, the City is not required to make “No Net Loss” findings pursuant to Government Code Section 65863 and Garden Grove Municipal Code Section 9.60.030 in order to approve the proposed project.

Replacement Housing and Tenant Protections:

Pursuant to Government Code § 66300.6(a), the City may not approve a housing development project that will require the demolition of residential dwelling units unless the project will create at least as many residential dwelling units as will be demolished.

This proposed project satisfies this requirement because it will replace one (1) existing unit with 15 new dwellings.

In order to prevent new development projects from displacing existing lower income rental households, Government Code §66300.6(b) also imposes several requirements that the City must require a developer to comply with when a proposed development project will require the demolition of occupied or vacant “protected units”. “Protected units” include residential dwelling units that are or were occupied by lower or very-low income rental households within the past five (5) years. The subject property has been owner-occupied for at least the last five (5) years. Therefore, the project is not required to replace any “protected units”.

1. The Planning Commission hereby recommends the City Council adopt an Ordinance approving Amendment No. A -040-2024, and Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, FOUND AND DETERMINED that the facts and reasons supporting the conclusion of the Planning Commission, as required under Municipal Code Section 9.32.030 and 9.12.030.020, are as follows:

FACTS:

The project site is currently comprised of an approximately 38,775 square-foot (0.88 acres) parcel on the east side of Newhope Street, north of Garden Grove Boulevard. 428
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 3

The site is currently developed with a vacant single -family residence. The subject site has a General Plan Land Use designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR) and is zoned R-1 (Single Family Residential). The property abuts R-1 zoned properties developed with single-family dwellings to the east. To the north, south, and west, across Newhope Street, the subject site is adjacent to the Garden Park Townhome s condominium development, within the Planned Unit Development No. PUD -102-72 zone.

The proposed project will consist of fifteen (15) three-story detached single-family style condominium units. Each unit is approximately 1,675 square feet, and will consist of three (3) or four (4) bedrooms, two (2) or three (3 ) full bathrooms, one (1) or two (2) half bathrooms, an attached two -car garage, and a front porch.

Associated site improvements will cons ist of a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance, driveways at each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements.

The subject property’s MDR land use designation is intended for the development of mainly multi -family residential neighborhoods that: provide a variety of housing types; provide access to schools, parks, and other community services; provide a high-quality architectural design that preserves privacy; provide common spaces, recreation areas and services convenient to residents; provide an excellent environment for family life; and preserve residential property values. The MDR land use designation allows for a residential density of up to 32 dwelling units per acre.

FINDINGS AND REASONS:

Zoning Amendment

1. Proposed Amendment No. A-040-2024 is internally consistent with the goals, policies, and elements of the General Plan.

Under the proposed Amendment No . A-040-2024, the City’s Official Zoning Map will be amended to rezone the subject property from R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) zoning with an R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone, to ensure consistency with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The proposed PUD -019-2024 with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone implements the MDR Land Use Designation. This PUD zone is intended to facilitate the development of the subject condominium development. The MDR land use designation is intended for a range of 21.1 to 32 dwelling units per 429
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 4

acre. The proposed project will consist of 15 units, or 17 units per acre, which is less than the maximum allowed.

Rezoning the site from R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone is consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan Land Use Element, including:

Policy LU-2.2: Strive to provide a diverse mix of housing types, along with uniformly high standards of residential property maintenance to preserve residents’ real estate values and their high quality of life. The proposed development of fifteen (15) for-sale units will add to the mix of diverse housing types in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed development will ensure maintenance of all common areas, such as the private drive aisle, guest parking areas, the common recreation area, and street frontage landscaping, which will be the responsibility of the Homeowner’s Association to ensure proper maintenance that preserves the residents’ real estate values.

Furthermore, the project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

Policy LU-2.4: Assure that the type and intensity of land use shall be consistent with that of the immediate neighborhood. The site is located within a residential neighborhood, characteriz ed by the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development to the north, west, and south. To the east, the project abuts R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned properties. The proposed PUD zone with an R-3 base zone, allowing for up to seventeen (17) units per acre is appropriate, as it will not only provide opportunities for new housing developments, but also be consistent with the surrounding lower density neighborhood.

Goal LU -4: The City seeks to develop uses that are compatible with one another. The 0.88 -acre site is proposed to be improved with fifteen (15) condominium units, at seventeen ( 17) units per acre, which is within the allowable density of 32 units per acre otherwise allowed under the R -3 base zoning and the existing Medium Density Residential (MDR) General Plan Land Use Designation of the property. The proposed PUD will , limit the maximum density to seventeen (17) units per acre. The proposed project is within the allowed density of the MDR land use designation and is similar in scale to the adjoining residential neighborhood. The proposed design will consist of three- story units, which are allowed by the R -3 base zone. Thus, the project is similar both in land use intensity and physical scale of the adjoining residential neighborhood.

