ZONING ADMINISTRATOR ACTION
On June 4, 2014, the Zoning Administrator adopted a resolution approving Tentative Parcel Map
No. 2014 -02 (County Map No. 2013 -154) as conditioned to subdivide a parcel into two residential
lots to facilitate the construction of a single - family residence at 1135 West Brook Street located
in the Multiple Family Residential (R3) zoning district. The Zoning Administrator modified
Condition No. 4 to require construction of a six -foot tall decorative block wall along all rear and
side yards not in front yard areas of proposed lots A and B and approved the item as amended
(Exhibit A).
Howard Glasser is requesting approval of a parcel map to divide an existing 13,511 - square foot
through lot into two roughly equally -sized residential lots to facilitate the construction of a new
single - family residence. The first lot, currently developed with a single - family residence at 1135
West Brook Street, will be approximately 6,756 square feet, while the second lot at 1134 West
Highland Street will be approximately 6,755 square feet. A new single - family residence and
detached garage are proposed to be constructed on the Highland Street lot. The proposed
development will satisfy the minimum requirements of the SAMC. Full sized site plans are
available for public viewing in the Clerk of the Council Office.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal No. 5 Community Health, Livability,
Engagement & Sustainability, Objective Nos. 3 and 4 (facilitate diverse housing opportunities
and support neighborhood vitality and livability) by allowing the applicant to subdivide an existing,
underutilized lot to develop a new single - family residence on site.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution approving Tentative Parcel Map No. 2014 -02 (County Map No. 2013 -154) as
conditioned.
Request of Applicant
Howard Glasser, representing Tioga Pass Properties, LLC, is requesting approval of a tentative parcel
map to subdivide a parcel into two residential lots to facilitate the construction of a new single- family
residence. Applications for residential subdivisions of under five parcels require approval of a parcel
map by the Zoning Administrator pursuant to Section 34 -126 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code
(SAMC).
Pronect Location and Site Description
The project is located on a 13,511- square foot (0.31 -acre) through lot that extends from Brook Street
north to Highland Street near the intersection of Bristol Street and McFadden Avenue. The property is
flat and rectangular in shape and is currently improved with a residential use.
Structures on the site include an existing four- bedroom single - family residence and detached garage.
Land uses surrounding the site vary in development and unit intensity. These include single - family
and multiple- family residences to the north, east, and south, and single - family, two - family and
multiple - family residences to the west (Exhibits 1, 2, and 3).
Protect Description
Howard Glasser is requesting approval of a parcel map to divide an existing 13,511- square foot
through lot into two roughly equally -sized residential lots to facilitate the construction of a new single -
family residence. The first lot, currently developed with a single - family residence at 1135 West Brook
EXHIBIT A
32A -3
Tentative Parcel Map No. 2014 -02

Page 2
Street, will be approximately 6,756 square feet, while the second lot at 1134 West Highland Street will
be approximately 6,755 square feet. A new single - family residence and detached garage are
proposed to be constructed on the Highland Street lot. The proposed development will satisfy the
minimum requirements of the SAMC.
The applicant has submitted preliminary architectural elevations and a site plan, which complies
with the minimum setback and lot coverage requirements. Subsequent plan check submittals will
be subject to a thorough architectural and landscape review to ensure compliance with current
architectural, design, landscape, and development standards applicable to single - family residential
developments (Exhibits 4 and 5).
Project Background
The through lot that is the subject of this application was shown on assessor's parcel maps as early
as March 1948. In 1961, the existing structure on the site was relocated to the property from 1614
South Sycamore Street. The original structure contained two residential units. In 2000, the structure
was converted to a single - family residence that met the requirements of the SAMC in place at the
time.
The subject property was acquired by the current property owner, Tioga Pass Properties, LLC, in July
2013. Since then, the current owner has substantially rehabilitated the existing single - family
residence on the site through a variety of improvements or repairs, including a new roof, installation of
new windows, furnace, and a water heater, as well as repairs to the foundation.
In January 2014, the applicant submitted applications and plans to divide the through lot into two
roughly equally -sized properties and to construct a single - family residence on the resulting vacant lot.
Proposals to create subdivisions of less than five parcels, such as the current project, require review
and approval by the Zoning Administrator.
General Plan and Zoning consistency
The General Plan land use designation for the site is Low Density Residential (LR -7). The LR -7
designation applies to areas of the City that are developed with lower density residential land uses,
with an allowable maximum development density of seven units per acre. The proposed parcel map
and single - family residence is consistent with the maximum allowable development density for this
General Plan land use designation.
The parcel is located within the Multiple- Family Residence (R -3) zoning district. The R -3 zoning
district allows for the development of single- family residences pursuant to the provisions and
development standards found in Division 3, Article III (Single - Family Residence) of the SAMC,
making the proposed use consistent with the zoning designation.

