TOPIC: Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project Cooperative Agreement

AGENDA TITLE
Cooperative Agreement with the Cities of Brea, Placentia, Anaheim, and Orange for the Kraemer Boulevard, Glassell Street, Grand Avenue Corridor Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (Project No. 25-6705) (Non-General Fund)

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve an appropriation adjustment recognizing $760,855 in matching funding from the Cities of Brea, Placentia, Anaheim, and Orange, into the Public Works Measure M-Street Construction, Expense Reimbursement revenue account (03217002-57000) and appropriate the same amount into the Measure M-Street Construction, Improvements Other Than Building expenditure account (03217663- 66220) for the Kraemer Boulevard, Glassell Street, Grand Avenue Corridor Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project. (Requires five affirmative votes.)

2. Approve an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program to include city match reimbursement funding in the amount of $760,855 for the Kraemer Boulevard, Glassell Street, Grand Avenue Corridor Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (Project No. 25-6705).

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a Cooperative Agreement with the Cities of Brea, Placentia, Anaheim, and Orange, which identifies each city’s roles and responsibilities to implement the Kraemer Boulevard, Glassell Street, Grand Avenue Corridor Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project for a term beginning upon full approval of the agreement by all parties and effective until December 31, 2030, with an option for extension (Agreement No. A-2025-XXX).

GOVERNMENT §84308 CODE APPLIES: No

DISCUSSION
On November 21, 2023, the City Council authorized staff to submit a competitive grant application for the Kraemer Boulevard, Glassell Street, Grand Avenue Corridor Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (Project) with participating agencies for the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) Measure M2 Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program. On May 13, 2024, the OCTA Board of Directors approved City Council 18 – 1 4/1/2025
Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project Cooperative Agreement April 1, 2025

Page 2 ends

awarding the City of Santa Ana and partnering agencies $4,568,526 for the Project which requires the City and partnering agencies to provide matching funds of 20% for the project in the amount of $1,142,132, of which the City of Santa Ana’s share is $381,277.

The match commitments from the other four participating cities will provide a combined total of $760,855. The FY 2024 Call for Projects Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Project P Supplementation Application (Exhibit 1) shows the improvements for each partnering agency along with associated cost, grant funding, and agency matching funds. The City of Santa Ana’s share of the matching funds is $381,277, of which $351,277 is cash and $30,000 is in-kind staff support. The City’s staff time and resources spent in support of the project will be counted as an “in-kind” contribution, meaning non-monetary costs of service, and will count towards the total agency match. The Fairshare contribution from each city is proportioned to the amount of improvements within their segment of the street, of which Santa Ana has the highest amount of improvements.

The City Council authorized an appropriation adjustment recognizing the Measure M2 grant funding from OCTA on October 15, 2024. As a follow up action and approval of the above recommended actions, this would allow the City to receive the necessary matching funds from the partnering agencies to complete the project funding. The City of Santa Ana elected to lead the project on behalf of the partnering agencies due the significance of this corridor in the Santa Ana traffic signal synchronization network and the majority of the traffic signals in the corridor are owned and operated by City of Santa Ana. While the City of Santa Ana will act as lead agency for the project, a cooperative agreement is necessary to identify the roles and responsibilities of each participating agency. The partnering agencies will work collaboratively with the City to design and construct the Project. This includes designating lead staff to act as liaisons for the Project in the coordination with contractors, consultants, construction inspection, and traffic signal timing implementation.

The cooperative agreement would provide for inter-jurisdictional traffic signal synchronization and improvements along the corridor traversing Santa Ana, Brea, Placentia, Anaheim, Orange, and Caltrans (Exhibit 2). This corridor serves a wide range of land uses with very high morning and evening peak traffic volumes, including over 40,000 vehicles per day in the City of Santa Ana. The proposed traffic signal synchronization and improvements will enhance traffic flow along the corridor by reducing travel time, stops, delays, and traffic congestion in the City and the region.

These improvements align with the Cities’ adopted Local Signal Synchronization Plan which strives to relieve traffic congestion on the arterial roadways and to work cooperatively with local agencies, Caltrans, and OCTA to improve the flow of traffic across agency boundaries.

SECTION 2: REGIONAL SIGNIFICANCE
Explain why this project is regionally significant:

The Kraemer Boulevard/ Glassell Street/ Grand Avenue corridor is a reinvigorated project originally performed and funded by M2 RTSSP in FY 2013/2014. The Kraemer Boulevard/ Glassell Street/ Grand Avenue corridor extends 15.14 miles from Lambert Road in the City of Brea to Dyer Road in the City of Santa Ana. The corridor encompasses 61 signalized intersections controlled by the Cities of Brea, Placentia, Anaheim, Orange, Santa Ana and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Caltrans is a participating agency in the project and the participating Cities are committed to executing a cooperative agreement with Caltrans for the implementation of optimized signal timing at the Caltrans intersections.

Kraemer Boulevard/ Glassell Street/ Grand Avenue corridor is currently classified as a Major Arterial in the Cities of Brea, Placentia, Anaheim and Santa Ana and as a Primary Arterial in the City of Orange. The corridor is also designated as part of a Priority Corridor Network by the Traffic Signal Synchronization Master Plan. The corridor carries traffic volumes ranging from 13,000 to 21,000 in Cities of Brea and Placentia; up to approximately 46,000 in City of Anaheim, down to approximately 8,000 in Old Towne Orange, to over 40,000 vehicles daily in Santa Ana.

Kraemer Boulevard/ Glassell Street/ Grand Avenue corridor stretches from the northern County limits to the center of Orange County encompassing a wide range of land uses. At the northern limit in City of Brea, the arterial primarily serves a mix of residential, retail and large commercial including Birch Hills Mall and biomedical manufacturing company Beckman Coulter. This area experiences high morning and evening peak traffic volumes that require a well-synchronized network to meet the peak demand. In City of Placentia, the corridor primarily serves residential, small retail and schools including Tri-City Park and nearby Valencia High School. This area experiences moderately high morning and evening peak traffic volumes and requires a well balanced traffic signal system that serves both daily vehicle commuters and local pedestrian and bike users. In City of Anaheim, the corridor primarily serves large industrial and commercial businesses and cuts through the Anaheim Canyon Business District. This area is being reimagined by the City of Anaheim and looks to create a business environment attractive to a wide variety of industries while encouraging sustainable development. This area sees the highest traffic volume of the corridor and is adjacent to the Caltrans SR-91 Freeway which requires a well sychronized traffic signal system that accounts for high volume of vehicle and large trucks traffic. In the City of Orange, the corridor serves a mix of residential, small business, schools and historic landmarks including Chapman University and Old Towne Orange. This area experiences lower traffic volume but requires special signal timing and active transportation elements to efficiently accommodate the mix of vehicle, pedestrians and bicycles. At the southern limit in City of Santa Ana, the corridor serves a mix of residential, schools, and large manufacturing and commercial businesses including Behr Paint Company and several Orange County government facilities. This area sees some of the highest traffic volumes and demands a well-synchronized network to meet the directional and oversaturated traffic demand.

SECTION 3: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF REQUIRED TASKS
a. PROJECT TASKS
By checking this box, the Applicant Agency, on behalf of all the participating agencies, agree to the following tasks:

Primary Implementation (PI) Phase, lasting approximately one year shall include the following:

Task 1: Project Management - PI Phase
This task is ongoing throughout the duration of the PI Phase of the project. It includes day-to-day project management, such as meetings, progress reports, tracking of schedules, tracking of cost by agency, invoicing, and overall administration of the PROJECT.

The following list is a minimum of what is required of this task:
• A running record of project cost broken down by Participating Agency shall be part of this task.

This information will be used by the Lead Agency to bill Participating Agencies for their respective project match.
• A running record of all scope changes and/or any deviations from the final approved application.

This information will be used by the Lead Agency to request for Scope Changes at the Semi-Annual Review (SAR).

Task 2: Data Collection and Field Review
All agencies on this application will opt out of the Data Collection portion of Task 2 due to participation in the Countywide Baseline Project. A Before/After study will be completed. However, Data Collection will be be conducted at the four (4) Caltrans intersections and utilized to develop Signal Timing Optimization and Implementation. These efforts will be closely coordinated with the Countywide Baseline Project. Cities of Brea, Anaheim and Orange are committed to excecuting a Cooperative Agreeement with Caltrans for the Data Collection efforts. Funding for Data Collection at the Caltrans intersection is included in the respective Agency Task 2.

This task shall include collecting seven-day, 24-hour machine counts, including vehicle and bike classifications, along each 1-mile segment of the corridor(s). The project shall also produce weekday and weekend peak period intersection turning movement (ITM) counts at every signalized intersection, including pedestrian and bicycle counts. ITM counts shall be conducted for two hours of each weekday peak period (AM, mid-day, and PM) and a single four-hour Saturday mid-day peak period. All counts shall be summarized in Microsoft Excel format. All data shall adhere to the CTFP Guidelines for data compatibility.

Data collection also includes field review of before and after conditions. The floating car method shall be utilized with software and GPS for the ’Before’ Study to fine-tune the corridor operation and verify integrity of system intersection clocks. Synchronized Video shall be used to compare actual conditions to anticipated conditions dictated by the time-space diagram so that any anomalies may be corrected prior to the ’After’ studies task.

Field review conducted as part of this task will document the existing conditions for all signal timing, infrastructure, and system improvements on the project. This includes pre-construction pictures for comparison during the post-construction walkthrough, should there be any questions or discrepancies noted by any parties. Data Collection and Field Review Memos shall be provided to all participating agencies.
x to indicate all agencies on this application will opt out of the data collection portion of Task 2 due to participation in the Countywide Baseline Project. A Before/After study is still required. A memorandum shall be submitted to indicate completion of this task.

The report shall document all planned and programmed improvements on the study corridor as well as recommendations based on PI tasks for further infrastructure improvements that would likely improve the corridor signal coordination project results. The report shall be completed in accordance with the current CTFP Guidelines.

Finally, the report shall provide recommendations with cost and benefit estimates for future improvements to traffic signal infrastructure (signal controllers, vehicle detection, communications, etc.), intersection capacity (appropriate signal phasing, lane geometrics, and alleviation of physical bottlenecks that curtail arterial capacity), and traffic management strategies. These proposed improvements should be useful in determining future enhancements to the corridor.

A Project Summary Sheet, one sheet front and back, that describes the project and improvements gained shall be provided to OCTA. This sheet will be used by OCTA and Participating Agencies to present to the Board and elected officials.

By checking this box, the following additional PI task(s) and/or exceptions will be made:

ONGOING OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE (O&M) PHASE, lasting approximately two (2) years, shall include the following:

Task 6: Project Management - O&M Phase
This task includes day-to-day project management, such as meetings, tracking of schedules, invoicing, and overall administration of the project. This task shall continue in full force as specified in the Primary Implementation Phase.

Task 7: Continuing Support
During this 24-month period, the signal timing along the corridor/route/grid shall be observed and finetuned. This task shall also include the monitoring, maintaining, and repair of detection and communication implemented as part of this project. Monthly drives shall be conducted along the length of the project during all designated corridor synchronization timing plan hours of operation in order to verify that the synchronization timing is working as designed and complete any necessary adjustments. This is followed by a monthly memorandum summarizing the status and trends of the corridor based on the runs conducted. Trip logs for the month shall be provided to the Participating Agencies. The memorandum shall include all additional tasks requested and completed during that month. Performance metrics comparisons from ATSPM, where available, shall also be included in the memorandum.

TOPIC: Pavement Management Program Update

AGENDA TITLE
Agreement with Bucknam Infrastructure Group, Inc. for the Measure M2 Required Pavement Management Program Update (Project No. 25-6898) (Non-General Fund)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Bucknam Infrastructure Group, Inc. for Pavement Management Program Update services, for an amount not to exceed $135,000, which includes the base amount of $119,395 and contingency of $15,605, for a term beginning April 1, 2025 and expiring March 31, 2028, with provisions for two, one-year extensions (Agreement No. A-2025-XXX).

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes

DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency’s (PWA) Engineering Division is responsible for the administration and oversight of all Capital Improvement Projects in the City. The City’s Pavement Management Program (PMP) is an essential tool in determining the condition, expected life, recommended improvements, and associated costs of the City’s pavement assets. The program enables the City to prioritize pavement rehabilitation projects where they are most cost effective and appropriately scheduled.

Additionally, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) requires that Cities update their PMPs every two years in order to remain eligible for Measure M2 funding programs. The City last completed a PMP submission accepted by OCTA in May 2024 (Exhibit 1).

The City’s roadways consist of approximately 450 miles of paved streets and alleys.

The roadways are divided into three networks: Arterials, Local Streets, and Alleys.

Network Approximate Miles
Arterials 105
Local Streets 317
Alleys 28
Total 450

Pavement Management Program Update
April 1, 2025

Page 2 ends

A Pavement Management Program must be periodically updated with current street pavement assessment data to be effective and compliant. City streets were last assessed and inventoried in 2023/2024 for the 2024 PMP update. A significant portion of the proposed scope of work involves in-field, individual street assessments performed by skilled technicians and engineers. Once this data is collected, the consultant will analyze the data and prepare a report and recommendations for future street improvements. The proposed services also include mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS) support to integrate into the City's current mapping systems.

The mapping and GIS will be compatible across all other City infrastructure, while also supporting internal- and public-facing dashboards and required reporting mechanisms.

When complete, the refreshed PMP will be utilized by staff to recommend street improvement projects for City Council consideration via the annual budget and capital improvement program adoption process. Additionally, the City will be able to produce reports for submission to OCTA to ensure continued eligibility with Measure M2. The City’s biennial PMP submittal is due by June 2026. Staff recommends retaining the consultant through 2028 in order to revise the Pavement Management analysis on an as-needed basis as may be requested by OCTA or by State and Federal grant funding agencies, in order to assure the City maintains maximum funding eligibility.

PWA released a Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 24-133 on November 26, 2024, by which it sought a qualified consultant to perform pavement condition surveys and budgetary analysis to produce the City’s PMP in compliance with the upcoming 2026 grant requirement.

The RFP was advertised on the City’s online procurement management and publication system, with proposals due on December 19, 2024. A summary of vendor participation is as follows:
2,280 Vendors notified
97 Santa Ana vendors notified
46 Vendors downloaded the bid packet
3 Bids Received
0 Bids received from Santa Ana vendors
In order to be deemed compliant by OCTA’s Countywide Pavement Management Plan Guidelines (Exhibit 2), the selection of a consultant award requires at least one inspector from a consultant firm to be prequalified by OCTA for a submitted Pavement Management Plan. This ensures adherence to proper procedures and ensures the results are within acceptable variability ranges. Thus, three proposals were received and evaluated by a selection committee. Ninety-seven Santa Ana vendors were notified and zero bids were received by Santa Ana vendors. Based on criteria outlined in the RFP, the following summarizes the three responding firms and their ranking:

TOPIC: Water Resources Division Construction Services Section

AGENDA TITLE
Fiscal Year 2024-25 Create a Construction Services Section and Add 13 Full-Time Positions (Non-General Fund)

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution to amend the current fiscal year 2024-25 annual budget to add 13 fulltime positions and create a Construction Services Section in the Public Works Agency RESOLUTION NO. 2025-XXX entitled A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA TO AMEND THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR 2024-25

ANNUAL BUDGET TO ADD FULL-TIME POSITIONS IN THE PUBLIC WORKS AGENCY
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No

DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency (PWA) Water Resources Division (Water Resources) oversees the daily operations and maintenance of the City’s water and sanitary sewer systems. The water system is comprised of approximately 480 miles of water main, 21 groundwater wells, seven pump stations, 10 reservoirs with a storage capacity of 49 million gallons, four pressure regulating stations, and seven connection points to the Metropolitan Water District. The system has an average daily demand of 30 million gallons from its roughly 45,500 metered service connections.

Water Resources is composed of six operating sections; five in the Water Enterprise (Fund 060) and one in the Sanitary Sewer Enterprise (Fund 056). These sections are Water Administration & Engineering, Water Utility Production & Supply, Water System Maintenance, Water Meter Services, Water Quality, and Sanitary Sewer Service. While the breadth of work being performed by Water Resources is extensive, staff proposes the addition of a new operational section which will focus primarily on capital improvements and related services for both the Water and Sewer Enterprises, such as installation of pipeline, fire hydrants, water valves, large water meter services, and backflow devices.

City Council 20 – 1 4/1/2025

The City has primarily relied on outside contractors to perform this work because these services are not currently a part of Water Resources’ regular operations. However, bringing these activities in-house will streamline the construction process by removing the contract procurement process of advertising, bidding, and awarding of a project. The efficiencies gained with a dedicated infrastructure construction crew will result in a longterm cost savings and provide the City with an agile workforce capable of performing a greater scope of services, such as city-wide initiatives and emerging priorities. The utilization of an in-house workforce further reflects the City’s commitment to serving the community with quality and accountability.

Proposed Team
Position Title Quantity Description
Water Services Worker 10
Entry-level classification for operations crews
and employees performing heavy, routine,
manual labor for public works projects
Equipment Operator- Water
Services 3
Performs skilled work in the operation of
various types of heavy equipment utilized in
the performance of public works projects
Total 13
The team will have the materials and equipment necessary to, among other functions, specialize in:
• Water pipeline installation – New pipeline construction for water distribution and transmission.
• Pipeline Rehabilitation and Replacement – Repairing and replacing deteriorating assets.
• Leak Detection and Inspection – Ensuring system integrity with advanced testing methods.
• Emergency Repairs and Maintenance – 24/7 Response for pipeline failures. • Wastewater Pipeline Installation – Complementary infrastructure service.

Additionally, the establishment of this new team will allow resources to be readily available to address immediate needs within the public right of way. Based on City needs, some areas the team would work on include sidewalk and pothole repairs, street improvements, and small construction projects. Staff will establish a process to ensure appropriate funding is allocated when the team works on non-water and non-sewer related activities, by which the time and materials will be charged to the appropriate fund to ensure compliance with funding regulations.

Staff recommends the approval of the recommended action in order to enhance operational efficiency, achieve long-term cost savings, and ensure a responsive and City Council 20 – 2 4/1/2025
Water Resources Division Construction Section

agile workforce capable of addressing both planned capital improvements and emerging infrastructure needs (Exhibit 1).

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.

FISCAL IMPACT
To ensure the construction crew operates within existing resources, a funding approach has been developed that aligns costs with the type of work being performed. This approach allows the City to maximize efficiency while minimizing reliance on outside contractors.

Proposed Funding Approach:
• Water Fund: No additional budget impact, as water-related projects are already funded in the current budget and will continue to be included in future budget proposals. The construction crew will charge their time to these projects, reducing reliance on outside contractors while staying within the existing budget. • Other Funding Sources: When not working on water-related projects, the construction crew will charge their time to other funding sources, such as the General Fund, based on the work performed. In return, Public Works will use less of the contract services budget, ensuring they remain within the existing budget.

This approach ensures a net-zero budget impact. Additionally, the March 4th Mid-Year Budget Update staff report included a request for one-time funding from the Water and Sewer Funds to purchase equipment needed to support the crew in performing this work efficiently.

TOPIC: Omnibus Amendments to Chapter 2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code

AGENDA TITLE
Omnibus Amendments to Chapter 2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code Including Meeting Frequency for the Personnel Board, Contracting Authority for the City Clerk and City Attorney, and Relying on State Law Regarding Campaign Contributions Effect on Proceedings Involving a License, Permit or other Entitlement for Use

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the First Reading of an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Santa Ana amending Chapter 2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code as to Section 2-328 Regarding Meetings; Chairperson and Recording Secretary of Appointive Boards and Commissions, Adding Section 2-331.5 Regarding Meetings of the Personnel Board, Amending the Title of Article VII of Chapter 2, Amending Section 2-748 Regarding City Manager Contracting Authority, Adding Section 2-748 Regarding City Attorney and City Clerk Contracting Authority, and Repealing Section 2-107 Regarding Prohibited Campaign Contributions.

