AGENDA TITLE
Fiestas Del Mariachi Post-Event Summary and Analysis
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Receive and file.
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No
DISCUSSION
Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Agency (PRCSA) has been exploring
revenue-generating opportunities at Santa Ana Stadium, including opportunities to host
or co-present events that attract residents and the surrounding community, focusing on
music and sporting events with potential ticket, food, and vendor sales.
In January 2024, the Power of One Foundation (POOF) submitted a Special Event Permit
to host a mariachi competition at the stadium. Recognizing its potential as a proof of
concept for revenue-generating events, PRCSA proposed co-presenting the Fiestas Del
Mariachi event in 2024.
EVENT OVERVIEW
The Fiestas Del Mariachi event, co-presented by the Power of One Foundation (POOF)
and the City of Santa Ana, took place on Sunday, December 8, 2024, at Santa Ana
Stadium. The event featured a free community showcase of local youth, teen, and adult
mariachi groups, ballet folklorico performances, and engagement from community-based
organizations and non-profits. The evening program transitioned into a ticketed concert
featuring professional mariachi performances.
Attendance: The Fiestas Del Mariachi event saw a modest but engaged turnout for this
first-time event, with an estimated 200-300 attendees during the free daytime community
showcase and 600-700 attendees for the evening ticketed concert. Attendance fell short
of initial projections.

Financial Summary: Under the co-presentation and revenue-sharing agreement for the
Fiestas Del Mariachi event (Exhibit 1), the City covered the $9,004.70 stadium rental fee
which included stadium, audio, custodian, staff, and light fees. The city also secured
protective flooring from Sunbelt Rentals for $118,548 through a competitively bid contract
with Omnia Partners (Contract No. 200601). POOF handled all other event expenses,
contributing $412,331.49 for staging, entertainment, food and beverages, marketing,
security, and police services.

As detailed in the Fiestas Del Mariachi Profit & Loss Report (January – December 31,
2024) (Exhibit 2), POOF reported $68,564.53 in event revenue representing 8.8% of
projected revenue based on ticket sales, food and beverage sales, and event
sponsorships and 13.2% of actual total costs. Given the substantial loss by the promoter,
the City will not recover the full amount of City expenditures. Under the terms of the
agreement (Exhibit 1), the event falls under milestone 1 and the City will recover 10% of
generated revenue totaling $6,856.45 of the $128,452.66 City Expenditures. POOF will
retain the remaining $61,708.08 of generated event revenue.

ANALYSIS
The event demonstrated the potential of the Santa Ana Stadium as a special event
venue. However, future events will need to consider the approximate base cost of
$130,000 to include the stadium turf field cover, stadium fees, and the feasibility of
sufficient attendance to cover costs. Several photos were taken from the stadium in full
setup before the event giving a visual of what the stadium would look like for potential
promoters.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.

CUSTOMER SERVICE MESSAGING:
In early 2024, the Police Department received complaints regarding LAZ’s lack of
customer service. As a result on August 7, 2024, the Police Department hosted training
and instituted a Community Engagement Enforcement Philosophy. This new approach
was delivered to all Santa Ana Police Parking Control Officers and LAZ Parking
Ambassadors. The new approach was to implement two aspects prior to enforcement,
which were education and warnings. The purpose of this philosophy was to teach our
LAZ Ambassadors about creating positive community engagement experiences with
those who violated parking laws. Additionally, the Police Department instructed the
Parking Enforcement personnel on the importance of communication and listening skills
during all contacts.
COMMUNITY CARETAKING DOCTRINE (VEHICLE IMPOUNDS):
The Santa Ana Police Department, including LAZ Parking Ambassadors abide by the

State of California’s Community Caretaking Doctrine when addressing the impounding
of vehicles. In addition to ensuring a valid vehicle impound and storage authority as
identified in the California Vehicle Code, the State mandates (effective January 2019)
that a peace officer or other authorized person cannot tow or impound vehicles (a
warrantless seizures of property) unless the impound or storage also meets the
Community Caretaking Doctrine, which consist of the three justifications listed below:
•Vehicle is parked in such a manner that it is blocking the normal flow of traffic.
•Prevent a theft of contents or vandalism. The Parking Control Officer must
believe the property inside the vehicle is threatened and impound action is
required to protect the owner’s property from theft or vandalism. There must be
“Reasonable belief”, meaning another Parking Control Officer faced with the
same circumstances would conclude that action was required.
•Protect the public: Objective, specific, and articulable facts that lead the Parking
Control Officer to believe that the vehicle poses a safety hazard to the public.
Example: car is burnt, leaking battery fluid, blocking access to a fire
hydrant/alley.
The following table includes an estimated total cost should the City opt to discontinue
contracting for these services and add full-time positions to the Police Department
budget to provide the same service levels as LAZ:
Description Annual Cost
(1) Senior Parking Control Officer $ 114,978
(7) Parking Control Officers 744,968
(8) Vehicles – one-time purchase 541,184
Vehicle Maintenance 85,152
Fuel/Gas 28,000
Uniforms and Vest 18,560
Total $1,532,842
Staff estimates an initial first year cost of $1,532,842. Subsequent year budgets will be
reduced by the exclusion of the vehicle purchase costs and the vests issued to the new
positions. However, annual salary step increases, new premiums, and any negotiated
raises by the bargaining group will increase the cost of the full-time positions and impact
the annual total cost.

together a succinct and comprehensive proposal that meets and exceeds the qualifications set forth in the RFP.
Our desire is to continue to bring as much pride to the City in our management of the parking enforcement program
as you have in your own management of the program. The experience and expertise we have gained over the years,
along with the qualifications of our management team, our local and national presence, and our financial strength
make its a valuable resource to the City. Our proven track record in Santa Ana City is one of the many examples of
our commitment to the success of our customers.
The following proposal makes a compelling case for why LAZ is the ideal company to continue to serve the
SantaAna Police Department for its parking enforcement needs. We know your streets, zones, municipal codes, and
special events intimately. For the past 5 years, we have flexibly adapted to the City's changing needs and have a
vision for what we can do in the years ahead to continuously improve our service offering. Our proposed solution
presents a risk -free commitment and ensures business continuity along with a best -value price based on our existing
seasoned staff and operational infrastructure, no transition setbacks, and smooth ongoing operations.
At LAZ, our people set us apart. Our Santa Ana Key Personnel include an experienced Project Manager Richard
Kowaltschuk, seasoned Enforcement Supervisor Maria Espinosa, and our dedicated regional GM, Nick Lapating

approach to fair and consistent parking enforcement. We have dedicated ourselves to providing professional and
ethical parking enforcement services with the goal of improving the overall safety and quality of life for residents,
visitors, and businesses in the City. LAZ Parking's years of industry experience have given us firsthand knowledge
of the most important aspects of providing parking enforcement services. We have taken the time to develop and
refine best practices for every detail related to the delivery of our services. We make a crucial, noticeable difference
by offering better processes with a proactive management style and through a comprehensive employee screening,
onboarding, and training process. These capabilities come only through experience, knowledge, forethought,
practice, and discipline. The highlighted areas of this section further illustrate our approach to organizing and
implementing the parking enforcement services desired by the City and the ways in which we differentiate
ourselves from our competitors and deliver higher quality.

Building a strong, skilled workforce that understands their roles and responsibilities is just part of what LAZ
Parking does. We continue to foster the employees we have throughout our projects and carefully select new

contract enforcement personnel.
Recruiting & Hiring Process
LAZ Parking has a comprehensive pre-
employment screening and recruitment

TRAINING
LAZ Parking is aware of the impact 'initial and ongoing training has on the
performance of our enforcement officers. Annually our staff in Santa Ana is
issuing over 65,000 citations with a dismissal rate of 0.8%. This metric quantifies
the importance of initial and ongoing training as well as a QA/QC process to
ensure citation accuracy. We believe well -trained officers will ensure a high rate
of enforcement resulting in increased compliance and reducing negative backlash
from citizens who may protest effective enforcement, thus reducing the demands
on both LAZ Parking and Santa Ana PD staff. We will provide extensive in-house
training with a formal induction program for new employees, continuing on-the-
job training, and participation in training offered by Santa Ana Police Department.
New hires go through a combination of classroom and field training, including ride -along training with supervisors
and the Santa Ana Police Department. New hire training typically lasts 1-2 weeks, following the curriculum shown

UNIFORMS
LAZ Parking acknowledges that the Santa Ana Police Department
must approve all uniforms. As ambassadors of the City, we
recognize the importance of employee appearance. LAZ Parking
will ensure that our staff is equipped with the proper uniforms and
equipment needed to do their jobs well and safely. LAZ Parking
will provide staff with enough uniform shirts and pants to make
sure they maintain a professional appearance at all times. All staff
will be issued jackets and hats for inclement weather. Additionally,
LAZ Parking will provide staff with, name tags, and badges that
clearly state the staff person's name.
Task 2 — Parking Enforcement
Responsibilities
LAZ Parking understands that our staff will be responsible for patrolling the streets of the second-largest City in
Orange County and home to more than 300,000 residents. Most of our team's working hours, including the
Supervisor, will be spent out in the field. Our deployment time, which includes device and vehicle checks, pass -
down communication and briefing will take no more than 30 minutes. An officer's end of shift, returning to the
base will take no more than 15 minutes which will allow the maximurn time for our team to be in the field.
Issuance of Parking Citations. LAZ Parking staff is fully trained on the handheld ticket writers and software
currently in use by the Santa Ana Police Department. Our PAs are also trained in paper (manual) citations and the
procedures involved. Staff training on the issuance of parking citations also covers proper placement of citations
and how to issue citations for drive -offs, covered VIN numbers, missing license plates, and other unusual
occurrences. In the event the driver of the offending vehicle drives away prior to the parking enforcement officer
placing the citation on the vehicle, the citation is mailed to the registered owner as required by the California
Vehicle Code.
Daily Reporting by Enforcement Personnel. Parking Ambassadors will be required to submit daily reports to
present, suggest, or recommend to his/her supervisor for review and/or action, irregularities dealing with:
Missing, damaged, or conflicting parking signs, • Obstructed parking signs, stop signs,
or curb markings yield signs, or any safety hazard

Handling Support Calls and Customer Service Complaints. Our project manager will make first contact with
residents that have a concern or complaint. If a complaint is toward our supervisor, the investigation will be
handled by his manager or General Manager of LAZ Parking. A detailed report will be submitted to Santa Ana
PD's Project Manager.
SERVICE, LEVEL EXPECTATIONS
Performance Requirements. LAZ Parking accepts each service level outlined in the Statement of Work, with no
exceptions. We will ensure all required service levels for the City are met or exceeded by implementing our
effective approach to measuring, documenting, and reporting service results.
Depth of Support. LAZ understands the importance of having qualified personnel trained as potential back-
ups/fill-ins for call -outs and planned time -off. We are committed to training additional personnel, including
managers to support and work as PAS or Supervisor when needed.
Auditing Procedures and Reporting Samples. LAZ Parking has hands-on experience customizing and
developing reports that best fit the needs of each of our clients and the programs we manage. Each report provides
easy -to -understand factors for the reviewer, with a focus on highlighting performance metrics. Upon award of a
contract, it is our intent to meet with the City of Santa Ana Police Department management and share a variety of
reports currently in use at our other contracts. In partnership with our municipal and government clients, we have
developed complex reporting mechanisms that provide the operations with a consistent level of oversight.
Reporting Procedures. LAZ Parking is passionate about delivering exceptional solutions to our customers. We
will continue to create, develop, implement, and maintain methodologies and procedures to optimize the
management and operations of the Santa Ana Parking enforcement program. Upon contract award, LAZ Parking
will conduct a complete review of all administrative, operational, and procedural documents to incorporate the
negotiated contract terms and final scope of work. We will work with Santa Ana Police Department's project
manager to define the implementation of the new innovative solutions that are included with our proposal. The
schedule will consist of milestones, including delivery dates for all deliverables, scheduled meetings, reviews,
implementation, and staff training if needed.
LAZ Parking will maintain project files and records per City's record retention policy and throughout the term of
this contract. All project records (electronic and paper) include operations and maintenance guidelines; meeting
agendas and minutes; management and staffing plans; staffing reports and schedules; updates to these documents;
project staff training; plus all manuals, systems maintenance records, training records, systems plans and
installation records, and other correspondence.

PROPOSED INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY
License Plate Recognition (LPR): Our proposed innovation will enhance the
parking enforcement operation and bring more efficiency. License plate
recognition (LPR) technology has greatly advanced over the last few years. Many
parking enforcement agencies throughout California have deployed LPR
technology to capture more parking occupancy data and streamline the
enforcement of time -restricted zones, paid parking meters, and scofflaws
increasing compliance and revenue.
Body Camera: Although this technology was riot a requirement in the RFP, we
recommend (with legal approval) body cameras to capture PA interaction with the
public. This technology also promotes safety and accountability by the PA and the public during possible
altercations.

LAZ BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE DASHBOARD
As part of our proposed innovation strategy, we will work with the
Santa Ana Police Department to launch and deploy our proprietary
data visualization tool LAZ Business Intelligence (BI) dashboard for
this contract. We will work closely with the SAPD management team
to develop Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that could integrated
and compiled into a consolidated report including data points related to
employee productivity, citation accuracy, parking space occupancy and
parking space demand and utilization by day and week over week.
Instead of the pulling separate reports from various technology
platforms such as data ticket, IPS, permitting system etc., LAZ BI
dashboard could be integrated with all technology platforms currently
in use in Santa Ana and serve as a "one -stop -shop" data visualization
tool for SAPD management to review program performance.
LAZ BI dashboard takes the guesswork out of parking management by
turning mountains of disconnected raw data into actionable business
insights. Built in-house on the Microsoft Power BI enterprise platform
by our data analytics team, LAZ BI maximizes the value of your data
to make decisions smarter and faster. We offer our basic solution to the
City of Santa Ana free of charge, and can expand on this, if desired and
as negotiated with the City post contract award.
This infinitely customizable solution provides a single view of the
most critical data points that drive a parking business. As mentioned
above, by creating KPIs, users can monitor areas of operation as a
group or as a single entity in real time, and drill down from high-level
to granular views. We provide the capability to dissect the data down
to individual events or even export the data. As a result, strategic, data -
driven decisions can be made with regard to how to best manage
operations and drive revenues to the bottom line.
With LAZ BI, you'll have the
power of knowing what's driving
your business, right at your
fingertips.
We offer our base solution to the
City of Strata Ana at no upfront
cost and can expand on this
offering to build a custom solution
in the future.
LAZ. Parking has not included the cost of these innovations in our cost structure as the RFP did not specify
additional technology that would add to the hourly cost. Should the City consider these technologies, we will
provide costs and additional information upon request.

iii. Deliverables and lmplementation
Description of deliverables and implemewalionplan. Proposer shall subatit a general description of the deliverables,
implementation plan, and timeline.
LAZ Parking has a distinct advantage in the sense
that there will be no interruption of set -vice if the
City chooses LAZ Parking as its continuing
partner. We do not take our relationship for
granted and understand that sometimes long-
standing accounts with vendors are not always
positive and long tenure sometimes leads to a lack
of innovation and motivation. We take pride in the
knowledge that we constantly strive to be a true
partner to the City and the Santa Ana Police
Department through the continuous improvement
of processes and proactive enforcement strategies.
Our proposed implementation plan considers the transition timeline for the acquisition and procurement of new
vehicles and a uniform refresh. Our transition timeline begins with the approval of City Council and the subsequent
execution of a new contract.
Working with City Staff. In working with City staff, our management philosophy is simple: effective
communication and working as an extension of the Santa Ana Police Department's enforcement team results in a
successful and long-term partnership. Our management team, including senior managers, will always be available
to the City and we will be an added resource with an at -ray of corporate support and share best practices learned
from other projects. We will follow these guidelines and apply best practices learned from working with similar
municipal clients nationwide.
Regular Status Meetings. Our supervisor will continue to be in contact with Santa Ana PD's project manager
daily. We also recommend a standing monthly meeting with LAZ Parking's General Manager. A quarterly meeting
with LAZ Parking's Government Services team is recommended to share industry news and proposed initiatives.
SAPD Approval, Feedback, and Involvement. We will seek SAPD approval on operational changes including,
but not limited to, changes to schedules, routes, and/or operations.
Process Improvement and Operational Recommendations. Periodically and as necessary, we will make
operational recommendations to propose enhancements to the current operations and for future innovation through
new technology and improved processes.

LAZ Parking's Commitment to Supporting Santa Ana -based Businesses. We will continue to make every
effort to purchase equipment and materials from local vendors and utilize Santa Ana -based suppliers and businesses
for our uniform, vehicle repair, and maintenance needs.
Vehicles. LAZ Parking will furnish brand new 2023 eco-friendly sedans,
such as a Toyota Corolla Hybrid or comparable vehicle. We will also
furnish a brand-new truck in addition to the sedans. We estimate the
tiniefranie to procure new vehicles will be 30-45 days from contract
execution.
Global Positioning System (GPS) Tracking: Each vehicle will be
equipped with a GPS tracking device.
Safety Lights: All vehicles will be mounted with Alternating Quad Flash Strobe Magnetic Mount in Amber. These
lights will be used when staff is patrolling to warn other vehicles about their vehicle's slower movement or when
idle.

Man -Hour Rates
Man -Hour Rates were calculated using the starting base labor rate for employees under the Teamsters 911 CBA.
Base starting rate for new employees effective 6/l/2023 is $24.75. That increases to $26.00 effective 6/1/2024.
Tenured employees receive an additional hourly increase over the base rate. Employees working the Graveyard shift
also receive a shift differential. These rates also incorporate the cost of medical insurance and other benefits as
outlined in the CBA. -
Factors Contributing to Increased Contract Cost
The increase in the hourly rate of Checkers (Parking Ambassadors) is directly related to the hourly wage increase of
staff represented by Teamsters 911 as mentioned above. The hourly wage increased from a minimum of $18.00 per
hour to the current Union CBA starting wage of $24.75 which reflects a 37.5% increase in the wages alone resulting
in an overall contract cost increase of 33% over the previous contract. Although this is a significant increase, we are
confident that this will benefit the City directly through improved employee retention and keeping employees
dedicated to the Santa Ana enforcement program.
Annual Hours Adjustment
In Exhibit III of the RFP, the annual unit quantity of Checker hours was 11,100 (which equates to less than 6
Checkers). Based on the current roster as well as shifts provided in the addendum, LAZ Parking feels this number
should be 18,408. Those changes were made in the pricing charts above.

Staff Report
March 4, 2025
TOPIC: Expired Street Work Permit Deposits
AGENDA TITLE
Approve the Transfer of $1,153,976 in Non-Refunded Expired Street Work Permit
Deposits from Deposit Fund to Street Improvement Fund
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve an appropriation adjustment authorizing an interfund budgetary transfer from
the City Services Fund to the Residential Street Improvement Fund and appropriate the
same amount for non-building improvements. (Requires five affirmative votes)
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No
DISCUSSION
In 2024, the City’s independent auditor, CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, recommended that
Public Works Agency (PWA) staff perform an analysis of the street work permit deposits
account (No. 05301001) so that the balance will reconcile to supporting documentation.
Staff performed a comprehensive, thorough review and it was determined that several
street work permit deposits dating as far back as 15 years were stale-dated, expired,
and non-refundable. Per language stated on the Permit, the Miscellaneous Cash
Transaction Receipt, Miscellaneous Fee Schedule, and City Guidelines, these deposit
monies at-issue went not refunded because Permittees failed to complete the project
within 12 months. Attempts were made by staff to reach out to Permittee before
expiration. However, once a permit expires, the deposit is qualified to be recognized as
revenue and can be transferred into a non-refundable account, for which the City could,
at its sole convenience, elect to use the monies for street improvements. By way of
contract (i.e. the Permit, the Miscellaneous Cash Transaction Receipt, Miscellaneous
Fee Schedule, and City Guidelines), the Permittee effectively loses ownership over the
deposit at the time of non-compliance.
Staff recommends that these funds be transferred to the Residential Street
Improvement Fund 058. This will allow staff to implement street improvements that will
benefit the public via a separate staff report being presented in tonight’s agenda; staff
recommends allocating these funds toward the Bristol Street Widening Project. Moving
forward, staff will implement a routine review and transfer process. Staff will proactively

track permit status and compliance, and work with the City’s Finance Agency to transfer
non-refunded monies of expired street work permit deposits to the street improvement
fund.
This one-time cleanup will resolve the outstanding issue that was identified by the City’s
independent auditor. Furthermore, the ongoing process improvement will positively
maintain the City’s strong audit performance.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with the action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Expired deposits totaling $1,153,976 will be recognized in the Public Works Street Work
Permit revenue account (05317002-53737). An interfund budgetary transfer expenditure
will be recorded in account (05317021-68000-058) to the Residential Street
Improvement Fund revenue account (05817002-59000-053), and the same amount will
be appropriated to the Residential Street Improvement Fund under improvements other
than buildings (05817660-66220).

GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: No
DISCUSSION
On August 20, 2024, the City Council authorized the award of a construction contract to
CJ Concrete Construction to construct the grant-funded (State of California Affordable
Housing and Sustainable Communities Program) Legacy Square Transportation
Improvements Project which consists of roadway, bicycle lane, pedestrian, and park
improvements in the Lacy and Logan Neighborhoods (Exhibit 1 & 2). The project is
currently under construction and staff has identified and recommends additional
improvements to the Santiago Street portion of the project to extend the pavement
rehabilitation and bicycle lane improvements all the way to Washington Avenue from the
current end point at Civic Center Drive to deliver a complete project. Staff recommends
the allocation of additional funds from the street improvement fund (No. 05817660) to
pave Santiago Street from Civic Center Drive to Washington Avenue, which was not

covered in the grant fund. The existing project includes new striped bike lanes,
sidewalk, and curb ramp improvements in this street segment.
To capitalize on the favorable pricing of the existing contract with CJ Construction
Concrete, Staff recommends increasing the project contingency by $380,000 to
complete the additional improvements as part of the Legacy Square Transportation
Project.
The recommended action will increase the project contingency by $380,000, thereby
increasing the total estimated construction delivery cost to $2,178,079, as indicated in
the Cost Analysis (Exhibit 3) and as summarized in the table below:

TOTAL ESTIMATED
CONSTRUCTION DELIVERY COST $1,798,079 $380,000 $2,178,079
FISCAL IMPACT
As indicated in the Cost Analysis, the estimated total construction delivery cost of the
project is $2,178,079. All funds are available for expenditure in Fiscal Year 2024-25.
Any remaining balances not expended at the end of the fiscal year will be presented to
City Council for approval of carryovers to Fiscal Year 2025-2026.
With the approval of the requested appropriation adjustment, a portion of the
accumulated fund balance will be appropriated for spending in the Residential Street
Improvement, Improvements Other Than Buildings account (No. 05817660-66220)
(Exhibit 4). The spendable portion of the fund balance is estimated to be $2,307,777 as
of June 30, 2025, which is sufficient to allow for the recommended appropriation of
$380,000. These funds will be budgeted and made available for this item in the

DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency (PWA)’s Engineering Services is responsible for managing
roads, transportation network, and the administration and oversight of all Capital
Improvement Projects in the city. The City received a grant from the State of California’s
Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) Program for improvements in

association with the Legacy Square Affordable Housing project recently completed on
Santa Ana Boulevard and French Street. The AHSC grant funds projects that make it
easier for Californians to drive less by ensuring housing, jobs, and key destinations are
accessible by walking, biking, and transit. The Legacy Square Transportation
Improvements project will construct bicycle and pedestrian improvements to increase
accessibility from the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) to residential
neighborhoods and downtown businesses.
The project will construct class II bicycle lanes (dedicated striped-bike lane) on Santiago
Street from Washington Avenue to SARTC (Exhibit 1 & 2) for bicycle safety. The bicycle
lane will have a buffer between the travel lanes. Pedestrian safety will also be improved
by the project by adding curb bulb-outs to reduce vehicular speeds through
intersections and shortening pedestrian crossing distances, installing ADA compliant
curb ramps, and removing sidewalk tripping hazards. A pocket park at Santa Ana
Boulevard and Mortimer Street will also be constructed with this project to enhance the
community. Landscaping, irrigation, benches, trash receptacles, and lighting will be part
of the pocket park.
Public Outreach and Contractor Participation
To provide an opportunity for local vendors to submit bids, the City notified a total of 69
regional vendors via PlanetBids, many of which are Santa Ana based. Furthermore,
staff specifically reached out to Santa Ana vendors to encourage their participation in
bids. A total of five bids were received. No bids were received from any Santa Ana
contractors.
As legally required, a Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the Orange County Register
newspaper on May 13, 2024. The project was also advertised in PlanetBids from May
13, 2024 through June 4, 2024. Bids were received electronically via PlanetBids on
June 4, 2024.

DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency’s (PWA) Parks, Fleet, and Facilities Division is responsible
for the acquisition, maintenance, repair, and replacement of vehicles, trucks, and
maintenance equipment. The Fleet Services Team maintains an equipment
replacement schedule and works with departments to routinely replace vehicles that
have surpassed their useful life cycle.
The PWA Water Resources Division manages and maintains the operations of Santa
Ana’s water and sanitary sewer systems and requires a new service truck to replace an
aging vehicle utilized daily by the Water System Maintenance section. In accordance
with the City’s Equipment Replacement Policy, the existing vehicle, a 2014 F-550, is
nearing the end of its useful life. Upsizing this vehicle to better meet the operational
needs of the Water Systems Maintenance section is crucial for maintaining the high-
quality water and sewer services provided to Santa Ana residents.
Santa Ana City Ordinance No. NS-3041 authorizes the City to purchase against
contracts from any public agency utilizing a competitive bid process. Sourcewell, a
cooperative government purchasing agency, awarded a contract to PB Loader
Corporation (Contract No. 080521-PBL) as a result of open, competitive bidding on
behalf of its members, which includes government agencies.
Staff researched available procurement options and product offerings in the market and

schedule and works with departments to routinely replace vehicles that have surpassed

The PWA Maintenance Services Division utilizes a 2014 Ford F-550 for routine
operations. The existing truck was evaluated in accordance with the City’s Equipment
Replacement Policy which defines the review process when an equipment is no longer
economically operated and maintained. Based on the equipment lifecycle guidelines,
the existing vehicle has reached its useful lifecycle of 10 years. To optimize utilization
and to advance the electrification of the City’s fleet of vehicles, staff recommends
downsizing to a Ford F-150 Lightning Truck in order to support daily field operations
including transportation of light equipment and materials such as tree trunks, debris,
and illegal waste dumpings. This vehicle will be a crucial addition when deployed as

part of the City’s emergency response to rain and wind storm related debris, as well as
after hours’ emergency service calls.
Separately, the Santa Ana Police Department currently uses three vans to transport
inmates to and from the jail and courthouse, designated parent facilities, and medical
facilities throughout Southern California. The 2018 Chevy 3500 Express Van currently
used for these efforts has exceeded its useful life by reaching 173,766 miles. Due to the
wear and mileage on this vehicle, it is no longer adequate or safe for long distance
transportation outside of City limits; the proposed replacement is a new 2025 Ford
Transit Van. An electric equivalent was not considered due to the risks of having to
charge the van during long-distance inmate transportation. $71,344 of funding for the
replacement vehicle is available from Fleet’s Equipment Replacement fund and the
remaining amount of $62,806 will be paid from the Police Department’s Supplemental
Law Enforcement Services Account for front line policing efforts.
Santa Ana City Ordinance No. NS-3041 authorizes the City to purchase against

Trimble Cityworks System, formerly Azteca Systems, LLC., (Cityworks) a
comprehensive database software to manage these resources by tracking their
condition and optimizing their maintenance cycles. Since its adoption, the Cityworks
platform has enabled staff to document, track, and plan for asset repairs and
replacements. This has led to more effective routine maintenance and improved work
order tracking, ultimately extending the lifespan of these assets. Ongoing maintenance
of the Cityworks system- which is not provided by Trimble/Azteca- is necessary to add
new features or support specific projects on an as-needed basis.
To enhance the City’s asset management capabilities, a Request for Proposals (RFP)
was issued seeking a qualified firm(s) to provide Asset Management Software and
Implementation Services (Exhibit 1). To offer the City a broader range of software
solutions, asset management implementation firms were allowed to partner with third-
party software providers. Upon award of the agreement, the City would allow the
selected firm to provide on-call services to maintain and update the Cityworks software.
RFP No. 24-129 was issued on October 29, 2024 on the City’s online bid management
and publication system, Planetbids. A summary of vendor participation and results is as

Proposals were solicited, opened on October 29, 2024, and evaluated. Two proposals
were submitted by the RFP deadline and both were determined to be responsive to the
specifications and met the City’s requirements. Proposals were scored by a staff panel
and were rated based on responsiveness to the RFP, experience of the firm, and
pricing. Staff recommends the approval of the agreement with Woolpert, Inc. (Exhibit 2).
as they demonstrated the most relevant expertise, capacity, and experience as
specified in the RFP (Exhibit 3). In addition, Woolpert has been the historical provider of
this service and is familiar with the city’s current Cityworks infrastructure. Woolpert’s
previous on-call agreement expired January 15, 2025. An extended negotiation of
contract terms necessitated a delay of the award to the current council date. Because
this is an on-call agreement, no disruption to Cityworks services was experienced.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with the action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are budgeted and available for expenditure in the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 budget

Each Proposer must include in its proposal a complete disclosure of any alleged significant
prior or ongoing contract failures, any civil or criminal litigation or investigation pending which

other party, which documents, without limitation, unsatisfactory performance, adversarial or
contentious demeanor, significant failure(s) to meet contract milestones or other contractual
failures.

CITY OF SANTA ANA | TRIMBLE CITYWORKS CONSULTANT SERVICES 3
Section B | Services Provided
Woolpert fully understands that the City of Santa Ana needs a Trimble Cityworks support consultant that can assist with all
Cityworks-related tasks including, but not limited to, general Cityworks support, troubleshooting, training, configuration, reporting,
integrations, GIS services, and anything else related to the expansion and support of your asset management system of choice. Many
clients who have engaged Woolpert for Cityworks implementations have chosen to extend their partnership by contracting
Woolpert for additional ad-hoc support services. Our expert technical staff is readily available to assist client users, particularly for
newer and smaller clients who may have limited technical resources to support their Cityworks implementation.
While Woolpert's Cityworks implementation services aim to train client users to achieve self-sufficiency in their day-to-day Cityworks
support and usage, there are instances where additional assistance may be necessary or highly beneficial. Factors such as staff
resignations, retirements, or position changes within the client organization can create gaps in the Cityworks support team.
Additionally, clients may seek to incorporate new functionalities, implement additional user interfaces, integrate systems, or request
a follow-up health check to maximize the potential of their implementation.
To cater to these support needs, Woolpert typically establishes a separate task order or contract with clients to provide on-demand
ad-hoc support services. These agreements are typically structured based on a time and materials fee arrangement, often with a
specified dollar limit or maximum scope to provide cost control and transparency.
Below are examples of specific additional support services that Woolpert provides.
On-Demand On-Call Technical
Assistance
On-demand technical assistance addresses any questions, concerns, or issues related to
Cityworks implementations. Clients have access to timely support from Woolpert's expert
technical staff, helping them navigate challenges and maximize the benefits of their
Cityworks implementation.
System Health Checks Many clients have seen benefits by having Woolpert conduct periodic system health
checks to assess the performance and functionality of their Cityworks implementation.
These assessments help identify areas for improvement, optimize system configurations,
and make sure that the software is aligned with the evolving needs of the client.
Customization and Integration
Support
Cityworks can be customized to meet specific requirements. This includes developing
tailored workflows, configuring user interfaces, automation, and integrating Cityworks
AMS with other software systems. By providing this support, Woolpert helps clients
leverage the full potential of Cityworks and streamline their operational processes.
Training and User Support Additional training sessions and user support beyond the initial project implementation
enables clients' staff members, including new hires or those transitioning to different
roles, to receive the necessary training to effectively maximize the capabilities of their
software. Ongoing training helps maximize user proficiency, promotes system adoption,
and enables clients to fully leverage the software's capabilities.
System Upgrades and Enhancements As Cityworks releases updates, Woolpert assists clients in planning and implementing
system upgrades. This includes assessing the impact of upgrades, performing testing and
validation, and providing guidance throughout the upgrade process. Additionally,
Woolpert helps clients explore new features and enhancements available in newer
versions of Cityworks.
These additional support services from Woolpert demonstrate our commitment to providing comprehensive assistance to clients
beyond the initial project implementation. By offering ongoing support and tailored services, Woolpert helps clients effectively
utilize and optimize their Cityworks implementation to grow as their organization requires.