430
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 5

Policy LU -4.1: Locate higher -density residential uses within proximity of commercial uses to encourage pedestrian traffic, and to provide a consumer base for commercial uses. The site is located within a residential neighborhood with nearby access to Garden Grove Boulevard , a major commercial area .

Approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of an existing property with fifteen (15) condominium. The construction of the new residential units would increase the local p opulation, and add to the consumer base for commercial services within the immediate vicinity.

Goal H-2: Housing supply to accommodate housing needs at all affordability levels. The proposed project will provide fifteen (15) new, market -rate, for- sale housing units. This type of project helps further diversify the City’s housing stock and increase housing opportunities . The number of units will further contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

Policy H-3.1: Maintain land use policies and regulations that create capacity for the development of a range of residential development types that can fulfill local housing needs, including accessory dwelling units, low -density single- family uses, moderate-density townhomes and middle housing, higher-density apartments and condominiums, senior housing, and mixed -use projects.

Approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of a vacant single -family developed property with fift een (15), detached, market-rate residential units. The zoning amendment, to establish residential Planned Unit Development ( PUD-019-2024) zoning with an R -3 base zone allows for this development specifically. This medium-density development will provide a net increase of four teen (14) units, as compared to the existing condition of the property, creating additional housing capacity.

Policy CD-7.1: Encourage future development and redevelopment projects to reinforce district scale, identity, and urban form. The site is surro unded on three sides by the existing Garden Park Townhomes development. The adoption of the PUD -019-2024 zone will help ensure the proposed development will be consistent with the existing townhom e community. The proposed three-story townhome project will be consistent with the form and scale of the immediate neighborhood.

2. Proposed Amendment No. A -040-2024 is deemed to promote the public interest, health, safety and welfare.

Under the proposed Amendment No. A -040-2024, the City’s Official Zoning Map will be amended to rezone the project site from R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) zoning 431
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 6

with an R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone, to facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) u nit project, and to ensure consistency with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The subject property is currently improved with an unoccupied single -family home. As facilitated through the proposed Amendment, an otherwise vacant property will be developed with fifteen (15) residential units, and associated site features. A net increase of fourteen (14) residential units will help promote the public interest, as it helps the City achieve its housing goals. It also will allow the redevelopment of a property, helping ensure proper maintenance.

Furthermore, the project has been reviewed by the Community Development and Public Works Department, and Orange County Fire Authority to help ensure the project promotes public health, safety, and welfare.

3. The proposed Zoning Map Amendment will ensure a degree of compatibility with surrounding properties and uses.

Under the proposed Amendment No. A -040-2024, the City’s Official Zoning Map will be amended to rezo ne the project site from R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone, to facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit project, and to ensu re consistency with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of the proposed project. The site’s proposed small -lot subdivision style housing is compatible with the surrounding residential uses and properties. Accordingly, the R-3 base zoning designation is appropriate for the site and will ensure that the site is compatible with and is developed and maintained in continuity with surrounding land uses.

4. The parcels covered by the proposed amendment to the Zoning Map are physically suitable for the requested land use designation(s), compatible with the surrounding land uses, and consistent with the General Plan.

Under the proposed Amendment No. A -040-2024, the City’s Official Zoning Map will be amended to rezone the project site from zoning map amendment to re -zone the subject property from R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (P UD-019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone, to facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit detached condominium project, and to ensure 432
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 7

consistency with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The proposed Zoning Map amendment will facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit townhome project. The site’s proposed detached, single-family style condominium units are compatible with the surrounding area, which consists of a mix of multiple -family and single-family residential uses. Accordingly, the PUD zone with the R-3 base zone is appropriate for the site, as it will be consistent with the variety of residential developments in the immediate area. In addition, the site has access to all necessary public infrastructure to adequately serve the proposed development.

Planned Unit Development

1. That the location, design and proposed uses are compatible with the character of existing development in the vicinity and will be well integrated into its setting.

The proposed residential Planned Unit Development is intended to facilitate a housing development that is more compatible with the surrounding Garden Park Townhome development. The surrounding Garden Park Townhomes were constructed at a density of approximately eleven (11) units per acre, with ten- foot (10’-0”) setbacks to the side and rear property lines, 31.08% lot coverage, and a parking ratio of approximately 2. 2 parking spaces per unit. The proposed project, as facilitated through the residential Planned Unit Development, will provide a density of approximately seventeen (17) dwelling units per acre, with minimum ten-foot (10’-0”) side and rear setbacks, 29.43% lot coverage, and 4.1 parking spaces per unit, respectively.

