BACKGROUND: The proposed development site is comprised of six separate parcels
comprising 8.3 acres. The parcels are contiguous and together provide street frontage along
Anaheim Boulevard, Ball Road, and Claudina Street. The parcels are located in the “C-G” General
Commercial, and “SABC” South Anaheim Boulevard Corridor Overlay zones and are developed
with several office and retail buildings. The site is designated for General Commercial land uses
by the General Plan. Surrounding land uses include multiple-family residential and commercial
uses to the west of the property, commercial and industrial to the north and east, and industrial
uses to the south.
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to construct a mixed-use project consisting of 223
residential units, including 10 percent of the units as affordable for moderate income households,
and 4,586 square feet of commercial space and a Housing Incentive to allow for a reduced parking
ratio. As a note, the public notice for this item identified a density bonus for the project; however,
as discussed in the General Plan Amendment section below, the project meets the allowable
density for the proposed Mixed Use Mid Density Residential designation, and a density bonus is
not required. The residential buildings would include three-story townhomes with rooftop terraces
and four-story flats. The 187 townhome units would be divided into 24 buildings, while the 36 flat
units would be located in three corner buildings facing the intersection of Anaheim Boulevard and
Ball Road. Two commercial spaces would be located on the ground floor of the flats buildings,
adjacent to the proposed driveway on Ball Road. The townhome residential units range from 835
square feet to 1,796 square feet and would include one, two, and three-bedroom options. The
residential flats would range from 1,419 square feet to 2,597 square feet and would include two,
three, and four-bedroom options.
The project would be accessed by three driveways and one emergency vehicle access lane located
to the south of the property. The main entry point on Ball Road will dissect the two buildings
where the commercial spaces are located. An additional driveway is located on Claudina, while
the third driveway at Anaheim Boulevard will be a signalized access point. The project will include
a total of 385 garage parking spaces for the residential units, with some spaces tandem in design,

and 32 surface parking spaces for guests. Additionally, 20 surface parking spaces are provided for
the retail uses. The development would offer multiple open space opportunities throughout the site
with a dog park, children’s park, and a recreation amenity space. The recreation amenity space
would be centrally located and provide a pool, barbeque grills, and picnic tables.
Landscape Plan
Design: The project would have a modern contemporary architectural design with a variety of
materials including stucco, stone veneer, metal or fiber cement sidings, composition shingles, and
metal railings for the balconies. The color palette would include a mix of whites, greys, and
browns. The first story would include stucco with stone veneer accents and would incorporate
stucco and fiber cement siding in different building projections and architectural elements. All
residential units with upper-story open spaces such as decks, balconies, and rooftop terraces would
include a decorative metal railing. The project architecture and design would incorporate façade
variations to further articulation.
Each of the proposed townhome buildings would provide 4 units to 12 units per building.
Depending on the placement, design, and orientation of the townhome, the front door would either
face a common courtyard, pedestrian walkway, or street. For the flats, the buildings include
between 10 and 16 residential units and will provide the main entrance that will then lead to a
stairway and elevator in order to access each unit. In order to enhance the ground floor and open
spaces area, all mechanical units would be placed on the rooftop or terrace area.

Disposition and Development Agreement: Beginning in 2001, the former Redevelopment Agency
commenced the acquisition and assemblage of the site. Upon the dissolution of the Redevelopment
Agency in 2012, the site was identified in the Long Range Property Management Plan as property
to be retained by the City for development consistent with the former Redevelopment Plan. The
City Council approved an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement on August 27, 2019, with Greenlaw
Development LLC to negotiate the development of a mixed-use, mixed-income project. On
November 10, 2021, the City Council approved an Amended and Restated Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement to allow additional time to complete the negotiations and project entitlements.
Subsequent to land use entitlement consideration, the City Council will consider a Development
and Disposition Agreement for the sale of the property to the developer.
FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS: Following is staff’s analysis and recommendation for each
requested entitlement action:
General Plan Amendment: The Land Use Element of the City’s General Plan is the guide for the
City’s future development. It designates the distribution and location of specific land uses and

Conditional Use Permit, and Tentative Tract Map No. 19140

establishes the permitted densities for each land use designation. The applicant is requesting a
General Plan amendment in order to redesignate the property from the General Commercial land
use to the Mixed-Use Mid Density Residential land use.
Before the Planning Commission may recommend approval of a General Plan amendment, it must
make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist:
1) The proposed amendment maintains the internal consistency of the General Plan;
2) The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health,
safety, convenience or welfare of the City;
3) The proposed amendment would maintain the balance of land uses within the
City; and
4) If the amendment is to the General Plan Land Use Map, the subject property is
physically suitable to accommodate the proposed modification, including but not
limited to, access, physical constraints, topography, provision of utilities, and
compatibility with surrounding land uses.
The Land Use Element describes the Mixed-Use Mid Density Residential designation as providing
for the development of a wide range of residential, commercial, and office projects. Residential
development in this area emphasizes either a stand-alone, mixed-use, townhome, or a vertical
mixed-use pattern. The permitted density range is from zero to 27 dwelling units per gross acre.
The proposed project would have a density of 26.9 dwelling units per acre. The proposed
modification to the General Plan also supports the following General Plan policies intended to
provide a variety of quality infill housing opportunities to address the City’s diverse housing needs
and promote development integrated with surrounding land uses:
o Goal 2.1: Continue to provide a variety of quality housing opportunities to
address the City’s diverse housing needs.
o Goal 3.1: Pursue land uses along major corridors that enhance the City’s image
and stimulate appropriate development at strategic locations.
o Goal 4.1: Promote development that integrates with and minimizes impacts to
surrounding land uses.
o Goal 6.1: Enhance the quality of life and economic vitality in Anaheim through
strategic infill development and revitalization of existing development.
o Goal 7.1: Address the jobs-housing relationship by developing housing near job
centers and transportation facilities.
The project site encompasses underutilized commercial properties, several of which have been
vacant for a number of years, while some of the parcels have been operated as used car dealerships.
Directly to the west and north of the project there are a number of retail and restaurant
establishments, with neighboring multi-family and single-family homes. Staff believes that the
Mixed-Use Mid Density Residential land use designation would be compatible and
complementary to these surrounding land uses because the proposed amendment would maintain
Development Application No. 2021-00123, General Plan Amendment, Reclassification, Conditional Use Permit, Minor
Conditional Use Permit, and Tentative Tract Map No. 19140
October 10, 2022
Page 6 of 11
internal consistency with the General Plan by furthering the Goals identified above. The project
site is located near recently developed properties with similar projects, building design, and
densities. The project would not be detrimental to public interest, health, safety, convenience, or
welfare of the City because the amendment would result in residential and commercial
development opportunities that would be compatible with the existing land uses within the
immediate vicinity of the project; because the project would maintain the balance of land uses
within the City as the amendment would provide quality housing opportunities to address the
City’s diverse housing needs and would be compatible with and complementary to surrounding
land uses; and because the property is physically suitable to accommodate the proposed
amendment, including access, physical constraints, topography, provision of utilities, and
compatibility with surrounding residential land uses. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the
requested General Plan amendment.
Reclassification: The property is zoned “C-G” General Commercial. The project includes a
proposed General Plan amendment to Mixed-Use Mid Density Residential as described above, and
the implementing zone for this General Plan designation would be the Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay
Zone. Accordingly, the applicant proposes to reclassify the property, and staff supports this request
because the proposed Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay zone is consistent with, and would implement the
proposed Mixed-Used Mid land use designation.
Conditional Use Permit: With the proposed Reclassification, the project would be subject to the
Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay zoning requirements. Mixed-use projects require approval of a
conditional use permit in this zone. The project is subject to the development standards of the
underlying zone as well as the Mixed Use (MU) Overlay zone, and the zone permits modification
of the development standards by conditional use permit. The Mixed-Used (MU) Overlay zone
includes standards that promote enhanced design features that are compatible with other residential
and non-residential uses in the surrounding area. Before the Planning Commission may
recommend approval of the conditional use permit for the mixed-use project, it must make a
finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist:
1) That the proposed used us properly one for which a minor conditional use permit or a
conditional use permit is authorized by this code, or is an unlisted use as defined in
subsection .030 (Unlisted Uses Permitted) of Section 18.66.040;
2) That the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the growth and
development of the area in which it is proposed to be located;
3) That the size and shape of the site proposed for the use is adequate to allow the full
development of the proposed use, in a manner not detrimental to either the particular area
or health and safety;
4) The traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden upon the streets
and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area; and
5) The granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed, if any, will not
be detrimental to the peace, health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
The project is consistent with the proposed zoning and general plan designation and the site is
designed consistent with the development standards of the Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay zone. The
mixed-use project will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses as there are commercial and

residential uses in the near vicinity. The property size is adequate to develop the number of
residential units being proposed and provide adequate circulation so as not be detrimental to the
health and safety of the residents and visitors in the area. The City has reviewed the project and
determined that the traffic generated by the use would not impose an undue burden on the streets
in the area. Lastly, the proposed project will not be detrimental to the overall health, safety, and
general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim. The site is designed to be capable of
receiving all City and county services with adequate circulation and access to and from the site.
Minor Conditional Use Permit: The applicant is requesting a coordinated sign program and the
installation of murals throughout the site. A coordinated sign program is required for developments
that provide multiple occupancies of two or more tenants and for any site containing at least 40,000
square feet of land area. The sign locations for the tenant spaces will be visible from Ball Road
and would be located over the main entrance of each tenant space. Murals visible from the public
right-of-way also require a minor conditional use permit. The applicant is proposing to include
murals on the Claudina driveway entrance, specifically on the southern concrete masonry unit
(CMU) wall, a pair of murals at the Ball Road driveway, a mural on the CMU wall located in the
pool area, and an architectural mural on the corner buildings near the corner of the Ball Road and
Anaheim Boulevard intersection. There are two six to eight foot high monument signs proposed
on the property that would provide the name of the mixed-use development. The first monument
sign will be placed at the primary vehicle entrance located on Anaheim Boulevard, while the other
will be located on the northeast corner of the site. Lastly, there is a 15-foot high corner sculpture
being proposed near the corner of Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road. With the exception of the
mural located at the pool area, all other murals, monument signs, and the sculpture would be visible
from the public right-of-way.
The proposed murals depict different color and gradient patterns and would not include any
commercial or advertising signs. The Planning and Building Director has the authority to approve
coordinated sign programs and murals; however, the Director has the authority to refer the sign
applications to the Planning Commission when the signs are proposed in conjunction with a larger
project requiring Planning Commission review. Although the final design of the murals and
monument signs have not been determined, the proposed location for the murals, signs,
monuments, and the sculpture are illustrated in the project plans. The final design and color choices
for the murals and monuments will be submitted for review and approval by the Planning and
Building Department as conditioned in the Minor Conditional Use Permit Resolution.

Parking Requirements: State law and the City’s Housing Incentives Ordinance allow reduced
parking ratios for qualifying developments. The proposed project qualifies for a Housing
Incentive given that it provides 10 percent affordable units.
The applicant requests a reduced parking ratio as the allowable Housing Incentive. The table
below describes the amount of parking required with the Housing Incentive and the amount of
parking proposed.
No. of Bedrooms Units Parking Ratio Total Parking
Spaces
One-Bedroom 55 1 spaces/unit 55
Two-Bedroom 82 2 spaces/unit 164
Three-Bedroom 76 2 spaces/unit 152
Four- Bedroom 10 2.5 spaces/unit 25
Total Parking Required with Housing Incentive 396
Total Parking Provided 417
The applicant proposes 417 parking spaces which is 21 spaces more than required with the Housing
Incentive for the residential portion of the project. The Code requires 19 spaces for the 4,586
square feet of proposed commercial uses, and the applicant is proposing 20 surface spaces.
Affordable Housing: The City Council has adopted a policy emphasizing the importance of
affordable housing, and the applicant has proposed that 10 percent of the housing be affordable to

moderate income households as described previously. Accordingly, the applicant has executed a
Memorandum of Understanding with City staff (Attachment 8), and the project would be
conditioned to require the applicant to enter into a Housing Incentives Agreement with the City.
Tentative Tract Map: Before the Planning Commission may recommend approval of the tentative
tract map, it must make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following
conditions exist:
1) That the proposed subdivision of the Property, including its design and
improvements, is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Anaheim, and more
particularly with the "Mixed-Use Mid Density Residential" land use designation
proposed as part of the General Plan Amendment, now pending;
2) That the proposed subdivision of the Property, as shown on proposed Tentative Tract
Map No. 19140, including their design and improvements, is consistent with the
zoning and development standards of the Mixed-Use (MU) Overlay Zone proposed
as part of the Reclassification request;
3) That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of the Proposed Project;
4) That the design of the subdivision, as shown on proposed Tentative Tract Map No.
19140, is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and
avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat, as no sensitive environmental
habitat has been identified;
5) That the design of the subdivision, as shown on proposed Tentative Tract Map No.
19140 or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health
problems; and
6) That the design of the subdivision, as shown on proposed Tentative Tract Map No.
19140, 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.
A tentative tract map is proposed to create a 1-lot condominium subdivision for the 223 “airspace”
residential condominium units. All common areas, including driveways, recreational areas, paseos
and sidewalks would be owned and maintained by the homeowner’s association. The proposed
density of 26.9 dwelling units per acre is permitted under the Mixed-Use Mid Density Residential
land use designation, which allows up to 27 dwelling units per acre. In addition, the project does
not conflict with easements acquired by the public and complies with all subdivision requirements.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of the tentative tract map request.
Recreational-Leisure Area: The Code requires 44,600 square feet of recreational-leisure space, and
the project includes 87,755 square feet of common recreational-leisure space. The common
recreation areas would include a dog park, children’s playground, open grass area, and pool
building with canopies and barbeque grills. Private areas for the residential units would be
provided based on the design of the unit but would include balconies for the flats and roof-top
terraces for all the of the townhome units.

Environmental Impact Analysis: An Initial Study in support of a Mitigated Negative Declaration
(IS/MND) has been prepared to evaluate the environmental impacts of the proposed project and to
identify necessary mitigation pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA). On August 11, 2022, staff circulated the IS/MND for a 20-day public review period.
Staff posted the IS/MND on the City’s web page, made hard copies available at City Hall and the
Anaheim Public Library, and uploaded it digitally with the Office of Planning and Research’s
CEQAnet database. Staff prepared a Notice of Intent (NOI) to adopt the IS/MND which was mailed
to potentially-affected public agencies and interested parties, as well as property owners and tenants
within a 500-foot radius of the proposed project. Staff also posted the notice at City Hall and with
the OC Clerk-Recorder in addition to publication in The Anaheim Bulletin. The City received three
letters during the comment period. Attachment 7b (Final IS/MND Section 2) includes the received
comment letters and the City’s responses to these letters. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section
15073.5, none of the comments received resulted in the need to recirculate the Draft IS/MND or to
prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
Mitigation measures have been identified in the IS/MND to mitigate project impacts to air quality,
cultural and tribal resources, geology and soils, greenhouse gas emissions, hazards and hazardous
materials, hydrology and water quality, noise, and utilities and service systems. Pursuant to the
requirements of CEQA, staff recommends the adoption of these mitigation measures (MMP No.
384) as conditions of approval in the attached draft resolution for the approval of the proposed
project. With implementation of these measures, the IS/MND concluded that project impacts will be
reduced to levels considered less than significant, and there would be no remaining potentially
significant adverse impacts related to the project.
During the public review period, the property addressed as 1354 South Anaheim Boulevard was
removed from the project, reducing the size and number of units. The reduced site plan, discussed
above, would result in either unchanged or less impactful findings and conclusions compared to the
analyses presented in the Draft IS/MND. Attachment 7b (Final IS/MND Section 3) includes a
summary of the minor modifications to and clarifications on the Draft IS/MND for consistency with
the reduced site plan. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.5, recirculation of the Draft
IS/MND prior to adoption is not required.
CONCLUSION: Staff has carefully considered the proposed project and believes that it is designed
in a manner that will provide a quality living environment for its future residents and is compatible
with the surrounding land uses. In addition, the proposed project meets the goals of the General
Plan to continue to provide a variety of quality housing opportunities to address the City’s diverse
housing needs. Staff recommends approval of the proposed project.

recommends that the City Council also find and determine as follows:
1. That the Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the
requirements of CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines, and the City's CEQA Procedures and, together with
MMRP No. 384, serves as the appropriate environmental documentation for the Proposed Project.
2. That it has carefully reviewed and considered the information contained in the
Mitigated Negative Declaration (including the Initial Study and any comments received during the
public review period) prior to acting upon the Proposed Project.
3. Based upon the record before it (including the Initial Study and any comments
received), the Proposed Project will have a less than significant impacts upon the environment
with the implementation of the mitigation measures contained in MMRP No. 384 and that the
Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the City
Council; and
4. Pursuant to the above findings, the Planning Commission recommends the City
Council determine that the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Plan No.
384, are the appropriate environmental documentation for the Proposed Project and hereby
recommends that the City Council approve and adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
Mitigation Monitoring Plan No. 384 for the Proposed Project.

PREFACE
Section 21081.6 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines Section
15097 requires a Lead Agency to adopt a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP)
whenever it adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) in conjunction with a project approval.
The purpose of the MMRP is to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures occurs during
project implementation.
The Draft Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (Draft IS/MND) prepared for the Anaheim
Ball Mixed Use Project concluded that project implementation could result in potentially significant
effects on the environment and mitigation measures were incorporated into the proposed project or
are required as a condition of project approval that would reduce these potential impacts to a less
than significant level. This MMRP documents how and when the mitigation measures adopted by
the lead agency will be implemented and confirms that potential environmental impacts are reduced
to less than significant levels as identified in the MND.
This document does not discuss those subjects that the environmental analysis demonstrates would
result in less than significant impacts and for which no mitigation was proposed or necessary.

tribe and the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation Native
American tribe in retention of Native American Monitors (Tribal
Monitors) and a copy of the executed contract shall be submitted to the
City of Anaheim Planning and Building Department. The Tribal Monitors
shall only be present on-site during the construction phases that involve
ground-disturbing activities within disturbed and undisturbed sediments.
Ground disturbing activities may include, but are not limited to, potholing
or auguring, grubbing, tree removals, boring, grading, excavation,
drilling, and trenching, within the project site. The Tribal Monitors shall
complete daily monitoring logs that shall provide descriptions of the
day’s activities, including construction activities, locations, soil, and any
cultural materials identified. The on-site monitoring shall end when the
project site grading and excavation activities are completed, or when the
Tribal Representatives and monitors have indicated that the Project site
has a low potential for impacting archaeological or tribal cultural
resources.
Upon discovery of any archaeological or tribal cultural resources,
construction activities shall cease in the immediate vicinity of the find
until the find can be assessed. All archaeological and/or tribal cultural
resources unearthed by project construction activities shall be evaluated
by the qualified archaeologist and Tribal monitors. If the resources are
Native American in origin, the Tribal Representative shall coordinate with
the Owner/Developer regarding treatment and curation of these resources.
Typically, the Tribes will request reburial or preservation for educational
purposes. Work may continue on other parts of the project site while
evaluation and, if necessary, mitigation takes place (CEQA Guidelines
Section 15064.5[f]). If a resource is determined by the qualified
archaeologist to constitute a “historical resource” or “unique
archaeological resource,” time allotment and funding sufficient to allow
for implementation of avoidance measures, or appropriate mitigation,
shall be available. The treatment plan established for the resources shall
be in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f) for historical
resources and PRC Sections 21083.2(b) for unique archaeological
resources. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred manner
of treatment. If preservation in place is not feasible, treatment shall
include implementation of archaeological data recovery excavations to
remove the resource along with subsequent laboratory processing and
analysis. Any historic archaeological material that is not Native American
in origin shall be curated at a public, non-profit institution with a research
interest in the materials, such as the Natural History Museum of Los

Angeles County, the Copper Center, or the Fowler Museum, if such an
institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution accepts the
archaeological material, it shall be offered to a local school or historical
society in the area for educational purposes.
In the event that human remains are uncovered during ground disturbing
activities, the Owner/Developer shall cease ground disturbing activities and
contact the County coroner, Tribal Monitors, and archaeologist to inform
of the discovery. The Owner/Developer shall coordinate and consult with
the county coroner, Tribal Monitors and archaeologist for advisory on the
matter, protocol, and any applicable mitigating requirements. Additionally,
If the remains are determined to be of Native American origin, the most
likely descendent (MLD), as the Native American Heritage Commission
(NAHC) shall be contacted by the Owner/Developer to determine proper
treatment and disposition of the remains. To protect the area in which the
Native American human remains are present, development activity shall
cease until consultation with the MLD is complete regarding
recommendations pursuant to PRC Section 5097.98. Discovery of human
remains shall also follow CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5; PRC Section
7050.5 and PRC Section 5097.98.

14 MM GHG-1: Prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy for the
proposed project, the Owner/Developer shall provide the City with
documentation, to the City’s satisfaction, that demonstrates the proposed
project would achieve GHG emission reductions equivalent to no less
than 812 metric tons (MT) of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year
for 30 years, or 24,360 MT CO2e total, based on current estimates of the
proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory contained in this
analysis. GHG emission reductions may be achieved through any
combination of the following measures or other measures approved by the
City:
• Commit to purchasing 100-percent renewable electricity.
• Install on-site solar panels that provide electricity beyond the
minimum requirements according to the current version of Title
24.
• Install solar water heaters or other renewable energy technologies.
• Install solar on-site charging infrastructure consistent with the Tier
2 standards contained in CALGreen Section A4.106.6.8.
• Design and construct all residences to be all-electric, precluding
the installation of natural gas plumbing for space and water
heating and appliance operation.
• Purchase of voluntary carbon credits from a verified GHG
emissions credit broker in an account sufficient to offset GHG
emissions of no less than 812 MT CO2e per year for 30 years, or
24,360 MT CO2e total.
Should the Owner/Developer elect to purchase carbon credits, all
purchased carbon credits shall be pursuant to the following performance
standards and requirements: (i) the carbon credits shall achieve real,
permanent, quantifiable, verifiable, enforceable, and additional reductions
as set forth in California Health and Safety Code Sections 38562(d)(1)
and (d)(2). Such credits shall be based on protocols consistent with the
criteria set forth by Section 95972, subdivision (a), of Title 17 of the
California Code of Regulations, as determined by an expert qualified to
make such a determination, and shall not include credits originating
outside of California, except to the extent that the quality of the credits,
and their sufficiency under the standards set forth herein, can be verified
by an expert qualified to make such a determination. In no event shall
credits from outside the United States be used. Carbon credits must be
purchased through one of the following: (i) a California Air Resources
Board (ARB) approved registry, such as the Climate Action Reserve, the
American Carbon Registry, or Verra (formerly known as the Verified
Carbon Standard); and (ii) any registry approved by the ARB to act as a

Juaneño Band of Mission Indians Acjachemen Nation Native American
tribe and the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation Native
American tribe in retention of Native American Monitors (Tribal
Monitors) and a copy of the executed contract shall be submitted to the
City of Anaheim Planning and Building Department. The Tribal Monitors
shall only be present on-site during the construction phases that involve
ground-disturbing activities within disturbed and undisturbed sediments.
Ground disturbing activities may include, but are not limited to, potholing
or auguring, grubbing, tree removals, boring, grading, excavation,
drilling, and trenching, within the project site. The Tribal Monitors shall
complete daily monitoring logs that shall provide descriptions of the
day’s activities, including construction activities, locations, soil, and any
cultural materials identified. The on-site monitoring shall end when the
project site grading and excavation activities are completed, or when the
Tribal Representatives and monitors have indicated that the Project site
has a low potential for impacting archaeological or tribal cultural
resources.

by the qualified archaeologist and Tribal monitors. If the resources are
Native American in origin, the Tribal Representative shall coordinate with
the Owner/Developer regarding treatment and curation of these resources.
Typically, the Tribes will request reburial or preservation for educational
purposes. Work may continue on other parts of the project site while
evaluation and, if necessary, mitigation takes place (CEQA Guidelines
Section 15064.5[f]). If a resource is determined by the qualified
archaeologist to constitute a “historical resource” or “unique
archaeological resource,” time allotment and funding sufficient to allow
for implementation of avoidance measures, or appropriate mitigation,
shall be available. The treatment plan established for the resources shall
be in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f) for historical
resources and PRC Sections 21083.2(b) for unique archaeological
resources. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred manner
of treatment. If preservation in place is not feasible, treatment shall
include implementation of archaeological data recovery excavations to
remove the resource along with subsequent laboratory processing and
analysis. Any historic archaeological material that is not Native American
in origin shall be curated at a public, non-profit institution with a research
interest in the materials, such as the Natural History Museum of Los
Angeles County, the Copper Center, or the Fowler Museum, if such an
institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution accepts the
archaeological material, it shall be offered to a local school or historical
society in the area for educational purposes.
In the event that human remains are uncovered during ground disturbing
activities, the Owner/Developer shall cease ground disturbing activities and
contact the County coroner, Tribal Monitors, and archaeologist to inform
of the discovery. The Owner/Developer shall coordinate and consult with
the county coroner, Tribal Monitors and archaeologist for advisory on the
matter, protocol, and any applicable mitigating requirements. Additionally,
If the remains are determined to be of Native American origin, the most
likely descendent (MLD), as the Native American Heritage Commission
(NAHC) shall be contacted by the Owner/Developer to determine proper
treatment and disposition of the remains. To protect the area in which the
Native American human remains are present, development activity shall
cease until consultation with the MLD is complete regarding
recommendations pursuant to PRC Section 5097.98. Discovery of human
remains shall also follow CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5; PRC Section
7050.5 and PRC Section 5097.98.

4 MM GHG-1: Prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy for the
proposed project, the Owner/Developer shall provide the City with
documentation, to the City’s satisfaction, that demonstrates the proposed
project would achieve GHG emission reductions equivalent to no less
than 1,080 metric tons (MT) of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per year
for 30 years, or 32,000 MT CO2e total, based on current estimates of the
proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory contained in this
analysis. GHG emission reductions may be achieved through any
combination of the following measures or other measures approved by the
City:
• Commit to purchasing 100-percent renewable electricity.
• Install on-site solar panels that provide electricity beyond the
minimum requirements according to the current version of Title
24.
• Install solar water heaters or other renewable energy technologies.
• Install solar on-site charging infrastructure consistent with the Tier
2 standards contained in CALGreen Section A4.106.6.8.
• Design and construct all residences to be all-electric, precluding
the installation of natural gas plumbing for space and water
heating and appliance operation.
• Purchase of voluntary carbon credits from a verified GHG
emissions credit broker in an account sufficient to offset GHG
emissions of no less than 1,080 MT CO2e per year for 30 years, or
32,400 MT CO2e total.
Should the Owner/Developer elect to purchase carbon credits, all
purchased carbon credits shall be pursuant to the following performance
standards and requirements: (i) the carbon credits shall achieve real,
permanent, quantifiable, verifiable, enforceable, and additional reductions
as set forth in California Health and Safety Code Sections 38562(d)(1)
and (d)(2). Such credits shall be based on protocols consistent with the

criteria set forth by Section 95972, subdivision (a), of Title 17 of the
California Code of Regulations, as determined by an expert qualified to
make such a determination, and shall not include credits originating
outside of California, except to the extent that the quality of the credits,
and their sufficiency under the standards set forth herein, can be verified
by an expert qualified to make such a determination. In no event shall
credits from outside the United States be used. Carbon credits must be
purchased through one of the following: (i) a California Air Resources
Board (ARB) approved registry, such as the Climate Action Reserve, the
American Carbon Registry, or Verra (formerly known as the Verified
Carbon Standard); and (ii) any registry approved by the ARB to act as a
registry under the California Cap-and-Trade Program; or (iii) the
California Air Pollution Control Officers Association’s (CAPCOA)
Greenhouse Gas Reduction Exchange (GHG Rx) or any program adopted
or approved by the South Coast Air Quality Management District
(SCAQMD).
As an alternative to purchasing carbon credits, the Owner/Developer may
elect to contribute to carbon offsets through a local or regional program or
institution in an amount sufficient to offset the proposed project’s GHG
emissions by the previously identified amounts. Contributions to a local or
regional program or institution may include, but are not limited to, funding
for renewable energy infrastructure or technologies beyond what would
otherwise be required for compliance with existing laws and regulations.
Carbon offsets, expressed in an amount of MT CO2e per year, realized due
to contributions made by the Owner/Developer for this purpose shall
reduce the required MT CO2e reductions contained in this mitigation by an
equal amount and be pursuant to the following performance standards and
requirements: (i) the carbon offsets shall achieve real, permanent,
quantifiable, verifiable, and enforceable reductions as set forth in
California Health and Safety Code Sections 38562(d)(1) and (d)(2); and (ii)
one carbon offset shall mean the past reduction or sequestration of one MT
CO2e that is “not otherwise required” (CEQA Guidelines § 15126.4(c)(3)).

recommendations to the Lead Agency on the measures that shall be
implemented to protect the discovered resources, including but not
limited to excavation of the finds and evaluation of the finds in
accordance with Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines. Potentially
significant cultural resources consist of but are not limited to stone, bone,
fossils, wood, or shell artifacts or features, including hearths, structural
remains, or historic dumpsites. Any previously undiscovered resources
found during construction within the project area shall be recorded on
appropriate California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) forms
and evaluated for significance in terms of CEQA criteria.
If the resources are determined to be unique historic resources as defined
under Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines, mitigation measures
shall be identified by the Archaeological Monitor and recommended to
the Lead Agency. Appropriate mitigation measures for significant
resources shall include avoidance or capping, incorporation of the site in
green space, parks, or open space, or data recovery excavations of the
finds.
No further grading shall occur in the area of the discovery until the Lead
Agency approves the measures to protect these resources. Any
archaeological artifacts recovered as a result of mitigation shall be
donated to a qualified scientific institution approved by the Lead Agency
where they would be afforded long-term preservation to allow future
scientific study.
19 MM GEO-2: In the event that any significant paleontological resources
(i.e., bones, teeth, or unusually abundant and well-preserved invertebrates
or plants) be unearthed, the construction crew shall not attempt to remove
them. All work in the immediate vicinity of the discovery shall be
diverted at least 15 feet until a professional Paleontologist assesses the
find and, if deemed appropriate, salvages it in a timely manner. All
recovered fossils shall be deposited in an appropriate repository, where
they shall be properly curated and made accessible for future study.

SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 - Purpose
The purpose of this Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (Draft IS/MND) is to identify
any potential environmental impacts that would result from implementation of the proposed
Anaheim Ball Mixed Use Project (proposed project) in the City of Anaheim, California. Pursuant to
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15367, the City of Anaheim has
discretionary authority over the proposed project and is the Lead Agency in the preparation of this
Draft IS/MND and any additional environmental documentation required for the proposed project.
This document is intended to apply to the listed project approvals, as well as to any other approvals
that may be necessary or desirable to implement the proposed project.
The remainder of this section provides a brief description of the project location and the primary
project characteristics. Section 2 includes an environmental checklist that provides an overview of
the potential impacts that may result from project implementation, elaborates on the information
contained in the environmental checklist, and provides justification for each checklist response; and
Section 3 contains the List of Preparers.
1.2 - Project Location
The project site is located at 1200–1354 South Anaheim Boulevard, 200 East Ball Road, and 1207
South Claudina Street, generally, the southeast corner of the intersection of South Anaheim
Boulevard and East Ball Road in the City of Anaheim, in Orange County, California (Exhibit 1). The
maximum 10.1-acre project site consists of up to seven contiguous parcels, Assessor’s Parcel
Numbers (APNs) 082-461-23, -24, -25, -31, -34, -35, and -39. The project site is located 0.44 mile east
of Interstate 5 (I-5), the Santa Ana Freeway. As shown in Exhibit 2, the project site is in the
western/central portion of the City. Regional access to the project site would be from I-5 via South
Harbor Boulevard and Katella Avenue exits.
1.3 - Environmental Setting
Land Uses and Zoning
The project site currently developed with approximately 85,400 square feet of existing commercial
and industrial buildings as well as associated parking lots and landscaping. The existing commercial
and industrial buildings include a transportation service, auto parts store, tire shop, automobile
service centers, furniture wholesaler, and vacant lots. The General Plan currently designates the
project site for General Commercial land use (Exhibit 3).1 The proposed project is requesting a
General Plan Amendment (GPA) to change the land use designation from General Commercial to
Mixed-Use Medium (36 dwelling units per acre [du/ac]). The Mixed-Use Medium land use
designation is intended to allow flexibility for parcels that could transition from strip commercial
uses to residential or a mix of residential, commercial, and office development. This designation

allows residential uses in either a stand-alone or mixed-use configuration at a density of up to 36
du/ac, and emphasizes quality and offers a variety of amenities. A mix of commercial uses would
continue to allow for a range of community-serving retail, office, and service commercial uses. The
nonresidential component of mixed-use development is permitted at a maximum floor area ratio
(FAR) of 0.35. The implementing zones for the Mixed-Use Medium land use designation are the
Downtown Mixed-Use Overlay; the Platinum Triangle Mixed-Use Overlay; and, for areas outside of
the Platinum Triangle or Downtown areas (like the proposed project site), the Mixed-Use Overlay
Zone.2 The proposed project would be subject to the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone, as discussed below.
The majority of the project site is currently within the General Commercial (C-G) Zone, with the
exception of APN 082-461-39, which is within the Industrial Zone (Exhibit 4). The proposed project
would require a Reclassification (RCL) to change the zoning on APN 082-461-39 from the Industrial
Zone to the C-G Zone and to add the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone to all parcels within the project site so
that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone.
The C-G Zone implements the General Commercial land use designation in the General Plan.3 The
intent of the C-G Zone is to allow a variety of land uses. Areas designated as C-G do not necessarily
serve the adjacent neighborhood or surrounding clusters of neighborhoods. In addition to some of
the uses described in the commercial center zones, they typically include highway-serving uses such
as fast food restaurants, auto-oriented uses such as tire stores and auto parts stores, and stand-
alone retail uses.
The purpose of the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone is to implement the Mixed-Use Mid Density, Mixed-Use
Medium Density, and Mixed-Use High Density General Plan Land Use Designations; and to define
allowable land uses and property development standards, including intensity of development for
mixed-use areas in order to produce healthy, safe, and attractive neighborhoods within the City of
Anaheim, consistent with the policy direction in the Anaheim General Plan.4
Surrounding Land Uses
North East Ball Road, commercial and retail buildings, and Brownson Technical School in the
General Commercial land use designation.
South Administrative office, commercial and industrial buildings in the General Commercial land
use designation.
East Commercial and industrial buildings in the General Commercial and Industrial land use
designations.
West South Anaheim Boulevard, multi-family residential uses, fast food restaurants, and
commercial buildings in the Medium Density Residential and General Commercial land use
designation.

1.4 - Project Description
The applicant, Greenlaw Partners, is proposing to demolish the existing commercial and industrial
buildings (approximately 85,400 square feet) and to develop a 4,500-square-foot retail building and
up to 249 for-sale residential flats and townhomes. The retail building would be located on the
ground floor of the mixed-use building(s) along the Ball Road entrance to the project site, as shown
in Exhibit 5. The proposed project would also include a recreational amenity area with outdoor
functions. The residential component of the proposed project would consist of two residential
building types as described below:
1. Flats–The flats would consist of 36 residential units in three 4-story buildings located at the
northwest corner of the project site. Buildings would contain a minimum of 10 residential
units and a maximum of 16 residential units. Residential units would consist of nine 2-
bedroom flats, 17 3-bedroom flats, and 10 4-bedroom flats and would include Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant residential units. Each flat would include a minimum of
100 square feet of balcony space.
2. Townhomes–The Townhomes would consist of 213 residential units in 30 three-story
buildings. Each building would contain a minimum of four residential units and a maximum of
12 residential units. Residential units would consist of 62 1-bedroom residential units, 83 2-
bedroom residential units, and 68 3-bedroom residential units, and would include ADA-
compliant residential units. Each townhome unit would include a minimum of 70 square feet
of balcony space.
The proposed project would provide private roadways and parking, pedestrian walkways, common
space and amenity areas throughout the project site, landscaping, and a recreational amenity area in
the center of the project site. Density on the project site would be 24.57 du/ac, which would not
exceed the maximum density of the Mixed-Use Medium land use designation of 36 du/ac. The
proposed project would provide a trash enclosure on the north side of the project site near the
entrance at East Ball Road.
An Affordable Housing component is proposed with this development. A total of 10 percent of the
for-sale townhomes would be sold to moderate-income buyers. The applicant will enter into a
density bonus housing agreement with the City to ensure compliance with the Density Bonus
Ordinance.
Parking and Circulation
Vehicles would access the project site via four driveways, including one entry from East Ball Road at
the north side of the project site, two entries from South Anaheim Boulevard on the west side of the
project site, and one entry from South Claudina Street on the northeast side of the project site. The
driveways on East Ball Road and South Anaheim Boulevard would be restricted to right-in-right-out
access only. An internal private roadway system would provide two-way access to the surface
parking lots and to the parking garages. The proposed project would have 524 on-site parking
spaces, consisting of 430 garage spaces, 74 surface parking spaces, and 19 retail spaces. The
proposed parking spaces would meet the code requirement as shown in Table 1 and Table 2,

respectively. Parking would include six ADA-accessible surface parking spaces. Pedestrians would
circulate within the proposed project via internal pedestrian walkways and sidewalks located
throughout the site. Table 1 compares the required and provided parking for the residential units,
and Table 2 shows the types of parking spaces that would be provided as part of the proposed
project.

A minimum of 10 percent of the total units proposed would be Affordable Housing units and
therefore the proposed project has been designed to meet the Reduced Parking Ratios set forth in
Anaheim Municipal Code 18.52.100.
Open Space and Landscaping
The proposed project incorporates amenities including open space passive park areas, private patios,
common amenity areas, and various landscaping. The required recreation-leisure area for 249 units
is 49,800 square feet.5 The proposed project would provide 118,955 square feet of total qualified
recreation-leisure area, including 101,595 square feet of common area and 17,360 square feet of
private areas.
5 200 square feet required per unit.

Infrastructure and Utilities
The site is currently served by existing utilities. The proposed project would connect to existing
water and sanitary lines and would include the installation of stormwater management systems on-
site. To provide a conservative analysis, this document analyzes the proposed demand for services as
100 percent net new, without subtracting out the demand currently generated by existing uses.
Construction
The applicant anticipates that construction of the proposed project would begin in March 2023, and
the duration of construction would last approximately 22 months. Construction activities would
include demolition of the existing paved surfaces and structures, site preparation, grading, building
construction, architectural coatings, and paving. Construction of the proposed project would require
no imported soil/fill material because the site would be balanced.
1.5 - Required Discretionary Approvals
As mentioned previously, the City of Anaheim has discretionary authority over the proposed project
and is the CEQA Lead Agency for the preparation of this Draft IS/MND. In order to implement the
project, the proposed project would need the following permits/approvals:
• Density Bonus Housing Agreement to ensure compliance with the Density Bonus Ordinance.
• General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from Commercial to Mixed-Use
Medium (36 du/ac).
• Reclassification to change the zoning on APN 082-461-39 from the Industrial Zone to General
Commercial (CG) and add the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone to all parcels within the project site so
that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone.
• Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to permit a mixed-use project that would include development
of up to 249 unit residential flats and townhomes, and 4,500 square feet of retail.
• Subdivision Tract Map (SUBTM) to allow the sale of residential units for condominium
purposes.
1.6 - Intended Uses of this Document
This Draft IS/MND has been prepared to determine the appropriate scope and level of detail
required in completing the environmental analysis for the proposed project. This document will also
serve as a basis for soliciting comments and input from members of the public and public agencies
regarding the proposed project. The Draft IS/MND will be circulated for a minimum of 20 days,
during which comments concerning the analysis contained in the Draft IS/MND should be sent to:

Except as provided in Public Resources Code Section 21099, would the project:
a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic

b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including,
but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and
historic building within a State Scenic Highway?
c) In non-urbanized areas, substantially degrade the
existing visual character or quality of public views

scenic quality?
d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare
which would adversely affect day or nighttime
views in the area?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The City of Anaheim General Plan Green Element specifies that natural slopes located in the City’s
Hill and Canyon Area are considered the primary aesthetic resource in the City.6 Additional scenic
amenities such as golf courses and the Santa Ana River also provide visual relief from the built
environment and are important visual amenities and landmarks.
Would the project:
a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista?
No impact. As shown in Exhibit 2, the project site is in the western/central portion of the City,
approximately 8 miles west of the City’s Hill and Canyon Area and would not be located within these
areas. Furthermore, the nearest golf course is Dad Miller Golf Course, located approximately 5 miles
northwest of the project site and would not impede on its visual relief from the built environment.
General Plan Green Element Goal 2.1 aims to preserve views of ridgelines, natural open space and
other scenic vistas wherever possible. The project site is relatively flat and is developed with
commercial and industrial uses. Surrounding uses include other commercial, industrial, and

residential uses. Because of intervening development, there are no scenic views of the natural slopes
or the golf course from the project site or the surrounding area. Therefore, the proposed project
would not affect public views of these scenic vistas. No impact would occur.
b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings,
and historic building within a State Scenic Highway?
No impact. According to the City of Anaheim General Plan Figure C-3, Scenic Highways, State Route
(SR) 55 and SR-91 are designated scenic highways from the City boundary to Weir Canyon Road.7 SR-
91 from Weir Canyon Road to the eastern City boundary is designated an eligible scenic highway.
Santa Ana Canyon Road and Weir Canyon Road are designated as scenic expressways. However, the
project site is not located along any designated or eligible scenic highway or expressways. The
project site is a developed with commercial and industrial uses, and there are no scenic resources
such as trees of significance, rock outcroppings, or historic buildings on-site. Additionally, unique
visual resources or historic structures do not characterize the project site and surrounding area, and,
therefore, no impact would occur to scenic or historic resources.
c) In non-urbanized areas, substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of public
views of the site and its surroundings? (Public views are those that are experienced from publicly
accessible vantage point). If the project is in an urbanized area, would the project conflict with
applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic quality?
No impact. The project site is located in an urbanized area. As such, this analysis will discuss whether
the proposed project would conflict with applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic
quality. The City of Anaheim General Plan and Zoning Ordinance defines the permitted land uses and
the corresponding development standards within the City. The project site is currently designated
General Commercial and zoned C-G and Industrial. Currently, residential mixed-use development is
not permitted within the C-G and Industrial Zones or the Commercial General land use designation.
Thus, the project applicant is seeking a GPA to amend the land use designation from General
Commercial to Mixed-Use Medium. The proposed project would also require an RCL to rezone APN
082-461-39 from Industrial to C-G, and to add the Mixed Use (MU) Overlay Zone to all parcels within
the project site, so that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and the MU Overlay
Zone.
The proposed project would comply with all Anaheim Municipal Code requirements related to scenic
quality as part of the design review process, to ensure the project design is consistent with adopted
design guidelines. With the GPA and RCL, the proposed project would not conflict with applicable
zoning and other regulations pertaining to scenic quality, and no impacts would occur.
d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime
views in the area?
Less than significant impact. The project site is located in an urbanized area with existing light
sources, which include streetlights, lighting on the interiors and exteriors of existing and surrounding

buildings, as well as vehicle headlights and traffic signals. No nighttime construction is proposed, and
construction activities would be subject to Anaheim Municipal Code Section 6.70.010, which
restricts construction activities to between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Therefore, the
proposed project would not require construction lighting, except security and safety lighting.
The proposed project would generate lighting from two primary sources: lighting from building
interiors that would pass through windows, and lighting from exterior sources (e.g., street lighting,
parking area lighting, building illumination, security lighting, and landscape lighting). This proposed
lighting is typical of residential and commercial developments. The proposed development would
replace current existing sources of light and glare with new high-quality development and lighting.
The proposed project’s outdoor parking area lighting would be subject to compliance with Anaheim
Municipal Code Section 18.42.090.030, which lists requirements related to lighting of parking areas
including limiting lighting adjacent to residential areas.8 In addition, the City’s Planning and Building
Department would review any proposed lighting to ensure conformance with the California Building
Standards Code (CBC), Title 24, as well as the California Green Building Standard Code (CALGreen)
(California Code of Regulations [CCR] Title 24, Part 11), such that only the minimum amount of
lighting is used and no light spillage occurs. Although the proposed project would replace existing
structures with new buildings that would introduce new light sources, the surrounding area is urban
and already illuminated, and the proposed lighting conditions would be similar to that currently used
surrounding the project site and would also incorporate the Anaheim Municipal Code, CBC, and
CALGreen, which would not cause adverse effects; therefore, a less than significant impact would
occur and no mitigation is required.
Sunlight or artificial light reflecting from finished surfaces such as window glass or other reflective
materials can cause reflected light (glare). Buildings constructed of highly reflective materials from
which the sun reflects at a low angle commonly cause adverse glare. The proposed project does not
propose use of materials known to cause glare, such as mirrored/reflective glass. Therefore, impacts
would be less than significant.
Mitigation Measures
No mitigation required.

2.2 Agriculture and Forestry Resources
In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead
agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997)
prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on
agriculture and farmland. In determining whether impacts to forest resources, including timberland,
are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to information compiled by the
California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection regarding the State’s inventory of forest land,
including the Forest and Range Assessment Project and the Forest Legacy Assessment project; and
forest carbon measurement methodology provided in Forest Protocols adopted by the California Air
Resources Board.
Would the project:
a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland,
or Farmland of Statewide Importance
(Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared
pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and
Monitoring Program of the California
Resources Agency, to nonagricultural use?
b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural
use, or a Williamson Act contract?
c) Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause
rezoning of, forest land (as defined in Public
Resources Code Section 12220(g)),
timberland (as defined by Public Resources
Code Section 4526), or timberland zoned
Timberland Production (as defined by
Government Code Section 51104(g))?
d) Result in the loss of forest land or conversion
of forest land to non-forest use?
e) Involve other changes in the existing
environment which, due to their location or
nature, could result in conversion of
Farmland, to nonagricultural use or
conversion of forest land to non-forest use?
Environmental Evaluation
In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead

Setting
The project site is currently developed with commercial and industrial uses. Both the project site and
surrounding area are located in a developed urbanized area. The California Department of
Conservation Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program (FMMP) designates the project site as
Urban and Built-Up Land, which is defined as land developed at a density of at least one dwelling
unit (du) per 1.5 acres, or approximately six structures to a 10.1-acre parcel.9 The project site does
not contain any Farmland or forest land.
Would the project:
a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as
shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the
California Resources Agency, to nonagricultural use?
No impact. There is no Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, Farmland of Statewide Importance, or
Farmland of Local Importance on the project site or in its vicinity. In addition, the proposed project
would not convert any farmland to nonagricultural use. Therefore, no impact would occur.
b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act Contract?
No impact. The project site is not under a Williamson Act Contract and is not zoned for agricultural
uses. Therefore, no impact would occur.
c) Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause rezoning of, forest land (as defined in Public Resources
Code Section 12220(g)), timberland (as defined by Public Resources Code Section 4526), or
timberland zoned Timberland Production (as defined by Government Code Section 51104(g))?
No impact. The City of Anaheim does not contain any land that is zoned for forest land or
timberland. The project site is within the C-G and Industrial Zones and is currently occupied with
commercial and industrial uses; therefore, there would be no impact to land zoned for forest or
timberland.
d) Result in the loss of forest land or conversion of forest land to non-forest use?
No impact. As discussed above, the project site does not contain forest land, timberland, or
timberland zoned for production. The proposed project would not result in the loss of forest land or
conversion of forest land to non-forest uses. Therefore, there would be no impact.

No impact. The project site and surrounding area do not contain Farmland or forest land. Therefore,
project implementation would not result in the conversion of Farmland or forest land from
agricultural or timberland uses to nonagricultural or non-forest land uses. No impact would occur,
and no mitigation is required.

Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management
district or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations.
Setting
The proposed project is located in the City of Anaheim, California, situated in the South Coast Air
Basin (SoCAB), which is under the jurisdiction of South Coast Air Quality Management District
(SCAQMD). To the west of SoCAB is the Pacific Ocean. To the north and east of the basin are the San
Gabriel, San Bernardino, and San Jacinto mountains, while the southern limit of the basin is the San
Diego County line. The SoCAB consists of Orange County, all of Los Angeles County except for the
Antelope Valley, the non-desert portion of western San Bernardino County, and the western portions
of Riverside County. Air quality in the SoCAB is impacted by dominant airflows, topography,
atmospheric inversions, location, season, and time of day.
Air quality is measured by the ambient concentrations of seven pollutants that have been identified
by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) due to their potentially harmful effects
on public health and the environment. These “criteria air pollutants” include carbon monoxide (CO),
ground-level ozone (O 3 ), nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ), sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), particulate matter 10 microns
or less in diameter (PM 10 ), particulate matter 2.5 microns or less in diameter (PM 2.5 ), and lead. The
following descriptions of each criteria air pollutant and their health effects are based on information
provided by the EPA and SCAQMD.10

• Ozone is a gas that is formed when reactive organic gases (ROG) and nitrogen oxides (NO X)—
both byproducts of internal combustion engine exhaust—undergo slow photochemical
reactions in the presence of sunlight. Ozone concentrations are generally highest during the
summer months when direct sunlight, light wind, and warm temperature conditions are
conducive to its formation. Its effects can include the following: irritate respiratory system;
reduce lung function; cause breathing pattern changes; reduce breathing capacity; inflame
and damage cells that line the lungs; make lungs more susceptible to infection; aggravate
asthma; aggravate other chronic lung diseases; cause permanent lung damage; cause some
immunological changes; increase mortality risk; and cause vegetation and property damage.
• CO is a colorless, odorless gas produced by the incomplete combustion of fuels. CO
concentrations tend to be the highest during winter mornings, with little to no wind, when
surface-based inversions trap the pollutant at ground levels. Because CO is emitted directly
from internal combustion engines—unlike ozone—and motor vehicles operating at slow
speeds are the primary source of CO in the SoCAB, the highest ambient CO concentrations are
generally found near congested transportation corridors and intersections. Potential health
effects from CO ranges depending on exposure: slight headaches; nausea; aggravation of
angina pectoris (chest pain) and other aspects of coronary heart disease; decreased exercise
tolerance in persons with peripheral vascular disease and lung disease; impairment of central
nervous system functions; possible increased risk to fetuses; and death.
• NO 2 is primarily a byproduct of fossil fuel combustion and is therefore emitted by
automobiles, power plants, and industrial facilities. The principal form of nitrogen oxide
produced by fossil fuel combustion is nitric oxide (NO), which reacts quickly to form NO 2 ,
creating the mixture of NO and NO 2 commonly called NO X . NO 2 absorbs blue light and results
in reduced visibility and a brownish-red cast to the atmosphere. NO 2 also contributes to the
formation of PM 10 . Nitrogen oxides irritate the nose and throat and increase susceptibility to
respiratory infections, especially in people with asthma. Longer exposures to elevated
concentrations of NO 2 may even contribute to the development of asthma. The principal
concern of NO X , though, is as a precursor to the formation of ozone.
• Sulfur Oxides (SO X ) are compounds of sulfur and oxygen molecules. SO 2 is the predominant
form found in the lower atmosphere and is a product of burning sulfur or sulfur-containing
materials. Major sources of SO 2 include power plants, large industrial facilities, diesel vehicles,
and oil-burning residential heaters. SO 2 may aggravate lung diseases, especially bronchitis. It
also constricts breathing passages, especially in asthmatics and people involved in moderate
to heavy exercise. SO 2 may cause wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. High levels of
particulates appear to worsen the effect of SO 2 , and long-term exposure to both pollutants
leads to higher rates of respiratory illnesses.
• PM 10 and PM 2.5 consist of extremely small, suspended particles or droplets 10 microns and
2.5 microns or smaller in diameter, respectively. Some sources of particulate matter, like
pollen and windstorms, are naturally occurring. However, in populated areas, most particulate
matter is caused by road dust, diesel soot, combustion products, abrasion of tires and brakes,
and construction activities. Health effects from short-term exposure (hours per days) can
include the following: irrigation of the eyes, nose, throat; coughing; phlegm; chest tightness;

shortness of breath; aggravation of existing lung disease causing asthma attacks and acute
bronchitis; those affected with heart disease can suffer heart attacks and arrhythmias. Health
effects from long-term exposure can include the following: reduced lung function; chronic
bronchitis; changes in lung morphology; and death.
• Airborne lead (Pb) is emitted from industrial facilities and from the sanding or removal of old
lead-based paint. Smelting and other metal processing activities are the primary sources of
lead emissions. The lead effects most commonly encountered in current populations are
neurological effects in children and cardiovascular effects in adults (e.g., high blood pressure
and heart disease). Infants and young children are especially sensitive to even low levels of
lead, which may contribute to behavioral problems, learning deficits, and lowered IQ.
Federally, the EPA’s Clean Air Act governs the establishment, review, and revision (as appropriate) of
National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). NAAQS are based on quantitative characterizations
of criteria pollutant exposures and their associated risks to human health and the environment and
are established based on a comprehensive review of available studies on air quality impacts to
human health and the environment. Air quality in California is also governed by the California Clean
Air Act (CCAA), which is administered by the ARB at the State level and by air quality management
districts and air pollution control districts at the regional and local levels. The ARB is responsible for
meeting the State requirements of the federal Clean Air Act (CAA), administering the CCAA, and
establishing California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS). CAAQS are generally as stringent or
more stringent than their corresponding NAAQS, and incorporate additional standards for sulfates,
hydrogen sulfide, vinyl chloride, and visibility-reducing particles. CAAQS define clean air: they
represent the maximum amount of a pollutant averaged over a specified period of time that can be
present in outdoor air without any harmful effects on people or the environment.
Toxic air contaminants (TACs) refer to a diverse group of “non-criteria” air pollutants that can affect
human health but have not had ambient air quality standards established for them. This is not
because they are fundamentally different from the criteria air pollutants discussed above, but
because their effects tend to be local rather than regional. The ARB and the California Office of
Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) determine if a substance should be formally
identified, or “listed,” as a TAC in California. A complete list of these substances is maintained on the
ARB’s website.11
One key TAC i s diesel particulate matter (DPM), which is emitted in diesel engine exhaust. Published
by SCAQMD in 2021, the Multiple Air Toxics Exposure Study V (MATES V) determined that about 88
percent of the carcinogenic risk from air toxics in SoCAB is attributable to mobile source emissions.
Of the three carcinogenic TACs that constitute the majority of known health risk from gas- and
diesel-powered vehicle emissions—DPM from mainly trucks, and benzene and 1,3-butadiene from
passenger vehicles—DPM is responsible for most of the potential cancer risk. Overall, DPM was
found to account for, on average, about 50 percent of the air toxics risk in the SoCAB.12 In addition to

its carcinogenic potential, DPM may also contribute to increased respiratory and cardiovascular
hospitalizations, worsened asthma and other respiratory symptoms, decreased lung function in
children, and premature death for people already with heart or lung disease. Those most vulnerable
to the non-cancer health effects of DPM are children whose lungs are still developing and the elderly
who may have other chronic health problems.13
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are typically formed from the combustion of fuels and/or
released through the evaporation of organic liquids. Some VOCs are also classified by the State as
TACs, though there are no VOC-specific ambient air quality standards. Once emitted, VOCs can mix in
the air with other pollutants (e.g., NO X , CO, SO 2 , etc.) and contribute to the formation of
photochemical smog.
Construction and operation of the proposed project would be subject to applicable SCAQMD rules

Would the project:
a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan?
Less than significant impact. A potentially significant impact to air quality would occur if the
proposed project would conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan.
The proposed project is located in Orange County. The EPA has classified the Orange County portion
of SoCAB as a nonattainment area for ozone and PM 2.5 . Concerning State criteria, SCAQMD has
designated this area as nonattainment for ozone, PM 10 , and PM 2.5 .16 To evaluate whether or not a
project conflicts with or obstructs implementation of the applicable air quality management plan
(2016 Air Quality Management Plan [AQMP] for SoCAB), the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook
states that there are two key indicators. These indicators are identified by the criteria discussed
below.
• Indicator 1: Whether a project will not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of
existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new violations or delay timely
attainment of air quality standards or the interim emission reductions specified in the AQMP.

• Indicator 2: According to Chapter 12 of the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook, the purpose
of the General Plan consistency findings is to determine whether a project is inconsistent with
the growth assumptions incorporated into the AQMP, and thus, whether it would interfere
with the region’s ability to comply with federal and California air quality standards.
Considering the recommended criteria in the SCAQMD’s 1993 Handbook, this analysis uses the
following criteria to address this potential impact:
• Criterion 1: Project ’s contribution to air quality violations (SCAQMD’s first indicator);
• Criterion 2: Assumptions in AQMP (SCAQMD’s second indicator); and
• Criterion 3: Compliance with applicable emission control measures in the AQMPs.
Criterion 1: Project’s Contribution to Air Quality Violations
According to the SCAQMD, a project is consistent with the AQMP if a project would not result in an
increase in the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new
violations, or delay timely attainment of air quality standards or the interim emission reductions
specified in the AQMP.17 Based on criteria set forth in the SCAQMD CEQA Air Quality Handbook, if a
project’s emissions do not exceed SCAQMD regional thresholds for VOC, NO X , CO, SO X , PM 10 , or
PM 2.5 , then the project would not be considered to violate an air quality standard or contribute
substantially to an existing violation. In other words, a project would not interfere with the
attainment or maintenance of ambient air quality standards – the primary goal of air quality plans –
if its emissions do not exceed the regional thresholds. As shown in Impact 2.3(b), the proposed
project would not exceed the SCAQMD’s regional thresholds of significance during construction nor
operation. Furthermore, and as also discussed under Impact 2.3(b), the proposed project’s localized
construction and operational emissions would not exceed the SCAQMD’s localized significance
thresholds (LSTs). Given these considerations, the proposed project’s construction and operational
emissions would neither cause nor materially contribute to any ambient air quality violations, nor
would they interfere with the AQMPs attainment of air quality standards or interim emissions
reductions.
Criterion 2: Assumptions in the AQMP
The 2016 AQMPs projections for achieving State and federal air quality goals are based on
population, housing, and employment trend assumptions in the Southern California Association of
Governments (SCAG) 2016-2040 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy
(RTP/SCS ), which are themselves largely based on growth forecasts from local governments like the
City of Anaheim. These assumptions and growth forecasts are developed, in part, from land use
patterns contained within local general plans. Ultimately, a project is consistent with the 2016 AQMP
if it is consistent with the population, housing, and employment assumptions and smart growth
policies that were used in the formation of the AQMP.18
As part of the proposed project, the proposed project site’s General Plan land use designation would
be changed from “Commercial” to “Mixed-Use Medium.” The zoning associated with APN 082-461-
39 would be changed from Industrial Zone to General Commercial (CG), and a Mixed-Use Overlay
17 South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). 2017. Final 2016 Air Quality Management Plan.
18 At the time of this air quality analysis, the 2016 AQMP is the most recently adopted plan for achieving air quality standards in the
SoCAB. A draft 2022 AQMP has been released by the SCAQMD, but this document has not yet been finalized or adopted.

Zone would be applied to all parcels comprising the proposed project site. This way, the entire
proposed project site would be within the CG Zone and the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone. The fact that
the proposed project would not be consistent with the site’s General Plan land use designations that
existed at the time of the 2016-2040 RTP/SCS does not mean that the proposed project would be
inconsistent with population, housing, and employment assumptions that were utilized by the 2016-
2040 RTP/SCS and the 2016 AQMP. This is because the 2016-2040 RTP/SCS (as well as the updated
2020-2045 RTP/SCS) assumed a significant increase in multi-family housing built in infill locations
near bus corridors and other transit infrastructure, in some cases even outpacing what was
anticipated at the time by local general plans. Development of the proposed project would be
consistent with this forward-thinking land use pattern and smart growth policies to increase housing
density within High Quality Transit Areas (HQTAs). Not only would the proposed project be located
within an HQTA, but it would also contribute to the RTP/SCS goal of encouraging growth of mixed-
use communities with ready access to transit infrastructure.
The latest RTP/SCS specifically encourages the development of medium and high-density housing to
create strategic nodes along existing or future transit corridors to better leverage transit investments
and allow for the replacement of under-performing, auto-oriented, low-intensity uses. By developing
dense residential housing in a low-intensity infill location (i.e., a maximum 10.1-acre site that
contains auto-oriented commercial uses and vacant lots) that is also within an HQTA, the proposed
project would contribute directly to the goals of SCAG’s RTP/SCS. The proposed project’s location
would provide abundant opportunity for residents, employees, and other guests and visitors to
reduce vehicle trips, specifically Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT). Given that the proposed project is
consistent with the 2016-2040 RTP/SCS land use pattern and supportive of its smart growth policies,
the proposed project is therefore consistent with the assumptions in the 2016 AQMP.
Criterion 3: Control Measures
The AQMP contains several control measures which are enforceable requirements through the
adoption of rules and regulations. As a matter of mandatory regulatory compliance, the proposed
project would comply with all applicable SCAQMD rules and regulations. For example, because
construction of the proposed project would involve grading activities that generate fugitive dust,
SCAQMD Rule 403 would apply. Rule 403 requires all sources of fugitive dust to implement Best
Available Control Measures (BACMs). Some examples of BACMs include but are not limited to pre-
watering soils prior to cut and fill activities, stabilizing soils during and after cut and fill activities,
stabilizing all off-road traffic and parking areas, and covering haul vehicles prior to exiting
construction sites. The proposed project’s compliance with applicable SCAQMD rules and regulations
(including Rule 403) would result in its consistency with applicable AQMP control measures.
To summarize the analysis in respect to Threshold (a): (1) proposed project-related growth would be
consistent with 2016 AQMP projections that are themselves based on 2016-2040 RTP/SCS
projections; (2) the proposed project’s development of dense residential and mixed uses in an infill
location that is also within a HQTA would be consistent with the latest regional land use planning
strategies to reduce VMT and associated air emissions; and (3) to be discussed further below, air
emissions associated with the proposed project’s construction and operations would neither exceed
nor materially contribute to any exceedance of ambient air quality standards and thresholds, nor

would they interfere with the AQMP’s attainment of air quality standards or interim emissions
reductions. As a result, the proposed project would not conflict with or obstruct the implementation
of any applicable air quality plans, and its impact with respect to Threshold (a) would be less than
significant.
b) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project
region is nonattainment under an applicable federal or State ambient air quality standard?
Less than significant impact. This impact is related to the cumulative effect of a project’s regional
criteria pollutant emissions. As described above, the region is currently nonattainment for ozone,
PM 10 , and PM 2.5 . By its nature, air pollution is largely a cumulative impact resulting from emissions
generated over a large geographic region. The nonattainment status of regional pollutants is a result
of past and present development within the air basin, and this regional impact is a cumulative
impact. In other words, new development projects (such as the proposed project) within the air
basin would contribute to this impact only on a cumulative basis. No single project would be
sufficient in size, by itself, to result in nonattainment of regional air quality standards. Instead, a
project’s emissions may be individually limited, but cumulatively considerable when taken in
combination with past, present, and future development projects.
The cumulative analysis focuses on whether a specific project would result in cumulatively
considerable emissions. According to Section 15064(h)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines, the existence of
significant cumulative impacts caused by other projects alone does not constitute substantial
evidence that a project’s incremental effects would be cumulatively considerable. Rather, the
determination of cumulative air quality impacts for construction and operational emissions is based
on whether a project would result in regional emissions that exceed the SCAQMD regional
thresholds of significance for construction and operations on a project level. Projects that generate
emissions below the SCAQMD significance thresholds would be considered consistent with regional
air quality planning efforts and would not generate cumulatively considerable emissions. The
SCAQMD provides similar guidance with respect to LSTs , which are addressed later in this analysis. In
short, if a project would not exceed SCAQMD regional and localized thresholds, its air quality
impacts would not be cumulatively considerable.
The proposed project’s regional construction and operational emissions, which include both on- and
off-site emissions, are evaluated separately below. Construction and operational emissions from the
proposed project were estimated using CalEEMod Version 2020.4.0. A detailed description of the
assumptions used to estimate emissions and the complete CalEEMod output files are contained in

Construction emissions are described as “short-term” or temporary in duration; however, they have
the potential to represent a significant impact with respect to air quality. Construction of the
proposed project would result in the temporary generation of VOC, NO X , CO, SO X , PM 10 , and PM 2.5
emissions from construction activities such as demolition, grading, building construction,
architectural coating, and asphalt paving. Fugitive dust emissions are primarily associated with earth
disturbance and grading activities, and vary as a function of soil silt content, soil moisture, wind

speed, acreage of disturbance area, and miles traveled by construction vehicles on-site and off-site.
Construction-related NO X emissions are primarily generated by exhaust emissions from heavy-duty
construction equipment, material and haul trucks, and construction worker vehicles. VOC emissions
are mainly generated by exhaust emissions from construction vehicles, off-gas emissions associated
with architectural coatings, and asphalt paving. The proposed project would reduce criteria pollutant
and ozone precursor emissions through the implementation of a variety of construction emission
reduction measures such as using low emission equipment, utilizing existing power sources, and
managing construction traffic in a way to avoid or reduce traffic impacts and subsequent emissions.
Construction of the proposed project is anticipated to last approximately 22 months. The proposed
project is expected to be operational immediately after construction, in early 2025 (construction is
anticipated to finish at the end of 2024). The anticipated construction schedule is based on
estimates provided by the project applicant. The duration of construction activity and associated
equipment represent a reasonable approximation of the expected construction fleet as required by
CEQA Guidelines. Because the SCAQMD’s regional (and LSTs ) are representative of maximum daily
emissions that would not be expected to cause or contribute to an exceedance of the most stringent
NAAQS or CAAQS for pollutants, the objective of the proposed project’s CalEEMod analysis is to
determine whether the proposed project’s maximum one-day construction emissions would have
the potential to exceed these thresholds. As such, the proposed project’s CalEEMod analysis relies
on conservative construction assumptions and generalized equipment scenarios that likely
overestimate maximum daily construction emissions in an effort to conclusively rule out the
possibility that threshold exceedances could occur. Construction is a dynamic process and day-to-day
emissions can vary widely—even within the same construction phase or sub-phase. This analytical
approach therefore minimizes the potential for inadvertently underestimating daily construction
emissions, which are the basis of SCAQMD’s air pollutant thresholds. The likelihood that the
maximum daily construction emissions estimated by this analysis would occur on a given
construction workday is low.
Table 3 presents the proposed project’s maximum daily construction emissions during the entire
construction duration using the worst-case summer or winter daily construction-related criteria
pollutant emissions for each phase of construction. Complete CalEEMod output files are included as
part of Appendix A.

