of the City of Santa Ana and otherwise justified by the public necessity, convenience, and general welfare. Section 2. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana recommends that the City Council adopt an ordinance pre-zoning the real properties generally located at the northeast corner of Seventeenth Street and Tustin Avenue and Amended Sectional District Map number 4-5-9 showing the above described change in use district designation (AA No. 2018-07). This recommendation is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes, but is not limited to: The Request for Planning Commission and Council Action dated October 8, 2018 and November 20, 2018, respectively and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference. Section 3. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines, a categorical exemption will be filed for this project pursuant to section 15319. This Class 19 exemption applies to projects involving annexation of existing facilities and lots for exempt facilities. The proposed annexation area is developed to the density allowed by the current zoning or pre- zoning, with the extension of utility services having the capacity to serve only the existing facilities. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to CEQA, a categorical exemption adequately addresses the expected environmental impacts of this project. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds that there is no evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment therefore, it is categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents. As a result, Environmental Review No. 2018-89 will be filed for this project Section 4. The zoning designation of the real properties generally located within the 24.78-acre County island at the northeast corner of Seventeenth Street and Tustin Avenue shall be reclassified from the County’s Local Business (C-1) and Single- Family Dwellings (R-1) designations to Community Commercial (C1), Single- Family Residence (R-1) and Two-Family Residence (R-2). An amended Sectional District Map, showing the above described changes in use district designation, is hereby approved and attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by this reference as though fully set forth herein. Section 5. This ordinance shall not be effective unless and until Resolution No. 2018-____ (Environmental Review No. 2018-89 and General Plan Amendment No. 2018-04) is adopted and becomes effective. If either resolution and/or ordinance are for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise does not go into effect for any reason, then this ordinance shall be null and void and have no further force and effect. Section 6. This ordinance shall not be effective unless and until the Orange County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) passes a resolution adopting the DRAFT 2-14