The Planned Unit Development allows for the proposed development to be more consistent with the Garden Park Townhomes that surround the subject site. The Garden Park Townhomes were approved in 1972, under Planned Unit Development No. PUD -102-72. The Planned Unit Development adopted for the townhomes in 1972 do not meet the current Municipal Code standards.

Therefore, the proposed Planned Unit Development No. PUD -019-2024 is necessary and appropriate to establish development standards that are more consistent and compatible with the development standards of the Garden Park Townhomes.

2. That the plan will produce a stable and desirable environment and will not cause undue traffic congestion on surrounding or access streets.

The subject project proposes an internal twenty-four foot (24’-0”) wide central drive aisle that leads from the development’s entrance from Newhope Street. 433
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 8

The proposed private street will serve as the only vehicular access point to the project site. Each proposed unit is improved with an attached garage and driveway for parking, which have access from the central drive aisle. Just south of the private aisle, and running parallel with it, is a four -foot (4’-0”) wide sidewalk. The internal sidewalk connect the common recreation area and guest parking spaces to the development. Certain units along the southern property line have a three -foot (3’-0”) wide concrete walkway that connects the entries to the sidewalk. The remaining units have a three-foot (3’-0”) wide walkway that connects the entries to their respective driveway areas.

The on-site circulation was designed in such a manner to ensure proper access and safety for vehicles driving within the proposed development , and along the adjacent Newhope Street. The City’s Traffic Engineering Division is supportive of the project, and has reviewed the proposed plans, and the associated Traffic Memorandum prepared by a qualified Traffic Engineer.

3. That the provision is made for both public and private open spaces.

Each unit will provide a private recreation area with depths ranging from ten feet (10’-0”) to fifteen feet (15’-0”) and widths ranging from twenty-eight feet and six inches (28’ -6”) to thirty -three feet (33’ -0”). The private recreation areas are conveniently accessed from the entry to each unit, on the ground - floor, adjacent to the garage. Conditions of approval will require that all private recreation areas be open and unobstructed from the ground to the sky at all times.

Additionally, the Planned Unit Development S tandards propose a minimum common recreation space of 100 square feet per unit. The project will provide the required common recreation area in the southwest corner of the property, adjacent to the main entrance from Newhope Street. The project provides an approximately 1,590 square -foot active recreational op en space area with minimum dimensions of 35’-0” in each direction. The recreation area features lounge seating, a shade structure, and a flexible lawn space

The central drive aisle, sidewalk, and front and side yard landscaping are all private to the subject development, but open and shared amongst the proposed units. These areas will also feature passive landscaping, lighting, and other site features.

4. That provision is made for the protection and maintenance of private areas reserved for common use.

The Planned Unit Development provides for the protection and maintenance of private areas for common use via a shared recreation area on-site. 434
Resolution No. 6086-24 Page 9

The Plann ed Unit Development Standards propose a minimu m common recreation space of 100 square feet per unit. The project will provide the required common recreation area in the southwest corner of the property, adjacent to the main entrance from Newhope Street. The project provides an approximately 1,590 square -foot active recreational open space area with minimum dimensions of 35’-0” in each direction. The recreation area features lounge seating, a shade structure, and a flexible lawn space.

5. That the quality of the project achieved through the planned unit development zoning is greater than could be achieved through traditional zoning.

The requested Planned Unit Development will help facilitate the development of residential units, to be sold as condominium s, similar to the Garden Park Townhomes. The Garden Park Townhomes were approved in 1972, under Planned Unit Development No. PUD -102-72. The PUD -102-72 development standards do not meet the current Municipal Code standards, for amongst other things, setbacks, parking, and required open space. In an effort to be consistent with the directly adjacent Garden Park Townhomes development, the subject project is intending to develop in a similar scale and scope. Strictly following the R-3 base zone standards would not allow for the proposed project to more closely match the development patterns of the existing neighborhood.

Therefore, the proposed Planned Unit Development is necessary to establish development standards that are more consistent and compatible with the development standards of the Garden Park Townhome approval in 1972.

These development standards differ from those achieved through traditional zoning. The adoption of the Planned Unit Development will allow for the subject parcel to develop in a manner consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. Maintaining neighborhood consistency, and harmony amongst different developments, can only be achieved through the proposed PUD.

443

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 3

FACTS:

The project site is currently comprised of an approximately 38,775 square-foot (0.88 acres) parcel on the east side of Newhope Street, north of Garden Grove Boulevard.

The site is currently developed with a vacant single-family residence. The subject site has a General Plan Land Use designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR) and is zoned R -1 (Single -Family Residential). The property abuts R -1 zoned properties developed with single-family dwellings to the east. To the north, south, and west, across Newhope Street, the subject site is adjacent to the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development, withi n the Planned Unit Development No.

PUD-102-72 zone.