ORDINANCE NO. NS-XXXX entitled AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AMENDING CHAPTER 2 OF THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE AS TO SECTION 2-328 REGARDING MEETINGS; CHAIRPERSON AND

RECORDING SECRETARY OF APPOINTIVE BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS, ADDING SECTION 2-331.5 ENTITLED MEETINGS, AMENDING THE TITLE OF ARTICLE VII OF CHPATER 2, AMENDING SECTION 2-748 REGARDING CITY MANAGER CONTRACTING AUTHORITY, ADDING SECTION 2-749 REGARDING CITY

ATTORNEY AND CITY CLERK CONTRACTING AUTHORITY, AND REPEALING SECTION 2-107 REGARDING PROHIBITED CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No

DISCUSSION
Section 2-328-Meetings; chairperson; recording secretary Section 2-328 is part of Division 2 “Appointive Boards and Commissions” in Article IV “Officers, Departments, Boards and Commissions” in Chapter 2 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”). Division 2 contains sections that are applicable to all City City Council 21 – 1 4/1/2025
Omnibus Ordinance Amendment
April 1, 2025

Page 2 ends

Boards and Commissions. Section 2-328 addresses meetings, election of a chairperson and recording secretaries for all Boards and Commissions but also contains a provision specific to the Personnel Board which states that the Board will meet monthly provided that there is business on the agenda to come before it. This provision is being deleted and a new code section regarding meetings for the Personnel Board will be added to Division 3 which contains municipal code provisions specific to that Board.

Section 2-331.5- [New] Meetings
The City of Santa Ana Personnel Board was established by the City of Santa Ana Charter and Municipal Code. One of the Board's principal duties is to provide a final administrative review of disciplinary matters involving permanent employees of the City of Santa Ana who have been demoted, suspended, or dismissed/terminated from employment. The Board's appellate review is a full evidentiary hearing wherein the Board applies its independent judgment to the law, facts, and arguments presented in each case.

The duration of individual hearings varies. These proceedings include pre-hearing procedures, the evidentiary hearing, and Board deliberation and decision proceedings.

Hearings are conducted in the evenings and require the coordination of many schedules due to the large number of individuals involved, including the employee/appellant and their representative(s), the City representative(s), City staff, the seven (7) Board members, Board counsel, witnesses, and a court reporter. Hearings take at a minimum twenty to twenty-five (20-25) calendar days to conclude; see attached Sample Timeline of an Appeal to the Personnel Board (Exhibit 1). However, the average case is heard over ten (10) – fourteen (14) evenings which will take eight (8) to twelve (12) months due to scheduling coordination.

The ordinance addition would change the Personnel Board meetings from a minimum of one meeting a month (assuming there is business before the Board) to a minimum of two meetings a month, on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month, provided the Board has business. This will facilitate advance scheduling and a more efficient execution of the Personnel Board appeals by establishing a minimum of two (2) evenings per month available for hearing appeals. The Personnel Board has met on this issue and identified that they prefer the second and fourth Thursdays of the month as Regular Meeting dates. Establishing the Regular Meeting dates does not preclude the Personnel Board from meeting more often while hearing an appeal.

Sections 2-748 and 2-749 [New] City Manager, City Clerk, and City Attorney Contracting Authority
On November 5, 2024, the voters approved a Charter amendment to provide contracting authority to the City Clerk and City Attorney based upon the purchasing policies and dollar limitations established for the City Manager or at such other amounts adopted by the City Council. A municipal code amendment is proposed to implement such contracting City Council 21 – 2 4/1/2025

authority and to make clarifying revisions to provisions of the code that address the City Manager’s contracting authority.

Section 2-107 Prohibited Campaign Contributions
Effective January 1, 2023, SB 1439 removed the exception for local government agencies relating to the Levine Act provisions of the Political Reform Act of 1974. It was thereafter amended by SB 1243 effective January 1, 2025 increasing the threshold of campaign contributions from $250 to $500 and making additional amendments related to contract exclusions, an extended cure period, agent contributions and the definition of a “participant.” The Levine Act prohibits an officer of an agency from accepting, soliciting, or directing a contribution of more than $500 from any party, participant, or a party or participant’s agent, while a proceeding involving a license, permit, or other entitlement for use is pending before the agency and for 12 months following the date a final decision is made in the proceeding.

SAMC Section 2-107 provides in pertinent part that “[n]o councilmember or any campaign committee controlled by the councilmember shall solicit or accept any campaign contribution or loan of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) or more from any person for a period of three (3) months following the date a final decision is rendered in any proceeding before the council involving a license, permit, or other entitlement, if the councilmember knows or has reason to know that the person had a financial interest in the proceeding.” The Levine Act covers the same conduct as set forth in SAMC Section 2-107 over a longer period of time but with a $500 threshold rather than the $250 threshold of the SAMC. Section 2-107 only covers three months following the date of a final decision while the Levine Act covers twelve months after the date of the final decision. It is proposed to repeal Section 2-107 and to default to the Levine Act under state law.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.

FISCAL IMPACT
Sections 2-328 and 2-331.5- Frequency of Personnel Board Meetings The estimated cost of the additional meeting per month is $16,200 from the General Fund for the remainder of FY 24/25. The estimated cost of the additional meeting per month totals $64,800 from the General Fund for FY 25/26. These funds are already budgeted for in the Human Resources General Fund account in the current fiscal year. The proposed FY25/26 budget will include sufficient recurring allocations for two meetings per month.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On April 16, 2024, the City Council adopted a 45-day moratorium on the approval, commencement, establishment, relocation, or expansion of industrial uses within the Transit Zoning Code/Specific Development (SD) No. 84 Zoning District through adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063. The purpose of the moratorium was to immediately offer protection of public health, safety, and welfare from industrial uses significantly causing pollution burden to adjacent residential neighborhoods within the SD84 Zoning District. On May 7, 2024, the City Council issued a report to the public, pursuant to Section 65858(d) of the California Government Code, describing the City’s measures to alleviate conditions that led to the adoption of the moratorium. On May 21, 2024, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-3064 to extend the moratorium for an additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days pursuant to the Government Code as necessary to provide sufficient time for staff to continue with data tracking and reporting, research appropriate regulations, and coordinate with outside regulatory agencies and City departments to determine whether further, permanent action is necessary and to generate recommendations to the Planning Commission and City Council.

Based upon City Council direction, and the research and analysis of the issues herein, staff has prepared Zoning Ordinance Amendment (ZOA) No. 2024-02 proposing to amend certain sections of Chapter 41 (Zoning) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC), Article XIX. The Transit Zoning Code, Specific Development (SD) No. 84 zoning district.

The ZOA proposes amendments that would modify the list of land uses and permit types, including the deletion of industrial land uses; amend nonconforming regulations, including the addition of an amortization process/termination of use process; amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses; and delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps. A second ordinance, Amendment Application (AA) No. 2024-03, proposes to delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the SD-84 zoning district boundary as designated on the City of Santa Ana Zoning Map.

DISCUSSION
The Transit Zoning Code/Specific Development No. 84
The SD-84 zoning district, also known as the Transit Zoning Code (TZC), is located in the central urban core of the City and comprises over 100 blocks and 450 acres. The TZC includes the Civic Center, Downtown, and the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, which are among the City’s most historic in age and as established residential communities. The TZC is generally bounded by First Street, Flower Street, Civic Center Drive, Grand Avenue, and the Santa Ana (I-5) Freeway. Prior to the implementation of the TZC, the area consisted of a wide range of civic, commercial, industrial, and residential land uses regulated by varying zoning districts.

In June 2010, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-2804, creating the TZC, whose purpose was to establish a transit-supportive, pedestrian-oriented development framework to support the addition of new transit infrastructure; preserve and reinforce the existing character and pedestrian nature of the City by strengthening urban form through improved development and design standards; encourage alternative modes of transportation; provide for a range of housing options; and allow for the reuse of existing structures. In July 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-2970, amending the TZC to modify certain design criteria regulating height, massing, open space location, driveway standards, lot dimensions, and parking alternatives. The amendment did not include changes to land uses or permit types within the TZC.

When originally adopted, the TZC provided new zoning for all properties contained within its boundary. However, some properties with existing M1 and M2 zoning and/or existing industrial businesses, also received an overlay district designation which allowed for the continuation of industrial land uses on those properties. The development of mixed-use on these properties consistent with the new zoning they received as part of the TZC adoption is at the discretion of the property owner. In support of the TZC, the City Council also approved a General Plan amendment, establishing numerous mixed-use General Plan land use designations for the entirety of the TZC. However, due to the continued City Council 22 – 3 4/1/2025
ZOA No. 2024-02 & AA No. 2024-03 (Transit Zoning Code Amendments) April 1, 2025

Page 4 ends

application of the industrial overlay zones within the TZC, the implementation of the new General Plan land use designations immediately resulted in zoning inconsistencies and land use conflicts with the new General Plan.

Since establishment of the TZC, and specifically in the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, industrial uses have remained, changed ownership, undergone expansions or intensifications, and have continued to create numerous land use conflicts and disturbances that affect surrounding residential communities. Specifically, in the Logan neighborhood alone, these land uses create quality of life, health and safety, and other trespass issues for residential properties that often directly abut these industrial land uses. These issues include odors, dust, traffic, noise, vibrations, and other documented impacts that have taken place for nearly a decade and a half despite the change to the new General Plan land use designations.

Historically Disadvantaged Communities and Senate Bill (SB) 1000 Prior to the adoption of the TZC, the City permitted industrial uses within the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods in close proximity to sensitive land uses such as residences and schools. The Logan neighborhood represents one of Orange County’s oldest barrios, established as early as 1886, and was one of the few areas where Mexicans and those of Mexican descent could purchase land due to racially restrictive covenants during the first half of the 20th century. Further, as a neighborhood, the area was established before the modern practice of separating or regulating impactful land uses, also known as zoning. The Logan neighborhood itself was largely settled by 1900, before the practice of zoning was enshrined by Village of Euclid v. Ambler Realty Co. in 1926. By that time, the neighborhood contained a mix of residential, industrial, commercial, and related land uses, in some cases side-by-side, with issues further exacerbated by rail lines, fuel storage depots, and the construction of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) between 1947 and 1956.

Comprehensive data analysis and mapping tools generated by the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) and California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA), the Center for Diseases Control/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (CDC/ATSDR), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and California Healthy Places Index (HPI) reveal concerning information regarding environmental conditions impacting residents in the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods. Recent CalEnviroScreen 4.0 data confirms that these neighborhoods rank at 90% or above among California’s most pollution-burdened communities, with Environmental Justice (EJ) maps showing higher exposure to Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5, Air Toxics Cancer Risk, Hazardous Waste Proximity, Diesel Particulate Matter, and Toxic Releases to Air. This information is included as Exhibit 4 to this staff report. These multiple sources of environmental exposure and pollution burden communities of color, including the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, present an alarming set of challenges that affect residents’ quality of life and life expectancy with continued heavy industrial uses nearby.

Senate Bill (SB) 1000 went into effect in 2016, requiring local governments to address pollution and other hazards that disproportionately impact low-income and communities of color within their jurisdiction to proactively plan for and address environmental concerns when developing and updating components of the General Plan. The City and community worked to ensure that the new General Plan included SB 1000 requirements of addressing EJ through facilitating transparency and public engagement in the planning and decision-making processes, reducing harmful pollutants and the associated health risks in disadvantaged communities, and promoting equitable access to health-inducing benefits such as healthy housing options. Of note, the City’s new General Plan mixeduse land use designations in the TZC area were largely left intact, including those in the Lacy and Logan neighborhoods, when the General Plan Update was adopted in 2022.

Environmental Justice/Disadvantaged Communities (DACs) Profile: Logan and Lacy Neighborhood Impacts
For the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, incompatible land uses allowed from past zoning decisions, including the industrial overlay zones, have perpetuated the practices of locating industrial uses or other noxious and unwanted uses near communities of color.

The Logan and Lacy neighborhoods have a population of 5,907 within 1,564 households, a median household income of $56,864, average household size of nearly four persons, median age 27 years, and per-capita income of $23,495. Seventy-four percent are renteroccupied units based on demographic forecasts for 2023. Nearly 25% of the population is under 14 years of age, and 14% are 55 years of age and older. Nearly 3% of the population attended up to 12th grade with no diploma, over 31% are high school graduates, and nearly 97% of the working population over 16 years of age are employed.1 This data illustrates that the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods are within the second and third highest scored census tracts in Santa Ana, each with a composite score of 90% or greater, ranking in the 90th percentile or greater of census tracts in the State, and identified as “disadvantaged communities” by the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) in its CalEnviroScreen model. Failure to address ongoing irreconcilable land use conflicts that are the target of this proposed ordinance will further exacerbate the ongoing demographic and environmental justice challenges that these two neighborhoods within the TZC have grappled with since their founding.

Code Enforcement and Immediate Ongoing Issues
In the past 12 months, the Code Enforcement Division conducted investigations at over 35 commercial and industrial properties within the TZC. Currently, the City’s Code Enforcement Division has 21 active open cases that have been issued Notices of 1 ESRI Community Analyst summary data, which utilizes U.S. Census Bureau sources (2017-2021 American Community Survey & 2020 Decennial Census Data), enhanced by ESRI’s forecasts and aggregations, covering demographics like population, income, age, and employment.

Violation and administrative citations for the following types of violations: illegal storage, land use, zoning, property and landscape maintenance, unpermitted work, business license, and certificate of occupancy. These violations include issues of odors, dust, traffic, noise, vibrations, and other documented impacts. This activity demonstrates the City’s direct involvement in overseeing these businesses to mitigate potential environmental and public health risks.

Since June 2023, the TZC communities have experienced a marked increase in impacts stemming from the irreconcilable industrial and residential land use conflicts in the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods. Residents in the TZC have voiced and emailed complaints and public health concerns to City staff regarding emitted contaminants and zoning violations from industrial businesses in the neighborhoods. Concerns that range from air pollution and smoke, toxic release exposures, idling trucks on residential streets, lead exposure, illegal storage, unpermitted uses, loud noise at night, and other property maintenance pose an immediate public health threat that is straining public resources to continuously investigate and address these matters. Specifically, a fire incident at a crematory located in the neighborhood alarmed neighbors at 9:18 p.m. on August 29, 2023. Residents shared with City officials’ video of high flames escaping the stack on the rooftop, screeching noise that continued nonstop for ten minutes, and what was described as a foul odor attributed to the fire. City staff followed up with external regulatory agencies issuing permits to operate this facility, and quickly, staff observed the limitations from regulatory agencies and their compartmentalized processes to investigate and act on enforcement measures. On August 9, 2024, the City received a complaint with photos of the same crematory in which the complainant observed bodies stored in a container outside the facility. A City code enforcement inspector issued an abatement notice that same day; the bodies and container were removed and the case was closed on August 13, 2024 by code enforcement staff. Other recent incidents include a large fire at an openair industrial recycling facility at 1035 E. Fourth Street on March 23, 2025 that resulted in contaminated effluent from water used in fire-fighting efforts draining into local gutters.

Since 2022, the City has enhanced community services by restructuring its Planning Division to contain a Neighborhood Initiatives and Environmental Services (NIES) section, which oversees, among other functions, environmental justice efforts in Santa Ana and regional coordination to address such issues. Staff encountered difficulty in achieving desired enforcement outcomes with external regulatory agencies such as South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), California Department of Consumer Affairs Cemetery and Funeral Bureau (CFB), and Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) with several heavy industrial business operators in the TZC. This is supported through internal correspondence and phone conversations with staff from these agencies to understand their investigation and compliance processes. To address issues of industrial operators, including recycling and waste processing facilities near schools and residential areas, the City adopted new regulations such as a Noxious Uses Ordinance (Ordinance No. NS3044, adopted June 20, 2023) to include a notification requirement to the City by the property owner to obtain a permit from a regulatory public agency; a requirement of a 1,000 linear foot distance buffer measured from the outermost boundary of the subject property; and a conditional use permit requirement when businesses require a permit City Council 22 – 6 4/1/2025

from a regulatory public agency to handle, store, emit, or discharge particulate materials, exhaust emissions, or regulated compounds, or chemicals near a public park, school (K12), or property zoned for residential purposes.

City staff have also researched commercial real estate acquisition data and current forsale properties to identify any trends that could potentially generate an increase in the application of the City’s Noxious Uses Ordinance for proposed or expanded industrial uses. From September 2022 to date, 15 properties (six commercial, three office, and six industrial businesses) sold. Three of those businesses (800-808 E. Washington Avenue, 1045 N. Fuller Street, and 923 N. Logan Street) are located in the Logan neighborhood.

Currently, multi-tenant industrial and manufacturing warehouse spaces are on the market for lease located in the TZC.

Recent City Council Actions and Direction to Address TZC Land Use Conflicts On April 16, 2024, the City Council adopted a 45-day moratorium on the approval, commencement, establishment, relocation, or expansion of industrial uses within the TZC through adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063. The purpose of the moratorium was to immediately offer protection of public health, safety, and welfare from industrial uses significantly causing pollution burden to adjacent residential neighborhoods within the TZC.

On May 7, 2024, the City Council issued a report to the public, pursuant to Section 65858(d) of the California Government Code, describing the City’s measures to alleviate conditions that led to the adoption of the moratorium.

On May 21, 2024, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-3064 to extend the moratorium for an additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days pursuant to the Government Code as necessary to provide sufficient time for staff to continue with data tracking and reporting, research appropriate regulations, and coordinate with outside regulatory agencies and City departments to determine whether further, permanent action is necessary and to generate recommendations to the Planning Commission and City Council. As part of its approval, the City Council expressed a desire for City staff to begin evaluating permanent solutions to the irreconcilable land use conflicts in the TZC area in as timely a manner as possible, which resulted in immediate evaluation of the zoning code text and map amendments consistent with direction provided for the City Council’s consideration as part of this request.

Review of City Department Activities
Immediately following the adoption of the moratorium, City staff conducted an interagency meeting that included representatives from multiple City departments: the Planning Division, Building Safety Division, Code Enforcement Division, Business License, and Information Technology. Additionally, engagement with additional agencies such as the Santa Ana Police Department (SAPD), Public Works Agency, and the Community Development Agency’s Economic Development Division has produced critical information illustrating the City Council 22 – 7 4/1/2025
ZOA No. 2024-02 & AA No. 2024-03 (Transit Zoning Code Amendments) April 1, 2025

Page 8 ends

extent to which industrial activities interface with residential land uses in the TZC area, specifically and most concentrated in the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods.

Data based on Business License and Economic Development records indicate that application of the moratorium affects approximately 127 industrial businesses in the TZC.

Of the affected businesses, approximately three have active applications for permits, primarily seeking to legalize unpermitted work on industrial properties.

City staff reviewed public safety data from SAPD and OCFA to assess community concerns regarding emergency responses in the TZC. SAPD records show a total of 18,736 calls for service between March 2023 and July 2024, with 226 of those occurring between April and July 2024 within the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods. These calls encompassed a wide range of incidents, including patrol checks, disturbances, and trafficrelated issues. Notably, 1,909 calls involved collisions, vehicle impoundments, domestic violence, and SAMC violations. OCFA data from 2022 to August 2024 indicates 238 calls for advanced life support emergencies. In 2022, 29 calls were related to respiratory issues, chest pain, and cardiac arrest, with a subsequent 7% increase in health-related calls in 2023. While the data reflects a broad spectrum of emergency responses, the concentration of industrial businesses in the TZC raises the possibility that some of these calls, particularly those related to respiratory issues and traffic incidents, may be influenced by industrial operations. Further analysis is needed to determine the specific correlation between industrial activity and public safety concerns in the area.