As shown above in Table 3, the proposed project’s regional construction emissions would not exceed
SCAQMD regional significance thresholds for VOC, NO X , CO, SO X , PM 10 , or PM 2.5 . Therefore, the
cumulative impact of the proposed project’s construction emissions on regional air quality would be
less than significant.
Cumulative Operational Emissions
Following construction, long-term operations of the proposed project would generate daily
emissions. Operational emissions for land use development projects are typically distinguished as
mobile-, area-, and energy-source emissions. Mobile source emissions are those associated with
automobiles that would travel to and from the project site. Assumptions used to estimate mobile
source emissions that would be generated by the proposed project were consistent with those
presented in the project-specific traffic study. For example, the proposed project was estimated to
generate 2,776 trips per day. Area-source emissions include those associated with natural gas
combustion for space and water heating, landscape maintenance activities, and periodic
architectural coatings. Energy-source emissions are those associated with electricity consumption
and are more pertinent for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than air quality pollutants. Table 4
presents the proposed project’s maximum daily operational emissions.

emission source and pollutant. Therefore, total daily operational emissions represent maximum daily emissions that
could occur throughout the year. Some figures may not add up due to rounding.
Source of Table: Appendix A.
As shown in Table 4, the proposed project’s regional operational emissions would not exceed
SCAQMD regional significance thresholds for VOC, NO X , CO, SO X , PM 10 , or PM 2.5 . Furthermore, the
proposed project would incorporate energy conservation techniques and alternative transportation
infrastructure into the design to reduce associated emissions. The proposed project would be
required to comply with the building design requirements contained in the CBC, which includes the
installation of solar panels on new residential development, energy efficient building designs, and
the installation of bicycle racks and other alternative transportation mode infrastructure on
nonresidential development. The cumulative impact of the proposed project’s operational emissions
on regional air quality would be less than significant.
c) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. This impact evaluates the potential for
the proposed project’s construction and operational emissions to expose sensitive receptors to
substantial pollutant concentrations. Some land uses are considered more sensitive to changes in air
quality than others, depending on the population groups and the activities involved. Sensitive land
uses, or “sensitive receptors,” are those where sensitive individuals are most likely to spend time.

Individuals most susceptible and/or sensitive to poor air quality include children, the elderly,
athletes, and those with cardiovascular and chronic respiratory diseases. As a result, land uses
sensitive to air quality may include schools (i.e., elementary schools or high schools), childcare
centers, parks and playgrounds, long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation facilities, convalescent
facilities, retirement facilities, residences, and athletic facilities. For the purposes of CEQA analysis,
the SCAQMD considers a sensitive receptor to be a receptor such as a residence, hospital, or
convalescent facility where it is possible that an individual could remain for 24 hours. The SCAQMD
does not consider commercial or industrial facilities to be sensitive receptors because employees do
not typically remain on-site at such facilities for 24 hours but are present for shorter periods, such as
8-hour shifts. However, the SCAQMD suggests that LSTs based on shorter averaging periods, such as
the NO 2 and CO LSTs, may also be applied to receptors such as commercial and industrial facilities
since it is reasonable to assume that workers at these sites may be present for up to 8 hours.19
To result in a less than significant impact, the following criteria must be true:
• Criterion 1: LST assessment: emissions and air quality impacts during project construction or
operation must be below the applicable LSTs to screen out of needing to provide a more
detailed air quality analysis. If the proposed project exceeds any applicable LST when the mass
rate lookup tables are used as a screening analysis, then project-specific air quality modeling
may be performed to determine significance.
• Criterion 2: A CO hotspot assessment must demonstrate that the project would not result in
the development of a CO hotspot that would result in an exceedance of the CO ambient air
quality standards.
• Criterion 3: TAC analysis must demonstrate that the project would not result in significant
health risk impacts to sensitive receptors during construction.
Criterion 1: Localized Significance Threshold Analysis—Criteria Pollutants
The localized construction and operational analyses use thresholds (i.e., LSTs) that represent the
maximum emissions for a project that would not cause or contribute to an exceedance of the most
stringent applicable federal or State ambient air quality standard.20 They are developed based on the
ambient concentrations of a given pollutant for a Source Receptor Area and distances to the nearest
receptor. The SCAQMD provides LSTs for NO X , CO, PM 10 , and PM 2.5 . The SCAQMD does not provide a
LST for SO 2 because land use development projects typically result in negligible construction and
long-term operational emissions of this pollutant. There is no ambient standard or SCAQMD LST for
VOCs because VOCs are not a criteria pollutant. If the proposed project’s construction and/or
operational emissions would not exceed SCAQMD LSTs, then the proposed project would not cause
or contribute to an exceedance of a federal or State ambient air quality standard and would not
expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations.

Localized Construction Analysis
Table 5 presents the proposed project’s maximum daily on-site emissions compared with the
applicable LSTs for Source Receptor Area No. 17, “Central Orange County.” The LSTs assume a 1.5-
acre maximum daily disturbed acreage, consistent with guidance contained in the SCAQMD’s “Fact
Sheet for Applying CalEEMod to Localized Significance Thresholds” document. LSTs for this acreage
were interpolated per SCAQMD guidance. After grading, subsequent construction activities would be
more widespread across the maximum 10.1-acre site. Therefore, the application of 1.5-acre LSTs to
subsequent construction activities (e.g., building construction, paving, architectural coatings, etc.)
represents a conservative approach that relies on more stringent thresholds for a smaller project
size. The nearest land uses where individuals may be present for up to 8 hours include a multitude of
industrial and commercial uses that border the proposed project to the east. The nearest sensitive
land uses where individuals may be present for 24 hours include multi-family residential uses located
approximately 100 feet (approximately 30 meters) west of the proposed project, across Anaheim
Boulevard (1315 to 1331 South Anaheim Boulevard). The LSTs utilized for the proposed project are
based on a 25-meter receptor distance, which is the shortest distance used for analysis in the LST
guidance document. The CalEEMod analysis assumes that all construction activities would comply
with SCAQMD Rule 403 for fugitive dust, as is mandatory for all construction projects in the SoCAB.

Criterion 2: Carbon Monoxide Hotspot Analysis
The proposed project would generate traffic that produces and contributes to off-site emissions, but
this traffic generation would not result in exceedances of CO air quality standards at nearby
roadways due to three key factors. First, CO hotspots are rare and only occur in the presence of
unusual atmospheric conditions and extremely cold conditions, neither of which applies to the
surrounding area. Second, auto-related emissions of CO continue to decline because of advances in
fuel combustion technology and the increasing penetration of this technology in the vehicle fleet. CO
levels in the proposed project’s area are well below federal and State standards, as are CO levels in
SoCAB itself. No exceedances of CO have been recorded at nearby monitoring stations for some
time, and SoCAB is currently designated as a CO attainment area for both CAAQS and NAAQS. Finally,
the proposed project would not contribute to the levels of congestion and emissions necessary to
trigger a potential CO hotspot. Therefore, the proposed project’s potential to expose sensitive
receptors to substantial CO concentrations as a result of CO hotspots would be less than significant.
Criterion 3: TAC Analysi s
The primary TAC that would be generated by the proposed project’s construction activities is DPM,
which would be emitted from the exhaust pipes of diesel-powered construction vehicles and
equipment. A significant impact could occur if the proposed project’s construction would generate a
cancer risk at a sensitive receptor that is greater than or equal to the SCAQMD’s Maximum
Incremental Cancer Risk (MICR) threshold of 10 in one million. A construction Health Risk
Assessment (HRA) was prepared for the proposed project, in accordance with guidelines published
by the OEHHA and the SCAQMD. The American Meteorological Society/EPA Regulatory Model
(AERMOD) air dispersion model was utilized to model the effect of the proposed project’s
construction-related DPM emissions at surrounding sensitive receptors. The HRA concluded that the
proposed project’s construction-related impact at the Maximally Impacted Sensitive Receptor (MIR)
would be 9.6 in one million, which is below the SCAQMD’s 10 in one million threshold of significance
for excess cancer risk. Therefore, the impact of the proposed project’s construction-related TAC
emissions would be considered less than significant.
Nonetheless, the proposed project would result in construction exhaust emissions during project
construction for a duration of approximately 22 months near sensitive receptors, including an
assisted living facility approximately 100 feet west of the project site across Anaheim Boulevard.
While the proposed project’s localized construction emissions would not exceed the SCAQMD’s LSTs
and the proposed project’s construction exhaust emissions would not result in a potentially
significant health risk impact in accordance with the SCAQMD’s recommended thresholds, the
cancer risk resulting from project construction is close enough to the recommended significance
threshold that should any minor project construction information change (e.g., incremental increase
in equipment operation, slight overlap of two or more activities), construction of the proposed
project could result in the potential exceedance of the SCAQMD’s significance threshold of 10 excess
cancer cases for every one million people.
The proposed project would be required to use low emission construction equipment. MM AQ-1
would specify the extent of low emission construction equipment use necessary to reduce potential
cancer risk impacts resulting from sensitive receptor exposure to construction exhaust, such as DPM.

MM AQ-1 would require that all project construction equipment 50 horsepower or greater meet or
exceed EPA Tier 4 Interim standards for nonroad engines (as applicable). This would substantially
reduce construction-related NO X emissions, as well as PM 10 and PM 2.5 emissions associated with
construction equipment exhaust. Therefore, this impact would be less than significant with
mitigation.
d) Result in other emissions (such as those leading to odors) adversely affecting a substantial
number of people?
Less than significant impact. Odor impacts on residential areas and other sensitive receptors, such
as hospitals, daycare centers, or schools warrant the closest scrutiny, but consideration should also
be given to other land uses where people may congregate, such as recreational facilities, worksites,
and commercial areas.
Two situations create a potential for odor impact. The first occurs when a new odor source is located
near an existing sensitive receptor. The second occurs when a new sensitive receptor locates near an
existing source of odor. The proposed project applies to both of the situations.
Odors can cause a variety of responses. The impact of an odor is dependent on interacting factors
such as frequency (how often), intensity (strength), duration (in time), offensiveness
(unpleasantness), location, and sensory perception. While offensive odors rarely cause any physical
harm, they still can be very unpleasant, leading to considerable distress and often generating citizen
complaints to local governments and regulatory agencies.
The SCAQMD does not provide a suggested screening distance for a variety of odor-generating land
uses and operations. However, the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (Valley Air District)
does have a screening distance for odor sources. Those distances are used as a guide to assess whether
nearby facilities could be sources of significant odors, and the screening distances by type of odor
generator are listed in Table 7. Projects that would site a new sensitive receptor farther than the
applicable screening distances from an existing odor source would not likely have a significant impact.
The SCAQMD considers residences, schools, daycare centers, playgrounds, and medical facilities as
sensitive receptor land uses. The closest sensitive receptor is an assisted living facility approximately
100 feet west of the project site, across Anaheim Boulevard.

Construction-Related Odors
Potential sources that may emit odors during construction activities include exhaust from diesel
construction equipment. However, because of the temporary nature of these emissions, the
intermittent nature of construction activities, and the highly diffusive properties of DPM exhaust,
nearby receptors would not be affected by diesel exhaust odors associated with project
construction. Odors from these sources would be localized and generally confined to the immediate
area surrounding the proposed project site. The proposed project would utilize typical construction
techniques, and the odors would be typical of most construction sites and temporary in nature.
Operational-Related Odors
The proposed project includes the construction and development of residential uses with a modest
retail mixed -use component that would be less than 5,000 square feet. Land uses that are typically
identified as sources of objectionable odors include landfills, transfer stations, sewage treatment
plants, wastewater pump stations (the proposed project would include a small on-site private sewer lift
station), composting facilities, feedlots, coffee roasters, asphalt batch plants, and rendering plants. The
operation of the proposed project could lead to odors from associated laundry cleaning, vehicle
exhaust, cooking, waste disposal, and other odors typical of being generated at residences. However,
such odors generated by project operation would be small in quantity and duration and would not
pose an objectionable odor impact to future and existing receptors. Therefore, the proposed project
would not produce any offensive odor-emitting end uses such as composting, feed lots, refining,
sewage treatment, or solid waste management and would not be considered an odor generator as
identified in Table 7.
Therefore, the proposed project would not be a generator of objectionable odors during operations,
nor would the sensitive land uses be subject to any significant odor sources. The odor impact of the
proposed project would be less than significant.
Mitigation Measures

older, commercial land industrial abandoned buildings and parking lots. There are no natural

northern mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos), and house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus). There were
no special-status species or habitat for any special-status species observed on-site during the site
visit.
The biological characterization of the project site also included an analysis of the potential for
special-status species to occur there. To generate a list of special-status species that occur in the
project vicinity, an FCS Biologist reviewed the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW)
California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB), a special-status species and plant community account
database, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and
Consultation (IPaC) system, and the California Native Plant Society Electronic Inventory (CNPSEI) of
Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California database for the Anaheim, California USGS 7.5-
minute Topographic Quadrangle Map and its eight neighboring quads.21,22,23 The IPaC query
returned three listed species and 14 migratory birds (Appendix B: Table B-1). The CNPSEI query
returned 49 special-status plant species in the nine-quad search area (Appendix B: Table B -2). The
CNDDB query returned 32 special-status plant species and 66 special-status animal species in the
nine-quad search area (Appendix B: Table B-3). Of these species, three special-status plants and 15
special-status animal species have been recorded within 5 miles of the project site (Appendix B:
Table B-4). None of these species are expected to occur due to the lack of suitable habitat on the
project site and extensive urbanization and habitat modification in the surrounding area.
Would the project:
a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species
identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special-status species in local or regional plans, policies, or
regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife or United States Fish and
Wildlife Service?
No impact. There is no suitable habitat on or adjacent to the project site for any special-status
species that occur in the region, and no special-status species are expected to occur on-site. The
proposed project would not have a substantial effect on any special-status species.

b) Have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community
identified in local or regional plans, policies, and regulations or by the California Department of
Fish and Wildlife or United States Fish and Wildlife Service?
No impact. There are no riparian habitats or sensitive natural vegetation communities on or
adjacent to the project site. The proposed project would not have a substantial effect on any riparian
habitats or sensitive natural vegetation communities.
c) Have a substantial adverse effect on State or federally protected wetlands (including, but not
limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological
interruption, or other means?
No impact. There are no wetlands protected under State or federal law on or adjacent to the project
site. The proposed project would not have a substantial effect on any wetlands.
d) Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife
species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of
wildlife nursery sites?
Less than significant impact. The project site contains abandoned buildings and Street Trees that
could potentially provide nesting platforms or substrates for native and migratory birds that are
protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and/or Sections 3503, 3503.5, 3513 of the
CDFW Code. These laws prohibit disturbances to or destruction of nests, eggs, or young of actively
breeding birds. Implementation of the proposed project could disturb the activities of nesting birds,
leading to the abandonment of their nests, or could destroy active nests if site preparation activities
are conducted during the nesting season (February 1 through August 31). As required by these
existing regulations, if site preparation activities are proposed during the nesting/breeding season, a
qualified Biologist shall conduct a pre-construction survey within 72 hours prior to removal of
buildings and vegetation on-site to determine whether active nests of species protected by the
MBTA or the CDFW Code are present in the construction zone. If no active nests are found during the
survey, no further action is necessary. If active nests of avian species protected under the federal
MBTA and Sections 3503, 3503.5, 3513 are discovered during the survey, a qualified Biologist shall
establish an avoidance buffer using Environmentally Sensitive Area fencing, pin flags, or yellow
caution tape. The buffer zone shall be maintained around the active nest site(s) until the young have
fledged and are foraging independently. No construction activities or construction foot traffic is
allowed to occur within the avoidance buffer(s). The qualified Biologist shall monitor the active nest
during construction activities to prevent any potential impacts that may result from the construction
of the proposed project until the young have fledged. The qualified Biologist shall have the authority
to stop or divert any construction activities that would cause the adults to abandon the nest.
Adherence to regulatory requirements would reduce potential project impacts to a less than
significant level.

e) Conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree
preservation policy or ordinance?
Less than significant impact. The project site contains trees in parkways that may qualify as Street
Trees under Chapter 13.12 of the Anaheim Municipal Code. This ordinance establishes the
Community Services Department as the authority, defines the Department’s duties in surveying and
maintaining the City’s Street Trees, establishes a Street Tree species list, requires that Street Tree
planting and removal be implemented according to a master plan for the City’s urban forest, requires
that any new private development with a parkway between the sidewalk and curb plant Street Trees,
and prohibits maintenance or removal of existing Street Trees without permission from the
Community Services Department. Implementation of the proposed project would remove existing
Street Trees, which, if conducted without permission, would violate the City’s Street Tree Ordinance.
Thus, the Developer would be required to obtain permission from the Community Services
Department prior to removal of any Street Trees. Compliance with the City’s regulatory requirements
would reduce potential project impacts to a less than significant.
f) Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community
Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or State habitat conservation plan?
No impact. The proposed project is not located within or adjacent to a conservation plan area.
Project implementation would not conflict with or have a substantial effect on any conservation
plans.
Mitigation Measures

This section describes the existing cultural resources setting and potential effects from project
implementation on the project site and its surrounding area. Descriptions and analysis in this section
are based on information provided by the California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC),
South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC), National Register of Historic Places (NRHP),
California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), California Historic Landmarks list, California Points
of Historical Interest list, California Built Environment Resource Directory (BERD), the California
Historical Resources Inventory, and the Historic Built Environment Assessment Report prepared by
South Environmental. Non-confidential records search results and other correspondence are
included in Appendix C.

South Central Coastal Information Center
A records search and literature review were conducted on May 13, 2022, at the SCCIC located at
California State University, Fullerton, for the project site and a 0.5-mile radius surrounding it. The
purpose of this review was to access existing cultural resource survey reports, archaeological site
records, historic aerial photographs, and historic maps and evaluate whether any previously
documented prehistoric or historic archaeological sites, architectural resources, cultural landscapes,
or other resources exist within or near the project site.
The results from the records search indicate that there are three historic resources recorded within
the 0.5-mile search radius, none of which are located within the project boundaries. In addition,
eight area-specific survey reports are on file with the SCCIC, none of which are located within the
project boundaries, suggesting that the project site has not been previously surveyed for cultural
resources. A records search map identifying the project boundaries and a 0.5-mile search radius
along with relevant non-confidential records search results can be found in Appendix C.
Native American Heritage Commission
On March 21, 2022, FCS contacted the NAHC to determine whether any sacred sites were located
within the project site or its vicinity. A response was received on May 5, 2022, indicating that the
Sacred Lands File search was negative for Native American cultural resources in the project site. The
NAHC included a list of 18 Tribal Representatives that may offer additional information regarding the
project site. On April 20, 2022, the City distributed letters to the 18 Tribal Representatives identified
by the NAHC, notifying each tribe of the opportunity to consult with the City regarding the proposed
project. Two responses were received on May 9, 2022, and May 18, 2022, from the Gabrieleño Band
of Mission Indians–Kizh Nation and the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians Acjachemen, respectively,
requesting initiation of AB 52 consultation. As a result of the consultation process it has been
determined that the project has the potential to impact Tribal Cultural Resources (TCRs). The City
and the consulting tribes have provided mitigation measures that would reduce potential impacts to
TCRs to a less than significant level. Consultation between both tribes concluded on July 13, 2022,
and July 19, 2022, respectively. NAHC correspondence and copies of the NAHC letters can be found
in Appendix C.
Pedestrian Survey
On May 19, 2022, FCS Archaeologist Natalie Adame conducted the pedestrian survey for unrecorded
cultural resources within the project boundaries of the Anaheim Ball Mixed Used Project. The survey
began on the northeast corner of East Ball Road and South Claudia Street and headed west to the
northwest corner of East Ball Road and South Anaheim Boulevard. Because of the hardscaped nature
of the project site and accessibility issues, the entirety of the survey was conducted on the northern
border and western border. Photos of structures located at 1200 South Anaheim Boulevard, 1234
South Anaheim Boulevard, 1280 South Anaheim Boulevard, 1300 South Anaheim Boulevard, and
1354 South Anaheim Boulevard were taken and recorded. Several of the structures were still in
operation and being used. Particular attention was paid to the built environment and structures that
appeared to be more than 45 years of age. A review of historic aerials indicates that there are two
structures over the age of 45 located within the project boundaries that have not been previously

evaluated. Subsequently, a Historic Built Environmental Assessment Report was prepared by South
Environmental for the structures on-site that are more than 45 years in age (Appendix C).
Survey conditions were documented using digital photographs and field notes. During the survey,
Ms. Adame examined all areas of the exposed ground surface for prehistoric artifacts (e.g., fire-
affected rock, milling tools, flaked stone tools, tool-making debris, ceramics), soil discoloration and
depressions that might indicate the presence of a cultural midden, faunal and human osteological
remains, and features indicative of the former presence of structures or buildings (e.g., postholes,
standing exterior walls, foundations) or historic debris (e.g., glass, metal, ceramics).
To t he extent possible, all areas of the project site were inspected for culturally modified soils or
other indicators of potential historic or prehistoric resources. No historic or prehistoric cultural
resources or raw materials commonly used in the manufacture of tools (e.g., obsidian, Franciscan
chert, etc.) were found within the project site. Pedestrian survey photos can be found in Appendix C.
Historic Built Environment Assessment
FCS retained South Environmental to prepare a Historic Built Environment Assessment Report for
structures over 45 years in age identified during the pedestrian survey that was conducted by FCS.
South Environmental determined that five built environment resources more than 45 years old were
identified within the project site. The buildings are located at 1200, 1234, 1300, and 1354 South
Anaheim Boulevard, and 200 East Ball Road. The buildings were evaluated and recorded on
appropriate California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) Forms for historical significance in
consideration of CRHR and City designation criteria and integrity requirements. South Environmental
determined that all the buildings within the project site were found ineligible under all State and
local designation criteria due to lack of significant historical associations and architectural merit. The
Historic Built Environment Assessment Report can be found in Appendix C.
Cultural Resources
Would the project:
a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as pursuant to
Section 15064.5?
Less than significant impact. CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 defines “historical resources” as
resources listed in the CRHR, a local register, determined significant by the Lead Agency, or
determined to be eligible by the California Historical Resources Commission for listing in the CRHR.
The criteria for eligibility are generally set by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, which
established the NRHP, and which recognizes properties that are significant at the federal, State, and
local levels. To be eligible for listing in the NRHP and CRHR, a district, site, building, structure, or
object must possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and
association relative to American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, or culture. In
addition, unless the property possesses exceptional significance, it must be at least 50 years old to
be eligible.

The results of the SCCIC records search results indicate that there are three historic resources
recorded within the 0.5-mile radius of the project site, none of which are located within the project
boundaries. The pedestrian survey determined that there are buildings located within the project
boundaries that are over 45 years in age and may be potentially historic. Samantha Murray of South
Environmental was contacted to conduct an evaluation of the buildings. Five buildings more than 45
years in age were identified, evaluated, and recorded as part of the Historic Built Environment
Assessment Report prepared by South Environmental. The results of the evaluation determined that
all the buildings within the project site were found ineligible under all State and local designation
criteria due to lack of significant historical associations and architectural merit. No historical
resources were identified within the project site as a result of the evaluation. Therefore, impacts to
built environment resources within the proposed project are less than significant.
b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to
Section 15064.5?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines
defines significant archaeological resources as resources that meet the criteria for historical
resources, as discussed above, or resources that constitute unique archaeological resources. A
project-related significant adverse effect could occur if a project were to affect archaeological
resources that fall under either of these categories.
The records search conducted at the SCCIC for the project site and its 0.5-mile surrounding radius,
identify three historic resources, none of which are prehistoric. In addition, the results of the
pedestrian survey did not locate or identify any prehistoric resources. Nevertheless, it is possible
that earthmoving activities associated with project construction could encounter previously
undiscovered archaeological resources. Archaeological resources can include but are not limited to
stone, bone, wood or shell artifacts or features, including hearths and structural elements. Damage
or destruction of these resources would be a potentially significant impact. Implementation of MM
CUL-1 would ensure that this potential impact is reduced to a less than significant level.
c) Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries?
Less than significant impact. No human remains or cemeteries are known to exist within or near the
project site. Although human remains within the project site are unlikely, there is always the
possibility that earthmoving activities associated with project construction could potentially damage
or destroy previously undiscovered human remains.
In the event of the accidental discovery or recognition of any human remains, CEQA Guidelines
Section 15064.5, Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5, and Public Resources Code Sections
5097.94 and 5097.98 must be followed. Consistent with established law, once project-related
earthmoving begins and if there is inadvertent discovery or recognition of any human remains,
compliance with Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 would be required. Public Resources Code
Section 5097.98 identified the procedure that must be followed in the event of an accidental
discovery of human remains and determination of the remains to be Native American. Compliance

with these procedures as required by statute would reduce potential impacts related to human
remains to a less than significant level.
Tribal Cultural Resources
Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a tribal cultural resource,
defined in Public Resources Code Section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, cultural landscape
that is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object
with cultural value to a California Native American tribe, and that is:
d) Listed or eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources, or in a local register
of historical resources as defined in Public Resources Code Section 5020.1(k), or
Less than significant impact. The records search conducted at the SCCIC, which included a search of
the CRHR, did not identify any listed or eligible TCRs that would be adversely affected by the
proposed project. Additionally, the NAHC Sacred Lands File search produced a negative result for
TCRs in the project vicinity. The pedestrian survey conducted by FCS on May 19, 2022, similarly, did
not identify any TCRs. Therefore, impacts of the proposed project are less than significant.
e) A resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial
evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources
Code Section 5024.1. In applying the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resource Code
Section 5024.1, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California
Native American tribe.
Less than significant with mitigation incorporated. No TCRs significant to the criteria set forth in
subdivision (c) of Public Resources Code Section 5024.1 have been identified by the Lead Agency.
The City distributed letters to the 18 Tribal Representatives identified by the NAHC , including those
that have previously requested notification for AB 52 consultation, notifying each tribe of the
opportunity to consult with the City regarding the proposed project. Consultation letters were
mailed on April 20, 2022. Two responses were received on May 9, 2022, and May 18, 2022, from the
Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation and the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians
Acjachemen, respectively, requesting initiation of AB 52 consultation. As a result of the consultation
process and because implementation of the proposed project would remove the existing artificial fill
on the project site and the uppermost portions of the young alluvium underlying the project site on
the Santa Ana floodplain, it has been determined that the project has the potential to impact TCRs.
The City and the consulting tribes have provided mitigation measures that would reduce potential
impacts to TCRs to a less than significant level. Consultation between both tribes concluded on July
13, 2022, and July 19, 2022, respectively. Furthermore,. To reduce potential impacts, should any
undiscovered TCRs be encountered during project construction, implementation of MM TCR-1 would
reduce potential impacts to a less than significant level.

with project-related ground disturbance activities. The training shall include visual
aids, a discussion of applicable laws and statutes relating to archaeological
resources, types of resources that may be found within the project site, and
procedures that shall be followed in the event such resources are encountered.
In the event that inadvertent discoveries are found, an Archaeologist who meets the
Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualification Standards for Archaeology shall
perform an inspection of the site for potential archaeological resources once
grubbing, ground clearing, and demolition are complete, and prior to any grading or
project-related ground disturbance. In the event exposed soils indicate cultural
materials may be present, this shall be followed by regular or periodic archaeological
monitoring as determined by the Archaeologist, but full-time archaeological
monitoring is not required at this time.
It is always possible that ground-disturbing activities during construction may
uncover previously unknown, buried cultural resources. In the event that buried
cultural resources are discovered during construction, operations shall stop in the
immediate vicinity of the find and a qualified Archaeologist shall be consulted to
determine whether the resource requires further study. The qualified Archaeologist
shall make recommendations to the Lead Agency on the measures that shall be
implemented to protect the discovered resources, including but not limited to
excavation of the finds and evaluation of the finds in accordance with Section
15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines. Potentially significant cultural resources consist of
but are not limited to stone, bone, fossils, wood, or shell artifacts or features,
including hearths, structural remains, or historic dumpsites. Any previously
undiscovered resources found during construction within the project area shall be
recorded on appropriate California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) forms
and evaluated for significance in terms of CEQA criteria.
If the resources are determined to be unique historic resources as defined under
Section 15064.5 of the CEQA Guidelines, mitigation measures shall be identified by
the Archaeological Monitor and recommended to the Lead Agency. Appropriate
mitigation measures for significant resources shall include avoidance or capping,
incorporation of the site in green space, parks, or open space, or data recovery
excavations of the finds.
No further grading shall occur in the area of the discovery until the Lead Agency
approves the measures to protect these resources. Any archaeological artifacts
recovered as a result of mitigation shall be donated to a qualified scientific
institution approved by the Lead Agency where they would be afforded long-term
preservation to allow future scientific study.