The proposed project will consist of fifteen (15), three -story detached single-family style condominium units . Each unit is approximately 1,675 square feet, and will consist of three (3) or four (4) bedrooms, two (2) or three (3) full bathrooms, one (1) or two (2) half bathrooms, an attached two -car garage, and a front porch.

Associated site improvements will consist of a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance, driveways a t each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements.

The project site’s MDR land use designation is intended for the development of mainly multi-family residential neighborhoods that: provide a variety of housing types; provide access to schools, parks, and other community services; provide a high - quality architectural design that preserves privacy; provide common spaces, recreation areas and servi ces convenient to residents; provide an excellent environment for family life; and preserve residential property values. The MDR land use designation allows for a residential density of up to 32 dwelling units per acre.

FINDINGS AND REASONS:

SITE PLAN

1. The proposed development project is consistent, in compliance, and conformity with the applicable, objective standards, provisions, conditions or requirements of the General Plan, Title 9, or other applicable ordinances or policies of the City.

The proposed project includes the construction of fifteen (15) residential units, along with associated site improvements, including, but not limited to a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance, driveways at each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements.

With the approval of Amendment No. A -040-2024, and Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024, the subject site will be zoned PUD-019-2024 with an R-3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone . The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain , and enhance residential areas 444

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 4

characterized by mostly traditional multi-family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes. The MDR land use designation is implemented by the R -3 zone, which is intended to provide for a variety of types and densities of multiple - family residential dwellings. The proposed project is also consistent with several goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, including the following:

Policy LU-2.2: Strive to provide a diverse mix of housing types, along with uniformly high standards of residential property maintenance to preserve residents’ real estate values and their high quality of life. The proposed development of fifteen (15) for-sale units will add to the mix of diverse housing types in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed development will ensure maintenance of all common areas, such as the private drive aisle, guest parking areas, the common recreation area, and street frontage landscaping, which will be the responsibility of the Homeowner’s Association to ensure proper maintenance that preserves the residents’ real estate values.

Furthermore, the project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

Policy LU-2.4: Assure that the type and intensity of land use shall be consistent with that of the immediate neighborhood. The site is located within a residential neighborhood, characterized by the Gard en Park Townhomes condominium development to the north, west, and south. To the east, the project abuts R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned properties. The proposed development, with a density of seventeen (17) units per acre is appropriate, as it will not only provide opportunities for new housing developments, but also be consistent with the surrounding lower density neighborhood.

Goal LU -4: The City seeks to develop uses that are compatible with one another. The 0.88-acre site is proposed to be improved with fifteen (15) three- story, detached, residential units, at seventeen (17) units per acre. This is within the allowable density of thirty-two (32) units per acre of the R-3 base zoning and the MDR General Plan land use designation of the property . The proposed project is within the allowed density of the MDR land use designation and similar in scale to the adjoining residential neighborhood. The proposed design will consist of three -story detached condominium units, which are allowed by the proposed R-3 base zoning. Thus, the project is similar both in land use intensity and physical scale of the adjoining residential neighborhood.

Policy LU -4.1: Locate higher -density residential uses within proximity of commercial uses to encourage pedestrian t raffic, and to provide a consumer base for commercial uses. The site is located within a residential neighborhood with nearby access to Garden Grove Boulevard, a major commercial area.

Approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of an existing property with fifteen (15) condominium units. The construction of the new residential units would increase the local population, and add to the consumer base for commercial services within the immediate vicinity.

445

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 5

Goal H-2: Housing supply to accommodate housing needs at all affordability levels. The proposed project will provide fifteen (15) new, market -rate, for- sale housing units and increase housing opportunities. The number of units will further contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA).

Policy H-3.1: Maintain land use policies and regulations that create capacity for the development of a range of residential development types that can fulfill local housing needs, including accessory dwelling units, low -density single- family uses, moderate-density townhomes and middle housing, higher-density apartments and condominiums, senior housing, and mixed-use projects. The proposed project would facilitate the development of a vacant single -family property with fifteen (15), detached, market -rate, r esidential units. This moderate-density multiple-family development will provide a net increase of fourteen (14) units, as compared to the existing condition of the property, creating additional housing capacity.

Policy CD-7.1: Encourage future development and redevelopment projects to reinforce district scale, identity, and urban form. The site is surrounded on three sides by the existing Garden Park Townhomes development. The proposed development has been developed, to the greatest extent possible to be consistent with the existing to wnhome community. The proposed project will be consistent with the form and scale of the immediate neighborhood.

