F. Site Plan Review No. 2006-07 has been filed with the City of Santa Ana seeking to allow the construction of a new 16,000 square foot mixed-use building with 1,189 square feet of retail on the first floor, 3,544 of basement that includes parking and storage, as well as five live-work community units occupying the remaining upper floors for the property located at 320 West Fourth Street. Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the initial study and the amended mitigated negative declaration and mitigation monitoring program, Environmental Review No. 2004-234, prepared with respect to this Project. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, a mitigation negative declaration and mitigation monitoring program adequately addresses the expected environmental impacts of this Project. On the basis of this review, the City Council finds that there is no evidence from which it can be fairly argued that the Project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment. The City Council hereby certifies and approves the amended mitigated negative declaration and mitigation monitoring program and directs that the Notice of Determination be prepared and filed with the County Clerk of the County of Orange in the manner required by law. Pursuant to Title XIV, California Code of Regulations ("CCR") ~ 735.5(c)(1), the City Council has determined that, after considering the record as a whole, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have the potential for any adverse effect on wildlife resources or the ecological habitat upon which wildlife resources depend. The proposed project exists in an urban environment characterized by paved concrete, roadways, surrounding buildings and human activity. Therefore, pursuant to Fish and Game Code ~ 711.2 and Title XIV, CCR ~ 735.5(a)(3), the payment of Fish and Game Department filing fees is not required in conjunction with this project. Section 3. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby, approves Site Plan Review No. 2006-07 as conditioned in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein and Conditional Use Permit No. 2006-14 as conditioned in Exhibit "B" attached hereto and incorporated herein. These decisions are based upon the evidence submitted at the abovesaid hearing, which includes but is not limited to: the Request for Planning Commission Action dated February 5, 2007 and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference.
