Jonathan Borrego, Principal Planner, introduced Item No. 9 and stated the subject item could be
considered a clean-up item to the Citywide Generat Plan Update (Genera! Plan Amendment
• No. 2004-00419) which was approved unanimously by the Planning Commission on April 19, 2004 and
approved by City Council on May 25, 2004. As the General Pfan was put into place and implemented,
staff identified errors, omissions and also some clarifications that needed to be made in the General Plan.
The first batch of amendments relate to the Circulation Element of the General Plan and there were some
changes that staff would be recommending to Lincoln Avenue, State College Boulevard and Katella
Avenue, redesignating certain segments of those streets. The second batch of amendments relate to
modifying some language related to future levels of service within the General Plan and also adding a
reference to the Circulation Element by directing people toward the Santa Ana Canyon Road Access
Points Map. The third batch of amendments relate to the Noise Element of the General Plan. He pointed
out that, as a follow-up item to today's request, staff will be bringing forward some changes to the Zoning
Code and Council Policy No. 542 which relate to sound attenuation in order to bring everything up to
consistent standards and also to provide better direction for the development community. He feels they
would be better served to have the noise standards in the Zoning Code as opposed to a Council policy.