2. The provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act have been complied with.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq., and the CEQA guidelines, 14 California Code of Regulations Sec. 15000 et. seq., an Initial Study was prepared and it has been determined that the prop osed Project qualifies for a Mitigated Negative Declaration because the proposed Project with implementation of the proposed mitigation measures cannot, or will not, have a significant effect on the environment. A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Progr am has been prepared and is attached to the Mitigated Negative Declaration listing the mitigation measures to be monitored during project implementation. The Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were prepared and circulated in accordance with CEQA and CEQA's implementing guidelines. Therefore, the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act have been complied with. Pursuant to Resolution No. 6088-24, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Coun cil adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration and the associated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project.

3. The proposed development project does not have specific, adverse impacts, as defined in subdivision (j)(1)(A) of Government Code Sec tion 65589.5, on public health and safety without any feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate 446

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 6

or avoid the specific adverse impact, other than the disapproval of the proposed project.

The proposed fifteen (15) residential unit development will not have specific, adverse impacts on public health and safety. The proposed project is within the maximum allowable density, is compatible with surrounding uses, is similar in scale to the adjoining neighborhood, and is consistent with l and use types and intensities in the immediate neighborhood. Furthermore, the Project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

VESTING TENTATIVE TRACT MAP

1. That the proposed map is consistent with the General Plan.

The proposed project includes the construction of fifteen (15) residential units, along with associated site improvements, including, but not limited to a private drive aisle, visitor parking adjacent to the main entrance, driveways at each garage with additional parking spaces, a common recreation area, private open space areas at the rear yards of each lot, and site landscaping improvements.

With the approval of Amendment No. A -040-2024, and Planned Unit Development No. PUD-019-2024, the subject site will be zoned PUD-019-2024 with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential). The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes.

The MD R land use designation is implemented by the R -3 zone, which is intended to provide for a variety of types and densities of multiple -family residential dwellings. The proposed project is also consistent with several goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, including the following:

Policy LU-2.2: Strive to provide a diverse mix of housing types, along with uniformly high standards of residential property maintenance to preserve residents’ real estate values and their high quality of life. The propose d development of fifteen (15) for-sale units will add to the mix of diverse housing types in the immediate neighborhood. The proposed development will ensure maintenance of all common areas, such as the private drive aisle, guest parking areas, the common recreation area, and street frontage landscaping, which will be the responsibility of the Homeowner’s Association to ensure proper maintenance that preserves the residents’ real estate values.

Furthermore, the project will contribute to meeting the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), as well as the Housing Element policies.

Policy LU-2.4: Assure that the type and intensity of land use shall be consistent with that of the immediate neighborhood. The site is located within a residential neighborhood, characterized by the Garden Park Townhomes condominium development to the north, west, and south. To the east, the project abuts R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned properties. The proposed 447

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 7

PUD zone with an R-3 base zone, allowing for up to seventeen (17) units per acre is appropriate, as it will not only provide opportunities for new housing developments, but also be consistent with the surrounding lower density neighborhood.

Goal LU -4: The City seeks to develop uses that are compatible with one another. The 0.88 -acre site is proposed to be improved with fifteen (15) condominium units, at seventeen ( 17) units per acre, which is within the allowable density of 32 units per acre otherwise allowed under the R -3 base zoning and the MDR General Plan Land Use Designation . The proposed PUD will, however, limit the maximum density to 17 units per acre. The proposed project is within the allowed density of the MDR land use designation and similar in scale to the adjoining residential neighborhood. The proposed design will consist of three-story units, which are allowed by the R-3 base zone. Thus, the project is similar both in land use intensity and physical scale of the adjoining residential neighborhood.

Policy LU -4.1: Locate higher -density residential uses within proximity of commercial uses to encourage pedestrian traffic, and to provide a consumer base for commercial uses. The site is located within a residential neighborhood characterized, with nearby access to Newhope Street and Garden Grove Boulevard. Approval of the proposed Zoning Map Amendment will facilitate the development of a vacant single-family developed property with fifteen (15) condominiums. The construction of the new residential units would increase the local population and add to the consumer base for commercial services within the immediate neighborhood.

2. That the design and improvemen t of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan.

The subject site has a General Plan land use designation of MDR (Medium Density Residential). The applicant is requesting Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT -19298 approval to create a one-lot subdivision for the purpose of developing the site with fifteen (15) for -sale, detached residential condominium units (17 units per acre) . The MDR land use designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes .

The MDR Land Use Designation allows a density up to thirty-two (32) units per acre. Thus, by proposing fi fteen (15) condominium units, the project is consistent with the State Subdivision Map Act, and the General Plan.

3. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed type of development.

The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed by the developer and complies with the spirit and intent of the MDR General Plan land use designation. The proposed 0.88-acre site will consist of fifteen (15) three- story units, which would be allowed under the proposed R-3 base zone, and is 448

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 8

consistent with the General Plan . The residential Planned Unit Development has been designed in a manner that is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. As designed, the site is able to accommodate fifteen (15) units, along with parking, landscaping, private and common recreation areas, setbacks, and building he ight standards. Therefore, the property is sufficient in size to accommodate the proposed development.