Owner/Developer shall coordinate with the Juaneño Band of Mission Indians
Acjachemen Nation Native American tribe and the Gabrieleño Band of Mission
Indians – Kizh Nation Native American tribe in retention of Native American
Monitors (Tribal Monitors) and a copy of the executed contract shall be submitted to
the City of Anaheim Planning and Building Department. The Tribal Monitors shall
only be present on-site during the construction phases that involve ground-
disturbing activities within disturbed and undisturbed sediments. Ground-disturbing
activities may include, but are not limited to, potholing or auguring, grubbing, tree
removals, boring, grading, excavation, drilling, and trenching, within the project site.
The Tribal Monitors shall complete daily monitoring logs that shall provide
descriptions of the day’s activities, including construction activities, locations, soil,
and any cultural materials identified. The on-site monitoring shall end when the
project site grading and excavation activities are completed, or when the Tribal
Representatives and Monitors have indicated that the project site has a low
potential for impacting archaeological or tribal cultural resources.
Unanticipated Discovery of Human Remains and Associated Funerary Objects
Upon discovery of any archaeological or tribal cultural resources, construction
activities shall cease in the immediate vicinity of the find until the find can be
assessed. All archaeological and/or tribal cultural resources unearthed by project
construction activities shall be evaluated by the qualified Archaeologist and Tribal
Monitors. If the resources are Native American in origin, the Tribal Representative
shall coordinate with the Owner/Developer regarding treatment and curation of
these resources. Typically, the tribes will request reburial or preservation for
educational purposes. Work may continue on other parts of the project site while
evaluation and, if necessary, mitigation takes place (CEQA Guidelines Section
15064.5[f]). If a resource is determined by the qualified Archaeologist to constitute a
“historical resource” or “unique archaeological resource,” time allotment and
funding sufficient to allow for implementation of avoidance measures, or
appropriate mitigation, shall be available. The treatment plan established for the
resources shall be in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f) for
historical resources and Public Resources Section 21083.2(b) for unique
archaeological resources. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred
manner of treatment. If preservation in place is not feasible, treatment shall include
implementation of archaeological data recovery excavations to remove the resource
along with subsequent laboratory processing and analysis. Any historic
archaeological material that is not Native American in origin shall be curated at a
public, non-profit institution with a research interest in the materials, such as the
Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, the Copper Center, or the Fowler
Museum, if such an institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution

Environmental Evaluation
Setting
Energy use, especially through fossil fuel consumption and combustion, relates directly to
environmental quality since it can adversely affect air quality and generate GHG emissions that
contribute to climate change. Electrical power is generated through a variety of sources, including
fossil fuel combustion, hydropower, wind, solar, biofuels, and others. Natural gas is widely used to
heat buildings, prepare food in restaurants and residences, and fuel vehicles, among other uses. Fuel
use for transportation is related to the fuel efficiency of cars, trucks, and public transportation;
choice of different travel modes such as auto, carpool, and public transit; and miles traveled by these
modes and is generally based on petroleum-based fuels such as diesel and gasoline. Electric vehicles
(EVs) may not have any direct emissions but do have indirect emissions via the source of electricity
generated to power the vehicle. Construction and routine operation and maintenance of
transportation infrastructure also consume energy.
Anaheim Public Utilities provides electricity and water services to the City, and Southern California
Gas Company (SoCalGas) provides natural gas to the City and project site.
The City of Anaheim has not adopted a Climate Action Plan (CAP). The City’s General Plan includes a
range of policies that promote energy efficiency that are presented in Section 2.3, Air Quality
Setting. These policies will be referenced herein to evaluate the energy impacts of the proposed
project.
City of Anaheim Municipal Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan
The City of Anaheim’s “Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan: Sustainable Electric & Water Initiatives”
(GHG Reduction Plan), published in 2020, identifies reduction targets for years 2020 and 2030 to be
achieved by the Anaheim Public Utilities Department (APU). To meet the emissions targets, the GHG
Reduction Plan also identifies renewables portfolio targets of increasing the APU power supply
generated from renewable sources up to 33 percent by year 2020 and 40 to 50 percent by year 2030.
The GHG Reduction Plan also establishes transportation-related goals for APU to convert its fleet

vehicles to consist of 10 percent low to zero emissions vehicles by year 2020 and up to 20 percent by
year 2030. This GHG Reduction Plan has no direct applicability to the proposed project because it
applies only to municipal activities and not individual development projects; however, the proposed
project’s GHG emissions would benefit from the GHG Reduction Plan’s increased renewables targets
because the proposed project would be served by APU.
City of Anaheim Sustainability Programs
• Anaheim Public Utilities Incentive Programs: The program encompasses more than 45 rebates
and incentive programs offered to businesses and residents in the City of Anaheim to assist
them in water and energy savings.
• Electric Vehicle Charging: The City of Anaheim developed a streamlined process to promote
use of EVs in addition to creation of a rebate program for installation of EV chargers. The City
currently offers rebate programs of private and public use EV chargers.
• Green Building Program/Incentives: This program provides rebates for buildings certified as a
green building by the U.S. Green Building Council, California Green Build, Build It Green, or
other rating programs.
• Residential Rooftop Solar Systems: The City developed a streamlined permitting process for
small residential rooftop solar energy systems.
Would the project:
a) Result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or
unnecessary consumption of energy resources, during project construction or operation?
Less than significant impact. A discussion of the proposed project’s anticipated energy usage is
presented below. Energy use consumed by the proposed project was estimated and includes natural
gas, electricity, and fuel consumption for project construction and operation. Energy calculations are
included as part of Appendix A.
Construction Impacts
The project construction schedule was assumed to begin in March 2023 and conclude in December
2024. If the construction schedule moves to later years, construction emissions would likely decrease
because of improvements in technology and more stringent regulatory requirements as older, less
efficient equipment is replaced by newer and cleaner equipment. The proposed project would
require demolition, site preparation, grading, building construction, architectural coating, and
paving. The construction phase would require energy for the manufacture and transportation of
building materials, preparation of the site (e.g., demolition, site clearing, and grading), and the
actual construction of the building. Petroleum-based fuels such as diesel fuel and gasoline would be
the primary sources of energy for these tasks.
The types of on-site equipment used during construction of the proposed project could include
gasoline- and diesel-powered construction and transportation equipment, including trucks,

bulldozers, frontend loaders, forklifts, and cranes. Construction equipment is estimated to consume
a total of 57,205 gallons of diesel fuel over the entire construction duration (Appendix A).
Fuel use associated with construction vehicle trips generated by the proposed project was also
estimated; trips include construction worker trips, haul truck trips for material transport, and vendor
trips for construction material deliveries. Fuel use from these vehicles traveling to the project site
was based on (1) the projected number of trips the proposed project would generate during
construction, (2) average trip distances by trip type, and (3) fuel efficiencies estimated in the ARB
Emission Factors (EMFAC ) mobile source emission model. The specific parameters used to estimate
fuel usage are included in Appendix A. In total, the proposed project is estimated to generate
2,151,563 VMT and a combined 83,133 gallons of combined gasoline and diesel for vehicle travel
during the 22-month construction period.
Other equipment could include construction lighting, field services (office trailers), and electrically
driven equipment such as pumps and other tools. Section 6.73.020 of the Anaheim Municipal Code
defines permissible hours of construction as between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.24 As on-
site construction activities would be restricted to these hours; it is anticipated that the use of
construction lighting would be less than significant. Single-wide mobile office trailers, which are
commonly used in construction staging areas, generally range in size from 160 square feet to 720
square feet. A typical 720-square-foot office trailer would consume approximately 17,058 kilowatt-
hour (kWh) during the 22-month construction phase (Appendix A).
The overall construction schedule and process is already designed to be efficient in order to avoid
excess monetary costs. For example, equipment and fuel are not typically used wastefully due to the
added expense associated with renting the equipment, maintaining it, and fueling it. Therefore, the
opportunities for future efficiency gains during construction are limited. Moreover, the proposed
project would reduce energy impacts through the implementation of a variety of construction
emission reduction measures such as utilizing existing power sources and managing construction
traffic in a way to avoid or reduce traffic impacts and subsequent unnecessary energy consumption.
Therefore, it is anticipated that the construction phase of the proposed project would not result in
wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy. Construction-related energy impacts
would be less than significant.
Operational Impacts
The proposed project would consume energy as part of building operations and transportation
activities. Project energy consumption is summarized in Table 8.

Operation of the proposed project would consume an estimated 1,192,835 kWh of electricity and an
estimated 3,939,644 kilo-British Thermal Unit (kBTU) of natural gas on an annual basis. The
proposed project’s building would be designed and constructed in accordance with the City’s latest
adopted energy efficiency standards, which are based on the State’s Building Energy Efficiency
Standards. These are widely regarded as the most advanced building energy efficiency standards and
compliance would ensure that building energy consumption would not be wasteful, inefficient, or
unnecessary.
Moreover, the proposed project would include the incorporation of energy conservation techniques
and alternative transportation infrastructure into the proposed project’s design to reduce associated
emissions. The proposed project would be required to comply with the building design requirements
contained in the CBC, which includes the installation of solar panels on new residential
development, energy efficient building designs, and the installation of bicycle racks and other
alternative transportation mode infrastructure on nonresidential development. These project design
features would further ensure that building energy consumption would not be wasteful, inefficient,
or unnecessary.
Project-related vehicle trips would consume an estimated 346,269 gallons of gasoline and diesel
annually and would involve activities and travel routes typical of a residential project. As discussed
under Section 2.17, Transportation, the proposed project is located in a Transit Priority Area (TPA ),
which is defined as areas within a half mile around an existing major transit stop 25 or an existing stop
along a high-quality transit corridor.26 The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) operates
Bus Route 47 along Anaheim Boulevard adjacent to the project site. Bus Route 47 services the
project site at the “Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road” stop with headways of 15 minutes in the AM
peak period (7:00-9:00 a.m.) and PM peak period (4:00-6:00 p.m.). Thus, transportation fuel
consumption would be minimized through use of the nearby existing transit system and would not
be wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary. Impacts would be less than significant.
25 Public Resources Code Section 21064.3 - ‘Major transit stop’ means a site containing an existing rail transit station, a ferry terminal
served by either a bus or rail transit service, or the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval
of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoon peak commute periods.
26 Public Resources Code Section 21155 - For purposes of this section, a ‘high-quality transit corridor’ means a corridor with fixed
route bus service with service intervals no longer than 15 minutes during peak commute hours.

b) Conflict with or obstruct a State or local plan for renewable energy or energy efficiency?
Less than significant impact. California’s Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) required that 33
percent of electricity retail sales be served by renewable energy sources by 2020. The proposed
project would be served with electricity provided by Anaheim Public Utilities. In 2020, Anaheim
Public Utilities’ power mix included 32.3 percent eligible renewable (biomass and biowaste,
geothermal, eligible hydroelectric, solar, and wind), 46 percent coal, 19.9 percent natural gas, and
1.8 percent large hydroelectric.27
The proposed project would be served with gas provided by SoCalGas. SoCalGas offers renewable
natural gas captured from sources like dairies, wastewater treatment plants and landfills.28
The City of Anaheim has not adopted a CAP. The City’s General Plan sets forth a section of “Energy
Conservation: Green Power and Saving Electricity” within the “Green Element” Chapter and will be
referenced herein to determine project consistency with the applicable energy efficiency or
renewable energy policy or plan. Goals 9, 10, 11, 12 of the General Plan’s Green Element and their
underlying policies aim to reduce single-occupancy vehicle trips and promote clean air vehicles,
mass transit, and alternative transportation modes such as bicycling and walking, which altogether
reduces fuel-based energy consumption.
SCAG’s Connect SoCal RTP/SCS establishes GHG emission reduction goals for automobiles and light-
duty trucks for 2020 and 2045 as well as an overall GHG target for the project region consistent with
both the post-2020 GHG reduction goals of Executive Order 5-03-05 and B-30-15. The proposed
project is within a few miles of several large job centers and HQTAs in Orange County. Considering
the proposed project’s location within a HQTA, the proposed project is consistent with regional
strategies to reduce passenger VMT and transportation fuel consumption as well as Goals 9 through
12 of the General Plan’s Green Element.
Also contained in the General Plan’s Green Element, Goal 15.2 encourages site design practices that
reduce and conserve energy. Goal 15.2 includes policies that encourage increased use of passive and
active solar design in existing and new development, encourage energy efficient retrofitting of
existing buildings throughout the City, and continue to provide free energy audits for the public.
All land use development in the City is required to comply with the City’s Municipal Code, which
contains rules and regulations regarding energy efficiency. Chapter 10.10 of the City’s Municipal
Code encourages the redirection of recyclable materials generated during construction away from
landfills. Chapter 10.18 includes regulations to support water conservation. Chapter 15.03 adopts
the 2019 California Energy Code and Green Building Standards. Chapter 15.04 includes the Solar
Energy regulations and Section 15.04.060 promotes a streamlined permitting process for small
residential rooftop solar energy systems. As the proposed project would be compliant with these

codes and regulations, it would be consistent with the General Plan’s Green Element Goal 15.2 to
encourage energy efficient design.
Goal 16.1 aims to continue to monitor and improve the Anaheim Recycle program that would reduce
solid waste from households, businesses, commercial areas and construction activities. This goal
would apply to the City’s waste collection service provider, which is required to provide recycling and
organic waste collection services compliant with AB 341—which required the State to recycling,
reduce, or compost no less than 75 of solid waste collected in 2020—and Senate Bill (SB) 1383—
which requires local waste collection agencies to provide organic waste collection services.
Finally, as previously discussed, the City has a series of sustainability programs, which are listed
below.
• Anaheim Public Utilities Incentive Programs: The program encompasses more than 45 rebates
and incentive programs offered to businesses and residents in the City of Anaheim to assist
them in water and energy savings.
• Electric Vehicle Charging: The City of Anaheim developed a streamlined process to promote
use of EVs in addition to creation of a rebate program for installation of EV chargers. The City
currently offers rebate programs of private and public use EV chargers.
• Green Building Program/Incentives: This program provides rebates for buildings certified as a
green building by the U.S. Green Building Council, California Green Build, Build It Green, or
other rating programs.
• Residential Rooftop Solar Systems: The City developed a streamlined permitting process for
small residential rooftop solar energy systems.
The proposed project would neither conflict with nor obstruct the implementation of these
sustainability programs. These programs are primarily established by the City to facilitate the use of
energy efficient technologies and designs in existing development through rebate programs and
streamlined permitting processes. They would not place any requirement on the proposed project
and would be available to be utilized by future occupants of the proposed project. Therefore, the
proposed project would be consistent with the City’s overall sustainability efforts.
Therefore, compliance with the General Plan policies and programs, and adherence to the
development standards in the Municipal Code would ensure that the proposed project would not
conflict with or obstruct State or local plans for renewable energy or energy efficiency. Therefore,
the proposed project would have a less than significant impact under this criterion.

March 24, 2022, which is included in Appendix C of this report.
Would the project:
a) Directly or indirectly cause potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury
or death involving:
i) Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo
Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other
substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special
Publication 42.
Less than significant impact. The project site is located in Southern California, which is a seismically
active area. The type and magnitude of seismic hazards affecting a site are dependent on the
distance to the causative fault and the intensity and magnitude of the seismic event. The seismic
hazard may be primary, such as surface rupture and/or ground shaking, or secondary, such as
liquefaction and/or ground lurching.
Active faults are not known to exist within the project site. According to the Geotechnical Feasibility
Report, the project site is not within a California State designated earthquake fault zone. Accordingly,
the potential for fault surface rupture on the subject site is very low. Furthermore, according to the
most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone and Seismic Hazard Zone Map, a known
earthquake fault is not located near the project site or known to traverse the project site.29
Therefore, there would be less than significant impacts related to rupture of a known earthquake
fault.
ii) Strong seismic ground shaking?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The City, as well as most of Southern
California, is located in a region of historic seismic activity. The nearest zoned fault to the project site
is the Peralta Hills structure located 2.15 miles northeast of the project site. Other nearby faults
include Lower Elysian Park thrust located 3.5 miles northwest of the project site, and the Puente Hills
blind thrust system, located approximately 3.95 miles north of the project site.30 During seismic
events, the project site could experience moderate ground shaking associated with the faults
described above. Strong levels of seismic ground shaking can cause damage to buildings. The
intensity of ground shaking on the project site would depend upon the earthquake’s magnitude,
distance to the epicenter, and geology of the area between the project site and epicenter. The
proposed project would be subject to the current CBC, as adopted by the City’s Planning and
Building Department, with respect to seismic design parameters. Conformance with these standard
engineering practices and design criteria would reduce the effects of seismic ground shaking.

Section 5 of the Geotechnical Feasibility Report makes site-specific recommendations concerning
grading, earthwork, stormwater infiltration systems, as well as structural design and pavement
design. The Geotechnical Feasibility Report concluded that the proposed project would be feasible
from a geotechnical standpoint, with the incorporation of site-specific recommendations. MM GEO-1
requires implementation of the recommendations provided in the Geotechnical Feasibility Report.
Compliance with MM GEO-1 and applicable regulations would reduce potential impacts related to
strong seismic ground shaking to a less than significant level.
Following compliance with standard engineering practices, the CBC, and the site-specific
recommendations referenced in MM GEO-1, potential impacts concerning exposure of people or
structures to potential adverse effects involving strong seismic ground shaking would be less than
significant.
iii) Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction?
No impact. Liquefaction is a phenomenon where earthquake-induced ground vibrations increase the
pore pressure in saturated, granular soils until it is equal to the confining, overburden pressure.
When this occurs, the soil can completely lose its shear strength and enter a liquefied state. For
liquefaction to occur, a project site must be subject to three factors: underlying loose, coarse-grained
(sandy) soils, a groundwater depth of approximately 25 feet, and a potential for seismic shaking from
nearby large-magnitude earthquakes.
The project site is not located in a Liquefaction Hazard Zone.31 Additionally, according to the
Geotechnical Feasibility Report, the site is not located within an area that is susceptible to
liquefaction due to the depth of groundwater. Furthermore, the General Plan indicates that the
project site is not located within an area with liquefaction potential.32 Therefore, the proposed
project would not cause potential substantial adverse effects involving seismic-related ground
failure, including liquefaction. There would be no impact.
iv) Landslides?
No impact. Landslides can occur if ground shaking and/or heavy rainfall disturb areas of steep slopes
consisting of unstable soils. According to the General Plan, earthquake-induced landslides have the
potential to occur in the City’s Hill and Canyon Area. Generally, these types of failures consist of rock
falls, landslides, and debris flows. Areas having the potential for earthquake-induced landsliding
generally occur in areas of previous landslide movement, or where topographic, geological,
geotechnical, and subsurface water conditions indicate a potential for permanent ground
displacements.33 The project site is not located in the City’s Hill and Canyon Area and is not mapped

within an area with earthquake-induced landslide potential.34 Therefore, the proposed project
would not result in impacts related to landslides. There would be no impact.
b) Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The Geotechnical Feasibility Report
indicates that the project site is underlain by alluvium. Minor amounts of artificial fill are likely
present. The artificial fill and the uppermost portions of the alluvium are considered compressible
and unsuitable to support the proposed improvements. The proposed project would be required to
implement the site-specific recommendations referenced in MM GEO -1, which includes site
preparation and removal of unsuitable soils.
During construction, the proposed project would be required to comply with erosion and siltation
control measures outlined in Anaheim Municipal Code Chapter 17.04: Grading, Excavation, Fills,
Watercourses. Anaheim Municipal Code Chapter 17.04 requires that excavations and fills that may
affect drainage and watercourses be performed in accordance with good engineering practice,
thereby reducing to a minimum the hazards and damage to public and private property. This would
include measures such as sandbagging to reduce project site runoff or hold topsoil in place prior to
final grading and construction. Additionally, the proposed project would be subject to compliance
with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit for Stormwater
Discharges Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities (Order No. 2009-0009-
DWQ, and all subsequent amendments) (Construction General Permit); see Impact 4.10(a). The
Construction General Permit requires development and implementation of a Storm Water Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and monitoring plan, which must include erosion-control and sediment-
control Best Management Practices (BMPs) that would meet or exceed measures required by the
Construction General Permit to control potential construction-related pollutants. Following
compliance with the established regulatory framework including the Anaheim Municipal Code and
Construction General Permit, and with implementation of MM GEO-1, potential impacts concerning
soil erosion and loss of topsoil would be less than significant.
c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result
of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence,
liquefaction or collapse?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The project site would not be subject to
seismically induced liquefaction, as discussed in Impact 4.7(a)(iii) above, or landslides, as discussed
in Impact 2.7(a)(iv) above. Subsidence occurs when the withdrawal of groundwater, oil, or natural
gas vertically displaces a large portion of land. Soils that are particularly subject to subsidence
include those with high silt or clay content. Alluvium and minor amounts of artificial fill underlie the
project site. The Geotechnical Feasibility Report evaluated site conditions and identified the
potential for unstable soils. To address potential impacts related to unstable soil conditions, the
Geotechnical Feasibility Report recommends disposal of unsuitable soils and fill materials to a depth
of 4 to 6 feet, recompaction, and placement of additional engineered fill where appropriate.

Earthwork would be required to meet compaction standards and import soils must be approved by a
Geotechnical Consultant. Compliance with these recommendations would be required by
implementation of MM GEO-1 and would reduce potential impacts to less than significant.
Furthermore, the Anaheim Building Division would review construction plans to verify compliance
with standard engineering practices, the Municipal Code, the CBC, and the site-specific
recommendations contained in the Geotechnical Feasibility Report, as referenced in MM GEO-1.
Following compliance with standard engineering practices, the established regulatory framework,
and MM GEO-1, the proposed project would not be located on a geologic unit or soil that would
become unstable. Therefore, with implementation of MM GEO-1, impacts would be less than
significant.
d) Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994),
creating substantial direct or indirect risks to life or property?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The Geotechnical Feasibility Report
anticipated that the expansion potential would range from “very low” to “medium.” As discussed
previously, the artificial fill and the uppermost portions of the alluvium underlaying the project site
are considered compressible and unsuitable to support the proposed improvements. Therefore, the
Geotechnical Feasibility Report provides recommendations concerning site preparation, earthwork,
grading, removal of unsuitable soil, and fill material. The proposed project would be required to
implement MM GEO-1, which require implementation of these recommendations concerning site
preparation and removal of unsuitable soils, as well as earthwork to reduce potential impacts related
to soils on-site. Furthermore, the Anaheim Building Division would review construction plans to
verify compliance with standard engineering practices, the Anaheim Municipal Code, the CBC, and
MM GEO-1. Therefore, the proposed project would not be located on expansive soils that could
result in risks to life or property. With implementation of the recommendations required in MM
GEO-1, impacts would be less than significant.
e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative wastewater
disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of wastewater?
No impact. Sewers are available for disposal of the proposed project’s wastewater. The proposed
project would connect to the existing sanitary sewer system for wastewater disposal and would not
include the use of septic tanks. Therefore, no impacts would occur, and no mitigation is required.
f) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic
feature?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The project site has been previously
developed. According to the Paleontological Records Search, the natural surface of the project site is
completely obscured by prior commercial development. The records search suggests that the young
alluvium on the Santa Ana floodplain has no paleontological sensitivity or potential for significant
paleontological resources. On that basis, paleontological monitoring of construction activities was
not recommended, as paleontological resources are very unlikely to be present at the project site.

However, there is always a potential for project construction activities to affect unidentified
paleontological resources. Therefore, implementation of MM GEO-2, which addresses the actions
that the Developer would take in the event that construction uncovers previously undiscovered
paleontological resources. Implementation of MM GEO-2 would reduce potential impacts to
paleontological resources to a less than significant level.
Mitigation Measures
MM GEO-1 The Owner/Developer shall implement the recommendations provided in Section 5,
Preliminary Recommendations, and Section 6, Design Considerations, in the
Geotechnical Feasibility Report prepared by Alta California Geotechnical Inc. These
include general earthwork requirements for site preparation, soil removal, fill
material, grading, foundation, design, and all relevant construction permits, as well
as requirements related to structural design and pavement design. The Geotechnical
Feasibility Report that is included in Appendix D is incorporated herein by reference
as fully set forth in this mitigation measure.
MM GEO-2 In the event that any significant paleontological resources (i.e., bones, teeth, or
unusually abundant and well-preserved invertebrates or plants) be unearthed, the
construction crew shall not attempt to remove them. All work in the immediate
vicinity of the discovery shall be diverted at least 15 feet until a professional
Paleontologist assesses the find and, if deemed appropriate, salvages it in a timely
manner. All recovered fossils shall be deposited in an appropriate repository, where
they shall be properly curated and made accessible for future study.

emissions of greenhouse gases?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The “greenhouse effect” is the natural process that retains heat in the troposphere, the bottom layer
of the atmosphere. Without the greenhouse effect, thermal energy would “leak” into space resulting
in a much colder and inhospitable planet. With the greenhouse effect, the global average
temperature is approximately 61˚ F (degrees Fahrenheit) (16˚ C [degrees Celsius]). GHGs are the
components of the atmosphere responsible for the greenhouse effect. The amount of heat retained
is proportional to the concentration of GHGs in the atmosphere. As human activities and natural
sources release more GHGs into the atmosphere, GHG concentrations increase and the atmosphere
retains more heat, increasing the effects of climate change. The Kyoto Protocol identified six gases
for emission reduction targets: carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), methane (CH 4 ), nitrogen oxide (N 2 O),
hydrofluorocarbons (HFC), perfluorocarbons (PFC), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ). When accounting
for GHGs, all types of GHG emissions are expressed in terms of CO 2 e and are typically quantified in
metric tons (MT) or million metric tons (MMT).
In 2010, SCAQMD’s GHG CEQA Significance Threshold Stakeholder Working Group recommended an
interim screening level, consisting of a numeric, bright-line threshold of 3,000 MT CO 2 e annually. In
addition, the Working Group recommended an efficiency-based threshold of 4.8 MT CO 2 e per
service population (residents plus employees) per year in 2020 and 3.0 MT CO 2 e per service
population per year in 2035. The SCAQMD formed the Working Group to assist the SCAQMD’s efforts
to develop a GHG significance threshold with a wide variety of stakeholders. The Working Group
developed the numeric bright line and efficiency-based thresholds to be consistent with CEQA
requirements for developing significance thresholds. Substantial evidence supports the
recommended thresholds, which provide guidance to CEQA practitioners and lead agencies when
determining whether GHG emissions from a proposed project are significant.

a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant
impact on the environment?
Less than significant impact with mitigation. The proposed project is located in the SoCAB, which is
under the jurisdiction of SCAQMD. GHG emissions are generated during project construction and
operation (e.g., mobile emissions, emissions from generation of electricity for operations, and
emissions of from the manufacturing and transport of building materials). Since the City has not
adopted a CAP or any project-specific significance thresholds, the SCAQMD’s proposed 3,000 MT
CO 2 e/year non-industrial screening threshold is used as the significance threshold for the proposed
project.
Existing Land Uses
The proposed project site is currently occupied by a range of uses, only one of which is identified as
being currently operational: a used car dealership. Annual GHG emissions associated with this use
were estimated using CalEEMod Version 2020.4.0. As shown in Table 9, annual GHG emissions are
estimated to be approximately 203 MT CO 2 e.

Construction GHG Emissions
The proposed project’s construction GHG emissions were also estimated with CalEEMod Version
2020.4.0. As shown in Table 10, construction of the proposed project is estimated to generate an
estimated 1,424 MT CO 2 e. As recommended by the SCAQMD, this total construction-related GHG
emissions estimate was amortized over an assumed 30-year lifetime of the proposed project (i.e.,
the total construction-related GHG emissions estimate was divided by 30 to determine an “annual”
construction emissions estimate that can be added to the proposed project’s annual operational
emissions) to determine the proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory. This results in an
annual proposed project-related construction emission estimate of approximately 47 MT CO 2 e.

As previously discussed, the proposed project would minimize GHG emissions generated during
project construction through the implementation of a variety of construction emission reduction
measures such as utilizing existing power sources rather than on-site generators and managing
construction traffic in a way to avoid or reduce traffic impacts and subsequent GHG emissions.
Operational GHG Emissions
Operational or long-term emissions occur over the life of a project. Proposed project operations
were modeled for the 2025 operational year, immediately following the completion of construction.
Sources for operational GHG emissions include:
• Motor Vehicles: These emissions refer to GHG emissions contained in the exhaust from the
cars and trucks that would travel to and from the project site.
• Natural Gas: These emissions refer to the GHG emissions that occur when natural gas is
burned on the project site. Natural gas uses could include heating water, space heating,
dryers, stoves, or other uses.
• Indirect Electricity: These emissions refer to those generated by off-site power plants to
supply electricity required for the project.
• Area Sources: These emissions refer to those produced during activities such as landscape
maintenance.
• Water Transport: These emissions refer to those generated by the electricity required to
transport and treat the water to be used on the project site.

• Waste: These emissions refer to the GHG emissions produced by decomposing waste
generated by the project.
As previously discussed, the proposed project would include the incorporation of energy
conservation techniques and alternative transportation infrastructure into the proposed project’s
design to reduce associated emissions. The proposed project would be required to comply with the
building design requirements contained in the CBC, which includes the installation of solar panels on
new residential development, energy efficient building designs, and the installation of bicycle racks
and other alternative transportation mode infrastructure on nonresidential development. These
project design features would help minimize the generation of GHG emissions by providing on-site
sources of renewable energy and infrastructure to encourage the use of modes of transportation
alternative to single-occupancy vehicles. Table 11 presents the estimated annual GHG emissions
from the proposed project’s operations. As shown in Table 11, proposed project operations are
estimated to result in an annual GHG emissions inventory of approximately 4,080 MT CO 2 e.

