Vista Heritage Charter School (601 North Fairview Street) January 16, 2024 Page 9 Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions During the development review phase of the project, the City obtained information concerning the Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) governing both Parcel 2 and Parcel 4 illustrated in Exhibit 9. These CC&Rs outline potential use restrictions that could impact these parcels. However, these stipulations do not hinder the City's authority to proceed with the intended rezoning and revising of the SD-82 text. Furthermore, the text of SD-82 requires the update and clarification of these CC&Rs, mandating their refinement and subsequent submission to the City before permit issuance. Public Notification and Community Outreach Project notifications were posted, published, and mailed in accordance with City and State regulations for both the Planning Commission and the City Council public hearing. At the time this report was printed, no issues of concern were raised regarding the proposed development. In addition to the above noticing, the project was subject to the City's Sunshine Ordinance (Ordinance No. NS-3040) requiring two meetings to facilitate early public participation. The first community meeting was held March 6, 2023. Eleven members of the community attended and posted questions relating to on -site traffic circulation, the outdoor play area, the location of the proposed fences, and parking concerns. The second community meeting was held May 15, 2023, during which 10 members of the community attended and expressed that the site plan did not address the traffic circulation concerns raised previously. Materials from the two required community meetings are included with this report as Exhibit 8, and all materials were published to the project's webpage on the City's website at santa-ana.org/vista-charter-school/. Additional Outreach The applicant organized an additional meeting on May 23, 2023, with stakeholders, City staff, and Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) staff to discuss the parking requirements of Parcel 2 and Parcel 4 listed in the CC&Rs and optional overflow parking not listed in the CC&Rs for Templo Calvario. Moreover, on November 3 and November 15, the applicant met with various stakeholders to discuss the proposed site plan, parking requirements, and clarification on the CC&Rs limitations. The purpose of the meetings was to ensure ongoing communication about the steps and substance needed in order to revise the CC&Rs to reflect the current project, should the requested entitlements be approved.
