At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public. In addition, all parties that participated in the various meeting related to amending the Housing Opportunity Ordinance were notified of this meeting, including those in attendance at the July 2016 Advisory Committee meeting, the July 2016 Planning Commission public hearing to amend the HOO, and those attending the October 2016 Development and Transportation City Council Subcommittee meeting. More specifically, staff held phone discussions with those individuals that attended any of the meetings identified above. CEQA Analysis In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) as there is no potential for causing a significant impact on the environment due to the adoption of the development agreement modification related to the collection of fees. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2016-76 will be filed for this project. Strategic Plan Alignment Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 5 Community Health, Livability, Engagement and Sustainability, Objective No. 3 (facilitate diverse housing opportunities and support efforts to preserve and improve livability in Santa Ana neighborhoods). Conclusion Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council adopt an ordinance approving the First Amendment to Development Agreement No, 2015-03.