Section C | Agreement Statement
Woolpert has reviewed the terms of the RFP and generally finds the terms to be acceptable, although Woolpert would like to have
the opportunity to request certain modifications if fortunate enough to be awarded the contract. Woolpert is open to discussing

City Council 16 – 60 3/4/2025
CITY OF SANTA ANA | TRIMBLE CITYWORKS CONSULTANT SERVICES 11
Section E | Proposed Work Plan
Statement of Understanding
Woolpert fully understands that the City of Santa Ana needs a Trimble Cityworks support Consultant who can provide remote
support assistance on an as-needed basis. Support services could include a wide array of support including troubleshooting,
reporting, configuration, integrations, GIS consulting and support, and various other technical support items as listed within the RFP.
More than any other Cityworks consultant, Woolpert understands what the City needs: we have been providing these services
since 2018.
We understand the main purpose of this contract is to provide remote on-call, on-demand Cityworks support services, including GIS.
However, we also recognize that this contract could also be used for new project-related work that could include on-site services
and Cityworks implementations for additional departments and divisions within the City’s organization.
Approach to Scope of Services
Over the full life of a contract like this, Woolpert’s support typically involves three main types of approaches:
1. Undefined on-call, on-demand support services.
2. Small defined project tasks.
3. New project implementations.
Type 1: Undefined On-Call On-Demand Support Services
To make sure that the City can access Woolpert’s staff on short notice for technical support, Woolpert and the City will authorize a
specific dollar amount allocated to time and material support services. Through this authorization, Woolpert will track the time
spent to support the City in their requests and bill for the work (no more than monthly). This approach is effective for unplanned
support when quick assistance is required.
Type 2: Small Defined Project Tasks
When smaller improvements and support can be planned, such as upgrading Cityworks versions or integrating with a new City 311
system, Woolpert and the City will follow a detailed planning approach. For these planned activities, the City will inform Woolpert
that additional support services are required. Woolpert and the City will discuss the necessary services and document the support
services to be performed. Before performing any services, Woolpert or the City will document the following in writing:
• Services to be provided.
• Deliverables to be submitted.
• Assumptions pertaining to the provided services.
• Woolpert responsibilities.
• City responsibilities.
• Schedule.
• Woolpert fees.
Under Woolpert’s current contract with the City, these smaller projects were completed on either a time and material or a Project
Lump Sum fee basis.
Type 3: New Project Implementations
For larger projects or new Cityworks implementations for new departments or divisions, a more detailed and methodical approach is
best. To achieve the best success, Woolpert will engage in comprehensive discussions with the City’s staff before formalizing the
scope of work (SOW), thoroughly reviewing goals, objectives, future strategies, expectations, and project prerequisites. Our
experience has shown that conducting a series of discovery workshops prior to SOW finalization substantially mitigates the risk of
project delays and minimizes the necessity for project change orders.
Woolpert’s Cityworks AMS system implementations can be grouped into one of three types of implementations:
• Rapid ReadyTM – Powered by Cityworks AMS software, Woolpert's Rapid ReadyTM stands as a pre-configured solution engineered
for swift deployment, taking mere months to be operational and at a fraction of the cost typically associated with implementing a
conventional work order management system. Merging the excellence of Cityworks' premier asset management system features
City Council 16 – 61 3/4/2025
CITY OF SANTA ANA | TRIMBLE CITYWORKS CONSULTANT SERVICES 12
with Woolpert's industry-leading CMMS/Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) proficiency, Rapid ReadyTM emerges as a ready-to-
go solution that seamlessly encompasses service requests, inspections, and work order management that are crucial for diverse
organizations. By adopting Rapid ReadyTM, clients gain the capability to efficiently record issue reports, document maintenance
tasks, and monitor associated costs in a structured manner, fostering enhanced reporting accuracy and process enhancements.
This was the approach that Woolpert and the City of Santa Ana followed for the deployment of Cityworks for the Parks and
Recreation Maintenance Department.
• Templated Configuration – Drawing from our wealth of experience spanning hundreds of system implementations, Woolpert has
meticulously crafted Cityworks implementation templates. These templates are thoughtfully structured, drawing on industry best
practices and the profound insights gleaned from our intimate collaborations with clients. A templated configuration encompasses
pre-configured work orders, service requests, and tailored inspections, with customization applied to suit the unique demands of
each implementing department. This customization routinely involves essential elements like data migration, comprehensive
reviews of GIS asset data, and the incorporation of specific configuration prerequisites tailored to the client's precise needs.
• Full Configuration – Larger asset management implementations, and implementations for clients who are replacing an existing
system often fall into this category. These implementations still start with a Woolpert standard base configuration, but it is
customized to meet specific requirements of the client. They could include any mix of the following:
• Specific business process
workflows definition.
• Asset data review/geodata base
design.
• Asset data migration.
• Asset management consulting
services (policy, strategy, and
asset management plans).
• Storeroom materials
management.
• System integrations.
• Work history data review and
migration.
• Custom report development.
• Mobile AMS solution
development and deployment.
• Train-the-trainer and end-user
training.
• Post go-live extended review and
modifications.
• Administrative support services.
• Post go-live ad-hoc support.
This was the approach that Woolpert and the City of Santa Ana followed for the original Cityworks deployment for the Public
Works Department.
A partnership with Woolpert offers several significant benefits. From the initial planning and design activities all the way through
project review and organization-wide adoption, your staff and concerned stakeholders will have direct access to industry-leading
project management, GIS, asset management, engineering, business consulting, and information technology experts. Woolpert’s
team is ready to roll up our sleeves and work on your behalf to deliver professional services you and your community are
envisioning.
Deliverables, Implementation Plan, Timeline
Without a defined SOW, it is not possible to provide a list of deliverables, implementation plan, or timeline. However, for any
planned project work under this contract, Woolpert will outline these items in detail, as has been done under the current contract
with the City of Santa Ana.
Woolpert’s standard implementation plan uses a three-phase
approach to implementing a content-rich EAM solution. Each of the
phases are executed in conjunction with continuous project
management and is designed with an emphasis on knowledge
transfer, change readiness, and quality management activities.
Deliberate execution of each phase, including continuous
involvement and feedback from our client counterparts, enables
Woolpert to plan, design, configure, and deploy an asset
management solution that is useful immediately upon “go-live.” Our
solutions provide the systems and processes to support current and
planned asset management activities, as well as the means to
monitor and measure continuous improvement.

3.6 End User Training.
3.7 Go-Live Support.
3.8 Phase 3 Acceptance and Close.
Within Woolpert’s implementation work plans, each subtask will clearly identify Woolpert deliverables/responsibilities, task
assumptions, and City responsibilities. This process aims to define what will be completed, what will be delivered, and under what
conditions. It helps to reduce risks of misunderstanding and improves clarity.
As demonstrated in the example below, Woolpert utilizes Microsoft Project to create a comprehensive project schedule that
outlines all sub-tasks defined within the SOW.

DISCUSSION
Background
In 1991, the City Council adopted the 3.9-mile Bristol Street Environmental Impact
Report and Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan (amended March 2018). The plans
incorporate Complete Streets standards, including wider sidewalks and landscaped
buffers for pedestrians and bike lanes (Exhibit 1). These improvements will result in
greater safety and mobility for all users, improve traffic flow, and enhance streetscape
aesthetics. Bristol Street is classified as a north-south major Arterial per the City’s
General Plan Circulation Element and the County of Orange’s Master Plan of Arterial
Highway. In anticipation of population growth, traffic congestion, and safety concerns,
the City and Orange County Transportation Agency (OCTA) have identified Bristol
Street corridor for major improvements to provide adequate vehicular capacity and
multimodal improvements.
Bristol Street improvements is a long-term project being completed in 5 major phases
as funding becomes available. The initial phases (1 and 2) were completed in 2002,
which included improvements from St. Andrew Place to McFadden Avenue and from
Elm Street to Memory Lane. Since then, enhancements have been made at key
intersections, such as Bristol Street and Warner Avenue, Bristol Street and 17th Street,
as well as segments between McFadden Avenue and Civic Center Drive, and from
Washington Avenue to 18th Street. Additionally, on September 17, 2024, City Council
approved the construction contract award of Bristol Improvements Phase 3, from Civic
City Council 17 – 2 3/4/2025

Center Drive to Washington Avenue, which is currently under construction. The
remaining segment of Bristol Street improvements from 18th Street to Elm Street (Phase
5) will need to be prioritized for funding allocation comes available.
Bristol Improvements Phase 4
The proposed Phase 4 construction contract will improve Bristol Street from Warner
Avenue to St. Andrew Place (Exhibit 2). Improvements include roadway widening from
two to three lanes in each direction with bus islands to accommodate future bicycle
lanes as further explained below, wider sidewalks, parkways, and a raised landscape
median. Other major infrastructure improvements include replacing the water main line,
undergrounding overhead utilities, and installing a new storm drain system. The project
will also include sound walls adjacent to residential parcels. Once completed, these
improvements will enhance vehicle capacity, the ride quality, and visual appearance of
the Bristol Street corridor.
The City was conditionally awarded federal funding from the California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans) to construct Class IV protected bicycle lanes on Bristol Street
from Warner Avenue to Edinger Avenue in June 2019. As required, the City applied to
Caltrans for authorization to proceed to construction and bundle the protected bicycle
lane improvements into a single Phase 4 construction contract as was done with the
Phase 3 improvements. Caltrans informed staff that additional (new) reviews of
documents related to right of way certification would be required. Staff has all required
documentation but the Caltrans review and approval process may take between 6-12
months. In order to avoid any further delays in starting construction of Phase 4, staff
separated the protected bicycle improvements from this construction contract. The
protected bicycle improvements will be a separate future construction contract for City
Council consideration, and constructed concurrently and in coordination with this
construction contract once Caltrans authorizes construction funding. The Bristol Phase
4 contract includes many items of work which take significant time to construct including
underground utilities whereas the bicycle improvements are constructed near the end of
the project. Staff will be in routine communication with Caltrans to emphasize the
importance of a timely review and authorization to proceed to construction of the bicycle
lane work.
To ensure timely delivery and oversight of this major construction project, staff
recommends hiring a third party construction management company as has been done
to assist in the oversight of other major construction projects. On December 19, 2024,
the Public Works Agency (PWA) released Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 24-139, by
which it sought the services of a qualified consulting firm to lead efforts to provide
construction management and inspection services. The consultant shall provide general
construction management services to support construction efforts and assist in the
overall delivery of the project, including preconstruction tasks, managing construction,
and ensuring the work is completed in accordance with the contract documents, project

closeout, and commissioning phase. The consultant team will report directly to the City's
project manager.
Public Outreach and Contractor Participation
To provide an opportunity for local vendors to submit bids, the City notified a total of 117
regional vendors via PlanetBids, many of which are Santa Ana based. Furthermore,
staff specifically reached out to Santa Ana vendors to encourage their participation in
bids. A total of six bids were received. No bids were received from Santa Ana
contractors.
As legally required, a Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the Orange County Register
newspaper on November 22, 2024. The project was also advertised in PlanetBids from
November 20, 2024 to December 19, 2024. Bids were received electronically via
PlanetBids on December 19, 2024.
One bid protest was received by the third-lowest bidder, Nationwide Contracting
Services, Inc., against the second lowest bidder, Los Angeles Engineering, and the
lowest bidder, Sully-Miller Contracting, regarding their responsiveness to the bid
proposal requirements. Upon review, City staff determined the protest content invalid
and rejected the bid protest on January 14, 2025. Staff deemed the protest immaterial
and recommends awarding the project to the lowest responsible bidder, Sully-Miller
Contracting Company.

Willdan Anaheim, CA 3
Staff recommends awarding an agreement for construction management and inspection
services to Cannon Corporation (Cannon) based upon the scope of work and selection
criteria outlined in RFP 24-139 (Exhibit 5). Their proposal demonstrated the firm has the
necessary capacity and expertise to complete the required services. The firm’s rates are
reasonable and within industry standard, the team qualifications are appropriate for this
project, and the proposal was determined to provide the best value for the City.
Project Delivery
To deliver a complete project, in addition to the construction contract, the estimated total
project delivery cost includes a budget allocation for construction administration,
inspection, and testing. Construction administration and inspection may be performed
by either Staff or consultants and includes construction management, inspection of the
Contractor’s work to ensure contract compliance, workmanship and quality, materials
testing, and implementation of the labor requirements.
Any of the allocated construction administration funds not spent are considered project
savings and are returned to the respective fund balance upon close out of the project.
In addition to the Construction Contract Bid Amount, Staff requests that City Council
allocate and authorize a project contingency budget equal to 10% of the Contract Bid
Amount. The recommended contingency budget will allow Staff to execute contract
change orders in the event unexpected conditions arise or if additional work is required
to effectively deliver and complete the project.
As indicated in the Cost Analysis (Exhibit 6) and as summarized in the table below, the
estimated total construction delivery cost of the project is $26,994,144.

The City had been awarded an OCTA M2 grant of $7,501,206 for street improvement
related expenditures. The City is responsible for funding the balance of street
improvements plus the costs of underground utility improvements. Construction costs
have rapidly escalated in the past four (4) years. According to the California Department
of General Services, California Construction Cost Index (CCCI), the average cost of
construction has increased by 34.4% in the past four (4) years (since 2021), over
double the rate for the previous five-year period (2016-2020). Staff applied for
additional construction funds and, on April 10, 2023, OCTA replaced the previous award
amount and awarded the City a total of $11,910,061. In addition to this grant, the City
will fund the balance of improvements from gas tax revenues, General Fund, water
capital, developer impact fees, and proceeds from sale of remnant Bristol properties.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. EIR No. 89-01 was filed for the
Bristol Street Improvements Project (Exhibit 7) in 1991. The proposed project continues
to meet the parameters of the CEQA Guidelines and EIR No. 89-01. On April 7, 2015,
the Santa Ana City Council adopted a resolution approving an addendum to the Final
Environmental Impact/Statement for the segment of Bristol Street between Warner
Avenue and St. Andrew Place.
FISCAL IMPACT
As indicated in the Cost Analysis, the estimated total construction delivery cost of the
project is $26,994,144. All funds are available for expenditure in Fiscal Year 2024-25.
Any remaining balances not expended at the end of the current fiscal year will be
presented to the City Council for approval to carry forward to Fiscal Year 2025-2026

Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
March 2018
Page | 1
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Preface
The Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan Amendment provides
the framework for future development of a 3.9-mile section of
the Bristol Street Corridor in the central portion of the City of
Santa Ana. The Plan, which has been developed in accordance
with existing environmental conditions, City planning policies,
and input from City staff and decision-makers, provides a
comprehensive land use program and urban design guide for
the area along with goals and policies to guide the future
public and private actions relating to the area’s development.
In addition, the plan includes a strategy for its implementation
and mechanisms to insure that development proposed by area
landowners will be coordinated and occur in an orderly,
planned manner.
1.2 The Specific Plan
In 1991, the City of Santa Ana determined that a specific plan
was the appropriate planning mechanism to guide long-range
development of the Bristol Street Corridor. A specific plan is a
planning and regulatory tool made available to local
governments by the State of California. By law, specific plans
are intended to implement a city or county’s general plan
through the development of policies, programs, and
regulations which provide an intermediate level of detail
between the general plan and individual development
projects. As vehicles for the implementation of the goals and
policies of a community’s general plan, State law requires that
specific plans can only be adopted or amended if they are
consistent with the jurisdiction’s adopted general plan.
The authority to prepare and adopt specific plans and the
requirements for its contents are set forth in the California
Government Code (Planning and Zoning Law), Title VII,
Chapter 3, Article 8, Sections 65450 through 65457. The law
requires that a specific plan include text and diagrams
specifying:
The distribution, location, and intensity of land uses,
including open space, within the plan area;
The distribution, location, and capacity of infrastructure,
including transportation, water, storm drainage, solid
waste, and energy systems;
Design standards and criteria for development and use of
natural resources; and
An implementation program, including capital
improvement plans, regulation and financing strategies.
This Specific Plan provides the framework for the future use
and form for development along the Bristol Street Corridor
through to ultimate build out of the area. The adopted plan
provides a public planning document that will act as an
extension of the General Plan, and be used as both a policy
and a regulatory document. When private development
proposals for the planning area are brought before the City,
the Planning staff will use the Specific Plan as a guide for
project review. Projects will be evaluated on their consistency
with the intent of plan policies and conformance with
development standards and design guidelines. For projects
with the Bristol Street planning area, policies and standards in
the Specific Plan will take precedence over more general
City Council 17 – 15 3/4/2025

policies and standards applied throughout the rest of the city.
In situations where policies or standards relating to a
particular subject have not been provided in the Specific Plan,
the existing policies and standards of the City’s General Plan
and Zoning Ordinance will continue to apply.
The adoption of the Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
constitutes a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA). As such, the Plan is subject to
environmental review in accordance with CEQA statues. The
Specific Plan was originally developed to conform to and
implement the policies and improvements identified in the
Bristol Corridor Redevelopment Plan adopted by the City of
Santa Ana on December 4, 1989. In conjunction with the
Redevelopment Plan, the City prepared an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) (Bristol Street Widening
Environmental Impact Statement, FHWA-CA-EIS-89-01-D,
Willdan Associates) to analyze the effects and propose
necessary mitigation for the prior Redevelopment Plan’s
principal action which is the widening of Bristol Street. The
Specific Plan has therefore been developed to also be
consistent with and sensitive to environmental conditions
identified in the EIS, and to implement City-adopted mitigation
measures.
In addition, environmental review and assessment of the
Specific Plan was addressed through preparation of an
environmental Initial Study Checklist which found that the
City’s Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) No. 88-1, Bristol
Corridor Redevelopment Project (State Clearinghouse No.
87101404), was adequate to serve as the environmental
documentation for the Specific Plan.
To keep the Specific Plan as concise as possible, much of the
environmental background data has not been included in this
plan document. For additional information relating to the
environmental foundation of the plan, one should refer to the
Bristol Street Widening EIS and EIR 88-1 which can be obtained
from the City Planning Division. Although the environmental
documentation has been included in a separate document, it
is important to note that environmental factors have been an
integral component of the planning process from the very
beginning to ensure sensitivity to critical environmental
concerns.
1.3 Specific Plan Amendment
The Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan land use plan was
amended (Bristol from Washington Street to 17th Street) and
(Bristol from Civic Center to 17th Street and Warner Avenue to
St. Andrew Place) to accommodate remnant parcels of land
acquired by the City as a result of the widening of Bristol
Street. The amendment identifies zoning designations for
parcels within the corridor based on new street right-of-way
designs and compatibility with existing land uses.
An addendum to EIR 88-1 has also been prepared to address
the minor land use revisions of the Specific Plan amendment.
The addendum has identified that environmental impacts are
less than significant, and that the general findings and
conclusions of the previous EIR are still applicable.
1.4 Organization of the Plan
The Specific Plan is organized to provide a step-by-step
understanding of the Plan’s components and the rationale
behind its policy recommendations, design concepts, and
implementation measures. The first three chapters are
primarily descriptive, describing the plan, its purpose, the
planning context, planning goals, and an outline of the
principal planning concepts. The development standards,
design guidelines, and implementation measures which will
regulate future development are presented in subsequent
chapters. The policies, standards, guidelines, and
implementation measures in the plan are organized to
correspond to categories established by City and State General
Plan guidelines (i.e. Land Use, Circulation, Urban Design, and
Implementation).
Chapters in the Specific Plan include:
1. Introduction – establishes the broad purpose of the
Specific Plan, describes the legislative authority under
which specific plans exist, outlines the organization of
the Plan.
2. Planning Context – summarizes the general conditions
and sequence of events leading up to the Plan’s
preparation.
3. Planning Area Description – describes the location and
general character of the planning area, and identifies
key factors that influenced the Plan’s form and
policies.

development of streets, yards, open space, grading,
siting, landscaping, buildings, and other physical
features.
7. Implementation Program – describes policies,
regulations, and ordinances that must be adopted or
amended to implement the plan and identifies
development approval procedures, capital
improvements, and development phasing
recommendations.

Chapter 2 Planning Context
2.1 Background and Need for Plan
Former Bristol Corridor Redevelopment Plan
On December 4, 1989 the City of Santa Ana adopted a
redevelopment plan for the area referred to as the Bristol
Corridor. The project area included parcels on either side of
Bristol Street extending from Central Avenue on the south to
the northernmost edge of the Bristol Marketplace on the
north (i.e. just south of 21st Street). Along Bristol Street, the
average width of the development area was approximately
750 feet. At First Street and 17th Street, the development
area extended east and west along both sides of these two
cross streets.
The Bristol Street Corridor is a major north-south corridor
through the City of Santa Ana. The street, which is designated
as a Major Arterial Highway in the Orange County Master Plan
of Arterial Highways (MPAH), serves as a vital north-south
transportation link which has regional as well as local
significance. The roadway also serves as the designated truck
route through the central section of Santa Ana. Consistent
with the high levels of traffic that move through the area, land
use patterns along the Corridor reflect the importance of the
area within the City’s overall urban fabric. The City of Santa
Ana General Plan Circulation Element shows the corridor
having four major commercial nodes distributed along the
length of the corridor; South Bristol Center, North Bristol
Center, College Center, and an extension of the Civic Center
District. These commercial areas are intended as mixed use
development areas whose primary function is to provide retail
services in support of surrounding neighborhoods but which
also provide recreational, cultural and educational facilities
and activities, employment. Residential neighborhoods fill the
areas that separate the four District Centers.
Historically, the need for the Bristol Corridor Redevelopment
Plan arose out of the fact that the area was not physically or
economically meeting its designated potential as either a
major transportation or commercial corridor. Overall, the
Corridor suffered from negative physical and visual
characteristics typically associated with strip development.
Large sections of the Corridor were depressed or economically
failing. As development occurred over the years, the land use
pattern became increasingly haphazard as residential lots
fronting the Corridor have been converted to various
commercial and office type uses. Development standards
along the Corridor varied widely, compounding the perception
of disorder.
Prior to the 1990s, many of the older development areas were
in poor physical condition, and the economic incentive was
absent to renovate and upgrade these properties. At that
time, Bristol Street itself no longer had adequate capacity to
accommodate the traffic volumes. During peak-hour periods
the Corridor suffered from significant congestion with many
segments and intersections operating at levels of service
which were below acceptable urban standards. This
congestion not only causes annoying delays for traffic, but also
resulted in an increased occurrence of traffic accidents and
injuries.

The Bristol Corridor Redevelopment Plan was approved, in
1989, as a mechanism for alleviating existing problems
through a process of development, rehabilitation, and
revitalization. While it did not provide a detailed plan for how
this would be accomplished, it created a framework within
which specific projects and improvements can begin to take
place. The general direction established for the development
of the Bristol Corridor area was first set forth in the former
Redevelopment Plan goals and objectives, which can be
summarized as follows:
Reduce and prevent blight conditions;
Widen and improve Bristol Street;
Promote new and continuing private sector investment;
Establish a higher quality urban design character;
Retain and expand as many existing businesses as
possible;
Provide for increased revenues to the City;
Preserve the existing employment base and create new
job opportunities;
Replan, redesign, and redevelop areas which are stagnant
or underutilized;
Eliminate or ameliorate environmental deficiencies;
Expand the community’s supply of housing, including low-
and moderate-income units;
Reduce City costs for providing services to the area; and
Protect existing neighborhoods and housing from adverse
impacts associated with new development.
Bristol Street Widening Project
As can be seen in the prior list of development goals and
objectives, the only specific project proposed by the former
redevelopment plan was the widening of Bristol Street. The
widening of the roadway to accommodate existing and
projected traffic levels represented the keystone to the whole
development process, without which the successful
revitalization of the corridor would be highly unlikely. For this
reason the City of Santa Ana undertook a study, in 1989, to
determine the most appropriate means of expanding the
capacity of the Bristol Street Corridor to accommodate both
existing and projected traffic levels. At that time, Bristol Street
was a four-lane, undivided arterial between Warner Avenue
and Memory Lane. To the north and south of this section, the
roadway was already six lanes. This narrower section of the
roadway was responsible for much of the capacity limitations
along the Corridor.
An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was prepared in
conjunction with the Bristol Street Widening study to evaluate
the potential impacts associated with such a project. Four
possible alternatives were evaluated in the Draft EIS and
public hearings held on the environmental document. Based
on the findings of the EIS and the public comment on the
project, the City Council selected a preferred alternative which
incorporated a combination of the characteristics of each of
the preliminary alternatives.
The preferred alternative was formulated with careful
consideration given to the social, environmental, and fiscal
costs of the final solution. Given the narrow existing right-of-

way between Warner Avenue and Memory Lane at the time,
acquiring additional needed right-of-way and the related
impacts of such land acquisition (i.e., residential and business
displacement) was a major issue addressed in the EIS. Public
comments on the project generally supported the need for the
widening, provided that affected property owners would be
adequately compensated for the economic costs resulting
from the project. In addition, a major concern was that the
widening should not adversely affect the several major
community facilities currently located along this segment of
the corridor: Mater Dei High School, Santa Ana College,
Santiago Elementary School, and the John Garthe Reservoir.
As adopted in 1991, the preferred alternative called for the
widening of a 3.9-mile section of Bristol Street between
Warner Avenue and Memory Lane from four lanes to six lanes.
In order to avoid impacts on major community facilities, the
widened roadway would have a meandering centerline shift.
While right-of-way along most of the corridor would be
acquired equally from both sides of the roadway, in areas
adjacent to the major public facilities, all the right-of-way
would be acquired from the side opposite the facility. Further
widening would be provided at key intersections to
accommodate additional right and left turn lanes and bus
turnouts. To accommodate the proposed right-of-way widths,
a section as much as 20- to 60-feet deep would need to be
acquired from the frontage of existing developed parcels. The
widened street section itself would provide for three travel
lanes in each direction with a 14-foot wide, raised center
median that could be fully or partially landscaped (Figure 5-6).
The findings of the EIS indicated that the street widening
project would have a number of beneficial effects on the
Bristol Street Corridor including improved drainage, air
quality, aesthetics, circulation, and noise attenuation.
Adverse impacts related to the street widening included the
potential displacement of existing residential and business
uses, and potential short-term construction impacts relating
to circulation, noise, dust, and utility relocation.
Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
The Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan was originally
prepared as a direct consequence of the policies, goals,
objectives, and improvements approved and adopted as part
of the former Bristol Corridor Redevelopment Plan and the
Bristol Street Widening Project. Its function is twofold. First,
the Plan is a tool for implementing mitigation measures to
reduce identified impacts. Specifically, the Plan identifies
which existing uses can be retained, where displaced uses can
be relocated within the planning area, how to reuse irregular
and substandard parcels created by the right-of-way
acquisition, and how to best address environmental
constraints such as noise.
Secondly, the Specific Plan is a mechanism for addressing in a
more detailed fashion, the goals and objectives in the City’s
General Plan. The Bristol Street Widening Project, because
with the right-of-way acquisition, creates an excellent
opportunity to move forward while achieving other
development objectives. Specifically, the Plan continues to
reexamine stagnant, underutilized, or disturbed parcels;
reduce blighted conditions by identifying structures which
need to be removed; mitigate environmental impacts and
compatibility conflicts with adjacent residential
neighborhoods; and provide landscape and urban design
guidelines which will upgrade the overall character of the
corridor. These improvements have attracted new private
sector investment to the area and improved the business

Chapter 3 Planning Area
Description
3.1 Location
Bristol Street is located in the City of Santa Ana. The street is
a north-south transportation corridor which runs the length of
the city bisecting it into two areas of approximately equal size.
Bristol Street, which is aligned parallel to and one mile west of
the Main Street corridor, Santa Ana’s principal north-south
urban spine, extends north to provide connections to the
Garden Grove, Santa Ana, and Orange Freeways, and to the
south to provide connections with the San Diego and Costa
Mesa/Newport Freeways. Figure 3-1 shows the location of the
planning area within the citywide context.
The planning area extends along both sides of Bristol Street in
the area between Warner Avenue and Santiago Creek, a
section of approximately 3.9 miles in length. Within this
section, several major east-west streets intersect Bristol
Street, including, from north to south, 17th Street, First Street,
McFadden Avenue, Edinger Avenue, and Warner Avenue. The
depth of the planning area from the roadway varies
throughout the length of the Corridor. Property located within
the planning area corresponds to those parcels identified by
the former City Redevelopment Agency as being subject to
eminent domain procedures as a result of right-of-way
acquisition requirements of the Bristol Street Widening
Project. Figure 3-2 shows the boundaries of the entire
planning area.
While Santiago Creek acts as a defined visual entry into the
corridor from the north, there is no equivalent sense of entry
from the south. The intersection of Bristol Street and Warner
Avenue, while being the project boundary as far as the Specific
Plan is concerned, is not distinguished from those further to
the south. For this reason, it is recommended that the
standards and guidelines developed for this Specific Plan also
be applied south of Warner Avenue to Sunflower Street, which
is the city boundary

3.2 Planning Area Character
Development and Land Use Character
Bristol Street is a straight and practically flat (average slope of
0.4 percent) urban corridor with a north-south alignment
consistent with the grid pattern street system that
predominates in Santa Ana. The roadway extends through a
completely urbanized area which includes a mixture of
commercial, residential, and public facility uses. Historically,
the area was characterized by a haphazard mixture of
buildings of different types and uses, physical condition, and
age. The contrast between old and new was quite pronounced
and contributed to a disjointed, generally unappealing
character.
Historically, the development character along the corridor
changed in a piecemeal fashion over the years as traffic
volumes on Bristol Street increased and uses along the
corridor became more auto-oriented.
Most of the planning area was initially developed with
residential uses, and then as the community grew and
development patterns changed, strip commercial and other
uses began to incrementally displace the residential uses. The
displacement started at the intersections and extended
toward mid-block. In several locations within the area, single
family residences that front on Bristol Street were converted
to commercial and office uses with little or no change to the
structure’s exterior other than signage. In other areas, single-
family homes continue to front onto the Corridor.
Within the area, there was a perceptible transition in the age
of development from north to south, with age increasing as
one moves south along the corridor. With the increase in age
also came a corresponding deterioration in the physical
condition of the properties and a decline in the general level
of maintenance. Newer development within the area was
scattered throughout the Corridor. However, most of it was
located at the intersections with major cross streets.
In addition to the discrepancies in the character and age of the
structures along the Corridor, the area was also characterized
by features that are fairly typical of strip development areas
and which detract from the area’s visual character. These
features included an uncoordinated clutter of billboards and
signs, overhead power lines, and inconsistent public
improvement standards. In general, signage along Bristol
Street was of a very low quality and indicated the presence of
businesses with little or no resources, ability, interest, or need
to upgrade sign quality or character. Temporary signs added
to the overall low quality of signage along portions of Bristol
Street.
The level of amenity provided along the corridor was generally
low, with only a minimal area devoted to landscaping, street
furniture, or other improvements that would contribute to the
visual character of the street. Without exception, existing
commercial parking lots, which comprised a significant portion
of the Bristol Street frontage, were almost completely
unlandscaped.
Businesses in the planning area were, and continue to be,
predominantly local-serving in character. Many people have
been observed walking from adjacent residential areas to
nearby shopping areas such as the supermarkets on the
southwest corner of Bristol Street and McFadden Avenue.
The majority of the commercial uses along the corridor were
City Council 17 – 25 3/4/2025
Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
March 2018

located in strip malls and only a handful of commercial
businesses were located in freestanding structures
(frequently in converted residences). Among the service type
businesses, there are a number of small personal and
professional services businesses offering medical, dental,
personal care, financial, and day-care services.
The major exception to the pattern of small commercial
centers and individual uses is Bristol Marketplace, an
approximately 38-acre commercial and shopping center
located at the northwest corner of Bristol Street and 17th
Street. The concentrations of commercial uses that occur
along the Bristol Street Corridor are located in the following
areas:
Southwest corner of Edinger Avenue and Bristol Street;
Northwest corner of Edinger Avenue and Bristol Street.
Bristol Street, between McFadden Avenue and Brook
Street;
Southeast corner of Bristol Street and Civic Center Drive;
Southeast corner of Bristol Street and Washington
Avenue;
Southwest corner of Bristol Street and Washington
Avenue;
Northwest and Northeast corner of Bristol Street and 17th
Street;
Southwest corner of Bristol Street and McFadden Ave
Bristol Street, between 3rd Street to 5th Street
Bristol Street, between 7th Street and 9th Street
Bristol Street, between Warner Ave and St. Gertrude
Street
The newer strip malls can be distinguished from the older strip
malls in their enhanced architectural style versus a plain
rectangular shaped architectural style that characterizes the
older strip malls, specifically those located on North Bristol
Street.
In addition to housing and commercial uses, there are a
number of community and educational facilities which are not
in, but adjacent to, the planning area. Eight schools are
located along the Bristol Street Corridor:
Jose Andres Sepulveda Elementary School (1818 South
Bristol Street);
Mater Del High School (1202 West Edinger Avenue).
Santa Ana College Digital Media Center (1300 South Bristol
Street);
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School (1001 South
Graham Lane);
Carver Elementary School (1401 West Santa Ana Blvd);
Santa Ana College (1530 West 17th Street);
Gonzalo and Felicitas Mendez Fundamental Intermediate
School (2000 North Bristol Street);
Santiago Elementary School (2212 North Baker Street);
In addition to the schools, there are also two-day care
centers/preschools along the Corridor:
Love 2 Learn Preschool (1200 West 17th Street)
Santa Ana Campus Early Childhood Education Center
(1720 West 17th Street)

Finally, at the north end of the planning area adjacent to
Santiago Creek and the east side of Bristol Street, is a city-
owned reservoir.
Socio-Economic Character
As indicated by the physical character of the street, the
planning area is a low to moderate income area. The City’s
2014 Housing Element indicated that approximately 54
percent of the households in the City have annual incomes of
less than 80 percent of the county median income.
The City’s 2015 Housing Element also indicates the City has
11,370 extremely, which is considered low income
households. In 1990 the population was approximately
293,742 and it rose to 340,338 citywide in 2009 – a 16 percent
increase in population – making Santa Ana the most populous
city in Orange County according to the 2009 U.S. Census
population estimates. In 2010, the US Census estimated the
citywide median income was $54,421 which is slightly lower
than the $57,384 median income for the Anaheim-Santa Ana-
Garden Grove Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Although the spread may not appear to be significant, the
slight differentiation of Santa Ana’s average household
income from the larger Metropolitan Statistical Area average
may be attributed to the higher density per square mile in
Santa Ana. Santa Ana’s household size is 4.4 (according to
the2014 Housing Element) and is the 10th highest average
household size in the nation. The average is even higher in the
census tracts adjacent to the Bristol Street Corridor, which has
a 4.69 average household size.
A more accurate assessment of the poverty level in Santa Ana
can be better reflected in the per-capita income, which
averages $16,521, whereas the average per-capita income for
the Anaheim-Santa Ana-Garden Grove Metropolitan
Statistical Area is approximately $20,002. The average per-
capita income for Orange County is $33,901.
The population in the planning area vicinity is characterized by
a large percentage of ethnic minorities, particularly Hispanic
residents, which make up approximately 46 percent; White
residents make up 24 percent, while the other 24 percent is
made up of people reporting to be of one other race. These

numbers are based on the census tracts adjacent to the
project area.
Housing in the planning area is predominantly single family
with more than 87 percent of the units being detached single
family homes. The remaining housing consists of duplex units.
Altogether 105 housing units have been identified in the
planning area. Of these, 92 are single-family units and 13 are
duplex units. The housing located south of First Street tends
to be more uniformly single family in character, while most of
the duplex units are located north of 1st Street, with a large
concentration located between 21st Street and Santa Clara
Avenue on the west side of Bristol Street. The majority of
neighborhoods adjoining the planning area is well-maintained
and exhibit signs of relative stability. Those residential areas
exhibiting the greatest signs of neglect and deterioration are
on the east side of Bristol Street between Cubbon Street and
Richland Avenue and 3rd and 6th Streets. In the better
maintained areas along the Corridor, the residential
neighborhoods contain distinctive streetscape elements that
contribute to the character of the area, including
individualized wrought iron and masonry fences around front
yards, entry gates, porches, trees, lawns, and mature,
coordinated street-tree plantings.
There are approximately 118 businesses in the planning area,
most of which are small, community serving businesses,
ranging from laundromats, party rental stores, and local retail
selling apparel, auto accessories and cell phones. The larger
employers include large grocery and general merchandise
stores, which include Northgate Super Market, Smart and
Final, and Food 4 Less, and Target – all who employ a range of
approximately 50 to 100 employees. These establishments
typically hire a majority of their workers locally. In addition,
the number of local eating establishments, primarily
restaurant chains which employ anywhere from 15 to 20
employees, and the assumption that other local business
employ an average 4 people each, the employee base is
approximately 762 employees in the planning area.
Reflecting the local nature of much of the commercial and
service uses in the area, a large percentage of these
employees are of Hispanic descent. Precise figures on the
composition of the work force are not available. However,
statistics for the census tracts surrounding the planning area
indicate that roughly 56 percent of the labor force is employed
in blue collar jobs and the other 43 percent in white collar jobs.
The female population in the census tracts surrounding the
planning area is largely employed in the white collar sector, at
57 percent, whereas males in the same census tract area are
largely employed in the blue collar sector at 65 percent.
Unemployment figures for the area are also unavailable, but
based on the census tracts adjacent to the corridor, the
unemployment figures are 6 percent unemployment for the
male population and 9 percent unemployment for the female
population. The aggregate unemployment for the tracts
adjacent to the corridor is 7.5 percent based on 2005-2009
Census estimates. This is substantially lower than the Los
Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana Metropolitan area
unemployment rate, which, according to the U.S. Department
of Labor Statistics was 11.7 percent in 2010. However, the
unemployment rate figures for Santa Ana better reflect the
planning area unemployment rate prior to the 2008 recession
and not current levels of unemployment, which are not
available for the planning area.