As previously discussed, the SCAQMD’s recommended significance threshold for projects like the
proposed project is 3,000 MT CO 2 e per year; therefore, without mitigation this would be considered
a potentially significant impact. To reduce the proposed project’s annual GHG emissions to below
the adopted 3,000 MT CO 2 e threshold of significance, MM GHG-1 would be required, which
stipulates that the Owner/Developer purchase carbon credits, include additional sustainability
features, or otherwise offset project GHG emissions in an amount sufficient to reduce or offset the
proposed project’s annual GHG emissions to below the 3,000 MT CO 2 e threshold of significance.
Measures that the Owner/Developer could implement that are contained in MM GHG-1 include

installing solar beyond what is required by Title 24 standards, installing solar water heaters, or a
commitment to purchasing 100 percent renewable electricity, among others. Based on the current
estimate of the proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory, shown in Table 11, this would
be equivalent to no less than 1,080 MT CO 2 e per year for the first 30 years of proposed project
operations, or 32,400 MT CO 2 e total. Implementation of MM GHG-1 would offset the impact of the
proposed project’s GHG emissions to below the 3,000 MT CO 2 e threshold of significance and
therefore result in a less than significant impact.
b) Conflict with any applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the
emissions of greenhouse gases?
Less than significant impact. The City has not adopted a CAP or Citywide GHG Reduction Plan
applicable to land use development projects. As such, this consistency analysis focuses on the ARB
2017 Scoping Plan, SCAG’s Connect SoCal RTP/SCS, the City’s General Plan, and Municipal Code.
ARB Scoping Plan
The principal State plan and policy for GHG emission reduction targets are set forth in Executive
Order S-03-05, AB 32, and the subsequent SB 32. The quantitative goal of AB 32 was to reduce GHG
emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. AB 32 required the ARB to develop a Scoping Plan that describe’
California's approach to reduce GHGs to achieve the 2020 emission target. SB 32 then accelerated
the GHG emission reduction goals of AB 32. The 2017 Scoping Plan Update, the most recent update
to the ARB Scoping Plan, reflects the 2030 target of a 40 percent reduction below 1990 levels as set
by Executive Order B-30-15 and codified by SB 32. It is applicable to State agencies but is not directly
applicable to cities/counties and individual projects (i.e., the Scoping Plan does not require the City
to adopt policies, programs, or regulations to reduce GHG emissions). However, new regulations
adopted by the State agencies outlined in the Scoping Plan result in GHG emissions reductions at the
local level. As a result, local jurisdictions benefit from reductions in transportation emissions rates,
increases in water efficiency in the building and landscape codes, and other Statewide actions that
affect a local jurisdiction’s emissions inventory from the top down.
Transportation Sector
Passenger Vehicles
Statewide strategies to reduce GHG emissions from passenger vehicles and the transportation sector
in general include the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and changes in the corporate average fuel
economy standards (e.g., Pavley I and Pavley California Advanced Clean Cars program).35
Energy/Commercial-Residential Sectors
Energy use generated by the proposed project represents the second largest source of emissions
after transportation emissions. New buildings under the proposed project would meet the current
CALGreen and Building Energy Efficiency standards. The proposed project would include solar
facilities that are consistent with the most currently applicable CALGreen requirements. General
Plan Goal 15.2 encourages site design practices that reduce and conserve energy. The Goal includes

policies that encourage increased use of passive and active solar design in existing and new
development. Municipal Code Chapter 15.04 includes the Solar Energy regulations and Section
15.04.060 promotes a streamlined permitting process for small residential rooftop solar energy
systems. Municipal Code Chapter 15.03 adopts the 2019 California Energy Code, Green Building
Standards, and an array of other standards to reduce energy consumption as well as GHG emissions.
Other Sources
Other sources of GHG emissions include solid waste disposal, which is associated with landfilling
municipal solid waste. The amount of methane emitted to the atmosphere as a fraction of the total
amount of methane generated from the decomposition of accumulated waste has gradually declined
over time as more landfills install landfill gas collection and control systems and existing systems are
operated more efficiently as a result of ARB’s Landfill Methane Control Measure.36 Therefore, the
proposed project would be consistent with the State’s goals for the recycling and waste sector.
General Plan Goal 16.1 aims to continue to monitor and improve the Anaheim Recycle program that
would reduce solid waste from households, businesses, commercial areas, and construction
activities.
SCAG Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy
In September 2008, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the Sustainable Communities and
Climate Protection Act of 2008, also known as SB 375, to align regional planning efforts for housing
and transportation with the GHG reduction goals outlined by AB 32. SB 375 requires each
Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) to adopt an SCS encouraging compact development that
reduces passenger VMT and trips, all for the purpose of meeting ARB-determined regional GHG
emissions reduction targets.
SCAG is the regional planning agency for Los Angeles Orange, Ventura, Riverside, San Bernardino,
and Imperial counties and is tasked with addressing regional issues related to transportation, the
economy, community development, and the environment.
The ARB set GHG reduction targets of 8 percent by 2020 and 19 percent by 2035 (compared with
2005 levels) for the SCAG region, effective as of October 2018. Adopted on September 3, 2020,
SCAG’s latest long-range plan, the 2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities
Strategy (2020-2045 RTP/SCS or “Connect SoCal”), serves as the roadmap for fulfilling the region’s
compliance with these latest GHG reduction targets. To this end, the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS recognizes
that transportation investments and future land use patterns are inextricably linked, and it
acknowledges how this relationship can help the region make choices that sustain existing resources
while expanding efficiency, mobility, and accessibility for all people across the region. The 2020-2045
RTP/SCS land use pattern continues the trend of focusing new housing and employment growth in
the region’s HQTAs and aims to enhance and buildout the region’s transit network. At the time of the
previous 2016-2040 RTP/SCS, HQTAs accounted for just 3 percent of total land in the SCAG region,
but they are projected to accommodate 46 percent of the region’s future household growth and 55
percent of the region’s future employment growth by 2040. HQTAs are a cornerstone of land use

planning best practice in the SCAG region, and studies by the California Department of
Transportation, the EPA, and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission have found that focusing
development in areas served by transit can result in local, regional, and Statewide benefits including
reduced air pollution and energy consumption. In addition, HQTAs concentrate roadway repair
investments, leverage transit and active transportation investments, reduce regional life cycle
infrastructure costs, improve accessibility, create local jobs, and have the potential to improve public
health and housing affordability. As a result, HQTAs are vital to the attainment of regional GHG
emissions targets: successful implementation of the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS would result in more
complete communities with a variety of transportation and housing choices, which would reduce
automobile use and—crucially—associated GHG emissions.
As noted, implementation of the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS is projected to reduce per capita vehicle GHG
emissions by 19 percent by 2035, thus enabling the region to fulfill its portion of SB 375 compliance.
Implementation is also projected to reduce daily VMT per capita by 5 percent by 2045. Generally,
projects are considered consistent with the provisions and policies of applicable land use plans and
regulations if they are compatible with the general intent of the plans and would not preclude the
attainment of their primary goals. The land use pattern emphasized by the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS
involves concentrating new, dense housing and/or job growth in infill locations and HQTAs in an
effort to facilitate alternative transportation modes and reduce vehicle trips and VMT. Development
of the proposed project would be consistent with this land use pattern and related smart growth
policies to increase housing density within HQTAs. By developing dense residential housing in an
existing low-intensity infill location (i.e., a maximum 10.1-acre site that contains auto-oriented
commercial uses and vacant lots) that is also with a HQTA, the proposed project would contribute
directly to the goals of the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS. The proposed project is appropriately located and
supports the 2020-2045 RTP/SCS and its smart growth strategies to efficiently coordinate land usage
and transportation in an effort to reduce VMT and related GHG emissions.
Senate Bill 32 2017 Scoping Plan Update
The 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan Update addressing the SB 32 targets was adopted on
December 14, 2017. Table 12 provides an analysis of the proposed project’s consistency with the
2017 Scoping Plan Update measures. As shown in Table 12, many of the measures are not applicable

The proposed project is consistent with the City’s General Plan, Municipal Code, and would not conflict
with the provisions of SB 32. Therefore, the proposed project does not conflict with any plans to reduce
GHG emissions and the impact would be less than significant.
Mitigation Measures
MM GHG-1 Prior to the issuance of any certificate of occupancy for the proposed project, the
Owner/Developer shall provide the City with documentation, to the City’s
satisfaction, that demonstrates the proposed project would achieve GHG emission
reductions equivalent to no less than 1,080 metric tons (MT) of carbon dioxide
equivalent (CO 2 e) per year for 30 years, or 32,400 MT CO 2 e total, based on current
estimates of the proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory contained in
this analysis. GHG emission reductions may be achieved through any combination of
the following measures or other measures approved by the City:
• Commit to purchasing 100 percent renewable electricity.
• Install on-site solar panels that provide electricity beyond the minimum
requirements according to the current version of Title 24.
• Install solar water heaters or other renewable energy technologies.
• Install on-site charging infrastructure consistent with the Tier 2 standards
contained in California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen) Section
A4.106.6.8.
• Design and construct all residences to be all-electric, precluding the installation
of natural gas plumbing for space and water heating and appliance operation.

• Purchase voluntary carbon credits from a verified GHG emissions credit broker in
an amount sufficient to offset operational GHG emissions of no less than 1,080
MT CO 2 e per year for 30 years, or 32,400 MT CO2 2 e total.
Should the Owner/Developer elect to purchase carbon credits, all purchased carbon
credits shall be pursuant to the following performance standards and requirements:
(i) the carbon credits shall achieve real, permanent, quantifiable, verifiable,
enforceable, and additional reductions as set forth in California Health and Safety
Code Sections 38562(d)(1) and (d)(2). Such credits shall be based on protocols
consistent with the criteria set forth by Section 95972, subdivision (a), of Title 17 of
the California Code of Regulations, as determined by an expert qualified to make
such a determination, and shall not include credits originating outside of California,
except to the extent that the quality of the credits, and their sufficiency under the
standards set forth herein, can be verified by an expert qualified to make such a
determination. In no event shall credits from outside the United States be used.
Carbon credits must be purchased through one of the following: (i) a California Air
Resources Board (ARB) approved registry, such as the Climate Action Reserve, the
American Carbon Registry, or Verra (formerly known as the Verified Carbon
Standard); and (ii) any registry approved by the ARB to act as a registry under the
California Cap-and-Trade Program; or (iii) the California Air Pollution Control Officers
Association’s (CAPCOA) Greenhouse Gas Reduction Exchange (GHG Rx) or any
program adopted or approved by the South Coast Air Quality Management District
(SCAQMD).
As an alternative to purchasing carbon credits, the Owner/Developer may elect to
contribute to carbon offsets through a local or regional program or institution in an
amount sufficient to offset the proposed project’s GHG emissions by the previously

Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The analysis in this section is based, in part on the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I
ESA) prepared by Partner Engineering and Science, Inc., on February 5, 2020, included as Appendix
E. According to available historical sources, the subject property was formerly agricultural land
(orchards) with two apparent rural residences from at least 1938 to 1953. Between 1959 and 1963,
the subject property was developed with two of the present-day structures originally used as a bank
and an automobile dealership. By 1972, all of the subject property parcels had been developed with

the current commercial and/or industrial structures, except the 1280 South Anaheim parcel. By
1983, all of the present-day structures had been developed. Tenants on the subject property have
included various automotive dealership and repair businesses.
Would the project:
a) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use,
or disposal of hazardous materials?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. Construction of the proposed project
would include the transport, use, and disposal of limited quantities of hazardous materials necessary
for construction, including fuel and solvents. The use of these hazardous materials would be typical
of construction projects, would be short-term, and would be handled in accordance with standard
construction practices, as well as with applicable federal, State, and local regulations. Rregulatory
requirements would include California Code of Regulations Title 22, Division 4.5, for appropriate
management of hazardous materials, as well as the requirements of the EPA, Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act (RCRA), California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC), California
Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA), and California Department of Transportation
(Caltrans). Furthermore, MM HAZ-1, as further described below under Impact 2.9(b), requires
sampling to evaluate soil, soil vapor, or groundwater contamination related to the historical uses of
the project site. Compliance with the applicable hazardous material laws and regulations, as well as
MM HAZ-1, would ensure that the proposed project would not create a hazard to the public or the
environment through transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials. Therefore, construction
impacts would be less than significant with incorporation of MM HAZ-1.
The proposed project would include residential and retail mixed use development which do not
typically use or store large quantities of hazardous materials. During the operational phase of the
proposed project, hazardous materials may be handled on the project site. Hazardous materials that
would likely be used during operation would likely be limited to fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides,
solvents, household cleaning agents, and similar materials used for maintenance and operation of
the apartments, apartment building facilities, amenities, and landscaping. These types of materials
are common and represent a low risk to people and the environment when used as intended. The
proposed project would also be required to adhere to State and federal regulatory requirements as
discussed above. Therefore, impacts associated with hazardous materials would be less than
significant.
b) Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset
and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. As discussed above, the Phase I ESA
determined that the project site was previously used for agricultural purposes (orchards) from 1938
to 1963. The Phase I ESA determined that the previous orchards are not considered a Recognized
Environmental Condition (REC). Specifically, the Phase I ESA determined that there is a potential that
agricultural chemicals such as pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers may have been used and stored
on-site. The project site is paved and developed with building structures that minimize direct contact

to any potential remaining concentrations in the soil. Additionally, during previous site development
activities, near surface soils (where residual agricultural chemical concentrations would have most
likely been present, if at all) were likely mixed with fill material or disturbed during grading. Also,
engineered fill material is commonly placed over underlying soils as part of development activities.
These variables reduce any potential for exposure to residual agricultural chemicals. Based on the
conclusions of the Phase I ESA, the previous agricultural uses are not considered a REC; impacts
related to previous agricultural uses are less than significant.
Additionally, the Phase I ESA determined that three areas have been used for an automotive
dealership, automotive repair, or autobody/collision operations. These areas include 1200 South
Anaheim Boulevard, which is at the northwest corner of the project site; 1280-1300 South Anaheim
Boulevard, which is located along the western side of the project site adjacent to South Anaheim
Boulevard; and 1354 South Anaheim Boulevard, which is located on the southern end of the project
site. The Phase I ESA notes that there is a potential for previously unknown USTs or other subsurface
features to be encountered during future redevelopment activities due to the log history of vehicle
repair operations. Should a previously unknown UST be discovered, in addition to compliance with
federal, State, and local regulations discussed in Impact 2.9(s), a UST removal permit must be
obtained from the Anaheim Fire Department.37
Specifically, on the 1280-1300 South Anaheim Boulevard property, a 550-gallon waste oil
underground storage tank (UST) and a 280-gallon waste oil UST were removed from the back lot of
1300 South Anaheim Boulevard on December 7, 1989, in accordance with Orange County Health
Care Agency (OCHCA) permit. Soil samples taken below the tank were analyzed and determined to
be below the allowable levels for total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) and non-detectable for
benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX), and non-detectable halogenated VOCs and
purgeable aromatics and trichloroethene. On September 5, 1990, the Orange County Health Care
Agency (OCHCA) issued the responsible party, Walt Cadman, a No Further Action letter for the 280-
gallon and 550-gallon waste oil USTs. However, Partner Engineering and Science, Inc., notes that soil
vapor sampling was not previously required to be evaluated and the No Further Action letter advises
that changes in the present or proposed use of the site may require further site characterization and
mitigation activity. Therefore, the proposed project would require sampling to evaluate soil, soil
vapor, or groundwater contamination related to the former waste oil USTs pursuant to MM HAZ-1.
Anaheim Municipal Code Chapter 10.20, a soil boring permit must be obtained from the Anaheim
Public Utilities Department for any borings extending to groundwater, or are deeper than 20 feet.
Similarly, a permit must be obtained from the Anaheim Fire Department prior to the start of any UST
removal activities.
Additionally, the Phase I ESA indicates that the automotive repair operations included the use of an
in-ground hydraulic lift at 1200 South Anaheim Boulevard. Based on the likely date of installation,
there is a potential for polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) to have been present in the hydraulic fluid
used in current and/or former lifts. The condition at 1200 South Anaheim Boulevard represents a
REC. Therefore, prior to redevelopment of the property, the in-ground hydraulic lift shall be properly

removed from the project site, and confirmatory sampling shall be required to determine the
current conditions of soil and groundwater due to the use of current and former hydraulic lifts at the
project site pursuant to MM HAZ-2.
The Phase I ESA determined that due to the age of the buildings on the project site, there is a
potential that asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and/or lead-based paint (LBP) are present.
Therefore, as detailed in MM HAZ-3, a comprehensive, pre-demolition ACM survey in accordance
with the sampling protocol of the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) and SCAQMD
Rule 1403 (Asbestos Emissions from Demolition/Renovation Activities) would be conducted prior to
any activities with the potential to disturb building materials, in order to determine whether ACM
are present. Further, in the event ACM is detected, proper removal and disposal of the materials
identified would occur prior to any demolition. In addition, any LBP at the project site would be
removed in accordance with all applicable laws, including Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) guidelines. As such, impacts would be less than significant with the
implementation of MM HAZ-3.
As discussed in Impact 2.9(a), federal, State, and local laws, regulations address the storage, use,
handling, and disposal of any hazardous materials that might be used during construction. Therefore
compliance with applicable laws and regulations, in addition to MM HAZ-1, MM HAZ-2, and MM
HAZ-3, would reduce the risk of hazardous material incidents during construction to a less than
significant level. Therefore, project construction activities would not create a significant hazard to
the public or to the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions
involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment. Operational impacts would be
less than significant with mitigation incorporated.
During operation, the proposed project would not generate or facilitate the generation of hazardous
materials. The proposed project could involve the transport and use of materials associated with
routine maintenance of the project site; however, the types and quantities of materials used and
stored on-site would not be of a significant quantity to create a reasonably foreseeable upset or
accident. Therefore, operation of the proposed project would not create a significant hazard to the
public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials.
Operational impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required for operations of
the proposed project.
c) Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or
waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The nearest schools to the project site
include Paul Revere Elementary School, located at 140 West Guinida Lane, which is 0.25 mile south
of the project site; and Orange Grove Elementary School, located at 1000 South Harbor Boulevard,
which is 0.3-mile northwest of the project site. As discussed in Impacts 2.9(a) and (b), compliance
with applicable local, State, and federal regulations, in addition to MM HAZ-1, MM HAZ-2, and MM
HAZ-3, would reduce the risk of hazardous material incidents during construction to a less than
significant level. During operation of the proposed project, limited use of hazardous materials would
likely be used for building maintenance. Similarly, these hazardous materials would be stored,

handled, and disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations. Thus, the proposed project does
not propose any uses, which could potentially generate hazardous materials in significant quantities
that would have an impact to surrounding schools. Therefore, the schools in close proximity to the
project site would not be affected by hazardous emission or materials. Impacts would be less than
significant with mitigation incorporated.
d) Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to
Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the
public or the environment?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. Government Code Section 65962.5 refers
to the Hazardous Waste and Substances Site List, commonly known as the Cortese List. The Cortese
List contains hazardous waste and substance sites including public drinking water wells with
detectable levels of contamination; sites with known USTs having a reportable release; and solid
waste disposal facilities from which there is a known migration. The Cortese List also includes
hazardous substance sites selected for remedial action; historic Cortese sites; and sites with known
toxic material identified through the abandoned site assessment program. The California State Water
Resources Control Board (State Water Board) GeoTracker List of Leaking Underground Storage Tanks
(LUSTs) is a data resource that provides information regarding the facilities or sites identified as
meeting the “Cortese List” requirements.38 As previously discussed, on the 1280-1300 South
Anaheim Boulevard property, a 550-gallon waste oil UST and a 280-gallon waste oil UST were
removed from the back lot of 1300 South Anaheim Street on December 7, 1989. Soil samples taken
below the tank were analyzed and determined to be below the allowable levels for TPH and non-
detectable for BTEX, and non-detectable halogenated VOCs and purgeable aromatics and
trichloroethene. On September 5, 1990, the OCHCA issued the responsible party, Walt Cadman, a no
further action letter for the 280-gallon and 550-gallon waste oil USTs. Although the case has been
closed since September 5, 1990, it remains on the Cortese List. Implementation of MM HAZ-1,
identified in Impact 2.9(b) would ensure impacts would be less than significant.
e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted,
within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety
hazard or excessive noise for people residing or working in the project area?
No impact. The nearest airport is the Fullerton Municipal Airport located approximately 5.5 miles
northeast of the project site; the Joint Forces Training Base Los Alamitos, 8.6 miles southwest of the
project site; and the Long Beach Airport, located 14 miles west of the project site. The project site is
not within 2 miles of an airport. The project site is not within the Airport Influence Areas of these
airports and is not located within an airport land use plan. Therefore, the proposed project would
not result in a safety hazard or excessive noise for people working or living at the project site. No
impact would occur.

f) Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or
emergency evacuation plan?
Less than significant impact. The City’s Emergency Operations Plan (EOP), adopted in 2017,
establishes a comprehensive framework of policy and guidance for emergency and disaster response
operations.39 The EOP provides comprehensive policy and guidance for emergency and response
operations, and details the responsibilities of residents, organizations, and City departments. The
City uses Anaheim Alert to contact residents immediately during emergencies to provide information
regarding evacuations. During construction of the proposed project, construction activities would
not require the complete closure of South Anaheim Boulevard, East Ball Road, or any other public or
private streets and would be temporary in nature. Thus, construction of the proposed project would
not impede the use surrounding roadways for emergencies or access for emergency response
vehicles. Operation of the proposed project would not interfere with roadways and would provide
internal circulation for emergency vehicle access.
The EOP does not contain specific evacuation routes; however, the City of Anaheim has emergency
evacuation zones for the eastern portion of the City, where there is more open space and a greater
wildland fire hazard risk.40 The project site is not located in any of the evacuation zones because it is
in the western portion of the City. Therefore, because the proposed project would not impede the
use surrounding roadways for emergencies or access for emergency response vehicles, the proposed
project would not impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency
response plan or emergency evacuation plan. Thus, impacts would be less than significant.
g) Expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury or
death involving wildland fires?
No impact. The project site is located in an urbanized, flat area and does not contain slopes that
could contribute to wildfire. The project site is not located along an urban-wildland interface and is
not located in the eastern portion of the City, where wildfires are of the greatest risk. While the
eastern portion of the City has historically been subject to wildfire, the project site and its
surrounding areas do not have a history of wildfire.41 CAL FIRE has mapped fire threat potential
throughout California and ranks fire threats on a scale of no fire threat, moderate, high, and very
high fire severity. According to the CAL FIRE Hazard Severity Zone Map Viewer, the project site is not
located in a Fire Hazard Severity Zone (FHSZ).42
The project site is located within a Local Responsibility Area (LRA). Land within an LRA is either
located within a Very High FHSZ or a non-Very High FHSZ. The project site is designated as a non-

Very High FHSZ.43 Further, the project site is in a developed, built-up urban area that is not adjacent
to any Very High FHSZ or areas in the wildland-urban interface. Therefore, the proposed project is
not likely to expose people or structures to wildland fire hazards. No impact would occur.

Aside from nominal landscaping associated with existing uses, the project site is fully covered with
impervious surfaces (buildings, structures, and asphalt).44 Drainage from the project site enters East
Ball Road and South Anaheim Boulevard. The northeasterly portion of the site generally sheet flows
to East Ball Road, traveling via on-site ribbon gutter and discharging through an existing parkway
culvert. Once stormwater enters East Ball Road, it flows in a westerly direction in East Ball Road until
it is intercepted by a curb inlet catch basin located on the south side of East Ball Road at its
intersection with Technology Circle. This catch basin is connected to an existing 51-inch City of
Anaheim Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP). Flows are then directed through the Anaheim Barber City
Channel, ultimately converging to the Bolsa Chica Channel and discharged into Huntington Harbor.
The remaining portions of the site discharge into different locations along South Anaheim Boulevard.
Once flows enter South Anaheim Boulevard, they are intercepted by curb inlet catch basins. The
catch basins are located approximately 200 feet south of the intersection of East Ball Road and South
Anaheim Boulevard; approximately 750 feet south of the intersection of East Ball Road and South
Anaheim Boulevard; and at the intersection of East Palais Road and South Anaheim Boulevard. These
catch basins are connected to an existing 3-inch City of Anaheim RCP that flows in a southerly
direction until it converges with an existing 96-inch City of Anaheim RCP draining in the westerly
direction along Katella Avenue. Flows are then directed through the Anaheim Barber City Channel,
ultimately converging to the Bolsa Chica Channel discharging into Huntington Harbor.
According to the Central Anaheim Master Plan of Sanitary Sewers (CAMPSS), dated December 2017,
and the updated modeling from the South Central Anaheim Sewer Study (SCASS) dated May 2020,
sewer generation from the project site and adjacent parcels to the north and south flow to the
existing 15-inch sewer flowing west on Ball Road and the 8-inch sewer flowing south on Anaheim
Boulevard.
Would the project:
a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially
degrade surface or groundwater quality?
Less than significant impact. Project impacts related to water quality could occur over three
different periods:
• During the earthwork and construction phase, where the potential for erosion, siltation, and
sedimentation would be the greatest;
• Following construction, before the establishment of ground cover, when the erosion potential
may remain relatively high; and
• After project completion, when impacts related to sedimentation would decrease markedly
but those associated with urban runoff would increase.

Polluted runoff can have harmful effects on drinking water, recreational water, and wildlife. Urban
runoff pollution includes a wide array of environmental, stormwater characteristics depending on-
site conditions (e.g., land use, impervious cover, and pollution prevention practices), rain events
(duration, amount of rainfall, intensity, and time between events), soil type and particle sizes, the
amount of vehicular traffic, and atmospheric deposition. Major pollutants typically found in runoff
from urban areas include sediments, nutrients, oxygen-demanding substances, heavy metals,
petroleum hydrocarbons, pathogens, and bacteria. Most urban stormwater discharges are non-point
sources.
Construction
As discussed under Section 3.8, Geology and Soils, construction of the proposed project would
include removal of existing asphalt surfaces, grading, and earthwork, which could expose large
amounts of soil and result in soil erosion. Short-term impacts related to water quality could occur
during the earthwork and construction phases when the potential for erosion, siltation, and
sedimentation would be the greatest. Additionally, impacts could occur prior to the establishment of
ground cover when the erosion potential may remain relatively high. Construction activities could
produce common pollutants such as nutrients, heavy metals, pesticides and herbicides, and
chemicals related to construction and cleaning, waste materials such as wash water, paints, wood,
paper, concrete, food container, sanitary wastes, fuel, and lubricants. Impacts to stormwater quality
could occur from construction, associated earthmoving activities, and increased pollutant loading.
The Construction General Permit for Stormwater Discharge Associated with Construction Activity
(Construction General Permit) includes any construction or demolition activity, including but not
limited to clearing, grading, grubbing, excavation, or any other activity that results in a land
disturbance of equal to or greater than one acre. The proposed project would disturb up to 10.1
acres; therefore, the proposed project would be subject to the Construction General Permit. The
Construction General Permit requires development and implementation of a SWPPP and monitoring
plan, which must include erosion-control and sediment-control BMPs that would meet or exceed
measures required by the Construction General Permit to control potential construction-related
pollutants. Erosion-control BMPs prevent erosion, whereas sediment controls trap sediment once it
has been mobilized. The types of required BMPs are relative to the amount of soil disturbed, the
types of pollutants used or stored at the project site, and proximity to water bodies. Additionally, the
proposed project would be subject to compliance with Anaheim Municipal Code Section 10.09.070,
which requires compliance with the Orange County Drainage Area Management Plan (DAMP) and
any conditions and requirements established by the City in order to meet federal and State water
quality requirements related to stormwater runoff. The DAMP reduces the pollution content of
stormwater to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP). The purpose of the Orange County DAMP is
to satisfy NPDES permit conditions for creating and implementing a Storm Water Management Plan
(SWMP) to reduce pollutant discharges to the MEP. The DAMP contains guidelines on structural and
nonstructural BMPs for meeting the NPDES goals. BMPs include erosion controls, sediment controls,
wind erosion controls, tracking controls, non-stormwater management, and waste and materials
management. Following compliance with NPDES and Anaheim Municipal Code requirements, which
include implementation of BMPs, the proposed project’s construction-related activities would not
violate any water quality standards or otherwise substantially degrade surface or groundwater

quality. As discussed above, the proposed project would comply with the General Construction
Permit, NPDES requirements, and the requirements contained within the Orange County DAMP,
which require the use of BMPs to reduce the proposed project’s impact on water quality, as well as a
SWPPP. Therefore, construction-related impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is
required. Additionally, although mitigation would not be required to prevent impacts to surface or
groundwater quality, the applicant would implement the measures related to site preparation and
grading contained within the Geotechnical Feasibility Report in accordance with MM GEO-1, which
would further minimize any degradation of water quality from potential soil erosion associated with
the removal of the existing impervious surfaces, grading, and excavation.
Operations
The Orange County Flood Control District (OCFCD), Orange County, and the City of Anaheim along
with 25 incorporated cities therein (Permittees) discharge pollutants from their Municipal Separate
Storm Sewer (drain) System (MS4s). Stormwater and non-stormwater enter and are conveyed
through the MS4s and discharged to Santa Ana Region surface water bodies. These discharges are
subject to countywide waste discharge requirements contained in Order No. R8-2010-0062 (NPDES
Permit No. CAS618030), Waste Discharge Requirements for “The County of Orange, Orange County
Flood Control District and the Incorporated Cities of Orange County within the Santa Ana Region
Areawide Urban Storm Water Runoff, Orange County,”45 which was adopted on January 29, 2020.
The MS4 Permit Order provides the revised waste discharge requirements for MS4 discharges within
the Orange County watersheds, which includes the City of Anaheim. The MS4 Permit Order
supersedes Order No. R8-2009-0030.
The MS4 Permit Order requires development and implementation of a WQMP for all “New
Development” and “Redevelopment” projects subject to the Order. New development and
redevelopment projects/activities subject to Orange County’s Low Impact Development (LID)
requirements include all development projects equal to 1 acre or greater of disturbed area; and new
development that creates 10,000 square feet or greater of new impervious surface on a previously
undeveloped site. In addition, significant redevelopment that adds or replaces 5,000 square feet or
greater of impervious surface on an already developed site is also subject Orange County’s LID
requirements. Orange County uses its LID Ordinance to require that projects comply with NPDES
MS4 Permit water quality requirements. Because the proposed project would disturb up to 10.1
acres and replace more than 10,000 square feet of impervious surface area, the proposed project is
subject to Orange County’s Model Water Quality Management Program (MWQMP) requirements.
As discussed in the Preliminary WQMP prepared for the proposed project in June 2022 by C&V
Consulting, Inc. (Appendix F), the BMPs for the project site would include biotreatment systems,
catch basins and Modular Wetland Biofiltration Systems, infiltration BMPs, and nonstructural source
control BMPs such as common area landscape management, employee and property owner training,
and catch basin inspections. Structural source control BMPs would include storm drain signage, trash

and waste storage areas designed to reduce pollution, and efficient irrigation systems and water
conservation.
The following is a list of materials anticipated to be used or generated during project operations,
which would potentially contribute to pollutants, other than sediment, to stormwater runoff.
• Vehicle fluids, including oil, grease, petroleum, and coolants from personal vehicles;
• Landscaping materials and wastes (topsoil, plant materials, herbicides, fertilizers, mulch,
pesticides);
• General trash debris and litter; and
• Pet waste (bacteria/ fecal coliforms).
The project site would be graded to convey stormwater as surface flow toward proposed curb inlet
catch basins located at relative low points on-site. The proposed drainage pattern would mirror the
existing drainage pattern as closely as possible, with a portion of the project site draining into East
Ball Road and a portion draining into South Anaheim Boulevard. The curb inlet type Modular
Wetland Systems (MWS) would treat low flows for quality treatment and allow larger storm events
to bypass the MWS and enter the storm drain system.
Flows from the northeastern portion of the project site would be directed to one low point along
East Ball Road and another along South Claudina Street. The curb inlet MWS along Claudina Street
driveway entrance would convey flows via storm drainpipe to a stormwater lift station located at the
East Ball Road driveway entrance. At this point, flows from the East Ball Road curb inlet MWS would
confluence at the stormwater lift station. Flows would then be pumped out of the site via a
proposed parkway culvert into East Ball Road. Once flows from this portion enter East Ball Road,
they would follow the historic drainage pattern.
Similarly, the western portion of the project site would convey flows in a westerly direction to eight
curb inlet MWSs located at the end of drive aisles adjacent to South Anaheim Boulevard. All eight of
these MWSs would be connected via storm drainpipe to a single stormwater lift station located at
the southerly driveway entrance into South Anaheim Boulevard. Like the northeastern portion of the
project site, flows would then be pumped out of the site via a proposed parkway culvert into South
Anaheim Boulevard. Once flows enter East Ball Road, they would follow the historic drainage
pattern.
Stormwater generated from small rainfalls, or first flush of heavy rainfalls would be treated on-site
via proposed on-site curb inlet MWS Biofiltration Vaults prior to discharging to either South Anaheim
Boulevard or East Ball Road. In the event the storm drain system becomes clogged or overwhelmed
by extraordinary storm events, emergency overflow would be directed as sheet flow toward East Ball
Road and South Anaheim Boulevard and overflow into the right-of-way via each proposed driveway
entrance.
The County’s LID Ordinance requires projects comply with NPDES MS4 Permit water quality
requirements. Thus, all new developments and redevelopments that would have at least one acre of

impervious surfaces are required to prepare a WQMP, including the proposed project. The WQMP
for the proposed project is included in Appendix F. Furthermore, the City requires that all significant
redevelopment projects, defined as projects that add or replaces 5,000 or more square feet of
impervious surfaces, to comply with Orange County’s LID requirements. Therefore, with
implementation of the described BMPs, compliance with the applicable permits and plans described
above, the proposed project would not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge
requirements. Impacts would be less than significant, and mitigation is not required. Additionally,
although mitigation is not required, implementation of the site-specific recommendations related to
site preparation and grading identified in MM GEO-1, which include measures that would minimize
water quality impacts from erosion, would further reduce impacts.
b) Substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater
recharge such that the project may impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin?
Less than significant impact. The project site’s water purveyor is the City, which uses imported
water, local groundwater, and recycled water to meet its water needs. The City works with two
primary agencies to supply water to the community: the Metropolitan Water District of Southern
California (MWD) and the Orange County Water District (OCWD) to ensure a reliable water supply
that would continue to serve the City in periods of drought and water shortage. The City’s main
source of water supply is groundwater from the Orange County Groundwater Basin (OC Basin).
Historically, the City’s water supply primarily came from a mixture of groundwater (70 percent) and
imported water (30 percent) from MWD; however, the City has taken many of its wells off-line as of
March 2020 and is operating closer to a 60/40 split. As of April 2021, there are only four active wells,
while the remaining wells have been taken off-line due to either mechanical issues or a group of
chemicals referred to as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS ). Over the next several years, the
City will construct groundwater treatment facilities to remove PFAS to acceptable State-mandated
levels after which groundwater usage will meet or exceed historical levels consistent with increased
groundwater supplies due to the expansion of OCWD’s Groundwater Replenishment System.46
OCWD regulates groundwater levels in the OC Basin by regulating the annual amount of pumping.
The regulation is based on establishing the Basin Production Percentage (BPP), the percentage of
each producer’s total water supply that comes from groundwater pumped from the OC Basin. The
BPP is set based on groundwater conditions, availability of imported water supplies, and basin
management objectives. The project site is located on the OC Basin. Typically, basin recharge occurs
through either the natural percolation of rainwater through the ground or the artificial recharge that
occurs at spreading grounds, modular wetlands, etc., which results in the percolation of that
captured water into the ground.
Aside from nominal landscaping associated with existing uses, the existing project site is fully
covered with impervious surfaces (buildings, structures, and asphalt). The proposed project would
result in an increase of pervious surfaces and lower stormwater peak flows as compared to the
existing condition. This increase in the amount of pervious surfaces would improve groundwater

recharge through the introduction of stormwater basins that would allow for passive recharge.
Therefore, the proposed project would not increase impervious areas at the project site and would
increase the amount of pervious area available for groundwater recharge through percolation of
stormwaters. As such the proposed project would not decrease groundwater supplies or interfere
with groundwater recharge.
Further, as discussed in the Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP), groundwater levels are
managed within a safe basin operating range to protect the long-term sustainability of the OC Basin
and to protect against land subsidence. The OCWD regulates groundwater levels in the OC Basin by
regulating the annual amount of pumping. Thus, the proposed project would not substantially
deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the
proposed project would impede the basins’ sustainable groundwater management. Therefore,
impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of area, including through the alteration of the
course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which
would:
(i) result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site;
Less than significant impact. The proposed project would not result in a significant change to the
project site’s drainage pattern. As described in Impact 2.10(a), the proposed drainage pattern would
mirror the existing drainage pattern as closely as possible, with a portion of the project site draining
into East Ball Road and a portion draining into South Anaheim Boulevard. The proposed project
would not involve the alteration of the course of a stream or river. The proposed drainage pattern
would be similar to the project site’s existing drainage patterns and would include stormwater basins
that would further reduce off-site flow from existing conditions, in accordance with current BMPs.
Therefore, the proposed project would not substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the
area in a manner that would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site and impacts
would be less than significant.
(ii) substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result
in flooding on- or off-site;
Less than significant impact. Runoff from the project site is captured by existing City of Anaheim
catch basins. According to the Preliminary Hydrology and Drainage Study, the proposed condition
stormwater peak flows from the subject site were determined to be lower than the existing
condition stormwater peak flows due to the increase of pervious surface in the proposed
development and elongation of the flow path in the proposed condition. Therefore, the proposed
project would not substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff or result in flooding on-
or off-site. Impacts would be less than significant.

