RESOLUTION NO. 2014 -062
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA FOR THE EXTENSION OF VARIANCE NO.
2012 -07 FOR ONE YEAR FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED
AT 2702 NORTH BRISTOL STREET
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. In October of 2012, the City Council approved Variance No. 2012 -07 to
allow the construction of a new commercial building at 2702 North Bristol
Street.
B. The applicant has requested a one year extension for Variance No. 2012-
07. It is the Planning Division's policy to recommend no more than one
year extensions, mainly in an effort to encourage the construction of
previously approved projects.
C. The extension request came before the City Council on October 21, 2014.
D. Due to a significant shift in the local, state and national economies that
commenced several years ago, the property owner has been impacted by
the economic downturn and has been unable to start construction of the
project. Although the project has yet to be submitted into building plan
check, the applicant is hopeful that the recent shift in the economy will
allow him the ability to construct the project and find a tenant(s) for the
building.
E. Pursuant to City of Santa Ana Municipal Code section 41 -647, where
construction does not commence, these types of entitlements expire after
two years unless the applicant applies for, and the City Council approves,
an extension.
F. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, this project is
exempt from CEQA per Section 15061(b) (3). This determination has been
made as it has been determined that the proposed action will not cause a
significant effect on the environment.
Section 2. Conditional Use Permit No. 2012 -07 is hereby extended for a
period of one (1) year from the date of approval to October 14, 2015. This decision is
based upon the evidence submitted, which includes, but is not limited to, the Request
Resolution No. 2014 -062