Chapter 4 Planning Goals and
Objectives
4.1 Land Use
Goal:
Utilize the development of the Bristol Street Corridor as an
opportunity to upgrade the development character of the area
and to enhance the viability of those commercial enterprises
which remain.
Rationale:
There are a number of existing neighborhood shopping
centers and several adjacent blocks of street oriented
commercial development along the Bristol Street Corridor
which have the potential for continued operation. Many of
the existing businesses appear to be marginal in their
operation, but provide important services to the local
residents and would benefit from improved conditions along
the corridor which would make it more attractive. Other uses
detract from the character of the corridor and are less
dependent on their particular location. Widening of the
Corridor has affected many business operations with the
Corridor either by removing parking or structures. The Specific
Plan represents the opportunity to encourage and enhance
continued operation of those businesses which will contribute
most to the design and land use character chosen for the
corridor.
Objectives:
Relocate the mini-mall and strip commercial land uses that
are typical for high volume arterials from their mid-block
locations to new development on existing shopping center
sites or in new commercial buildings near the intersections
with major cross streets.
Encourage commercial activity along the corridor as a
means of generating revenues for the City through fees
and sales tax revenues.
Retain as many existing businesses as possible and
encourage their rehabilitation and possible expansion.
Businesses which serve and benefit local residents and
provide high levels of employment will receive highest
priority for retention and rehabilitation. Parcels which are
stagnant and underutilized will be re-planned.
Assemble parcels where necessary to provide adequate
replacement area for remaining businesses that have lost
important space or facilities to the road widening.
Replace residential uses fronting Bristol Street with others
compatible to the commercial character of the corridor.
Develop frontage parcels not to be of a type to detract
from the overall image and character of Bristol Street.
Goal:
Protect and enhance adjacent residential areas and
community facilities along the Bristol Street Corridor by
reducing the potential for adverse impacts related to traffic or
other uses within the corridor.
City Council 17 – 29 3/4/2025
Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
March 2018
Page | 16
Rationale:
High traffic volumes on Bristol Street and the related noise and
air quality conditions have already negatively impacted some
residential neighborhoods adjacent to the corridor. In
addition, the haphazard mix of uses and the absence of
consistent development standards in existing development
detracts from the overall character of the local community.
New development and use of the frontage parcels on Bristol
Street will reduce existing adverse conditions without
imposing additional impacts on adjacent areas that would
further erode the building fabric and quality of street life for
the neighborhoods.
Objectives:
Convert shallow frontage parcels adjacent to residential
areas, schools, or churches into landscape buffer areas.
Require visual screening and noise buffers between the
Bristol Street Corridor and adjacent residential and
community facility uses.
Establish standards for the type and placement of lighting
within the corridor that will minimize light and glare
nuisances in adjacent residential uses.
Establish land-uses and development standards and
guidelines that will consider security and privacy concerns
of uses adjacent to the corridor.
Develop guidelines for processing and approving new uses
in the planning area in the transition period between
adoption of the Specific Plan and its implementation.
Adjacent to residential areas, land uses should be
restricted to community facilities, neighborhood-serving
commercial and professional office uses; general retail
and other traffic-generating uses should be restricted to
frontage parcels and/or to corners on major cross streets.

4.2 Urban Design
Goal:
Create a distinctive visual image for the Bristol Street Corridor
which enhances its use as an urban corridor and as a center
for community-serving commercial uses.
Rationale:
The widening of Bristol Street to a six-lane arterial with an
extended median to control left turn movements will be a
physical expression of its importance to the city as a major
connector. The widening also provides the opportunity to
establish a unified and safe streetscape that can enhance
neighborhood character and contribute to community pride
by bringing more consistency to the land use character of the
corridor and removing certain deteriorated and visually
unattractive uses. Despite the projected increase in traffic on
the upgraded roadway, a unified design treatment within the
corridor, including landscaping, pavement treatments, street
furniture, and open space can also make Bristol Street more
accommodating to the pedestrian, and not just as a cross-
town corridor.
Objective:
Establish a unifying landscape image for the street using
the full range of available elements, including plant
materials, hardscape (i.e. pavement), lighting, signage and
street furniture.
Develop a landscape treatment that mitigates the
increased area devoted to paved roadway and provides an
attractive and effective buffer to the adjacent residential
neighborhoods.
Create a landscape plan for the corridor that is sensitive to
the consumption of water and long-term maintenance
costs.
Demonstrate principles of ‘green’ streets through the
implementation of various stormwater facility strategies,
such as inlets to vegetated swales, within parkways.
Establish site development criteria that will contribute to
a safe, attractive, and better defined street edge, and
which are responsive to the overall land use and design
concept for the corridor.
Establish design guidelines for the architecture and
signage.
Reduce visual clutter within the corridor by placing all
overhead utility lines underground.
Create open space areas which are attractive to the local
residents, responsive to their needs, and which will
encourage pedestrian activity.
4.3 Circulation
Goal:
Facilitate the safe and efficient movement of multimodal
traffic on Bristol Street.
Rationale:
Bristol Street is being widened to allow it to function as a high
volume arterial. Development and use of frontage parcels are
not to create access conditions which will conflict with the
efficient flow of traffic along the Bristol Street corridor.
Objectives:
Limit left turns to or from Bristol Street to major
intersections only.
Minimize the number of right-turn-in, right-turn-out
conditions along the Bristol Street frontage.
Utilize side streets and alleys for access to Bristol Street
frontage between major cross streets.
Reduce visual clutter along the street frontage to provide
safer driving conditions.
Provide facilities that will encourage the use of alternative
modes of transportation along the corridor.

Chapter 5 The Development
Plan
5.1 Plan Overview
The plan for Bristol Street facilitates optimum use of the
assembled parcels for development while mitigating adverse
circulation and environmental impacts resulting from the
street widening project.
The principal criteria used in determining the land’s optimum
use were parcel configuration and surrounding land uses. In
general, where the assembled land did not provide adequate
width or depth for standard commercial, office or residential
prototypes, the use was adjudicated to open space, or park.
Conversely, where the parcel dimensions were adequate for
development, commercial uses were considered in a manner
consistent with the General Plan and with sensitivity to the
scale and character of the adjacent neighborhoods.
Because the corridor exhibits the variety of land uses,
development intensities, building prototypes, multiple
neighborhood characters and will be divided into commercial
and open space zones, a principal purpose of the plan is to
treat the street as a binding agent that can unify the corridor
into a coherent whole. Attention has therefore been focused
on the street’s landscape treatment, particularly on the
selection and rhythm of trees which can impart a strong,
unifying image.
Proposed Land Uses
In general, the distribution of land uses responds to the City’s
General Plan intent to concentrate commercial uses at major
intersections, leaving the section of the Corridor between
these nodes for less intensive uses like office, residential or
open space.
There are four proposed land uses: Commercial,
corresponding to the City’s C-5 (Arterial Commercial Zoning
District); Office, or P (Professional Zoning District); Residential,
or R-1 (Single-Family Residential Zoning District), R-2 (Two-
Family Residential Zoning District), & R-3 (Multiple-Family
Residential Zoning District); and Park, or O (Open Space Zoning
District). One overlay use is proposed: a C-5 overlay on select
park areas. The commercial overlay zone is proposed as a
means to permit certain commercial uses on parcels with
configurations that are considered marginal for parking and/or
building footprints. While on these parcels, a park use is
considered most appropriate, commercial development
should be permitted as long as they meet zoning regulations
and Specific Plan guidelines.
Figure 5-1 shows the proposed land uses for the planning area.
Use Distribution
Table 5-1 Parcel Inventory, summarizes the net change in use
from what is existing to what is proposed. The specific use by
parcel was determined following a series of consultations with
the City Planning and Public Works Divisions.

5.2 Urban Design Concept
Overall Concept
The widened Bristol Street consists of commercial nodes at
major intersections linked by tree-lined, landscaped areas
serving as a buffer to the adjacent residential neighborhoods
(Figure 5-2). While small office and commercial development
may occasionally interrupt the open space buffer, the
continuity of the landscape at the street edge will not be
broken, giving the street the appearance of a continuous linear
parkway. Bristol Street will thus function as a limited access
commercial parkway.
This concept allows several benefits: it serves to enhance the
appearance of the Corridor as a major commercial spine
connecting the Santa Ana and San Diego freeways; it adds
value to the surrounding neighborhoods by creating a park-
like buffer; and it mitigates, through an urban reforestation
program, adverse visual and environmental impacts stemming
from the street widening.

Figure 5-3 Commercial Nodes
City Council 17 – 53 3/4/2025
Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
March 2018
Page | 40
Nodes, Links, and Destination Points
The design concept calls for the Plan to define and
differentiate areas along the corridor in order to mitigate its
haphazard, disordered appearance. By dividing the planning
area into a series of distinct nodes, links, and destination
points, the Plan will retain the corridor’s variety of uses while
adding definition and order to the overall development
pattern.
Identifiable nodes within the planning area generally
correspond to concentrations of commercial development
and occur at the major east-west cross streets. The nodes can
be divided into two broad categories relating to size and
market area served. The smaller, more local-serving areas are
designated as Neighborhood Activity (NA) nodes. The main
community-serving area is designated as the Community
Activity (CA) node (Figure 5-3).
The Community Activity Node is located in the area from First
Street north to Civic Center Drive. This area is envisioned as a
strong “town center” with intense commercial development
that stretches east-west as well as north-south and is
characterized by a commercial pedestrian promenade along
either side of Bristol Street.
Four Neighborhood Activity Nodes have been identified in the
area. The two larger nodes are located at the Warner
Avenue/Bristol Street intersection and at the 17th
Street/Bristol Street intersection. Two smaller nodes are
located at the Edinger Avenue and McFadden Avenue
intersections with Bristol Street. The Warner Avenue node
consists of existing commercial development on three corners,
with the fourth corner designated for park with commercial as
an option. The 17th Street node consists of the Bristol
Marketplace, Santa Ana College, and existing commercial uses
opposite the Bristol Marketplace. Redeveloped commercial is
proposed along Bristol opposite the college.
Whereas the two larger nodes tend to anchor either end of the
planning area, the two smaller nodes at McFadden and
Edinger Avenue are located in the middle of the corridor closer
together. At Edinger Avenue, existing commercial and Mater
Dei High School occupy the southern quadrants of the
intersection, while redeveloped commercial uses are
designated for the west side of Bristol Street north of Edinger
Avenue, and park area is designated along the east side of
Bristol Street. At McFadden Avenue, existing commercial
development will continue to occupy the southwest quadrant
while new development will occur on the two east-side
quadrants. The northwest quadrant of this intersection is
designated for park or school use with an option for
commercial use.
Links refer to the connections between nodes or major activity
centers. The plan concept is for commercial activity nodes to
be separated by street sections characterized by less active,
non-retail uses and by more intensive landscape treatments.
The links in the Plan generally belong in one of two categories,
“landscaped parkway” or “landscaped professional.” The
landscaped parkway links are those street sections where all
or most of the acquired land along the Bristol Street frontage
will be developed as landscaped open space. The following
links represent this characteristic: Warner Avenue to Edinger
Avenue, Cubbon Street to Myrtle Street, Civic Center Drive to
Washington Avenue, and 17th Street to the Santiago Creek.
The landscaped professional links are those Corridor sections
where non-retail uses are designated along the Corridor.
These areas will have special landscape requirements,
however, to ensure a consistent green spine between nodes.
In some cases, the professional links will only have new
development on one side of the corridor with parkway on the
other. The landscaped professional links include the sections
of Bristol Street between McFadden Avenue & Edinger Avenue
and McFadden Avenue & 1st Street. Figure 5-4 shows a
conceptual layout of structures, parking, sidewalks, and sound
walls along the length of the Bristol Street planning area.

The Streetscape
Transforming Bristol Street from a strip-commercial
thoroughfare into a verdant parkway brings to mind the great
European boulevards and their alleys and trees framing along
stretches of road. Using the “boulevard” as a streetscape
prototype on Bristol Street satisfies a key purpose of the plan:
to use the street as a strong, unifying element that gives
motorists a sense of continuity and visual clarity from
beginning to end. However, the open areas of the street
behind its edge must act as a buffer to adjacent residential
areas and provide a needed landscape amenity to pedestrians.
For these reasons, the streetscape must also function like a
park, allowing for a greater diversity of trees and a more varied
ground treatment that encourages strolling, gathering, or
stopping. The street must also accommodate commercial
uses at intersections and along several intersections of the
corridor between them. Therefore, special design
considerations are proposed for these areas so that they can
properly function as retail or office sites without disrupting the
continuity of the streetscape. In combination, the street edge,
the park areas and the commercial sites, yield the concept of
a “commercial parkway”. Such streetscapes are rare in this
region and nonexistent in Santa Ana.
Figure 5-5 and Figure 5-6 depict the three basic zones of the
parkway concept: the median and street edge zone, the
commercial zone, and the park zone.
Median and Edge Zone
The street median and the buffer strips within the public right-
of-way are the primary and essential footholds in which to
plant trees that can impart a strong, unifying quality to the
landscape (Figure 5-7).
For the median the proposed trees are Canary Island Date
Palms (Phoenix Canariensis), planted 35 to 45 feet on center
to establish a dramatic sight-line from one end of the corridor
to the other. Should these palms not be available in the
required sized and quantity at the time of installation of the
median, the Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera) should be used as
a substitute. Whichever tree is first planted, it should remain
as the sole median tree. A minimum palm size of 20 feet
brown-trunk height is recommended.
To frame the street in a boulevard fashion, a double, mixed
row of London Plan tree (Platanus acerifolia) and Jacaranda
(Jacaranda acutifolia) is proposed. The Jacarandas – also
noted as the official tree for the City of Santa Ana – would be
planted only in the interior or second row of the alley to add
variety and color to the street edge. They should be planted
in irregular spacing, at a 1:5 ratio (one Jacaranda for every five
Sycamores). Medians should be designed with maintenance-
access points at turn pockets. Median noses should be paved
with stamped concrete paving or other decorative paving.
Commercial Area Zone
Commercial development sites (which include all
Neighborhood Activity Nodes) require visibility both for
considerations of safety and advertisement. Palm trees are an
appropriate plant for these sites, as they provide visual
interest and shade without obstructing the view of storefronts
and signage. They would also reinforce the nodal structure of
the corridor, calling attention to the major commercial
intersections (Figure 5-8). Palms other than those used in the
median should be considered for these sites. Palms shall be
20 feet brown-trunk minimum.
At intersections, the sidewalks coming from the park areas
should be expanded to function more like plazas, with
emphasis on ornamental paving, site furnishings and planters.
Some of the plazas will also function as transit stops, allowing
for people to comfortably gather and wait for buses.
City Council 17 – 63 3/4/2025
Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
March 2018
Page | 50
Park Area Zone
These areas, which account for about one-third of the land in
the corridor, should be heavily planted with trees to maximize
their visual appeal and environmental value (Figure 5-9 &
Figure 5-10). To address the anticipated pedestrian use of the
park zone, a greater variety of species, planted in more
irregular patterns is proposed behind the street-edge zone.
The increase in species diversity and its informal placement
also serves to visually “mesh” the parkway vegetation into the
canopy of the adjacent residential areas. The ground plane
should be kept free of visual obstructions, with emphasis on
turf, ground cover, or optional decomposed granite coverage.
Figure 5-10 depicts the criteria for using decomposed granite
as an alternative to turf or ground cover planting. Trees should
be drip or flood-irrigated wherever possible while sod and
ground cover areas should be spray irrigated using low
gallonage, vandal resistant nozzles.
Within the park zone, the Community Activity Node stretching
from 1st Street to Civic Center Drive should receive special
treatment. Because the adjacent areas are mostly commercial
in character and/or are targeted for commercial
redevelopment there is a lesser need to create a “buffer”
landscape. Increased pedestrian activity should also be
expected. Therefore, more of the park area should be paved
in this section of the corridor, with regular tree planting
appearing to be “cutout” from a paved matrix, rather than the
other way around.
Within this node, the street intersections should be distinctive
features of the streetscape. At each intersections corner,
groves of palm trees, raised ornamental planters, shelters,
special paving and other visually strong and unique features
should be considered (Figure 5-11).
Sidewalks and Buffer Treatment
At the street edge is proposed either a 25-foot public buffer
containing a 10-foot sidewalk or a 14-foot public buffer
containing an 8-foot sidewalk (Figure 5-7). The initial Specific
Plan Street Alignment (SPSA) called for the sidewalk to be
immediately adjacent to the street curb. Following further
study it was determined that the sidewalk should be placed
behind the remaining 15-foot or 6-foot buffer corresponding
to the 25-foot and 14-foot public buffers, respectively. This
decision allowed the sidewalk to be placed between two rows
of trees thus acquiring the most amenable of all possible
alignments. Because the second or inner row of trees falls on
private property, the design guidelines calls for continuous
parking frontage whereby the trees could be planted on
regularly spaced planting islands.
The spacing of the trees, therefore, is subject to the rhythm of
the parking space. One tree every three spaces (9 feet per
space) yields a spacing of 36 feet, which is adequate. The two
rows should be planted in a staggered fashion to maximize
canopy cover over the sidewalk. Slight adjustments in the
placement of the trees should be exercised in order to
accommodate underground utilities and new street lighting.
Flexibility on the exact dimension of the buffer alignment of
the sidewalk will also be necessary. At Mater Dei High School,
for example, there is no room for the buffer strip. In this
instance the sidewalk will have to be placed adjacent to the
curb line and, if feasible, trees planted on school property to
preserve street-tree continuity. Similar variations may be
required on other existing developments according to land
availability. In such instances trees should be planted not
more than 36 feet on center, in tree wells if necessary.
Lighting
Standard street lighting will be provided as part of the street
widening project. However, given the extent of area proposed
for pedestrian use, supplementary lighting to achieve a 1-
footcandle illumination level will be necessary. Along
sidewalk, plaza areas and gathering areas along the parkway,
pedestrian-scaled fixtures should be provided. They should be
placed in continuous rows and matched in style throughout
the Corridor, both in private and public zones. Figure 5-12
illustrates the type of fixture proposed. These fixtures should
be spaced no more than five times their height (measured to
the light source) along the park zones and half as far in the
commercial zones, or as otherwise determined by an
engineer.

Walls
The Environmental Impact Statement requires the placement
of sound absorbing walls that are at least six-feet high on the
rear edge of the parcels abutting residential areas. The layout
guidelines for the walls as described in the Bristol Street
Widening Project should be maintained, with additional
considerations as follows:
The walls should be divided in three sections: straight
runs, ornamental runs, and end runs. The purpose is to
adjust the design of the walls according to their proximity
to pedestrian activity, which increases towards the side
streets.
o The “straight runs” occupy the mid-sections of the
wall between street intersections. These runs should
be plain and simple, constructed of a single material
and without excessive ornamentation. The walls
should be planted with vines to eliminate the
opportunity for graffiti and to soften the wall and add
to ‘green environment’.
o The “ornamental runs” extend 100 feet from a side
street right-of-way, and, owing to their proximity to
pedestrian activity, should offer more visual interest.
Espalier vines, colorful tiles, decorative caps and piers
should be considered as integral elements of the wall.
o The “end run” corresponds to the terminal sections of
the wall as they meet side streets. These sections
should be “opened-up” or perforated, allowing for
wrought iron or other see-through ornamentation,
including shrubbery, to soften their appearance as
they meet the side streets. The length of the “end
runs” should match adjacent building setbacks or be
about 20 feet in length, whichever is greater. The wall
ends should also act as “gateways” into the residential
areas. Pylons, posts, trellises or other similar features
should be considered, possibly incorporating
neighborhood identification signs and logos. The “end
runs” should be designed in pairs -two per side-street
- with each pair assuming a distinctive character
Figure 5-13 depicts the above concepts.
Figure 5-14 and Figure 5-15 depict the treatment at the end of
cul-de-sac streets.
Architectural Character
The commercial sites within the corridor are for the most part
small in area and therefore will be occupied by moderately
sized retail or office buildings. Following the land use concept,
these buildings will be spaced along the corridor rather than
grouped to form long, “hard” edges; they will appear more like
“structures in a park” than as a continuous urban frontage.
For this reason, the buildings should be designed so that all of
their visible sides display a reasonable architectural interest
and façade articulation. Exposed, blank walls should be
avoided. The emphasis should be on breaking the regularity
of buildings, on treating them like ornaments in the landscape,
with as much façade interest and articulation as possible
within the limits of feasibility. On long buildings (over 50 feet
in length), roof lines should be continuous but interrupted,
either by breaks in the roof lines or by wall extensions or
parapets; smaller buildings should be treated like pavilions,
with continuous parapet ornamentation or sloped roofs on all
side. In all cases, buildings should blend with the landscape
and the surrounding homes and businesses. Colors should be
soft and muted rather than bright and contrasting.
An emphasis on high quality design, materials and architecture
is recommended, with additional guidance available through
use of the City of Santa Ana’s Design Guidelines and
Development Standards. However, in as much as the Specific
Plan dictates a specific approach to the corridor’s architecture,
it must not preclude variety and/or refinements to the design
intent. In this vein, the design guidelines are purposefully
wide in scope, focusing not on the detail of the buildings but
rather on the broad issues of scale, massing and façade
articulation. They thus guard against possible gross
misinterpretation of the stated aesthetic objectives while
leaving ample room for creative and ingenious solutions.

5.3 Circulation and Parking
As part of the original Specific Plan and related environmental
documentation, a Traffic Study was prepared for the Corridor
detailing the existing conditions, comparisons with the
General Plan in terms of traffic generation, potential impacts
to the surrounding street network and standards for property
access.
As previously identified, this amendment provides changes in
land use designations to allow for additional residential
development as well as opportunities for commercial uses on
selected parcels. An updated Traffic Study was prepared to
analyze impacts associated with the changes and identified
that the total number of trips would be a relatively small
percentage of the overall original project, and no significant
traffic impacts would be experienced as a result of the land
use changes. The original analysis and proposed mitigation
measures still apply.
Daily Trip Generation
Following a calculation of the proposed land uses and
development intensity, the Specific Plan area will generate
7,000 daily trips. This volume represents 42 percent of the
1990 General Plan trip generation estimates.
Impact to Surround Areas
The construction of a median on Bristol Street plus the closing
of several side streets and their reconfiguration into cul-de-
sacs is likely to divert and increase traffic along some adjacent
neighborhood streets. This impact is mitigated by two factors:
The maximum distance increase resulting from a street closure
is 1,850 feet, which is considered modest; and the overall
reduction in volume as stated above plus the proposed traffic
control measures will ease current circulation conflicts
affecting the adjacent streets.
Intersection Enhancement
Based on the projected traffic generations and movement
patterns, no new improvements at any of the corridor’s
intersections are required beyond those prescribed by the
General Plan.
Public Transit
Bristol Street is identified as a public transit corridor.
Following consultations with the Orange County
Transportation Authority (OCTA), the following bus turnouts
have been incorporated in the Specific Plan.
The plan proposes that expanded plaza areas be developed at
each turnout to enhance the space for gathering and waiting.

Chapter 6 Design Guidelines
This section of the Specific Plan outlines specific design
controls governing the implementation of the private
improvements in the Bristol Street Corridor. The controls
represent minimum design criteria designed to guide
development towards the goals and objectives of the Specific
Plan. Guidelines or standards not specifically addressed in this
section indicate concurrence with the city of Santa Ana Zoning
Code and Design Development Standards, to which all
development in the Corridor should adhere.
6.1 Site Development
Objective:
The sitting of new buildings and parking as shown on the
Development Plan (Chapter 5) should provide optimum
continuity of the parkway landscape through private
development parcels. Table 6-1 in conjunction with the
attached parcel standards summarizes the site development
guidelines applicable to each commercial parcel.
6.1.1 Parking Frontages
The site layout and design of new developments shall
emphasize placement of parking towards the rear of the site
behind the building and siting the building closer to Bristol
Street. Where parking is provided along the Bristol Street
frontage, a continuous strip of parking stalls shall be provided
abutting the public sidewalk and perpendicular to it (Figure
6-1). The public sidewalk shall be continuous at driveway
ramp locations and shall have special paving at parking
entrances along Bristol Street (Figure 6-2). When the building
is situated closer to Bristol Street the commercial landscape
standards shall apply.
A 5-foot (for Bristol Street from Saint Andrew Place to Civic
Center Drive) or 15-foot (for Bristol Street from Warner
Avenue to Saint Andrew Place and Civic Center Drive to
Santiago Creek) continuous and curbed planting strip shall
separate the parking from the sidewalk. The planter curb may
be used as a wheel stop, with two-feet of the planter area
counted as part of the parking stall dimension. The planting
strip shall be planted with shrub material suitable to provide a
30-inch high continuous hedge.
A planting island shall be provided after every three stalls
along the strip. The dimension of the planting islands shall be
equal to the minimum dimension of a parking stall as dictated
by the City’s Parking Ordinance. Each planting island shall
receive a street tree of the specie recommended in the plant
list. Trees shall be planted to form a line along the parking
frontage.

6.1.2 Building Siting
Buildings shall be sited as close to Bristol Street as possible.
Buildings shall be placed not farther than 5-feet from the
rear property line where buildings do not exceed one story.
Two or more story structures shall be set back additionally at
the rate of 1-foot of height for each foot of additional
distance from side or rear property lines.
The space between rear building walls and the property line or
sound-abating wall shall be paved and the access to this space
secured by means of a lockable, solid fence not less than 6-
feet high.
A 5-foot minimum distance shall be maintained between
building lines, driveway curbs and parking areas.
6.1.3 Building Form
Side street elevations shall be as narrow as possible given
reasonable footprint configurations. Conversely, buildings
shall present maximum frontage towards Bristol Street.
Building corners facing an intersection shall be chamfered; the
chamfered face shall not be less than 15 feet (Figure 6-3).
Raised architectural elements, e.g. roof and parapet
extensions, are encouraged at street corners. The height of
such extensions shall follow the building height guidelines per
the following subsection.
6.1.4 Building Height
Adjacent to residential areas buildings shall not exceed 22.5
feet in height from grade to the top of the roof or parapet wall
(Figure 6-5). Building heights may be increased one-foot for
each additional foot of rear and side setback provided. Roof
or parapet wall extensions at the intersection-facing corner of
a building are permitted to a height of 35-feet provided such
extensions do not exceed 500 square feet in project floor area
or 25-feet along a side.
6.1.5 Screens
Architectural screens shall be constructed to obscure trash
enclosures, mechanical, electrical equipment or other
utilitarian equipment as required by the Municipal Code.
6.1.6 Signage
Signage shall be subject to Municipal Code standards. Signage
shall not be constructed in the landscaping between curb and
sidewalk. Signs should be compatible to the architectural
character of the proposed development.
The location of the sign shall not hinder street or driveway
visibility.
6.1.7 Lighting
Pedestrian scale, pole-mounted fixtures shall be provided as
necessary to achieve a 2-footcandle minimum level of
illumination in all commercial site areas (Figure 5-12).
All lighting shall be high-pressure-sodium.
The fixture type shall match the pedestrian type fixtures
proposed for the public space.
Placement of the fixtures shall be consistent with and
responsive to the spacing and location of street trees and
other landscape elements.
Building-mounted lights shall be compatible with the
proposed exterior fixtures.

6.2 Architecture
Objective:
Develop a unified architectural character that enhances the
identity of the surrounding communities while not detracting
from the street’s park-like setting.
6.2.1 Façades
Long, uninterrupted façades shall be avoided: building façades
should be “broken”, or segmented in 20 to 30 feet sections. A
“section” is defined as a plane separated horizontally not less
than 3 feet from an adjacent parallel plane, and/or vertically
not less than five feet from an adjacent parallel plane (Figure
6-4).
Per subsection 6.1.5, terminating a façade with a special
architecture feature is required.
6.2.2 Storefront Signage
Each Commercial store or business may have one sign placed
on the building’s Bristol Street or side street façade (where a
single store faces both streets, two signs shall be permitted).
The sign shall be restricted to the name and/or logo of the
store of business and shall consist solely of the type-face
necessary to spell said name and/or logo. The type-face shall
not exceed 24 inches in height nor project more than 8 inches
from the building face. Product representative graphics are
encouraged (Figure 6-5).
The sign or collection of signs shall not visually dominate nor
overwhelm the building’s façade. A 1.5-foot minimum
distance shall be maintained from the edge of the type-face to
any wall edge or corner.
Issues not addressed in this section shall refer to the municipal
code.
6.2.3 Rooflines
Sloping roofs shall be pitched upwards from exterior walls at
not less than a 2:1 ratio and not more than a 1:5:1 ratio (Figure
6-6).
6.2.4 Projections
Roof projections are encouraged as long as they do not have
cantilevered appearance: they must terminate in a colonnade,
open wall or other similar architectural device. The use of
colonnades is highly encouraged.
6.2.5 Awnings
The use of canvas or metal awnings is encouraged. Awnings
shall not extend more than 6 feet from the face of buildings
(Figure 6-6).
6.2.6 Materials
Exterior wall materials shall be predominantly concrete,
concrete block, or painted stucco. Wood, metal, brick or
synthetic veneers may be used as secondary materials.
The use of decorative finishes, like ceramic tile or glass block
is encouraged provided they do not dominate the
architecture.
Sloped roofs shall be clad in ceramic, terracotta, or cement
tiles. Asphalt tiles shall be avoided.
Glass shall be tinted or clear. Reflective or “mirror” glass is not
permitted.
6.2.7 Colors
Color shall be used as an integral part of the architecture, not
as ornament or decoration, except as part of decorative or
ornamental features like awnings, metal trim, doorframes,
etc. Hues shall be in the pastel range, muted in tone rather
than bright. Variations in color within a building are
encouraged, provided the transitions in color occur at breaks
in building surfaces.

loitering.
Five bicycle parking posts shall be provided for each 50 feet of
commercial frontage. Posts may be combined in racks or be
single standing. Racks or posts shall be galvanized steel.
6.3.8 Irrigation
Spray irrigation shall be restricted to turf and ground cover
areas. Sprinklers shall be vandal-resistant, pop-up in type.
Trees and vines shall be drip or flood irrigated.
6.4 Circulation
Objective:
Provide adequate areas for safe, efficient movement of all
modes.
6.4.1 Service Access
The site design for commercial areas shall permit adequate
access and movement of service vehicles, including waste,
service and fire-emergency vehicles. When parked, these
vehicles shall not hinder the operation of parking areas
(except during off-hours) nor shall encroach upon public or
other private property.

