EXHIBIT A Resolution No. _____ Page 6 of 71 Certification of the Magnolia at the Park EIR New exterior lighting onsite would be provided for security and to accent the landscaping, Project signage, light walkways, and parking areas. The new lighting would be focused on the Project site, shield offsite areas, and would be compliant with the City’s lighting regulations (Santa Ana Municipal Code, Section 8-210 and Section 41-611.1). 3.5 Site Access The Project would provide vehicular access via a driveway on N. Main Street that would guide vehicles to the parking structure that provides direct access to the residential units, guest parking, and the leasing office. The Project may also implement a secondary access from either Santiago Park (Option B) or Edgewood Road (Option C). The 3 access options are described below. • Option A: Access on N. Main Street Only. Access to the Project would be provided by one driveway on N. Main Street and would be restricted to right-turn ingress/right-turn egress access only. • Option B: Santiago Park-Walkie Way and N. Main Street Project Access. This option would provide access to the Project site from both Santiago Park/Walkie Way and N. Main Street. The signal at Walkie Way would allow for right-turn ingress/right-turn egress and left-turn ingress/left- turn egress and would provide secondary access to the parking structure. The portion of the park that may be used for access Option B is approximately 10,000 square feet. Various portions of Santiago Park were developed with grant funding; therefore, the park must be operated and maintained as parkland. Any changes to the parkland must be reviewed by the National Park Service and conversions require replacement of the land removed from public outdoor recreation with new parkland. Thus, should access Option B be implemented, a 10,000 square foot portion of the Project site would be dedicated to the City for parkland so that a loss of parkland would not occur. • Option C: Edgewood Road and N. Main Street Project Access. This option would provide access to the Project site from the north-leg of Bush Street/Edgewood Road and from a driveway on N. Main Street. The driveway at Edgewood Road would allow for right-turn ingress/right-turn egress and left-turn ingress/left-turn egress. Additionally, separate emergency access would be provided from Edgewood Road by knoxbox-gated entrances and onsite emergency lanes that meet the City’s Fire Code requirements. 3.6 Infrastructure The Project would connect to the existing water, sewer, and drainage infrastructure in the N. Main Street and Edgewood Road right-of-ways. • Water Infrastructure: The Project would install new water infrastructure on the Project site that would connect to the existing 16-inch water pipelines in N. Main Street and Edgewood Road. The new onsite water system would be compliant with the CalGreen Plumbing Code (Title 24) for efficient use of water. • Wastewater Infrastructure: Wastewater from the Project site currently discharges into existing City-owned 6- and 12-inch sewer lines within Edgewood Road. The Project would install a new onsite sewer system that connects to the existing sewer lines in Edgewood Road. 2-42
