The blamer Redhill Mixed -Use Proiect CEQA Findinqs of Fad Police Services Impact Finding: The Project would not result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered police service facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios and response times or other performance objectives for police services (Draft EIR at p. 5.12-7). Facts in Support of Findings: The proposed Project addresses typical residential security concerns by providing low -intensity security lighting, security cameras, electronic access to buildings, and 24-hour security personnel. Pursuant to the City's existing permitting process, the Police Department would review and approve the final site plans to ensure that crime prevention design measures are incorporated appropriately to provide a safe environment. The proposed Project would result in an incremental increase in demands on law enforcement services and would require two additional officers based on the Police Department's 2018 staffing of 1.07 officers per thousand population. The two additional officers could be located at the Southeast Substation that is 2.2 miles from the proposed Project. Therefore, the proposed Project would not result in the need for, new or physically altered police protection facilities. Thus, substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or expanded facilities would not occur, and impacts are less than significant. School Services Impact Finding: The Project would not result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered school facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts (Draft EIR at p. 5.12-10). Facts in Support of Findings: The proposed Project would develop 1,150 residential units, which would provide housing for families that have school children. As detailed in Draft EIR Section 5.12.4.5, School Service Environmental Impacts, the proposed Project would result in 334 students at full occupancy. As shown in Draft EIR Table 5.12-2, the school facilities that would serve the Project have a remaining capacity for 1,589 students, which would be able to accommodate the student from the site and continue to have capacity to serve additional students. In addition, the need for additional school facilities is addressed through compliance with school impact fee assessment. The existing Santa Ana Unified School District development impact fee is $3.79 per square foot for all new residential development, and $0.61 per square foot for new commercial development. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65995 applicants shall pay developer fees to the appropriate school districts at the time building permits are issued; and payment of the adopted fees provides full and complete mitigation of school impacts. As a result, impacts related to school facilities would be less than significant. L. Park and Recreation Impact Finding: The Project would not result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered park facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts (Draft EIR at p. 5.1 3-5).
