The Project site consists of 6 contiguous parcels that include Assessor Parcel Numbers (APNs): 003-010- 028, 003-010-01, 003-010-03, 003-010-025, 003-010-026, 003-010-030 and is located within the U.S. Geologic Survey (USGS) Orange County 7.5 Minute Series Topographic Quadrangle. 3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.1 Originally Proposed Project As originally proposed and as described and analyzed in the EIR, the Project would redevelop the 5.9- acre Project site to provide 496 for-rent multi-family residential units. The residences would be provided within approximately 572,075 square feet of residential structures. The development would be 5 stories and be topped with mezzanines reaching approximately 65-feet 8-inches in height. The development would tier down to 2-stories (slightly over 20-feet in height) on the eastern portion of the site. The residential units would be wrapped around a 358,630 square foot central parking/fitness center/club room structure with a roofline of approximately 90 feet from the ground surface, which is the highest point of the Project. The Project would result in approximately 930,705 square feet of development and a density of 84 dwelling units per acre, and would provide a mix of studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three- bedroom units, as shown in Table 1.

As originally proposed and as described and analyzed in the EIR, the residential units would be setback a minimum of 40 feet from the cement block wall that forms the eastern Project site boundary and would be separated by 4 courtyards and landscaped areas. The central parking structure would have 9 levels of parking, one of which would be underground; thus, 8 levels of parking would be above ground. The 2-34