(iii) create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned
stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff;
or
Less than significant impact. The City is primarily built out and has an existing stormwater drainage
system. According to the Preliminary Hydrology and Drainage Study, the proposed condition
stormwater peak flows from the project site would be lower than the existing condition stormwater
peak flows. This is mainly due to the increase of pervious surface in the proposed development and
elongation of the flow path in the proposed condition. Furthermore, the proposed project would use
an on-site biofiltration system to treat off-site runoff and minimize impacts to existing stormwater
drainage facilities. Since the peak flow runoff from the proposed conditions is less than that of the
existing condition, the proposed project would not result in runoff water that would exceed the
capacity of stormwater drainage systems or result in additional sources of polluted runoff. During
construction, the proposed project would be required to comply with NPDES requirements to ensure
that any potential impacts associated with runoff and water quality during grading and project
construction would be addressed, as described in Impact 2.10(a). Therefore, impacts would be less
than significant.
(iv) impede or redirect flood flows?
Less than significant impact. The project site is not located within the 100-year hazard flood zone
area. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) rate
map Number 06059C0133J, revised December 3, 2009, indicates that the site is located within Zone
X – “0.2 percent Annual Chance Flood Hazard, Areas of 1 percent annual chance flood with average
depth less than one foot or with drainage areas of less than 1 square mile.”47 Therefore, the project
site is not in a flood hazard zone and would not impede or redirect flood flows. As such, impacts
would be less than significant.
d) In flood hazard, tsunami, or seiche zones, risk release of pollutants due to project inundation?
No impact. As previously discussed, according to the FEMA FIRM rate map Number 06059C0133J,
revised December 3, 2009, the site is located within Zone X – “0.2 percent Annual Chance Flood
Hazard, Areas of 1 percent annual chance flood with average depth less than 1 foot or with drainage
areas of less than 1 square mile.”. Therefore, the project site is not in a flood hazard zone. General
Plan Safety Element Figures S-6 and S-7 depict flood hazard areas and dam failure inundation areas
for Prado Dam, Carbon Canyon Dam, and the Walnut Canyon Reservoir, respectively. Figures S-6 and

of large bodies of standing water, such as lakes, which can occur in response to ground shaking. The
project site is approximately 10 miles northeast of the Pacific Ocean and there are no nearby bodies
of standing water.
The project proposes a residential development that would involve only limited use of materials
associated with routine property maintenance, such as janitorial supplies for cleaning purposes
and/or herbicides and pesticides for landscaping. The project site is not in a flood hazard, tsunami,
or seiche zone, and would not risk the release of pollutants. Therefore, no impact would occur.
e) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or sustainable
groundwater management plan?
Less than significant impact. Based on the UWMP methodology,49 the proposed project would
generate a water demand of 40,215.7 gallons per day (GPD) or approximately 45.05 acre-feet per
year (AFY). According to the UWMP, the total water supply for the City is approximately 62,302 AFY.
The proposed project’s additional water demand constitutes approximately 0.07 percent of the total
demand.
The City’s main source of water supply is groundwater from the OC Basin. Historically, the City’s
water supply primarily came from a mixture of groundwater (70 percent) and imported water (30
percent) from MWD; however, the City has taken many of its wells off-line as of March 2020 and is
operating closer to a 60/40 split. As of April 2021, there are only four active wells, while the
remaining wells have been taken off-line due to either mechanical issues or a group of chemicals
referred to as PFAS . Over the next several years, the City will construct groundwater treatment
facilities to remove PFAS to acceptable State-mandated levels after which groundwater usage will
meet or exceed historical levels consistent with increased groundwater supplies due to the
expansion of OCWD’s Groundwater Replenishment System. The City does not have its own
Groundwater Management Plan; however, the OCWD maintains a Groundwater Management Plan,
which was most recently updated in 2015.50 According to the OCWD Groundwater Management
Plan, OCWD regulates groundwater levels in the OC Basin by regulating the annual amount of
pumping.51 The primary mechanism used by OCWD to manage pumping is the BPP. The BPP is a
percentage of each producer ’s water supply that comes from groundwater pumped from the basin.
The BPP is set on an annual basis and is uniform for all Producers. Groundwater pumping above the
BPP is assessed an additional charge that creates a disincentive for over-producing.
According to the UWMP, by 2025 the BPP for the City would be 82 percent. However, the City’s 2025
water supply and demand forecast in the UWMP projected the local groundwater supply as the
amount needed to meet projected demands after subtracting the available supply from
Metropolitan (14,000 AFY) and recycled water supply (120 AFY), rather than using the amount of

groundwater available to the City based on the BPP. The City would utilize local groundwater
supplies first and supplement with imported water as needed to meet demands. Given this
information, water supply from groundwater is expected to be approximately 48,182 AFY in 2025,
which is approximately 77 percent of the total water supply for the City, which approximately 62,302
AFY. For the same year, the City’s total demand is expected to be 58,878 AFY. The proposed project
would create an additional demand of approximately 45.05 AFY, which is approximately 0.07 percent
of the total demand. Thus, there is excess groundwater supply available for the City, and the water
supply demanded by the proposed project would be negligible. Therefore, impacts would be less
than significant, and no mitigation is required.

mitigating an environmental effect?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The General Plan currently designates the project site as General Commercial. The proposed project
would require a GPA to change the land use designation from General Commercial to Mixed-Use
Medium. The Mixed-Use Medium land use designation is intended to allow flexibility for parcels that
could transition from strip commercial uses to residential or a mix of residential, commercial, and
office development. This designation allows residential uses in either a stand-alone or mixed-use
configuration at a density of up to 36 du/ac. The nonresidential component of mixed-use
development is permitted at a maximum FAR of 0.35.
The majority of the project site is currently within the C-G Zone, with the exception of APN 082-461-
39, which is within the Industrial Zone. The proposed project would require an RCL to change the
zoning on APN 082-461-39 from the Industrial Zone to the C-G Zone and to add the MU Overlay Zone
to all parcels within the project site so that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and
the MU Overlay Zone.
The proposed project would also include a CUP to permit a mixed-use project that would include
development of up to 249 unit residential flats and townhomes and a 4,500-square-foot retail
building on the ground floor of the mixed-use building(s) along the Ball Road entrance to the project
site.
Would the project:
a) Physically divide an established community?
Less than significant impact. The project site is in a highly developed and urbanized area. The
surrounding area is urbanized and contains retail and residential uses, similar to the project site. The
project site is not large enough or otherwise configured in such a way that would create a physical
barrier within an established community. A typical example of such a barrier would be a project that
involved a continuous right-of-way, such as a roadway, which would divide a community and impede
access between parts of the community. Implementation of the proposed project would not disrupt

the surrounding land uses or divide the physical arrangement of the established communities to the
north, south, and east of the project site. Therefore, the proposed project would not physically
divide an established community, and impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is
required.
Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
b) Cause a significant environmental impact due to a conflict with any land use plan, policy, or
regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect?
Less than significant impact. The proposed project would include a GPA to change the General Plan
land use designation from General Commercial to Mixed-Use Medium and RCL to change the zoning
on APN 082-461-39 from the Industrial Zone to the C-G Zone and to add the MU Overlay Zone to all
parcels within the project site so that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and the
MU Overlay Zone. As described above, the land uses to the north, south, and east of the project site
are designated by the General Plan for General Commercial, Residential, and Industrial uses. As such,
the proposed GPA would be consistent with the existing surrounding land uses, and with approval of
these changes, the proposed project would not conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or
regulation. Impacts are therefore considered less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
Noise Land Use Compatibility
For a discussion of the characteristics of noise and further information regarding the applicable noise
regulatory framework, refer to the Noise impact discussion in Section XII of this document.
A significant impact would occur for the proposed Residential Multiple-Family land use development
if the proposed project would be exposed to transportation noise levels in excess of the City’s
“normally acceptable” land use compatibility standard of 65 A-weighted decibel (dBA) Community
Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) in accordance with Anaheim Municipal Code 18.40.090, or if the
project were exposed to interior noise levels that would exceed the State of California’s interior
noise standard of 45 dBA CNEL.52
According to the Noise Element of the General Plan, environments with ambient noise levels up to
65 dBA CNEL are considered “normally acceptable” for Residential Multiple-Family land uses and
environments with ambient noise levels from 60 dBA to 70 dBA CNEL are considered “Conditionally
Acceptable.” In the event that conditions for the proposed type of land use have been designated
“Conditionally Acceptable,” construction or development should be undertaken only after a detailed
analysis of the noise reduction requirements is made and needed noise insulation features are
included in the design. Conventional construction, but with closed windows and fresh air supply
systems or air conditioning, will normally suffice. Environments with ambient noise levels from 70
dBA to 75 dBA CNEL are considered “Normally Unacceptable,” while environments with ambient
noise levels above 75 dBA CNEL are considered “Clearly Unacceptable,” for Residential Multiple-
Family land uses.

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA ) highway traffic noise prediction model (FHWA RD-77-
108) was used to evaluate existing and future traffic noise conditions in the project vicinity. The
projected future traffic noise levels adjacent to the project site were analyzed to determine
compliance with the City’s noise and land use compatibility standards. The average daily traffic
volumes were provided by Fehr & Peers in their Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) prepared for the
proposed project in July 2022 (Appendix I). The resultant noise levels were weighed and summed
over a 24-hour period in order to determine the CNEL values. The traffic noise modeling input and

The proposed residential units would be exposed to traffic noise levels ranging up to 69.2 dBA CNEL
under year 2035 traffic conditions. These noise levels are within the City’s “Conditionally
Acceptable” range of 60 dBA to 70 dBA CNEL.
Based on the EPA’s Protective Noise Levels,53 with a combination of walls, doors, and windows,
standard construction in accordance with CBC requirements for multi-family residential
developments would provide a minimum of 25 dBA in exterior-to-interior noise reduction with
windows closed and 15 dBA or more with windows open. The proposed project would include
mechanical ventilation systems that would permit windows to remain closed for prolonged periods
of time, and still maintain minimum air circulation requirements. Therefore, with windows shut, the
interior noise level standard of 45 dBA CNEL would be maintained (i.e., 69.2 dBA–25 dBA = 44.2
dBA). Therefore, no mitigation would be required to reduce interior noise impacts from traffic on
adjacent roadways. The proposed project would not conflict with the City’s noise land use

compatibility standards adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect,
and this impact would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
Regarding exterior residential areas, Anaheim Municipal Code 18.40.090 establishes a 65 dBA CNEL
noise standard for exterior noise within common outdoor recreational areas for multi-family
residential land uses. The proposed project’s common outdoor recreational areas would be setback
nearly 100 feet or more from Ball Road and Anaheim Boulevard, and the proposed project’s own
massing would also shield these areas from these roadways’ traffic noise. The massing of the
proposed project alone would be capable of attenuating exterior noise levels from traffic
conservatively by at least 10 dBA at the location of the common outdoor recreational areas. Distance
attenuation would provide a reduction of 6 dBA per doubling of distance from a source. Given these
factors, the proposed project’s common outdoor areas would be subject to exterior noise levels that
are substantially less than the noise levels shown in Table 13and the 65 dBA CNEL standard, as well.
Therefore, no mitigation would be required to reduce exterior noise impacts from traffic on adjacent
roadways. The proposed project would not conflict with Anaheim Municipal Code 18.40.090’s 65
dBA CNEL noise standard for exterior noise within common outdoor recreational areas for multi-
family residential land uses, and this impact would be less than significant, and no mitigation is
required.

Would the project:
a) Result in the loss of availability of a known
mineral resource that would be of value to the
region and the residents of the State?
b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally
important mineral resource recovery site
delineated on a local general plan, specific plan
or other land use plan?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The information and analysis for Mineral Resources impacts is based on the Anaheim General Plan
Green Element. The project site is located in an urbanized area in the City of Anaheim, and no known
mineral resources are present on-site.
Would the project:
a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region
and the residents of the State?
No impact. According to the General Plan, mineral resources are located in parts of East Anaheim,
Anaheim Canyon, and the City’s Hill and Canyon Areas. These areas are identified as being within
Mineral Resource Zone, Class 2 (MRZ-2). The MRZ-2 designation represents, “areas where adequate
information indicates that significant mineral deposits are present or where it is judged that a high
likelihood for their presence exists.”54 The project site is located in the western/central portion of
the City and is not located in either of these zones; therefore, project implementation would not
affect any known mineral deposits. Additionally, the project site is currently zoned C-G and would be
rezoned so that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and the MU Overlay Zone;
therefore, project implementation would not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral
resource. Thus, no impacts would occur.
b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally important mineral resource recovery site delineated
on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan?
No impact. The project site is currently developed. General Plan Figure G-3, Mineral Resource Map,
does not identify any known State or locally designated mineral resources or locally important

levels?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The analysis is based on noise modeling prepared by FCS technicians and the traffic report prepared
for the proposed project. Existing noise sources at the project site include stationary noise from
surrounding land uses and traffic noise along adjacent roadway segments. The dominant noise
source is noise from traffic on I-5, Ball Road, and Anaheim Boulevard.
North of the project site is the East Ball Road, commercial and retail buildings, and Brownson
Technical School in General Commercial land use designation. South of the project site includes a
salvage yard, commercial and industrial buildings in the General Commercial land use designation.
East of the project site sits several commercial and industrial buildings in the Industrial land use
designation. West of the project site is the South Anaheim Boulevard, multi-family residential uses,
fast food restaurants, and commercial buildings in the Medium Density Residential and General
Commercial land use designation.
Based on the surrounding land uses, potential noise source could be from traffic noise, typical
parking lot activities, truck deliveries, and loading/unloading activities.
Regulatory Framework
The City of Anaheim addresses noise in the Noise Element of its General Plan adopted in 2004 and in
the Anaheim Municipal Code. Temporary and long-term noise impacts resultant from the proposed

project would be regulated or otherwise evaluated by City of Anaheim standards designed to protect
public well-being and health.
General Plan
The City of Anaheim General Plan Noise Element contains a variety of goals, policies, and other
guidance pertaining to the control of noise. The following is a list of the City’s noise-related goals and
policies. Certain goals and policies have been omitted, as they are not relevant to the proposed
project (i.e., policies instructing the City to adopt various noise standard, policies related to
heliports, etc.).
Goal 1.1 Protect sensitive land uses from excessive noise through diligent planning and
regulation.
Policies
3) Consider the compatibility of proposed land uses with the noise environment when
preparing, revising or reviewing development proposals.
4) Require mitigation where sensitive uses are to be placed along transportation routes to
ensure that noise levels are minimized through appropriate means of mitigation thereby
maintaining quality of life standards.
5) Encourage proper site planning and architecture to reduce noise impacts.
6) Discourage the siting of sensitive uses in areas in excess of 65 dBA CNEL without
appropriate mitigation.
7) Require that site-specific noise studies be conducted by a qualified acoustic consultant
utilizing acceptable methodologies while reviewing the development of sensitive land uses
or development that has the potential to impact sensitive land uses.
Goal 2.1 Encourage the reduction of noise from transportation-related noise sources such as
motor vehicles, aircraft operations, and railroad movements.
Policies
2) Employ noise mitigation practices, as necessary, when designing future streets and
highways, and when improvements occur along existing road segments. Mitigation
measures should emphasize the establishment of natural buffers or setbacks between the
arterial roadways and adjoining noise-sensitive areas.
3) Require that development generating increased traffic and subsequent increases in the
ambient noise level adjacent to noise-sensitive land uses provide appropriate mitigation
measures.
4) Maintain roadways so that the paving is in good condition to reduce noise-generating
cracks, bumps, and potholes.
5) Require sound walls, berms and landscaping along existing and future freeways and railroad
rights-of-way to beautify the landscape and reduce noise, where appropriate.

Goal 3.1 Protect residents from the effects of “spill over” or nuisance noise emanating from
the City’s activity centers.
Policies
1) Discourage new projects located in commercial or entertainment areas from exceeding
stationary source noise standards at the property line of proximate residential or
commercial uses, as appropriate.
3) Enforce standards to regulate noise from construction activities. Particular emphasis shall
be placed on the restriction of the hours in which work other than emergency work may
occur. Discourage construction on weekends or holidays except in the case of construction
proximate to schools where these operations could disturb the classroom environment.
4) Require that construction equipment operate with mufflers and intake silencers no less
effective than originally equipped.
5) Encourage the use of portable noise barriers for heavy equipment operations performed
within 100 feet of existing residences or make applicant provide evidence as to why the use
of such barriers is infeasible.
The Noise Element also contains the City’s exterior noise and land use compatibility standards, which
are based on the State’s recommended considerations for various land use categories. These
standards are shown in Table 14. The Noise Element notes that the City prefers the CNEL descriptor,
“as it is slightly more conservative (i.e., restrictive) in protecting sensitive land uses.”
The Noise Element also adopts the State’s interior and exterior noise standards for land uses. These
standards are shown in Table 15. It should be noted that these standards differ slightly from those
contained in Table 14. For example, the Table 15 standards establish a 65 dBA CNEL exterior noise
standard for residential uses, whereas the Table 14 standards permit noise exposure of up to 75 dBA
CNEL for these same uses. The Noise Element explains that the Table 15 “exterior noise levels are to
be attained in ‘habitable’ exterior areas and need not encompass the entirety of a property and that
special consideration should be given in the case of infill residential development located along the
City’s arterial corridors. . . in order to achieve an appropriate balance between providing a quality
living environment and attractive project design.”

Municipal Code
The Anaheim Municipal Code contains a limited set of regulations that would apply to the proposed
project’s noise impacts.
Anaheim Municipal Code Section 6.70.010 establishes that no person shall create any sound for
extended periods from any premises that produces a sound pressure level in excess of 60 dBA at any
point on the property line, in accordance with the noise measurement requirements outlined by this
ordinance. These requirements essentially establish that the offending noise must be at least 5 dBA
greater than existing ambient noise levels sans the offending noise source. For example, a 61 dBA
noise source would not be a violation of Section 6.70.010 in an instance where existing ambient
noise levels are greater than 70 dBA.
However, the City has provided certain exemptions from the Section 6.70.010 noise standard.
Among these exemptions is construction or building repair. Construction or building repair activities
occurring between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. are exempt from the 60 dBA regulatory
standard.
Would the project result in:
a) Generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the
vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise
ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies?
Less than significant impact.
Construction Noise Impacts
The City has not adopted construction-related noise thresholds of significance for CEQA
consideration. Section 6.70.010 of the Anaheim Municipal Code establishes a 60 dBA regulatory
noise standard, but it also exempts daytime construction activities from this standard.56 Therefore,
Section 6.70.010 cannot be utilized to assess the proposed project’s construction-related noise
impacts. The General Plan Noise Element contains noise standards for various land use categories,
but it is evident that the General Plan does not intend these limits to apply to temporary
construction noise sources.
Given these factors, the following analysis utilizes the Federal Transit Administration (FTA ) “Detailed
Analysis Construction Noise Criteria” as thresholds of significance to assess the effect of the
proposed project’s construction-related noise impacts at nearby sensitive receptors. For residential
uses, which are the nearest noise-sensitive land use types in the project vicinity, the FTA’s criteria are
an 80 dBA equivalent continuous sound level (L eq (8 hour)) daytime limit, a 70 dBA nighttime limit, and
a 75 dBA day/night average sound level (L dn ) 30-day average.
Construction of the proposed project would generate noise during the estimated 22 months of
demolition, grading, building construction, and other construction phases. Construction activities
56 Nighttime construction activities that take place between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. would be subject to Section 6.70.010, but the
project is not anticipated to require nighttime construction.

would occur during regular construction hours, which are generally between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
on weekdays. Construction would also utilize a standard 5-day work week. Therefore, the proposed
project’s construction would be consistent with Goal 3.1, Policy 3 of the City’s General Plan Noise
Element, which discourages construction on weekends or holidays.
Noise from grading activities is typically the foremost concern when evaluating a project’s
construction noise impact, as grading activities often require extensive use of heavy-duty, diesel-
powered earthmoving equipment. For this project, grading would have the greatest–and noisiest–
construction vehicle requirements, as a fleet of grading vehicles would be required to grade the up
to 10.1-acre project site. Other construction phases would have reduced vehicle requirements. For
example, building construction could at times require a crane truck, several construction forklifts,
and several skid steer loaders. These vehicles are much less powerful than the types of heavy-duty
excavators, graders, and bulldozers that would be required to grade the project site. Given this
consideration, the following analysis assesses noise impacts that may result from the proposed
project’s grading activities.
Grading for the proposed project is estimated to last approximately 6 weeks. During this time,
graders would be utilized to level the site and establish proper slopes and drainages. Excavators
would trench for utilities and excavate for the project’s foundation pads. A bulldozer may assist with
all grading tasks. Ultimately, these vehicles would operate across the up to 10.1-acre site from hour
to hour and day to day. As this occurs, construction noise levels at nearby sensitive receptors would
fluctuate depending on these vehicles’ distances from them. Noise levels would be greater when
these vehicles are in proximity of sensitive receptors and lower when they are positioned farther
away. Notwithstanding this fact, the noise impact associated with the proposed project’s grading has
been conservatively modeled by assuming that a grader and a bulldozer—the two noisiest grading
vehicles—would spend an entire workday operating at minimum project-to-receptor distances.
Table 16shows the proposed project’s estimated grading-related noise impacts at a selection of
nearby noise-sensitive receptors. As shown, noise impacts would not exceed thresholds of
significance for daytime construction activities at the nearest noise-sensitive receptors. Impacts to
more-distant receptors would be lower than the impacts shown in Table 16 and also not in excess of
thresholds of significance. Concerning the FTA’s 70 dBA nighttime criteria, the proposed project
would not require nighttime construction. Therefore, the proposed project would have no potential
to result in exceedances of this criteria. The proposed project would also have no potential to exceed
the FTA’s criteria that is a 75 dBA L dn 30-day average. At Paul Revere Elementary School and Happy
Hippo Preschool, construction-related noise levels would not exceed 65 dBA L eq at any time.
Therefore, there would be no potential for 30-day average noise levels to exceed 75 dBA L dn . At the
nearest sensitive receptor, construction-related noise levels would not exceed 75.4 dBA L eq during
daytime hours. 24-hour L dn impacts (i.e., the effect of the proposed project’s construction noise as
averaged over a 24-hour period) would be lower–approximately 72.0 dBA L dn –because the proposed
project would not generate construction noise after 5:00 p.m. or before 7:00 a.m. Given that
construction noise levels at the nearest sensitive receptors, an assisted living facility approximately
100 feet west of the project site across Anaheim Boulevard, would not exceed approximately 72.0
dBA L dn on a reasonable worst-case construction day scenario, there would be no potential for 30-
day average noise levels at these receptors to exceed the FTA’s 75 dBA L dn criteria. The 30-day

average noise levels would be far lower, because the activities of grading vehicles during any 30-day
period would be spread across the maximum 10.1-acre site. Therefore, the average distance
between these vehicles and the nearest sensitive receptors would be far greater than the minimum
distance utilized in this analysis.

Trucks and other construction-related vehicles would access the project site over the course of all
construction phases. During the proposed project’s 30 -day demolition phase, an average of
approximately 22 haul trucks per day would be required to remove demolition debris from the
project site. The grading phase would not generate a substantial number of haul truck trips because
the site’s cut and fill would be balanced.57 Building construction could generate up to 75 vendor trips
per day. Concerning worker trips, the overlapping period of building construction, paving, and
architectural coatings could generate up to approximately 378 worker trips per day. Typically, a
doubling of traffic volumes is necessary to increase roadside noise levels by 3 dBA, which correlates
with a barely perceptible noise increase. Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road, the primary roadways
that access the project site, are major arterial roadways that, based on the traffic noise modeling
data contained in Appendix G, have an average of 25,100 and 34,700 vehicle trips per day
respectively. The proposed project’s construction-related vehicle trip generation would therefore not
come close to doubling traffic volumes along these roadways. Off-site construction noise increases
due to the proposed project’s on-road construction vehicles would be just fractions of a decibel and
therefore less than significant.
57 Cut and fill balanced on-site refers to the project assumption that neither export nor import of soils would be required for this
implementation of the proposed project on the project site.

Mobile Source Operational Noise Impacts
The City has not adopted Citywide operations-related noise thresholds of significance for CEQA
consideration. Section 6.70.010 of the Anaheim Municipal Code establishes a 60 dBA regulatory
noise standard that would apply to the proposed project’s stationary noise sources, but it would
have no applicability to the proposed project’s mobile source operational noise impacts from trip
generation. The General Plan Noise Element contains noise standards for various land use
categories, but it does not establish how these standards may be applied to CEQA-related analysis.
Therefore, for purposes of this project, the following analysis determines whether a significant
operational noise impact would occur by assessing whether the proposed project would cause
substantial increases in off-site ambient noise levels.
This could occur in two ways:
(1) Project operations would cause ambient noise levels at off-site locations to increase by 3
dBA CNEL or more to or within their “normally unacceptable” or “clearly unacceptable”
noise and land use compatibility categories, as defined by the City’s General Plan Noise
Element (see Table 15), or
(2) Project operations would cause any 5 dBA or greater noise increase. As a 3 dBA increase
represents a barely noticeable change in noise level, this threshold considers any increase in
ambient noise levels to or within a land use’s “normally unacceptable” or “clearly
unacceptable” noise and land use compatibility categories to be significant so long as the
increase can be considered barely perceptible.
For instances when the noise level increase would not necessarily result in “normally unacceptable”
or “clearly unacceptable” noise and land use compatibility, a 5 dBA perceptible increase would still
be considered significant. Pursuant to this threshold, any increases less than 3 dBA CNEL would be
less than significant, as these increases would not be perceptible.
The proposed project would generate operational noise from off-site mobile sources associated with
its daily vehicle trip generation. On a typical weekday, the proposed project is forecast to generate
an estimated 2,776 daily vehicle trips, including 210 AM peak-hour trips and 176 PM peak-hour
trips.58 The noise impact of these vehicle trips on nearby roadways was modeled using the FHWA’s
TNM 2.5 noise model (FHWA RD-77-108). As shown in Table 17, project-related traffic would have a
nominal impact on existing roadside ambient noise levels in the project vicinity. Based on these
findings, 24-hour CNEL impacts would be well below the minimum 3 dBA CNEL threshold of
significance. At the time of project buildout, which is currently anticipated to occur in 2025, project-
related noise impacts would be similar or less-pronounced because ambient background traffic
growth would increase surrounding ambient noise levels by a modest degree. Project-related traffic
would also have no potential to substantially contribute to any cumulatively considerable increases
in future roadside ambient noise levels. First, as shown, project-related traffic would individually
have a minimal impact on roadside ambient noise levels. Second, an assessment of traffic forecasts
through the year 2035—which accounts for both ambient background traffic growth and traffic that

would be associated with known related projects—indicates that no nearby roadway would
experience a doubling of traffic volume. As explained earlier, a doubling of traffic volumes is typically
necessary to increase roadside traffic noise levels by 3 dBA, or 3 dBA CNEL. As such a doubling would
not occur, nor would a 3 dBA CNEL increase, which is the minimum threshold of significance. Given
these considerations, the proposed project’s impact with regard to off-site operational noise would
be less than significant and no mitigation is required.

Stationary Source Operational Noise Impacts
The proposed project’s potential stationary on-site operational noise sources are identified and
discussed below:
Typical residential-grade mechanical ventilation units can generate noise levels up to approximately
70 dBA at a reference distance of 3 feet. Given that the proposed project’s mechanical ventilation
units would be shielded with screens or parapets and located over 100 feet from the nearest
sensitive receptors, which are located along a busy roadway (Anaheim Boulevard), it is unlikely that
these units would be capable of increasing off-site noise levels by a discernible degree. Noise levels
from these mechanical units at the nearest sensitive receptors would be below 40 dBA L eq and not
capable of contributing to substantial noise increases. Additionally, it is worth noting that
surrounding properties also contain heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC ) systems and
other mechanical equipment. Therefore, the proposed project’s inclusion of mechanical ventilation
systems would not introduce a new type of stationary noise source to the location.

