Exhibit A: Draft ALUC Overrule Findings — The Village Santa Ana Specific Plan (1561 W. Sunflower Avenue) Page 10 of 10 Improvement Program EIR certified on June 25, 2019. g. Heliports. Heliports are not a part of the Project. h. Zone Change. The proposed zone change (amendment application) is consistent with the objective AELUP aircraft noise, safety and height standards and is therefore consistent with the larger planning role of the ALUC. "Close to the JWA approach centerline" is not an FAA or an ALUC standard. There is no substantiation that overflights of new residents would be disturbed or annoyed. The Project is located outside of the 60 dBA CNEL noise contour. As such, the Project would not add any new residential or commercial noise impacts to the JWA 65 dBA CNEL noise area. ii. Flight tracks limited information was provided in the ALUC staff report. f These flight tracks are not unique and are fully accounted for in the one year of overflights used to measure CNEL noise impacts associated with JWA. iii. Flight tracks limited information for arrivals and departures are not unique and are fully accounted for in the single -event noise contours produced for the JWA GAIP EIR. The Project is located outside of these single -event noise contours. iv. Per Section 1.2 of the AELUP for JWA, the purpose of the AELUP is to safeguard the general welfare of the inhabitants within the vicinity of the airport and to ensure the continued operations of the airport. The method by which the ALUC achieves this purpose is through the application of the objective standards contained in Section 2.1 of the AELUP. As demonstrated in the ALUC staff report and, in these Findings, the Specific Plan and application for each implementing project is and will be consistent with each of the standards. As a result, the ALUC has met their duty under Section 1.2 by ensuring that the Specific Plan meets these standards. V. Additionally, Section 2.1.4 of the AELUP for JWA and PUC Section 21674 charge the Commission to coordinate at the local level to ensure compatible land use planning. The method by which the ALUC achieves this charge is through the application of the objective standards contained in Section 2.1 of the AELUP. As demonstrated in the ALUC staff report and, in these Findings, the Project is consistent with each of the standards. As a result, the ALUC has met their duty under Section 2.1.4 and PUC Section 21674 by ensuring that the Project meets these standards.