Currently, City staff have an internal process established that continues to track and monitor incoming notices of compliance or notices of violations from outside regulatory agencies issued to a particular business/operator. City Code Enforcement activities and implementation of the City’s Noxious Uses Ordinance continue being monitored at these facilities. Code Enforcement data show enforcement activity within the TZC, where at the time of adoption of the moratorium, 16 active open cases were issued Notices of Violations and administrative citations for the following types of violations: illegal storage, land use, zoning, property and landscape maintenance, unpermitted work, business license, and certificate of occupancy. Such violations include issues of odors, dust, traffic, noise, vibrations, and other documented impacts. Recent code enforcement complaints on properties in the Logan neighborhood involve complaints for recurring unpermitted work and land use violations that involve large commercial vehicles blocking street access and impacting nearby residents.

Review of Records and Activities of External Regulatory Agencies To broaden the analysis beyond the City's local land use impacts, City staff have received public records requested of compliance status, violation records, and violation status of outside regulatory agencies, and have contacted staff from external regulatory agencies such as the South Coast Air Quality Monitoring District (SCAQMD), Santa Ana Regional Quality Water Control Board (SARQWCB), the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), Certified Unified Program Agencies (CUPA), California Environmental Reporting System (CERS) and others responsible for issuing regulatory permits for industrial uses City Council 22 – 8 4/1/2025
ZOA No. 2024-02 & AA No. 2024-03 (Transit Zoning Code Amendments) April 1, 2025

in the TZC. Specifically, these agencies are responsible for permit issuance, compliance activities, and/or monitoring hazardous clean-up sites, or other industrial facility-related activities and have received current data requests for sites located within the TZC zoning district.

Data from outside regulatory agencies assists City staff in further understanding activities between external regulatory agencies and industrial businesses that may place additional impacts on public health, safety, and welfare in affected neighborhoods adjacent to industrial businesses in the TZC. This information would enable City staff to understand the correlation and environmental burdens that may be attributed to permitted activities for industrial businesses in historically environmentally disadvantaged communities, specifically the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods.

Records show SCAQMD issued two notices to comply with one industrial business on August 2023 and April 2024 for failure to maintain records, such as temperature graphs, poundage logs, and source test data. SCAQMD issued several permits to construct and to operate to the new operator of this same facility, which is currently in compliance with SCAQMD. Two notices of violation were issued to one industrial business for operating a paint spray booth without a valid permit to operate from SCAQMD.

The report from the SARWQCB from 2024 shows three (3) active industrial business in the TZC in violation of their permit for providing a late report or incomplete and/or insufficient information for their Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). In March 2025, one of the three businesses with active violations concluded a financial settlement directly with the SARWQCB agency.

Public records from the CUPA for Orange County, spanning 2022-2024, reveal a pattern of non-compliance with environmental and hazardous materials regulations among industrial businesses within the TZC. While some 2023 violations related to Hazardous Material Business Plan staff training and reporting were later corrected, current records indicate four businesses still have multiple open violations. These ongoing issues include non-compliance with documentation for hazardous waste transportation and disposal, as well as deficiencies in industrial stormwater reporting requirements. Notably, records from 2022-2024 show repeated failures to submit required stormwater reports and deficiencies in hazardous waste management and emergency response planning, including missing documentation and training. These violations highlight potential risks to public health and the environment.

Air emission complaints continue to be reported to SCAQMD. These complaints included one involving black smoke and another regarding unpermitted soil vapor extraction equipment onsite. SCAQMD staff has clarified that for air quality complaints they receive, their inspector is required to be physically present to observe the activity from the facility described in the complaint to determine if the complaint warrants further investigation or enforcement action in accordance with SCAQMD Rules 401 (Visible Emissions), 402 (Public Nuisance), and 403 (Fugitive Dust). Therefore, although community members continue to share concerns with City and SCAQMD staff, the turnaround time for an SCAQMD inspector City Council 22 – 9 4/1/2025
ZOA No. 2024-02 & AA No. 2024-03 (Transit Zoning Code Amendments) April 1, 2025

Page 10 ends

to be physically present at an SCAQMD-permitted facility to investigate an air quality complaint, especially if a complaint is reported after working hours or on weekends, is ineffective in addressing the immediate needs of the community.

The proposed amendments for the TZC aim to strengthen the City's land use regulatory authority, providing a necessary tool to address the deficiencies of outside regulatory agencies and their permitting and oversight, and to safeguard the health, safety, and welfare of the community.

Public Engagement
Following City Council's extension of the TZC moratorium on May 21, 2024, City staff have been developing permanent regulations for the TZC district for the City Council’s consideration. Leading up to the special Planning Commission meeting held on March 6, 2025, City staff engaged in a comprehensive outreach effort regarding TZC regulations, holding 20 meetings in various formats with affected stakeholders. This included:
• Direct engagement through eight individual and group meetings with business owners and brokers,
• Two focus group meetings with TZC business owners,
• Community outreach involving two neighborhood/resident group meetings, • Two City-hosted TZC (SD-84) meetings: The October 22, 2024 City Informational Meeting and the March 3, 2025 Community Meeting,
• Three site visits at the request of businesses, and
• Three Planning Commission meetings (February 10, 2025 Study Session and February 24/March 6 Public Hearings).

This extensive engagement aimed to gather diverse input for the development of permanent TZC regulations. To proactively ensure important communications reached all stakeholders, City staff mailed notices to all property owners and occupants, comprising 3,599 addresses, within the Transit Zoning Code area for each of the following meetings:
the October 22, 2024 City Informational Meeting, the Planning Commission February 10, 2025 Study Session and February 24, 2025 Public Hearing notice, and the City Council April 1, 2025 Public Hearing Notice.

On January 15, 2025, City staff made draft TZC (SD-84) regulations available to the public for review in advance of the scheduled Planning Commission study session on February 10, 2025 and public hearing on February 24, 2025. The amendments address the permitted uses table, nonconforming regulations, amortization, and operational standards, and are designed to prepare for the TZC moratorium's expiration on April 15, 2025.

Staff met with business owners and brokers on January 30, 2025, to discuss the draft regulations and met with the Lacy and Logan neighborhoods meeting on February 19, 2025, and again with a focus group of industrial businesses on February 20, 2025. Staff have continued to update the TZC moratorium project webpage with additional updates, including City Council 22 – 10 4/1/2025

the Study Session and Planning Commission Public Hearing Notice, Planning Commission’s Study Session PowerPoint presentation, and the draft ordinance and clarifications presented to the Planning Commission.

City staff have also prepared two Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) documents to clarify information regarding the moratorium, affected businesses, the proposed zoning amendments, legal concerns, community engagement, and opportunities to participate in the public hearing process. The first FAQ became available prior to the City’s project informational meeting on October 22, 2024, and the second FAQ was made available on February 24, 2025, and is included as Exhibit 5 to this staff report.

City staff from the Neighborhood Initiatives and Environmental Services (NIES) section of the Planning Division continue to coordinate with City departments, external regulatory agencies, and staff from other federal and state agencies to identify additional resources available to enhance deeper awareness of pollution exposure in disadvantaged communities, long-term health effects, and immediate solutions. The NIES team has held meetings and discussions with staff from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry and CalEPA Environmental Justice Team to identify opportunities for linking environmental justice (EJ) resources and support to the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods The recent SoCal Gas Company’s Climate grant award from the City from the SoCal Gas Company’s Climate Grant award will further assist in obtaining baseline air quality data and education in these communities.

Current Code and Proposed Amendments to Text, Figures, and Maps Based upon the City Council’s actions and direction enacting the moratorium combined with the research and analysis of the issues herein, staff has prepared the proposed zoning ordinance (ZOA No. 2024-02) and zoning map (AA No. 2024-03) amendments. The proposed amendments would modify the list of land uses and permit types including the deletion of industrial land uses; amend nonconforming regulations including the addition of an amortization/termination of use process; amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses; delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps; and delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the TZC boundary as designated on the City of Santa Ana Zoning Map.

regulations for zoning districts, land
uses, and permit types within the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
deletes the I-OZ Zone, including
replacing Figure 2.1, the Regulating Plan
(map) with a new Figure 2.1 removing
the I-OZ Zone designation from all
parcels within the TZC boundary.

Code Section Title Existing Zoning Code Regulations Proposed Zoning Code Regulations Uses Permitted SAMC Section 41-2007 provides the
allowable land uses and permit types
required to establish a land use by
each zoning district within the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
clarifies application of the use standards
by zoning district as follows:
• Modifies Table 2A containing the Use
Standards by adding and reclassifying
certain land use types appropriate to
the TZC land use subcategories
• Deletes certain land use types that are
inconsistent with the intent and
purpose of the TZC, including the
deletion of the Small-Scale Industry
land use subcategory in its entirety.

Operational
Standards for
Permitted Uses
SAMC Section 41-2008 primarily
regulates new uses within the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
further limits certain operations to ensure
greater compatibility between residential
and non-residential land uses.

Operational
Standards for
Nonconforming
Industrial Uses
SAMC Section 41-2009 is an entirely
new set of regulations specific to
existing nonconforming industrial uses
within the TZC.

The new Section establishes regulations
for operation of any existing, legally
established, nonconforming industrial
use. The regulations cover general
standards, enclosed operations, air
emissions and dust, light, glare, and
heat, ground vibration, outdoor storage
and screening, hazardous materials,
liquid and solid waste, site maintenance,
truck parking and loading, and hours of
operation.

Definitions SAMC Section 41-2080 contains the
definitions applicable to terms and land
uses of the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
provides clarification for certain land use
types (artisan/craft product with limited
on-site production, commercial
recreation facility – indoor, and research
and development), adds definitions for
land use types (automobile repair,
automobile service, business support
services, craft and specialized
automotive restoration service, pet day
care facility and trade school), and
deletes corresponding definitions for land
use types that were deleted as part of
the amendments to SAMC Section 41-
2006.

Analysis of the Issues
The proposed amendments to the Sections of the TZC under the topic headings of Application of Article, Organization, Application for Discretionary Approvals, and Definitions are largely to ensure internal consistency related to the more substantive changes being proposed for the TZC to address irreconcilable land use conflicts, described as follows:
• Nonconforming Structures and Uses - Section 41-2002 regulates the nonconforming building, structure or use specifically within the TZC. The regulations are unique to City Council 22 – 13 4/1/2025
ZOA No. 2024-02 & AA No. 2024-03 (Transit Zoning Code Amendments) April 1, 2025

the TZC and do not apply citywide. The regulations determine under certain circumstances when a nonconforming structure or use can rehabilitate both structural or nonstructural; or expand conditions that would allow expansion. Due to the concerns enumerated within this report related to nonconforming industrial uses within the TZC, the amendments to this section increasingly limit rehabilitation of structures to those types of improvements that address compliance with the new Section 41-2009 operational standards for nonconforming industrial uses; and disallow the expansion of any nonconforming industrial use. This Section also includes new provisions to establish a process for the discontinuance of nonconforming uses, specifically noxious uses, and the elimination of those uses or structures through an amortization hearing process. The tools that these new regulations provide are necessary to address the environmental impacts that lead to the adoption of the moratorium, provide the framework to initiate the process to eliminate noxious industrial land uses from the TZC, and align with the adopted EJ policies of the General Plan.
• The Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) Zone – Section 41-2004 created an “exception” zone for properties within the TZC that had already contained M1 or M2 industrial zoning, uses and structures, when the TZC was adopted in 2010. In order to be both consistent and to promulgate the new General Plan land use designations within the TZC, the removal of this overlay zone is necessary. The zone currently gives deference to the property owner of these parcels with an industrial overlay to decide when and whether to redevelop their properties in a manner that would remove the industrial structure and use, replacing it with an allowable use and conforming to the design standards of the TZC. Eliminating the I-OZ Zone will cause these properties to become nonconforming as to use and structure, subjecting them to the regulations as amended and added to Section 41-2002, including discontinuance of nonconforming use or structure though amortization. Section 41-2004 has been deleted in its entirety with the section number reserved. • Zones Established and Uses Permitted – Amendments to Sections 41-2006 and 41- 2007, respectively, include parallel deletion of the I-OZ Zone affecting the Regulating Plan (TZC zoning map) and the corresponding Use Standards tables regulating the land use and permit types for each of the remaining zones of the TZC. Table 2A categorizes land uses into broad subheadings for both residential and nonresidential land uses. The nonresidential land uses are further categorized into commercialoriented versus industrial-oriented types of uses. The amendments will eliminate the Small-Scale Industry sub-category altogether, since the majority of these uses are industrial uses incompatible with residential uses. The purpose of the TZC is to promote transit-oriented mixed-use development, which pairs residential and nonresidential land uses either horizontally or vertically on a site or within a building.

Compatibility of allowable land use types is critical, particularly given the history of the negative impacts from industrial uses remaining in the area and in close proximity to existing and new residential areas. Amending this Section also replaces the TZC zoning map figure to ensure consistency with the City’s Official Zoning Map and City Council 22 – 14 4/1/2025

General Plan Land Use Map in accordance with requirements of State law, Government Code Section 65860.
• Operational Standards for Permitted Uses and Operational Standards for Nonconforming Industrial Uses – Section 41-2008 contains operational standards applicable to all uses within the TZC boundary. This Section is largely unchanged, with clarification and strengthening of certain regulations to address any possible industrial type function of an allowable land use type as listed in the tables of Section 41-2007. These amendments affected any possible manufacturing related activities, sound, screening walls, and eliminated any vehicular service on Sundays. Section 41-2009 establishes new regulations governing existing industrial uses made nonconforming with the removal of the I-OZ Zone within the TZC, and include general standards, enclosed operations, air emissions and dust, light, glare, and heat, ground vibration, outdoor storage and screening, hazardous materials, liquid and solid waste, site maintenance, truck parking and loading, and hours of operation. The amendments to Section 41-2008 and creation of new regulations under Section 41- 2009 ensure that existing nonconforming uses comply with very specific operational standards and/or face amortization that leads ultimately to discontinuance of use, effectively reestablishing the TZC area with residential uses and allowing certain nonresidential uses compatible to such residential and/or mixed-use development.

Profile of Industrial Businesses Affected with Proposed Regulations The TZC area is characterized by a diverse mix of approximately 127 industrial businesses.

These businesses range from automotive services (the most common industry type) and manufacturing to warehousing and recycling centers. Data compiled from city and external regulatory agencies, including CalEPA, SCAQMD, and CERS, reveal that these businesses operate under various permits related to hazardous materials, air quality, and water quality.

Key business characteristics include the storage and use of hazardous materials such as motor oil, solvents, and various chemicals, as well as the operation of equipment like emergency generators and internal combustion engines. Notably, several businesses, particularly those engaged in manufacturing (spray booths, metal processing) and chemical storage, handle substances like xylene, resins, mineral oils, and acids, posing potential risks related to air and water contamination, as well as fire and health hazards. Heavier industrial operators, such as open air recycling and sorting facilities in the TZC have been creating a range of issues in the neighborhood. Issues range from: 1) air pollution – dust and participate matter from the sorting process that can become airborne, leading to respiratory problems and reduced air quality, VOCs released from decomposing materials, and odors; 2) water pollution from stormwater runoff that can carry contaminants, including debris, chemicals, or bacteria, from a facility to nearby waterways; 3) noise pollution from heavy machinery, trucks, and sorting equipment generating noise; and 4) visual blight from the constant movement of trucks and equipment and from the piles of trash, debris, and recycling materials that detract from the aesthetic appeal of the community. The secondary effects affect residents’ quality of life with increased traffic hazards and living next to these heavier industrial uses and the risks being exposed to these issues on a daily basis.

Planning Commission Public Hearing – February 24, 2025
On February 24, 2025, the Santa Ana Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to consider recommending ZOA No. 2024-02, AA No. 2024-03, and resolution to make findings and adopt Addendum to TZC SD-84 Final EIR. Upon hearing all testimony, the Commission closed the public hearing, held discussion, provided direction to staff, and continued the item to a special meeting scheduled for March 6, 2025. The Commission requested that staff conduct and provide certain deliverables for their further consideration of the proposed amendments, in order to render a recommendation to the City Council on the proposed TZC amendments. The three requested actions for staff were as follows:
1) Conduct an additional community meeting collectively, with interested parties in attendance at the hearing, including residents, businesses, and property owners, to facilitate further input on the proposed amendments; 2) Prepare a financial analysis to address potential impacts to the City as a result of adopting the proposed amendments; and
3) Provide a legal briefing related to potential challenges that may result from adoption of the proposed amendments.

Additional Community Meeting – March 3, 2025
Staff held a community meeting with interested parties, including business owners, property owners, residents, and others, on Monday, March 3, 2025, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) First Floor Conference Room (1000 E. Santa Ana Blvd.) to garner additional feedback about the proposed changes. The summary of the March 3, 2025 TZC (SD-84) Community Meeting can be found in Exhibit 1 of Exhibit 7 (March 6, 2025 Special Planning Commission Supplemental Staff Report and Exhibits), which is attached to this staff report.

As a result of the input received at that community meeting, combined with the prior analysis of the proposed amendments as outlined in the February 24, 2025, Planning Commission staff report, staff proposed clarifying edits as well as text edits to the Ordinance presented to the Planning Commission on February 24, 2025 that can be found in Exhibit 7. Specifically, the clarifications address typographical errors as well as the emergent themes from the March 3rd community meeting related to hours of operation and clarifying that nonconforming and “legal” nonconforming are one and the same term for the purposes of implementing the TZC. The summary of the March 3, 2025 TZC (SD84) Community Meeting can be found in Exhibit 1 of Exhibit 7 (March 6, 2025 Special Planning Commission Supplemental Staff Report and Exhibits), which is attached to this staff report.

Financial Information related to adoption of proposed TZC (SD-84) amendments The Planning Commission requested City staff to provide financial information specifically on the amendments’ effects on City revenues that would result from the proposed ordinance. Staff from the City’s Finance and Management Services Agency evaluated aggregate financial information using data sources for the City’s tax base that include sales tax, property tax, businesses license tax, and utility users’ tax within the TZC. Staff provided information as part of City staff’s presentation during the scheduled March 6, 2025, meeting and emphasized that due to confidentiality requirements, revenue details provided are in general and aggregate form, preventing the disclosure of individual business revenue.

Furthermore, evaluating the actual fiscal impact would be speculative and may vary significantly due to numerous unpredictable factors, including the fact the proposed ordinance does not propose the closure of any business; rendering business uses legal nonconforming does not preclude the establishment of a new, similar business in the same location that may result in no change to the City’s revenues; fluctuations in economic conditions; and potential changes in business operations. These factors were presented to the Planning Commission, which took the information into account in making its recommendation to approve to the City Council. A description of the requested financial information is included in Exhibit 7 (March 6, 2025 Special Planning Commission Supplemental Staff Report and Exhibits), which is attached to this staff report.

Legal Analysis
The Commission requested that the City Attorney provide a briefing related to legal challenges to the proposed TZC amendments, specifically the creation of nonconforming status to business and structures, and the general argument of a “taking,” as that term is used legally. The City Attorney’s Office provided a confidential memorandum separately to the Planning Commission summarizing these legal questions. Due to the potential for litigation, the information contained in the memorandum is considered client privileged and confidential.

Recommended Action Taken by the Planning Commission – March 6, 2025 At a special meeting on March 6, 2025, the Planning Commission voted 4:2:1, with Commissioners Benninger and Leo dissenting and Vice-Chair Ramos absent (due to advisement of a potential conflict of interest due to her residence being in close proximity to the project area), to recommend that the City Council approve the recommended actions. As part of its recommendation to approve, the Planning Commission included clarifying edits to the draft ZOA proposed by staff, which have been incorporated into the proposed text amendments.

