Resolution No. 2022-XXX Page 3 of 10 site is in an area identified by the General Plan for industrial uses, pursuant to the Industrial/FLEX land use designation. Vehicles and trucks entering and departing from the project site will not travel through any neighborhoods containing sensitive land uses, such as residences, schools, or parks. The new General Plan also designates surrounding properties Industrial/FLEX, and Garry Avenue and Pullman Street provide direct access to the SR-55 Freeway by way of the Dyer Road interchange, a driving distance of half a mile (0.50 miles). 4. That the proposed use shall comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The use will comply with all regulations and conditions identified in Chapter 41 (Zoning Code) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code. In addition to conforming to the development standards of the proposed M1 zoning district designation, the project and site plan have been designed to minimize impacts onto surrounding properties. Primarily, the building’s loading docks have been placed facing south toward the vacant Alton Avenue right-of-way, to minimize noise and aesthetic impacts onto adjacent, developed properties. The site plan has been designed such that should the Alton Avenue bridge over the SR-55 Freeway be constructed, the project would continue to satisfy all applicable landscape and solid screen wall requirements. As the SR-55 Freeway widening project commences in earnest in late 2022, the project will continue to be able to provide a 10-foot wide landscape buffer along the freeway, which will allow for mature trees, shrubs, and groundcover to be maintained long-term along the project site’s western (freeway-adjacent) landscape strip. 5.
