THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION is approved and adopted by the City Council of the City of Anaheim this 4 th day of February , 2014, by the following roll call vote: AYES: Mayor Tait, Council Members Eastman, Murray, Brandman and Kring NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN:None CITY OF ANAHEIM MAYOR OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM ATTEST: kA "A CITY CLERK OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM 99766 /TReynolds 3 EXHIBIT "A" Proposed General Plan Amendment No. 2013 -00488 would revise the text on page LU -33 of the General Plan Land Use Element as shown below. Deletions are shown in str+ket#r and additions are shown in underline Tables LU -5 and LU -6 are proposed to amended as shown on the "Existing" and "Proposed" tables on the following pages. Land Use Buildout Analysis Providing a blueprint for the future development of Anaheim is one of the primary purposes of the General Plan. The Land Use Plan, which includes areas within Anaheim's sphere -of- influence, identifies 16 16,519 acres of residential land uses, 644 659 acres of residential mixed -use land uses, and 5,619 acres of other employment - generating land uses. Assuming a probable intensity for each of the land use designations, the land use plan provides for 42-9,308 137,954 dwelling units (see Table LU -5). Based on a factor of 3.3 persons per household (1.5 per household in mixed -use areas), the estimated build -out population of the Land Use Plan would be 404, 407,463 persons. Of the employment - generating land uses, the land use plan provides for a total of 4,150 1,121 acres of Neighborhood, Regional and General Commercial uses, 625 532 acres of office uses, and 2,677 2,684 acres of industrial uses and 707 acres of residential and non - residential mixed use. Combined with the eff*Ge and these land use designations would generate approximately 251,495 228,470 jobs using the probable intensity factors (FARs) for each non- residential land use designation (see Table LU -6). Additional employment opportunities will also be provided by the implementation of the Commercial Recreation land use designation through the Anaheim Resort, Disneyland Resort and Hotel Circle Specific Plans.

Dwelling units in areas not anticipated to change are the number of dwelling units in areas that are not likely to be further subdivided or areas that have a fixed buildout capacity through a specific plan. These are determined by: 1) adding the number of parcels in areas that are not likely to further subdivide; or 2) by referencing the number of units expected at buildout for areas addressed through specific plans (see Table LU -1). The Mountain Park Specific Plan area assumes a total buildout of 2,500 dwelling units - 485 units of Low Medium Hillside Density and 2,015 units of Low Medium Density. Mixed -Use densities and buildout projections for The Platinum Triangle are identified separately in Table LU -4. Acreages identified in this table are approximate.
