TABLE LU -4: GENERAL PLAN DENSITY PROVISIONS FOR SPECIFIC AREAS OF THE CITY (CONTINUED)
Note No. 1: The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan provides for the development of an approximate 489.7 acre international
multi -day vacation designation resort including ongoing modifications to the Disneyland theme park, the development of a
new theme park, additional hotels and entertainment areas, administrative office facilities, new public and private parking
facilities, and an internal transportation system. This development is within five planning Districts (Theme Park, Hotel,
Parking, Future Expansion and District A) and a C -R Overlay, which allows development within the Overlay to either be
consistent with the underlying Resort District or subject to the same land uses as in the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No.
92 -2 Zone. The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan also identifies maximum development density designations for hotel /motel
development in the Hotel District (up to 5,600 hotel rooms for the entire District with up to 1,000 hotel rooms transferable to
the Theme Park District), in District A (the maximum number of units permitted would be 75 hotel /motel rooms per gross
acre or 75 hotel /motel rooms per parcel existing on June 29, 1993, whichever is greater) and the C -R Overlay (the
maximum number of units permitted on a parcel would be the following: 1) for parcels designated Low Density up to 50
hotel rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms, whichever is greater; and 2) for parcels designated Medium Density up to 75
hotel rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms, whichever is greater; provided that for those parcels that are developed with
hotel /motel rooms which exceeded the maximum density designation, the number of rooms existing on the date of adoption
of The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan Ordinance may be rebuilt or modified at their existing density.) It should be noted
that accessory uses may be developed as well as other visitor serving commercial /retail and restaurant uses along with
these hotel /motel uses. The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan also provides for the development of the Anaheim
GardenWalk project pursuant to the Anaheim GardenWalk Overlay at the following density and subject to the approval of
Conditional Use Permit No. 4078, as amended, to permit the following: up to 569,750 square feet of specialty retail,
restaurants, and entertainment uses, including movie theaters; 1,628 hotel rooms /suites (including up to 500 vacation
ownership units) and 278,817 square feet of hotel accessory uses; a transportation center, and 4,800 parking spaces. The
Anaheim GardenWalk Overlay encompasses District A and the portion of the Parking District (East Parking Area) /CR
Overlay south of Disney Way.
Note No. 2: The Anaheim Resort Specific Plan provides for the development of approximately 582 acres within the C -R
(Commercial Recreation) District which allows for hotels, motels, convention and conference facilities, as well as
restaurants, retail shops and entertainment facilities; the PR (Public Recreation) District which encompasses the Anaheim
Convention Center and associated parking facilities and provides for the orderly use of City -owned property as well as the
existing Anaheim Hilton Hotel; the Mobilehome Park (MHP) Overlay which encompasses existing mobilehome parks within
the C -R District and provides development standards for mobilehome parks and regulations and procedures to mitigate
relocation concerns and adverse effects of displacement upon mobilehome owners when a park is converted to another
land use; and, the Anaheim Resort Residential Overlay, which applies to focused areas of the Specific Plan and provides
for the incorporation of (i) residential uses into hotel developments when such uses are fully integrated into a minimum 300
room full service hotel, or (ii) wholly residential uses on designated properties that meet the affordability requirements of the
Anaheim Resort Residential Overlay. The Anaheim Resort Specific Plan also identifies maximum development density
designations in the C -R District. These designations are based upon hotel /motel development and allow up to 20% of each
hotel /motel project gross square footage, excluding parking facilities, to be developed with integrated (i.e., included within
the main hotel /motel complex) accessory uses. These accessory uses will reduce the otherwise maximum permitted
hotel /motel density at the rate of one hotel /motel room per six hundred (600) gross square feet of accessory use. For
properties proposed to be developed with permitted and conditionally permitted uses other than hotels /motels with
accessory uses, the traffic generation characteristics of said uses shall not exceed those associated with the otherwise
permitted hotel /motel (including accessory uses) density as determined by the City Traffic and Transportation Manager prior
to Final Site Plan review and approval. The density designations are as follows: "Low Density," which has a maximum
density of up to 50 rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms per lot or parcel, whichever is greater; "Low- Medium Density," up to
75 rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms per lot or parcel, whichever is greater; "Medium Density," up to 100 rooms per gross
acre or 75 rooms per lot or parcel, whichever is greater; and, "Convention Center (CC) Medium Density," up to 125 rooms
per gross acre with trip generation characteristics mitigated to the equivalent of 100 rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms per
lot or parcel, whichever is greater. For those parcels that are developed with hotel /motel rooms which exceed the maximum
density designation, the number of rooms existing on the date of adoption of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan Ordinance
may be rebuilt or modified at their existing density. For projects that are developed in accordance with the Anaheim Resort
Residential Overlay, the maximum number of dwelling units allowed shall be less than the number of hotel rooms proposed
and such projects shall not create infrastructure impacts greater than the subject property's permitted hotel /motel density,
as permitted by the property's underlying C -R District density designation unless otherwise mitigated through subsequent
environmental analysis.
