• The project is in compliance with the use and development standards established for the Urban Neighborhood 2 of the Specific Development No. 84 (Transit Zoning Code, SD-84, UN-2), and the architectural standards for a house building type and Front Yard/Porch Frontage type. The relocated structure is within the maximum building height allowed for the zone, meets the building setback and frontage requirements, and proposes parking to be located in the rear of the lot. In addition, the house will be developed on a lot that exceeds the minimum 5,000 square foot lot size with 50 feet of lot frontage. 4. Will approval of the permit adversely affect the general plan of the city, or any specific plan of the city applicable to the lot or parcel on which the residential structure is proposed to be moved or relocated? The relocation of the duplex building is consistent with the General Plan land use designation of Urban Neighborhood, which allows a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.5 to 1.5. The existing house is approximately 850 square feet and is located on a 6,250 square foot lot, resulting on a FAR of 0.14. The project is also consistent with the City's General • Plan goals to provide affordable housing opportunities (Housing Element and Goal 4). E. The environmental impact of relocating this property is consistent with the analysis in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared for the Transit Zoning Code (SCH # 2006071100), which was certified by the Santa Ana City Council on June 7, 2010. There have been no changes to the project or the circumstances under which the project is undertaken that would require any major revisions to the Final EIR and there is no new information with respect to the project that would require such revisions. Therefore, no supplemental or subsequent environmental analysis is required under Public Resources Code section 21166. The revisions to the Station District Project resulting from the April 18, 2011 Settlement Agreement between the City and Agency and the Friends of the Lacy Historic Neighborhood do not change this conclusion. Section 2. The Zoning Administrator of the City of Santa Ana hereby approves Residential Relocation Permit No. 2011-02 as conditioned in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein. This decision is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes, but is not limited to: the Request for Zoning Administrator Action dated May 25, 2011, and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference.