Chapter 7 IMPLEMENTATION
ELEMENT
The Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan sets forth a variety of
land use controls in the form of policies, objectives,
development standards and regulations, and design guidelines
whose function is to ensure the orderly development of the
planning area. This section of the Plan describes anticipated
administrative, development review, and regulatory
approaches that would be followed to effectively implement
this Specific Plan and identifies project capital improvements
and implementation responsibilities.
In addition to the Specific Plan, the planning area is also
subject to regulation under the Bristol Street Corridor
Redevelopment Plan (). The two plans have distinct and
complementary roles in the implementation process. While
the Specific Plan sets forth guidelines which regulate land use,
development, and design in the planning area, the
Redevelopment Plan authorizes the City to acquire right-of-
way necessary to make improvements to Bristol Street,
acquire and assemble land parcels for development of open
space, and provide development funding to finance capital
improvements. The objectives of the two plans are highly
integrated. Successful implementation of the Specific Plan is
therefore dependent upon close coordination with
implementation of the Redevelopment Plan.
7.1 Development Review and Regulation
Specific Plan Adoption
Following public review and certification by the City of a
Negative Declaration on the Specific Plan, and adoption of the
Plan by the Planning Commission and City Council, the Bristol
Street Corridor Specific Plan shall be incorporated as part of
the City of Santa Ana’s General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
Policies and standards presented in the Specific Plan will take
precedence over more general policies and standards applied
throughout the rest of the city. In situations where policies or
standards relating to a particular subject have not been
provided in the Specific Plan, the existing policies and
standards of the City’s General Plan and Zoning Ordinance will
continue to apply.
A. Revisions to the Santa Ana General Plan
The Santa Ana General Plan currently designates the planning
area for a combination of Low Density Residential, General
Business District, Mixed Use District, and Open Space. With
approval of the Plan, the City would also adopt the Bristol
Street Specific Plan as an amendment to the City of Santa Ana
General Plan. The City will then revise its General Plan Land
Use Map to be consistent with the distribution of land use
categories presented in the Specific Plan Land Use Map (See
Figure 5-1). For the most part, the same land use designations
currently found in the planning area will continue to be used,
although there will be a significant shift in the allocation of
land area away from General Business District and Low Density
Residential designations to Open Space.
City Council 17 – 96 3/4/2025
Bristol Street Corridor Specific Plan
March 2018
Page | 83
B. Revisions to Existing Zoning
The zoning provisions in the Specific Plan add to or
supplement those that already exist in the City’s Zoning
Ordinance. Existing zoning categories will continue to be used
in the planning area (i.e., no new zoning categories will need
to be created), however, the redistribution of land uses will
require that the majority of the existing parcels be rezoned in
order to initiate implementation of the plan and bring the
properties into compliance with the General Plan land use
designations. Ninety percent of 374 parcels in the planning
area will need to be rezoned. In order to facilitate
implementation of the plan and avoid confusion to area
landowners, it is recommended that all, or at least major
portions, of the planning area be rezoned at the time of the
Specific Plan’s adoption. Existing uses which are made
nonconforming by this action could continue until proposed
capital improvements actually begin, but the zone change
would provide clear direction for landowners and the City
regarding the ultimate land use direction for the area. The
procedure followed by the City to rezone the planning area will
be to create and adopt a single Specific Plan District (SP)
designation for the area (except for isolated single family
residential lots not fronting on Bristol Street). The City Zoning
maps would then be revised to show the area with an SP
designation and refer interested parties to the Specific Plan
itself for the underlying zoning on any one parcel.
C. Assemblage of Parcels
A primary factor affecting the implementation of the Specific
Plan will be the City’s acquisition of the properties necessary
to implement the Bristol Street Widening project. The City will
be acquiring parcels incrementally as funds become available.
Acquisition will be phased to be consistent with the phasing of
proposed capital improvements. Ninety percent of the 374
parcels in the planning area will need to be rezoned. In order
to facilitate implementation of the plan and avoid confusion
to area landowners, it is recommended that all, or at least
major portions, of the planning area be rezoned at the time of
the Specific Plan’s adoption. Existing uses which are made
nonconforming by this action could continue until proposed
capital improvements actually begin or until property owners
elect to redevelop those properties where commercial uses
are planned to continue. In either case, the zone change
would provide clear direction for landowners and the City
regarding the ultimate land use direction for the area. The
procedure followed by the City to rezone the planning area will
be to create and adopt a single Specific Plan District (SP)
designation for the area (except for isolated single family
residential lots not fronting on Bristol Street). The City Zoning
maps would then be revised to show the area with an SP
designation and refer interested parties to the Specific Plan
itself for the underlying zoning on any one parcel.

Adopt a resolution approving an Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Statement/
Environmental Impact Report pertaining to the Bristol Street Improvement Project between
Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place.
Bristol Street is a major north -south transportation facility which is designated as a major arterial
highway in the City's Circulation Element of the General Plan. Improvement of the 3. 9 -mile
Bristol Street segment from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane has been a long -term priority
project that is being constructed in several phases. Improvements include widening the street
from two to three lanes in each direction, raised landscape medians, bike lanes, and sidewalks.
In 1990, the City Council authorized embarking on these proposed improvements with the
approval of the Bristol Street Final Environmental Impact Statement /Environmental Impact
Report (FEIS /EIR) (EIS No. 89 -01). A copy of the FEIS /EIR is attached ( Exhibit 1) and is also
available for review in the Clerk of the Council office.
Since the adoption of the 1990 FEIS /EIR, there have been no substantial changes in the project
scope. Minor design modifications for improvements between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew
Place (Exhibit 2) were considered, including addressing climate change issues. These
modifications are identified in the Addendum to the FEIS /EIR (Exhibit 3) in accordance with the
California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA).
The design modifications to the project segment
include the following:

The right -of -way (ROW) width would be increased from 120 feet to 128 feet.
The 15- foot -wide parkway would be reduced to 6 feet in width.
The 10- foot -wide sidewalk would be reduced to 8 feet in width.
The Bristol Street centerline between Saint Anne Place and Saint Andrew Place would be
shifted an additional four feet to the west. The Bristol Street centerline would remain
unmodified north of Saint Andrew Place.
The resolution approving the Addendum to the FEIS /EIR (Exhibit 4) is needed to allow
expenditure of federal grant funding for right -of -way acquisition and construction of the project.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution in accordance with the CEQA
requirements.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 Community Facilities &
Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City
assets), Strategy G (develop and implement the City's Capital Improvement Program in
coordination with the Community Investment and Deferred Maintenance Plans for Bristol Street
widening).

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM
Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This Addendum has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), as
amended, to evaluate the potential environmental impacts of the proposed changes to the widening of Bristol
Street, from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane as proposed in the Project Final Environmental hnpact
Statement / Environmental Impact Report (FEIS /EIR) approved in 1990 (FHWA -CA- EIS- 89 -01- F; SCH
No. 87071509).
This Addendum focuses on the segment of Bristol Street between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place
Phase IV, or Project) and is limited to the proposed improvements to this segment. This Addendum
provides an assessment of potential environmental impacts associated with minor design modifications and
the issue of climate change which was not addressed in the previously prepared and certified FEIS /EIR.
Design modifications to the Project, since approval of the 1990 FEIS /EIR, that are addressed in this
Addendum include the following:
The proposed Project increases the total right -of -way width from 120 feet to 128 feet. The proposed
Project right- of-way cross- section would maintain a curb -to -curb width of 100 feet, would
accommodate a 7 -foot wide bike lane on each side of the roadway, and would not affect the number
or width of vehicular travel lanes as compared to the right -of -way cross - section addressed in the
1990 FEIS/EIR. However, the proposed Project right -of -way cross section, as compared to the right-
of-way cross section addressed in the 1990 FEIS /EIR, would reduce the width of the sidewalks from
10 to 8 feet and also accommodate a 6 -foot wide parkway on each side of Bristol Street to separate
pedestrian and vehicular travel; a parkway was not included as part of the roadway cross section
addressed in the 1990 FEIS /EIR. Acquisition of property resulting from the proposed Project right -
of -way is accounted for in this analysis.
The centerline alignment has been shifted to the west starting at St. Gertrude instead of starting at
Glenwood Place with the addition of 4 -feat to the original 20 -foot shift. The street centerline then
shifted back 4 -feet to the east at St. Andrew in order to match the existing centerline north of St.
Andrew. By shifting the centerline at St. Gertrude, the Phase IV Project saved eight parcels from full
take by reducing these parcels to partial acquisitions.
A bus turnout would be located at the Warner Avenue.
Change right -of -way requirement from full take to partial take of the following single - family
residential parcels: 015- 215 -10 (150 square feet), 015- 215 -11 (50 square feet), 015- 214 -10 (50
square feet), 015- 234 -10 (50 square feet), 015- 233 -11 (50 square feet), 015- 233 -10 (50 square Feet),
015- 232 -11 (50 square feet), and (015- 232 -10 (50 square feet).
Change right -of -way requirement from full take to partial take of Parcel 408- 336 -17 (3,466 square
feet).
Land use for the current Project has been changed compared to the 1990 FEIS. The following
parcels have been changed from Park to Park with Commercial Option: 015- 194 -38 and 015 -194-
39.
Preceding project phase inclusive of the following parcel which is no longer included in the Phase
IV Project right -of -way requirements: 015- 194 -40.
It should be noted that the 1990 FEIS and 2013 National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Reevaluation
URS Corporation) provided comprehensive noise barriers at all easterly parcel boundaries currently
fronting the east side of Bristol Street between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place and comprehensive
noise barriers at all westerly parcel boundaries currently fronting the west side of Bristol Street between

City Council 17 – 150 3/4/2025
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM
Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
West Saint Gertrude Place and Saint Andrew Place. Using the California Department of Transportation's
Caltrans) May 2011 Traffic Noise Analysis Protocol, the following noise barriers (NB) were determined to
be reasonable: NB -4, NB -5, NB -6, NB -7, NB -8, NB -9, NB -10, and NB -11. These noise barriers are
generally equivalent to the recommended noise barriers shown in the 1990 FEIS and 2013 Reevaluation.
However, barriers NB -6, NB -7, NB -8, and NB -9 would need to be shifted to the west of the receivers
parcels) that are no longer being acquired. The modifications and other refinements to the project would not
create any additional impacts than what was identified in the 2013 NEPA Reevaluation; thus, there would be
no changes or additions to the avoidance, minimization, and/or mitigation measures.
Furthermore, as climate change is a relatively new area of discussion, the topic was not discussed in the Air
Quality section of the previously approved FEIS /EIR. As such, this Addendum analyzes the effects of
climate change associated with the construction and operation of the Project.
This Addendum to the previously certified 1990 Final EIS /EIR has been prepared because project - related
modifications to the Bristol Street alignment do not trigger the need for further environmental analysis in a
Subsequent or Supplemental EIR under the requirements of CEQA or CEQA Guidelines (refer to CEQA
Guidelines Sections 15164 and 15167).
1.1 Purpose of an Addendum
Under CEQA, when an EIR has been certified for a project, no Subsequent FIR may be required for that
project unless the lead agency determines, based upon substantial evidence, that one or more specified
circumstances has occurred. Only if one or more of the following circumstances arises is a Subsequent FIR
required:
1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revision of the
previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is
undertaken which will require major revision of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new
significant environmental increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been
known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as
complete, shows any of the following:
A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR;
B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the
previous EIR;
C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be
feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but
the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed
in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the
environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or
alternative. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15162[a])
A Supplement to an FIR (or Supplemental EIR), which is narrower in scope than a Subsequent EIR, may be
prepared if any of the above criteria apply, but "[o]nly minor changes or additions would be necessary to
make the previous EIR adequately apply to the project in the changed situation" (CEQA Guidelines Section
15163[a]). In the absence of the need to prepare either a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR, an Addendum
may be prepared. Section 15164 states:

City Council 17 – 151 3/4/2025
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM
Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
a) The lead agency or a responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if
some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162
calling for preparation of a subsequent FIR have occurred.
b) An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only minor technical changes
or additions are necessary or none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for the
preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative declaration have occurred.
c) An addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the
final EIR or adopted negative declaration.
d) The decision making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR or adopted negative
declaration prior to making a decision on the project.
e) A brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15162
should be included in an addendum to an EIR, the lead agency's findings on the project, or
elsewhere in the record. The explanation must be supported by substantial evidence. (CEQA
Guidelines Section 15164)
This Addendum to the previously certified Final EIS/EIR for the Approved Project has been prepared
because the evaluation of the proposed modifications does not result in any of the circumstances requiring a
Subsequent or Supplemental EIS/EIR. As shown in this Addendum, although the proposed modifications
would result in development that differs from that in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR, they do not trigger the need for
preparation of a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR under the criteria listed in Sections 15162(a) and
15163(a). Sections 2 and 3 of this Addendum demonstrate that no substantial changes are proposed in the
approved project or have occurred in the area of the Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project located
between Warner Avenue and St. Andrew Place that will require major revisions to the previously certified
1990 Final EIS /EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase
in the severity of previously identified significant effects. Specifically, the proposed modifications do not
result in new or substantially greater significant impacts because the scale and nature of the development
proposed are sufficiently similar to that analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR that the impacts of the proposed
modifications are within the levels and types of environmental impacts disclosed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Additionally, no substantial changes in circumstances under Section 15162(a)(2) have occurred since the
certification of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR for the approved project that would implicate new significant
impacts or substantially increase the severity of significant impacts previously identified, since the
background environmental conditions have not significantly changed since that time. The City of Santa Ana
has received no information indicating there has been a substantial change in any circumstances that would
result in a new or substantially greater significant impact.
Furthermore, no new information, which was not known and could not have been known at the time of the
1990 Final EIS /EIR preparation, has been revealed that shows new or substantially greater significant
impacts will result (see CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3)). In addition, there are no new or different
Mitigation Measures or Alternatives that would substantially reduce one or more significant impacts of the
approved project but that are not adopted. The proposed modifications do not identify or require adoption of
any further Mitigation Measures or Alternatives beyond those provided in the certified 1990 Final EIS/EIR
for the approved project, since additional Mitigation Measures are either not necessary or not feasible, and
the Alternatives analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR represent a reasonable range as requested by CEQA
see CEQA Guidelines Section 15162(a)(3)).
The Addendum relies on the certified 1990 Final EIS/EIR and the related administrative record, in addition
to the additional documentation included to support the Addendum, including the appendices. The
Addendum is to be included or attached to the 1990 Final EIS/EIR and is not to be considered as an
independent or separate document.
As this Addendum does not identify new or substantially greater significant impacts, circulation for public
review and comment is not necessary pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(c). However, the City

Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
Council will consider and adopt or reject this Addendum at a public meeting prior to the approval of the
proposed Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project (refer to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(4)). The
findings of the City Council in its resolution of adoption of this Addendum, if adopted, will reflect this
Addendum which provides the basis and substantial evidence for the decision not to prepare a Subsequent or
Supplemental EIR (refer to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164(e)).
1.2 Project Location
The project site is located on a segment of Bristol Street between Warner Avenue to Saint Andrew Place in
the City of Santa Ana. The City of Santa Ana, located within the County of Orange, is surrounded by the
Cities of Tustin, Orange, Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley, and Garden Grove. The proposed project site is
located approximately 1.5 miles north of the San Diego Freeway (I -405) and approximately three miles
south of State Route 22 (SR -22). Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 for the regional map and project location
map with proposed roadway alignment and widening.
1.1.1 Existing Land Uses
The project area and surrounding vicinity is located within a fully urbanized area of the City. The existing
land uses along the project corridor consist of commercial and single - family residential developments. There
are no outdoor activities associated with the commercial developments in the project area. The existing
single - family residences consist of single -story homes of varying sizes, and include outdoor areas of
frequent human use (i.e., rear and side yards).
According to the current City of Santa Ana General Plan, land use designation for the affected parcels
fronting Bristol Street within the vicinity of the Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project area and existing
land uses are summarized in the Table 1 Existing Land Uses.
The majority of surrounding areas beyond the project site are similar to the development typology along
Bristol Street Widening Phase IV which includes single family residences, multi - family residences and
various commercial and retail facilities. Figure 3 (Existing Land Uses from the 1990 Final EIS/EIR]),
illustrates the existing land uses identified for Bristol Street Widening Phase IV as part of the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR. It should be noted that while the Phase IV project area stretches along Bristol Street from Warner
Avenue to Saint Andrew Place, Bristol Street at Edinger Avenue is also included as part of the project study
area however, Bristol Street from Saint Andrew to Edinger has already been widened and is not a part of
Phase IV. The locations of the full or partial acquisitions are shown on Figure 4.

Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
1.3 Project Background
1.3.1 Approved 1990 Final EIRIEIS
The City of Santa Ana General Plan has designated Bristol Street as a Major Arterial Highway traveling in a
north -south direction. As a result of significant growth and traffic congestion on Bristol Avenue, the City, in
the late 1980s, proposed to widen Bristol Street from a four -lane roadway to a six -lane arterial in accordance
with adopted County of Orange and City of Santa Ana standards for a Major Arterial Highway. A joint
EIS /EIR was prepared and approved by the City of Santa Ana and Caltrans for the widening of Bristol Street
in 1990. The 1990 project entailed a 3.9 -mile segment of Bristol Street from Warner Avenue on the south to
Memory Lane on the north. Due to significant costs associated with construction and availability of funding,
the project was divided into several construction phases; Phase 1 from Warner Avenue north to First Street,
Phase 2 consisting of the widening and reconstruction of the bridge which crosses Santiago Creels (northerly
limits of the street widening project), and Phase 3 between First Street and Memory Lane.
The 1990 Final EIS /EIR document (SCH No. 87071509) was approved on November 19, 1990. The
1990 Final EIS /EIR and associated technical studies, incorporated herein by reference, documented the
environmental impacts of widening Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane in the City of Santa
Ana. As stated in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR, the purpose and goals of the Bristol Street Widening project were
to:
1) Provide sufficient roadway capacity to accommodate current and future traffic demand.
2) Improve the performance and safety of the roadway for the benefit of the motoring public.
3) To reduce current and projected future delays experienced at major intersections and to design
intersections to function at acceptable Levels of Service (LOS).
4) To design the roadway in manner conducive to the provision of public transportation, namely
bus service provided by the Orange County Transit District (OCTD).
1.3.2 Adopted Transportation Improvement Program
The Approved Project is included as project number ORA125 in the regional emissions analysis conducted
by Southern California Association of Governments (SLAG) for the conforming 2013 Federal
Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) adopted by SCAG on September 19, 2012 and approved by
FHWA on December 14, 2012. As provided in the FTIP, the Approved Project description reads as follows:
BRISTOL ST (WARNER TO MEMORY LANE) WIDEN FROM 4 TO 6 LANES (IMPV AT
BRISTOL /WARNER (ADD ATIEBISB THRULNS; WB RT TRNLN) AND BRISTOL /FIRST (ADD
NBISB THR U INS, SBLFTIRTITRNINS
The Phase IV project is a component of the Approved Project. The Phase IV Project's design concept and
scope have not changed significantly from what was analyzed in the RTIP and FTIP. This analysis found
that the plan and, therefore, the individual projects contained in the plan, are conforming projects, and would
have air quality impacts consistent with those identified in the state implementation plans (SIPS) for
achieving the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). FHWA determined the RTIP to conform
to the SIP.
The Phase IV Project's open to the public year is consistent with (within the same regional emission analysis
period as) the construction completion date identified in the FTIP and /or RTP. The FTIP gives priority to
eligible Transportation Control Measures (TCMs) identified in the SIP and provides sufficient funds to
provide for their implementation. FHWA determined the TIP to conform to the SIP on December 2010.

The Phase IV Project is also included in the 2013 TIP adopted by SCAG on September 6, 2012 and
approved by FHWA on December 14, 2012.
1.4 Project Description
1.4.1 Bristol Street Widening Phase IV Project Area
Phase IV of the Bristol Street Widening Project involves the widening of Bristol Street (between Warner
Avenue to Saint Andrew Place) from 4 lanes to 6 lanes with a 150- foot -wide right -of -way cross section
including a 14 -foot wide raised landscaped median; three 12- foot -wide through travel lanes in each
direction; a 7 -foot wide Class 1I bike lane on each side of the roadway; a 15 -foot wide parkway, and 10 -foot
sidewalk with curb ramps for wheelchair access pursuant to American with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA)
requirements on both sides of the roadway.
As Bristol Street approaches the intersections between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place, and
between Warner Avenue and Glenwood Place, the landscaped center median would taper to accommodate
right -tarn pockets and left -turn lanes in each direction. The landscaped center median would then continue
north of the Glenwood Place intersection to match the existing raised center median approximately 380 feet
south of Edinger Avenue. The addition of the landscaped center median would improve safety by preventing
left -tum access to /from Saint Gertrude Place, Saint Anne Place, Camden Place, and Carlton Place to the
newly widened Bristol Street. (Note: the intersection of Bristol Street and Saint Andrew Place would be
converted to a right -turn only intersection in both directions.) Additionally, cul -de -sacs would be included
on the west side of Bristol Street at Saint Anne Place, Camden Place, and Carlton Place to improve safety by
preventing access to /from these streets to the newly widened Bristol Street. The location of the Phase IV
Project is shown in Figure 1 and in Figure 2.
Street signs and utilities including electric power lines, telephone poles, and street lighting would be
relocated to new locations within the project area along Bristol Street. Street furniture, including the benches
and bus shelters, will be provided at bus stop locations.
During the one -year construction (approximately mid -2016 to mid- 2017), one lane in each direction would
remain open and existing driveway accesses along Bristol Street would be retained at all rimes. Maximum
excavation depth would be three feet for roadway excavation and 10 feet for utility /drainage excavation.
Construction equipment would be those consistent with other similar roadway widening projects and likely
would include excavators, loaders, backhoes, dump trucks, graders, pavers and rollers, and other
construction trucks.
1.4.2 Property Acquisition
To accommodate the street widening proposed by the Bristol Street Widening project, a combination of full
and partial acquisition of right of way is required from a total of 43 residential and commercial parcels
fronting Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Saint Andrew Place (refer to Figure 4 [Property Acquisitions]
for the locations of affected properties). Table 2 includes a listing of properties affected and the disposition
of acquisition requirements.

The proposed street widening design configuration for the current Phase IV segment differs from the
original configuration of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR, as follows:
The proposed Project increases the total right -of -way width from 120 feet to 128 feet. The proposed
Project right -of -way cross - section would maintain a curb -to -curb width of 100 feet, would
accommodate a 7 -foot wide bike lane on each side of the roadway, and would not affect the number
or width of vehicular travel lanes as compared to the right -of -way cross - section addressed in the
1990 FEIS /EIR. However, the proposed Project right -of -way cross section, as compared to the right -
of -way cross section addressed in the 1990 FEIS /EIR, would reduce the width of the sidewalks from
10 to 8 feet and also accommodate a 6 -foot wide parkway on each side of Bristol Street to separate
pedestrian and vehicular travel; a parkway was not included as part of the roadway cross section
addressed in the 1990 FEIS /EIR. Acquisition of property resulting from the proposed Project right -
of -way is accounted for in this analysis.
The centerline alignment has been shifted to the west starting at St. Gertrude instead of starting at
Glenwood Place with the addition of 4 -feet to the original 20 -foot shift. The street centerline then
shifted back 4 -feet to the east at St. Andrew in order to match the existing centerline north of St.
Andrew. By shifting the centerline at St. Gertrude, the Phase IV Project saved eight parcels from full
take by reducing these parcels to partial acquisitions.
A bus turnout would be located at the Warner Avenue.
Change right -of -way requirement from full take to partial take of the following single - family
residential parcels: 015 - 215 -10 (150 square feet), 015- 215 -11 (50 square feet), 015- 214 -10 (50
square feet), 015- 234 -10 (50 square feet), 015- 233 -11 (50 square feet), 015- 233 -10 (50 square feet),

Project right -of -way requirements: 015- 194 -40.
It should be noted that the 1990 FEIS and 2013 NEPA Reevaluation (URS Corporation) provided
comprehensive noise barriers at all easterly parcel boundaries currently fronting the east side of Bristol
Street between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place and comprehensive noise barriers at all westerly
parcel boundaries currently fronting the west side of Bristol Street between West Saint Gertrude Place and
Saint Andrew Place. Using the California Department of Transportation's (Caltrans) May 2011 Traffic
Noise Analysis Protocol, the following noise barriers were determined to be reasonable: NB -4, NB -5, NB -6,
NB -7, NB -8, NB -9, NB -10, and NB -11. These noise barriers are generally equivalent to the recommended
noise barriers shown in the 1990 FEIS and 2013 NEPA Reevaluation. However, barriers NB -6, NB -7, NB -8,
and NB -9 would need to be shifted to the west of the receivers (parcels) that are no longer being acquired.
The modifications and other refinements to the project would not create any additional impacts than what
was identified in the 2013 NEPA Reevaluation; thus, there would be no changes or additions to the
avoidance, minimization, and/or mitigation measures.
The proposed Phase IV Project lane configurations are shown in Figure 5, whereas the lane configurations
from the original approved 1990 Final EIS/EIR are shown in Figure 6.
An assessment of construction and Project related GHG emissions was also not addressed in the 1990
FEIS /EIR, and as a result is addressed in this Addendum.
1.4.4 Construction Timeframe
Construction activities associated with the proposed Project would occur following acquisition of the
required parcels. Construction of the Project is anticipated to begin in mid -2016 and be completed within
approximately one year (mid- 2017).
1.5 Discretionary Actions
The Addendum document must be adopted by the City of Santa Ana City Council as to its adequacy in
complying with the requirements of CEQA and the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR. The City
Council will consider the information contained in the Addendum and the 1990 Final EIS/EIR in making a
decision to approve or deny the proposed project. No discretionary actions with regards to National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), or changes are proposed pursuant to NEPA.

Description of Project:
The City of Santa Ana is proposing to widen the Bristol Street between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew
Place as part of the previously approved Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane Project, for
which an EIS/EIR was certified in 1990.
The Build Alternative involves the widening of Bristol Street (between Warner Avenue to Saint Andrew
Place) from 4 lanes to 6 lanes with a 150 -foot wide right -of -way cross section including a 14 -foot wide
raised landscaped median; 3 12 -foot wide through travel lanes in each direction; a 7 -foot wide Class II bike
lane on each side of the roadway; a 15 -foot wide parkway, and 10 -foot sidewalk with curb ramps for
wheelchair access pursuant to ADA requirements on both sides of the roadway.
As Bristol Street approaches the intersections between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place, and
between Warner Avenue and Glenwood Place, the landscaped center median would taper to accommodate
right -turn pockets and left -turn lanes in each direction. The landscaped center median would then continue
north of the Glenwood Place intersection to match the existing raised center median approximately 380 feet
south of Edinger Avenue. The addition of the landscaped center median would improve safety by preventing
left -turn access to /from Saint Gertrude Place, Saint Anne Place, Camden Place, and Carlton Place to the
newly widened Bristol Street. (Note: the intersection of Bristol Street and Saint Andrew Place would be
converted to a right -turn only intersection in both directions.) Additionally, cul-de-sacs would be included
on the west side of Bristol Street at Saint Anne Place, Camden Place, and Carlton Place to improve safety by
preventing access to /from these streets to the newly widened Bristol Street.

3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES
This section describes the effects of the proposed modifications to the Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project
compared to those identified in the previously approved 1990 Final EIS/EIR document, and to existing
conditions and any changes in regulatory setting since the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Furthermore, this section analyzes the potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed project. The
issue areas evaluated in this document include the following, pursuant to Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines,
and have been modified to evaluate the proposed project changes for which a Final EIS/EIR has been previously
approved (in 1990) to assist in the determination of the need for a supplemental EIS /EIR or an Addendum. The
modified Initial Study checklist is found in Appendix A.

Mandatory Findings of Significance
A summary of impacts of the previously approved project and the mitigation measures imposed is provided
along an analysis of the potential impacts resulting from the proposed project and whether those impacts
substantially exceeds those discussed in the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
3.1 Aesthetics
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures, subsections
A, Landform Modification, G, Urban Landscaping, J, Light and Glare, and K, Aesthetic Considerations of the
previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista?
The proposed project would not result in any significant modifications or changes from the previously approved
1990 Final EIS /EIR. The Bristol Street Widening Phase IV intersections are located within a highly developed
urban area of the City. No scenic vistas are located within the project area. No impact to scenic vistas would
result from the proposed project.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings,
and historic buildings within a state scenic highway?
There are no state designated scenic highways within the project area. The project is located within a highly
developed and urbanized area of the City. No scenic highways are located within close proximity, nor is the
project area visible from any scenic highways. No impacts are anticipated in this regard.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM
Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of the site and its surroundings?
The proposed project involves a total of 43 parcels of which 35 would result in the full take and eight would
result in partial take. Field observations indicated that the potentially affected properties (residential and non-
residential) do not have unique characteristics related to their age or condition that would be difficult to replace,
or possess attributes that are unique. The proposed project would result in a reduced number of acquired units in
comparison to the 1990 Final EIS/EIR and would not result in substantial changes in visual character as
analyzed in the previously approved 1990 Final EIS/EIR. Implementation of mitigation measures as included in
the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR would ensure that impacts are reduced to a less than significant
level.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare that would adversely affect day or nighttime
views in the area?
Light and glare are currently generated from existing vehicular uses within the Phase IV project area,
commercial and retail businesses, signage, street lighting, and parking lot lighting. The proposed project does
not involve the construction of any structures other than relocation of street lighting fixtures. Therefore, no new
sources of light or glare are anticipated with implementation of the proposed project. The proposed project
would not generate additional daytime or nighttime illumination beyond that currently experienced within the
area. Implementation of the proposed project would not create more significant light and glare impacts than
previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
3.2 Agricultural Resources
The previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR did not include evaluation for agricultural resources, as no
agricultural resources are located within the area of analysis.
a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland),
as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of
the California Resources Agency, to non - agricultural use?
The project site is located within a fully developed, urban area of the City of Santa Ana. No Prime, Unique, or
Farmland or Statewide Importance is located in the vicinity of the project site. No impacts would result from the
proposed project. The proposed project would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract?
The project site is located within a fully developed, urban area of the City of Santa Ana. The project area is
designated as General Commercial, Park with Commercial, Open Space, and Low Density Residential by the
City of Santa Ana General Plan with a combination of Specific Plan (SPI), General Commercial (C), Two
Family Residential (R2), and Single Family Residential (RI) zoning designations. No agricultural uses exist on
site or in the vicinity, and the project would not conflict with a Williamson Act contract. The proposed project
would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.

c) Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause rezoning, of, forest land (as defined in Public
Resources Code section 12220(8)), timberland (as defined by Public Resources Code section
4526), or timberland zoned Timberland Production (as defined by Government Code section
51104(8))?
The project site is located within a fully developed, urban area of the City of Santa Ana. No
timberland or forest resources exist on site or in the vicinity. The project area is either designated as
General Commercial, Park with Commercial, Open Space, or Low Density Residential by the City of
Santa Ana General Plan with a combination of Specific Plan (SP1), General Commercial (C2), Two
Family Residential (R2), and Single Family Residential (R1) zoning designations. Implementation of
the proposed project would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
d) Result in the loss of forest land or conversion of forest land to non - forest use?
The project site is located within a fully developed, urban area of the City of Santa Ana. No forest land
is located on site or in the vicinity. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in
greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
e) Involve other changes in the existing environment which, due to their location or nature, could
result in conversion of Farmland, to non - agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non -
forest use
The project site is fully developed with no agricultural uses within or in the vicinity. No impact would result
from the proposed project. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in greater impacts than
previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
3.3 Air Quality
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures, subsections
H, Air Quality and V. Construction Impacts of the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan?
The Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project is a component of the Proposed Widening of Bristol Street from
Warner Avenue to Memory Lane, which was approved in 1990. The Bristol Street Widening Phase IV Project is
included as project number ORA125 in the regional emissions analysis conducted by SCAG for the conforming
2013 FTIP adopted by SLAG on September 19, 2012 and approved by FHWA on December 14, 2012. As
provided in the FTIP, the Approved Project description reads as follows:

The Phase IV Project's design concept and scope have not changed significantly from what was analyzed in the
RTIP and FTIP. This analysis found that the plan and, therefore, the individual projects contained in the plan,
are conforming projects, and would have air quality impacts consistent with those identified in the state
implementation plans (SIPS) for achieving the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). FHWA
determined the RTIP to conform to the SIP.
The Phase IV Project's open to the public year is consistent with (within the same regional emission analysis
period as) the construction completion date identified in the FTIP and/or RTP. The FTIP gives priority to
eligible TCMs identified in the SIP and provides sufficient funds to provide for their implementation. FHWA
determined the TIP to conform to the SIP on December 2010.
The Phase IV Project is also included in the 2013 TIP adopted by SCAG on September 6, 2012 and approved by
FHWA on December 14, 2012.
The Proposed Widening of Bristol Street, from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane project has been included in
the federal TIP since 1992. The federal TIP gives priority to eligible TCMs identified in the SIP and provides
sufficient funds to provide for their implementation. FHWA determined the TIP to conform to the SIP on April
2, 2009. No significant impacts would occur. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in greater
impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Furthermore, the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB) is designated by the state and US Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) as nonattaimnent for ozone (03 ), and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5 ). The South Coast
Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) developed regional emissions thresholds to determine whether or
not a project would contribute to air pollutant violations. If a project exceeds the regional air pollutant
thresholds, then the project would substantially contribute to air quality violations in the SCAB. In addition, a
project would also contribute to air pollutant violations if localized emissions result in an exceedanee of the
ambient air quality standards (AAQS).
Short -term emissions generated during project - related construction activities would not exceed the SCAQMD
regional emissions thresholds for any of the criteria pollutants and also would not substantially elevate localized
concentrations of these pollutants. Consequently, the project would be consistent with the AQMP. Long -tern
emissions generated by the project would not exceed the SCAQMD thresholds for regional emissions and would
therefore also not contribute to an increase in frequency or severity of air quality violations.
The proposed project would be consistent with the Major Arterial designation of the City of Santa Ana General
Plan Circulation Element and the County of Orange's Master Plan of Arterial Highways. Additionally, the
project would improve traffic flow and result in a reduction in air pollutant emissions.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality
violation?
Short -tern emissions were modeled for the construction phase of the proposed street widening project.
Construction activities associated with the project would include demolition of pavement and buildings, fine
grading, trenching, paving, and development of ancillary strictures. During construction activities, emissions
from heavy equipment exhaust, delivery trucks, and fugitive dust would be generated for a short duration. To

accurately determine the significance of air quality impacts from construction activities, construction emissions
are quantified and compared to the significance thresholds set by the SCAQMD. Project - specific data, such as
construction timelines and dimensions of the project site, along with general operating guidelines, were used as
inputs to the SCAQMD's California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) Model (version 2011.1.1) to
quantify construction emissions. As shown in Table 3, emissions calculated by this model were compared to the
SCAQMD's regional significance thresholds.
As shown in Table 3, emissions attributable to construction of the proposed project were found to be below the
significance thresholds adopted by the SCAQMD for all the analyzed air pollutants. Because emissions were
found to be below the SCAQMD's significance thresholds, project related construction emissions are not
considered by the SCAQMD to result in a significant impact. In addition, mitigation measures included in the
1990 Final EIS /EIR would further reduce construction- related air quality impacts.

