Individual members of SWMSRCC live, work, and recreate in the City and <br />surrounding communities and would be directly affected by the Project's <br />environmental impacts. <br />' See City's Project Information page, available athttps://www.santa-ana.org/cabrillo-town- <br />center-1901-e-fourth-street/. <br />Z See Santa Ana Municipal Code, section 41-645(b). <br />City Council 18 — 18 10/3/2023 <br />