General Plan Consistency
The proposed zoning ordinance amendments are consistent with various goals and policies of the Santa Ana General Plan, including the Land Use, Community, Economic Prosperity, and Conservation elements. Consistency with the General Plan is required by Government Code Section 65860, by timely addressing current inconsistencies within an area of the City prioritized for addressing EJ. In effect, the amendments are necessary to address numerous policies of the General Plan that the current TZC is found to be inconsistent with, that without such amendments, will continue the path of irreconcilable land use patterns within the TZC.

Specifically, these policies include Policy LU-1.1 (Compatible Uses), Policy LU-2.4 (Cost and Benefit of Development), Policy LU-3.8 (Sensitive Receptors), Policy LU-3.9 (Noxious, Hazardous, Dangerous, and Polluting Uses), Policy LU-3.11 (Air Pollution Buffers), Policy LU-4.3 (Sustainable Land Use Strategies), Policy LU-4.6 (Healthy Living Conditions), Policy CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), Policy EP-1.9 (Avoid Conflict of Uses), Policy EP-3.3 (Mitigate Impacts), Policy CN-1.5 (Sensitive Receptor Decisions), Policy CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), and Policy HE-5.5 (Community Development), which are targeted at correcting past land use planning practices that have placed an unequitable environmental and health burden on certain neighborhoods now termed disadvantaged communities. The proposed amendments support these goals and policies by:
• Fostering the compatibility between residential and nonresidential land uses within the TZC to enhance livability and promote healthier lifestyles, and improve public health and quality of life;
• Resolving the development of industrial land uses and sensitive receptors being in close proximity to each other that pose health hazards by eliminating an overlay zone that promulgated continuation of industrial uses without recourse; • Improving the health of the existing and future residents of the TZC by regulating the operations of noxious, hazardous, dangerous, and polluting uses by giving priority to the discontinuance of those uses;
• Responding to overarching EJ policies to develop and implement land use and zoning strategies to separate existing sensitive uses from heavy industrial facilities and emission sources;
• Continuing to support the creation of healthy neighborhoods by addressing land use conflicts and incompatible uses through the elimination of the I-OZ zone and associated industrial land use types from the list of allowable land uses within the TZC;
• Developing and adopting new regulations to address facilities that emit increased pollution new sensitive receptors within EJ area boundaries, which includes areas of the TZC;
• Avoiding potential land use conflicts in the future by prohibiting the location of noxious land uses in proximity to sensitive receptors; and
• Creating a sustainable land use plan for the area that phases out land uses that are causing a substantial drain on City and other public agency resources in addressing the impacts from irreconcilable land use conflicts in the TZC area.

Additionally, the proposed amendments implement and/or contribute to achieving the following specific action programs of the General Plan, most particularly directly addressing LU3.3 through the creation of a discontinuance of nonconforming industrial uses through amortization:

LU1.1 - Development Code Update. Prepare a comprehensive update to the zoning code to ensure that the City’s zoning regulations align with the General Plan’s goals and policies.

Update the Metro East Mixed-Use Overlay District to remove the portion within the 17th Street and Grand Avenue Focus Area. Update the Midtown Specific Plan.

LU3.3 - Healthy lifestyles. Collaborate with residents and industry stakeholders to create a program to incentivize and amortize the removal of existing heavy industrial uses adjacent to sensitive uses.

CN1.4 - Health risk criteria. Establish criteria for requiring health risk assessments for existing and new industries, including the type of business, thresholds, and scope of assessment. Review existing and establish new regulation to reduce and avoid increased pollution near sensitive receptors within environmental justice area boundaries.

CN1.7 - Truck idling. Evaluate strategies to reduce truck idling found or reported in areas with sensitive receptors, with a priority placed on environmental justice areas.

CN1.11 - Public education. Augment existing outreach programs to improve public awareness of State, regional, and local agencies’ roles and resources to identify, monitor, and address air quality and other environmental hazards in the community.

HE5.C – Healthy Neighborhoods Initiatives. Update the City’s zoning code development and operational standards for industrial zones to address incompatibility with adjacent uses, including minimum distance requirements to buffer heavy industrial uses from sensitive receptors. Conduct a study to evaluate and establish appropriate minimum distances and landscape buffers between polluting industrial uses from sensitive receptors such as residences.

HE44.A – Fair Housing. Ensure all City programs and activities relating to housing and community development are administered in a manner that affirmatively furthers fair housing.

Santa Ana’s current General Plan champions implementation policies, including 77 EJ actions that address air quality, noxious uses, water safety, residential lead exposure in the soil, and other environmental public health conditions. The proposed TZC amendments align with both the General Plan's EJ policies and the original land use designations applicable to the area since the adoption of the TZC in 2010.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires public agencies and local governments to measure the environmental impacts of development projects or other major land use decisions, and to limit or avoid those impacts if possible. CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states the following with respect to an Addendum to an EIR:
a) The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. b) An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative declaration have occurred.
c) An addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the final EIR or adopted negative declaration. d) The decision-making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR or adopted negative declaration prior to making a decision on the project. e) A brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15162 should be included in an addendum to an EIR, the lead agency’s findings on the project, or elsewhere in the record. The explanation must be supported by substantial evidence.

Additionally, CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, Subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations, states the following with respect to a Subsequent EIRs:
(a) When an EIR has been certified or a negative declaration adopted for a project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following:
(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
(2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
(3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;

Page 21 ends

(B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR;
(C)Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
(D)Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. (b) If changes to a project or its circumstances occur or new information becomes available after adoption of a negative declaration, the lead agency shall prepare a subsequent EIR if required under subdivision (a). Otherwise, the lead agency shall determine whether to prepare a subsequent negative declaration, an addendum, or no further documentation.

ZOA No. 2024-02 and AA No. 2024-03 are considered a project as defined by the CEQA.

The City, as the Lead Agency, has determined that it is subject to CEQA guidelines and regulations (Public Resources Code (PRC) Sections 21000-21177). An Addendum to the Transit Zoning Code Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (State Clearing House (SCH) No. 2006071100) has been prepared by the City. Based on its independent review and analysis, and the administrative record as a whole, and, in exercising its independent judgement, hereby finds that pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent EIR would be required for the proposed project; and pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, an addendum to the Transit Zoning Code EIR is required for the adoption of the Ordinances.

Specifically, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, the City finds on the basis of substantial evidence in light of the whole record, that: (1) no substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) no substantial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; and (3) there is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified as complete, that shows any of the following: (A) the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the EIR; (B) significant effect previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR; (C) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (D) mitigation measures or alternative which are considerably different from those analyzed in the EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA

ANA TO MAKE FINDINGS PURSUANT TO PUBLIC RESOURCES
CODE SECTION 21166 AND TO ADOPT THE ADDENDUM TO

THE TRANSIT ZONING CODE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT (STATE CLEARINGHOUSE NUMBER NO. 2006071100)
WHEREAS, at a duly noticed public hearing held on June 7, 2010, the City Council of the City of Santa Ana (“City Council”) adopted findings and a Statement of Overriding Considerations and certified the Transit Zoning Code Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2006071100, “Transit Zoning Code EIR”), pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code, §§ 21000, et seq., “CEQA”), the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations, §§ 15000, et seq., “CEQA Guidelines”) and adopted the City of Santa Ana’s Transit Zoning Code (“Transit Zoning Code”), which is designed to provide the zoning necessary to support the long-term development of a successful transit program; and WHEREAS, after continued research and study, two ordinances have been developed that address the impacts from industrial land uses in the Specific Development No. 84 (SD-84) Zoning District, also known as the Transit Zoning Code:
(1) Zoning Ordinance Amendment (ZOA) No. 2024-02 to amend certain provisions of the Santa Ana Municipal Code and amend portions of the Transit Zoning Code, including the deletion of industrial land uses; amendment of non-conforming regulations; and (2) Amendment Application (AA) No. 2024-03 to remove the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the SD-84 Zoning District boundary as designated on the City of Santa Ana Zoning Map; and WHEREAS, pursuant to CEQA, when taking subsequent discretionary actions in furtherance of a project for which an EIR has been certified, the lead agency is required to review any changed circumstances to determine whether any of the circumstances under Public Resources Code section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines section 15162 require additional environmental review; and
WHEREAS, the City has evaluated the proposed ordinances to the Transit Zoning Code in light of the standards for subsequent environmental review outlined in Public Resources Code section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines section 15162, and concluded that the proposed changes would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects that were previously disclosed in the Transit Zoning Code EIR, and therefore no subsequent EIR or mitigated negative declaration is required; and WHEREAS, the proposed changes would nonetheless necessitate minor changes or additions to the Transit Zoning Code EIR and, thus, the City has prepared an Addendum for the Transit Zoning Code EIR (“Addendum”), attached as Exhibit 1, pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines section 15164 to address the proposed ordinances; and
Exhibit 1 - Resolution of the City Council and Addendum to the TZC EIR City Council 22 – 23 4/1/2025
WHEREAS, the Addendum was prepared in full compliance with CEQA, CEQA Guidelines, and the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines; and
WHEREAS CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, subdivision (c) does not require the Addendum to be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to a final EIR or adopted negative declaration; and
WHEREAS, under CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines and as referenced below, the "project" shall mean the proposed ordinances under the Transit Zoning Code including implementation of these ordinances; and
WHEREAS, on February 24, 2025, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to consider these proposed ordinances, where all interested persons were given an opportunity to be heard, and after closing the public hearing, continued taking any action on this Ordinance to a special meeting held on March 6, 2025, whereby the Planning Commission recommended approval of the ordinances to the City Council; WHEREAS, on April 1, 2025, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing to consider these proposed ordinances, where all interested persons were given an opportunity to be heard; and
WHEREAS the City Council considered the entire administrative record, including the staff report (and all attachments thereto), the Transit Zoning Code EIR and Addendum, and oral and written testimony from interested persons; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Santa Ana as follows:

Section 1. The above recitals are true and incorporated herein by reference.

Section 2. CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 requires lead agencies to prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions to the project are necessary, but none of the conditions requiring preparation of a subsequent EIR are present. The City Council has reviewed and considered the administrative record, including but not limited to the Transit Zoning Code EIR and the Addendum, which are all incorporated by reference as though set forth fully herein, and finds that those documents taken together contain a complete and accurate reporting of all the environmental impacts associated with the Transit Zoning Code. The City Council further finds that the Addendum and the administrative record have been completed in compliance with CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines, and the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines.

The City Council finds and determines that the Addendum reflects the City’s independent judgment.

The City Council finds that the foregoing is supported by substantial evidence in the record.

City Council 22 – 24 4/1/2025
Furthermore, when taking subsequent discretionary actions in furtherance of a project for which an EIR has been certified, the City is required to review any changed circumstances under Public Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 to determine whether additional environmental review is required. Based on the substantial evidence set forth in the administrative record, including but not limited to the Transit Zoning Code EIR and the Addendum, the City Council finds that none of the conditions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 requiring subsequent environmental review have occurred because the proposed ordinances:
a) do not constitute substantial changes that would require major revisions to the Transit Zoning Code EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects; and
b) do not constitute substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project was developed that would require major revisions of the Transit Zoning Code EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects; and
c) do not present new information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the Transit Zoning Code was certified, showing any of the following:

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Introduction and Purpose
On April 16, 2024, the City Council adopted a 45-day moratorium on the approval, commencement, establishment, relocation, or expansion of industrial uses within the Transit Zoning Code/Specific Development (SD) No. 84 Zoning District (or “SD 84A and 84B”) through adoption of Urgency Interim Ordinance No. NS-3063. The purpose of the moratorium was to immediately offer protection of public health, safety, and welfare from industrial uses significantly causing pollution burden to adjacent residential neighborhoods within the SD84 Zoning District. On May 21, 2024, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-3064 to extend the moratorium for an additional ten (10) months and fifteen (15) days pursuant to the Government Code to provide sufficient time for staff to continue with data tracking and reporting, research appropriate regulations, and coordinate with outside regulatory agencies and City departments to determine whether further, permanent action is necessary and to generate recommendations to the Planning Commission and City Council.

Based upon the City Council’s actions and direction enacting the moratorium combined with the research and analysis of the issues herein, staff has prepared Zoning Ordinance Amendment (ZOA) No. 2024-02 and Amendment Application (AA) No. 2024-03. The proposed amendments (“proposed amendments” or “project”) will modify the list of land uses and permit types including the deletion of industrial land uses; amend nonconforming regulations including the addition of an amortization process for industrial uses; amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses; delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps; and delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the SD84 Zoning District boundary as designated on the City of Santa Ana Zoning Map.

Refer to Section 3.2 – Project Description.

Following preliminary review of proposed ZOA No. 2024-02 and AA No. 2024-03 amendments, the City, as the Lead Agency, has determined that the project is subject to CEQA (Public Resources Code (PRC) §§21000-21177; 14 CCR §§15000, et seq.). This Addendum to Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and 84B) Environmental Impact Report (“TZC EIR”) (SCH No. 2006071100) has been prepared to demonstrate that, pursuant to the standards contained in CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, this project is within the scope of the TZC EIR. As a result, the City does not need to prepare a subsequent or supplemental EIR as the TZC EIR fully analyzed the potential impacts associated with the proposed amendments. This is consistent with Section

8.06 of the City’s Local Guidelines for Implementing CEQA.

1.2 Statutory Authority and Requirements
CEQA Guidelines Section 15164 states the following with respect to an Addendum to an EIR:
a) The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. b) An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative declaration have occurred.
c) An addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the final EIR or adopted negative declaration.

City Council 22 – 31 4/1/2025
January 2025 2 Environmental Analysis
d) The decision making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR or adopted negative declaration prior to making a decision on the project. e) A brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15162 should be included in an addendum to an EIR, the lead agency’s findings on the project, or elsewhere in the record. The explanation must be supported by substantial evidence.

CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, Subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations, states the following with respect to a Subsequent EIRs:
(a) When an EIR has been certified or a negative declaration adopted for a project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following:
(1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
(2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted, shows any of the following:
(A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration;
(B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR;
(C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
(D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
(b) If changes to a project or its circumstances occur or new information becomes available after adoption of a negative declaration, the lead agency shall prepare a subsequent EIR if required under subdivision (a). Otherwise the lead agency shall determine whether to prepare a subsequent negative declaration, an addendum, or no further documentation.

1.3 Incorporation by Reference
The TZC Final EIR, including the original Draft EIR (DEIR), and has been made available for public review at the Lead Agency office (City of Santa Ana). The Final EIR is incorporated into this Addendum by reference.

City Council 22 – 32 4/1/2025
January 2025 3 Environmental Analysis
This Addendum is available for public inspection at the City at 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA, and on the City’s website at https://www.santa-ana.org/environmental-impact-reporttransit-zoning-code/.

2.0 BACKGROUND
The TZC was established in June 2010, which is located in the area west of Interstate 5, north of First Street, and between Grand Avenue and Flower Street, and south of Civic Center Drive in the City of Santa Ana. The TZC provided new zoning for all of the properties contained within its boundary. However, some properties with existing M1 and M2 zoning and/or existing industrial businesses also received an overlay district designation which allowed for the continuation of industrial land uses on those properties and allows for the option of future mixeduse development to be exercised at the discretion of the property owner. The purpose was to establish a transit-supportive, pedestrian-oriented development framework to support the addition of new transit infrastructure; preserve and reinforce the existing character and pedestrian nature of the City by strengthening urban form through improved development and design standards; encourage alternative modes of transportation; provide for a range of housing options; and allow for the reuse of existing structures. On June 7, 2010, the City adopted the TZC and certified the TZC Final EIR (SCH No. 2006071100).

The TZC Final EIR provides a program-level and project-level analysis of the environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the TZC. The majority of the analysis is done at the program level; however, a project-level analysis is provided for the development proposal to demolish 30,000 square feet of existing structures on eleven Redevelopment Agency-owned parcels and to construct 220 affordable residential units. The TZC Final EIR concluded full implementation of the TZC would result in significant and unavoidable impacts with respect to the following: aesthetics, air quality, cultural resources, noise, transportation, and climate change. The TZC Final EIR’s background and environmental impact conclusions are cited throughout this Addendum.

In July 2019, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. NS-2970, amending the Transit Zoning Code to modify certain design criteria regarding height, massing, open space location, driveway standards, lot dimensions, and parking alternatives, and determined that this ordinance was exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines, section 15061(b)(3). This amendment did not include changes to land uses or permit types within the TZC. In support of the TZC amendment, the City Council also approved a General Plan amendment, establishing numerous mixed-use General Plan land use designations for the entirety of the TZC. Refer to Figure 1 – Existing Transit Zoning Code area and Figure 2 Transit Zoning Code Designations, below.

However, due to the continued application of the industrial overlay zones within the TZC, implementation of the new General Plan land use designations immediately resulted in zoning inconsistencies and land use conflicts with the new General Plan.

3.0 DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT
The proposed amendments would modify the list of land uses and permit types, including the following:
• Deletion of industrial land uses
• Amend nonconforming regulations, including the addition of an amortization process • Amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses • Delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps • Delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the SD84 Zoning District boundary as designated on the City of Santa Ana Zoning Map
Implementation of the proposed amendments do not include nor require implementation of any site-specific development projects.

Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations, below lists the proposed amendments and is followed by a summary of each. Figure 2.5 Proposed Transit Zoning Code Designations depicts the removal of I-OZ from the map.

Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations
Code Section
Title Existing Zoning Code Regulations Proposed Zoning Code Regulations Application of
Article
SAMC Section 41-2001 establishes the land
uses and standards applicable to the TZC -
primarily for new uses.

The update to text of this Section
clarifies that the regulations apply to
existing uses, whether conforming or
nonconforming, change in land use or
tenancy requiring issuance of
Certificate of Occupancy.

Organization SAMC Section 41-2001.5 establishes the
contents and organization of the TZC
regulations
The update to the text is necessary to
encompass the new Section 41-2009
(Operational Standards for
Nonconforming Industrial Uses).

Nonconforming
Buildings,
Structures and
Uses
SAMC Section 41-2002 establishes the
regulations for nonconforming buildings,
structures or uses within the TZC boundary.

The provisions contain minimal limits for
rehabilitation of buildings and structures and
their expansion for both residential and nonresidential uses.

The update to text of this Section will
further limit some rehabilitation of
buildings and structures, with specific
emphasis on nonconforming industrial
uses. These updated provisions
include:
• Requiring rehabilitation or expansion
of buildings and structures, occupied by
any nonconforming use to comply with
the new operational standards
contained in Section 41-2009.
• Prohibits expansion of a building or
structure occupied by a nonconforming
industrial use.
• Discontinuation of nonconforming

• Establishes authority for voluntary
compliance agreements between the
City and nonconforming uses.

The Industrial
Overlay (I-OZ)
Zone
SAMC Section 41-2004 establishes an
overlay zone applied to M1 and M2 zoned
properties located within the TZC boundary.

Section 41-2004 is deleted in its
entirety, removing the I-OZ Zone from
the TZC to eliminate industrial land use
type zoning altogether.

Application for
Discretionary
Approvals
SAMC Section 41-2005 establishes the
process and timing of vesting for certain
uses approved with a discretionary permit.

Section 41-2005 is renumbered as 41-
2004, and the update to the text of this
Section adds clarification for effects of
the amendments to the TZC dependent
upon status of an application in the City
process of review, approval, and/or
building permit issuance, if required.