4. That the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act have been satisfied.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq., and the CEQA guidelines, 14 California Code of Regulations Sec. 15000 et. seq., an Initial Study was prepared, and it has been determined that the pro posed Project qualifies for a Mitigated Negative Declaration because the proposed Project with implementation of the proposed mitigation measures cannot, or will not, have a significant effect on the environment. A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Prog ram has been prepared and is attached to the Mitigated Negative Declaration listing the mitigation measures to be monitored during project implementation. The Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were prepared and circulated in accordance with CEQA and CEQA's implementing guidelines.

5. That the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of the development.

The subject property has a General Plan land use designation of MDR, which is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, and townhomes.

The R-3 base zone, as proposed under A -040-2024, in conjunction with the existing MDR land use designation, allow a residential density up to thirty-two (32) units per acre. The proposed project will consist of fifteen (15) units which is within that allowable density. The proposed PUD development standards ha ve also been designed to be consistent with the surrounding residential neighborhoods. As designed, the site is able to accommodate fifteen (15) units, along with parking, landscaping, private and common recreation areas, setbacks , and other development standards of the proposed PUD .

Therefore, the property is physically suitable for the proposed density of the development, as allowed under the MDR land us e designation, and the proposed PUD-019-2024 with R-3 base zoning.

6. That the design of the subdivisio n and the proposed improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems.

The design of the residential subdivision and the proposed improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems. Additionally, certain 449

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 9

conditions of approval will be in place to further safeguard public health. The proposed subdivision has been designed to comply with the intent of the MDR General Plan land use designation, and the R -3 (multiple-Family Residential) base zone. City Departments, including the Traffic Division, Water Division, Engineering Division and the Planning Services Division, and the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) have reviewed the proposed development and have applied conditions of approval to minimize potential impacts that th e project may have on the community, including public health.

7. That the design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements will not conflict with easements of record or easements established by court judgment acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision; or, if such easements exist, that alternate easements for access or for use will be provided, and that these will be substantially equivalent to the ones previously acquired by the public.

The design of the residential subdivision and the proposed improvements will not conflict with easements of record, or easements established by court judgment acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision . The project has been designed to avoid development over existing easements.

8. That the design and improvement of the proposed subdivision are suitable for the uses proposed, and the subdivision can be developed in compliance with the applicable zoning regulations.

Under the proposed Amendment No. A -040-2024, the City’s Official Zoning Map will be amended to rezone the project site from R -1 (Single-Family Residential) to residential Planned Unit Development (PUD-019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple -Family Residential) base zone, to facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit project, and to ensure consistency with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation of Medium Density Residential (MDR).

The proposed Zoning Map amendment will facilitate the development of the proposed fifteen (15) unit condominium project. The site’s proposed detached, small-lot subdivision style housing is compatible with the surrounding area, which consists of a mix of multiple-family and single-family residential uses.

Accordingly, the PUD zone with the R-3 base zone is appropriate for the site, as it will be consistent with the variety of residential developments in the immediate area. In addition, the site has access to all necessary public infrastructure to adequately serve the proposed development.

The design and improvement of the subdivision, as proposed under Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 is suitable for the fifteen (15) proposed residential units. The proposed subdivision has been specifically designed to 450

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 10

accommodate the fifteen (15) residential units on the subject property, and to create a one -lot subdivision for the purpo se of selling each unit as a condominium. Therefore, the design and improvement of the proposed subdivision is suitable for the proposed use and the subdivision can be developed in compliance with the MDR land use designation, and the proposed residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone.

9. That the design of the subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities in the subdivision.

To the extent feasible, the project has been designed in accordance with Government Code Section 66473.1, such as to allow for passive or natural heating opportunities in the subdivision design, to encourage the orientation of structures to take advantage of shade and prevailing breezes, to allow solar access for passive heating and opportunities for placement of shade trees and other vegetation for cooling.

10. That the design, density and configuration of the subdivision strikes a balance between the effect of the subdivision on the housing needs of the region and of public service needs that the character of the subdivision is compatible with the design of existing structures.

The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 would create a one- lot subdivision to sell each of the fifteen (15) proposed residential units as a condominiums. The project has been reviewed in relation to the housing needs and goals of the City, and is compatible with the existing developments in the immediate vicinity, including the Garden Park Townhomes . The proposed development will increase the number of residential units, and further the goals of the Housing Element of the General Plan. The proposed subdivision would allow for the sale of each proposed residential unit. This design is similar to the surrounding Garden Park Townhomes development. Moreover, the project complies with the density requirements of the General Plan, as well as the proposed Residential Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) base zone.

