The Bowery Mixed -Use Development Project June 16, 2020 Page 2 As a final review authority on legislative acts, the City Council may, after a public hearing, choose to overrule the ALUC's decision by following the procedure established in PUC Sections 21676 and 21676.5. The first step is to provide notice to ALUC and the Division ofAeronautics of the City's intention to overrule the ALUC's determination by providing them with a Notice of Intent at least 45 days in advance of the overruling action by the City Council. In turn, ALUC may provide comments to the City Council within 30 days of receiving the Notice of Intent. If ALUC's comments are not available within this time limit, the City Council may act without them. The comments by ALUC are advisory to the City Council. However, should comments be received, the City Council must include comments from ALUC in the public record of any final decision to overrule ALUC. The second step is to conduct a public hearing through which the City Council needs to make specific findings that the proposed overruling is consistent with the purposes stated in PUC Section 21670. The Council's adoption of this resolution is procedural and does not constitute the project's approval nor does it predispose the City's future action on the project or the decision to overrule or not. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The City Council finds that the adoption of this resolution is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines as the proposed action will not have a significant effect on the environment. Environmental Impact Report No. 2020-01 (SCH No. 2019080011) has been prepared for the proposed project as a whole and will be presented to the City Council for consideration, along with the requested General Plan amendment and amendment application, at a future hearing date. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #3 - Economic Development, Objective #2 (create new opportunities for business/job growth and encourage private development through new General Plan and Zoning Ordinance policies) and Goal #5 - Community Health, Livability, Engagement & Sustainability, Objective #3 (facilitate diverse housing opportunities and support efforts to preserve and improve the livability of Santa Ana neighborhoods). FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. Exhibit: 1. Authorization to Provide Notice 55C-2
