Santa Ana General Plan Update <br />CEQA Findings of Fact and Statement <br />Of Overriding Considerations -51- October 2021 <br />residences along affected roadways. No individual measures and no set of feasible or practical <br />mitigation measures are available to reduce project-generated traffic noise to less than significant <br />levels in all cases. Thus, traffic noise would remain a significant and unavoidable impact. It should <br />be noted that the identification of this program-level impact does not preclude the finding of less- <br />than-significant impacts for subsequent projects analyzed at the project level. <br />Mitigation Measures <br />Refer to Mitigation Measure N-2, above. <br />Finding <br />Finding 3. Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the GPU that avoid <br />or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the PEIR. These <br />changes are identified in the form of the mitigation measure above. The City of Santa Ana hereby <br />finds that implementation of the mitigation measure is feasible, and the measure is therefore <br />adopted. <br />The City finds that there are no mitigation measures that are feasible, taking into consideration <br />specific economic, legal, social, technological or other factors, that would mitigate this impact to <br />a less-than-significant level, and further, that specific economic, legal, social, technological, or <br />other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for <br />highly trained workers, make infeasible the alternatives identified in the PEIR, as discussed in <br />Section G of these Findings (Public Resources Code §§ 21081(a)(1), (3); Guidelines §§ <br />15091(a)(1), (3)). As described in the Statement of Overriding Considerations, the City has <br />determined that this impact is acceptable because specific overriding economic, legal, social, <br />technological, or other benefits, including regionwide or statewide environmental benefits, of the <br />GPU outweigh its significant effects on the environment. <br />5. Population and Housing <br />Impact 5.13-1: The GPU would directly induce substantial unplanned population growth. <br />Support for this environmental impact conclusion is fully discussed in Section 5.13, Population <br />and Housing, starting on page 5.13-12 of the Updated Draft PEIR. <br />Full buildout of the GPU would result in a population of 431,629, and the city’s 2045 population <br />growth would be approximately 20 percent greater than the Orange County Council of <br />Governments’ 2045 projections. Furthermore, the city’s housing units at buildout would be <br />115,053, which exceeds the Orange County Council of Governments’ projection by 38 percent. <br />There are no feasible mitigation measures to mitigate the population and housing growth at <br />buildout, and impacts would be significant and unavoidable.
