(County Map No. 2002-144) as conditioned.
C. On September 19, 2005 the City Council of the City of Santa Ana held a
duly noticed public hearing and at that time considered all testimony,
written and oral.

established:
1. The proposed project, as conditioned, and its design and
improvements are consistent with the Low Density Residential land
use designation of the General Plan and are otherwise consistent
Resolution No. 2005-090
Page 1 of7
with all other elements of the General Plan and any applicable
specific plans.
The proposed subdivision will result in two single-family
residential units in conformance with the density for this land
use designation.
2. The proposed project, as conditioned, conforms to all applicable
requirements of the zoning and subdivision codes as well as other
applicable City ordinances.
The proposed project, as conditioned, conforms to all
provisions of the R-1 zoning district with respect to lot size,
frontage and setbacks.
3. The project site is physically suitable for the type and density of the
proposed project.
The proposed site is physically suitable for the single-family
development as proposed since the property will be located
within the Single-Family Residential (R1) zoning district and
has a General Plan land use designation of Low Density
Residential at seven dwelling units per acre (LR7).
Additionally, the site is surrounded by multi-family residential
to the east, a church/school to the west and north and
commercial uses to the south.
4. The design and improvements of the proposed project will not
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and
avoidably injure fish and wildlife or their habitat.
The project site is located in an urbanized area, and there
are no known fish or wildlife populations existing on the
project site. Therefore, the proposed subdivision will not
cause any substantial environmental damage or
substantially and avoidably injure fish and wildlife or their
habitat.
5. The design or improvements of the proposed project will not cause
serious public health problems.
The proposed subdivision is not anticipated to have any
detrimental effects upon the general public. Each property
will have sewer, water and the necessary infrastructure
improvements as conditioned in Development Project
Review No. 00-41.
Resolution No. 2005-090

6. The design or improvements of the proposed project will not conflict
with easements necessary for public access through or use of the
property within the proposed project.
The design or improvements of the proposed project will not
conflict with easements necessary for public access through
or use of the property within the proposed project since there
is no easement within this property.
Section 2. The City Council has reviewed and considered the information
contained in the initial study and the mitigated negative declaration and mitigation
monitoring program, Environmental Review No. 2005-138, prepared with respect to this
Project. The City Council has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence
presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, a
mitigation negative declaration and mitigation monitoring program adequately
addresses the expected environmental impacts of this Project. On the basis of this
review, the City Council finds that there is no evidence from which it can be fairly argued
that the Project will have a significant adverse effect on the environment. The City
Council hereby certifies and approves the mitigated negative declaration and mitigation
monitoring program and directs that the Notice of Determination be prepared and filed
with the County Clerk of the County of Orange in the manner required by law.
Pursuant to Title XIV, California Code of Regulations ("CCR") ~ 735.5(c)(1), the City
Council has determined that, after considering the record as a whole, there is no evidence
that the proposed project will have the potential for any adverse effect on wildlife resources
or the ecological habitat upon which wildlife resources depend. The proposed project
exists in an urban environment characterized by paved concrete, roadways, surrounding
buildings and human activity. Therefore, pursuant to Fish and Game Code ~ 711.2 and
Title XIV, CCR ~ 735.5(a)(3), the payment of Fish and Game Department filing fees is not
required in conjunction with this project.
Section 3. The City Council after conducting the public hearing hereby
approves Tentative Parcel Map No. 2005-09 (County Map No. 2002-144) as
conditioned in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein. This decision is based
upon the evidence submitted at the abovesaid hearing, which includes but is not limited
to: the Request for Council Action dated September 19, 2005 and exhibits attached
thereto; and the public testimony, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference
Section 4. The approval of Tentative Parcel Map No. 2005-09 is expressly
conditioned upon adoption by the City Council of Amendment Application No. 2005-03
to rezoning the property located at 606 South Euclid Street from Community
Commercial (C 1) to Single-Family Residence (R 1). The rights of the applicant under
this Tentative Parcel Map shall not vest until the effective date of such ordinance.
Should no such amendment become effective, then this Tentative Parcel Map is null
and void and of no effect.