The proposed project’s parking facilities and the intermittent noises associated with them (e.g.,
doors slamming, engines starting, trash truck activity, van/small truck deliveries, emergency work,
etc.) would have a nominal effect on surrounding ambient noise levels. The majority of the proposed
project’s parking would be contained in, and confined to, residential garages. Seventy-four surface
parking spaces would be interspersed throughout the site. Surface parking areas would be located
hundreds of feet from nearby sensitive receptors and shielded from them by masonry walls or the
massing of the proposed project’s multi-story residential buildings. The nearest proposed surface
parking lot would be approximately 225 feet from the nearest sensitive receptor located along
Anaheim Boulevard (1315-1331 South Anaheim Boulevard), and it would contain just 26 parking
spaces. According to FTA equations for the prediction of parking facility noise impacts, a facility with
an hourly activity of 26 vehicles—equivalent to the entire capacity of this surface parking lot—would
be expected to result in a noise level of just 40.5 dBA L eq at a reference distance of 50 feet. At the
location of the noise-sensitive multi-family residential land uses, the noise level would be below 30
dBA L eq and incapable of causing or contributing to substantial noise increases. Additionally, it is
worth noting that the existing site is comprised mainly of unshielded surface parking lot area.
Therefore, the proposed project’s inclusion of surface parking areas would not introduce a new type
of stationary noise source to the location.
The proposed project would contain 4,500 square feet of retail uses. Any potential outdoor dining
patios for these uses would be located hundreds of feet from the nearest sensitive receptors. Vocal
noise from speech/conversation averages between 55 and 67 dBA at a reference distance of one
meter, in proportion to background noise levels.59 Given the rapid attenuation of
speech/conversation noise, surrounding noise levels, and distances to receptors, it is unlikely that
vocal noises from outdoor users would be audible at sensitive receptors, let alone capable of causing
or contributing to substantial noise increases. Reasonable use of the proposed project’s dining areas
would not result in discernible noise increases at sensitive receptors.
The primary source of noise associated with the proposed project’s outdoor recreational common
space areas would also be speech/conversation. And as these areas would also be located hundreds
of feet from the nearest sensitive receptors, there is similarly no realistic potential that noise
emanating from these areas would be capable of causing or contributing to substantial noise
increases at sensitive receptors. Reasonable use of the proposed project’s outdoor recreational
common space areas would not result in discernible noise increases at sensitive receptors.
b) Generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels?
Less than significant impact with mitigation. There are no federal, State, or City standards that
would regulate the proposed project’s vibration impacts from temporary construction activities or
long-term operations. Therefore, in order to assess the effect of project-related groundborne
vibration, the following analysis adopts the FTA’s vibration impact criteria as thresholds of
significance for building/structural damage. The FTA construction vibration damage criteria are as
follows:

• 0.5 inches per second peak particle velocity (PPV) for “reinforced concrete, steel or timber”
buildings.
• 0.3 inches per second PPV for “engineered concrete and masonry buildings.”
• 0.2 inches per second PPV for “nonengineered timber and masonry buildings.”
• 0.12 inches per second PPV for “buildings extremely susceptible to vibration damage.”
Groundborne vibrations consist of rapidly fluctuating motions within the ground that have an
average motion of zero. Vibrating objects in contact with the ground can radiate vibration waves
through various soil and rock strata to the foundations of nearby buildings. In extreme cases,
excessive groundborne vibration has the potential to cause structural damage to buildings. Common
sources of groundborne vibration include trains, construction activities, and certain industrial
operations. Vibration from traffic on smooth roadways is rarely perceptible, even from larger
vehicles such as buses or trucks. The proposed project’s construction and operational groundborne
vibration impacts are analyzed separately below.
Short-term Construction Vibration Impacts
Construction of the proposed project would require a variety of large, steel-tracked earthmoving
vehicles and vibratory rollers. Of the proposed project’s construction vehicles, vibratory rollers would
produce the greatest groundborne vibration levels. According to the FTA, vibratory rollers can
generate groundborne vibration levels up to 0.21 inches per second PPV at a reference distance of
25 feet.
For the proposed project, vibratory rollers would be utilized to compact soils during grading and
asphalt during paving. This could expose nearby structures to groundborne vibrations caused by
such compacting activities. The nearest structures to the project site are two commercial warehouse
buildings, a furniture wholesale store located at 1303 South Claudina Street (“M&J Design
Furniture”) and a store located at 1315 South Claudina Street (“Classic Scooter Parts”). The FTA
construction vibration damage criteria that would apply to these structures is the 0.3 inch per
second PPV criteria for “engineered concrete and masonry” buildings. As noted, vibratory rollers can
generate groundborne vibration levels up to 0.21 inch per second PPV at a distance of 25 feet.
Because the store located at 1315 South Claudina Street is over 40 feet east of the project site, it
follows that it would not be exposed to vibratory roller-related groundborne vibration levels in
excess of 0.21 inch per second PPV. And because this groundborne vibration level is below the 0.3
inch per second PPV criteria for this structure, it follows that it would not be exposed to substantial
construction-related groundborne vibrations. Therefore, impacts to this structure would be less than
significant.
However, the furniture wholesale store located at 1303 South Claudina Street is located just 5 feet
east of the project site. The proposed project’s vibratory rollers would not operate exactly at the
property line and 5 feet from this building, but they may nevertheless operate within approximately
15 feet of this structure. At this distance, vibratory rollers could expose 1303 South Claudina Street
to groundborne vibration levels up to 0.452 inch per second PPV, which would exceed this

structure’s 0.3 inch per second PPV threshold of significance. Without mitigation, this impact would
be potentially significant.
To ensure that the furniture wholesale store located at 1303 South Claudina Street is not exposed to
potentially damaging, and therefore significant, levels of groundborne vibration, MM NOI-1 is
adopted to establish setback restrictions for vibratory rollers operating in the vicinity of this building.
MM NOI-1 would require that vibratory rollers maintain a setback of at least 25 feet from 1303
South Claudina Street at all times. This would ensure that it is not exposed to construction-related
groundborne vibrations in excess of 0.21 inch per second PPV, which is below the 0.3 inch per
second PPV threshold of significance for this structure. Therefore, after the implementation of MM
NOI-1, the proposed project’s construction-related groundborne vibration impact would be less than
significant.
Other structures in the vicinity of the proposed project are located farther from the project site than
the aforementioned two commercial warehouse buildings and would be at no risk of experiencing
potentially damaging levels of groundborne vibration due to the proposed project’s construction
activities.
Operational Vibration Impacts
During project operations, there would be no significant stationary sources of groundborne
vibration, such as heavy equipment or industrial operations. The proposed project’s related vehicle
travel would not be considered a significant source of vibration, as vehicle travel rarely generates
perceptible groundborne vibration. As a result, the proposed project’s potential to generate
excessive groundborne vibration levels due to its operations would be less than significant.
c) For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or, where
such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport,
would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise
levels?
Less than significant impact. A significant impact would occur if the proposed project would expose
people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels for a project located within
the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been
adopted, within 2 miles of a public airport or public use airport.
The nearest public airport to the project site is the Fullerton Municipal Airport, located
approximately 5.8 miles northwest of the project site. Because of the distance from and orientation
of the airport runways, the project site is located well outside of the 65 dBA CNEL airport noise
contours. The project site is not located within the vicinity of a private airstrip. While aircraft noise is
occasionally audible on the project site from aircraft flyovers, aircraft noise associated with nearby
airport activity would not expose people residing or working near the project site to excessive noise
levels. Therefore, implementation of the proposed project would not expose persons residing or
working in the project vicinity to noise levels from airport activity that would be in excess of
normally acceptable standards for multi-family residential land use development. Impacts associated
with public airport noise would be less than significant.

Less than significant impact. As described above, the City had a population of 341,245 persons as of
January 1, 2022.61 The City has an average of 3.16 persons per household.62 The project proposes to
construct up to 249 residential flats and townhomes, meaning it would increase the City’s
population by up to 787 persons.63 This is approximately 0.2 percent of the City’s existing
population. The City’s 2014–2021 Housing Element projected that the City would reach a population
of 369,107 persons by 2020.64 Because the City has not yet reached this population in 2022, and the
proposed project would not result in an exceedance of this projection, the population growth
resulting from the proposed project can be considered planned growth.

Fire stations are strategically located in the City of Anaheim to ensure an efficient demand response
to all risk hazards and to maintain recommendations for response times. The project site is currently
serviced by Anaheim Fire & Rescue via the existing infrastructureAdditionally, both automatic and
mutual aid agreements exist with surrounding jurisdictions.
The nearest station to the project site is Fire Station No. 7, located 1.30 miles east of the project site
at 2222 East Ball Road. The proposed project would be required to comply with all currently adopted
codes and standards at the time of plan submittal and to pay Fire Department development fees.
Because the proposed project would comply with the required development fees and all codes and
standards and project site is currently serviced by Anaheim Fire & Rescue via the existing
infrastructure, impacts associated with fire protection services would be less than significant.

b) Police protection?
Less than significant impact. The Anaheim Police Department provides law enforcement and crime
prevention services to the project site. Officers operate out of four stations and patrol an area of
49.7 square miles, divided into four districts – West, Central, South, and East. The police stations are
located as follows:
• Main Station, located at 425 South Harbor Boulevard
• East Station, located at 8201 East Santa Ana Canyon Road
• West Station, located at 320 South Beach Boulevard
• South Station, located at 198 South West Place
Police services provided include patrol, investigations, traffic enforcement, traffic control, vice and
narcotics enforcement, airborne patrol, crime suppression, community policing, tourist-oriented
policing, and detention facilities. Based on consultation with the Anaheim Police Department, the
proposed project would not generate demand for additional staffing, as the existing site already
receives service and the potential net increase in calls resulting from the proposed project would not
be substantially higher. However, in the future if additional police staff are needed, funding for any
new personnel needed to maintain acceptable service levels would come from the City of Anaheim’s
General Fund. Property taxes and other fees assessed for the property would contribute to the
General Fund revenues.
The project site is served by the Anaheim Police Department. The nearest police station to the
project site is the main station, located 1.6 miles north of the project site at 425 South Harbor
Boulevard. Existing Police Department facilities would be sufficient to serve the additional demand
associated with the proposed project along with the existing demand of the area. For these reasons,
the proposed project would not result in a need for new or expanded police protection facilities.
Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
c) Schools?
Less than significant impact. The proposed project is within the Anaheim Elementary School District
boundary. The current district-wide enrollment is 15,252 students; current capacity is 17,725. The
project site is within the enrollment boundaries of Paul Revere Elementary School. Paul Revere
Elementary School is located at 140 West Guinida Lane, which is 0.25 mile south of the project site.
Paul Revere Elementary School has a current enrollment of 744 students in grades K-6 for the 2021-
22 school year.67 Current student generation factors used by the Anaheim Elementary School District
are 0.23 per unit for single-family attached homes, and 0.15 per unit for multi-family units. Based on
the higher generation rate of 0.23 students per unit for a more conservative estimate, the proposed
project would generate 58 students in grades K-6. The increase of students as a result of the
proposed project would not cause the elementary school district to exceed the enrollment capacity;
therefore, the proposed project would not significantly impact school services. Furthermore, the

proposed project would be required to pay the current school district development fees for single-
family and multi-family attached housing.
The proposed project is within the Anaheim Union High School District. Student generation factors
are 0.0806 for junior high schools and 0.1548 for high schools. Based on these student generation
factors; the proposed project would generate approximately 20 junior high school students and 39
high school students. This increase of students would not cause the high school district to exceed the
enrollment capacity. Furthermore, the proposed project would be required to pay the current
development impact fees for residential and commercial space. Payment of the fees would satisfy
the requirements of AB 2926 and SB 50 to offset impacts to school services. Therefore, impacts
would be less than significant.
d) Parks?
Less than significant impact. The City of Anaheim’s Citywide standard of parkland is 2 acres per
1,000 residents. Further discussed in Section 2.16, Recreation, the City is currently meetings its
parkland standard. The project site is not located within a Park Deficiency Area (defined as areas
outside of a 0.5-mile radius of a public park), according to the General Plan Green Element Figure G-
1.68 The proposed project would bring new residents, which would create additional demand on
park and recreational facilities. The nearest parks are Paul Revere Park, located at 160 West Guinida
Lane, which is 0.25 mile south of the project site, and Walnut Grove Park, located at 905 South
Anaheim Boulevard, which is 0.3 mile north of the project site. The City of Anaheim has adopted a
park in lieu fees resolution. The proposed project would comply with the impact fees for the
proposed residential units, as discussed in further detail in Section 2.16, Recreation.
Furthermore, the proposed project would provide amenities including open space passive park
areas, private patios, common amenity areas. The proposed project would provide 118,955 square
feet of total qualified recreation-leisure areas, which would provide an alternative to public
community gathering areas for residents of the proposed project. Furthermore, the proposed
project is located 0.25 mile south of Paul Revere Elementary School and 0.3 mile northwest of
Orange Grove Elementary School, which would provide additional recreational opportunities and
community space through formal and informal joint use agreements with the City.69
According to the City of Anaheim Development Impact Fee Justification Study, impact fees are used
for the acquisition, installation, and construction of public facilities identified on a needs lists and
appropriate administrative costs to mitigate the direct and cumulative impacts of new development
in the City. Fees are based on an equivalent development unit method to fairly allocate costs to new
development and determine the appropriate fee levels that would provide a source of funds to pay

for the proposed facilities.70 With payment of the required fees, impacts would be less than
significant.
e) Other public facilities?
Less than significant impact. The Anaheim Public Library system includes a central library and six
branch libraries, along with the Anaheim Heritage Center, Books on the Go! (self-service kiosk at
Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center), and a mobile library. The Anaheim Public
Library system has 308,223 library card holders, with 1.3 million annual visits in Fiscal Year
2018/2019. Central Library, which is located at 500 West Broadway, would serve the proposed
project. Central Library is located 1.14 miles northwest of the project site. Additionally, Euclid Library
is 1.8 miles west of the project site.
Population growth affects online library resources because the basis for licensing fees for databases,
e-books, and other digital resources are generally the population of the library’s service area. With
additional residents to serve, the proposed project would reduce the overall availability per capita of
books, media, computers, and library public service space. Therefore, in order to maintain current
per capita levels and licensing agreements, the City would need to provide additional physical and
virtual resources to the Anaheim library system.
The proposed project’s impacts to the overall availability per capita of books, media, computers, and
library public service space would not result in significant physical or environmental impacts, as the
population growth resulting from the proposed project is within current City projections. Therefore,
project-related impacts to library facilities would be less than significant, and no mitigation measures
are required.
Mitigation Measures

2.16 Recreation
a) Would the project increase the use of existing
neighborhood and regional parks or other
recreational facilities such that substantial
physical deterioration of the facility would occur
or be accelerated?
b) Does the project include recreational facilities or
require the construction or expansion of
recreational facilities, which might have an
adverse physical effect on the environment?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The City of Anaheim owns and operates 57 parks totaling nearly 800 acres. Park facilities include
neighborhood, community, and special use parks, and riding and hiking trails.71 The City currently
maintains park dedication standards that require new development in the City to ensure that 2 acres
of parkland will be developed for each 1,000 residents.72 Depending on the magnitude of residential
development, the dedication may be in the form of direct dedication of improved land, the payment
of fees in lieu of dedication, or a combination of both. The City has a park dedication ordinance, and
every year the City Council adopts a resolution setting park dedication fees.
The nearest park to the proposed project is Paul Revere Park, located at 160 West Guinida Lane,
which is 0.25 mile south of the project site. Paul Revere Park, Anaheim’s newest park, is 0.5 acres.
Recreational amenities include a children’s play area, fitness zone, picnic tables, and volleyball.73
Future residents would also utilize Walnut Grove Park, located at 905 South Anaheim Boulevard,
which is 0.3 mile north of the project site. Walnut Grove Park opened in 2001 and is 3 acres.
Recreational amenities include a children’s play area, outdoor basketball court, picnic shelters, picnic
tables, restrooms, and volleyball.74

a) Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other
recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be
accelerated?
Less than significant impact. The proposed project would include up to 249 residential flats and
townhomes. The City has an estimated population of 341,245 people as of January 1, 2022. The
approximate persons per household as of 2020 is estimated to be 3.16 persons.75 As discussed
previously in Section 2.14, Population and Housing, given that the proposed project would develop
up to 249 dwelling units, the proposed project is estimated to generate up to 787 new residents,
which would increase the demand on existing neighborhood and regional parks.76 Based on the
City’s park dedication standards of 2 acres per 1,000 residents,77 the City would need to provide
approximately 682.49 acres of parkland to serve the current population of the City. Because the City
currently owns and operates nearly 800 acres of parkland,78 the City is currently exceeding park
dedication standards.
The proposed project would provide 118,955 square feet of total qualified recreation-leisure area,
which consists of 101,595square feet of common area and 17,360 square feet of private areas. The
required recreation-leisure area for 249 units is 49,800 square feet.79 However, the proposed project
would not develop additional parks. Therefore, the proposed project would comply with the City’s
park dedication ordinance, which requires developers to pay in lieu fees for each residential unit.
Because the City is currently exceeding park standards and with payment of the required fees,
impacts would be less than significant.
b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of
recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment?
No impact. The proposed project does not propose the construction or expansion of public
recreational facilities. The proposed project would result in up to 249 new residential units and up to
787 new residents, which would place additional demand on the existing parks, including the
nearest parks, Paul Revere Park and Walnut Grove Park. The City is currently meeting its park
dedication standards. Furthermore, the proposed project would comply with the City’s park
dedication ordinance and pay in lieu fees to the City. Therefore, the proposed project would not
result in adverse physical impacts associated with such facilities. There would be no impact.

Would the project:
a) Conflict with a program plan, ordinance or policy
of the circulation system, including transit,
roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities?
b) Would the project conflict or be inconsistent with
CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.3, subdivision (b)?
c) Substantially increase hazards due to a geometric
design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous
intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm
equipment)?
d) Result in inadequate emergency access?
Environmental Evaluation
Setting
The analysis contained in this section is partially based on the TIA prepared for the proposed project
by Fehr & Peers in July 2022, and the VMT Analysis prepared by Fehr & Peers in June 2022 included
in Appendix I. The City’s applicable project-specific thresholds are described below.
Changes to the CEQA Guidelines were adopted in December 2018 to implement SB 743. CEQA
Guideline 15064.3, which describes criteria for evaluating a project's transportation impacts,
provides that VMT is generally "the most appropriate measure of transportation impacts," and that
except for roadway capacity projects, a project's effect on traffic delays "shall not constitute a
significant environmental impact." These provisions went into effect July 1, 2020. The VMT Analysis
evaluated the applicable City of Anaheim screening thresholds to determine whether the proposed
project would be expected to create impacts related to VMT. Although LOS is no longer a CEQA issue,
LOS is discussed in the City’s Congestion Management Program (CMP) and is provided here as an
impact analysis for consistency with the City’s CMP requirements.
Would the project:
a) Conflict with a program plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system, including
transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities?
Less than significant impact. The Orange County CMP aims to support regional mobility objectives
by reducing traffic congestion, to provide a mechanism for coordinating land use and development
decisions that support the regional economy, and to support gas tax funding eligibility. The CMP
contains a number of policies designed to monitor and address system performance issues. The

OCTA developed the policies that makeup Orange County’s CMP in coordination with local
jurisdictions, Caltrans, and the SCAQMD.
According to the 2021 Orange County CMP, the Level of Service (LOS) standard for CMP intersections
is LOS E or better (i.e., an Intersection Capacity Utilization [ICU] of 1.00 or better). The following
intersections are identified as CMP intersections:
• Harbor Boulevard and I-5 Northbound Ramps
• Harbor Boulevard and I-5 Southbound Ramps
The TIA evaluated the LOS at the CMP intersections and determined that they are operating at
acceptable LOS under General Plan Development (2035) conditions. Therefore, implementation of
the proposed project would result in less than significant impacts with respect to CMP consistency.
Pedestrian facilities include sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian signals and multiuse trails. The
roadways in the study area generally provide sidewalks on both sides of the street. Curbside
sidewalks are provided on Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road along the project site frontage. The
proposed project would provide a pedestrian path internally between the residential units,
recreational amenity area and retail stores.
Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road both provide Class II bike facilities under the existing conditions.
The City proposes future Class II facilities extension on Anaheim Boulevard to the south and Ball
Road to the east and west which would close the bike lane gap near the project site. Bicycle parking
would be provided consistent with Anaheim Municipal Code requirements.
Two transit routes serve the project site. Route 46 has stops on Ball Road and Route 47 has stops on
Anaheim Boulevard. The closest bus stop to the project site is located on Ball Road approximately
130 feet east of the intersection of Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road. The proposed project is not
expected to conflict with the existing bus stops or bus route or degrade transit circulation or access
to transit.
The proposed project would not result in any adverse impacts to public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian
facilities, therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
b) Would the project conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.3, subdivision
(b)?
Less than significant impact. The proposed project is located in a TPA, which is defined by areas
within a 0.5-mile radius around an existing major transit stop 80 or an existing stop along a high-
quality transit corridor..
81 The OCTA operates Bus Route 47 along Anaheim Boulevard adjacent to the
project site. Bus Route 47 services the project site at the “Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road” stop
80 Public Resources Code Section 21064.3 - ‘Major transit stop’ means a site containing an existing rail transit station, a ferry terminal
served by either a bus or rail transit service, or the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval
of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoon peak commute periods.
81 Public Resources Code Section 21155 - For purposes of this section, a ‘high-quality transit corridor’ means a corridor with fixed
route bus service with service intervals no longer than 15 minutes during peak commute hours.

with headways of 15 minutes in the AM peak period (7:00 a.m. through 9:00 a.m.) and PM peak
period (4:00 p.m. through 6:00 p.m.).
Per the City’s Guidelines, if the proposed project is located within a TPA and satisfies the four
requirements below, then the proposed project is presumed to have a less than significant impact on
VMT.82
1. Has a FAR of greater than 0.75;
2. Includes less parking for use by residents, customers, or employees of the project than
required by the City (if the City requires the project to supply parking);
3. Is consistent with the applicable Sustainable Communities Strategy (as determined by the
Lead Agency, with input from the MPO); or
4. Does not replace affordable residential units with a smaller number of moderate or high-
income residential units.
1. FAR Greater Than 0.75
The project proposes a total gross floor area (GFA) of 452,179 square feet on a 465,220-square-foot
lot, resulting in a FAR of 0.97. Therefore, the overall project FAR is greater than 0.75 that satisfies this
requirement.
2. Includes Less Parking Than Required
Anaheim Municipal Code Section 18.42.030 establishes residential parking ratios for calculating the
required number of residential parking spaces, and Anaheim Municipal Code Section 18.42.040
requires four spaces per 1,000 square feet of general retail sales. The proposed project requires 622
residential parking spaces and 19 nonresidential parking spaces. The proposed project would
provide approximately 430 garage parking spaces, 74 surface lot parking spaces, and 20 retail spaces
(total of 524), which are fewer than the 622 residential parking spaces and 19 retail spaces. Although
the proposed project would provide more retail parking spaces than the Anaheim Municipal Code
requires, the total number of parking spaces for the entire project is less than the combined
required number of parking spaces. The proposed project is providing fewer parking spaces than
required; however, the proposed project is also taking advantage of a density bonus that allows for
fewer parking spaces than the code requires. Under the density bonus 441 parking spaces are
required and therefore the proposed project satisfies this requirement.
3. Sustainable Communities Strategy Consistency
The proposed project was reviewed against the assumptions in the SCAG 2020 Regional
Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS). The land use growth assumptions
were reviewed in the Orange County Transportation Analysis Model (OCTAM) Version 5.0 which
reflects the SCAG 2020 RTP/SCS data set. The Traffic Analysis Zone (TAZ) where the proposed project
is located was reviewed and the growth proposed by the proposed project would not exceed the

land use growth for the TAZ where the proposed project is located. The proposed project is also well
within the SCAG 2020 RTP/SCS growth assumptions for the City of Anaheim as a whole. The
proposed project also does not conflict with any SCAG 2020 RTP/SCS roadway network, pedestrian,
bicycle, or transit projects. Therefore, the proposed project is considered consistent with the current
SCS.
4. Replacing Affordable Units
The proposed project is not replacing any residential units and therefore satisfies this requirement.
The proposed project meets all of requirements of TPA screening and can be presumed to have a
less than significant transportation impact related to VMT, and no mitigation is required.
c) Substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous
intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)?
Less than significant impact. Vehicles would access the project site via four driveways, including one
entry from East Ball Road at the north side of the project site, two entries from South Anaheim
Boulevard on the west side of the project site, and one entry from South Claudina Street on the
northeast side of the project site. An internal private roadway system would provide two-way access
to the surface parking lots and to the parking garages. The proposed project driveway and internal
roadways would be developed to comply with the City Building Division and Fire & Rescue
Department standards. The proposed project would develop a 4,500-square-foot retail building and
up to 249 residential flats and townhomes and would not include the use of any incompatible
vehicles or equipment, such as farm equipment. The proposed project is surrounded by commercial,
residential, and industrial uses. Therefore, the proposed project’s mixed use development would be
compatible with the surrounding uses. Thus, the proposed project would not substantially increase
hazards due to design or incompatible uses, impacts are less than significant, and no mitigation is
required.
d) Result in inadequate emergency access?
Less than significant impact. The proposed project would provide emergency access via four
driveways, including one entry from East Ball Road at the north side of the project site, two entries
from South Anaheim Boulevard on the west side of the project site, and one entry from South
Claudina Street on the northeast side of the project site. The proposed project would have 26-foot-
wide fire access lanes throughout the project site with turning radiuses that are compliant with City
Building Division and Fire & Rescue Department standards. This compliance includes that the
proposed project driveways and internal circulation would accommodate standard fire lane turning
radiuses and hammerhead turnaround maneuvers. To ensure compliance, the Anaheim Fire &
Rescue would review project plans for final approval prior to issuance of a Building Permit. Further, it
is not anticipated that construction of the proposed project would require the closure of any public
roadways. Temporary construction activities would not impede the use of the road for emergencies
or access for emergency response vehicles. Thus, impacts are less than significant, and no mitigation
is required.

Environmental Evaluation
Setting
According to the City’s UWMP, the City relies on a combination of imported water, local
groundwater, and a small amount of recycled water to meet its water needs. The City works together
with two primary agencies, Metropolitan and the OCWD, to ensure a reliable water supply that
would continue to serve the City during periods of drought and water shortages. Historically, the
City’s water supply primarily came from a mixture of groundwater (70 percent) and imported water
(30 percent) from MWD; however, the City has taken many of its wells off-line as of March 2020 and
is operating closer to a 60/40 split. As of April 2021, there are only four active wells, while the
remaining wells have been taken off-line due to either mechanical issues or a group of chemicals
referred to as PFAS . Over the next several years, the City will construct groundwater treatment
facilities to remove PFAS to acceptable State-mandated levels after which groundwater usage will

meet or exceed historical levels consistent with increased groundwater supplies due to the
expansion of OCWD’s Groundwater Replenishment System.83
The City’s Sewer and Storm Drain Maintenance Division is responsible for maintenance of the City’s
sewer and storm drain lines. The proposed project is within the CAMPSS, adopted in December
2017. The CAMPSS study area consists of approximately 10,627 gross acres and a cumulative total of
23,777 linear feet of sewer pipelines that serve a population of approximately 134,000 people.84 The
area is essentially fully developed except for future development consisting mainly of the Platinum
Triangle and Anaheim Resort areas. The project site drains into the trunk sewer on Ball Road and
Walnut Street.85 The City recycles a small portion of wastewater at the downtown Water Recycling
Facility; however, the City sends most of its collected wastewater to the Orange County Sanitation
District (OC San) for treatment and disposal.86
The APU Department’s Electrical Division currently provides electricity to residents and business
industry, including the project site. The project site is currently fully built out and is served by the
APU Department Electrical Division. The distribution system consists of approximately 1,200 circuit
miles of transmission and distribution lines, over 700 miles of which are underground. To facilitate
the safe and efficient transfer of electricity to residences and businesses, 13 distribution substations
are located throughout the City. Anaheim obtains its electric supply from its resources located in or
near Anaheim and across the western United States. To round out its electric supply, the City of
Anaheim participates in seasonal power exchanges as well as additional market purchases where
necessary.87 Telecommunication services are provided to the City through various companies
including AT&T, Spectrum, Cox Communications, and Frontier.
Would the project:
a) Require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater
treatment or stormwater drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities,
the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental effects?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The proposed project would connect to
existing water and sanitary lines and would include the installation of stormwater management
systems on-site.
Water
The proposed project’s water needs would be met by the City. The proposed project would connect
to existing 10-inch water lines on South Claudina Street and the existing 18-inch water lines on East
Ball Road, and the existing 12-inch water lines on South Anaheim Boulevard and would not require
additional water infrastructure to be built of expanded. Further, as described previously in Impact

2.14(a), the proposed project is estimated to result in approximately 787 new residents. As discussed
in Section 2.10, Hydrology and Water Quality, using the UWMP methodology,88 the proposed project
would generate a total water demand of 40,215.7 GPD or approximately 45.05 AFY. This represents a
conservative estimate, which does not account for the existing water demand currently generated by
the project site. According to the UWMP, the total water supply for the City is approximately 62,302
AFY. The proposed project’s additional demand constitutes approximately 0.07 percent of the total
demand. Therefore, the proposed project does not require and would not result in the construction
of new water facilities or expansion of existing facilities. Impacts would be less than significant, and
no mitigation is required.
Wastewater
The City’s Sewer and Storm Drain Maintenance Division is responsible for maintenance of the City’s
sewer and storm drain lines. The project site is currently developed, and the proposed project is
within the CAMPSS.89 The proposed project would connect to the existing sewer lines on Ball Road
and Anaheim Boulevard. The average flow factor for townhome units is 240 GPD per dwelling unit
(GPD/du) based on the CAMPSS and 195 GPD/thousand square feet (ksf) for commercial. According
to the Sewer Study prepared for the proposed project (Appendix F), sewage from the proposed 139
townhomes would add an average flow of 23.17 gallons per minute (gpm), or 33,360 GPD, to a
proposed manhole on Anaheim Blvd and Winston Road. The use of an on-site private lift station is
not needed since the residential flow is proposed to be split between the two discharge manholes
for the proposed project. The remaining proposed 110 townhomes, and 4,500 square feet of retail
space would add an average flow of 18.94 gpm, or 27,278 GPD, to a manhole on Ball Road. The
average daily flow increase (net additional flow) to the Ball Road sewer collection system would be
21,541 GPD, and the average daily flow increase to the Anaheim Blvd. sewer collection system would
be 21,280 GPD. The total flow from the proposed project would be 60,638 GPD, for a total average
daily flow increase to the sewer collection system of 42,821 GPD.
According to the Sewer Study, sewer system improvements are not required on Ball Road. However,
there is a capacity deficient sewer segment on the northerly Katella Avenue line. Sewer system
improvements upstream of the Harbor Boulevard and Katella Avenue intersection are not required
for the proposed project. However, model results based on the existing conditions show that there is
currently insufficient capacity within certain segments of the northerly Katella sewer of the parallel
Katella system that would be exacerbated by the increased sewer flow generated by the proposed
project for both existing and buildout scenarios. A proposed residential development, Midway
Apartments, is anticipated to address the recommended diversion improvements at the Harbor
Boulevard and Katella Avenue intersection to alleviate these capacity deficient sewer segments. Prior
to issuance of the first Building Permit for the proposed project, if the diversion at Harbor Boulevard
and Katella Avenue is not fully constructed and operational, the Owner/Developer shall construct
the diversion and make it operational (MM UTL-1). Therefore, impacts would be less than significant
with mitigation incorporated.

Stormwater
The proposed project would include the installation of stormwater management systems on-site. As
discussed in Section 2.7, Geology and Soils, and Section 2.10, Hydrology and Water Quality, the
proposed project would prepare and implement a SWPPP and implement BMPs , which would
ensure that impacts related to stormwater would be less than significant. Additionally, the proposed
project would implement MM GEO-1 to further reduce the less than significant impacts. Therefore,
the proposed project would not substantially increase stormwater drainage such that new or
expanded facilities or relocation would be required. Impacts would be less than significant.
Electric Power, Natural Gas, and Telecommunications Facilities
APU, SoCalGas, and local telecommunications companies operate and maintain transmission and
distribution infrastructure in the project area and currently serve the existing uses on the project
site. Impacts associated with the proposed project’s electricity demand and natural gas demand are
discussed in Section 2.6, Energy.
The site is currently fully developed and served by telecommunications infrastructure. The proposed
project would connect to the existing telecommunications infrastructure. Therefore, the proposed
project would not require the installation or development of new or improved telecommunications
facilities such that environmental impacts would occur. Impacts would be less than significant.
b) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future

works together with two primary agencies, MWD and OCWD to ensure a safe and reliable water
supply that would continue to serve the community in periods of drought and shortage. The City’s
main source of water supply is groundwater from the OC Basin. The City has historically relied on
approximately 70 percent groundwater (previous 10-year average) and 30 percent imported water
from MWD to supply its customersalthough the City has taken many of its wells off-line as of March
2020 to address concentrations of PFAS in the groundwater. Over the next several years, the City will
construct groundwater treatment facilities to remove PFAS to acceptable State-mandated levels
after which groundwater usage will meet or exceed historical levels consistent with increased
groundwater supplies due to the expansion of OCWD’s Groundwater Replenishment System,
reducing the percentage imported from MWD. MWDs principal sources of water are the Colorado
River via the Colorado River Aqueduct and the Lake Oroville watershed in Northern California
through the State Water Project. Storage is also a major component of MWD dry year resource
management strategy. MWDs likelihood of having adequate supply capability to meet projected
demands is highly dependent on its storage resources.
Based on a conservative estimate that does not account for the current water demand of the project
site, the proposed project would generate a water demand of 40,215.7 GPD or approximately 45.05
AFY, which is approximately 0.07 percent of the total demand. Thus, there is water supply available
for the City, and the water supply demanded by the proposed project can be accommodated by the
existing supply.

City demands are projected to be met with groundwater, imported water, and recycled water
supplies with available Metropolitan surplus supplies. The proposed project’s water demand would
be accommodated in multiple dry year scenarios. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.

c) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the
project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the
provider’s existing commitments?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. The City’s Sewer and Storm Drain
Maintenance Division is responsible for maintenance of the City’s sewer and storm drain lines. The
proposed project is within the CAMPSS study area, which consists of approximately 10,627 gross
acres and a cumulative total of 23,777 linear feet of sewer pipelines that serve a population of
approximately 134,000 people.90
The project site is currently fully built out and is currently served by the City’s Sewer and Storm Drain
Maintenance Division. The Sewer Study prepared for the proposed project calculated flow the
increase as compared to the existing uses on the project site. According to the Sewer Study prepared
for the proposed project, the sewer collection system is currently deficient in the Katella Avenue
sewer under the existing conditions, and the additional flow generated by the proposed project to
the sewer collection system would exacerbate this deficiency. According to the Sewer Study, the
average daily flow increase (net additional flow) to the Ball Road sewer collection system would be
21,541 GPD, and the average daily flow increase to the Anaheim Blvd. sewer collection system would
be 21,280 GPD. The total flow from the proposed project would be 60,638 GPD, for a total average
daily flow increase to the sewer collection system of 42,821 GPD. It is anticipated that the deficiency
in the North Katella sewer would be relieved through currently planned developments. As
previously discussed, prior to issuance of the first Building Permit for the proposed project, if the
diversion at Harbor Boulevard and Katella Avenue is not fully constructed and operational, the
Owner/Developer shall construct the diversion and make it operational (MM UTL-1).

