The project complies with the <br />reduction goals of the City's Climate Action Plan, AB-32 and SB-32. The project also complies with the <br />applicable Green Building Standards and the City of Santa Ana's policies regarding sustainability (as <br />dictated by the City's General Plan). Therefore, the project would not have any significant GHG <br />impacts. <br />b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the <br />emissions of greenhouse gases? Less Than Significant Impact. As stated previously, the City of <br />Santa Ana adopted the Santa Ana Climate Action Plan (CAP) in December 2015 and in the CAP <br />adopted emissions reduction goals of 15 percent below the baseline year 2008 by 2020 and 30 percent <br />below the baseline year 2008 by 2035 for community -wide emissions. The City has identified emission <br />measures in the CAP that can reduce GHG emissions from community -wide and municipal operations. <br />While none of the measures are directly relevant to the project, the project does not conflict with any of <br />the measures. Another approach to identifying potential conflict with GHG reduction plans, policies, or <br />regulations is to examine General Plan provisions that prescribe or enable GHG emissions control. <br />Legacy Sunflower Apartments Page 55 <br />Mitigated Negative Declaration - March 14, 2019 <br />
