ITEM NO. 5
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO. 348 GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2014-00492
SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2014-00065
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2014-00115
RECLASSIFICATION NO. 2014-00262 (DEV2011-00125)
Location: Anaheim Canyon encompasses approximately
2,600 acres in the northern portion of the City of Anaheim, roughly bounded on the north by Orangethorpe Avenue, on the south by the Santa Ana River, on the east by Imperial Highway
(SR-90), and on the west by the Orange Freeway (SR-57).
Request: City-initiated request for the Planning Commission to
recommend City Council approval of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan (ACSP) Project. The ACSP has been prepared to
provide the framework for current and future development in
Anaheim Canyon. The ACSP would replace the development
requirements of the existing zoning on the properties in this area with the requirements of the ACSP. The ACSP is intended to remove regulatory obstacles to the reuse of existing structures
and promote infill development of currently vacant or
underutilized properties. The goal of the ACSP is to encourage sustainable development and create a business environment attractive to a wide variety of industries. Environmental Determination: The Planning Commission
will determine whether to recommend City Council certification
of Environmental Impact Report No. 348 and adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations, Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 312, and the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan
Water Supply Assessment.
Approved a motion for continuance of the item to
October 5, 2015. (Caldwell / Seymour)
