SECTION 2 — PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES <br />The specific development is intended to redevelop an industrial site into a mixed -use <br />and pedestrian oriented community. Located at one of the City's southeastern <br />gateways, the specific development will function as a key focal center, and serve to link <br />Santa Ana to surrounding industrial, commercial and residential areas. SD-96 will meet <br />the following objectives: <br />1. Facilitate development of a mixed -use village containing commercial and multi- <br />family residential buildings, which would help meet the region's demand for <br />housing. <br />2. Transform an underutilized site with an economically viable development <br />consistent with other regional redevelopments in the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan <br />and Irvine Business Complex (IBC) and combines residential uses with <br />community -serving retail near employment opportunities, freeway access, and <br />transit. <br />3. Redevelop existing land uses that would utilize existing infrastructure, including: <br />water, sewer, arterial roadways, transit, and freeways; and provide non -vehicular <br />(pedestrian and bicycle) circulation. <br />4. Develop a mix of housing to assist the City in meeting its jobs/housing balance. <br />5. Provide onsite uses that reduce vehicular miles traveled (VMT) by providing an <br />internal pedestrian circulation system that links residential uses, recreation areas, <br />and retail/commercial areas onsite. <br />6. Implement the SCAG Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities <br />Strategy (RTP/SCS) Land Use Policies related to population and housing by <br />providing additional housing near employment centers. <br />SD-96 establishes standards and regulations for protecting the health, safety, and <br />general welfare of the people of the City by promoting and enhancing the value of <br />property and encouraging the orderly development of the property. <br />SECTION 3 — LAND USE AND ZONING <br />A. Density and Intensity <br />The maximum authorized building density and intensity for the project is a floor area <br />ratio (FAR) of 2.06, including residential areas, community -serving areas (e.g., leasing <br />office, gym and club room), commercial components, and interior corridors. The <br />maximum residential density permitted is 77 dwelling units per acre. <br />1�1 C�- <br />