Project Analysis
Subdivision requests are governed by Chapter 34 and Chapter 41 of the SAMC. Pursuant to Section
66473.5 and 66474 of the California Subdivision Map Act, applications for tentative parcel maps are
approved when it can be shown that the following can be established:
• That the proposed project, as conditioned, and its design and improvements are consistent with
the land use designation of the General Plan and are otherwise consistent with all other Elements
of the General Plan and applicable Specific Plans.
• That the proposed project, as conditioned, conforms to all applicable requirements of the zoning
and subdivision codes as well as other applicable City ordinances.
That the project site is physically suitable for the type and density of the proposed project.
• That 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.
That design or improvements of the proposed project will not cause serious public health
problems.
That 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.
If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to approve the tentative parcel map. Conversely,
the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared
the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report.
In analyzing the applicant's request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant
approval of the tentative parcel map.
The proposed project, as conditioned, and its design and improvements will be consistent with
the Low Density Residential (LR -7) land use designation of the General Plan and are otherwise
consistent with all other elements of the General Plan and any applicable specific plans. The
density of the proposed subdivision, at seven dwelling units per acre, is consistent with the Low
Density Residential land use designation and all other elements of the General Plan.
The proposed project, as conditioned, will conform to all applicable requirements of the zoning
and subdivision codes as well as other applicable City ordinances. The proposed project, as
conditioned, conforms to the provisions of the zoning code, including lot size, lot frontage,
landscaping, setbacks, lot coverage, and parking,
32A -5
Tentative Parcel Map No. 2014 -02
June 4, 2014

• 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 residence as proposed since the property
is located within the Multiple - Family Residence (R -3) zoning district, which permits single - family
dwellings, and has a General Plan land use designation of Low Density Residential at seven
dwelling units per acre. Additionally, this site is surrounded by a combination of residential uses of
various densities, including single - family and multi - family structures.
• 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. Since the project
site is located in an urbanized area, 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.
• Design or improvements of the proposed project will not cause serious public health problems.
The proposed subdivision will not have any detrimental effects upon the general public. Each
property includes necessary utilities and infrastructure improvements as conditioned in
Development Project No. 2014 -01.
• 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
significant public access easement located within this property.
The tentative parcel map is proposed to subdivide an existing 13,511- square foot site into two
parcels. The subdivision has been reviewed and has been found to be in conformance with the
City's subdivision regulations (SAMC Chapter 34) as well as the California Subdivision Map Act.
Existing infrastructure in the area will be upgraded to service the project. These upgrades include
construction of a new driveway, sidewalks, curbs, and gutters; planting of new sod and tree in the
landscape parkway; and new water service, all per City standards.
The proposed project, including both the subdivision and construction of a new single- family
residence, meets all provisions of the zoning code (SAMC Chapter 41), including lot size, lot
frontage, landscaping, setbacks, lot coverage, and parking. Further, the proposed subdivision is at
seven dwelling units per acre, which is consistent with the Low Density Residential General Plan
land use designation and all other elements of the General Plan. As a result, staff recommends
approval of Tentative Parcel Map No. 2014 -02 (County Map No. 2013 -154) as conditioned
(Exhibit 6).
Public Notification
The project site is located within the boundaries of the Pico - Lowell Neighborhood Association. The
president of this neighborhood association was contacted by staff and was notified by mail 10 days
prior to this public hearing. In addition, the project site was posted with a notice advertising this
32A -6
Tentative Parcel Map No. 2014 -02

Page 5
public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were
sent to all property owners within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no areas
of concern were raised, nor had any correspondence, either written or electronic, been received
from the neighborhood president or from any members of the public.
CEQA Compliance
This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the California Environmental
Quality Act. The project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15303. This Class 3
exemption allows in -fill developments for the construction and location of limited numbers of new,
small facilities or structures, such as the proposed project.
The project entails dividing an existing residential lot into two residential lots of equal size and
constructing an approximately 2,117 square foot home and garage on the new, second lot, while
retaining the existing home on the first lot. The project has been found by the City's development
review agencies to not create any adverse impacts such as noise, traffic, or safety concerns. As a
result, Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2014 -1 will be filed for this project.
Conclusion
Based on the analysis provided within this report, staff recommends that the Zoning Administrator
approve Tentative Parcel Map No. 2014 -02 as conditioned.
