Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-638 authorizes the Planning Commission to grant a conditional use permit upon making certain findings. Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community? The project use will provide a combination of office/industrial space in an established, industrial base area.

Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity? • Resolution No. 2002-38 Page 1 of 3 • Since the proposed operation will be primarily office, the use will not introduce any waste products and will have a low amount of visitors to the site. The site complies with all development standards, which should enhance and not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area. 3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties in the surrounding area? The mortgage company will occupy a previously vacant shell building constructed in 2000. Bankers Diversified Mortgage intends to improve the interior of the building and add features to accent the exterior of the building for the new interior office areas. The proposed improvements will add value to the property and enhance the economic viability of the area by providing a stable tenant that has served the community for close to 17 years. This use and the proposed property improvements should benefit the community and not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties in the surrounding area. 4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions • specified in Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code for such use? The subject property is zoned Light Industrial. The project and the site will be in compliance with all code regulations and requirements imposed. The project currently meets or exceeds all minimum standards specified in Chapter 41 of the City of Santa Ana zoning ordinance. 5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan of the City? The proposed use will not adversely impact the General Plan of the City, as this office/industrial use is consistent with the industrial land use designation. In addition, due to no floor area expansion, but rather a conversion of existing floor area, the existing floor area ratio has not been altered. D. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the recommended action is exempt from further review.
