TASK 2: PROJECT COMMENCEMENT Task 2, as described in the Request for Proposals, focuses on refining the work program, project schedule, and public engagement program, as well as reviewing the General Plan interim development standards for the five focus areas. The timing of these tasks overlap with Task 1 work, as indicated in the schedule on page 17 of this proposal. We have described them here to follow the Request for Proposals structure. Subtask 2.1: Work Scope Refinement and Program Kick-off Prior to the project commencement and kick-off meeting described in subtask 1.1, the MIG Team will work with City staff to review, refine, and finalize the work scope and project schedule. This will consist of two video conference calls to discuss project goals, available resources, City staff shared responsibilities for engagement outreach and activities, scheduling of engagement events, stakeholders to involve, and City staffs preliminary ideas for updating the Zoning Code. Subtask 2.2: Briefing Paper on Interim Standards and Existing Form -based Code Standards As a parallel task to developing zoning strategies in subtask 1.2 above the MIG Team will review the Focus Area interim development standards contained in Land Use Element Appendix A to identify how those standards might be brought into the updated Zoning Code. The standards indicate maximum densities and heights, reflective of General Plan land use policy, but also cross reference existing development standards in the Zoning Code and special area plans that apply. We will assess whether those cross-referenced standards may be appropriate for future development or whether a new zone is needed to better implement policy direction. For example, the Flex 1.5 designation relies upon land use and development standards for the M1 zone, but those M1 regulations do not reflect the vision for the flex areas; we will likely recommend creation of a new zone. We will prepare a briefing paper summarizing our analysis and outlining recommendations. These considerations will be further explained in the Zoning Strategies paper described in Subtask 1.2.

Subtask 3.1: Audit of Special Plan Areas and Citywide Design Guidelines Santa Ana has adopted a series of specific plans, form -based code area plans, and specific developments to tailor use and development standards for unique neighborhoods and districts.
