The Planning Commission made no changes to the recommended actions outlined in the <br />attached staff report (Exhibit A). <br />DISCUSSION <br />The City of Santa Ana Parks, Recreation and Community Service Agency (PRCSA) is requesting <br />to rezone two parcels of land from residential to open space to allow the construction of a future <br />public park. At this time, PRCSA has not yet conducted any technical studies and park designs <br />have not been drafted. This action is solely a land use action required in order to facilitate the <br />future construction of such park and to assure the park will be in conformance with the City's <br />General Plan and Zoning designations. As part of this application, staff will amend the General <br />Plan Land Use Element text and map and zoning map. <br />75A-1 <br />
