ML EXHIBIT A Santa Ana Comprehensive Zoning Code Update Revised Scope of Services — August 2023, October 2023 This scope of work focuses on: • Restructuring and rewriting Chapter 41 (Zoning) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code to improve ease of use, facilitate future updates, and reflect state-of-the-art standards and processes that will achieve quality development projects • Implementing General Plan policies and implementation programs to achieve long-range goals • Creating new zoning districts from the five General Plan Focus Areas • To the maximum extent possible, incorporating the nearly 100 specific plan zoning districts and overlay zones into the code, either as clear cross references to comprehensive specific plans or by subsuming those plans that are fully built out, into existing and new zoning districts • Incorporating graphics to illustrate development standards and desired conditions • Reworking current administrative procedures to achieve transparent, predictable, and consistent processes for City staff and community members • Ensuring all regulations reflect current State laws • Addressing City staff's "fix -it" lists • Reflecting sustainability principles • Allowing this new, modern code to be translated into a readily navigable, hyperlinked, web - based code For ease of readability in the following scope, our team is identified the MIG Team, inclusive of all team members. Project Assumptions • Coordination meetings between City staff and the MIG Team largely will consist of video conferences (for time and cost efficiencies). • For all deliverables provided to the City for review, the City will provide a single set of directed revisions to the MIG Team using Word's track -changes function. To facilitate this work approach, as an alternative we can prepare draft documents using Google Docs or SharePoint. TASK 1: PROJECT OUTLINE, MANAGEMENT, AND COORDINATION The purpose of this task is to refine the approach to the Zoning Code comprehensive update and lay the foundation for consistent project management and smooth communications throughout the work program. We will also conduct initial research involving best -practices strategies and a high-level audit of the existing Zoning Code and all special area plans.