An assessment of regional emissions associated with the operations phase of the proposed project was also
conducted which compared emissions with and without the proposed project. Air pollutant emissions generated
by roadway vehicles are quantified based on emissions rates that vary based on vehicle speed. Because the
Proposed Project would increase the roadway capacity along Bristol Street, traffic congestion would be
alleviated and average vehicle speeds would increase along improved roadway segments. Table
4 shows the emissions that would occur with and without the proposed Project based on the average vehicle
speeds. As shown in Table 4, air pollutant emissions would be less under the With Project Alternative as
opposed to the No Project Alternative due to the lower emission rates associated with higher average vehicle
speeds. The SCAQMD has established significance thresholds to determine whether the operations phase of
projects would result in significant impacts to regional air quality. The proposed project would result in air
pollutant emissions which are below these significance thresholds and would result in a beneficial impact in
emissions due to improvements in operational phase efficiencies along project roadway segments for the 2015
project opening year.
Emissions occurring during the 2035 design year were also quantified based on the LOS, average vehicle speed
and emission rates that would occur with and without the proposed project. As shown in Table 5, air pollutant
emissions occurring under the With Project Alternative would be less than under the No Project Alternative due
to lower emission rates associated with higher average speeds. Consequently, the Proposed Project for the 2035

by roadway vehicles are quantified based on emissions rates that vary based on vehicle speed. Because the
Proposed Project would increase the roadway capacity along Bristol Street, traffic congestion would be

c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the
project region is non - attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality
standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone
precursors)?
The SCAB is designated by the EPA and the State as being nonattainment for 03 , PM10 , and PM2.5 . In
accordance with SCAQMD methodology, any project that does not exceed or can be mitigated to less than
the daily threshold values does not add significantly to a cumulative impact. Since the proposed project would
not exceed the SCAQMD's significance thresholds for construction activities or the operations phase, the
SCAQMD does not consider emissions from the project to add significantly to any cumulative impact.
Furthermore, it should be noted that the proposed project would increase the capacity at three out of the four
study intersections (Bristol Street at Edinger Avenue has already been widened) during both AM and PM
peak hours. Increases in roadway capacity would result in improvement in the LOS along Bristol Street. The
improvement in LOS would result in increases in average vehicle speed and reductions in the amount of delay
vehicles experience at intersections thereby resulting in both lower emissions and lower emissions rates
associated with higher vehicle speeds. As such, the project would continue to result in a beneficial impact.
Implementation of the proposed project would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the
1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No additional new mitigation measures are required.
d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations?
A project could have the potential to expose sensitive receptors to elevated pollutant concentrations if it
would cause or contribute substantially to elevated pollutant concentration levels or place the project in an
area with elevated pollutant concentrations. An evaluation of air pollutant emissions as it affects local
sensitive receptors has been conducted for both the construction and operations phases of the project.
Localized Construction Impacts
Localized air pollutant emissions are evaluated relative to the exposure of local sensitive uses to air pollutant
concentrations generated by the proposed Project. These are pollutant concentrations which can be directly
correlated to the health -based ambient air quality standards. This differs from regional emissions which were
discussed previously in that regional emissions are used to assess how much air pollution is generated within
an air basin and does not have a direct correlation with health effects.
Localized Significance Thresholds (LSTs) have been developed by the SCAQMD for NOx , CO, PM10, and
PM2.5 . The LSTs determine whether project- related emissions would substantially contribute to or exceed
the ambient air quality standards and expose sensitive receptors to excessive concentrations of air pollutants.
The LSTs differ based on distance such that a greater allowance in air pollutant emissions is allowed for
construction activities occurring further from a sensitive use and a lesser allowance in emissions is given for
construction activities occurring closer to sensitive uses.
Only short-teen emissions occurring at the project site for the Project's constriction phase were included to
determine if sensitive receptors local to the project site would adversely affected. Emissions generated by
construction activities disperse rapidly with distance from the construction site. Individual construction
phases were compared against the SCAQMD's LST significance criteria. As shown in Table 6, project
emissions would not exceed the LST screening level criteria for CO, NO2 , PM10 , or PM2.5 . Because
emissions associated with this alternative would be less than the LST, onsite construction emissions would
not be expected to exceed the federal or California AAQS at the nearest sensitive receptors. As such, no
significant air quality impacts related to localized air pollutants would occur from the construction phase.

ACTIVITIES
Intersection Hot -Spots
While the proposed Project would not result in any direct sources of localized emissions due to the roadway
street lighting being powered by electricity, changes in LOS or traffic volumes due to the project may cause
indirect sources of localized emissions. While emissions of motor vehicles have improved due to more
stringent vehicle emissions standards and the use of cleaner burning fuels, they continue to be the primary
source of local emissions within the study area. Localized areas where ambient concentrations exceed
national and /or state standards for CO are known as hotspots. The SCAQMD defines typical sensitive
receptors as residences, schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, athletic facilities, long -term health care
facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, and retirement homes.
Because CO is produced in greatest quantities from vehicle combustion and does not readily disperse into the
atmosphere, adherence to AAQS is typically demonstrated through an analysis of localized CO
concentrations. Areas of vehicle congestion have the potential to create pockets of CO called "hot spots."
These pockets have the potential to exceed the state one -hour standard of 20 ppm or the eight -hour standard
of 9.0 ppm. Note that the federal levels are based on one- and eight -hour standards of 35 and 9 ppm,
respectively. Thus, an exceedance condition would occur based on the state standards before the federal
standards.
The following intersections were modeled for CO hotspots:
Bristol Street and Warner Avenue
Bristol Street and Glenwood Place
Bristol Street and St. Andrew Place
Bristol Street and W. Edinger Avenue
As shown in Table 7, both the 1 -hour and 8 -hour CO concentrations at the intersections that were affected by
the proposed project would be substantially below the California and federal ambient air quality standards for
CO, potential CO impacts related to the project alternatives are below AAQS and would not result in a
significant air quality impact from CO hotspots.

As discussed previously, the proposed project would not result in air pollutant concentrations that exceed the
SCAQMD's Localized Significance Thresholds for construction activities. In addition, the operations phase of
the project would not result in CO hotspots. As such, the constriction and operations phases of the project
would not result in significant impacts to air quality which would expose sensitive receptors to substantial air

3.4 Biological Resources
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures, subsection
E, Streambed Modification, of the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any
species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special - status species in local or regional plans,
policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service?
The project site is located within a fully developed urban area within the City of Santa Ana. No special natural
habitat exists on or in the vicinity of the proposed project. Implementation of the proposed project would not
result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community
identified in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations or by the California Department of
Fish and Game or US Fish and Wildlife Service?
Refer to response in 3.4 (a), above. No riparian habitat or other sensitive natural communities are identified in
the project area or vicinity. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in greater impacts than
previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of
the Clean Water Act (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through
direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means?
Refer to response in 3.4 (a), above. No federally protected wetlands are identified in the project area or
vicinity. The proposed project is located within a fully developed urban area of the City. Implementation of the
proposed project would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife
species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of
native wildlife nursery sites?
The proposed project would not interfere with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or
wildlife species, corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites, as none are located within the
project area. The proposed project is located within a fully developed urban area of the City. Implementation
of the proposed project would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final
EIS/EIR.

preservation policy or ordinance?
The proposed project may involve the removal of existing landscaping, including trees. Any removal or
planting of trees is required to comply with the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code, Article VII, Regulation of
the Planting, Maintenance, and Removal of Trees. Furthermore, the proposed project would not conflict with
the City's tree ordinance. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in greater impacts than
previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
f) Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community
Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan?
The proposed project site is not a part of any habitat conservation plan. The project site is developed with
urban uses and no natural conservation plans are adopted for the area. Implementation of the proposed project
would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
3.5 Cultural Resources
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures, subsection
T, Cultural Resources, of the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as de£med in §
15064.5?
The proposed project would not involve changes that were not addressed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR. Based on
aerial photographs and a windshield survey, the structures do not appear to be of historical significance due to
unique architecture and are not anticipated to cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a
historical resource. Land uses within the Phase IV project area affected parcels include single family
residential, parking lots, strip malls, shopping plazas, and various office uses. Implementation of the proposed
project would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to
15064.5?
Due to the limited area of disturbance, within an existing developed and urban area, and limited depth of
proposed excavations, the potential to uncover archaeological resources is considered low. However,
implementation of mitigation measures as included in the previously approved 1990 Final EIS /EIR would
reduce impacts to archaeological resources yet uncovered or undiscovered. The proposed project would not
result in archaeological impacts greater than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic
feature?

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM
Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
As shown in Chapter VI, Resources Element, of the County of Orange General Plan, the project site is not
located in an area of paleontological sensitivity. Also, the proposed project would involve only shallow
excavation. Furthermore, since the project area is already developed, the potential for discovering
paleontological resources during construction is low. Soils occurring in the project area are mostly Quaternary
Alluvium. Typically, these deposits are less than 10,000 years old, and not likely to contain important fossils.
No greater impacts to paleontological resources than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR would
result from project implementation.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries?
The project site is located within a fully developed urban area of the City. No formal cemeteries are located
within the project area or vicinity. However, in the event that human remains are uncovered during grading or
excavation, contractors are required to comply with the procedures and requirements set forth in the California
Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 and Public Resources Code Section
2098.98. The County Coroner and, in the event that the remains are Native American, the Native American
Heritage Commission would be notified and, in turn, would notify those persons believed to be most likely
descended from the deceased for appropriate disposition of the remains. The proposed project would not result
in human remains impact greater than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.

1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
a) ii Strong seismic ground shaking?
The Newport - Inglewood Fault is the closest fault to the project site and is the most likely source of ground
shaking impacts. The proposed project is an intersection widening project and would not expose people or
structures to adverse ground shaking impact. The proposed widening would not result in greater impacts than
previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.

a) iii Seismic - related ground failure, including liquefaction?
The project site is not identified by the 1990 EIS /EIR as having a high liquefaction potential but is near areas
classified as high to medium liquefaction potential. In addition, the project would be constructed to achieve the
standards outlined in the California Building Code to reduce impacts in this regard. Consequently, the
proposed project would not expose people or structures to potential liquefaction impact. The proposed
widening would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
a) iv Landslides?
The proposed project site is generally flat and does not contain any significant slopes. The proposed Project
would not result in greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil?
Exposure of barren rock and soil surfaces during construction would result in soil erosion. However,
considering the slight gradient, anticipated erosion impact is minimal. Furthermore, the project would be
subject to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting regulation, including the
development and implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) during construction
activities. The SWPPP requires construction contractors to implement best management practices (BMPs) to
reduce sediment from impacting the stormwater system. The increased erosion impact due to the intersection
widening would not be substantially greater than previously analyzed.
c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of
the project, and potentially result in on- or off -site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence,
liquefaction or collapse?
The 1990 EIS /EIR indicated that there are no instances of midisturbed, natural soils. The project site is
underlain by well- drained alluvial fan or flood plains and is not included in the areas of high subsidence or
high liquefaction hazard (but located south of an area identified as high to medium subsidence for
liquefaction). The project area is fully developed with urban uses within the City. The proposed project will be
constructed in accordance with the standards of the Uniform Building Code (UBC). The proposed project
would not create greater impact than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18 -1 -B of the Uniform Building Code (1994),
creating substantial risks to life or property?

The proposed project would not include the construction of any structures other than relocation of existing
utilities. The proposed project would not create substantial risks to life or property and the proposed project
would not create greater impacts than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water
disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water?
The proposed project would not generate any sewage or wastewater and would not require installation of any
septic tanks or alternative wastewater systems. No impacts are anticipated in this regard.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
3.7 Greenhouse Gas Emissions
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures, subsection
H, Air Quality, and V. Construction Impacts of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant
impact on the environment?
The 1990 Final EIS /EIR did not evaluate global climate change or greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts.
Construction activities would consume fuel and result in the generation of GHG emissions. Construction of the
project is anticipated to begin in the early 2015 and be complete later that year. Construction- related GHG
emissions would cease upon completion of the project. Due to the length of construction activities, GHG
emissions associated with construction activities are anticipated to be minimal. Because construction emissions
are not substantial and would cease after completion of construction, GHG emissions would not be significant.
Furthermore, the project proposes intersection widening of Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Saint
Andrew Place, therefore only carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions from mobile- sources are evaluated. Similar to
the other criteria pollutants, the highest emissions would occur between 0 to 10 mph and 50 mph and above.
Because the project would improve traffic flow within the Phase IV project area, the project would result in
reduced CO2 emissions. Consequently, GHG emissions associated with the project would be less than
significant.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the
emissions of greenhouse gases?
The proposed project would not conflict with applicable plans, policy or regulations adopted for the purpose of
reducing the emissions of GHG. The proposed project would result in improved traffic flow, reduced vehicle
idling times and congestion. Implementation of the proposed project would not result in new impacts to GHG.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.

3.8 Hazards and Hazardous Materials
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
subsections V, Construction Impacts, X, Hazardous Materials, of the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use,
or disposal of hazardous materials?
The proposed project would result in demolition of structures. Compliance with the standard protocol
surveys and abating procedures would be required prior to any demolition activities that would potentially
disturb existing building materials. Furthermore, specific requirements limiting asbestos emissions from
building demolition activities are set forth in SCAQMD Rule 1403 (Asbestos Emission From
Demolition /Renovation Activities). The existing structures to be demolished and roadway paintings and
markers are also required to be surveyed for lead -based paint prior to demolition, in compliance with the
applicable local, state, and federal regulations administered through the California Division of Occupational
Safety and Health. Compliance with existing regulations would ensure that impacts are not greater than
previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EISBIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required
b) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable
upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment?
Refer to response in 3.8 (a), above. Compliance with existing regulations and mitigation measures from the
1990 Final EISBIR would ensure that impacts are not greater than previously analyzed in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or
waste within one - quarter mile of an existing or proposed school?
There are two schools that lie within one - quarter mile of the project site. Table 8 provides a summary of
schools within the Bristol Street Widening ,Phase IV project area.

Hazardous materials can be classified into four basic categories: toxins, flammables, irritants, and
explosives. Toxins include a broad range of industrial chemicals and agricultural pesticides that may cause
serious illness or death to humans. Irritants can cause inflammation or destruction of living tissue with
effects ranging from mild to severe, depending on the degree of exposure and material involved.
Flammables pose the threat of combustion at low ignition temperatures and rapid burning characteristics.
Explosives can produce rapid chemical reactions causing damage from blast and flash fire.
Because of their widespread use, it was assumed that each type of hazardous material was transported
through, used, or stored to some degree, within the project area. Storage and use of hazardous materials was,
and still is, generally limited to the industrial area to the west although hazardous materials are used or
stored along Bristol Street at businesses such as gas stations, auto service shops, metal polishing and plating
operations, and medical clinics. Both Mater Dei High School and Jose Andres Sepulveda Elementary School
were identified and evaluated for potential impact in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR. It is not anticipated that the
project would increase risk of upset beyond previous conditions. Therefore, health risks associated with
project construction activities would be less than significant and impacts are not greater than previously
analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant
to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to
the public or the environment?
The proposed project site involves the widening of an existing intersection. The project area is developed
with commercial and retail uses. Compliance with existing regulations and mitigation measures from the
1990 Final EIS /EIR would ensure that impacts are not greater than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been
adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in
a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area?
The project site is not within an airport land use plan. The closest airport to the site is John Wayne — Orange
County Airport, miles southeast of the project site. The proposed widening would not introduce any new
risks or increase risks associated with the project.

Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
f) For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety
hazard for people residing or working in the project area?
The project site is not within the vicinity of a private airstrip and would not create any safety hazard. The
proposed project would not create additional significant impact.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
g) Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or
emergency evacuation plan?
The disruption of traffic and restricted access along Bristol Street between Warner Avenue and Saint
Andrew Place during construction would affect the mobility of emergency vehicles. However, provisions
would be made for interim access and traffic control plans would be prepared prior to each step in the
construction process. Advance warning and information signs would be used to reduce the confusion
motorists may experience during the construction process. It is expected that Bristol Street would remain
open during construction. Although the proposed project may interfere with an emergency evacuation plan,
it would be short term during construction, and the mobility would improve once the project is completed.
Compliance with mitigation measures from the 1990 Final EIS /EIR would ensure that impacts are not
greater than previously analyzed in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
h) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving wildland
fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are
intermixed with wildlands?
The proposed project site is developed with various urban uses within the City. There are no wildlands in the
project vicinity and no new significant impacts would result with project implementation.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
3.9 Hydrology and Water Quality
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
subsections C, Erosion Impacts, D, Floodplain /Floodway Encroachment, and F, Water Quality of the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements?
As part of Section 402 of the Clean Water Act, the EPA has established regulations under the National
Pollution Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES) program to control direct stormwater discharges. The
proposed project would be required to comply with the NPDES program for the Santa Ana Regional Water
Quality Control Board (SARWQCB).

Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
Construction Activities
Grading and excavation and use of hazardous materials during construction would create potential sources
of polluted discharge. The construction contractor is required to conform to the requirements of the
Statewide NPDES Storm Water Permit. Pursuant to the CWA, in 2001, the State Water Quality Control
Board (SWRCB) issued a statewide general NPDES Permit for stormwater discharges from construction
sites ( NPDES No. CAS000002). Under this Statewide General Construction Activity permit, discharges of
stormwater from construction sites with a disturbed area of one or more acres are required to either obtain
individual NPDES permits for stormwater discharges or to be covered by the General Permit. In addition,
best management practices (BMPs) specified in the Caltrans Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) are
also applicable. The construction contractor is required to conform to the requirements of the General
NPDES Permit for Construction Activities and any subsequent General Permit in effect at the time of project
construction.
As part of the statewide NPDES permit, the construction contractor would be required to implement BMPs
into their construction operations to reduce potential water quality impacts to the maximum extent
practicable through preparation of a SWPPP. The General Permit contains requirements that BMPs must
meet, including:
Erosion Control
Erosion control, also called stabilization, is the protection of the soil surface so that soil particles do not
become detached by water or wind; and trapping soil particles that do become detached and are moved by
water or wind.
Non - Stormwater Management
Non- stormwater management is the reduction or avoidance of discharges other than stonnwater, such as
from cleaning of vehicles and equipment, and spills of hazardous materials and hazardous wastes. Non-
stormwater management includes requirements for the use and storage of hazardous substances so as to
avoid spills and minimizes pollution by cleaning spills that do occur.
The SWPPP contains BMPs chosen for a project based on the specific activities that would be conducted as
part of that project, and the amounts of stormwater and non - stormwater runoff that are anticipated. The
1990 Final EIS /EIR included a mitigation measure to control stormwater runoff associated with construction
activities. Impacts would be less than significant and would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final
EIS/EIR. Moreover, the project would comply with the updated NPDES requirements, as described above.
Operational Phase
Operation of the proposed intersection has the potential to degrade water quality as a result of vehicular
travel, including increases in such pollutants as oil, gasoline, grease, lead, and dust. Discharge from the
proposed project to stormwater facilities would consist of non -point sources. Stormwater quality is generally
affected by the length of time since the last rainfall, rainfall intensity, urban uses of the area, and the quantity
of transported sediments. Typical urban water quality pollutants usually result from motor vehicle
operations, oil and grease residue. The majority of pollutant loads are usually washed away during the first
flush of the storm occurring after the dry season period. Due to the nature of the proposed project, generally
occurring within an existing developed area, project impacts are not considered adverse. Consequently,
impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.

b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater
recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local
groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre - existing nearby wells would drop to a
level that would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been
granted)?
The project site is already developed and is not a groundwater recharging area. The proposed Bristol Street
Widening Phase IV project would not result in increased water consumption and would not deplete
groundwater supplies. No impact to groundwater supplies would result from the proposed project. No
mitigation measures are necessary. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the
alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner that would result in substantial
erosion or siltation on- or off -site?
The project site is already developed and the existing drainage pattern would not be changed due to the
implementation of Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project. The storm drain improvements would be
limited to relocation and /or construction of catch basins as necessary. Therefore, implementation of the
proposed project would not result in a substantial erosion or siltation on- or offsite due to drainage alteration.
No mitigation measures are necessary. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the
alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of
surface runoff in a manner that would result in flooding on- or off -site?
The project site is already developed and the existing drainage pattern would not be changed due to the
Bristol Street Widening Phase IV. 'Be storm drain improvements would be limited to construction of
properly designed curb and gutter as necessary. The proposed project would not result in substantial
reduction in impervious ground surfaces. The proposed project would not increase the rate or amount of
surface runoff to create on- or offsite flooding. Impacts would not be greater than previously analyzed in the
1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
e) Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or
planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted
runoff?
The project site is already developed and the existing drainage pattern would not be changed due to the
Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project. The storm drain improvements would be limited to construction of
catch basins as necessary. The proposed project would not result in substantial increase in impervious
ground surfaces. The proposed project would not increase the rate or amount of surface runoff to create on-
or offsite flooding. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.

f) Otherwise substantially degrade water quality?
The project site is currently developed and the proposed project would not result in substantial changes to
the volume or nature of the urban runoff. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR. The proposed project would be required to adhere to water quality regulatory requirements, as
described above.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
g) Place housing within a 100 -year flood hazard area as mapped on a federal Flood Hazard
Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map?
The proposed widening would not place any housing within a 100 -year flooding zone as mapped by the
FIRM. No impact would result from the proposed project. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the
1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
h) Place within a 100 -year flood hazard area structures which would impede or redirect flood
flows?
The Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project would not place any structures within a 100 -year flood hazard
zone. No impact would result from the proposed project.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
i) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding,
including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam?
The proposed street widening does not involve development of any above -grade structures except for the
relocation of utility poles. Therefore, the proposed project would not expose people or structures to a
significant flooding risk any greater than what is already existing onsite. No impact would result from the
proposed project.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
j) Inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow?
The project site is approximately 10 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. The likelihood of tsunami
impacting a site more than five miles inland is minimal. The project site and its vicinity are built out with
urban uses and there is no unusual slope or geologic feature in the area. The potential for seiche, tsunami, or
mudflow impacting the project site is less than significant. Impacts would be similar to those identified in
the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.

This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
subsection A, Landfonn Modification, of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Physically divide an established community?
The project area is developed with various urban uses and the proposed widening would not divide an
established community. Although there would be partial and full takes, the project would not create a
physical barrier to separate a community. The proposed project would not introduce any significant land use
impacts than previously analyzed. No significant impact would result from the project implementation.
Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction
over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal
program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an
environmental effect?
The proposed project would not result in changes to the land use designation of the acquired parcels. The
proposed project is in compliance with the existing designation and would not create a new conflict. No
significant impact is anticipated. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community
conservation plan?
The project site is not a part of any habitat conservation plan. The project site is already fully developed and
the proposed widening would not conflict with any habitat conservation plan or natural community. No

b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally - important mineral resource recovery site
delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan?
The project site is currently developed and is not delineated as a mineral resources recovery site by the City
of Santa Ana General Plan. Implementation of the proposed project would have no impact on the mineral
resources and no mitigation measures are necessary. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990

Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
3.12 Noise
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
Subsection I, Noise, and V, Construction Impacts of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in the
local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies?
The proposed project involves widening of Bristol Street between Warner Avenue and Saint Andrew Place.
The land uses in between Warner Avenue and St. Gertrude Place, and adjacent to the project, are
commercial (Category C) on the west side of Bristol Street, and a mix of residential and commercial land
uses on the east side of Bristol Street. The land uses on both sides of Bristol Street between St. Gertrude and
St. Andrew Place are residential. Mater Dei High School is located along the east side of Bristol Street north
of St. Andrew Place. Jose Andres Sepulveda Elementary School is west of Bristol Street in this same area.
The future noise modeling results of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR indicated that future noise levels would be no
more than one dBA higher with the project as compared to levels without project improvements (noise level
changes of less than 3 dBA are normally inaudible to the human ear).
The 1990 Final EIS /EIR (and 2013 NEPA Reevaluation) provided comprehensive noise barriers at all
easterly parcel boundaries currently fronting the east side of Bristol Street between Warner Avenue and
Saint Andrew Place and comprehensive noise barriers at all westerly parcel boundaries currently fronting the
west side of Bristol Street between West Saint Gertrude Place and Saint Andrew Place. The following noise
barriers were determined to be reasonable: NB -4, NB -5, NB -6, NB -7, NB -8, NB -9, NB -10, and NB -11.
These noise barriers are generally equivalent to the recommended noise barriers shown in the 1990 FEIS and
2013 Reevaluation. However, barriers NB -6, NB -7, NB -8, and NB -9 would need to be shifted to the west of
the receivers (parcels) that are no longer being acquired in whole such that these barriers are now proposed
at the westerly parcel boundaries that front the east side of Bristol Street between Saint Anne Place and Saint
Andrew Place (refer to Figure 7a and Figure 7b). Furthermore, the reasonable noise barriers would be
constructed at a height of 8 feet, as opposed to 6 feet as identified in the 1990 FEIS and 2013 NEPA
Reevaluation. The modifications and other refinements to the project would not create any additional
impacts than what was identified in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
With implementation of the mitigation measures from the 1990 Final EIS /EIR, noise impacts would be
similar to that identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.

b) Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise
levels?
Refer to response in 3.12 (a.) above. Project construction will involve typical groundborne noise and
vibration. However, the majority of construction activities will consist of standard procedures, and will be
relatively limited for any particular area. Construction activities would comply with the City of Santa Ana
Municipal Code, which limits construction noise to the least noise sensitive portions of the day. Impacts
would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR with implementation of mitigation measures
as included in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels
existing without the project?
Refer to response in 3.12 (a.) above. During construction of the proposed project, the noise associated with
construction may intermittently dominate the noise environment in the immediate area of construction.
Typical construction equipment for roadway construction is expected to generate noise levels ranging from
74 to 89 decibels (0) at a distance of 50 feet. However, no additional adverse noise impacts from
construction are anticipated as construction would comply with the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code,
which limits construction noise to the least noise sensitive portions of the day. Construction equipment
would be properly fitted and maintained according to the manufacturer's specifications. Furthermore,
construction noise would be short-tern, temporary and cease upon completion of the proposed project.
Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR with implementation of mitigation
measures, as identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project
vicinity above levels existing without the project?
Refer to responses 3.12 (c), above, for discussion regarding temporary noise impacts associated with
construction.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been
adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project
expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels?
The project site is not located within an airport land use plan. The nearest airport is the John Wayne Airport
approximately 3.5 miles southeast of the southernmost Phase IV project intersection. No impacts would
occur. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
f) For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project expose people residing
or working in the project area to excessive noise levels?

3.13 Population and Housing
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
subsections L, Population, M, Housing Displacement, N, Business Displacement, O, Impacts on
Neighborhood Character and Minority Groups, and R, Effect on Assessed Property Values, of the 1990
Final EIS /EIR. No take of residential parcels is proposed as part of this project.
a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing
new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other
infrastructure?
Bristol Street and Warner Avenue are currently heavily traveled roadways and the City of Santa Ana is fully
built out. The proposed project is designed to accommodate the existing and future traffic volume and would
not create significant numbers of new trips. The proposed widening would not result in additional impact.
Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, necessitating the construction of
replacement housing elsewhere?
The proposed project's Build Alternative is anticipated to result in full or partial acquisitions of
approximately 43 parcels along the project study area. The acquired parcels are defined as distinct locations
where residential and non - residential displacement could occur along the project alignment. The project is
anticipated to result in the acquisition of 27 single - family residential units. This compares to a total of 28
single - family residential units (6 partial and 22 full acquisitions) as identified in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR. Of
the 27 residential units that would be displaced as part of the proposed Project, 14 parcels would be
considered partial acquisitions and 13 parcels would be considered full acquisitions. Since comparable
relocation properties appear to be available in the metropolitan Santa Ana area in sufficient quantity, the
need for replacement housing would not be triggered due to project implementation. The number of
displacees resulting from the Proposed project are anticipated to be less than identified in the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR due to the reduction in number of full acquisition of single - family residential units.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing
elsewhere?
The proposed project requires the acquisition of 27 single - family units could possibly result in displacing
approximately 82 residents (URS Corporation, November 2011). The construction of replacement housing
elsewhere would not be necessary because comparable relocation properties appear to be available in the
metropolitan Santa Ana area in sufficient quantity. The project involves the widening Bristol Street from
Warner Avenue to Saint Andrew Place in an urbanized, residential/commercial area of the City of Santa
Ana. The required relocations would not disproportionately affect any specific group or groups of

3.14 Public Services
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
subsections P, Impacts on Community Facilities, and V, Construction hnpacts of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Fire Protection?
The proposed project is an intersection widening project and no increase in demand for fire protection
services would occur with implementation of the proposed project. Furthermore, the proposed project would
result in positive impacts as a result of greater congestion relief and increased mobility in the vicinity for
motor vehicles including emergency vehicles. hnpacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final
EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Police Protection?
Refer to response for Section 3.14 (a), above. The proposed project would reduce congestion and traffic
idling times, and therefore, increase mobility of emergency vehicles, including police vehicles. The
proposed project would not result in the need or increase the demand for police services in the area.

a) Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other
recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur
or be accelerated?
The proposed project is not a growth- inducing project and would not create demand for recreation services.
Physical deterioration of recreational facilities would not result from the proposed intersection widening and
no impact would result from the project implementation. No mitigation measures are required with regards
to recreational resources. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of
recreational facilities that might have an adverse physical effect on the environment?
The proposed intersection widening would not require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities
and no adverse physical impact would be generated. No mitigation measures are required. Impacts would be
similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
3.16 Transportation /Traffic
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,

a) Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy establishing measures of effectiveness for
the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation
including mass transit and non - motorized travel and relevant components of the circulation
system, including but not limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian
and bicycle paths, and mass transit.
The Bristol Street Widening Phase IV project is consistent with the applicable plans, ordinances and policies
establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system as described in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR. The widening of Bristol Street was designated in the Orange County Master 'Plan, and was
recommended in the Bristol Street Corridor Study — Final Report by Mohle, Grover & Associates in 1983. It
was also recommended in the Arterial Highway Element — Santa Ana Element — Santa Ana Transportation
Corridor State II Alternative Analysis prepared by Parsons Brinkerhoff Quade and Douglas, Inc., in 1983.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORTADDENDUM
Bristol Street Widening Project Warner Ave to Saint Andrew Place (Phase IV)
1985. Furthermore, the proposed project would result in an improvement to the Bristol Street at Warner
Avenue, Glenwood Place, and Saint Andrew Place intersections. Impacts would be similar to those
identified in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Conflict with an applicable congestion management program, including, but not limited to
level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other standards established by the
county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways?
The proposed project would result in an improvement to Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Saint
Andrew Place. Once the project has been implemented, all roadway segments would operate at LOS D or
better. The proposed project would not cause the County congestion agency's LOS standards to be
exceeded. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a
change in location that results in substantial safety risks?
The closest airport to the site is John Wayne — Orange County Airport, located approximately 3.5 miles
southeast of the project site. The proposed project would have no impact on air traffic patterns. The
proposed project would not introduce any new risks or increase risks. Impacts would be similar to those
identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous
intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)?
The proposed project would improve the traffic flow along Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Saint
Andrew Place and would not create any sharp curves or other incompatible uses. The proposed project
would not create any significant hazards beyond what was previously analyzed. Impacts would be similar to
those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
e) Result in inadequate emergency access?
The proposed project would improve traffic flow along Bristol Street in the long -term. However, during the
construction phase, the disruption of traffic and restricted access along Bristol Street could temporarily
affect the mobility of emergency vehicles. Provisions would be made for interim access, and traffic control
plans would be prepared prior to construction. Additionally, advance warning and information signs would
be used to reduce the confusion motorists may experience during the construction process. Bristol Street
would remain open during construction. Although the proposed project may interfere with emergency access
in the short -tern, it would improve emergency access once the project is completed. The proposed project
would not result in a more significant impact to emergency access than previously analyzed, and with the
implementation of mitigation measures as prescribed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.

Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
f) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs regarding public transit, bicycle, or
pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of such facilities?
The proposed project supports the use of public transportation and it would not conflict with any alternative
transportation plan and would increase safety. The proposed project would not result in impacts greater than
as described in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
3.17 Utilities and Service Systems
This section corresponds with Section IV, Environmental Consequences and Mitigation Measures,
subsections S, Effect on Utilities, and V, Construction Impacts of the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
a) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable Regional Water Quality
Control Board?
The proposed project would not generate any sewer demand and would not change the sewer quality. No
impacts are anticipated in this regard.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
b) Require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or
expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant
environmental effects?
The proposed road widening project would not generate the need for water and wastewater services from the
City of Santa Ana Public Works Agency and the Orange County Sanitation District, respectively. The
existing sewer and water lines beneath Bristol Street would not be relocated. The proposed project would not
create any new significant environmental impact. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
c) Require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of
existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects?
The project site is already fully developed and the proposed project would not change the runoff volume
significantly. Instead, the proposed project would improve existing drainage flow by constructing properly
designed curb and gutter along the edges of Bristol Street. Implementation of the proposed project would not
result in any new significant environmental impact. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.

d) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and
resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed?
The proposed project would not result in any increase in water consumption. Landscape improvements, if
applicable, would not require any new or expanded water entitlements. The proposed project would not
create any new significant environmental impact. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990
Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required
e) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve
the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in
addition to the provider's existing commitments?
The proposed roadway widening project would not generate any sewer demands. No new significant impact
is anticipated. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
f) Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to accommodate the project's solid
waste disposal needs?
The proposed project would generate construction waste on a short -term basis. The City has two haulers,
Waste Management and Ware Disposal, which provide recycling services for construction and demolition
projects. Construction waste that cannot be recycled would be taken to available landfills. The predominant
receiving landfill for the City is the Frank R. Bowerman Sanitary Landfill at 11002 Bee Canyon Access
Road in Irvine. The landfill, which is owned and operated by the Orange County Integrated Waste
Management Department, opened in 1990 and is scheduled to operate until approximately 2022. The facility
has adequate landfill capacity to serve the proposed project and no new significant environmental impact
would result from the project implementation. Impacts would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final
EIS/EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.
g) Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste?
The proposed project would comply with all applicable federal, state, and local statutes and regulations
related to solid waste. The proposed project would comply with the City's established reduction, reuse, and
recycling programs. No new significant solid waste impact would result from the proposed project. Impacts
would be similar to those identified in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR.
Mitigation Measures
No new additional mitigation measures are required.

circumstances or new information, including any new or revised environmental laws, regulations, or policies
have not modified the impacts of the proposed project.
a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment,
substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population
to drop below self- sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community,
reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate
important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory?
The proposed project would not result in greater impacts as compared with the 1990 Final EIS /EIR and does
not have the potential to degrade the environment, reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, threaten
plant or animal communities, reduce or restrict endangered plant or animal species or eliminate important
examples of major periods of California history or prehistory.
b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable?
Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are
considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of
other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)?
Due to the relatively limited nature of the proposed project and in consideration of mitigation measures
addressed in the 1990 Final EIS/EIR, the project would not involve impacts that are cumulatively
considerable.
c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on
human beings, either directly or indirectly?
Construction - related activities are anticipated to have some minor, temporary impacts, which can be
mitigated with implementation of measures included in the 1990 Final EIS /EIR. Furthermore, potential long-
term impacts would be reduced to less than significant levels through implementation of required mitigation
measures.

Modified Initial Study Checklist
The following Modified Initial Study (MIS) Checklist is based on the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Initial Study Checklist. It is modified to evaluate the proposed project changes for which environmental impact
reports /statements have previously been completed to assist in the determination of the need for supplemental
environmental documents, in this case, a Supplemental EIS/EIR or an Addendum under Public Resources Code
21166 and Guideline Sections 15162, 15163, and 15164. For purposes of this study, references to "the proposal' in
the left hand column questions refer to the proposed project changes.
The first four columns to the right of the MIS questions identify whether the proposed project changes would result
in new impacts and if so whether these impacts would be less than significant, less than significant after mitigation,
or significant.
The fifth column asks whether or not the impacts associated with project changes, if any, were sufficiently disclosed
in the previous environmental documents (Not Addressed).
Finally, the last column indicates whether or not a Supplemental EIS /EIR is needed. A Supplemental EIS /EIR would
be needed if there were new significant unmitigated or substantially more severe impacts which would result from
the project changes and which were not sufficiently disclosed in the previous environmental documents.
Discussion in support of the conclusions indicated on the checklist is provided in Chapter 3

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT WORKSHEET
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Bristol Street Improvements project was planned and designed to
incorporate complete street concepts with storm water quality features. The
improvements include widening of the street from four lanes to six lanes,
with bus turnouts, raised median, bike lanes, enhanced storm drain system,
and sound walls. The project also brings native and organic landscaping
that beautifies a fully developed urban area.
PROJECT NEED:
Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to St. Andrew Place (Phase 4) is part of the
City's plan to widen Bristol Street from Warner Avenue to Memory Lane, which
was approved by City Council in 1990 and reevaluated in 2015. Existing
roadway has only 2 lanes in each direction and is operating at a Level of
Service (LOS) F. This widening is needed to improve traffic flow and create
complete streets features.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In October 2023, City Council directed staff to invest affordable housing funds
exclusively for the development of affordable ownership opportunities. Following the

issuance of a Request for Proposals approved by City Council, staff is now
recommending an award of over $10.7 million to produce 49 new affordable ownership
opportunities for low- and moderate-income families. The homes would be developed
and purchased by Habitat for Humanity of Orange County at two sites. If approved by
City Council, this will be the single largest investment in affordable ownership
opportunities in the history of the City of Santa Ana. This will also double the number of
affordable homes that Habitat for Humanity of Orange County has created in the City
and will be the highest number of affordable homes they have created in any city in
Orange County. If this award is approved, the City of Santa Ana will have invested over
$15.8 million in new funding for affordable homeownership opportunities over the last
three years.
DISCUSSION
On October 17, 2023, the City Council authorized the Community Development Agency
(“CDA”) to release a Fiscal Year 2023-24 Request for Proposals (“RFP # 23-156”) to
develop affordable ownership projects in the City of Santa Ana (“City”) with funding from
the HOME Investment Partnerships (“HOME”) Program (Exhibit 1). The RFP was
prepared in compliance with the City’s Affordable Housing Funds Policies and
Procedures. The RFP was published on the City’s website and Planet Bids; a public
notice was published in the OC Register on October 25, 2023; and an e-mail was sent
out to Orange County’s largest affordable housing membership associations, interested
developers, and nonprofit organizations from CDA’s RFP Process Database.
A Review Panel, composed of City staff from the Community Development Agency and
Planning and Building Agency together with an affordable housing consultant, used the
Scoring and Selection Criteria from the RFP to review all of the proposals. Habitat for
Humanity of Orange County, Jamboree Housing, THRIVE Santa Ana, Mary Erikson,
and Orange County Community Housing Corporation (“OCCHC”) each submitted a
proposal during the period that the RFP was open. Jamboree Housing and THRIVE
Santa Ana ended up withdrawing their proposals. The proposal from OCCHC that was
scored and reviewed did not meet the minimum threshold requirements and the
proposal from Mary Erikson was determined to be infeasible because it was cost
prohibitive. Following this review and scoring process, and substantial due diligence, the
Review Panel is recommending the following awards for two projects for Habitat for
Humanity to create 49 new affordable ownership opportunities:
Developer: Habitat for Humanity of Orange County
•621 W. Alton Avenue: $9,807,571 in HOME Program funds for the
development of 40 new affordable ownership units including 30 homes
for low-income families at 80% Area Median Income (“AMI”) and 10
homes for moderate-income families at 120% AMI.
•425 E. Wellington Avenue: Up to $920,000 in Inclusionary Housing
Funds for eligible homebuyers to purchase nine (9) existing rental units
that will be converted into affordable ownership condominium units

including: (1) an allocation of $720,000 to the City's Down Payment
Assistance Program, and (2) a conditional award up to $200,000 for
eligible relocation costs.
Background on Habitat for Humanity of Orange County
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (“Habitat for Humanity”) is a nonprofit
organization dedicated to providing affordable housing for qualifying families. Since
1988, the organization has completed and sold 239 homes in Orange County, including
32 affordable homes in the City of Santa Ana. Habitat for Humanity is currently building
an additional six (6) new homes in the City at 1921 W. Washington Ave for low-income
families at 80% of the AMI that was made possible with $2.2 million from the City’s
Inclusionary Housing Fund. Habitat for Humanity also currently administers the City’s
Residential Rehabilitation Grant Program with $500,000 per year in Community
Development Block Grant funds. The organization is the largest provider of affordable
ownership opportunities in Orange County and also advocates for fair housing policies,
addresses substandard housing conditions, and offers families training and resources to
achieve homeownership.
Project Description - 621 W. Alton Avenue
The first pre-commitment letter for 621 W. Alton Avenue, Santa Ana, CA (APN 410-351-
02) between the City and Habitat for Humanity provides an enforceable funding
commitment of $9,807,571 in HOME Program funds for the development of 40 new
affordable ownership units (Exhibit 2). The letter is referred to as a pre-commitment
because the HOME Program has strict commitment requirements under 24 CFR Part
92 that must be met before a full commitment can be issued in the form of a Conditional
Grant Agreement. Specifically, Habitat for Humanity proposes to demolish the existing
structures on the property to build 40 new homes for affordable ownership. The project
will include 30 three-bedroom, one and a half-bath homes for low-income households
earning up to 80% of the AMI ("Low-Income Households") and 10 three-bedroom, one
and a half-bath homes for moderate-income households earning up to 120% AMI
("Moderate-Income Households"). The AMI is currently $129,000 for a four-person
household, as published by the California Department of Housing and Community
Development. Households must also meet the eligibility requirements for Habitat for
Humanity’s Affordable Homeownership Program with a residency preference for local
residents and workers in Santa Ana in accordance with Santa Ana Municipal Code
Section 8-3500.
In a preliminary design drafted by Habitat for Humanity, each unit will have a two-story
in a duplex configuration and will be approximately 1,070 square feet in size. At least
two (2) of the homes will be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant. The site
bridges the larger scale of existing multi-family properties to the north and east of the
project site with the existing single-family homes to the west. The proposed units are
arranged along paseos with a modest central courtyard located at the paseo
intersection, complementing the large park (Lillie King Park) across the street. Each unit
features a front porch and private patio. Garages and guest parking are accessed via a
looping alley, allowing efficient movement for trash collection and emergency vehicles.

There will be two parking spaces adjacent and dedicated to each home (one enclosed
and one surface). There will also be 16 additional surface parking stalls for guests,
including two ADA-accessible stalls.
The overall design and materials of the new construction will be compatible with and
complement the variation of styles within the neighborhood. Overall, the project will
include a design and quality construction materials that will ensure that the project ages
well for the duration of the building’s lifetime. Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (“KMA”)
estimates the low income affordable sales prices at $300,200 and Habitat for Humanity
is currently estimating the moderate income affordable sales prices at $389,500.
This project is being developed in partnership with Bill Taormina who is the current
owner of the land. Mr. Taormina will be holding title of the land through the entitlement
and building process. As such, he will continue to be responsible for holding costs and
pay for the property taxes and required insurance for the duration of the project and up
until the new homes are sold. Habitat for Humanity and Mr. Taormina have entered into
a Memorandum of Understanding with the agreed upon terms and details of the
partnership and land purchase.
The project will require relocation of the existing religious organizations currently
occupying and renting the existing structures on the property in compliance with the
federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act
(“Uniform Relocation Act”), and all state and local relocation requirements. Currently,
three religious organizations rent the existing structures including Faith Community
Church of Santa Ana, Fundamentalist Baptist Church, and Turning Point Fellowship.
These tenants will be provided relocation assistance that complies with the federal
Uniform Relocation Act as required by the HOME Program federal funds. Per Habitat for
Humanity, Federal relocation requirements stipulate that the maximum relocation
assistance for businesses is $53,200 plus three months of rent payments, if required.
As such, Habitat for Humanity estimates the total relocation assistance at $213,000.
Once the three religious organizations vacate the existing structures, Habitat for
Humanity will pay Mr. Taormina the rent paid by the vacating occupants and begin the
process to demolish the buildings.
From an initial review of the project by the City’s Planning and Building Agency, the
timeline for processing the application and obtaining necessary approvals is expected to
take approximately seven (7) to 12 months. The property is currently zoned as LR-7
(Low Density Residential, seven (7) units per acre). To the extent required under state
housing laws, Habitat for Humanity may need to request a General Plan Amendment
and zone change. Habitat for Humanity may also be required to comply with the City’s
Sunshine Ordinance, which includes holding two community meetings. A California
Environmental Quality Act review may be required and a Density Bonus Agreement
may also be necessary, depending on the concessions and waivers needed for the
development of the project.

The pre-commitment letter shall not obligate the City or any department thereof to
approve any application or request for, or take any other action in connection with, any
planning approval, permit, or other action necessary for the construction, rehabilitation,
installation, or operation of the project. The pre-commitment letter will be conditional on
Habitat for Humanity obtaining approval of all required entitlements and discretionary
actions to allow the construction of 40 affordable ownership units to be located at 621
W. Alton Avenue.
In compliance with the City’s Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures, KMA
completed a preliminary financial gap analysis by reviewing the developer’s estimates
and projections of sales prices, expenses, reserves, and development costs; and
confirming the project’s underwriting and other requirements pertinent to the funding
sources (Exhibit 3). Following this analysis and completion of the procurement process,
KMA confirmed the preliminary financial gap and the Review Panel’s recommendation
to award $9,807,571 in HOME Program funds. The project’s economics are described
in detail in KMA’s analysis attached as Exhibit 3 to this report.
Project Description - 425 E. Wellington Avenue
The second pre-commitment letter for 425 E. Wellington Avenue, Santa Ana, CA (APN
398-028-12) between the City and Habitat for Humanity provides an enforceable
funding commitment of up to $920,000 in Inclusionary Housing Funds for eligible
homebuyers to purchase nine (9) existing rental units that will be converted into
affordable ownership condominium units including: (1) an allocation of $720,000 to the
City's Down Payment Assistance Program, and (2) a conditional award up to $200,000
for eligible relocation costs (Exhibit 4). The letter is referred to as a pre-commitment
because, similar to the HOME Program, the City has requirements that must be met
before a full commitment can be issued in the form of a Memorandum of Understanding.
Specifically, this project involves the conversion of an existing nine-unit apartment
building into condominiums, which will be made available for homeownership to Low
and Moderate-Income households earning less than 120% of the AMI. The existing
building on the property was rehabilitated in May 2024 and includes one two-bedroom
unit and eight one-bedroom units, each with a single bathroom. Unit sizes range from
420 to 846 square feet and are move-in ready. The building recently underwent over $1
million in renovations, which included new flooring, electrical upgrades (new outlets and
fixtures), updated kitchen cabinets, and complete bathroom remodels. Doors, windows,
shutters, garage doors, stairways, and railings were restored or replaced as needed to
meet code compliance.
Current residents of the property with household incomes of less than 120% AMI and
that qualify to purchase a unit within the Property will be given the right of first refusal to
purchase a unit at an affordable purchase price (eight of the nine units are currently
occupied). KMA estimates the moderate income affordable sales prices at $310,400 for
the eight (8) one-bedroom units and $350,500 for the one (1) two-bedroom unit. The
allocation of $720,000 to the City’s Down Payment Assistance Program will be available
for down payment assistance to individual households to purchase a unit, structured as

a silent mortgage based on homebuyer eligibility. Homebuyers must meet the eligibility
requirements for Habitat for Humanity’s Affordable Homeownership Program with a
residency preference for local workers and residents of Santa Ana in accordance with
Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500. The conditional award of up to $200,000 for
eligible relocation costs will be available upon a determination by the City that the
Project is subject to relocation benefits under California Government Code §§7260 or
66300.6. The specific amounts utilized for relocation benefits will be based on actual
amounts determined immediately prior to the relocation of existing tenants.
The City and Habitat for Humanity will enter into a Memorandum of Understanding
("MOU") that sets forth the terms under which the City will provide the homebuyer Down
Payment Assistance and conditional relocation award. The MOU will specify that the
project is not undertaken by the City and is not in furtherance of a City program. Rather,
the MOU is a response to Habitat for Humanity’s request for financial assistance to
enhance affordability for qualified homebuyers by providing homebuyer Down Payment
Assistance through an existing City program. The MOU will require that Habitat for
Humanity execute an affordable housing covenant to offer the nine (9) affordable units
to households with income that does not exceed the limits for Low and Moderate-
Income Households for an affordable sales price that complies with the limits for an
"affordable housing cost," as defined in California Health and Safety Code §50052.5.
The affordable housing covenant will run with the land for a period of forty-five (45)
years.
This second pre-commitment letter shall not obligate the City or any department thereof
to approve any application or request for, or take any other action in connection with,
any planning approval, permit, or other action necessary for the construction,
rehabilitation, installation, or operation of the project. The pre-commitment letter will also
be conditional on Habitat for Humanity obtaining approval of all required entitlements
and discretionary actions to allow the construction, improvement, conversion, and/or
development of nine (9) affordable ownership units at 425 E. Wellington Avenue.
In compliance with the City’s Affordable Housing Funds Policies and Procedures, KMA
completed a second preliminary financial gap analysis for this project (Exhibit 5).
Following this analysis and completion of the procurement process, KMA confirmed the
preliminary financial gap and need for the Review Panel’s recommendation to award up
to $920,000 in Inclusionary Housing Funds. This second project’s economics are
described in detail in KMA’s analysis attached as Exhibit 5 to this report.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

Re: Pre-Commitment Letter
621 W. Alton Ave.
Santa Ana, CA 92707
Dear Mr. Valentine,
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, Inc. (referred to as the “Developer”), requested
financial assistance in connection with the proposed development of 40 affordable
ownership units (“Project”). The Property is located at 621 W est Alton Avenue, Santa
Ana, CA, 92707 (APN 410-351-02) (“Property”).
The Developer proposes to demolish the existing structures on the Property to build 40
new homes for affordable ownership. The Project will require relocation of the existing
religious organizations currently occupying and renting the existing structures on the
Property in compliance with the federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act, and all state and local relocation requirements. The Project will
include 30 three-bedroom, one and a half -bath homes for Low-Income households
earning up to 80% of the Orange County Area Median Income (“AMI”) ("Low-Income
Households") and 10 three-bedroom, one and a half-bath homes for Moderate-Income
households earning up to 120% AMI ("Moderate-Income Households"). Each unit will
have a two-story duplex configuration and will be approximately 1,070 square feet. At
least two of the homes will be Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) accessible and
compliant. There will be two parking spaces adjacent and dedicated to each home (one
enclosed and one surface) and 16 additional surface parking stalls, including two ADA -
accessible stalls. Households must also meet the eligibility requirements for the
Developer’s Affordable Homeownership Program with a residency preference for local
EXHIBIT 2

- 2 -
workers and residents of Santa Ana in accordance with Santa Ana Municipal Code
Section 8-3500. Construction will comply with all City of Santa Ana, County, and State
building codes.
The City of Santa Ana (“City”) has reviewed the Developer's request for financial
assistance, and at the City Council meeting on March 4, 2025, the City Council authorized
and approved the issuance of this pre-commitment letter evidencing the preliminary
award of $9,807,571.00 in HOME Investment Partnerships (“HOME”) Program Funds
consisting of:
- A Conditional Grant in the maximum amount of $9,807,571.00 from the HOME
Program Fund held by the City for the Project (“Conditional HOME Grant”).
This letter shall evidence the City’s pre-commitment of the Conditional HOME Grant to
the Developer for the Project subject to the conditions described below.
Conditional HOME Grant:
The amount of the proposed Conditional HOME Grant has been determined based upon
the City’s review of the Developer's request for the receipt of the Conditional HOME Grant
and the development proforma for the Project submitted by the Developer to the City
(“Proforma”). The City Manager or his/her designee has the authority to approve revised
development proformas for the Project; provided, however, that the Conditional HOME
Grant is not increased or extended.
The Conditional HOME Grant shall be conditioned on and include the following terms:
The Conditional HOME Grant shall be for a maximum principal amount of
$9,807,571.00, or as much thereof, as is disbursed for hard and soft costs in
constructing the Project, provided from the HOME Program Fund. The terms and
conditions of the Conditional HOME Grant shall be incorporated into a written
agreement ("Grant Agreement"), which shall comply with all provisions and
requirements of this Pre-Commitment Letter, and any additional terms or
conditions that City determines are reasonably necessary to implement the Project
and ensure compliance with federal, state and local law.
The disbursement of the Conditional HOME Grant shall be made according to a
schedule of disbursements based on written milestones set forth in the Grant
Agreement.
The Grant Agreement shall require a performance deed of trust in favor of the City
("Performance Deed of Trust") securing the obligations of the Grant Agreement
against the Property; the City may, in its sole and absolute discretion, approve
alternative security, such as a leasehold deed of trust or a security interest in a
construction funding account, subject to terms and conditions agreeable to the City
and compliant with the HOME Program. The Performance Deed of Trust (or
EXHIBIT 2
City Council 8 – 9 3//2025
- 3 -
alternative security) would terminate and, if applicable, be subject to re-
conveyance based upon terms in the Grant Agreement. .
The Grant Agreement shall require that the owner of the Property execute a
regulatory agreement with a declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions
("Regulatory Agreement") to develop the Property with 40 affordable units, as
described herein, on terms agreeable to the City. The Regulatory Agreement shall
run with the land for the duration of the affordability covenants.
Developer will comply with the attached Schedule of Performance. The Schedule
of Performance is designed to ensure timely progress and adherence to HOME
Program Fund expenditure deadlines, as mandated by federal funding regulations.
Provided the Developer constructs the Project according to the Scope of Work and
Schedule of Performance, the Developer will be subject to no repayment
obligation. Upon the initial sale of all units to eligible households pursuant to the
Regulatory Agreement, the Grant Agreement shall automatically terminate. In the
event the Project is not constructed in compliance with the Scope of Work and
Schedule of Performance, the City may terminate the Grant Agreement and may
seek repayment of Grant monies not expended on development and construction
of the Project pursuant to the default remedy provisions of the Grant Agreement.
The 40 affordable ownership units at the Project shall and will be restricted to an
affordable home purchase price, which will require that 30 homes be sold to
qualified Low-Income Households who earn up to 80% of the Orange County AMI
and 10 homes be sold to qualified Moderate-Income Households who earn up to
120% of the Orange County AMI, as set by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (“HUD”). Future sales of such single-family homes will be restricted
to income-qualified households for a period of at least forty-five (45) years, unless
City and Developer agree upon an alternative resale model allowing homeowners
to generate additional equity.
City and Developer shall evaluate and negotiate the restrictions on resale of the
individual single-family homes to determine the benefit of generating additional
equity for each household. Any resale restrictions shall comply with requirements
of federal, state or local law.
Developer will have a local preference for families who live or work in the City of
Santa Ana in the selection of Low- and Moderate-Income Households in
compliance with Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500.
Developer will comply with the federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real
Property Acquisition Policies Act (“URA”) and any other applicable federal, state,
or local laws governing relocation or termination of tenancy (collectively,
"Relocation Laws"). Developer shall provide the existing tenants on the Project
EXHIBIT 2
City Council 8 – 0 3//2025
- 4 -
Site with relocation assistance and any other benefits required by Relocation Laws.
This will include the review and approval by the City of a URA Relocation Plan.
Developer shall assume any and all responsibility and be solely responsible for
compliance with all tenant and eviction protections, including but not limited to
protections under the California Tenant Protection Act (Civil Code § 1946.2), the
Ellis Act (Government Code § 7060 et seq.), and Santa Ana's Rent Stabilization
and Just Cause Eviction Ordinance (Article XIX of Chapter 8 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code) (collectively, "Eviction Protections"). To the extent applicable,
Developer shall comply with and be responsible for all costs of compliance with all
relevant Eviction Protections.
Developer will ensure that each “Program Participant” (used interchangeably with
“Homebuyer”) means the selected eligible person or family who will be purchasing
a house. Each Program Participant will provide sweat equity or any other
administrative work as may be designated by Developer. Each Program
Participant is to be selected by the Developer as more fully set forth in its
Affordable Home Ownership Program. The City shall have the right to review and
approve the sweat equity requirements and all other criteria applied through the
Affordable Home Ownership Program.
Developer’s Project to develop affordable ownership opportunities with financial
support from the City is subject to Chapter 11B of the California Building Code as
public housing. Accordingly, Developer’s Project must comply with California
Building Code section 11B-233.3. Specifically, Developer’s Project must comply
with the requirements for mobility features: “In facilities with residential dwelling
units, at least 5 percent, but no fewer than one unit, of the total number of
residential dwelling units shall provide mobility features.” Developer’s Project must
also comply with the requirements for communication features: “In public housing
facilities with residential dwelling units, at least 2 percent, but no f ewer than one
unit, of the total number of residential dwelling units shall provide communication
features complying with Section 11B-809.5.” Developer’s Project must also
comply with the requirements for adaptable features: “In facilities with residential
dwelling units, adaptable residential dwelling units complying with Sections 11B -
809.6 through 11B-809.12 shall be provided as required by Sections 11B -
233.3.1.2.1 through 11B-233.3.1.2.6. Adaptable residential dwelling units shall be
on an accessible route as required by Section 11B-206.” Developer shall comply
with these public housing requirements for their Project in the California Building
Code by constructing two units in the Project that includes the required mobility,
communication, and adaptable features.
Developer will comply with the requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act, as applicable
due to the use of HOME federal funds, and any other applicable labor requirements
arising from the receipt of the Conditional HOME Grant. This includes ensuring
that all laborers and mechanics employed on the Project are paid wages at rates

a local preference for families who live or work in the City of Santa Ana , in
each case, at an Affordable Housing Cost, subject to an alternative resales
model agreed upon by City and Developer; provided, however, that the
resale restrictions must comply with the HOME Program requirements;
o Notice of Affordability Restrictions on Transfer of Property – The Notice of
Affordability Restrictions on Transfer of Property shall be for a term of at
least forty-five (45) years;

the affordable sales price of the affordable unit and the fair market value of
such unit as if no restriction were placed thereon, as de termined by an
appraisal, or other amount required by the HOME Program, which is
reasonably acceptable to the City, and repayable upon the affordability term
or earlier sale of the affordable unit for fair market value, subject to City's
approval;
o Deed of Trust – The Homebuyer shall sign a deed of trust ("City Deed of
Trust") that secures the City Promissory Note; and,
o Homebuyer Loan Agreement – The loan agreement shall reflect the
obligations for the City Promissory Note and the City Deed of Trust .

MEMORANDUM
At your request, Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA) prepared a preliminary financial
gap analysis for the project to be developed at 621 West Alton Avenue (Site) by Habitat
for Humanity of Orange County (Habitat). Habitat is currently in discussions with the
property owner to purchase the Site.
Habitat proposes to demolish the existing structures on the Site, and construct 40 for-
sale units to be sold to low and moderate income households (Project). Habitat is
requesting $9.81 million in financial assistance from the City of Santa Ana (City). The
purpose of the KMA analysis is to evaluate Habitat’s financial assistance request.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The results of the KMA financial gap analysis are compared to Habitat’s financial proposal
in the following table:
To: Judson Brown, Housing Division Manager
City of Santa Ana
From: Tim Bretz
Date: December 10, 2024
Subject: Habitat Alton Avenue – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis

19090.018.038
KMA Habitat Difference
Total Development Costs $27,281,000 $27,247,000 $34,000
(Less) Total Available Revenue (17,438,000) (17,439,000) (1,000)
Estimated Financial Gap $9,843,000 $9,808,000 $35,000
As shown in the preceding table, KMA estimates the Project’s financial gap at $9.84 million.
Comparatively, Habitat is requesting $9.81 million in financial assistance from the City. This
equates to a $35,000 or less than 1% differential. As such, it can be concluded that the
proposed City’s financial assistance is warranted by the Project’s economics.
The City proposes to utilize HOME Program (HOME) funds that are allocated to the City by the
United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Based on a preliminary
HOME unit subsidy estimate, the Project will need to designate at least 30 units as HOME units.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed scope of development can be described as follows:
1. The Site area totals approximately 87,110 square feet, or approximately 2.0 acres of
land area.
2. The Site consists of multiple buildings that are used for religious entities. The buildings
will be demolished in order to undertake the Project.
3. The Project’s unit mix can be summarized as follows:
a. The Project will include 40 for-sale units, in 20 duplex buildings, which equates to
a density of 20 units per acre.
b. Each of the units will include three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms.
c. The units will consist of approximately 1,070 square feet of gross building area
(GBA).
d. The Project’s total GBA is estimated at 42,800 square feet.

4. The Project will include 96 parking spaces consisting of the following:
a. Each unit incorporates an attached garage consisting of one parking space plus
an additional surface parking space adjacent to each unit.
b. Sixteen (16) additional surface parking spaces will be provided, including two
accessible stalls.
5. The Project’s affordability mix will consist of the following:
a. Thirty (30) units will be designated as HOME units and restricted to Low Income
households; and
b. The remaining ten (10) units will be restricted to Moderate Income households.
FINANCIAL GAP ANALYSIS
KMA prepared a pro forma analysis to estimate the Project’s financial gap. The analysis is
located at the end of this memorandum, and is organized as follows:

ESTIMATED DEVELOPMENT COSTS (TABLE 1)
KMA reviewed Habitat’s December 2024 pro forma, and then independently prepared a pro
forma analysis for the Project. The resulting development costs are estimated as follows:
Property Assemblage Costs
The property assemblage costs are estimated at $4.93 million as follows:

19090.018.038
PROPERTY ACQUISITION COSTS
Based on information provided by Habitat, Habitat is proposing to purchase the Site for $4.25
million, or $49 per square foot of land area. Habitat did not provide an appraisal and/or
purchase and sale agreement to confirm the purchase price.
RELOCATION COSTS
The property consists of multiple buildings that are leased to three tenants. Per Habitat, Federal
relocation requirements stipulate that the maximum relocation assistance for businesses is
$53,200 plus three months of rent payments, if required. As such, Habitat estimates the total
relocation assistance at $213,000. However, Habitat did not provide a relocation plan for
review. The City should review the relocation plan prior to disbursement of any financial
assistance.
LOST RENT TO SELLER
The Seller has agreed to hold the property during the development period and complete the
purchase transaction upon completion of construction. As such, the Seller will be holding the
property for the estimated development period of approximately 24 months prior to receiving
the agreed-upon purchase price.
To account for this holding period, Habitat is proposing to compensate the Seller for the loss of
rent payments during the 24-month development period. Habitat estimates the lost rent
payments to be made to the Seller at $386,000.
CLOSING COSTS
Habitat estimates the closing costs at 2% of the purchase price, or $85,000.
Direct Costs
The direct costs assume that the Project will be subject to Federal Davis Bacon prevailing wage
requirements. In addition, the Project is subject to the provisions of the Build America Buy
America Act (BABA). The direct costs can be summarized as follows:
1. Habitat estimates the site improvement costs at $4.0 million, or $46 per square foot of
land area. The site improvement budget includes costs for demolition, grading, sewer

system, utility connections, paving, landscaping, open space areas and street
improvements.
2. The building costs are estimated at $10.70 million, or approximately $267,500 per unit.
3. The general conditions are estimated at 2.5% of construction costs, or $367,000.
4. Habitat will charge for the costs to supervise the construction of the Project. Habitat set
the supervision costs at $320,000, which is based on $12,800 per month for 25 months.
5. A direct cost contingency allowance equal to 10% of other direct costs is provided.
KMA estimates the total direct costs at $16.89 million, which equates to approximately
$422,200 per unit.
Indirect Costs
KMA utilized the following assumptions in estimating the indirect costs:
1. The architecture, engineering and consulting costs are estimated at 6% of direct costs,
or $1.01 million.
2. Habitat estimates the public permits and fees costs at $45,700 per unit, or $1.83 million.
City staff should verify the accuracy of this estimate.
3. The taxes, insurance, legal and accounting costs are estimated at 3% of direct costs, or
$507,000.
4. The Developer Fee is set at $844,000 which is based on the following:
a. Management and Overhead costs are set at $444,000 based on:
i. Project Management: $3,500 per month for 24 months; and
ii. Administration: $10,000 per month for 36 months.
b. Habitat will charge the Project to provide homeownership services to potential
affordable homebuyers. Habitat set this fee at $10,000 per unit.
5. An indirect cost contingency allowance equal to 10% of other indirect costs is provided.