Zones
Established
SAMC Section 41-2006 contains the
regulations for zoning districts, land uses,
and permit types within the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
deletes the I-OZ Zone, including
replacing Figure 2.1, the Regulating
Plan (map) with a new Figure 2.1
removing the I-OZ Zone designation
from all parcels within the TZC
boundary.

Uses
Permitted
SAMC Section 41-2007 provides the
allowable land uses and permit types
required to establish a land use by each
zoning district within the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
clarifies application of the use
standards by zoning district as follows:
• Modifies Table 2A containing the Use
Standards by adding and reclassifying
certain land use types appropriate to
the TZC land use subcategories
• Deletes certain land use types that
are inconsistent with the intent and
purpose of the TZC, including the
deletion of the Small-Scale Industry
land use subcategory in its entirety.

Operational
Standards
SAMC Section 41-2008 primarily regulates
new uses within the TZC.

The update to the text of this Section
further limits certain operations to
ensure greater compatibility between
residential and non-residential land
uses.

Operational
Standards for
Nonconforming
Industrial Uses
SAMC Section 41-2009 is an entirely new
set of regulations specific to existing
nonconforming industrial uses within the
TZC.

The new Section establishes
regulations for operation of any
existing, legally established,
nonconforming industrial use. The
regulations cover general standards,

Analysis of the Amendments
The proposed amendments to the Sections of the TZC under the topic headings of Application of Article, Organization, Application for Discretionary Approvals, and Definitions are largely to ensure internal consistency related to the more substantive changes being proposed for the TZC to address irreconcilable land use conflicts, described as follows:
• Nonconforming Structures and Uses - Section 41-2002 regulates the nonconforming building, structure or use specifically within the TZC. The regulations are unique to the TZC and do not apply citywide. The regulations determine under certain circumstances when a nonconforming structure or use can rehabilitate both structural or nonstructural; or expand conditions that would allow expansion. Due to the concerns enumerated within this report related to nonconforming industrial uses within the TZC, the amendments to this section increasingly limit rehabilitation of structures to those types of improvements that address compliance with the new Section 41-2009 operational standards for nonconforming industrial uses; and disallow the expansion of any nonconforming industrial use. This Section also includes new provisions to establish a process for the discontinuance of nonconforming uses, specifically noxious uses, and the elimination of those uses or structures through an amortization hearing process. The tools that these new regulations provide are necessary to address the environmental impacts that lead to the adoption of the Moratorium, provide the framework to initiate the process to eliminate noxious industrial land uses from the TZC, and align with the adopted EJ policies of the General Plan.
• The Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) Zone – Section 41-2004 created an “exception” zone for properties within the TZC that contained M1 or M2 industrial zoning, uses and structures, when the TZC was adopted in 2010. In order to be both consistent and to promulgate the General Plan land use designations within the TZC, the removal of this overlay zone is necessary. The zone currently gives deference to the property owner of these parcels with an industrial overlay to decide when and whether to redevelop their properties in a manner that would remove the industrial structure and use, replacing it with an allowable use and conforming to the design standards of the TZC. Eliminating the I-OZ Zone will cause these properties to become nonconforming as to use and structure, subjecting them to the regulations as amended and added to Section 41-2002, including discontinuance of nonconforming use or structure though amortization. With the deletion of the entirety of the text of Section 41-2004, Section 41-2005 Application for Discretionary Approvals is renumbered as Section 41-2004. • Zones Established and Uses Permitted – Amendments to Sections 41-2006 and 41- 2007, respectively, include parallel deletion of the I-OZ Zone affecting the Regulating Plan (TZC zoning map) and the corresponding Use Standards tables regulating the land use and permit types for each of the remaining zones of the TZC. Table 2A categorizes land uses into broad subheadings for both residential and nonresidential land uses. The nonresidential land uses are further categorized into commercial-oriented versus industrial-oriented types of uses. The amendments will eliminate the Small-Scale Industry sub-category altogether, since the majority of these uses are industrial uses incompatible with residential uses. The purpose of the TZC is to promote transit-oriented mixed-use development, which pairs residential and nonresidential land uses either horizontally or vertically on a site or within a building. Compatibility of allowable land use types is critical, particularly given the history of the negative impacts from industrial uses remaining in the area and in close proximity to existing and new residential areas.

Amending this Section also replaces the TZC zoning map figure to ensure consistency with the City’s Official Zoning Map and General Plan Land Use Map in accordance with requirements of State law, Government Code Section 65860.

City Council 22 – 40 4/1/2025
January 2025 11 Environmental Analysis
• Operational Standards and Operational Standards for Nonconforming Industrial Uses – Section 41-2008 contains operational standards applicable to all uses within the TZC boundary. This Section is largely unchanged, with clarification and strengthening of certain regulations to address any possible industrial type function of an allowable land use type as listed in the tables of Section 41-2007. These amendments affected any possible manufacturing related activities, sound, screening walls and eliminated any vehicular service on Sundays. Section 41-2009 establishes new regulations governing existing industrial uses made nonconforming with the removal of the I-OZ Zone within the TZC, and include general standards, enclosed operations, air emissions and dust, light, glare, and heat, ground vibration, outdoor storage and screening, hazardous materials, liquid and solid waste, site maintenance, truck parking and loading, and hours of operation. The amendments to Section 41-2008 and creation of new regulations under Section 41-2009 ensure that existing nonconforming uses comply with very specific operational standards and/or face amortization that leads ultimately to discontinuance of use, effectively reestablishing the TZC area with residential uses and allowing certain nonresidential uses compatible to such residential and/or mixed-use development.

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
The City of Santa Ana is located in Orange County and serves as the County seat. The City is in the western central portion of Orange County, approximately 30 miles southwest of the City of Los Angeles and 10 miles northeast of the City of Newport Beach (refer to Figure 3, Regional Location). As shown in Figure 4, Citywide Aerial, the City is bordered by the City of Orange and unincorporated areas of Orange County to the north, the City of Tustin to the east, the cities of Irvine and Costa Mesa to the south, and the cities of Fountain Valley and Garden Grove to the west. The TZC area is shown in blue on both Figure 3 and Figure 4, and a detailed view is shown on Figure 1 in Section 2.0.

City Council 22 – 43 4/1/2025
January 2025 14 Environmental Analysis
At the local level, the TZC area is located in the central urban core of the City and comprises over 100 blocks and 450 acres, and is generally bounded by I-5 to the north and east, First Street to the south, and Flower Street to the west. Refer to Figure 1 in the Background section.

The majority of the City is urbanized, with residential and nonresidential development, and mobility and public facilities all contributing to Santa Ana’s existing built environment. The City’s incorporated boundaries encompass approximately 27.4 square miles. Residential land uses occupy almost 40 percent of the land within the current City boundaries, accounting for 5,226 acres. Other predominant land uses include commercial (1,588 acres) and industrial (1,628 acres).

While Santa Ana is a densely populated urban center with one of the most diverse international populations in Orange County, it can generally be characterized as a City of neighborhoods.

Santa Ana has over 65 neighborhoods which are distinguished by their history, architecture, housing types, amenities, and unique character.

The Specific Development (SD) No. 84 Zoning District, also known as the TZC, is located in the central urban core of the City and comprises over 100 blocks and 450 acres, and is generally bounded by First Street, Flower Street, Civic Center Drive, Grand Avenue, and the Santa Ana (I-5) Freeway.

The TZC area includes the Orange County Civic Center consisting of City, County and federal buildings, City, Downtown, the Logan and Lacy neighborhoods, which are among the City’s most historic in age and are established residential communities. Additional land uses include a mix of residential, commercial and industrial uses. The TZC area overlaps portions of two of the City’s five focus areas, which are suited for new growth and development under the GPU: the Grand Avenue Avenue/17th Street Focus Area and the West Santa Ana Boulevard Focus Area.

The Grand Avenue Avenue/17th Street Focus Area is primarily business oriented with office and commercial storefronts and large apartment complexes. The West Santa Ana Boulevard Focus Area is characterized as a mix of residential, commercial and industrial.

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The Initial Study/Notice of Preparation of the DEIR (Appendix A) concluded certain topics to be “Effects Not Found to Be Significant” according to Section 15128 of the CEQA Guidelines as having less than significant or no impacts, and therefore were not included in the Final EIR.

Agricultural Resources. The Initial Study concluded that the soils within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area are not candidates for listing as prime farmland, unique farmland, or farmland of statewide importance. In addition, no farmland or agricultural activity exists on or in the vicinity of the Transit Zoning Code, and no portion is under a Williamson Act contract. The Initial Study concluded no that no impacts would occur.

Geology and Soils. The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is located in an area of minimal geologic hazards. Any development within the project area would be designed in accordance with applicable building code requirements, which account for seismic groundshaking. The Initial Study concluded that no and less than significant impacts to would occur.

Mineral Resources. The Initial Study determined that implementation of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not result in the loss of availability of either a known mineral resource of value to the state or region, or a locally important mineral resource recovery site, because no such sites exist within the project area. The Initial Study concluded that implementation of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not result in the loss of City Council 22 – 44 4/1/2025
January 2025 15 Environmental Analysis
availability of a locally important mineral resource delineated on a local general plan, specific plan, or other land use plan.

Because the TZC Final EIR was certified in 2010, certain topics that were later added to the state CEQA Guidelines checklist were not included. The Tribal Cultural Resources topic was added to the CEQA Guidelines in 2017. Although added as a separate topic, the TZC DEIR Cultural Resources section did include an evaluation of Native American resources in Section

4.4.1 – Environmental Setting and Section 4.4.2 – Regulatory Framework. Impact 4.4-1 included MM 4.4-1(a) that required construction monitoring by a tribe.

The TZC EIR included a Global Climate Change topic, which included greenhouse gas emissions. The Greenhouse Gas Emissions topic was added to the CEQA Guidelines in 2018.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions was discussed in Section 4.13.2 – Existing Conditions, Section 4.13.2 – Regulatory Framework, and Section 4.13.4 – Project Impacts and Mitigation Measures.

The Energy and Wildfire topics were added to the CEQA Guidelines in 2018. Although added as separate topics, Energy is discussed within Sections 4.12.12 and 4.12.13 of the Utilities and Service Systems topic of the TZC EIR.

Wildfire (i.e. wildland fires), is discussed within Section 4.5.3 of the Hazards and Hazardous Materials topic of the TZC EIR.

Although these topics were added following certification of the TZC Final EIR, they were discussed and analyzed in the respective sections identified above and do not represent new impacts not previously addressed.

Sections 5.1 through 5.13, below, analyzes the potentially significant impacts that could occur as a result of implementing the proposed project through the adoption of the proposed text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations. Each topical section lists impact statements and mitigation measures from the TZC EIR, and provides an analysis and conclusion. Each TZC EIR conclusion includes a reference to the EIR impact statement (ex., Impact 4.1-3) and includes its associated significance finding.

5.1 AESTHETICS/VISUAL RESOURCES
This section analyzes the effects to aesthetics and visual resources from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? b. Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? c. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings?
d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare, which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area?
e. A project would be considered to create significant shade/shadow impacts if shade/shadow from the project results in a substantial loss of sunlight in a residential area or other sensitive receptor. Other sensitive receptors would include schools and parks.

City Council 22 – 45 4/1/2025
January 2025 16 Environmental Analysis
TZC EIR Conclusions
• Implementation of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not substantially damage scenic resources within a State scenic highway, and no further analysis is necessary in this EIR. (DEIR Section 4.1.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• Development under the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would contribute to the image of, and add to the aesthetic quality of the City. As such, development under the proposed project would not degrade the existing visual quality of the area or obstruct key existing views and/or vistas in the vicinity. (Impact 4.1-1: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• Future development under the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would improve the existing visual character. (Impact 4.1-2: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code, and associated infrastructure improvements would result in new sources of increased daytime glare. (Impact 4.1-3: Less Than Significant with mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code would result in new sources of spillover light. (Impact 4.1-4: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would result in a substantial increase in shade/shadows over sensitive uses. (Impact 4.1-5: Significant and Unavoidable and no feasible mitigation) TZC EIR FEIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.1-1 Proposed new structures shall be designed to maximize the use of textured or other non-reflective exterior surfaces and non-reflective glass. Building materials shall be reviewed by the City of Santa Ana prior to issuance of building permits for each project. (Impact 4.1-3) MM4.1-2 All exterior lighting and advertising (including signage) shall be directed onto the specific location intended for illumination (e.g., parking lots, driveways, and walkways) and shielded away from adjacent properties and public rights-of-way to minimize light spillover onto adjacent areas. (Impact 4.1-4)
MM4.1-3 Prior to issuance of a building permit for a specific development project, the applicant shall submit a lighting plan to the City for review and approval. The plan shall specify the lighting type and placement to ensure that the effects of security and other outdoor lighting are minimized on adjacent uses and do not create spillover effects. The plan shall specifically incorporate the following design features:
o All projects shall incorporate project design features to shield light and/or glare from vehicles entering or exiting parking lots and structures that face sensitive uses (e.g., schools, hospitals, senior housing, or other residential properties) by providing barriers so that light from vehicle headlights would not illuminate off-site sensitive uses. o All projects shall incorporate project design features to provide landscaping, physical barriers, screening, or other buffers to minimize project-generated illumination from entering off-site areas and to prevent glare or interference with vehicular traffic, in accordance with the City’s Municipal Code. (Impact 4.1-4) MM4.1-4 For any proposed structure that would exceed four stories in height, applicants shall submit a site-specific shade/shadow report with renderings representing the level of City Council 22 – 46 4/1/2025
January 2025 17 Environmental Analysis
shade/shadows associated with the proposed development at the following times: 9:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M., 3:00 P.M. PST for the both the winter and summer solstices. An additional rendering for the 5:00 P.M. PST time period shall be prepared for the summer solstice period.

Typically, a variety of criteria are used to determine the significance of a shadow impact, including the following:
o Affected land use (criticality of direct sunlight for the use). o Duration (hours per day in shadow); time of day (critical time period for direct sunlight). o Season (time of year use would be shadowed).
o Extent (percentage of use that would be shadowed).
o Preexisting condition (shadow condition due to existing buildings, landscaping, or other features).
o Type (solid or dappled shadow).

The report shall include any feasible design considerations that would reduce the extent of shadows cast by a proposed structure. The analysis and the project design plans shall be forwarded to the Planning and Building Agency for review and approval. (Impact 4.1-5) Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that no impacts related to State Scenic Highways would result from implementation of the project because no scenic highways are located within the TZC area.

Impacts related to visual and aesthetic quality (Impact 4.1-1) and visual character (Impact 4.1-2) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts related to daytime glare (Impact 4.1-3) and spillover light (Impact 4.1-4) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures. Long-term development related shade and shadows (Impact 4.1-5) were found to be significant and unavoidable and that specific economic, social, or other considerations make mitigation infeasible. Specifically, no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce these impacts.

Implementation of the project through the proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations does not trigger new aesthetic and visual resources impacts requiring preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR because the project modifies the list of land uses and permit types (refer to Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations) including the deletion of industrial land uses; amend nonconforming regulations including the additional of an amortization process; amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses; and delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps; and delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the TZC area. Thus, there are no new land uses being introduced or different development standards that would have aesthetic or visual resource impacts. In particular, the proposed amendments will establish regulations for nonconforming uses, including light and glare. These regulations and standards will cover general standards, enclosed operations, light, glare, and outdoor storage and screening. No direct or indirect glare or heat, whether from floodlights or from high-temperature processes (including combustion or welding or otherwise) shall be visible or felt at the property line. Lighting must be shielded, boxed, or directed at a downward angle so as to minimize the generation of light and glare and to assure that there is no spillover of light and glare that will impact drivers or pedestrians on the public streets, on site activities, and adjoining or nearby properties. No activity shall be permitted which causes excessive light and glare to be transmitted or reflected to surrounding properties at a level resulting in detrimental impacts to adjacent properties. Light sources shall generally not be permitted in landscaped, buffer, or setback areas except for those illuminating pedestrian walkways. Lighting used to illuminate parking areas shall be designed, located, and installed to be shielded and downlit and to reflect away from any nearby residential areas.

City Council 22 – 47 4/1/2025
January 2025 18 Environmental Analysis
Lighting for advertising signs shall not create glare or light which extends to surrounding properties.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed regulations will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated, which will result in a beneficial impact to aesthetics and visual resources. Mitigation measures MM4.1-1 through MM4.1-4 would continue to apply. Therefore, the project does not trigger new aesthetics impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. There would be no new or more significant impacts to aesthetics and visual resources.

5.2 AIR QUALITY
This section analyzes the effects to air quality from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? b. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation?
c. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the proposed project region is in non-attainment under an applicable federal or State ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)?
d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations? e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people? TZC EIR Conclusions
• The project would not create substantial objectionable odors. (Impact 4.2-1: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• The project would not create short-term quantities of criteria pollutants above the significance thresholds published by SCAQMD. (Impact 4.2-2: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Operation of the project would increase local traffic volumes, but would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial localized carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations. (Impact 4.2-3: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • The anticipated population increase of 12,225 new residents as a result of the long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code is consistent with the SCAG growth projections for Santa Ana and, therefore, would not conflict with or obstruct implementation of the Air Quality Management Plan. (Impact 4.2-4: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• Construction activities associated with the construction of individual projects within the Transit Zoning Code area, including the Developer project, would contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation for criteria air pollutants. (Impact 4.2-5:

Significant and Unavoidable with mitigation)
City Council 22 – 48 4/1/2025
January 2025 19 Environmental Analysis
• Operation of the proposed project would exceed South Coast Air Quality Management District standards for VOC, NOX, CO, and PM10 and would result in a projected air quality violation. (Impact 4.2-6: Significant and Unavoidable and no feasible mitigation) • Construction and operation of the proposed project would result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of criteria pollutants for which the proposed project region is in nonattainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard. (Impact

MM4.2-11 Project applicants shall require by contract specifications that construction operations rely on the electricity infrastructure surrounding the construction site rather than electrical generators powered by internal combustion engines to the extent feasible. Contract specifications shall be included in project construction documents, which shall be reviewed by the City of Santa Ana prior to issuance of a grading permit. (Impact 4.2-5) MM4.2-12 As required by South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 403—Fugitive Dust, all construction activities that are capable of generating fugitive dust are required to implement dust control measures during each phase of project development to reduce the amount of particulate matter entrained in the ambient air. These measures include the following:
o Application of soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas. o Quick replacement of ground cover in disturbed areas. o Watering of exposed surfaces three times daily.
o Watering of all unpaved haul roads three times daily. o Covering all stock piles with tarp.
o Reduction of vehicle speed on unpaved roads.

o Install wheel washers where vehicles enter and exit unpaved roads onto paved roads to wash off trucks and any equipment leaving the site each trip. (Impact 4.2-5) MM4.2-13 The developer shall require by contract specifications that construction-related equipment, including heavy-duty equipment, motor vehicles, and portable equipment, shall be turned off when not in use for more than 30 minutes. Diesel-fueled commercial motor vehicles with gross vehicular weight ratings of greater than 10,000 pounds shall be turned off when not in use for more than 5 minutes. Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be approved by the City of Santa Ana. (Impact 4.2-5) MM 4.2-14 The developer shall require by contract specifications that construction parking be configured to minimize traffic interference during the construction period and, therefore, reduce idling of traffic. Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be approved by the City of Santa Ana.

In addition, the notification will include the identification and contact number for a community liaison and designated construction manager that would be available on site to monitor construction activities. The construction manager shall be responsible for complying with all project requirements related to PM10 generation. The construction manager will be located at the on-site construction office during construction hours for the duration of all construction activities. Contract information for the community liaison and construction manager will be located at the construction office, City Hall, the police department, and a sign on site. (Impact 4.2-5) MM4.2-18 The developer shall require by contract specifications that the architectural coating (paint and primer) products used would have a VOC rating of 125 grams per liter or less.

Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be reviewed and approved by the City of Santa Ana. (Impact 4.2-5) MM4.2-19 The developer shall require by contract specifications that materials that do not require painting be used during construction to the extent feasible. Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be reviewed and approved by the City of Santa Ana. (Impact 4.2-5)
MM4.2-20 The developer shall require by contract specifications that pre-painted construction materials be used to the extent feasible. Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be reviewed and approved by the City of Santa Ana. (Impact 4.2-5)
MM4.2-21 As individual components of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) are implemented, an air quality impact analyses will be completed to determine their independent significance levels. Mitigation is to be incorporated at the individual component level to bring the individual components to less than significant on a site-by-site basis. (Impact 4.2-6) MM4.2-22 Prior to issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall demonstrate that the design of the proposed buildings or structures exceeds current Title 24 requirements (Title 24, Part 6 of the California Code of Regulations; The Energy Commission adopted the 2008 Standards on April 23, 2008, and the Building Standards Commission approved them for publication on September 11, 2008. The 2008 Residential Compliance Manual was adopted by the Commission on December 17, 2008, and the 2008 Non-residential Compliance Manual was adopted January 14, 2009.Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Non Residential Buildings, as amended November 1, 2005; Cool Roof Coatings performance standards as amended September 11, 2006) by a minimum of 20 percent, subject to review by the County Building Official. Documentation of compliance with this measure shall be provided to the Planning Department and Building Official for review and approval prior to issuance of the permit. Installation of the identified design features or equipment will be confirmed by the County Building Official prior to certificate of occupancy. Any combination of the following design features may be used to fulfill this mitigation provided that the total increase in efficiency meets or exceeds 20 percent:
o Increase in insulation such that heat transfer and thermal bridging is minimized o Limit air leakage through the structure or within the heating and cooling distribution system to minimize energy consumption

(Impact 4.2-6)
MM4.2-28 All commercial/industrial/common area irrigation areas shall be capable of being operated by a computerized irrigation system which includes an onsite weather station/ET gage capable of reading current weather data and making automatic adjustments to independent run times for each irrigation valve based on changes in temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, rain, and wind. In addition, the computerized irrigation system shall be equipped with flow-sensing capabilities, thus automatically shutting down the irrigation system in the event of a mainline break or broken head. These features will assist in conserving water, eliminating the potential of slope failure due to mainline breaks, and eliminating over-watering and flooding due to pipe and/or head breaks. (Impact 4.2-6)
MM4.2-29 Landscape designers shall ensure that Project landscaping of commercial/industrial/common areas uses drought-tolerant and smog-tolerant trees, shrubs, and groundcover to ensure long-term viability and conserve water and energy. (Impact 4.2-6) MM4.2-30 Landscape designers shall ensure that the landscape plan includes drought resistant trees, shrubs, and groundcover within the parking lot and perimeter. (Impact 4.2-6) City Council 22 – 52 4/1/2025

MM4.2-31 Project designers shall ensure that design features incorporate light-colored roofing materials that will deflect heat away from the building and conserve energy. (Impact 4.2-6) MM4.2-32 The Project designers shall ensure that designs include all illumination elements to have controls to allow selective use as an energy conservation measure. (Impact 4.2-6) MM4.2-33 Prior to issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall demonstrate that measures have been included to promote ride sharing programs such as, but not necessarily including, publishing ride sharing information for all of the tenants, designating a certain percentage of parking spaces for ride sharing vehicles, designating adequate passenger loading and unloading and waiting areas for ride sharing vehicles, and providing a website or message board for coordinating rides. Documentation of compliance with this measure shall be provided to the City Building Official for review and approval. Installation of the identified design features or equipment will be confirmed by the City Building Official prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy. (Impact 4.2-6)

(Impact 4.2-6)
MM4.2-2 through MM4.2-29 would also apply to this impact. (Impact 4.2-7) Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to increased local traffic volumes (Impact 5.2-3) and SCAG growth projections (Impact 4.2-4) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts related to objectionable odors (Impact 4.2-1), criteria pollutants (Impact 4.2- 2), contribute to an air quality violation (Impact 4.2-5) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures. Impacts related to exceeding criteria pollutants during operations (Impact 4.2-6) and construction (Impact 4.2-7) were significant and unavoidable, and that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible additional mitigation.

Specifically, no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce these impacts.

The proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would not require preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR because the project modifies the list of land uses and permit types including the deletion of industrial land uses; amend nonconforming regulations including the additional of an amortization process; amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses; and delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps; and delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the TZC area. Thus, there are no new land uses being introduced that would have air quality impacts. The proposed amendments will introduce new regulations for nonconforming industrial use that would discontinue City Council 22 – 53 4/1/2025
January 2025 24 Environmental Analysis
nonconforming noxious uses, establish screening walls, eliminate vehicle servicing on Sundays.

These regulations would reduce dust and lessen air quality emissions. No land use shall generate or cause any visible dust, gases, or smoke to be emitted into the atmosphere. Uses, activities, and processes shall not operate in a manner that emits dust, fumes, odors, smoke, or particulate matter, unless authorized under Federal, State, or local law. Sources of air emissions shall comply with all rules established by the Environmental Protection Agency (Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40), the California Air Resources Board, and the South Coast Air Quality Management District. These regulations will have a beneficial impact to air quality.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated, which will result in a beneficial impact to air quality.

Mitigation measures MM4.2-1 through MM4.2-36 would continue to apply. Therefore, the project does not trigger new air quality impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. There would be no new or more severe significant impacts to air quality.

5.3 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
This section analyzes the effects to biological resources from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service?
b. Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? c. Have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means?
d. Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites?
e. Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance?
f. Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan? TZC EIR Conclusions
• No endangered, rare, threatened, or special status plant species (or associated habitats) or wildlife species designated by the USFWS, CDFG, or CNPS are known to occur or expected to occur within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area. (DEIR Section 4.3.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• No riparian habitat or other sensitive natural communities are located in these areas. (DEIR Section 4.3.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
City Council 22 – 54 4/1/2025
January 2025 25 Environmental Analysis
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is not in proximity to, nor does it contain, wetland habitat or a blueline stream. (DEIR Section 4.3.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) is surrounded by urban uses on all four sides, including two highways, and, therefore, does not function as a wildlife movement corridor. (DEIR Section 4.3.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • Implementation of the project would not conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources. (DEIR Section 4.3.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • No conflict with an adopted habitat conservation plan, Orange County NCCP/HCP or other local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan would occur, and there would be no impact. (DEIR Section 4.3.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code would not result in a potential reduction in nesting opportunities for resident and migratory avian species of special concern. (Impact 4.3-1: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.3-1 To ensure that avian species of concern, protected migratory species (e.g., MBTA), or raptors species are not injured or disturbed by construction in the vicinity of nesting habitat, the project applicant shall implement the following measures:

1. Tree removal shall be restricted to the period between August 30 and February 15, to the extent feasible, to avoid the breeding season of any migratory species that could be using the area, and to discourage nesting in the vicinity of an upcoming construction area. If it is not feasible to remove trees outside this window then, prior to the beginning of mass grading, including grading for major infrastructure improvements, during the period between February 15 and August 30, all trees within 250 feet of any grading or earthmoving activity shall be surveyed for active nests by a qualified biologist no more than 30 days prior to disturbance. If active nests are found, and the site is within 250 feet of potential construction activity, a temporary fence shall be erected, where appropriate, around the tree(s) at a distance of up to 250 feet, depending on the species, from the edge of the canopy to prevent construction disturbance and intrusions on the nest area.

The appropriate buffer shall be determined in consultation with the City of Santa Ana Park Naturalist or a designee.

2. No construction vehicles shall be permitted within restricted areas (i.e., protection zones), unless directly related to the management or protection of the legally protected species.

3. If a legally protected species nest is located in a tree designated for removal, the removal shall be deferred until after August 30, or until the adults and young of the year are no longer dependent on the nest site as determined by a qualified biologist. (Impact

4.3-1)
Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to endangered, rare, threatened, or special status plant species or associated habitats or wildlife species, riparian habitat and sensitive natural communities, wetlands or blue line streams, wildlife movement corridors, habitat conservation plans, and biological resource policies would not have any impacts. Impacts to avian species were less than significant with implementation of the mitigation measures.

City Council 22 – 55 4/1/2025
January 2025 26 Environmental Analysis
The proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would not require preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR because the TZC area is intended to be developed for urban uses and located in an area that is completely developed for urban uses. Because TZC area is a heavily disturbed and graded area consisting of industrial and residential uses, and the project does not introduce any new types of land use, and instead removes the industrial overlay zone, there will be no impacts to biological resources.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed regulations will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated, which will result in a beneficial impact to biological resources. The project does not trigger new biological resource impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. Mitigation measure MM4.3-1 would continue to apply. There would be no new or more significant impacts to biological resources.

5.4 CULTURAL RESOURCES
This section analyzes the effects to cultural resources and tribal cultural resources from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in §15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines?
b. Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to §15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines?
c. Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or unique geologic feature?
d. Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of dedicated cemeteries? TZC EIR Conclusions
• Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code could cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource or disturb human remains. (Impact 4.4-1: Less Than Significant with mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code has the potential to directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or unique geologic feature. (Impact 4.4-2: Less Than Significant with mitigation) • The adoption of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would result in substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines. (Impact 4.4-3: Significant and Unavoidable and no feasible mitigation)
TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.4-1(a) Prior to any earth-disturbing activities (e.g., excavation, trenching, grading) that could encounter undisturbed soils, the project applicant shall retain an archaeologist who meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards for Archaeology to determine if the project could result in a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines or disturb human remains. The investigation shall include, as determined appropriate by the archaeologist and the City Council 22 – 56 4/1/2025
January 2025 27 Environmental Analysis
City of Santa Ana, an updated records search of the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS), updated Native American consultation, and a pedestrian survey of the area proposed for development. The results of the investigation shall be documented in a technical report or memorandum that identifies and evaluates any archaeological resources within the development area and includes recommendations and methods for eliminating or avoiding impacts on archaeological resources or human remains. The measures shall include, as appropriate, subsurface testing of archaeological resources and/or construction monitoring by a qualified professional and, if necessary, appropriate Native American monitors identified by the applicable tribe (e.g., the Gabrieliño Tongva Nation) and/or the Native American Heritage Commission. The methods shall also include procedures for the unanticipated discovery of human remains, which shall be in accordance with Section 5097.98 of the State Public Resources Code and Section 7050.5 of California’s Health and Safety Code. The technical report or memorandum shall be submitted to the City of Santa Ana for approval. As determined necessary by the City, environmental documentation (e.g., CEQA documentation) prepared for future development within the project site shall reference or incorporate the findings and recommendations of the technical report or memorandum. The project applicant shall be responsible for implementing methods for eliminating or avoiding impacts on archaeological resources identified in the technical report or memorandum. Projects that would not encounter undisturbed soils and would therefore not be required to retain an archaeologist shall demonstrate non-disturbance to the City through the appropriate construction plans or geotechnical studies prior to any earth-disturbing activities.

Projects that would include any earth disturbance (disturbed or undisturbed soils) shall comply with MM4.4-2(b). (Impact 4.4-1)
MM4.4-1(b) If evidence of an archaeological site or other suspected historical resource as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5, including darkened soil representing past human activity (“midden”), that could conceal material remains (e.g., worked stone, fired clay vessels, faunal bone, hearths, storage pits, or burials) are discovered during any project-related earthdisturbing activities (including projects that would not encounter undisturbed soils), all earthdisturbing activity within 100 feet of the find shall be halted and the City of Santa Ana shall be notified. The project applicant shall retain an archaeologist who meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards for Archaeology to assess the significance of the find. Impacts to any significant resources shall be mitigated to a less-than-significant level through data recovery or other methods determined adequate by the archaeologist and that are consistent with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Archaeological Documentation. Any identified cultural resources shall be recorded on the appropriate DPR 523 (A-L) form and filed with the SCCIC. (Impact 4.4-1)
MM4.4-2(a) Prior to any earth-disturbing activities (e.g., excavation, trenching, grading) that could encounter undisturbed soils, the project applicant shall retain a professional paleontologist to determine if the project could directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature. The investigation shall include, as determined appropriate by the paleontologist and the City of Santa Ana, a paleontology records check and a pedestrian survey of the area proposed for development. The results of the investigation shall be documented in a technical report or memorandum that identifies the paleontological sensitivity of the development area and includes recommendations and methods for eliminating or avoiding impacts on paleontological resources or unique geologic features. The technical report or memorandum shall be submitted to the City for approval. As determined necessary by the City, environmental documentation (e.g., CEQA documentation) prepared for future development within the project site shall reference or incorporate the findings and recommendations of the technical report or memorandum. The project applicant shall be responsible for implementing methods for eliminating or avoiding impacts on paleontological resources or unique geologic features identified in the technical report or memorandum.

Projects that would not encounter undisturbed soils and would therefore not be required to City Council 22 – 57 4/1/2025
January 2025 28 Environmental Analysis
retain a paleontologist shall demonstrate non-disturbance to the City through the appropriate construction plans or geotechnical studies prior to any earth-disturbing activities. Projects that would include any earth disturbance (disturbed or undisturbed soils) shall comply with MM4.4- 3(b). (Impact 4.4-2)
MM4.4-2(b) Should paleontological resources (i.e., fossil remains) be identified at a particular site during project construction, the construction foreman shall cease construction within 100 feet of the find until a qualified professional can provide an evaluation. Mitigation of resource impacts shall be implemented and funded by the project applicant and shall be conducted as follows:

1. Identify and evaluate paleontological resources by intense field survey where impacts are considered high

2. Assess effects on identified sites
3 Consult with the institutional/academic paleontologists conducting research investigations within the geological formations that are slated to be impacted

4. Obtain comments from the researchers

5. Comply with researchers’ recommendations to address any significant adverse effects where determined by the City to be feasible
In considering any suggested mitigation proposed by the consulting paleontologist, the City of Santa Ana staff shall determine whether avoidance is necessary and feasible in light of factors such as the nature of the find, project design, costs, applicable policies and land use assumptions, and other considerations. If avoidance is unnecessary or infeasible, other appropriate measures (e.g., data recovery) shall be instituted. Work may proceed on other parts of the project site while mitigation for paleontological resources is carried out. (Impact 4.4-2) MM4.4-3 Prior to development activities that would demolish or otherwise physically affect buildings or structures 50 years old or older or affect their historic setting, the project applicant shall retain a cultural resource professional who meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards for Architectural History to determine if the project would cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines. The investigation shall include, as determined appropriate by the cultural resource professional and the City of Santa Ana, the appropriate archival research, including, if necessary, an updated records search of the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) and a pedestrian survey of the proposed development area to determine if any significant historic-period resources would be adversely affected by the proposed development.

The results of the investigation shall be documented in a technical report or memorandum that identifies and evaluates any historical resources within the development area and includes recommendations and methods for eliminating or reducing impacts on historical resources. The technical report or memorandum shall be submitted to the City Santa Ana for approval. As determined necessary by the City, environmental documentation (e.g., CEQA documentation) prepared for future development within the project site shall reference or incorporate the findings and recommendations of the technical report or memorandum. The project applicant shall be responsible for implementing methods for eliminating or reducing impacts on historical resources identified in the technical report or memorandum. Such methods could include, but not be limited to, written and photographic recordation of the resource in accordance with the level of Historic American Building Survey (HABS) documentation that is appropriate to the significance (local, state, national) of the resource. (Impact 4.4-3) Project Analysis and Conclusion
City Council 22 – 58 4/1/2025
January 2025 29 Environmental Analysis
The City determined that impacts related to archaeological resources (Impact 4.4-1) unique paleontological resources (Impact 4.4-2), and disturbing human remains were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures. Impacts related to historical resources (Impact 4.4-3) were found to be significant and unavoidable and that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible additional mitigation. Specifically, no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce these impacts.

The TZC EIR states that there are 80 designated historic properties that are listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties, five that are listed on the California Points of Historical Interest, and one that is listed on the California Historical Landmarks within and adjacent to the TZC area.

The TZC area has already been subject to extensive disruption from previous development and may contain artificial fill materials. The proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would not require preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR because specific development projects are neither included nor required, nor would the project introduce new land uses that would have impact to cultural or tribal cultural resources that could otherwise make the long-term significant and unavoidable historical resource impacts more severe.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated. Mitigation measures MM4.4-1(a), MM4.4-1(b), MM4.4- 2(a), MM4.2(b), and MM4.4-3 would continue to apply. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated, which will result in a beneficial impact to cultural resources. Therefore, the project does not trigger new cultural or tribal cultural resource impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR.

There would be no new or more severe significant impacts to cultural and tribal cultural resources.

5.5 HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
This section analyzes the effects to hazards and hazardous materials from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials?
b. Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment?
c. Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? d. Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment?
e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? City Council 22 – 59 4/1/2025
January 2025 30 Environmental Analysis
f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? g. Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan?
h. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• A private airstrip/heliport is not known to be located within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area, nor is the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area located in close proximity to a private airstrip/heliport. (DEIR Section 4.5.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is located in a dense urban environment and is surrounded by existing development. There are no wildland areas, nor wildland interface areas located in the vicinity. Consequently, no wildland fires would affect, or be affected by, implementation of the proposed Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B). (DEIR Section 4.5.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • Long-term cumulative development occurring pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code could involve the transportation, use, storage, and/or disposal of hazardous materials, such as diesel exhaust. (Impact 4.5-1: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Construction activities associated with implementation of the proposed Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would result in the release of hazardous materials to the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions. (Impact 4.5- 2: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Construction activities associated with the implementation of the Transit Zoning Code would result in the handling of hazardous materials, substances, or waste within onequarter mile of an existing school. (Impact 4.5-3: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) includes sites which are included on a list of hazardous materials sites and as a result, would create a significant hazard to the public or environment. (Impact 4.5-4: Less Than Significant with mitigation) • Construction activities associated with the implementation of the Transit Zoning Code could result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area. (Impact

4.5-5: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• The Transit Zoning Code could impair the implementation of, or physically interfere with, an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan resulting in a significant impact. (Impact 4.5-6: Less Than Significant with mitigation) TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.5-1 When sites that are listed in the EDR Report initiate project development, the project applicant shall prepare a Phase I ESA for the proposed site. The Phase I ESA shall be prepared in accordance with ASTM E-1527-05 “Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments:

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process” (November 1, 2006). The purpose of a Phase I ESA is to identify environmental conditions at a proposed project site that may suggest environmental contamination. The Phase I ESA report shall be prepared by a CA EPA City Council 22 – 60 4/1/2025
January 2025 31 Environmental Analysis
Registered Environmental Assessor or similarly qualified individual prior to initiating any construction activities at the site.

If recommended in the Phase I ESA, the project sponsor shall undertake (or require the responsible party to undertake) a Phase II ESA soil sampling plan; or if any environmental contamination is identified by the Phase I ESA, the project sponsor shall implement (or require the responsible party to implement) the recommendations of the report to further investigate and to remove any soil contamination. (Impact 4.5-2)
MM4.5-2 In the event that previously unknown or unidentified soil and/or groundwater contamination that could present a threat to human health or the environment is encountered during construction in the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area, construction activities in the immediate vicinity of the contamination shall cease immediately. If contamination is encountered, a Risk Management Plan shall be prepared and implemented that (1) identifies the contaminants of concern and the potential risk each contaminant would pose to human health and the environment during construction and post-development and (2) describes measures to be taken to protect workers, and the public from exposure to potential site hazards.

