WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act
("CEQA"), in 2000 the City Council approved a mitigated negative declaration (the
"MND") for the South Anaheim Boulevard Overlay Zone (the "Overlay Zone"), and
adopted therewith a Mitigation Monitoring Program which institutes mitigation measures
to be incorporated into all projects undertaken within the Overlay Zone; and
WHEREAS, the development of the Project as required by the Agreement
is in conformance with and within the scope of the Overlay Zone, and therefore (a)
approval of the Agreement does not constitute a substantial change in the previously
analyzed project that will require major revision of the CEQA documentation prepared
therefor due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects, or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (b) approval of the
Agreement does not constitute a change in the circumstances under which the
previously analyzed project is to be undertaken which will require major revisions of the
previous CEQA documentation due to the involvement of new significant environmental
effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects;
(c) there is no new information of substantial importance which was not and could not
have been known at the time the previous CEQA document was certified as complete or
adopted that shows the previously analyzed project will have any significant effects not
discussed in such previous CEQA document, or will have substantially more severe
effects than were discussed in the previous CEQA document; or that mitigation
measures or alternatives which would substantially reduce one or more significant
effects thereof, which were previously found infeasible, would in fact now be feasible;
and (d) there are no mitigation measures or alternatives different from those previously
considered that would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project,
which the proponents refuse to adopt; and
WHEREAS, the mitigation measures adopted in conjunction with the MND
shall be applied to the Agreement to the extent applicable thereto; and
WHEREAS, to the extent the Project will require the processing and
approval of land use entitlements and permits, such land use entitlements will, to the
extent necessary under CEOA and the CEOA Guidelines (14 California Code of
Regulations sections 15000 et seq.), be subject to further CEQA analysis; and
WHEREAS, the Agency has duly considered all terms and conditions of
the proposed Agreement and believes that the redevelopment of the Property pursuant
thereto is in the best interests of the City of Anaheim and the health, safety, and welfare
of its residents, and in accord with the public purposes and provisions of applicable
state and local laws and requirements.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Governing Board of the
Anaheim Redevelopment Agency as follows:

1. The Agency finds and determines that, based upon substantial
evidence provided in the record before it, the consideration for the Agency's sale of the
Property pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement is not less than the fair
reuse value of the Property, at the use and with the covenants, conditions precedent,
conditions subsequent and development costs authorized by the Agreement.
2. The Agency hereby finds and determines that the sale of the
Property pursuant to the Agreement will eliminate blight within the Redevelopment
Project by providing for the proper reuse and redevelopment of a portion of the
Redevelopment Project which was previously declared blighted.
3. The Agency hereby finds and determines that the Agreement is
consistent with the provisions and goals of the Implementation Plan and the
Redevelopment Plan.
4. The Agency hereby finds that the Agreement is within the scope of
one or more projects previously analyzed pursuant to CEQA as set forth above, and
that therefore the approval of the Agreement is exempt from further CEQA analysis
pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section
15162 (14 California Code of Regulations § 15162). The Agency further finds and
resolves that, to the extent required by CEQA, any land use entitlements and permits
required in conjunction with the implementation of the Project shall be subject to further
analysis under CEQA, and all applicable mitigation measures adopted in conjunction
with the MND shall be applied thereto.
5. The Agency hereby approves the Agreement, and the Basic
Concept Drawings (as defined in the Agreement) for the Project attached hereto as
Exhibit uB", and authorizes and directs the Executive Director of the Agency to execute
the Agreement on behalf of the Agency. A copy of the Agreement when executed shall
be placed on file in the office of the Agency Secretary. The Executive Director of the
Agency, or designee, is authorized to implement the Agreement and take all further
actions and execute all escrow documents and other documents which are necessary
or appropriate to carry out the Agreement.
6. The Agency hereby directs Agency staff to prepare and file a Notice
of Exemption pursuant to CEQA which states that the approval of the Agreement is
within the scope of one or more projects previously analyzed pursuant to CEQA, and
therefore is exempt from further CEQA analysis.
7. The Agency Secretary shall certify to the adoption of this
Resolution.
