Specific Development Plan No. 40 Zone District <br />The Specific Development Plan No. 40 (SD-40) would be amended to <br />facilitate and expedite the review of development proposals of <br />structures listed on the Santa Ana Register of Historical <br />Properties. These properties would be excluded from review by <br />the Planning Commission. Structures listed on the Santa Ana <br />Register of Historical Properties would be reviewed by the <br />Historic Resources Commission. <br />RESPONSES TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST <br />The following is an analysis of potential environmental impacts <br />associated with the proposed zoning ordinance amendment based <br />upon the City of Santa Ana Environmental Check List. The <br />analysis incorporates by reference information from the Santa <br />Ana General Plan Land Use Element No. EIR 97-1. <br />The proposed zoning ordinance amendment involves comprehensive <br />changes to the single-family residential development standards. <br />The amendments to the residential front yard fences, <br />definitions, second dwelling units, laundromats, vending <br />machines, townhouse standards and specific development standards <br />as well as amendments to the Specific Development No. 40 zone <br />district are mainly intended to correct, clarify and update <br />these sections. No environmental impacts would be associated <br />with this portion of the proposed zoning ordinance amendment. <br />Therefore, the primary focus of the environmental analysis of <br />the proposed zoning ordinance amendment would be potential <br />impacts associated with the proposed changes to the single- <br />family residential development standards. <br />2.