11. That the lot sizes of the subdivision are substantially the same as the lot sizes within the general area.

The proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. TT-19298 would create a one- lot subdivision to sell each of the fifteen (15) proposed residential units as a condominiums. The proposed subdivision would allow for the sale of each proposed residential unit. This design is similar to the surrounding Garden Park Townho mes development. Moreover, the project complies with the density requirements of the General Plan, as well as the proposed Residential 451

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 11

Planned Unit Development (PUD -019-2024) zoning with an R -3 (Multiple - Family Residential) base zone.

12. The subject property is not located within a state responsibility area or a very high fire hazard severity zone, the proposed subdivision is served by local fire suppression services, and the proposed subdivision meets applicable design, location, and ingress-egress requirements.

The subject property is not located within a state responsibility area or a very high fire hazard severity zone. The Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) has reviewed the proposed subdivision, and found that the project will be adequately served by local fire suppression services, and the proposed subdivision meets applicable design, location, and ingress -egress requirements. Furthermore, the project has been conditioned to comply with all OCFA requirements relating to fire suppression services, an d emergency access.

13. The discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing sewer system will not result in violation of existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board. The conditions of approval for on and off -site impr ovements will ensure permitted capacity of the public sewer system is not exceeded.

The Water Services Division has reviewed the project, and found that there is sufficient sewer capacity to support the project. So long as the project adheres to the Conditions of Approval, as recommended, the Water Services Division does not anticipate that the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision will result in any violation of California Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements.

VARIANCE

Section 9.12.030.020.C.2 of the Municipal Code requires all residential Planned Unit Developments to provide a minimum lot size of one (1) acre. The subject lot is 0.88 acres in area, which is less than the minimum. Therefore, a Variance is required for the establishment of the PUD zone , and to allow a deviation from the minimum lot size requirement for a residential PUD.

Pursuant Garden Grove Municipal Code Section 9.32.030.D.6, in order to grant a property owner's request for a Variance, the Planning Comm ission must make each of the following five (5) findings:

1. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or to the intended use or development of 452

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 12

the property that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone or neighborhood.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Development. There are exceptional o r extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved that do not apply generally to other similar properties in the immediate vicinity, within the same zone, or other similarly zoned properties throughout the City.

The subject site is surrounded and constrained by previously developed Garden Park Townhomes to the north, south, and west, across Newhope Street. The Garden Park Townhome development was constructed in 1973, under Planned Unit Development No. PUD-102-72. The subject property remained as an R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoned property, developed with a single -family home.

The resulting development of the Garden Park Townhomes created a situation where a single -family property was left in the midst of a multiple -family development. This is an exceptional and extraordinary circumstance wherein the rest of the neighborhood is developed with multiple-family developments, but the subject parcel is zoned for R -1 single-family residential uses. This circumstance has ultimately left the subject property unable to develop multiple-family residences, akin to the Garden Park Townhomes that surround the property, and also pulls access from Newhope Street.

The requested Planned Unit Development will help facilit ate the development of residential units, to be sold as condominiums, similar to the Garden Park Townhomes. The Garden Park Townhomes were approved in 1972, under Planned Unit Development No. PUD -102-72. The Planned Unit Development adopted for the townhomes do not meet the current Municipal Code standards, for amongst other things, setbacks, parking, and required open space.

Therefore, the proposed Planned Unit Development is necessary to establish development standards that are more consistent and com patible with the development standards of the Garden Park Townhome approval in 1972.

The granting of the requested Variance will allow for the establishment of a Planned Unit Development that will allow for the subject parcel to develop in a manner consistent with the surrounding neighborhood.

2. That such Variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, but which is denied to the subject property.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Development. The project site currently has an R -1 (Single- Family Residential) zoning, and an MDR (Medium Density Residential) land use 453

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 13

designation. The MDR land use is implemented through higher density residential zones, such as the R -3 (Multiple-Family Residential) zone. The current R-1 zoning of the property only allows for single-family development.

Adoption of a Planned Unit Development will allow for a multiple -family residential development that is more akin to those implemented by the R -3 zone. Thus, the PUD rectifies an existing condition wherein the subject property is denied develo pment rights that would otherwise be granted to a property within the MDR Land Use Designation.

Within the immediate vicinity of the subject lot is the Garden Park Townhomes.

These townhomes were originally constructed in 1973, and are also implemented under a Planned Unit Development within the MDR Land Use Designation. The requested Variance for minimum PUD acreage would grant the subject property land use entitlements that would be substantially similar to the Garden Park Townhomes. Accordingly, appr oval of the proposed Variance will not set a precedent, and will allow the applicant to enjoy a substantial property right possessed by the Garden Park Townhomes, and other, similar residential Planned Unit Developments.

