WHEREAS, the Property is currently developed with a plant nursery and a single -
family residence and is located in the "T" (Transition) Zone. Tentative Tract Map No. 17700 is
proposed in conjunction with (1) Reclassification No. 2013 - 00254, which is a request to rezone
or reclassify the Property from the "T" (Transition) Zone to the "RS -4" (Single - Family
Residential) Zone (herein referred to as "Reclassification No. 2013- 00254 "), and (2) Conditional

Municipal Code (the "Code ") for all development in the "RS -4" (Single - Family Residential)
Zone (herein referred to as "CUP No. 2013- 05720 "). The Anaheim General Plan designates this
Property for Low - Medium Density Residential land uses; and
WHEREAS, the applicant requests a tentative tract map in order to establish a B-
lot residential subdivision to allow for the future development of eight (8) single - family homes
on the Property. The development comprising Tentative Tract Map No. 17700, CUP No. 2013-
05720 and Reclassification No. 2013 -00254 shall be referred to herein as the "Proposed Project ";
and
WHEREAS, on June 30, 2014, the Planning Commission did hold a public
hearing at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim, notice of said public hearing having been
duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60
(Procedures) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code "), to hear and consider evidence for
and against said proposed Tentative Tract Map 17700 and Reclassification No. 2013 -00254 and
to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, by the adoption of a separate resolution concurrently with but prior
in time to this Resolution, this Planning Commission has heretofore found and determined, as the
"lead agency" under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section
21000 et seq.; herein referred to as "CEQA "), that the Proposed Project is within that class of
projects which consist of in -fill development meeting the conditions described in Section 15332
of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations ( "CEQA Guidelines ")and, pursuant to Section
15332 of the CEQA Guidelines, is categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
- 1 - PC2014 -048
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and
study made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports
offered at said hearing with respect to the request to establish a 8 -lot residential subdivision, does
find and determine the following facts:
1. The proposed subdivision, including its design and improvements, and
with the conditions imposed under CUP No. 2013- 05720, is consistent with the Low -
Medium Density Residential land use designation in the Anaheim General Plan and the
development standards contained in the RS -4 (Single Family Residential) zone.
2. The site is physically suitable for the type and size of the proposed
residential subdivision.
3. The design of the subdivision, with the conditions imposed under CUP
No. 2013 - 05720, is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially
and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because no sensitive environmental
habitat has been identified on the site.
4. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to
cause serious public health problems, since any new structures and associated site
improvements will be constructed on the property in compliance with the conditions
imposed under CUP No. 2013 -05720 and other related Code requirements.
5. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not
conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of
property within the proposed subdivision.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report
and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts,
that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly
declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due
consideration of all evidence presented to it.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does
hereby approve Tentative Tract Map No. 17700, contingent upon (1) the adoption by the City
Council of an ordinance reclassifying the Property within the "RS -4" (Single - Family Residential)
Zone in accordance with Reclassification No. 2013 - 00254, (2) the conditions imposed under
CUP No. 2013 - 05720, and (3) the conditions of approval described in Exhibit B attached hereto
and incorporated herein by this reference, which are hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite
to the proposed use of the Property in order to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of
the citizens of the City of Anaheim. Extensions for further time to complete conditions of
approval may be granted in accordance with Section 18.60.170 of the Code. Timing for
compliance with conditions of approval may be amended by the Planning Director upon a
showing of good cause provided (i) equivalent timing is established that satisfies the original
intent and purpose of the condition(s), (ii) the modification complies with the Code, and (iii) the
-2- PC2014 -048
applicant has demonstrated significant progress toward establishment of the use or approved
development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby find
and determine that adoption of this Resolution is expressly predicated upon applicant's
compliance with each and all of the conditions hereinabove set forth. Should any such condition,
or any part thereof, be declared invalid or unenforceable by the final judgment of any court of
competent jurisdiction, then this Resolution, and any approvals herein contained, shall be
deemed null and void.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that approval of this application constitutes
approval of the proposed request only to the extent that it complies with the Anaheim Municipal
Code and any other applicable City, State and Federal regulations. Approval does not include
any action or findings as to compliance or approval of the request regarding any other applicable
ordinance, regulation or requirement.
