Exhibit A: Draft ALUC Overrule Findings — The Village Santa Ana Specific Plan (1561 W. Sunflower Avenue) Page 8 of 10 proposed Project would not generate substantial sources of glare. • Operation of the proposed residential and commercial uses would not generate substantial quantities of steam, smoke, or dust emissions. Dust emissions are regulated by Southern California Air Quality Management District ("SCAQMD") requirements and construction related air quality emissions that could include steam, smoke, and dust emissions would be less than significant with implementation of the standard SCAQMD Rules. • The proposed Project would include the use of typical electronics, such as computers, televisions, and other electronics with wireless capability. These types of electronics are currently being used by the existing land uses on the site, and other uses in the vicinity of the site. The new residential and commercial uses on the site would use similar technology that does not cause electronic interference that could affect aircraft. Thus, impacts related to electronic interference with operations of JWA would not occur. xiv. Compatible Land Use. It will take appropriate action, to the extent reasonable, including the adoption of zoning laws, to restrict the use of land adjacent to or in the immediate vicinity of the airport to activities and purposes compatible with normal airport operations, including landing and takeoff of aircraft. In addition, if the Project is for noise compatibility program implementation, it will not cause or permit any change in land use, within its jurisdiction, that will reduce its compatibility, with respect to the airport, of the noise compatibility program measures upon which Federal funds have been expended. e. Height. The residential and commercial land uses under the proposed Project are consistent with the height standards of the AELUP. The allowable height of structures surrounding an airport is described in FAR Part 77 as the allowable height at which safe movement of aircraft occurs. The regulation requires that notice be given to the FAA if there is a proposal to construct a structure that would exceed a 100:1 slope of an imaginary surface extending outward for 20,000 feet from the nearest runway at JWA. Beyond the 100:1 imaginary surface, FAR Part 77 requires notification to FAA for any project that will be more than 200 feet in height above the ground level. The proposed buildings associated with the Specific Plan would not exceed the sloping, three-dimensional 100:1 (one percent sloping