3. That the granting of a Variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such zone or neighborhood in which the property is located.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residen tial Planned Unit Development.

The Variance will not adversely affect surrounding properties, which are developed with existing residential uses. The existing Garden Park Townhomes to the north, west, and south, and the single -family residential properties to the east will remain unaffected by the granting of the Variance, allowing a residential PUD of less than one acre. Specifically, the PUD allows for a maximum density of residential units (17 units/acre) that is less than the maximum density ordinarily allowed by the MDR Land Use Designation (32 units/acre). Approving the Variance, allowing the PUD, helps implement a potentially less impactful residential development, as proposed, than wh at would otherwise be allowed by the General Plan, and allow for the subject parcel to develop in a manner consistent with the neighborhood.

Also as a part of the project application, the City has conducted a thorough environmental review, under Californi a Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines, and found that any environmental impacts would be less than significant, provided certain mitigation measures are implemented. A discussion of the CEQA process is also found in this report.

The project will be required to comply with all applicable building, and life - safety codes and regulations to ensure that there are no adverse impacts on public health, safety, or welfare. Furthermore, the proposal has been reviewed 454

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 14

by all City departments in order to ens ure compliance with all applicable Municipal Code provisions. Provided the project complies with the Conditions of Approval, the approval of the Variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in such zone or neighborhood in which the property is located.

4. That the granting of such Variance will not adversely affect the City’s General Plan.

The General Plan does not explicitly impose a minimum lot size for a residential Planned Unit Development zone. Therefore, the proposed Variance from the minimum residential Planned Unit Development lot size will not adversely affect the General Plan.

Furthermore, the Medium Density Residential (MDR) General Plan Land Use Designation is intended to create, maintain and enhance residential areas characterized by mostly traditional multi -family apartments, condominiums, townhomes, and single -family small-lot subdivisions. The proposed PUD is consistent with the intent of the MDR Land Use Designation. As proposed, the PUD would facilitate the development of a detached condominium community, at a residential density that is consistent with the scale of the surrounding Garden Park Townhomes and single-family development.

The project site currently has an R -1 (Single-Family Residential) zoning, and an MDR (Medium Density Residential) General Plan Land Use Designation. The MDR designation is implemented thro ugh higher density residential zones, such as the R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) zone. The current R-1 zoning of the property would only allow for single -family development. Adoption of a Planned Unit Development will allow for a multiple -family resid ential development that is more akin to those implemented by the R-3 zone. Thus, the PUD ultimately makes the subj ect property and zoning more in conformance with the General Plan than the existing condition.

The proposed project will be consistent with the spirit and intent of the General Plan, furthering its goals, policies, and implementation programs. The project would also help meet the community’s need for a variety of residential uses in the MDR Land Use Designation. Therefore, the granting of th e requested Variance will not adversely affect the City’s General Plan.

5. That approval of the Variance is subject to such conditions as will assure that it does not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which the subject property is situated.

Approval of this Variance will allow the project to deviate from the minimum one-acre lot size required for the establishment of the requested residential Planned Unit Develop ment. The project site currently has an R -1 (Single- Family Residential) zoning, and an MDR (Medium Density Residential) General 455

Resolution No. 6087-24 Page 15

Plan Land Use Designation. The MDR designation is implemented through higher density residential zones, such as the R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) zone. The current R-1 zoning of the property would only allow for single-family development. Adoption of a Planned Unit Development will allow for a multiple-family residential development that is more akin to those implemented by the R-3 zone. The proposed density of the project (17 units per acre) is within the maximum density allowed under the MDR land use designation (maximum 32 units per acre).

The surrounding Garden Park Townhome development was approved in 1972, and was es tablished through its own Planned Unit Development No.

PUD-102-72. The proposed Planned Unit Development, subject to the approval of the subject Variance, will establish development standards, similar to, and consistent with the existing Garde n Park Townhome Development.

This includes, but is not limited to, standards for maximum residential densities, building heights, setbacks, parking, and common and private open spaces. These development standards, with the R-3 base zone, are based on the development standards of the City’s small-lot subdivision ordinance. The conditions established by these proposed development standards help ensure a development similar to the surrounding neighborhood.

Thus, there is no special privilege granted. The approval of the Variance does not grant any development opportunities inconsistent with those afforded to other properties in the neighborhood, namely the Garden Park Townhomes.

Furthermore, so long as the Conditions of Approval are adhered to for the life of the project, the Variance will not grant any special privileges.

INCORPORATION OF FACTS AND FINDINGS SET FORTH IN THE STAFF REPORT

In addition to the foregoing, the Planning Commission incorporates herein by this reference the facts and findings set forth in the staff report and in Resolution Nos. 6086-24 and 6088-24.
