REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br /> <br />FEBRUARY 17, 2004 <br /> <br />TITLE: <br /> <br />PUBLIC HEARING - ZONING ORDINANCE <br />AMENDMENT NO. 2004-03 TO RESCIND <br />THE MISSION DEFINITION AND MISSION <br />USE FROM THE M2 ZONE <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER <br /> <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br /> <br />APPROVED [] As Recommended <br /> [] As Amended <br /> [] Ordinance on 1s~ Reading <br /> [] Ordinance on 2nd Reading <br /> [] Implementing Resolution <br /> [] Set Public Hearing For <br /> <br />CONTINUEDTO <br /> <br />FILE NUMBER <br /> <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br /> <br />Adopt an ordinance approving Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2004-03. <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />The purpose of the zoning ordinance amendment is to repeal Section <br />120.1, definition for missions and <br />the M2 (Heavy Industrial) zoning <br />Code. <br /> <br />Property Description <br /> <br />The amendment to the zoning ordinance will affect all properties <br />and specifically within the M2 <br /> <br />Analysis of the Issues <br /> <br /> 41- <br />Subsection 41-489.5(i), mission use in <br />district of the Santa Ana Municipal <br /> <br /> citywide <br />(Heavy Industrial) zoning district. <br /> <br />Because of its age, current provisions of the Santa Aha Municipal Code <br />that regulate emergency shelters and transitional housing within the City <br />are in need of review, study and possible revision, particularly to the <br />extent that they relate to the propagation of the faith of a religious <br />organization. Provisions of the Santa Aha Municipal Code (~the Code") <br />fail to fully take into account the potential impacts associated with the <br />establishment and maintenance of emergency shelters and transitional <br />housing and fail to address the needs of the City and its residents today <br />and in the future. <br /> <br />The City of Santa Ana is home to at least two dozen emergency shelters <br />and transitional housing uses. The City Council annually awards <br />emergency shelter grants to a number of such uses. In the past, the City <br />Council actively supported such projects as Emmanuel House, Wise Place <br />and Mercy House. A notice of violation was previously issued for <br />violation of Section 41-120.1, and has been formally rescinded <br />(Exhibit 1). <br /> <br />75A-1 <br /> <br /> <br />
