The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines <br />and declares as follows: <br /> <br />A. On August 3, 1998 the City Council approved Variance No. 1998-06 to <br />allow variances for a reduction in the required side yard setback and <br />parking for the Saint Joseph Ballet Studio located at 1818 North Main <br />Street. <br /> <br />B. To facilitate the new expansion of the Bowers Museum to the north <br />between the City and the private developer, Steadfast Companies, a land <br />exchange is proposed. This land exchange will result in noncompliance <br />with one of the conditions of Variance No. 1998-06, which reads "In the <br />event the Kidseum or Bowers Museum South Lot parking facilities are <br />removed, replacement parking facilities must be located on a site within 300 <br />feet of the St. Joseph Ballet parcel." <br /> <br />C. On December 12, 2005 the Planning Commission held a duly noticed <br />public hearing and unanimously voted to recommend that the City Council <br />approve the amendment of Variance No. 1998-06 to remove the above <br />condition. <br /> <br />D. On December 19, 2005, the City Council held a duly noticed public <br />hearing on the amendment of Variance No. 1998-06. <br /> <br />E. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana determines that the following <br />findings have been established to amend Variance No. 1998-06: <br /> <br />1. That because of special circumstances applicable to the subject <br />property, including size, shape, topography, location or <br />surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance is found <br />to deprive the subject property of privileges not otherwise at <br /> <br />Resolution No. 2005-122 <br />Page 1 of 5 <br />