Such measures could include a range of options, including, but not limited to, physical site controls during construction, remediation, long-term monitoring, post-development maintenance or access limitations, or some combination thereof. Depending on the nature of contamination, if any, appropriate agencies shall be notified (e.g., Santa Ana Fire Department). If needed, a Site Health and Safety Plan that meets Occupational Safety and Health Administration requirements shall be prepared and in place prior to commencement of work in any contaminated area. (Impact 4.5-2)
MM4.5-3 Prior to the demolition of structures that were constructed before 1980, a thorough investigation shall be completed to determine if asbestos, lead, or PCBs exist on the site. All demolition that could result in the release of lead and/or asbestos must be conducted according to Cal/OSHA standards. (Impact 4.5-2)
MM4.5-4 For development of structures that exceed 200 feet in height above ground level at a development site, applicants shall file a Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration with the FAA (FAA Form 7460-1). Following the FAA’s aeronautical evaluation of the project, projects must comply with conditions of approval imposed or recommended by the FAA. Subsequent to the FAA findings, the project shall be reviewed by the ALUC for consistency analysis. (Impact

4.5-5)
MM4.5-5 Prior to initiation of construction activities, any development within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) Area shall have a completed traffic control plan, prepared by the project proponent that will be implemented during construction activities. This may include, but is not limited to, the maintenance of at least one unobstructed lane in both directions on surrounding roadways. At any time if only a single lane is available, the developer shall provide a temporary traffic signal, signal carriers (i.e., flagpersons), or other appropriate traffic controls to allow travel in both directions. If construction activities require the complete closure of a roadway segment, the developer shall provide appropriate signage indicating alternative routes. (Impact 4.5-6)
MM4.5-6 The City Public Works Department shall consult with the Santa Ana Police Department and the Santa Ana Fire Department to disclose temporary closures and alternative travel routes in order to ensure adequate access for emergency vehicles when construction of future projects would result in temporary land or roadway closures. (Impact 4.5-6) MM4.5-7 The Santa Ana Fire Department, in consultation with other applicable City Departments (e.g., Police), shall update their Emergency Preparedness Plan prior to occupancy City Council 22 – 61 4/1/2025
January 2025 32 Environmental Analysis
of the first project developed under the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B), to address the potential for the accidental release of hazardous materials that may be used, stored, and/or transported in association with operation of project implementation. (Impact 4.5-6) MM4.5-8 Project applicants shall submit evacuation plans on a project by project basis that shall be reviewed and approved by the City Police and Fire Departments. (Impact 4.5-6) Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to people residing or working in the vicinity of a private airstrip/heliport and wildland areas would have no impact (DEIR Section 4.5.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact). Impacts related to transportation, storage and disposal of hazardous materials (Impact 4.5-1) and handling of hazardous materials near a school (Impact 4.5-3) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts related to reasonably upset of hazardous materials into the environment (Impact 4.5-2), hazardous materials sites (Impact 4.5-4), construction safety hazards for people or residing in the TZC area (Impact 4.5-5) and interference with an adopted emergency response plan (Impact 4.5-6) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures.

The proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would not require preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR because specific development projects are neither included nor required. The new regulations would require that no material or waste shall be deposited upon a subject parcel in such form or manner that it may be transferred off the parcel by natural causes or forces and that all materials or wastes which might cause fumes or dust, or which constitute a fire hazard, or which may be edible by or otherwise be attractive to rodents or insects shall be stored outdoors only in closed containers. Land or buildings shall not be used or occupied in any manner so as to create any fire, explosive or other hazard. All activities involving the use or storage of combustible, explosive, caustic, or otherwise hazardous materials shall comply with all applicable local, State, and Federal safety standards and shall be provided with adequate safety devices against the hazard of fire and explosion, and adequate firefighting and fire suppression equipment in compliance with City of Santa Ana regulations. The burning of waste materials in open fires without written approval of the Fire Department is prohibited. No activities shall be permitted which emit dangerous radioactivity at any point nor shall electrical disturbances which adversely affect the operation of any equipment, other than that of the creator of such disturbances, be allowed. No use, activity or process shall cause electromagnetic interference with normal radio and television reception, or with the function of other electronic equipment beyond the property line of the site in which it is situated. All uses, activities and processes shall comply with applicable Federal Communications Commission regulations.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

Mitigation measures MM4.5-1 through MM4.5-8 would continue to apply. Therefore, the project does not trigger new hazards and hazardous materials impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts to hazards and hazardous materials are not exacerbated. There would be no new or more severe significant impacts to hazards and hazardous materials.

5.6 HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY
This section analyzes the effects to hydrology and water quality from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

City Council 22 – 62 4/1/2025
January 2025 33 Environmental Analysis
Would the project:
a. Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? b. Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level that would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)?
c. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of stream or river, in a manner that would result in substantial erosion or siltation on or off site?
d. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner that would result in flooding on or off site? e. Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff?
g. Otherwise substantially degrade water quality?
h. Place housing within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? i. Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures, which would impede or redirect flood flows?
j. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam? k. Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map, and is not within the 100-year or 500- year flood hazard area. (DEIR Section 4.6.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is not within the 100-year flood hazard area, (DEIR Section 4.6.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is not located in the flood inundation area of the Prado Dam or the Santiago Dam. (DEIR Section 4.6.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• The proposed Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not expose people to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving inundation by a seiche, tsunami, or mudflow because the project site is not located near a coastal area, large water body, or unstable and exposed hills or slopes. (DEIR Section 4.6.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• Implementation of the Transit Zoning Code would not violate water quality standards, waste discharge, or otherwise substantially degrade water quality. (Impact 4.6-1: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• The majority of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is already developed and because the project area is not used for groundwater recharge, the operation of future development under the proposed project would not interfere City Council 22 – 63 4/1/2025
January 2025 34 Environmental Analysis
substantially with groundwater recharge. (Impact 4.6-2: Less Than Significant without mitigation with mitigation)
• Development under the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) could alter the existing drainage pattern of the area and potentially result in erosion and siltation. (Impact 4.6-3: Less Than Significant)
• Future development in the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) could alter the existing drainage pattern and potentially result in increased downstream flooding through the addition of impervious surfaces, or exceeding the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems. (Impact 4.6-4: Less Than Significant with mitigation) TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.6-1 In order to comply with the current version of the Drainage Area Master Plan (DAMP), future development projects in the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area shall prepare Storm Drain Plans, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP), and Water Quality Management Plans (WQMP) conforming to the current National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) requirements, prepared by a Licensed Civil Engineer or Environmental Engineer, shall be submitted to the Public Works Agency for review and approval.
a. A SWPPP shall be prepared and updated as needed during the course of construction to satisfy the requirements of each phase of the development. The plan shall incorporate all necessary Best Management Practices (BMPs) and other City requirements to eliminate polluted runoff until all construction work for the project is completed. The SWPPP shall include treatment and disposal of all dewatering operation flows, and for nuisance flows during construction. The SWPPP may include, but would not necessarily be limited to, the following applicable measures:
o Minimum required pavement widths for residential streets needed to comply with all zoning and applicable ordinances
o Use permeable materials for private sidewalks, driveways, parking lots, or interior roadway surfaces
o Reduce the overall imperviousness associated with parking lots by using pervious materials in spillover parking areas
o Direct rooftop runoff to pervious areas and avoid routing rooftop runoff to the roadway or the stormwater conveyance system
o Biofilters including vegetated swales and strips
o Extended/dry detention basins
o Infiltration basin
o Infiltration trenches or vaults
o Catch basin inserts
o Continuous flow deflection/separation systems
o Storm drain inserts
o Media filtration
o Foundation planting
o Catch basin screens
o Normal flow storage/separation systems
o Clarifiers
o Filtration systems
o Primary waste water treatment systems
City Council 22 – 64 4/1/2025
January 2025 35 Environmental Analysis
o Dry Wells
o Cistern
b. A WQMP shall be prepared, maintained, and updated as needed to satisfy the requirements of the adopted NPDES program. The plan shall incorporate water quality measures for all improved phases of the project. (Impact 4.6-1 and Impact 4.6-3) MM4.6-2 Prior to issuance of grading permits for future development projects in the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area, applicants shall submit site-specific Hydrology and Hydraulic Studies to the Public Works Department for review and approval. If existing facilities are not adequate to handle runoff that may be generated by the proposed development, then the applicant shall propose feasible remedies to assure that adequate drainage facilities will be available prior to issuance of occupancy permits. The applicant may propose storm drain improvements to be constructed in order to meet project needs. If necessary storm drain upgrades cannot be implemented prior to issuance of occupancy permits, on site detention facilities or other methods acceptable to the City shall be included with new development projects to ensure that post-construction runoff does not exceed pre-development quantities. (Impact 4.6-4)
MM4.6-3 During the design of individual projects, applicants shall minimize impervious area by incorporating landscaped areas over substantial portions of a proposed project area.

Furthermore, impervious areas shall be directly connected to landscaped areas or bioretention facilities to promote filtration and infiltration of stormwater. (Impact 4.6-4) MM4.6-4 During the design of individual projects, applicants shall control structural source through storm drain stenciling and signage, coverage of trash area to minimize direct precipitation, efficient irrigation to minimize runoff into stormwater conveyance system, slope and channel protection to decrease potentials for erosions of slopes, and use of deep-rooted, drought tolerant plant species for erosion control. (Impact 4.6-4) Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to within a 100-year flood hazard area, flood inundation area, inundation from the Prado Dam, a seiche, tsunami, or mudflow would have no impacts (DEIR Section 4.6-3). Impacts related to interference with groundwater recharge (Impact 4.5-1), alteration to existing drainage patterns (Impact 4.6-3) and increased downstream flooding (Impact 4.6-4) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures.

The proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would not require preparation of specific development projects, introduce new land uses nor increase the intensity the existing uses. The new regulations would require liquid or solid wastes discharged from future development projects be properly treated and would therefore not pollute or contaminate any water courses or groundwater.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

Mitigation measures MM4.6-1 through MM4.6-4 would continue to apply. Therefore, the project does not trigger new hydrology and water quality impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated. Therefore, there would be no new or more severe significant impacts to hydrology and water quality.

5.7 LAND USE
City Council 22 – 65 4/1/2025
January 2025 36 Environmental Analysis
This section analyzes the effects on land use from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Introduce new land uses that would result in conflicts of use? b. Physically divide an established community?
c. Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect.?
d. Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community conservation plan?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area is not located within either a natural community plan or applicable habitat conservation plan. The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area does not contain any critical or sensitive habitat. (DEIR Section 4.6.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact)
• The Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not result in conflicts of use. (Impact 4.7-1: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • The proposed Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not physically divide an established community. (Impact 4.7-2: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • The proposed Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would conflict with the Santa Ana General Plan by adopting standards and land uses not currently allowed within the proposed Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area; however, as part of the proposed project, the General Plan would be amended to incorporate the proposed land uses and development standards. (Impact 4.7-3: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
All impacts were below the level of significance and mitigation measures are not necessary nor recommended.

Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to conflicts with a natural community plan or applicable habitat conservation plan would have no impacts (DEIR Section 4.6.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact). Impacts related to incompatible land uses (Impact 4.7-1), potential to divide an established community (Impact 4.7-2), and conflicts with the Santa Ana General Plan (Impact

4.7-3) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation.

The proposed zoning ordinance amendments are consistent with various goals and policies of the Santa Ana General Plan, as required by Government Code Section 65860, by timely addressing current inconsistencies within an area of the City prioritized for addressing environmental justice and impacts were found to be less than significant. In effect, the amendments are necessary to address numerous policies of the General Plan that the current City Council 22 – 66 4/1/2025
January 2025 37 Environmental Analysis
TZC is found to be inconsistent with, that without such amendments, will continue the path of irreconcilable land use patterns within the TZC area. Specifically, these policies include Policy LU-1.1 (Compatible Uses), Policy LU-2.4 (Cost and Benefit of Development), Policy LU-3.8 (Sensitive Receptors), Policy LU-3.9 (Noxious, Hazardous, Dangerous, and Polluting Uses), Policy LU-3.11 (Air Pollution Buffers), Policy LU-4.3 (Sustainable Land Use Strategies), Policy LU-4.6 (Healthy Living Conditions), Policy CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), Policy EP-1.9 (Avoid Conflict of Uses), Policy EP-3.3 (Mitigate Impacts), Policy CN-1.5 (Sensitive Receptor Decisions), Policy CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), and Policy HE-5.5 (Community Development), which are targeted at correcting past land use planning practices that have placed an unequitable environmental and health burden on certain neighborhoods now termed disadvantaged communities.

The proposed amendments support these goals and policies by:
• Fostering the compatibility between residential and nonresidential land uses within the TZC to enhance livability and promote healthier lifestyles. • Resolving the conflict of industrial land uses and sensitive receptors being in close proximity to each other that pose health hazards by eliminating an overlay zone that promulgated continuation of industrial uses without recourse. • Improving the health of the existing and future residents of the TZC by regulating the operations of noxious, hazardous, dangerous, and polluting uses by giving priority to the discontinuance of those uses.
• Responding to overarching EJ policies to develop and implement land use and zoning strategies to separate existing sensitive uses from heave industrial facilities and emission sources.
• Continuing to support the creation of healthy neighborhoods by addressing land use conflicts and incompatible uses through the elimination of the I-OZ zone and associated industrial land use types from the list of allowable land uses within the TZC.
• Developing and adopting new regulations to address facilities that emit high levels increased pollution near sensitive receptors within EJ (Environmental Justice) area boundaries, which includes areas of the TZC.
• Avoiding potential land use conflicts in the future by prohibiting the location of noxious land uses in proximity to sensitive receptors
• Creating a sustainable land use plan for the area that phases out land uses that are causing a substantial drain on City and other public agency resources in addressing the impacts from irreconcilable land use conflicts in the TZC area.

Additionally, the proposed amendments implement and/or contribute to achieving the following specific action programs of the General Plan, most particularly directly addressing LU3.3 through discontinuing nonconforming industrial uses through amortization:

LU1.1 - Development Code Update. Prepare a comprehensive update to the zoning code to ensure that the City’s zoning regulations align with the General Plan’s goals and policies. Update the Metro East Mixed-Use Overlay District to remove the portion within the 17th Street and Grand Avenue Focus Area. Update the Midtown Specific Plan.

CN1.4 - Health risk criteria. Establish criteria for requiring health risk assessments for existing and new industries, including the type of business, thresholds, and scope of City Council 22 – 67 4/1/2025
January 2025 38 Environmental Analysis
assessment. Review existing and establish new regulation to reduce and avoid increased pollution near sensitive receptors within environmental justice area boundaries.

CN1.7 - Truck idling. Evaluate strategies to reduce truck idling found or reported in areas with sensitive receptors, with a priority placed on environmental justice areas.

CN1.11 - Public education. Augment existing outreach programs to improve public awareness of State, regional and local agencies’ roles and resources to identify, monitor, and address air quality and other environmental hazards in the community.

HE44.A – Fair Housing. Ensure all City programs and activities relating to housing and community development are administered in a manner that affirmatively furthers fair housing.

Implementation of the proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations does not trigger new land use impacts that might otherwise occur with a development project requiring preparation of a supplemental or subsequent EIR.

The new regulations would provide that any nonconforming business that operates in an unlawful manner, including but not limited to, frequent code violations, police calls, or loitering complaints, or is not in good standing with the City, including, but limited to constant service calls or lapses in Business License renewal, will lose its nonconforming status, enabling the City to take corrective action as it deems appropriate, including business license revocation or terminating utility services or connections. For the purposes of this section, “frequent” is defined as more than one violation, call, or complaint per month during any twelve month period, and “constant service calls” is defined as more than one service call per month during any twelve (12) month period.

Thus, the project would not physically divide an established community, or conflict with any land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental impact. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated. Therefore, the project does not trigger new land use impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. There would be no new or more severe significant impacts to land use.

5.8 NOISE
This section analyzes the effects to noise from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Expose persons to or generate noise levels in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b. Expose persons to or generate excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels?
c. Cause a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project?
City Council 22 – 68 4/1/2025
January 2025 39 Environmental Analysis
d. Cause a substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• The project is not located within an airport land use plan or within 2 miles of a public airport or public use airport. (DEIR Section 4.8.3: Effects Found to Have No Impact) • Construction activities associated with the proposed project would generate noise levels that exceed the noise standards established by the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code. (Impact 4.8-1: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Operation of the proposed project could expose noise-sensitive land uses to noise levels that exceed the standards established by the City of Santa Ana General Plan. (Impact

4.8-2: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Operation of the proposed project would not expose sensitive receptors on or off site to excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels, (Impact 4.8-3: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• Occupants of the proposed residential units would not be exposed to potentially significant vibration levels. (Impact 4.8-4: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Physical impact from an increase in ambient noise levels could occur from the construction activities associated with the proposed project, an adverse effect on the nearby residents would not occur. (Impact 4.8-5: Less Than Significant) • No temporary or periodic noise impacts to on- or off-site receptors due to operation of the project. (Impact 4.8-6: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Operation of the proposed project would not generate increased local traffic volumes that would cause a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity. (Impact 4.8-7: Less Than Significant without mitigation)Operation of the Southern California Regional Rail Authority’s (SCRRA) rail line would potentially expose noise-sensitive land uses located within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area to noise levels that exceed the standards established by the City of Santa Ana General Plan. (Impact 4.8-8: Significant and Unavoidable and no feasible mitigation) • Construction activities associated with the proposed project would generate or expose persons or structures to excessive groundborne vibration. (Impact 4.8-9: Significant and Unavoidable and no feasible mitigation)
TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.8-1 All construction activity within the City shall be conducted in accordance with Section 18-314(e) of the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code. (Impact 4.8-1 and Impact 4.8-9) MM4.8-2 Each project applicant shall require by contract specifications that the following construction best management practices (BMPs) be implemented by contractors to reduce construction noise levels:

Ensure that construction equipment is properly muffled according to industry standards and be in good working condition
City Council 22 – 69 4/1/2025
January 2025 40 Environmental Analysis
Place noise-generating construction equipment and locate construction staging areas away from sensitive uses, where feasible
Schedule high noise-producing activities between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. to minimize disruption on sensitive uses
Implement noise attenuation measures, which may include, but are not limited to, temporary noise barriers or noise blankets around stationary construction noise sources Use electric air compressors and similar power tools rather than diesel equipment, where feasible
Construction-related equipment, including heavy-duty equipment, motor vehicles, and portable equipment, shall be turned off when not in use for more than 30 minutes Construction hours, allowable workdays, and the phone number of the job superintendent shall be clearly posted at all construction entrances to allow for surrounding owners and residents to contact the job superintendent. If the City or the job superintendent receives a complaint, the superintendent shall investigate, take appropriate corrective action, and report the action taken to the reporting party.

Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be reviewed by the City prior to issuance of a grading permit. (Impact 4.8-1) MM4.8-3 Each project applicant shall require by contract specifications that construction staging areas along with the operation of earthmoving equipment within the project area would be located as far away from vibration and noise sensitive sites as possible. Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be reviewed by the City prior to issuance of a grading permit. (Impact 4.8-1 and Impact 4.8-9) MM4.8-4 Each project applicant shall require by contract specifications that heavily loaded trucks used during construction would be routed away from residential streets. Contract specifications shall be included in the proposed project construction documents, which shall be reviewed by the City prior to issuance of a grading permit. (Impact 4.8-1 and Impact 4.8-9) MM4.8-5 When residential uses would be located in areas with noise levels in excess of 60 dBA CNEL (either through conversion of use/structure or new construction), the project applicant shall provide noise barriers around private open space areas, including patios and balconies, as necessary. The height and density of the barriers shall be sufficient to reduce the exterior noise levels within private open space areas to a CNEL of 65 dBA or less. (Impact 4.8-2) MM4.8-6 Prior to issuance of building permits, building plans shall specify the STC rating of windows and doors for all residential land uses. Window and door ratings shall be sufficient to reduce the interior noise level to a CNEL of 45 dBA or less, and shall be determined by a qualified acoustical consultant as part of the final engineering design of the project. (Impact 4.8- 2)
MM4.8-7 Each project applicant shall provide proper shielding for all new HVAC systems used by the proposed residential and mixed use buildings to achieve an attenuation of 15 dBA at 50 feet from the equipment. (Impact 4.8-2)
MM4.8-8 The City shall provide a written statement to each applicant for projects located within 400 feet of the SCRRA tracks that shall be provided for each residential unit and resident, notifying them of potential noise and vibration issues associated with the railroad tracks, including the following:

Notice of Disclosure
City Council 22 – 70 4/1/2025
January 2025 41 Environmental Analysis
Each owner’s [or renter’s] interest is subject to the fact that trains operate at different times of the day and night on the railway tracks immediately adjacent to a project site; and that by accepting the conveyance of an interest [or lease agreement] in that project, owner [or renter] accepts all impacts generated by the trains.

Posting of Notice of Disclosure in each residential unit.

Prior to offering the first residential unit for purchase, lease, or rent, the property owner or developer shall post a copy of the Notice of Disclosure in every unit in a conspicuous location. Also, a copy of the Notice of Disclosure shall be included in all materials distributed for the Project, including but not limited to: the prospectus, informational literature, and residential lease and rental agreements. (Impact 4.8-8) Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that no impacts related to the proximity public use airport would not result in impacts would result. Impacts related to exposure of sensitive receptors from excessive groundborne vibration (Impact 4.8-3), potentially significant vibration levels (Impact 4.8-4), ambient noise increase (Impact 4.8-5), periodic noise impacts (Impact 4.8-6), and noise from increased traffic volumes (Impact 4.8-7) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts from noise levels exceeding City noise standards (Impact 4.8-1) and exposure to noise-sensitive land uses (Impact 4.8-2) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures. Impacts causing groundborne vibration and development exposure near the Southern California Regional Rail Authority’s (SCRRA) rail line (Impact 4.8-8) and construction activities from project implementation (Impact 4.8-9) were found to be significant and unavoidable. Specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible additional mitigation. Specifically, no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce these impacts.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

Mitigation measures MM4.8-1 through MM4.8-8 would continue to apply. In addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated. This will result in a beneficial impact. Therefore, the existing less than significant and significant and unavoidable noise impacts would not result in new or different impacts.

5.9 POPULATION, HOUSING AND EMPLOYMENT
This section analyzes the effects to population, housing and employment from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:

City Council 22 – 71 4/1/2025
January 2025 42 Environmental Analysis
a. Induce substantial unplanned population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)?
b. Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere?
c. Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• Implementation of the proposed project would accommodate projected population and housing growth. (Impact 4.9-1: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Construction of development projects pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) could displace existing people or housing. However, this displacement would not necessitate the construction of additional replacement housing elsewhere. (Impact

4.9-2: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
All impacts were below the level of significance and mitigation measures are not necessary nor recommended.

Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to accommodating population and housing growth Impact 4.9-1) and displacement of existing housing (Impact 4.9-2) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

The proposed adoption of the text regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would not require development of housing units. The new regulations would provide architectural standards to any future development that would regulate the manner in which individual parcels and blocks are developed to create diverse and pedestrian-oriented development that would be consistent with the TZC area. In addition, there shall be no increase in the number of dwelling units unless the site on which the structure is located complies with the off-street parking and open space requirements of the SAMC. Therefore, the existing less than significant population, housing and employment impacts would not result in new or different impacts nor would it increase unplanned growth and does not trigger new population and housing impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR.

5.10 PUBLIC SERVICES
This section analyzes the effects to public services and recreational and park facilities from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, or the need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental City Council 22 – 72 4/1/2025
January 2025 43 Environmental Analysis

b. Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, or the need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for police protection?
c. Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, or the need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for schools?
d. Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, or the need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for library services?
e. Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, or the need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for park services?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• Construction of new projects pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would increase the demand for fire protection services, but it would not require the construction of new or physically altered facilities to accommodate the increased demand or maintain acceptable response times. (Impact 4.10-1: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Operation of the proposed project would increase the demand for police services, thereby requiring additional staffing, although it would not require the construction of new or physically altered facilities or personnel to accommodate the increased demand. (Impact 4.10-2: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Construction of new residential units within the project area would generate new students that could require the addition of new classroom facilities, thereby requiring new or physically altered facilities to accommodate additional students in Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) schools. (Impact 4.10-3: Less Than Significant) • Construction of new residential units within the project area would generate new library users that could require the addition of new library facilities. (Impact 4.10-4: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• All properties identified as having new development potential to be built out pursuant to the provisions of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) these new projects would generate a need for new or physically altered park facilities in order to maintain acceptable service ratios. (Impact 4.10-5: Less Than Significant without mitigation) TZC EIR Mitigation Measures

(Impact 4.10-2) MM4.10-3 No developer within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) boundaries shall utilize a frequency of 800 MHz, which is reserved for emergency services. (Impact 4.10-2) MM4.10-4 Individual project developers shall pay school impact fees prior to the issuance of occupancy permits. (Impact 4.10-3)
MM4.10-5 Prior to issuance of a building permit for a residential development project, or change of use from non-residential to residential within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area, project applicants shall pay to the City of Santa Ana the Park Acquisition and Development Fee. (Impact 4.10-5)
Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to the provision of library services (Impact 4.10-4) and recreation park facilities (Impact 4.10-5) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts related to fire services (Impact 4.10-1), Police services (Impact 4.10-2) and generation of new school children (Impact 4.10-3) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

Mitigation measures MM4.10-1 through MM4.10-5 would continue to apply.

5.11 TRANSPORTATION
This section analyzes the effects on transportation from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at intersections)? b. Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? c. Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks? d. Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? City Council 22 – 74 4/1/2025
January 2025 45 Environmental Analysis
e. Result in inadequate emergency access?
f. Result in inadequate parking capacity
g. Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)
TZC EIR Conclusions
• Operation of the proposed project would result in impacts related to neighborhood traffic in the adjacent residential areas to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area. (Impact 4.11-1: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the implementation of the Transit Zoning Code would exceed standards established by the Orange County Transportation Authority within the study area. (Impact 4.11-2: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Development projects constructed pursuant to the standards contained within the Transit Zoning Code would not result in a change in air traffic patterns. (Impact 4.11-3: Less Than Significant) without mitigation
• Development projects constructed pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code would not increase hazards due to a design future or incompatible uses. (Impact 4.11-4: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• Development projects constructed pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code could result in inadequate emergency access. (Impact 4.11-5: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development under the implementation of the Transit Zoning Code would not result in inadequate parking capacity. (Impact 4.11-6: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• The Transit Zoning Code would not conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation. (Impact 4.11-7: Less Than Significant) • Long-term cumulative development under implementation of the Transit Zoning Code would cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system. (Impact 4.11-8: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Long-term cumulative development under implementation of the Transit Zoning Code would result in impacts related to freeway ramps in the vicinity of the Transit Zoning Code area. (Impact 4.11-9: Less Than Significant with mitigation and Significant and Unavoidable due to a public agency (Caltrans) approval other than the City) TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.11-1 The City of Santa Ana shall, during any roadway improvement within the Transit Zoning Code boundaries, evaluate, consider, and implement as appropriate the traffic calming measure(s), including but not limited to the following:
o Curb extensions at local intersections
o Short medians at entries to wide streets
o Traffic circles at oversized intersections
o Speed humps
o Turn restrictions (Impact 4.11-1)
MM4.11-2 As part of the project, the City of Santa Ana and the project sponsors shall work with the transit providers to implement various transit-related measures to improve and expand bus City Council 22 – 75 4/1/2025

system service within the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area. These measures may include, but are not limited to, the following:
o Adding bus stops to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area along existing roadways
o Changing bus service headways to respond to increased demand o Changing bus service destinations to respond to changing demand o Adding local shuttle service for employees and patrons of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area
o The details of bus service improvements shall be determined in coordination with OCTA.

The following recommendations would help encourage public transit patronage for project-related trips:
o Bus Stop Locations—Relocation of existing bus stops and the provision of additional bus stops should be considered to accommodate transit users at convenient locations.
o Days of Operation—The City should work with OCTA to consider changes to route times to serve nighttime and weekend project visitors and employees. o Headway—The City should work w would be appropriate to reduce them Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area.

MM4.11-3 The City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency shall monitor the traffic signals within the Transit Zoning Code study area once every five years to ensure that traffic signal timing is optimized. (Impact 4.11-8)
MM4.11-4 The City of Santa Ana shall institute a program for systematic mitigation of impacts as development proceeds within the Transit Zoning Code to ensure mitigation of the individual improvements. The program shall prescribe the method of participation in the mitigation program by individual projects and guide the timely implementation of the mitigation measures.

The program shall include the following elements:

A funding and improvement program should be established to identify financial resources adequate to construct all identified mitigation measures in a timely basis.

All properties that redevelop within the Transit Zoning Code should participate in the program on a fair share per new development trip basis. The fair share should be based upon the total cost of all identified mitigation measures, divided by the peak hour trip generation increase forecast.

This rate per peak hour trip should be imposed upon the incremental traffic growth for any new development within the Transitioning Code.

The program should raise funds from full development of the Transit Zoning Code to fund all identified mitigation measures.

The program should monitor phasing development of the Transit Zoning Code and defer or eliminate improvements if the densities permitted in the Transit Zoning Code are not occurring.

Program phasing should be monitored through preparation of specific project traffic impact studies for any project that is expected to include more than 100 dwelling units or 100,000 sf of non-residential development. Traffic impact studies should use traffic generation rates that are deemed to be most appropriate for the actual development proposed.

Properties within Santa Ana and within one-half mile of the Transit Zoning Code that redevelop to result in higher traffic generation should also participate in the program to insure equity.

City Council 22 – 76 4/1/2025
January 2025 47 Environmental Analysis
The City may elect to implement appropriate mitigation measures as a condition of approval of the proposed developments, where appropriate. All or part of the costs of these improvements may be considered to be a negotiated credit toward the program, however the program must be administered in a manner that assures that it can fund necessary improvements to maintain adequate level of service at all intersections within this study. If funding of priority improvements cannot be assured, credit for construction of lower priority improvements may not be assured or may be postponed until more program funds are available.

Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to exceeding standards from the Orange County Transportation Authority (Impact 4.111-2), change in air traffic patterns (Impact 4.11-3), hazards due to a design future or incompatible uses (Impact 4.11-4), inadequate emergency access (Impact 4.11-5), inadequate parking capacity (Impact 4.11-6), and alternative transportation (Impact 4.11-7) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts related to neighborhood traffic (Impact 4.11-1) and traffic increases to the existing traffic load (Impact 4.11-8) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures.

Impacts related to development near freeway ramps (Impacts 4.11-9) were found to be significant and unavoidable and that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible additional mitigation. Specifically, no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce these impacts.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

Mitigation measures MM4.11-1 through MM4.11-16 would continue to apply.

5.12 UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS
This section analyzes the effects to utilities and service systems from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Require or result in the construction of new water treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects?
b. Require new or expanded water entitlements and resources if there are not sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and resources? TZC EIR Conclusions
• Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would generate an additional demand for water, but would not require water supplies in excess of existing entitlements and resources or result in the need for new or expanded entitlements. (Impact 4.12-1: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not require or result in the construction of new or expanded water City Council 22 – 78 4/1/2025

(Impact 4.12-2: Less Than Significant)without mitigation • Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the Orange County Sanitation District. (Impact 4.12-3: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) could require the construction of new or expanded wastewater conveyance systems, the construction of which would not cause significant environmental effects. (Impact 4.12-4: Less Than Significant with mitigation)
• Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would not increase wastewater generation such that treatment facilities would be inadequate to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments. (Impact 4.12-5: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code would not generate solid waste that exceeds the permitted capacity of landfills serving the area. (Impact 4.12-6: Less Than Significant without mitigation) • Long-term cumulative development under the implementation of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would comply with all applicable federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste. (Impact 4.12-7: Less Than Significant without mitigation)
• Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) would increase the demand for electricity and gas, but would not require or result in the construction of new energy production or transmission facilities, the construction of which could cause a significant environmental impact.

TZC EIR Mitigation Measures
MM4.12-1 Individual project applicants shall prepare site-specific sewer evaluations, including flow monitoring and modeling, during the project design to determine the adequacy of the existing sewer pipe capacity in the affected project area lines. The evaluation shall be submitted to the City of Santa Ana or OCSD, as appropriate, for review and approval prior to issuance of building permits. Any recommendations made in the site-specific sewer evaluations shall be incorporated into the design of each individual project. (Impact 4.12-4) MM4.12-2 Individual non-residential project applicants are encouraged to apply for Southern California Edison’s “Savings By Design” program. The program is aimed at generating an overall reduction in energy use through design methods and incentive programs by maintaining a 15% or greater exceedance of Title 24. (Impact 4.12-8) MM4.12-3 Individual development projects within the boundaries of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) shall implement energy conservation measures (such as energy-efficient lighting and microprocessor controlled HVAC equipment) to reduce the demand for electricity and natural gas as part of the project design. The energy conservation measures shall be subject to modification as new technologies are developed, or if current technology becomes obsolete, through replacement and shall be reviewed by the Planning and Building Agency prior to issuance of a building permit. (Impact 4.12-8)

and natural gas as part of the project design. The energy conservation measures shall be subject to modification as new technologies are developed, or if current technology becomes obsolete, through replacement and shall be reviewed by the Planning and Building Agency prior to issuance of a building permit. (Impact 4.12-8)
Project Analysis and Conclusion
The City determined that impacts related to additional water demand (Impact 4.12-1), expanded water treatment facilities (Impact 4.12-2), exceed wastewater treatment requirements (Impact

4.12-3), increase wastewater generation (Impact 4.12-5), generate solid waste exceeding permitted capacity (Impact 4.12-6), and compliance with applicable federal, state, and local solid waste regulations (Impact 4.12-7) were below the level of significance and did not require mitigation. Impacts related to new or expanded wastewater conveyance systems (Impact 4.12- 4) and an increased demand for electricity and gas (Impact 4.12-8) were less than significant with the implementation of mitigation measures.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project.

Mitigation measures MM4.12-1 through MM4.12-4 would continue to apply.

The new regulations identified in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would provide any nonconforming business that operates in an unlawful manner, including but not limited to, frequent code violations, police calls, or loitering complaints, or is not in good standing with the City, including, but limited to constant service calls or lapses in Business License renewal, will lose its nonconforming status, enabling the City to take corrective action as it deems appropriate, including business license revocation or terminating utility services or connections. Also, in addition, compliance with the existing regulations and proposed amendments will assure that potential impacts are not exacerbated which will result in a beneficial impact to utilities and service systems. Therefore, the existing less than significant utilities and service systems impacts would not result in new or different impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR.

5.13 GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE
This section analyzes the effects to global climate change from implementing the proposed zoning code regulations.

Would the project:
a. Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment?
b. Generate greenhouse gas emissions, conflict with any applicable plan, policy or regulation of an agency adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gas?
TZC EIR Conclusions
• Long-term cumulative development pursuant to the Transit Zoning Code at full build-out would result in significant localized air quality impacts for operational level emissions. As a whole, this impact is significant for operational emissions due to the size of the Transit Zoning Code (SD 84A and SD 84B) area. (Impact 4.13-1: Significant and Unavoidable and no feasible mitigation)

The City determined that long-term development related to localized air quality impacts from operational emissions (Impact 4.13-1) and operational emissions due to the size of the TZC area with the potential to conflict with AB 32 (Impact 4.13-2) were found to be significant and unavoidable and that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible additional mitigation. Specifically, no additional feasible mitigation measures exist that would avoid or substantially reduce these impacts.

Any future development within the TZC area requiring discretionary action would continue to be subject to a project-level CEQA review at the time an application is filed for an individual project Mitigation measures MM 4.13-1 through MM4.13.24 would continue to apply.

City Council 22 – 83 4/1/2025
January 2025 54 Environmental Analysis
The new regulations in Table 1 – Current and Proposed Text Regulations would provide that no land use shall generate or cause any visible dust, gases, or smoke to be emitted into the atmosphere and that uses, activities, and processes shall not operate in a manner that emits dust, fumes, odors, smoke, or particulate matter, unless authorized under Federal, State, or local law. This will result in a beneficial impact to climate change/greenhouse gas emissions.

Therefore, the existing significant and unavoidable global climate change impacts would not result in new or different impacts requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR.

5.14 MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE
Would the project:
a. Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory?
b. Does the project have potential to achieve short-term environmental goals to the disadvantage of long-term environmental goals?
c. Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? d. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
As detailed herein, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR is not appropriate for the project because none of the criteria permitting such a document under State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 are met.

Project implementation does not include nor require implementation of specific development projects. The majority of the City is urbanized, with residential and nonresidential development, and mobility and public facilities all contributing to Santa Ana’s existing built environment.

The proposed text amendments to SAMC Sections 41-2001, 41-2001.5, 41-2002, 41-2004, 41- 2005, 41-2006, 41-2008, 41-2009, and 41-2008 would merely update to clarify that the regulations apply to existing uses, further limit some rehabilitation of existing buildings and structures, clarify the effects of amendments to the TZC, further limit certain existing operations to ensure greater compatibility between residential and non-residential land uses, and to establish regulations for operation of any existing, legally established, nonconforming industrial uses. Section 41-2001.5 is updated to encompass new SAMC Section 21-2009, which establishes regulations for operation of any existing, legally established, nonconforming industrial use. Section 41-2004 deletes the Overlay I-OZ zone from the text and map.

Implementation of these SAMC amendments would not require implementation of any specific developments or direct physical changes to the environment, and therefore would not be in conflict with the GPU and no intensification of land uses would result.

The City of Santa Ana, which includes the TZC area, is not within a NCCP/HCP area, and therefore would not conflict with an adopted NCCP/HCP plan. No direct or indirect substantial adverse effects on human beings would occur.

City Council 22 – 84 4/1/2025
January 2025 55 Environmental Analysis

5.15 CONCLUSION
This project proposes amendments to the Transit Zoning Code (SD-84) by way of ZOA No. 2024-02 and AA No. 2024-03. These proposed amendments would modify the list of land uses and permit types including the deletion of industrial land uses; amend nonconforming regulations including the addition of an amortization process; amend and add operational standards for allowed uses and nonconforming uses; delete the Industrial Overlay (I-OZ) zone from text and maps; and delete the M1 (Light Industrial) and M2 (Heavy Industrial) suffixes from certain properties within the SD-84 Zoning District boundary as designated on the City of Santa Ana Zoning Map. Refer to Section 3.0 – Description of the Proposed Project.

This project would not result in new or more severe environmental impacts than previously addressed in the TZC FEIR, nor has any new information regarding the potential for new or more severe significant environmental impacts have been identified because the project basically limits industrial uses and would not lead to the expansion or intensification of new, expanded or more intensive uses. Therefore, there will be no new or more severe impacts as the result of the implementation of this project, beyond the impacts that have already been analyzed in the TZC FEIR.

In taking action on any of the approvals, the decision-making body of the lead agency must consider the whole of the data presented in the TZC FEIR. As outlined in this Addendum analysis, all impacts of the project were fully examined in the TZC FEIR, and the proposed changes do not require substantial changes to the prior-certified EIR or previously adopted mitigation measures. Therefore, the preparation of an Addendum to the existing certified EIR is the appropriate CEQA document to support the City’s consideration of the project, as outlined in CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164.