19090.018.038
KMA estimates the total indirect costs at $4.61 million.
Financing Costs
1. The interest costs to be incurred during the construction period are estimated at
$489,000. This cost estimate is based on the following:
a. KMA assumes that Habitat will obtain a construction loan from a third party
lender for the Project. KMA estimates the construction loan amount at $7.52
million, which is calculated based on the total development costs less the
purchase price, Habitat fundraising assistance, Developer Fee, homebuyer
closing costs, HOA reserves and warranty costs.
b. Habitat assumes the construction loan will carry the following terms:
i. A 6.5% interest rate;
ii. A 24-month construction period; and
iii. A 50% average outstanding balance.
2. The financing fees for the construction loan are estimated at 1.0 point, or $75,000.
3. The closing costs related to the sale of each affordable unit are set at $3,000 per unit, or
$120,000.
4. Habitat proposes to fund a $24,000 reserve for the Homeowners Association.
5. The warranty costs are estimated at $140,000, which equates to $3,500 per unit.
KMA estimates the total financing costs at $848,000.
TOTAL DEVELOPMENT COSTS
As shown in Table 1, KMA estimates the total development costs at $27.28 million. In
comparison, Habitat estimates the total development costs at $27.25 million. This represents a
$34,000 differential, which equates to less than 1% of the total development costs.

19090.018.038
It is important to note that the site plan and development scope have not been finalized. Given
the preliminary nature of Habitat’s proposal, this analysis will need to be revised if the scope of
development changes materially.
Estimated Available Revenue
KMA estimates the revenue available to the Project as follows:
LOW INCOME SALES PRICES – HOME UNITS
The Project is required to designate at least 30 units as HOME units. The HOME Program does
not define a methodology for setting the affordable sales prices. As such, KMA estimated the
Low Income sales prices for the HOME units as follows:
1. The household income used in the calculations is based on the Low Income limits
published by HUD. KMA assumes the household size is estimated at one plus the
number of bedrooms (four persons for a three-bedroom unit).
2. Since the Project consists of more than four units, the Project is required to have an
HOA. Habitat estimates the annual HOA dues at $400 per unit per month.
3. Habitat estimates the homeowner’s insurance cost at 0.75% of the affordable sales
price, or approximately $2,250 per year.
4. The annual utilities are based on the utility allowances published by the Santa Ana
Housing Authority (SAHA) as of October 1, 2024. KMA assumes the homeowners will pay
for: electric cooking, electric heating, electric water heating, basic electricity, air
conditioning, water, sewer and trash.
5. Habitat estimates the property tax cost based on 1.25% of the estimated affordable
sales price.
6. The mortgage interest rate is set at 7.0%. The mortgage is assumed to be fully
amortizing over 30 years and provided by a conventional lender.
7. The homebuyer downpayment is set at 5% of the affordable sales price.
Based on the assumptions outlined above, KMA estimates the Low Income Affordable Sales
Prices for the HOME units at $300,200.

Habitat Alton – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 8
2412001v2.SA.TRB
19090.018.038
MODERATE INCOME SALES PRICES
The City is only providing HOME funds to the Project. The $9.81 million in proposed HOME
assistance requires at least 30 Low Income units. Habitat proposes to restrict the remaining ten
units to moderate income households. The City is amenable to Habitat establishing the
affordable sales prices for the Moderate Income units. Habitat is currently estimating the
moderate income sales prices at $389,500.
AFFORDABLE SALES PRICE REVENUE
KMA estimates that the 30 Low Income units will generate $9.01 million in affordable sales
revenue. Based on Habitat’s proposed moderate income sales prices, the 10 Moderate Income
units will generate $3.90 million in affordable sales revenue. As such, the total affordable sales
revenue is estimated at $12.90 million.
However, it is important to note that the affordable sales prices will ultimately be determined
immediately prior to the sale of each unit. This analysis may need to be revised if the affordable
sales prices differ from the sales prices utilized in this analysis.
ADDITIONAL REVENUE
Habitat proposes to utilize fundraising contributions to off-set a portion of the construction
costs. As such, Habitat estimates the financial assistance that they can provide to the Project at
$4.54 million, or $113,400 per unit.
ESTIMATED AVAILABLE REVENUE
The Project’s estimated total available revenue is equal to the sum of the Affordable Sales Price
revenue and the Project’s additional revenue. KMA estimates the total available revenue as
follows:
Affordable Sales Price Revenue $12,901,000
Habitat Financial Assistance $4,537,000
Estimated Available Revenue $17,438,000

2412001v2.SA.TRB
19090.018.038
Financial Gap Calculation
The financial gap is estimated by deducting the Project’s available revenue from the Project’s
total development costs. Based on the preceding analysis, KMA estimates the Project’s financial
gap as follows:
KMA
Total Development Costs $27,281,000
(Less) Total Available Revenue (17,438,000)
Estimated Financial Gap $9,843,000
Per Unit $246,100
As shown in the preceding table, KMA estimates the Project’s financial gap at $9.84 million.
Comparatively, Habitat is requesting $9.81 million in financial assistance from the City. Since
this amount is less that the financial gap identified by KMA, it can be concluded that the
proposed City financial assistance is warranted by the project economics.
The City will need to confirm that Habitat has secured all necessary funding sources before
formally committing HOME funds to the Project.
SILENT SECOND MORTGAGE REVENUE CALCULATION (TABLE 4)
As a basic premise it must be assumed that the total of the liens accepted by a homebuyer
cannot exceed the unrestricted market value of the home. Furthermore, based on previous City
homeownership projects, the City will record a second trust deed equal to the difference
between the Affordable Sales Price and the estimated market value of the home.
KMA assumes that the City’s second trust deed will be structured as a deferred payment loan
which are commonly known as silent second mortgages. These loans typically become due and
payable when the home is resold to a non-affordable homebuyer. KMA assumes that the City’s
silent second trust deed will fall second in the lien hierarchy behind the conventional first trust
deed mortgage.
The calculations used to estimate the supportable silent mortgages are presented in the
following sections of this analysis.

2412001v2.SA.TRB
19090.018.038
Market Rate Sales Prices
Habitat provided sales comparables for the Project’s nearby market area for the purpose of
estimating the current silent second mortgage amount. Based on these comparables, KMA
estimates the market rate sales price for an attached three-bedroom unit at $750,000.
In addition, the HOME Program establishes a maximum sales price for the HOME units.
Ultimately, the market rate sales price will be set at the lesser of the appraised fair market
value of the unit or the maximum HOME sales price in effect at the time of sale.
Available Silent Second Mortgage Revenue
Based on the estimated market rate sales prices, the available silent second mortgage revenue
is estimated at as follows:
Three-Bedroom Units
Low Income
Units
Moderate
Income Units
Market Rate Sales Price $750,000 $750,000
(Less) Affordable Sales Price (300,200) (389,500)
Silent Second Mortgage Amounts (Per Unit) $449,800 $360,500
It is important to note that this calculation will need to be revisited once sales of the units
commence. At that point, the appraised market values of the homes, maximum HOME sales
prices, and the defined Affordable Sales Prices will be utilized to determine the silent second
mortgage amounts.
PRELIMINARY HOME COST ALLOCATION (TABLE 5)
KMA completed a preliminary HOME cost allocation for the Project. The HOME cost allocation
analysis is based in part on the 2024 maximum HOME subsidy limits of $327,293 for three-
bedroom units. The provision of $9.81 million in HOME funds to the Project requires that at
least 30 units be designated as HOME units. All of the HOME units will be restricted to Low
Income households.

CONCLUSIONS / RECOMMENDATIONS
The following summarizes the conclusions of the KMA analysis:
1. Based on currently available information, KMA estimates the Project’s financial gap at
$9.84 million. In comparison, the Developer is requesting $9.81 million in financial
assistance from the City. As such, the Developer’s request is supported by the Project
economics.
2. Based on the preliminary HOME Cost Allocation Analysis, the City must designate at
least 30 units in the Project as HOME units.
3. It is important to note that the City cannot formally commit HOME funds to the Project
until after all of the other financing sources have received formal commitments. At that
time, the City must prepare a HOME Subsidy Layering Review in order to formally
commit HOME funds to the Project.
4. Given the preliminary nature of the proposal, if the scope of development or financing
assumptions change, the KMA analysis may need to be updated accordingly.
5. The affordable sales prices cannot be finalized until the Project commences sales
activities. It is likely that the actual affordable sales prices will differ from the amounts
estimated in this analysis.
6. KMA recommends that the City retain 10% of the City’s financial assistance amount (or
$981,800) until after the completion of construction. If the assumptions utilized in this
analysis change materially, the financial gap analysis should be re-evaluated prior to the
release of that amount to ensure that the $981,800 is still warranted by the Project.
7. The City’s HOME funds have various expenditure deadlines. KMA recommends that the
City include a schedule of performance in the preliminary commitment documentation
to ensure that the Project moves forward in time to meet the HOME fund expenditure
deadlines.

Re: Pre-Commitment Letter
425 E. Wellington Ave.
Santa Ana, CA 92701
Dear Mr. Valentine,
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, Inc. (referred to as the “Developer”), requested
financial assistance for eligible homebuyers to purchase nine (9) existing rental units
that will be converted into affordable ownership condominium units (“Project”). The
Project would be located at 425 East Wellington Avenue, Santa Ana, CA, 92701 (APN
398-028-12) (“Property”).
The Project involves the conversion of an existing nine -unit apartment building into
condominiums, which will be made available for homeownership to Low and Moderate-
Income households earning less than 120% of the Area Median Income (“AMI”) ("Low
and Moderate-Income Households"). The existing building on the Property was
rehabilitated in May 2024 and includes one two-bedroom unit and eight one-bedroom
units, each with a single bathroom. All units are equipped with essential appliances:
stoves, refrigerators and stacked washer/dryer units in the laundry space. Unit sizes
range from 420 to 846 square feet. The building recently underwent over $1 million in
renovations, which included new flooring, electrical upgrades (new outlets and fixtures),
updated kitchen cabinets, and complete bathroom remodels. Doors, windows, shutters,
garage doors, stairways, and railings were restored or replaced as needed to meet code
compliance.
EXHIBIT 4
City Council 1 – 202
The City of Santa Ana (“City”) has reviewed the Developer's request for financial
assistance, and at the City Council meeting on March 4, 2025, the City Council
authorized and approved the issuance of this pre-commitment letter evidencing a
commitment to reserve $920,000.00 (the "City Assistance") in Inclusionary Housing
Funds as follows: (1) an allocation of $720,000 to the City's Down Payment Assistance
Program (the "Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation"), and (2) a conditional
award up to $200,000 for eligible relocation costs (the "Conditional Relocation
Allocation"). The City Assistance will be available to Low and Moderate -Income
households. Current residents of the Property with household incomes of less than
120% AMI and that qualify to purchase a unit within the Property will be given the right
of first refusal to purchase a unit. The Down Payment Assistance Allocation shall be
available for down payment assistance to individual households, structured as a silent
mortgage based on homebuyer eligibility (the "Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance").
Homebuyers must meet the eligibility requirements for the Developer’s Affordable
Homeownership Program with a residency preference for local workers and residents of
Santa Ana in accordance with Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500. Conversion
and construction will comply with all City of Santa Ana, County, and State building
codes. The Conditional Relocation Allocation will be available upon a determination by
the City that the Project is subject to relocation benefits under California Government
Code §§ 7260 or 66300.6.
This letter shall evidence the City’s pre-commitment of the City Assistance to the
Developer for the Project subject to the conditions described below.
City Assistance:
The amount of the proposed City Assistance has been determined based upon the
City’s review of the Developer's request for the receipt of the City Assistance targeting
Low and Moderate Income Households.
The City Assistance shall be conditioned on and include the following terms:
City and Developer shall enter into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU")
that sets forth terms under which the City shall provide the Homebuyer Down
Payment Assistance and Conditional Relocation Allocation.
The Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance shall be available for Low and
Moderate Income Households with income that does not exceed 120% of the
Orange County AMI as set by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (“HUD”).
The MOU may, but is not required to, include provisions that govern if and how
the City Assistance may be used in the event the total authorized Homebuyer
Down Payment Assistance loans are less than the amount of the award in this
pre-commitment ($720,000.00). The MOU may make these provisions subject to
approval from the City Manager of an amended MOU.
EXHIBIT 4
City Council 1 – 202
The MOU shall specify that the Project is not undertaken by the City and is not in
furtherance of a City program. Rather, the MOU is a response to Developer's
request for financial assistance to enhance affordability for qualified homebuyers
by providing Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance through an existing City
program.
The MOU shall require that Developer execute an affordable housing covenant
("Affordable Housing Covenant") to offer the nine (9) affordable units to
households with income that does not exceed the limits for Low and Moderate -
Income Households for an affordable sales price that complies with the limits for
an "affordable housing cost," as defined in California Health and Safety Code §
50052.5. In addition to the available Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance, the
existing residents shall have a right of first refusal, which shall provide those
households with the right to purchase an affordable unit. The Affordable Housing
Covenant shall run with the land for a period of forty-five (45) years.
Developer shall assume any and all responsibility and be solely responsible for
determining whether the project must comply with the relocation requirements
under California Government Code § 7260 et seq. and implementing regulations
and any other applicable federal, state, or local laws governing relocation of
residential tenants, including but not limited to Division 2 of Article IX of Chapter
34 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (§ 34-331 et seq.) (collectively, "Relocation
Laws"). To the extent applicable, Developer shall comply with and be responsible
for all costs of compliance with relevant Relocation Laws.
Developer shall assume any and all responsibility and be solely responsible for
compliance with all tenant and eviction protections, including but not limited to
protections under the California Tenant Protection Act (Civil Code § 1946.2), the
Ellis Act (Government Code § 7060 et seq.), Santa Ana's Rent Stabilization and
Just Cause Eviction Ordinance (Article XIX of Chapter 8 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code) (collectively, "Eviction Protections"). To the extent applicable,
Developer shall comply with and be responsible for all costs of compliance with
all relevant Eviction Protections.
Because the MOU will provide City Assistance as part of Homebuyer Down
Payment Assistance for qualified homebuyers, the repayment obligation is based
on the City's existing Down Payment Assistance Program. City shall not be
obligated to make any payments to qualified homebuyers under the MOU unless
and until Developer meets all conditions provided for in the MOU and qualified
Low and Moderate-Income Households comply with all requirements to receive
the Homebuyer Down Payment Assistance.
The nine (9) affordable ownership units at the Project shall be restricted by an
Affordable Housing Covenant to an affordable home purchase price, which will
require that the nine (9) homes be sold to qualified Low and Moderate-Income
Households. Future sales of such single-family homes will be restricted to
qualified Low and Moderate-Income Households for a period of at least forty-five
(45) years.
EXHIBIT 4
City Council 18 – 37 3/4/2025
Developer will have a local preference for families who live or work in the City of
Santa Ana in the selection of qualified Low and Moderate-Income Households in
compliance with Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 8-3500. The local
preference will be applied after all existing residents have the opportunity to
exercise the right of first refusal.
Developer will ensure that each “Program Participant” (used interchangeably
with “Homebuyer”) means the selected eligible person or family who will be
purchasing a house. Each Program Participant will provide voluntary work as
sweat equity or any other administrative work as may be designated by the
Developer. Each Program Participant is to be selected by the Developer as more
fully set forth in its Affordable Homeownership Program. The City shall have the
right to review and approve the sweat equity requirements and related criteria
(including a residency preference for Santa Ana residents or workers) applied
through the Affordable Homeownership Program.
Developer will comply with the City’s Community Workforce Agreement and
union labor will be used for all necessary upgrades when volunteer labo r is not
used.
Developer will provide existing tenants with the right of first refusal to purchase a
unit, provided they meet the eligibility requirements for Habitat for Humanity’s
Affordable Homeownership Program and the City of Santa Ana’s Down Payment
Assistance Program; provided, however, Developer shall at all times comply with
the Relocation Laws. If an eligible and qualified household exercises the right of
first refusal, Developer shall sell the Affordable Unit to that household.
Developer shall comply with all requirements of the California Building Code. If
the Project requires a building permit that is subject to Chapter 11B of the
California Building Code, including but not limited to any requirements for "public
housing" under Section 11B-233.3, then Developer shall comply with applicable
requirements of the California Building Code.
At the close of escrow for the purchase of each affordable unit, the City will
require each household purchasing such unit to execute all documents and
instruments required by the City's Down Payment Assistance Program.
The MOU shall set forth the terms and conditions for disbursement of the
Conditional Relocation Allocation. All disbursements of the Conditional
Relocation Allocation shall be subject to compliance with the Relocation Laws,
and disbursed only on a reimbursement basis after the City has been provided
reasonable documentation of compliance with the Relocation Laws.
General Provisions:
The City's obligation to provide the City Assistance to the Project is subject to each of
the following conditions:

MEMORANDUM
At your request, Keyser Marston Associates, Inc. (KMA) prepared a preliminary financial
gap analysis for the project proposed to be developed at 425 East Wellington Avenue
(Site) by Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (Habitat). Habitat purchased the Site in
November 2024.
The Site includes an existing 9-unit apartment building. Habitat proposes to convert the
existing rental units into for-sale condominium units which will be sold to Low or
Moderate Income households (Project). Habitat is requesting up to $920,000 in financial
assistance from the City of Santa Ana (City). The City’s financial assistance package is
proposed to be structured as follows:
1.The City proposes to utilize up to $720,000 in Inclusionary Housing (Inclusionary)
Funds to provide down payment assistance to eligible homebuyers (Down Payment
Assistance Program Allocation).
2.The City may provide up to $200,000 in Inclusionary Funds to provide relocation
assistance to existing apartment tenants that do not purchase an affordable unit at the
property (Conditional Relocation Allocation).

The purpose of the KMA analysis is to evaluate Habitat’s financial assistance request.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As noted previously, the City’s financial assistance package is proposed to be structured in two
components:
Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation
KMA completed a financial gap analysis to evaluate Habitat’s request for $720,000 in Down
Payment Assistance Program funds. The results of the KMA financial gap analysis are compared
to Habitat’s financial proposal in the following table:
KMA Habitat Difference
Total Development Costs $4,402,000 $4,374,200 $27,800
(Less) Total Available Revenue (3,654,200) (3,654,200) (-0-)
Estimated Financial Gap $747,800 $720,000 $27,800
As shown in the preceding table, KMA estimates the Project’s financial gap at $747,800.
Comparatively, Habitat is requesting $720,000 in Down Payment Assistance Program funds
from the City. This represents a $27,800, or approximately 4% differential. Habitat will be
responsible for any unfunded financial gap above the $7200,000 in financial assistance
proposed to be provided by the City. As such, it can be concluded that the City’s proposed
Down Payment Assistance Program funding is warranted by the Project’s economics.
The City proposes to utilize $720,000 in Inclusionary Funds to provide Down Payment
Assistance Program funds to eligible homebuyers. The City Down Payment Assistance Program
Allocation is based on providing up to $80,000 per unit in down payment assistance to each
eligible Moderate or Low Income homebuyer.
Conditional Relocation Allocation
The City may utilize up to $200,000 in Inclusionary Funds to provide relocation assistance to
existing apartment tenants that do not purchase an affordable unit at the property (City
Relocation Assistance). The specific amounts utilized for the Conditional Relocation Allocation

will based on actual amounts determined immediately prior to the relocation of existing
tenants.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed scope of development can be described as follows:
1. The Site area totals approximately 9,150 square feet, or approximately 0.21 acres of
land area.
2. The Site consists of one existing apartment building. The apartment units will be
converted to condominium units.
3. The Project’s unit mix can be summarized as follows:
a. The Project will include 9 for-sale units, which equates to a density of 43 units
per acre.
b. The unit mix consists of the following:
i. Eight (8) one-bedroom units consisting of approximately 550 square feet
of living area; and
ii. One (1) two bedroom unit consisting of approximately 850 square feet of
living area.
c. The Project’s total gross building area (GBA) is estimated at 5,266 square feet.
4. Each unit has an existing one-car garage for a total of 9 parking spaces for the Project.
5. The Project’s affordability mix will consist of the following:
a. All nine units will be sold to Low or Moderate Income households. For the
purposes of this financial gap analysis, KMA assumed that all units will be sold to
Moderate Income households.
b. To limit displacement, existing apartment tenants with household incomes of
less than 120% of the Area Median Income (AMI) and that qualify to purchase a
unit will be given the first right to purchase a unit at an affordable sales price.

FINANCIAL GAP ANALYSIS
KMA prepared a pro forma analysis to estimate the Project’s financial gap. The analysis is
located at the end of this memorandum, and is organized as follows:
Table 1: Estimated Development Costs
Table 2: Estimated Available Revenue
Table 3: Estimated Financial Gap
Table 4: Silent Second Mortgage Revenue Calculations
Table 5: Affordable Sales Price Calculation
ESTIMATED DEVELOPMENT COSTS (TABLE 1)
KMA reviewed Habitat’s December 2024 pro forma, and then independently prepared a pro
forma analysis for the Project. The resulting development costs are estimated as follows:
Property Assemblage Costs
The property assemblage costs are estimated at $3.23 million as follows:
PROPERTY ACQUISITION COSTS
Based on information provided by Habitat, Habitat purchased the Site for $3.11 million, or
$345,000 per unit. Habitat provided an appraisal prepared by AEI Consultants on July 26, 2024
that estimated the as-is market value of the property at $2.78 million, or $309,000 per unit.
As such, Habitat purchased the property for $325,000, or approximately 12% more than the
appraised value of the Property.
RELOCATION COSTS
The property is currently utilized as an apartment building that contains existing apartment
tenants. The funding source proposed to be provided by the City does not trigger the Federal
Uniform Relocation Act. To that end, Habitat estimates the relocation costs at $60,000, which is
based on three months of current rent payments.
EXHIBIT 5

Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 5
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
However, Habitat will provide current tenants that earn 120% AMI or less and qualify to
purchase an affordable unit with a Right of First Refusal to purchase a unit at an affordable
sales price.
CLOSING COSTS
Habitat estimates the closing costs at $69,000 or approximately 2% of the purchase price.
Direct Costs
The direct costs assume that the Project will be subject to the City’s Community Workforce
Agreement. The direct costs can be summarized as follows:
1. Habitat estimates the site improvement costs at $30,000, or $3 per square foot of land
area. The site improvement costs include asphalt repaving and trash enclosure
improvements.
2. The building renovation costs are estimated at $76,000, or approximately $8,500 per
unit. The scope of rehabilitation includes new water meters, garage doors, windows,
and additional repairs required by the insurance company.
3. The prevailing wage premium is estimated at 30% of construction costs, or $32,000.
4. The general conditions are estimated at 20% of construction costs, or $28,000.
5. Habitat will not charge for the costs to supervise the construction of the Project.
6. A direct cost contingency allowance equal to 15% of other direct costs is provided.
KMA estimates the total direct costs at $191,000, which equates to approximately $21,200 per
unit.
Indirect Costs
KMA utilized the following assumptions in estimating the indirect costs:
1. The architecture, engineering and consulting costs are estimated at 3% of the property
assemblage and direct costs, or $103,000.
EXHIBIT 5
City Council 18 – 46 3/4/2025
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 6
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
2. Habitat estimates the public permits and fees costs at $3,800 per unit, or $34,000. City
staff should verify the accuracy of this estimate.
3. The taxes, legal and accounting costs are estimated at 3% of direct costs, or $103,000.
4. Habitat estimates the insurance costs at $27,000 or $3,000 per unit.
5. The Developer Fee is set at $207,000 which is based on the following:
a. Management and Overhead costs are set at $4,000 per month for an 18-month
development period.
b. Habitat will charge the Project to provide homeownership services to potential
affordable homebuyers. Habitat set this fee at $15,000 per unit.
6. An indirect cost contingency allowance equal to 7% of other indirect costs is provided.
KMA estimates the total indirect costs at $507,000.
Financing Costs
1. The interest costs to be incurred during the development period are estimated at
$340,000. This cost estimate is based on the following:
a. Habitat states that a $3.0 million predevelopment/construction loan will be
obtained from a third party lender for the Project.
b. KMA assumes the predevelopment/construction loan will carry the following
terms:
i. A 7.56% interest rate;
ii. An 18-month development period; and
iii. A 100% average outstanding balance.
2. The financing fees for the predevelopment/construction loan are estimated at 1.0 point,
or $30,000.

Habitat Wellington – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 7
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
3. The closing costs related to the sale of each affordable unit are estimated at $3,000 per
unit, or $27,000.
4. Habitat proposes to fund an $8,000 reserve for the Homeowners Association.
5. The warranty costs are estimated at $65,000, which equates to approximately $7,200
per unit.
KMA estimates the total financing costs at $470,000.
TOTAL DEVELOPMENT COSTS
As shown in Table 1, KMA estimates the total development costs at $4.40 million. In
comparison, Habitat estimates the total development costs at $4.37 million. This represents an
approximately $28,000 differential, which equates to less than 1% of the total development
costs.
Estimated Available Revenue
KMA estimates the revenue available to the Project as follows:
MODERATE INCOME SALES PRICES – INCLUSIONARY HOUSING FUNDS
The City will provide Inclusionary Funds to the Project. As such, KMA estimated the affordable
sales as follows:
1. The household income used in the calculations is based on the area median income
published by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)
and adjusted for the number of persons per household (Area Median Income (AMI)).
KMA assumes the household size is estimated at one plus the number of bedrooms
(four persons for a three-bedroom unit).
2. KMA assumes that the qualifying Moderate Income limits are set at 120% of AMI.
3. Since the Project consists of more than four units, the Project is required to have an
HOA. Habitat estimates the annual HOA dues at $400 per unit per month.
4. Habitat estimates the homeowner’s insurance cost at 0.75% of the affordable sales
price.
EXHIBIT 5
City Council 18 – 48 3/4/2025
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 8
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
5. The annual utilities are based on the utility allowances published by the Santa Ana
Housing Authority (SAHA) as of October 1, 2024. KMA assumes the homeowners will pay
for: electric cooking, electric heating, electric water heating, basic electricity, air
conditioning, water, sewer and trash.
6. Habitat estimates the property tax cost based on 1.25% of the estimated affordable
sales price.
7. The mortgage interest rate is set at 7.0%. The mortgage is assumed to be fully
amortizing over 30 years and provided by a conventional lender.
8. The homebuyer down payment is set at 5% of the affordable sales price.
Based on the assumptions outlined above, KMA estimates the Moderate Income affordable
sales prices at $310,400 for the eight (8) one-bedroom units and $350,500 for the one (1) two-
bedroom unit.
AFFORDABLE SALES PRICE REVENUE
KMA estimates that nine Moderate Income units will generate $2.83 million in affordable sales
revenue.
However, it is important to note that the affordable sales prices will ultimately be determined
immediately prior to the sale of each unit. This analysis may need to be revised if the affordable
sales prices differ from the sales prices utilized in this analysis.
ADDITIONAL REVENUE
Rental Income
The property is currently operating as an apartment building and is collecting rents from
existing tenants. Habitat estimates that the Project will generate $229,700 in rental income
during the condominium conversion process. Habitat will utilize this rental income as a funding
source for the Project.

2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
Habitat Financial Assistance
Habitat proposes to utilize fundraising contributions to off-set a portion of the development
costs. As such, Habitat estimates the financial assistance that they will provide to the Project at
$590,800, or $65,600 per unit.
ESTIMATED AVAILABLE REVENUE
The Project’s estimated total available revenue is equal to the sum of the Affordable Sales Price
revenue and the Project’s additional revenue. KMA estimates the total available revenue as
follows:
Affordable Sales Price Revenue $2,833,700
Rental Income 229,700
Habitat Financial Assistance 590,800
Estimated Available Revenue $3,654,200
Financial Gap Calculation
The financial gap is estimated by deducting the Project’s available revenue from the Project’s
total development costs. Based on the preceding analysis, KMA estimates the Project’s financial
gap as follows:
KMA
Total Development Costs $4,402,000
(Less) Total Available Revenue (3,654,200)
Estimated Financial Gap $747,800
Per Unit $83,100
As shown in the preceding table, KMA estimates the Project’s financial gap at $747,800.
Comparatively, Habitat is requesting $720,000 in Down Payment Assistance Program funding
from the City. Since this amount is less than the financial gap identified by KMA, it can be
EXHIBIT 5
City Council 18 – 50 3/4/2025
Judson Brown, City of Santa Ana February 10, 2025
Habitat Wellington – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 10
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
concluded that the proposed Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation is warranted by the
project economics.
However, KMA estimates that the Project exhibits an unfunded financial gap of $27,800.
Habitat will need to secure funding sources for any unfunded financial gap in order for the
Project to be financially feasible. The City should confirm that Habitat has secured all necessary
funding sources before formally disbursing any City funds.
SILENT SECOND MORTGAGE REVENUE CALCULATION (TABLE 4)
As a basic premise, it must be assumed that the total of the liens accepted by a homebuyer
cannot exceed the unrestricted market value of the home. Furthermore, based on previous City
homeownership projects, the City will record a second trust deed equal to the difference
between the Affordable Sales Price and the estimated market value of the home.
KMA assumes that the City’s second trust deed will be structured as deferred payment loans
which are commonly known as silent second mortgages. These loans typically become due and
payable when the home is resold to a non-affordable home buyer. KMA assumes that the City’s
silent second trust deed will fall second in the lien hierarchy behind the conventional first trust
deed mortgage.
The calculations used to estimate the supportable silent mortgages are presented in the
following sections of this analysis.
Market Rate Sales Prices
KMA researched sales comparables for similar units in the market area for the purpose of
estimating the current silent second mortgage amount. The appraisal provided by Habitat
included additional sales comparable data. Based on this information, KMA estimates the
market rate sales price for the units as follows:
1. One-Bedroom Units: $345,600
2. Two-Bedroom Unit: $389,700
EXHIBIT 5
City Council 18 – 51 3/4/2025

Habitat Wellington – Preliminary Financial Gap Analysis Page 11
2412002v3.SA.TRB
19090.018.035
Available Silent Second Mortgage Revenue
Based on the estimated market rate sales prices, the available silent second mortgage revenue
is estimated at as follows:
Moderate Income Units
One-Bedroom
Units
Two-Bedroom
Unit
Market Rate Sales Price $345,600 $389,700
(Less) Affordable Sales Price (310,400) (350,500)
Silent Second Mortgage Amounts (Per Unit) $35,200 $39,200
Number of Units 8 1
Available Silent Second Mortgage Capacity $281,600 $39,200
Total Amount of City Down Payment
Assistance Secured as Silent Mortgages
$320,800
Thus, it is important to note that based on the estimated market rate prices, the City will not be
able to secure the full $80,000 in City Down Payment Assistance Program funding per unit. The
City will only be able to secure the amount of mortgage capacity between the appraised market
value and the first mortgage amount.
Based on current estimates, the City will be able to secure $320,800 of the $720,000 in City
Down Payment Assistance Program funding as silent mortgages.
Proposed City Down Payment Assistance $720,000
(Less) Amount Secured by Silent Mortgages (320,800)
Estimated Amount Unable to be Secured Against
Affordable Units
$399,200

However, this calculation is provided for illustrative purposes only at this time. The calculation
will need to be conducted at the time of sale of each unit and must be based on the actual
appraised value and affordable sales prices at the time of sale.
Affordable Sales Price Differential
Furthermore, it is important to note that there typically needs to be a sales price differential
between the market rate sales price and the affordable sales price in order to entice
homebuyers to accept an affordability covenant.
The following illustrates the price differential based on the currently estimated market rate
sales affordable sales prices:
Moderate Income Units
One-Bedroom
Units

Market Rate Sales Price $345,600 $389,700

Ultimately, the silent second mortgage and sales price differential calculations will occur once
sales of the units commence. At that point, the appraised market values of the homes and the
defined Affordable Sales Prices will be utilized to determine the silent second mortgage
amounts and any possible affordable sales price reductions that are necessary to entice
affordable homebuyers.
CONCLUSIONS / RECOMMENDATIONS
The following summarizes the conclusions of the KMA analysis:
1. City Financial Assistance:
a. Down Payment Assistance Program Allocation:

i. Based on currently available information, KMA estimates the Project’s
financial gap at $747,800. In comparison, Habitat is requesting $720,000
in Down Payment Assistance Program funding from the City. As such,
Habitat’s request is supported by the Project economics.
ii. KMA estimates that the Project exhibits a $27,800 unfunded financial
gap. Habitat will need to secure funding sources for any unfunded
financial gap in order for the Project to be financially feasible. The City
should confirm that Habitat has secured all necessary funding sources
before disbursing any funds.
b. Conditional Relocation Allocation: The City may utilize up to $200,000 in
Inclusionary Funds to provide relocation assistance to existing apartment tenants
that do not purchase an affordable unit at the property. The specific amounts
utilized for the Conditional Relocation Allocation will based on actual amounts
determined immediately prior to the relocation of existing tenants.
2. Habitat purchased the property for $325,000, or approximately 12%, more than the
appraised value. However, the City established the maximum amount of City Down
Payment Assistance Program Allocation based on the funding limits established by the
City’s Down Payment Assistance Program (DPAP). Habitat is required to fund any
remaining financial gap amount after the affordable sales price revenue and City’s
financial assistance amount is taken into consideration. Therefore, Habitat is responsible
for the purchase price that exceeds the appraised value of the property.
3. Given the preliminary nature of the proposal, if the scope of development or financing
assumptions change, the KMA analysis may need to be updated accordingly.
4. The affordable sales prices cannot be finalized until the Project commences sales
activities. It is likely that the actual affordable sales prices will differ from the amounts
estimated in this analysis.
5. The silent second mortgage and sales price differential calculations will occur once sales
of the units commence. At that point, the appraised market values of the homes and the
defined affordable sales prices will be utilized to determine the silent second mortgage
amounts and any possible affordable sales price reductions that are necessary to entice
affordable homebuyers.

a. Based on current estimates of market rate sales prices, the City will not be able
to secure the full $80,000 per unit in City Down Payment Assistance with silent
second mortgages. KMA estimates that approximately $399,200 of the City’s
$720,000 in City Down Payment Assistance Program funds will not be able to be
secured by the affordable units.
b. The affordable sales prices may need to be reduced further in order to entice
homebuyers to accept an affordable covenant.
6. KMA typically recommends that the City retain 10% of the City’s financial assistance
amount (or $92,000) until after the completion of the construction. However, in this
instance, the City will provide the Down Payment Assistance Program funds directly to
eligible homebuyers and any relocation assistance will be based on actual relocation
costs at the time of the relocation of tenants. As such, there is no need to impose a 10%
retention requirement on the Project.

