RESOLUTION NO. 2011-018
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE
SANTA ANA GENERAL PLAN CIRCULATION ELEMENT
BIKEWAY MASTER PLAN (GPA NO. 2011-01)
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. General Plan Amendment No. 2011-01 has been initiated by the City of
Santa Ana to amend the General Plan Circulation Element Bikeway Master
Plan to allow a class II (on road) bike lane on Memory Lane between Bristol
Street and Flower Street, and Flower Street between Memory Lane and
Fisher Park, and a Class I (off road) bike path on Bear Street between
Segerstrom Avenue and MacArthur Boulevard.
B. On February 28, 2011, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed
public hearing and voted to recommend that the City Council adopt a
resolution approving General Plan Amendment No. 2011-01.
C. On March 21, 2011, 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.
D. The Council finds that General Plan Amendment No. 2011-01 is consistent
with the General Plan, including, but not limited to, its policies and goals to
promote sustainability, quality development, and encourage a variety of
transportation alternatives to serve the Santa Ana community.
E. The Council finds that the City's general plan is designed, as it must be, to
accommodate a wide range of competing interests - including those of
developers, neighborhoods and homeowners, prospective homebuyers,
environmentalists, current and prospective business owners, jobseekers,
taxpayers, and providers and recipients of all types of city-provided
services - and to present a clear and comprehensive set of principles to
guide development decisions. The City's general plan sets forth these
guiding principles. Once in place, it is the province of this Council to
examine the specifics of a proposed project to determine whether it would
be in harmony with the policies stated in the general plan.

F. The City Council has weighed and balanced the general plan's policies,
both new and old, and has determined that based upon this balancing that
General Plan Amendment No. 2011-01 is consistent with the purpose of
the general plan.
G. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed
project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15304(h), as the
project proposes the minor alteration of the condition of land by the
creation of a bicycle lane in existing right of way. Environmental Review
No. 2011-11 will be filed for this project.
Section 2. The City Council hereby approves General Plan Amendment No.
2011-01. The amendments to the Circulation Element are attached hereto as Exhibit A
and incorporated herein by this reference as though fully set forth herein. This decision is
based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes, but is not
limited to: the Request for Council Action dated March 21, 2011, and exhibits attached
thereto, and the public testimony written and oral, all of which are incorporated herein
by this reference.
ADOPTED this 21st day of March 2011.
