The Metro East Mixed Use overlay district was adopted in 200 7 as a result <br />of interest in developing mixed-use residential and commercial projects in <br />its project area. The regulating plan, which establishes land uses and <br />development standards, allows a variety of housing and commercial <br />projects, including mixed-use residential communities, live/work units, <br />hotels, and offices. <br />C. The California Density Bonus law allows developers to seek increases in <br />base density for providing on-site housing units in exchange for providing <br />affordable units on site. To help make constructing on-site affordable units <br />feasible, the law allows developers to seek incentives/concessions or <br />waivers that would help the project be built without significant burden and <br />without detriment to public health. <br />D. On June 27, 2022, the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana held <br />a duly noticed public hearing and at that time considered all testimony, <br />written and oral. <br />E.
