Section 2. CEQA Compliance. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City Council of the City of Santa Ana has, as a result of its consideration of the record as a whole and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines, Environmental Review No. 2019-85 meets all the requirements of CEQA. Based on the substantial evidence set forth in the record, including but not limited to the 2010 EIR and the 2020 Third & Broadway Addendum, the City Council finds that an addendum is the appropriate document for disclosing the changes to the subject properties, and that none of the conditions identified in Public Resources Code section 21166 and State CEQA Guidelines section 15162 requiring subsequent environmental review have occurred. because: A.

There is not a substantial change with respect to the circumstances under which the project will be developed that would require major revisions of the 2010 EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects.
