The provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA), <br />Public Resources Code Sections 21000 et. seq., as amended, require the <br />evaluation of environmental impacts in connection with proposals for <br />discretionary projects. <br />C. Pursuant to Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental <br />Quality Act, an Initial Study relative to the proposed project concluded that <br />implementation of the project could result in potentially significant effects on <br />the environment and identified mitigation measures that would reduce the <br />significant effects to a less -than -significant level. <br />D. The City of Santa Ana prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND), <br />Environmental Review No. 2016-156 for the proposed project which reflects the <br />City's independent judgement and analysis as lead agency for the project. The <br />Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded that the project would have a less <br />than significant environmental impact with implementation of mitigation <br />measures. Mitigation measures are included to address cultural resources, <br />hazards, and tribal and cultural resources. <br />E. On August 13, 2018, Notice of Intent to adopt the Initial Study and Mitigated <br />Negative Declaration, Environmental Review No. 2016-156 was published in <br />Resolution No. 2018-081 <br />Page 1 of 12 <br />