The FY2024-25 (FY24-25) Mid-Year Budget Update provides a snapshot of General Fund
activity for the first six months of the fiscal year, updated revenue estimates based on the
latest available information, recommended appropriation adjustments, proposed
workforce changes, and a full-time Vacancy Rate report by department and bargaining
unit as of December 31, 2024. This update also includes an updated summary of all funds
with estimated fund balances on June 30, 2025.

The proposed adjustments in this report result in a net decrease of $223,598 in the
estimated Spendable General Fund balance. The First Quarter Budget Report on
November 19, 2024, indicated that preliminary economic data from the City’s sales tax
consultant suggested sales tax revenue for FY24-25 would fall below original projections.
Updated data and revised estimates from the consultant now confirm this shortfall,
requiring budget adjustments.
To offset this reduction in revenues and maintain a balanced budget, staff is
recommending the adjustments outlined in this report, which include a combination of
adjustments to other revenue sources performing better than expected and targeted
expenditure reductions, while also incorporating mid-year requests (as shown in Exhibit
1).
The following table illustrates that the General Fund remains balanced after the
recommended Mid-Year adjustments by breaking out recurring expenditures and
revenues, excluding one-time items.

General Fund Revenues
A summary of General Fund revenues follows.
The City generated approximately $132 million or 32% in revenue as of December 31,
2024. Since the City receives most of its revenue up to 60 days after the corresponding
period, we can expect to have received approximately four (4) months (or 33%) of
revenue by December 31. One notable exception is Business License Tax, where the
City receives a majority of revenue in the spring of each year. The amount received in the
current fiscal year is slightly lower than revenue collected in the prior year. This decrease
is primarily attributed to lower sales tax receipts.
The following section provides a discussion on revenue estimate adjustments based on
the latest available information.
Sales Tax (Bradley Burns)
The original revenue estimate for Bradley Burns was $61.7 million. With two quarters now
completed, staff has decreased the revenue estimate by $2.7 million, bringing the
estimate to $59 million. Another quarter of data, along with updated estimates from the
City’s sales tax consultant, support this revised estimate. Sales tax receipts are 2.3%
below the same period in 2023 and down 3.9% compared to the second quarter of 2024.
The City’s largest sectors, autos and transportation, business and industry, and
fuel/service stations continue to struggle. Ongoing high prices and interest rates are
slowing sales growth.
Local Sales Tax (Measure X)
The original budget estimate for the Local Sales Tax (also known as Measure X) was
$85.6 million. The tax is down 2% compared to the second quarter of 2024. The overall
decrease is in the same sectors as Bradley Burns. Based on further guidance from the
Revenue Source

City’s Sales Tax consultants, staff has decreased revenue estimate by $2.8 million,
bringing the total to $82.9 million.
Utility Users Tax- Electric
Southern California Edison (SCE) implemented multiple rate increases in 2024, and
because the Utility User Tax is calculated as a percentage of consumer bills, these higher
rates are generating additional revenue for the City. Additionally, increased electricity
consumption driven by higher demand for air conditioning during heatwaves and the
adoption of electric vehicles have further contributed to rising tax receipts. To align the
revenue estimate with actual receipts, staff has increased the revenue estimate by $1.5
million, bringing the total for FY24-25 to $18.3 million.
Business Tax
Business Tax revenues continue to exceed original estimates, driven by the diligent
efforts of Treasury Services staff in Finance to ensure that all businesses operating within
the City, including new businesses and those operating without a license, comply with
licensing requirements. This revenue increase is expected to continue as businesses are
properly onboarded and brought into compliance. As a result of these sustained efforts,
staff has increased the revenue estimate by $1,250,000, bringing the total to $17,450,000.
Property Tax, Property Tax, in lieu of VLF (VLF)
The City received the January payment for property tax in lieu of Vehicle License Fees
(VLF), which represents 50% of the annual allocation from the State. This payment
enables staff to accurately forecast total revenue for the fiscal year. Following the receipt
of the January payment, staff has revised the annual revenue estimate, increasing it by
$456,660, bringing the total budget to $44,465,670.
Documentary Stamp Tax
Based on actual and projected receipts, staff increased the Documentary Stamp Tax (also
known as the documentary transfer tax) revenue estimate by $400,000, bringing the total
budget to $1,200,000. This tax is imposed on the transfer of real property and is typically
paid when deeds, grants, or other property transfer documents are recorded. Revenue
trends suggest that collections will be closer to $1,200,000, as the original budget of
$800,000 was set too conservatively.
Refuse Franchise Fee
Under the current Franchise Fee Agreement, the City’s waste hauler is obligated to remit
either a minimum annual payment of $8 million or 17.9% of gross receipts, whichever is
greater. FY23-24 actual Waste Hauler franchise fee receipts were $9,555,441,
representing an increase of $1.26 million or 15% compared to FY22-23. Although staff
increased the Refuse Franchise Fee estimate by $1 million for FY24-25, bringing the total
to $9 million, actual revenues continue to exceed expectations. To better align the budget
with current trends, staff has increased the revenue estimate by $500,000, bringing the
new total to $9.5 million.

Zoo and Recreational Program Revenue
In FY24-25, Parks, Recreation and Community Services (PRCSA) expects an overall
increase in General Fund revenues from zoo and recreational programs, mainly due to
higher park reservation activity. Given these trends, staff has revised the revenue
estimate with a one-time adjustment of $354,650, bringing PRCSA’s total revenue budget
to $3.6 million.
Cannabis
Staff originally estimated a total Cannabis tax revenue of $14.2 million. However, actual
revenue is expected to be short, totaling only $10.1 million, due to several factors
contributing to the decline in California's legal cannabis market. These include increased
competition from the regional black market, which continues to offer lower prices, and an
oversupply in the market which may be driven by more cities allowing the sale of
cannabis. As a result, many legal operators have struggled to maintain profitability, with
some closing their operations entirely, leading to lower-than-expected tax collections.
Several operators have also paid arrearages during the fiscal year, contributing a total of
$1.7 million in one-time revenues. While this will help reduce the overall revenue shortfall
for this year, it is not an ongoing source of funding. As such, the cannabis budget will
need to be adjusted for the next fiscal year to align with the expected baseline revenue.
With available data, our best estimate of revenues follows:
Therefore, we expect a revenue shortfall of $2.4 million ($14.2 million budgeted, less
$10.1 million expected, and $1.7 million in arrearages). This shortfall includes $1.6 million
subject to the two-thirds transfer to the Cannabis Public Benefit Fund, while medical-
related tax revenue is exempt from this transfer. As a result, the net General Fund impact
is a loss of $0.8 million, and the Cannabis Public Benefit Fund revenue loss is $1.6 million.
With this report, staff is proposing adjustments to the Cannabis Public Benefit Fund to
rebalance the budget, which are outlined later in this report.

General Fund Expenditures
A summary of General Fund expenditures follows.
With the fiscal year now halfway complete, current year expenditures are tracking very
close to FY23-24 with a total of $195,471,672 or 47%. In comparison, the City had
expended $196,707,044 with 47.1% this time last year. Non-Departmental expenditures
are approaching 60% of the budget, due to higher than anticipated litigation expenses.
Staff may return at the Third Quarter Budget Update scheduled for May with a request to
increase appropriations if the current pace of spending continues. PRCSA’s expenditure
budget appears to be tracking higher, only because carry forward adjustments are not
reflected in this analysis. Once carry forward adjustments are incorporated, PRCSA’s
spending aligns more closely with other departments. Due to the revenue reductions
described previously in this report, staff is utilizing a combination of one-time funds and a
handful of expenditure reductions to remain balanced. The use of one-time funds will
leave less on the table for the FY2025-26 (FY25-26) budget allocation process. The
discussion below explains those recommended adjustments as proposed in Exhibit 1.
Alley Improvements
In FY21-22, during the First Quarter Budget Report, a $1.5 million recurring budget
allocation was added for Alley Improvements to address several years of deferred
maintenance. This funding was made possible by continued increases in sales tax
revenue, specifically from Measure X. However, due to reductions in estimated sales tax
revenues for this fiscal year, staff recommends reducing this allocation by $1.4 million to
rebalance the budget. The most recently approved construction contract for alley

improvements, approved on November 19, 2024, was funded through the FY23-24
allocation, not the FY24-25 budget.
Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) Savings
As the FY24-25 budget was being finalized, staff received the final rate increase from
Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA). Each year, the budget is developed using OCFA’s
projected 4.5% cost increase, which represents the maximum allowable increase under
the agreement. Based on this estimate, total charges were projected at $51,507,080.
However, the final rate increase from OCFA was 4.06%, resulting in General Fund
savings of $212,840 for the City and reducing the total to $51,294,240. Staff is
recommending a budget decrease of $212,840 to reflect these savings.
Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Facility and Program Improvements
The Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Agency (PRCSA) is requesting a one-
time appropriation adjustment of $200,000 for the Santiago Gym flooring improvements
and Children’s Zoo programming, which were included in the Cannabis Public Benefit
Fund budget; however, with the reduction in Cannabis business tax revenue, staff
recommends funding these projects with one-time General Fund money.
Quality of Life Team (QOLT) Homeless Services Cleaning Contract
The expansion of homeless cleanup services, including additional cleaning teams
available on evenings and weekends for both scheduled and on-call requests, has led to
higher monthly expenses. To sustain current service levels through the end of the fiscal
year, the Public Works Agency is requesting a one-time budget allocation of $63,500. As
part of the FY25-26 budget process, staff will reassess the recommended QOLT budget.
Street Light Utility Costs
Streetlight electrical utility costs have exceeded the current budget due to rising energy
rates and the installation of over 300 new streetlights. To cover these ongoing expenses
and ensure timely payment of utility costs, the Public Works Agency is requesting a
recurring budget allocation of $400,000 to address the shortfall.
Graffiti Abatement Program
On April 5, 2022, City Council approved amendments to the contract to increase the
annual funding for Graffiti Removal services and enhance service levels for the public.
These additional services help maintain a rapid average response time of 48 hours and
address graffiti in high-traffic areas, including railroad properties, arterials, bike trails, and
other highly visible locations. To support the annual contract increase and sustain current
service levels, the Public Works Agency is requesting a recurring allocation of $56,800.
Planning and Building Agency Software Subscription
The Planning and Building Agency is requesting ongoing funding of $16,500 for a
software subscription covering 50 user licenses. This software supports electronic plan
check reviews and will help accommodate increased development activity in the city. By

streamlining the review process, it will expedite plan checks and minimize delays in
project commencement.
Adjustments to Other Funds
Cannabis
As noted earlier, cannabis revenues are projected to fall short by $2.4 million. Of this
amount, $1.6 million is subject to the two-thirds transfer to the Cannabis Public Benefit
Fund. To address this shortfall, staff is proposing the following adjustments to rebalance
the cannabis budget, as outlined in the table below.
These adjustments also ensure compliance with Ordinance NS-3008, which requires that
no less than 50% of the Cannabis Fund be allocated to Youth Services. After
implementing these adjustments, 52% of the funding will support Youth Services, while
48% will be allocated to Enforcement.
While the proposed adjustments are intended to help balance the current year’s cannabis
budget, these budget challenges will need to be revisited and addressed in next year’s
budget development process, which is currently underway. Furthermore, the Police
Department's budget reduction will need to be covered within its existing General Fund
allocation.
As stated earlier, PRCSA’s reductions for the Salgado Gym and the Children’s Zoo will
be offset by one-time General Fund appropriations. The Children’s Eco Center

programming will be placed on hold until an alternative funding source is identified. The
Library is utilizing part-time vacancy savings from earlier in the fiscal year to absorb this
reduction; there will be no impact on service levels. FMSA and the Police Department are
both shifting these expenses to the General Fund, where the reductions will be absorbed
within existing resources.
PRCSA Fees and Donations
Staff is adjusting the PRCSA revenue budget to align with expected revenues for this
fiscal year. This revenue adjustment will also address the projected negative spendable
fund balance at the end of the fiscal year.
Gas Tax Fund
The state collects the Gas Tax on a cents-per-gallon basis, allocating a portion to the
City. When fuel prices increase, local street and road revenues remain unaffected by price
change since all tax rates are based on a per-gallon basis, independent of price
fluctuations. The most recent Gas Tax estimates from the League of California Cities
Fiscal Policy Advisor indicate an increase of $928,180 for FY24-25, bringing the revised
budgeted revenue to approximately $16.6 million. The Gas Tax Fund has an estimated
spendable fund balance of $26.3 million as of June 30, 2025, far exceeding the City’s
target reserve level of 20% of annual operating costs, which is $1.7 million. PWA staff will
return with appropriation requests once specific projects have been identified to utilize
this funding.
Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) Capital Projects
During the FY24-25 Carry Over process, the estimated spendable fund balance in the
Regional Transportation Center Fund was sufficient to cover $1.77 million but the actual
balance was short by $64,340. As a result, carryover amounts were adjusted to match
the available balance as of June 30, 2024. The City’s target reserve level for this fund is
$362,322, which represents 20% of annual operating costs. For FY24-25, the estimated
spendable fund balance at June 30, 2025 is $584,905, which exceeds the target reserve
level of $362,322. Accordingly, staff recommends an appropriation adjustment of $64,340
to fully restore funding for the following SARTC Capital Projects: $20,000 for the outdoor
fountain renovation, $24,342 for exterior painting, and $20,000 for fencing.
Civic Center Budget Increase
The City has a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) Agreement with the County of Orange to pay
for shared expenses related to the Civic Center area. These expenses include
maintenance, security, and capital project funding. Since the County adopted its budget
in late June after City Council approved the FY24-25 budget, a request for an
appropriation adjustment is needed to align the budget with the County under the JPA
agreement. With this adjustment, the Civic Center budget will increase by $907,600 in
both revenues and expenditures to support various projects, including Civic Center and
Courthouse concrete repairs, upgrades to Calsense Irrigation Controllers, waterproofing
of the Plaza of the Sun, and the rehabilitation of Civic Center Drive from Shelton to Flower.

Since these costs are reimbursed by the County, this adjustment ensures the City’s
budget remains balanced, though reimbursements typically occur one month after billing.
Liability and Property Insurance Fund
In an effort to settle claims and litigate matters early while minimizing litigation expenses,
Human Resources requests an appropriation adjustment of $1 million from spendable
fund balance for anticipated settlements. The Liability & Property Insurance Fund has
sufficient funds to support this request, with an estimated spendable fund balance of
$12.1 million. The City’s target reserve level for this fund is $17.2 million, representing
80% of liability, as actuarially determined every two years. Staff plans to address this
reserve deficit during the budget process by gradually increasing overhead charges to
rebuild the balance to the target level.
Quality Service Training
The Quality Service Training Fund was established as an internal service fund to provide
training and support services aimed at enhancing City services through the use of total
quality improvement tools. A budget appropriation is requested for the Quality Service
Training Fund to cover charges for the Organizational Development and Training room
setup. These charges were expected in FY23-24, but a processing delay shifted payment
to the current fiscal year. The fund will use its remaining spendable balance of $61,400
to cover the costs. With no further expenses anticipated, it will be formally closed after
the final payment. Training services are now being funded through HR’s General Fund
budget.
Workers Compensation Fund
Based on past loss history, the City is prioritizing the settlement of workers’ compensation
claims to avoid prolonged open cases. This approach helps mitigate long-term costs and
liability while ensuring efficient claim resolution. Human Resources requests an
appropriation adjustment of $946,266 in spendable fund balance to support the
settlement of workers’ compensation claims. The Workers Compensation Fund has
sufficient funds to support this request, with an estimated spendable fund balance of
$19.7 million. The City’s target reserve level for this fund is $30.5 million, representing
80% of liability, as actuarially determined every two years. The City’s target reserve level
for this fund is $30.5 million, representing 80% of liability, as actuarially determined every
two years. Similar to the Liability & Property Insurance Fund, staff plans to address this
reserve deficit during the budget process by gradually increasing overhead charges to
rebuild the balance to the target level.
Corporate Yard
Since Aldridge Electric is no longer a renter at the Corporate Yard, the City no longer
receives revenue from this source. Staff recommends adjusting the Corporate Yard
budget to align revenues with expenditures, resulting in a $27,528 reduction due to the
loss of revenue from Aldridge Electric with an equal offsetting decrease to the Corporate
Yard’s part-time salaries expenditure budget.

Inclusionary Housing Fund
In FY24-25, the City received $133,640 in revenue from Density Bonus Fees and the
City’s share of California Municipal Finance Authority. The Density Bonus Fees were
generated through the Third and Broadway project’s Miscellaneous Service Charges,
which is 1/8 of 1% of the gross valuation of construction charges. The City's share of
California Municipal Finance Authority fees is paid by developers on behalf of the tenants.
Staff recommends the appropriation of these funds to support the administration of the
City's Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. Additionally, the Inclusionary Housing Fund
provided $1,267,705 for the first-year implementation of the Rent Stabilization Program.
Therefore, an appropriation adjustment is requested for a transfer to reimburse the
Inclusionary Housing Fund for those first-year expenses.
Water and Sewer Fund
The Water and Sewer Fund needs to purchase various equipment, including a backhoe,
utility truck, heavy truck, CCTV truck, and other operational equipment. Staff
recommends appropriating $990,000 for the Water Fund and $450,000 for the Sewer
Fund.
Restricted Fund Adjustments
The City receives updated information after the beginning of the fiscal year for various
restricted funding sources, usually to update federal monies available for various
programs. Staff recommends a series of adjustments to resize restricted-money
appropriations to available balances and authorizations. Examples include federal
allocations to Community Development programs.
Proposed Workforce Changes
As part of the Mid-Year Budget Update, City departments propose workforce changes,
including new positions and/or changes to existing positions to reflect organizational
changes and priorities. Although there will be an FY2025-26 (FY25-26) fiscal impact due
to these changes, there is no net fiscal impact in FY24-25. Existing department budgets
will absorb the cost of these workforce changes. The FY25-26 General Fund fiscal impact
follows:

In summary, staff requests the addition and reallocation of 13 full-time positions offset by
a decrease of 14.5 part-time positions, increased revenue, and reduced reliance on
outside contract services.
The Human Resources Department is requesting approval to make changes to the City’s
Classification and Compensation Plan in collaboration with various department. The
request includes the following:
•Creation of three new classifications
•Merging of five classifications
•Updating of titles or compensation for 11 existing classifications.
The new classifications will bring zoo veterinary services in-house within PRCSA and
create managerial oversight classifications within the Water Services Division of the
Public Works Agency.

The compensation changes will create internal equity between similar engineering
classifications in the City between the Public Works Agency and the Planning and
Building Agency.
Five classifications are being merged into two classifications to create fewer and more
effective classifications to meet the needs of the Accounting Division of the Finance and
Management Services Agency (FMSA). The classification title changes seek to
standardize, ensure uniformity, and modernize classification titles as used internally and
in outside agencies. These changes will help ensure the City’s classification and
compensation plan provides equitable compensation, utilizes appropriately titled
classifications, and remains competitive with both, internal classifications and those of
comparable external agencies, ultimately enhancing the City’s recruitment and retention
efforts. Classification and compensation proposed changes are detailed in Exhibit 2.
The following are proposed workforce changes for full-time positions as detailed in Exhibit
3.
City Manager’s Office
•The City Manager’s Office is requesting to reallocate an Administrative
Receptionist to an Executive Assistant. An Executive Assistant provides more
sophisticated activities to support and balance City Councilmembers’ requests, as
well as administrative support to the Deputy City Manager and Assistant City
Managers.
Human Resources (HR)
•Currently, the Human Resources department has a Management Analyst
underfilling the Senior Organizational Development and Training (OD&T) Analyst
position. HR is requesting a new Management Analyst position to retain the current
Management Analyst and allow the Senior OD&T Analyst position to be filled
accordingly. The Management Analyst is essential for managing the department’s
budgets, contracts, and Public Records Requests, while the Senior OD&T Analyst
is critical for expanding training, coaching, and recognition programs that support
employee growth and the City’s commitment to innovation and professional
development. A portion of HR’s General Fund part-time salaries budget will be
used to fully fund the additional Management Analyst position, resulting in a net
zero fiscal impact for this request.
Finance and Management Services Agency (FMSA)
•The purpose of the reallocation from an Accounts Payable (AP) Technician to a
Senior Accounting Assistant is to differentiate an experienced AP Technician from
an entry-level. This position, like other Senior Accounting Assistants in FMSA,
performs duties that require the application of specialized knowledge and skills
gained only through experience with the City.

•Treasury & Customer Services is requesting to add two additional Customer
Service Representatives (CSR). One CSR will support revenue collection
activities, new business license software implementation, field inspections, and
audits. Due to the revenue offsets of this position, it will have no fiscal impact to
the General Fund. The other CSR will be assigned to Treasury and will perform
cashiering, banking, and deposit activities. The fiscal impact will be partially offset
by the reduction of the division’s part-time salaries budget.
Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Agency (PRCSA)
•The Athletics Section has successfully expanded youth and adult sports programs
and managed an increase in athletic facility reservation and permit activity. To
meet growing demands, PRCSA proposes reallocating the Recreation Specialist
position to a Recreation Program Coordinator, which will provide additional
oversight and leadership for the Athletic Facility Reservation and Permit program.
PRCSA is fully offsetting the cost of this reallocation by reducing the part-time
budget within the same Accounting Unit.
•To enhance effectiveness, provide expanded veterinary hours, and comply with
new USDA regulations and the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)
standards, PRCSA is proposing to reallocate a Zoo Curator of Health to a full-time
Zoo Veterinarian and add two part-time Zoo Registered Veterinary Technician
positions. Having a full-time Zoo Veterinarian with the support of two part-time Zoo
Registered Veterinary Technicians will ensure timely and responsive
communication regarding emergent animal health issues, enabling faster and
more efficient action. PRCSA is also fully offsetting the cost of this reallocation by
reducing the budget for contracted veterinary services.
Planning and Building Agency (PBA)
•PBA is requesting to add a Receptionist due to an expansion of City services.
Public counters at City Hall are experiencing an increase in walk-in customers who
require assistance from the Information Desk receptionists. Beginning in August
2024, the receptionists’ duties increased. They now screen customers for PBX
services. To ensure stability and create a positive first impression for the public,
the need for an additional Information Desk staff member is essential.
•A Permit Services Technician is requested due to an increased demand for
services. PBA is currently accepting electronic plans for plan checks while
continuing to work with legacy customers who submit paper plans. Due to the
labor-intensive nature of electronic and internet portal-based system, the daily
queue of projects to process ranges from 100 to 200 projects, with permit process
turnaround times of eight to ten business days. The addition of this position will
ultimately enable PBA to reduce this turnaround time to two business days. PBA
is foregoing its part-time budget and utilizing a portion of the contracted services
budget to afford this position.

Police Department (PD)
•PD is proposing to reallocate two Systems Administrator positions to a Senior
Systems Administrator to better align with functions and duties performed by the
current incumbents beyond the job classification. These two reallocations will also
help with talent retention and career ladder opportunities.
Public Works Agency (PWA)
In response to ongoing and future development, including major projects such as Related
Bristol and The Village, PWA is requesting additional staff for the Engineering Resources
Division to respond to the development needs of the community.
•PWA proposes adding an Assistant Engineer to perform plan check services due
to the increased development in the city. The addition of an Assistant Engineer will

Resource Division to issue residential parking permits. The addition of one full-time
Senior Office Assistant will replace the need for three part-time clerical aides.

Contribution to Section 115 Trust for Pension Stabilization from Payroll and
Retirement Funds
In line with the City Council-approved Unfunded Employee Pension Liability Cost
Reduction Policy, staff recommends a one-time $1 million contribution from the Payroll
and Retirement funds. This additional deposit is part of the overall Section 115 Trust
strategy outlined in the Unfunded Employee Pension Liability Cost Reduction Policy
adopted by City Council in 2021, which helps mitigate fluctuations in future contributions
caused by differences in actual plan performance and changes to actuarial assumptions
made by CalPERS.
This contribution also helps prepare for future revenue challenges, including the
scheduled decrease in the Local Sales Tax (Measure X) rate from 1.5% to 1.0% on April
1, 2029, by proactively strengthening the Section 115 Trust. This forward-looking
approach ensures stable pension cost management and enhances the City’s long-term
financial sustainability.
Previously, in December 17, 2024, Council approved a $2 million deposit as part of the
General Fund Results Staff Report. With this additional $1 million deposit and the original
budgeted deposit, the total deposits approved during this year now amount to $14.95
million for both the General and Non-General Funds.

The Payroll and Retirement funds manage both inflows and outflows related to employee
and employer contributions for benefits. Inflows primarily consist of employee payroll
deductions and City-paid contributions, including amounts earmarked for CalPERS and
other employee benefits such as health insurance and deferred compensation plans.
Outflows include payments to CalPERS for pension obligations, as well as disbursements
to other benefit providers.
Over the past ten years, residual balances have accumulated within these funds due to
one-time transactions, such as retroactive pay adjustments, benefit corrections, and
payroll reconciliations. These variances have arisen from differences between
calculations for these one-off transactions and the actual payments processed by the
payroll system versus what the general ledger shows. As a result, fund balances have
grown and are now available for strategic allocation.
Staff recommends transferring the $1 million to the General Fund before depositing it into
the Section 115 Trust. This administrative process will clear residual balances from the
Payroll and Retirement funds, enhancing the City's financial position and supporting the
effective management of future pension-related costs.
Next Steps
•Early direction for the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget is scheduled for March 18.
•The Public Works Agency (PWA) has identified funding needs for the Centennial
Park Improvements. These include enhanced lighting, a family recreation area with
additional lighting, restroom upgrades, a dog park, a walking trail, and a connection
to the Santa Ana River. While we have no funding requests at this time, PWA staff
anticipates bringing the construction contract and an additional one-time General
Fund appropriation request to City Council for consideration on March 18.
•Staff will bring forward a separate staff report proposing the addition of a
construction crew to handle work currently performed by external vendors. The
increased costs will be offset by reductions in contract service expenses as the
work is brought in-house.

EXHIBIT 1
City Council 21 – 3 3/4/2025
(4) A statement of the public purposes for the economic development subsidy.
On August 5, 2013, the City Council approved the execution of a sales tax sharing
agreement with IPC (USA), Inc., an independent wholesale distributor of gasoline,
diesel, jet fuel, and other refined petroleum products throughout the United States.
The Agreement provided for a 50 percent sharing of local sales tax generation, plus
a 70 percent (IPC) and 30 percent (City) sharing of additional sales tax generation
above $1.4 million dollars. On November 1, 2019, IPC (USA), Inc. was acquired by
TACenergy, one of the largest national wholesale fuel suppliers in the county, with
annual sales exceeding 2.7 billion gallons and more than $5 billion in revenue.
Since the agreements execution, IPC has been a top ten sales tax producer for the
City. This sales tax generated is directly deposited into the City’s General Fund which
is primarily used to fund police, fire, homeless reduction, and parks and recreational
services for the City’s residents.
Without this agreement, several of the City’s general services may be cut or reduced
for its residents.
(5) The net tax revenue accruing to the local agency as a result of the economic
development subsidy.
Since the commencement of the Agreement, $4,097,060 in total sales tax has been
generated by TACenergy. The City has retained 50% of that amount: $2,048,530.
(6) The net number of jobs created by the economic development subsidy, broken
down by full-time, part-time and temporary positions.
The Agreement has retained approximately 20 positions. The company has reported
that challenges arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, along with regulatory changes
at both the Federal and State levels, have impacted the fuel sales sector. However,
their overall growth has aligned with the broader trends in transportation fuel demand,
and it is expected that further hiring will take place in the near future.

the public and posted on the City’s website until the end date of the economic
development subsidy, as further described in number 2 below.
(1)The name and address of all corporations or any other business entities,

development subsidy, if applicable.
The Agreement is with THRIVE Santa Ana, Inc., a 501(c)(3) tax exempt California

P.O. Box 1935
Santa Ana, CA 92702
(2)The start and end dates and schedule, if applicable, for the economic

2120.
(3)A description of the economic development subsidy, including the estimated
total amount of the expenditure of public funds by, or of revenue lost to, the
local agency as a result of the economic development subsidy.

City Council 22 – 3 3/4/2025
(4) A statement of the public purposes for the economic development subsidy.
The property at 1901 W Walnut has been vacant for over 15 years. Development of
the site as a microfarm would bring positive community benefits to the area that
include: 1) making organic produce and other healthy options more available in the
local neighborhood, 2) implementing a membership-based model to provide monthly
baskets of vegetables, fruit and other garden products to members at a low cost, 3)
creating worker cooperative jobs, 4) encouraging participation from local residents
which can contribute to the local neighborhood economy, civic engagement, and
prevention of costly health conditions including obesity and mental health illnesses.
(5) The net tax revenue accruing to the local agency as a result of the economic
development subsidy.
Property tax revenue to the City is anticipated to be approximately $1,500 per year.
No sales tax revenue would be generated as a result of the economic development
subsidy as the sales for a microfarm with organic produce would not be subject to
sales tax.
(6) The net number of jobs created by the economic development subsidy, broken
down by full-time, part-time and temporary positions.
Upon completion of the micro-farm, the project will create approximately 5 full-time
jobs, 10 part-time jobs, and 10 temporary positions within the next five years.

Councilmember-Requested Item Report
DATE

TOPIC
Ordinance requiring applicants for contracts, licenses, permits, or other entitlements for use to
disclose pending or prior FPPC and FEC enforcement.
COUNCILMEMBER-REQUESTED ITEM TITLE
Discuss and consider directing the City Manager to direct City staff to draft and bring back an
ordinance for Council consideration that would require applicants for contracts, licenses, permits,
or other entitlements for use to disclose pending or prior FPPC and FEC enforcement actions.
DISCUSSION
The City of Santa Ana is committed to transparency and is a local leader in transparency and
public participation. Our City’s robust sunshine ordinance allows for public participation through
notifications and community meetings, where members of the public can engage directly with
developers and contractors.
Developments in Santa Ana have the ability to significantly alter the character of a neighborhood
in more impactful ways than developments in other less dense cities. Developments in Santa
Ana also have the potential to yield tremendous profits for developers. It is therefore not
surprising that developers are politically active in locations they wish to develop and have been
known to contribute directly to candidates and to political action committees supporting or
opposing candidates or measures. Various reports on community impacts, such as traffic,
parking, and the environment, are made available to the public when proposed developments
meet certain criteria. Information about unlawful political activities by applicants for
developments should also be made available to the public. Given the stakes involved for both
constituents and developers and the fact that certain developments require Planning
Commission and/or City Council approval, it is imperative that stakeholders, such as residents
and businesses, be fully informed as to who is proposing development in their city and
neighborhoods, and whether they have engaged in unlawful political activity. Development can
be complex and often undertaken by corporate entities, which can create a situation where the
public sees nothing more than a corporate entity’s name on an application. This allows for

individuals who have violated State and Federal campaign laws to attempt to operate in the city
by hiding their identities behind a corporate entity and thus evade public scrutiny.
If the public sought to learn whether a developer had pending or prior FPPC or FEC violations,
fines, or enforcement actions, they would have to search the FPPC and FEC website for the
applicant listed on the application, but that applicant could be a corporate entity, and it would not
be clear if the principal partners or agents had pending or prior violations. Almost anything the
public may want to learn about a developer would require a level of sophistication and dedication
beyond what can or should be reasonably expected of the public.
Consumers can search professional trade organizations’ databases and easily verify
professional licenses and disciplinary action against licensees by those organizations. Attorney
licenses and discipline can be verified on State Bar websites. Medical, nursing, and other
healthcare licenses can be verified through the Medical Board of California. Accounting and
other professional licenses can be verified on the California Department of Consumer Affairs
website. Unfortunately, those databases do not list pending or prior FPPC or FEC violations and
many professionals respond to the City’s requests for contracted services.
I therefore request that the City Council direct the City Manager to direct City staff to draft and
bring back an ordinance for Council consideration that would require applicants for contracts,
licenses, permits, or other entitlements for use, including any person who files an application for,
or is the subject of, a proceeding involving a contract, license, permit, or other entitlement for
use, and any person who actively supports or opposes a particular decision in a proceeding
involving a contract, license, permit, or other entitlement for use and who has a financial interest
in the decision to disclose pending or prior FPPC and FEC violations, fines, and enforcement
actions and that those disclosures appear on any notices for public meetings, hearings, and staff
reports related to the application.