As shown in the table above, there would be adequate treatment capacity for the proposed project’s
sewer flows. Additionally, as demonstrated in the Sewer Study, there is adequate sewer capacity
available to accommodate sewer flows from the proposed project. Therefore, impacts would be less
than significant.
d) Generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local
infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals?
Less than significant impact. Republic Services is a private recycling and nonhazardous solid waste
hauler and provides solid waste services to the City. Republic Services collects solid waste for all
residential, commercial, and industrial waste and recycling services. Solid waste is disposed of in
Orange County landfills. Currently, there are three active landfills that are owned and operated by the
County, including Frank R. Bowerman Landfill in Irvine, Olinda Alpha Landfill in Brea, and Prima
Deshecha Landfill in San Juan Capistrano. In order to ensure that the maximum permitted daily
tonnage at a particular landfill is not exceeded, refuse trucks may have to transport material to one or
the other.91 The majority of this waste is taken to the Olinda Alpha Sanitary Landfill, which is located in
the City of Brea. The Olinda Alpha Landfill is the closest facility to the City and would likely be the solid
waste facility most often receiving waste from the project site.92 According to the California
Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) Solid Waste Information System (SWIS),
the landfills that serve the City have the following capacities, as described in Table 21.

CalRecycle provides a solid waste generation factor to estimate the amount of solid waste generated
by residential projects. Using the generation rate of 12.23 pounds (lbs) per household per day for
residential development, the residential component of the proposed project would generate
approximately 3,045.27 lbs per day of solid waste, or approximately 1.52 tons per day. Additionally,

using the generation rate of 2.5 lbs per square foot per day for commercial retail use, the retail
component of the proposed project would generate 11,250 lbs per day of solid wastes, or
approximately 5.63 tons per day. Therefore, the combined 7.15 tons of waste per day would
represent approximately 0.09 percent of the maximum daily permitted throughput for the Olinda
Alpha Landfill, which would likely receive the most solid waste from the project site. Therefore, the
existing landfills have sufficient capacity to serve the proposed project and solid waste generated
during construction and operations would represent a negligible increase compared to the daily
permitted tonnage at landfills. Additionally, the proposed project would also include recycling
programs to reduce solid waste and comply with all applicable regulations for solid waste. Thus,
impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
e) Comply with federal, State, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations
related to solid waste?
Less than significant impact. The City complies with all federal, State, and local statutes and
regulations related to solid waste. Regulations specifically applicable to the proposed project include
the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939), SB 2202, SB 1016, 2019
CALGreen Section 4.408, and AB 341, which requires multiple-family residential development and
commercial uses to implement recycling programs.
In 1989, the Legislature adopted the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939),
in order to “reduce, recycle, and re-use solid waste generated in the State to the maximum extent
feasible.” AB 939 established a waste management hierarchy and required that each county prepare
a new Integrated Waste Management Plan and each city prepare a Source Reduction and Recycling
Element (SRRE) by July 1, 1991. The SRRE is required to identify how each jurisdiction would meet
the mandatory State waste diversion goal of 50 percent by and after the year 2000.
SB 2202 made a number of changes to the municipal solid waste diversion requirements under AB
939. These changes included a revision to the statutory requirement for 50 percent diversion of solid
waste to clarify that local governments shall continue to divert 50 percent of all solid waste on and
after January 1, 2000.
SB 1016 introduced a per capita disposal measurement system that measures the 50 percent
diversion requirement using a disposal measurement equivalent. The Bill repealed the State Water
Board 2-year process, requiring instead that the State Water Board make a finding whether each
jurisdiction was in compliance with the Act’s diversion requirements for calendar year 2006 and to
determine compliance for the 2007 calendar year and beyond, based on the jurisdiction’s change in
its per capita disposal rate. The State Water Board is required to review a jurisdiction’s compliance
with those diversion requirements in accordance with a specified schedule, which is conditioned
upon the State Water Board finding that the jurisdiction complies with those requirements or has
implemented its SRRE and household hazardous waste element. The Bill requires the State Water
Board to issue an order of compliance if the State Water Board finds that the jurisdiction has failed
to make a good faith effort to implement its SRRE or its household hazardous waste element,
pursuant to a specified procedure. The per capita disposal rate is a jurisdiction-specific index, which
is used as one of several “factors” in determining a jurisdiction’s compliance with the intent of AB

939 and allows CalRecycle and jurisdictions to set their primary focus on successful implementation
of diversion programs.
SB 1383 requires counties to take the lead collaborating with the jurisdictions located within the
county in planning for the necessary organic waste recycling and food recovery capacity needed to
divert organic waste from landfills into recycling activities and food recovery organizations. California
has a 2025 goal to redirect to people in need 20 percent of edible food currently thrown away.93
CALGreen Section 4.408 requires preparation of a Construction Waste Management Plan that
provides an overview of ways in which the applicant would recycle and/or salvage for reuse a
minimum of 65 percent of the nonhazardous construction and demolition debris. During the
construction phase, the proposed project would be required to comply with CALGreen through the
recycling and reuse of at least 65 percent of the nonhazardous construction and demolition debris
from the project site.
Participation in the City’s recycling programs during project construction and operation, including
CalRecycle’s requirements, would ensure that the proposed project would not conflict with federal,
State, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste. Additionally, solid waste would be
disposed of at existing Orange County Waste and Recycling landfills. Disposal of solid waste would
comply with all federal, State, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste. During
operation, the proposed project would include receptacles for recyclables and garbage. Thus,
impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
Mitigation Measures
MM UTL-1 A proposed residential development, Midway Apartments, is anticipated to address
the recommended diversion improvements at the Harbor Boulevard and Katella

operational, prior to issuance of first the Building Permit for the proposed project,
the Owner/Developer shall construct the diversion and make it operational.

Environmental Evaluation
a) Does the project have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment,
substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to

or special-status species; riparian habitat or sensitive natural communities; or State or federally
protected wetlands. The proposed project’s impacts on nesting birds would be less than significant
with adherence to regulatory requirements. Furthermore, the proposed project’s impacts related to
the City’s Street Tree Ordinance would be less than significant with compliance to the City’s

Community Services Department in the event that maintenance or removal of existing Street Trees is
required.99
The proposed project would not substantially degrade the quality of the environment, reduce fish or
wildlife habitat, reduce fish or wildlife populations below self-sustaining levels, eliminate a plant or
animal community, or reduce the number or range of a rare or endangered plant or animal.
Based on the analysis provided in Section 2.5, Cultural Resources, the proposed project’s impacts
related to historical resources would be less than significant with implementation of MM CUL-1. A
pedestrian survey determined that that there are buildings located within the project boundaries,
and a subsequent Historic Built Environmental Assessment Report determined that the buildings
were ineligible under all State and local designation criteria due to lack of significant historical
associations and architectural merit. While unlikely, subsurface construction activities always have
the potential to destroy or damage previously undiscovered historical resources. Implementation of
MM CUL-1 would ensure that potential impacts on historic resources are reduced to a less than
significant level. Additionally, there are no known archaeological resources on the project site, but
there is always a possibility that subsurface excavation could result in the discovery of previously
undiscovered prehistoric archaeological resources. Implementation of MM CUL-1 would ensure that
potential impacts on prehistoric archaeological resources are reduced to a less than significant level.
Additionally, although there are no known human remains or cemeteries within or near the project
site, there is always a potential that subsurface construction activities, such as grading or trenching,
could potentially damage or destroy previously undiscovered human remains. Public Resources Code
Section 5097.98 specifies the procedures to follow in the event human remains are uncovered.
Compliance with required guidelines and statutes would reduce potential impacts on human
remains to a less than significant level. In addition to reducing impacts on historic and prehistoric
resources, implementation of MM TCR-1 for tribal monitoring would also reduce any impacts on
TCRs.
Based on the discussion provided above, compliance with required guidelines and statutes and
implementation of the mitigation measures, the proposed project would not substantially degrade
the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a
fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or
animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered
plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or
prehistory. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant with compliance with existing
regulations and incorporation of MM CUL-1 and MM TCR -1.

b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable?
(“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable
when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current
projects, and the effects of probable future projects)?
Less than significant impact. The analysis in this Draft IS/MND includes a review of the proposed
project’s potential impacts regarding air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, noise, and
transportation, among other environmental issue areas. As presented throughout this Draft IS/MND,
the proposed project’s cumulative impacts would either be less than significant with mitigation
incorporated, less than significant, or there would be no impacts.
Section 2.3, Air Quality, analyzed cumulative impacts related to regional criteria pollutant emissions
and determined that these cumulative impacts would be less than significant. The region is currently
nonattainment for ozone, PM 10 , and PM 2.5. As discussed in Section 2.3, the proposed project’s
regional construction emissions would not exceed SCAQMD regional significance thresholds for VOC,
NO X , CO, SO X , PM 10 , or PM 2.5 . Therefore, the cumulative impact of the proposed project’s
construction emissions on regional air quality would be less than significant. Furthermore, Section
2.3 determined that the proposed project’s regional operations emissions would not exceed
SCAQMD regional significance thresholds for VOC, NO X , CO, SO X , PM 10 , or PM 2.5 . Therefore, the
cumulative impact of the proposed project’s operations emissions on regional air quality would be
less than significant, and no mitigation measures are needed.
Section 2.13, Noise, determined that project-related traffic would have no potential to substantially
contribute to any cumulatively considerable increases in future roadside ambient noise levels, and
that no mitigation measures are needed.
As discussed throughout this Draft IS/MND, the proposed project’s cumulative impacts would be less
than significant. No additional mitigation measures would be required to reduce cumulative impacts.
Therefore, the proposed project would cause less than significant cumulative impacts.
c) Does the project have environmental effects, which will cause substantial adverse effects on
human beings, either directly or indirectly?
Less than significant impact with mitigation incorporated. Based on the discussion provided in the
Project Description and the analysis presented in Sections 2.1 through 2.19 of this Draft IS/MND, the
proposed project would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or
indirectly, because the proposed project’s potential impacts would be mitigated to a less than
significant level. Therefore, with implementation of MM AQ-1, MM CUL-1, MM TCR -1, MM GEO-1,
MM GEO-2, MM GHG-1, MM HAZ-1, MM HAZ-2, MM HAZ-3, MM NOI-1, and MM UTL-1 the
proposed project would not result in substantial adverse effects on human beings. Impacts would be
less than significant with mitigation incorporated.
Mitigation Measures
Implementation of MM AQ-1, MM CUL-1, MM TCR-1, MM GEO-1, MM GEO-2, MM GHG-1, MM HAZ-
1, MM HAZ-2, MM HAZ-3, MM NOI-1, and MM UTL-1.

SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
Although not required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City of Anaheim has
prepared the following responses to significant environmental comments received on the Anaheim
Ball Mixed Use Project Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (Draft IS/MND). The
Responses to Comments and Errata, which are included in this document, together with the Draft
IS/MND, Draft IS/MND appendices, and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP),
comprise the Final IS/MND for use by the City of Anaheim in its review and consideration of the
Anaheim Ball Mixed Use Project. All public comments regarding the Draft IS/MND are included for
consideration by the City.
This document is organized into three sections:
• Section 1—Introduction.
• Section 2—Responses to Written Comments: Provides a list of the agencies, organizations,
and individuals who commented on the Draft IS/MND. Copies of all of the letters received
regarding the Draft IS/MND and responses thereto are included in this section.
• Section 3—Errata : During the public review period, the proposed site plan was reduced in
both size and density. The proposed project involves the demolition of 85,400 square-feet of
existing buildings on six parcels for the development of 223 for-sale residential townhomes
ranging in height from 3 to 4 stories and 4,586 square feet of retail use. The proposed project
includes amenities for these uses including an open space passive park areas and various
landscaping. The residential component of the proposed project would provide 15 percent of
the proposed residential units at an affordable rate in partnership with the City of Anaheim
Community and Economic Development Department. The reduced site plan would result in
either unchanged or less impactful findings and conclusions compared to the analyses
presented in the Draft IS/MND. Section 3, Errata, includes an addendum listing refinements
and clarifications on the Draft IS/MND for consistency with the reduced site plan, which have
been incorporated.
The Final IS/MND includes the following contents:
• Draft IS/MND (provided under separate cover)
• Draft IS/MND appendices (provided under separate cover)
• Responses to Written Comments and Errata (Sections 2 and 3 of this document)

Dear Mr. UK,
Thank you for including the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in
the review of the Initial Study? Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Anaheim
Ball Mixed Use project. The proposed project is to demolish the existing
commercial and industrial buildings approximately 85,400 square feet and
develop a 4,500-square-foot retail building and up to 249 for-sale residential flats
and townhomes. The project site is located at 1200–1354 South Anaheim
Boulevard, 200 East Ball Road, and 1207 South Claudina Street, and 0.44 mile
east of Interstate 5 (I-5), the Santa Ana Freeway.
The mission of Caltrans is to provide a safe and reliable transportation network
that serves all people and respects the environment. Caltrans is a responsible
agency on this project and has the following comments:
Traffic Operations
1. Any existing entry pockets to I-5 on-ramps from local city streets within the State
right of way that spill beyond designated storage lane must be addressed in the
environmental document for safety concerns.
System Planning
2. Caltrans supports the design of Complete Streets that include high-quality
pedestrian, bicycle, and transit facilities that are safe and comfortable for
users of all ages and abilities. Improvements may include providing secure
bicycle parking, pedestrian-oriented LED lighting, wayfinding signage,
and comfortable connections to nearby active transportation and/or
transit facilities. Complete Streets improvements also promote regional

connectivity, improve air quality, reduce congestion, promote improved
first-/last-mile connections, and increase safety for all modes of
transportation. Continue to incorporate Complete Streets in project
development.
3. In addition to alignment with Anaheim Municipal Codes, bicycle parking
should accommodate a variety of bicycle shapes and sizes (e.g., electric
bikes, cargo bikes, adult tricycles, bikes with trailers, etc.), and racks
should be installed at least 24” away from walls and other objects (e.g.,
trash cans, plants, etc.). For additional guidance on providing functional
bike parking, see the “Essentials of Bike Parking” guidance created by the
Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals (link to online PDF:
https://www.apbp.org/Publications).
Encroachment Permit
4. In the event of any work within Caltrans right of way discretionary review
and approval by Caltrans and an encroachment permit will be required
prior to construction. Additional information regarding encroachment
permits may be obtained by contacting the Caltrans Permits Office at
(657) 328-6553. For specific details on Caltrans Encroachment Permits
procedure and any future updates regarding the application process and
permit rates, please visit the Caltrans Encroachment Permits homepage at
https://dot.ca.gov/programs/traffic-operations/ep.
Please continue to coordinate with Caltrans for any future developments that
could potentially impact State transportation facilities. If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact Maryam Molavi, at

Response to CALTRANS -3
The commenter expresses support for the design of Complete Streets and encourages the City to
incorporate Complete Streets in project development. The comment does not identify any specific
environmental concerns related to the project.
The comment is noted.
Response to CALTRANS -4
The commenter provides links to guidance on providing functional bike parking, in addition to the
Anaheim Municipal Code. The comment does not identify any specific environmental concerns
related to the project.
The comment is noted.
Response to CALTRANS -5
The commenter notes that any work within Caltrans right of way would require discretionary review
and approval by Caltrans and an encroachment permit.
It is not anticipated that the proposed project will involve any work within Caltrans right of way or in
close enough proximity that an Encroachment Permit would be required. As such, Caltrans is not
considered a Responsible Agency at this time. However, the applicant will comply with the
Encroachment Permit requirements, if applicable.
Response to CALTRANS -6
The commenter provides general concluding remarks and requests continued coordination.
This general comment does not identify specific potentially adverse environmental impacts, nor does
it address significant environmental issues within the purview of CEQA. The City will consider all
comments received on the proposed project as part of their review and consideration of the project
as a whole. No further analysis is warranted.

Local Agencies
Anaheim Elementary School District (AESD)
Response to AESD-1
The commenter provides updated information related to enrollment and capacity at Revere
Elementary School and encourages the creation of safe pedestrian passage across Anaheim
Boulevard for students and families. According to the comment letter provided on August 30, 2022,
Paul Revere Elementary School has a capacity of 807 students and is anticipated to exceed the
capacity by 110 students by 2024 and by 263 students by 2025. The analysis provided in Section
2.15, Public Services, in the Draft IS/MND states that the proposed project would generate 58
students. This estimate is based on the student generation rates provided in the correspondence
from Anaheim Elementary School District dated May 4, 2022. In order to provide a conservative
estimate, the higher number of 0.2589 students per residential unit was used. The correspondence
from Anaheim Elementary School District, dated May 4, 2022, can be found in Appendix J of the
Draft IS/MND.
The discussion of schools included in the IS/MND is consistent with Government Code Section 65996
which establishes the “exclusive methods of considering and mitigating impacts on school facilities
that occur or might occur.” Accordingly, the proposed project would be required to pay the current
development impact fees for residential and commercial space. Payment of the fees would fully
mitigate impacts to school services consistent with the Government Code.
The proposed project would provide safe pedestrian pathways through new code-compliant
sidewalks along its frontage. Additionally, the proposed project would reconstruct the existing
driveway on Anaheim Boulevard to align with the existing alleyway across Anaheim Boulevard that
provides access to the retail uses. The reconstruction of this intersection would also involve the
installation of a new traffic signal to improve the pedestrian path of travel at this location. The
proposed project’s new traffic signal on Anaheim Boulevard south of Ball Road would provide
pedestrian crosswalks at this new intersection. Furthermore, the existing crosswalk at the
intersection of Anaheim Boulevard and Palais Road is also available. Therefore, no further action is
required.

Response to BRYAN -1
The commenter requests a full Environmental Impact Report (EIR) be prepared for the project.
The City acknowledges the comment as an introductory statement to the comments that follow and
notes that the comment expresses general opposition to the project due to its scope and identified
discretionary approvals. The comment does not identify any specific information regarding
potentially significant environmental impacts. To show t hat an EIR is required by CEQA, commenters
must demonstrate that the record contains substantial evidence supporting a fair argument that the
project may have a significant adverse environmental impact. For purposes of CEQA, “substantial
evidence includes fact, a reasonable assumption predicated upon fact, or expert opinion supported
by fact” (Public Resources Code [PRC] § 21080(e)(1)). “Substantial evidence is not argument,
speculation, unsubstantiated opinion or narrative, evidence that is clearly inaccurate or erroneous,
or evidence of social or economic impacts that do not contribute to, or are not caused by, physical
impacts on the environment” (PRC § 21080(e)(2)).
Response to BRYAN -2
The commenter identifies the proximity of adjacent industrial uses and the incompatibility of the
proposed use in terms of heavy truck traffic and the safety of school children. The commenter also
requests that future residents be provided full disclosure of the existing industrial use.
The land uses to the north, south, and east of the project site are designated by the General Plan for
General Commercial, Residential, and Industrial uses. As such, the project includes a proposed
General Plan Amendment (GPA ) that would be consistent with the existing surrounding land uses. A
Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was prepared for the proposed project by Fehr & Peers and is included
as Appendix I. Section 2.17, Transportation, of the Draft IS/MND evaluates the potential traffic
impacts from implementation of the proposed project. Pursuant to the requirements of CEQA,
impacts related to transportation were found to be less than significant. The proposed project would
improve the roadways along the project frontage, as well as the installation of a new traffic signal on
Anaheim Boulevard that would provide access to the proposed project and construct sidewalks for
pedestrian circulation. Please refer to Response to AESD-1 regarding sidewalk safety and pedestrian
protections for school children.
Regarding the need for a formal disclosure to future residents, this comment will be forwarded to
the decision makers for their consideration as part of the proposed project as a whole.
Response to BRYAN -3
Comment noted. This comment requests full indemnity from the developer to property owners and
businesses in the area.
Indemnity is not an environmental issue; this comment does not raise any questions about the
environmental analysis.

SECTION 3: ERRATA
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.5, a lead agency would be required to recirculate a
negative declaration prior to adoption when the document must be substantially revised after public
notice of its availability has previously been given pursuant to Section 15072, but prior to its
adoption. Notice of recirculation shall comply with Sections 15072 and 15073. A “substantial
revision” of the negative declaration is defined as a new, avoidable significant effect is identified and
mitigation measures or project revisions must be added in order to reduce the effect to
insignificance, or the lead agency determines that the proposed mitigation measures or project
revisions will not reduce potential effects to less than significance and new measures or revisions
must be required.
CEQA Guidelines 15073.5(c) states that recirculation is not required under the following
circumstances:
(1)Mitigation measures are replaced with equal or more effective measures pursuant to
Section 15074.1.
(2)New project revisions are added in response to written or verbal comments on the project’s
effects identified in the proposed negative declaration which are not new avoidable
significant effects.
(3)Measures or conditions of project approval are added after circulation of the negative
declaration which are not required by CEQA, which do not create new significant
environmental effects and are not necessary to mitigate an avoidable significant effect.
(4)New information is added to the negative declaration which merely clarifies, amplifies, or
makes insignificant modifications to the negative declaration.
During the public review period, the property addressed as 1354 South Anaheim Boulevard was
removed from the project, reducing the size and number of units. The proposed project involves the
demolition of 85,400 square feet of existing buildings on six parcels for the development of 223 for-
sale residential townhomes ranging in height from 3 to 4 stories and 4,586 square feet of retail use.
The project includes amenities for these uses including an open space passive park areas and various
landscaping. The residential component of the proposed project would provide at least 10 percent of
the proposed residential units at an affordable rate in partnership with the City of Anaheim
Community and Economic Development Department. The reduced site plan would result in either
unchanged or less impactful findings and conclusions compared to the analyses presented in the
Draft IS/MND.
The following are revisions to the Draft IS/MND for the Anaheim Ball Mixed Use Project. These
revisions are minor modifications and clarifications to the document. The revisions do not change
the significance of any of the environmental issue conclusions within the Draft IS/MND and would
not require recirculation of the Draft IS/MND. The revisions are listed by page number. All additions
to the text are underlined (underlined) and all deletions from the text are stricken (stricken).

For consistency with the reduced site plan, the following text updates have been made.
The project site is located at 1200–1354 1320 South Anaheim Boulevard, 200 East Ball Road,
and 1207 South Claudina Street, generally, the southeast corner of the intersection of South
Anaheim Boulevard and East Ball Road in the City of Anaheim, in Orange County, California
(Exhibit 1). The 10.1-acre 8.3-acre project site consists of up to seven six contiguous parcels,
Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 082-461-23, -24, -25, -31, -34, and -35, and -39. The
project site is located 0.44 mile east of Interstate 5 (I-5), the Santa Ana Freeway. As shown in
Exhibit 2, the project site is in the western/central portion of the City. Regional access to the
project site would be from I-5 via South Harbor Boulevard and Katella Avenue exits.
Section 1.3: Environmental Setting
Page 1
Land Uses and Zoning
The project site currently developed with approximately 85,400 square feet of existing
commercial and industrial buildings as well as associated parking lots and landscaping. The
existing commercial and industrial buildings include a transportation service, auto parts
store, tire shop, automobile service centers, furniture wholesaler, and vacant lots. The
General Plan currently designates the project site for General Commercial land use (Exhibit
3).0F0F
1 The proposed project is requesting a General Plan Amendment (GPA) to change the land
use designation from General Commercial to Mixed-Use Mid Medium (36 27 dwelling units
per acre [du/ac]). The Mixed-Use Mid Medium land use designation is intended to allow
flexibility for parcels that could transition from strip commercial uses to residential or a mix
of residential, commercial, and office development. This designation . . .

Platinum Triangle or Downtown areas (like the proposed project site), the Mixed-Use Overlay
Zone.1F1F
2 The proposed project would be subject to the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone, as discussed
below.
The majority of the project site is currently within the General Commercial (C-G) Zone, with
the exception of APN 082-461-39, which is within the Industrial Zone (Exhibit 4). The
proposed project would require a Reclassification (RCL) to change the zoning on APN 082-
461-39 from the Industrial Zone to the C-G Zone and to add the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone to
all parcels within the project site so that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone
and the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone.
The C-G Zone implements the General Commercial land use designation in the General
Plan.2F2F
3 The intent of the C-G Zone is to allow a variety of land uses. Areas designated as C-G
do not necessarily serve the adjacent neighborhood or surrounding clusters of
neighborhoods. In addition to some of the uses described in the commercial center zones,
they typically include highway-serving uses such as fast food restaurants, auto-oriented uses
such as tire stores and auto parts stores, and stand-alone retail uses.
The purpose of the Mixed-Use Overlay Zone is to implement the Mixed-Use Mid Density,
Mixed-Use Medium Mid Density, and Mixed-Use High Density General Plan Land Use
Designations; and to define allowable land uses and property development standards,
including intensity of development for mixed-use areas in order to produce healthy, safe,
and attractive neighborhoods within the City of Anaheim, consistent with the policy
direction in the Anaheim General Plan.3F

residential units and a maximum of 16 residential units. Residential units would consist
of nine 2-bedroom flats, 17 3-bedroom flats, and 10 4-bedroom flats and would include
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant residential units. Each flat would
include a minimum of 100 square feet of balcony space.
2.Townhomes–The Townhomes would consist of 213 187 residential units in 30 24
three-story buildings. Each building would contain a minimum of four residential units
and a maximum of 12 residential units. Residential units would consist of 62 55 1-
bedroom residential units, 83 73 2-bedroom residential units, and 68 59 3-bedroom
residential units, and would include ADA-compliant residential units. Each townhome
unit would include a minimum of 70 116 square feet of balcony space.
The proposed project would provide private roadways and parking, pedestrian walkways,
common space and amenity areas throughout the project site, landscaping, and a
recreational amenity area in the center of the project site. Density on the project site would
be 24.57 26.9 du/ac, which would not exceed the maximum density of the Mixed-Use
Medium Mid land use designation of 36 27 du/ac. The proposed project would provide a
trash enclosure on the north side of the project site near the entrance at East Ball Road.
An Affordable Housing component is proposed with this development. A total of A minimum
of 10 percent of the for-sale townhomes would be sold to moderate-income buyers. The
applicant will enter into a density bonus housing agreement with the City to ensure
compliance with the Density Bonus Ordinance.
Parking and Circulation
Page 3–4
For consistency with the reduced site plan and to provide additional clarification, the following text
updates have been made.
Vehicles would access the project site via four three driveways, including one entry from East
Ball Road at the north side of the project site, two entries one entry from South Anaheim
Boulevard on the west side of the project site, and one entry from South Claudina Street on
the northeast side of the project site. An additional location for emergency access only is
provided on South Anaheim Boulevard. The driveways on East Ball Road and South Anaheim
Boulevard would be restricted to right-in-right-out access only. An internal private roadway
system would provide two-way access to the surface parking lots and to the parking garages.
The proposed project would have 524 437 on-site parking spaces, consisting of 430 385
garage spaces, 74 32 surface parking spaces, and 19 20 retail spaces. The proposed parking
spaces would meet the code requirement as shown in Table 1 and Table 2, respectively.
Parking would include six ADA-accessible surface parking spaces. Pedestrians would circulate
within the proposed project via internal pedestrian walkways and sidewalks located
throughout the site. Table 1 compares the required and provided parking for the residential
units, and Table 2 shows the types of parking spaces that would be provided as part of the
proposed project.

required to provide 396 residential parking spaces and 19 retail parking spaces. With the 385
garage stalls, 32 residential open parking stalls, and 20 retail open spaces, the proposed
project exceeds the requirements by 22 parking spaces.
The proposed project would provide new code-compliant sidewalks along its frontage.
Additionally, the proposed project would reconstruct the existing driveway on Anaheim
Boulevard to align with the existing alleyway across Anaheim Boulevard that provides access
to retail uses. The reconstruction of this intersection would include the installation of a new
traffic signal to improve the pedestrian path of travel at this location. The proposed project’s

Section 2.1: Aesthetics
Page 19
c) In non-urbanized areas, substantially degrade the existing visual character or
quality of public views of the site and its surroundings? (Public views are those
that are experienced from publicly accessible vantage point). If the project is in an
urbanized area, would the project conflict with applicable zoning and other
regulations governing scenic quality?
No impact. The project site is located in an urbanized area. As such, this analysis will discuss
whether the proposed project would conflict with applicable zoning and other regulations
governing scenic quality. The City of Anaheim General Plan and Zoning Ordinance defines
the permitted land uses and the corresponding development standards within the City. The
project site is currently designated General Commercial and zoned C-G and Industrial.
Currently, residential mixed-use development is not permitted within the C-G and Industrial
Zones or the Commercial General land use designation. Thus, the project applicant is seeking
a GPA to amend the land use designation from General Commercial to Mixed-Use Medium
Mid. The proposed project would also require an RCL to rezone APN 082-461-39 from
Industrial to C-G, and to add the Mixed Use (MU) Overlay Zone to all parcels within the
project site, so that the entire project site would be within the C-G Zone and the MU Overlay
Zone.
Section 2.2: Agriculture and Forestry Resources
Page 22
c) Conflict with existing zoning for, or cause rezoning of, forest land (as defined in
Public Resources Code Section 12220(g)), timberland (as defined by Public
Resources Code Section 4526), or timberland zoned Timberland Production (as
defined by Government Code Section 51104(g))?
No impact. The City of Anaheim does not contain any land that is zoned for forest land or
timberland. The project site is within the C-G and Industrial Zones and is currently occupied
with commercial and industrial uses; therefore, there would be no impact to land zoned for
forest or timberland.
Section 2.3: Air Quality
Page 30
As part of the proposed project, the proposed project site’s General Plan land use
designation would be changed from “Commercial” to “Mixed-Use Medium Mid.” The zoning

Measures that the Owner/Developer could implement that are contained in MM GHG-1
include installing solar beyond what is required by Title 24 standards, installing solar water
heaters, or a commitment to purchasing 100 percent renewable electricity, among others.
Based on the current estimate of the proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory,
shown in Table 11, this would be equivalent to no less than 1,080 812 MT CO2e per year for
the first 30 years of proposed project operations, or 32,400 24,360 MT CO2e total.
Implementation of MM GHG-1 would offset the impact of the proposed project’s GHG
emissions to below the 3,000 MT CO2e threshold of significance and therefore result in a
less than significant impact.

equivalent (CO2e) per year for 30 years, or 32,400 24,360 MT CO2e total, based on
current estimates of the proposed project’s annual GHG emissions inventory
contained in this analysis. GHG emission reductions may be achieved through any
combination of the following measures or other measures approved by the City:
• Commit to purchasing 100 percent renewable electricity.
• Install on-site solar panels that provide electricity beyond the minimum
requirements according to the current version of Title 24.
• Install solar water heaters or other renewable energy technologies.
• Install on-site charging infrastructure consistent with the Tier 2 standards
contained in California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen) Section
A4.106.6.8.
• Design and construct all residences to be all-electric, precluding the installation of
natural gas plumbing for space and water heating and appliance operation.
Purchase voluntary carbon credits from a verified GHG emissions credit broker in an
amount sufficient to offset operational GHG emissions of no less than 1,080 812 MT
CO2e per year for 30 years, or 32,400 24,360 MT CO22e total.
Should the Owner/Developer elect to purchase carbon credits, all purchased carbon
credits shall be pursuant to the following performance standards and requirements:
(i) the carbon credits shall achieve real, permanent, quantifiable, verifiable,
enforceable, and additional reductions as set forth in California Health and Safety
Code Sections 38562(d)(1) and (d)(2). Such credits shall be based on protocols
consistent with the criteria set forth by Section 95972, subdivision (a), of Title 17 of
the California Code of Regulations, as determined by an expert qualified to make
such a determination, and shall not include credits originating outside of California,
except to the extent that the quality of the credits, and their sufficiency under the
standards set forth herein, can be verified by an expert qualified to make such a
determination. In no event shall credits from outside the United States be used.
Carbon credits must be purchased through one of the following: (i) a California Air
Resources Board (ARB) approved registry, such as the Climate Action Reserve, the
American Carbon Registry, or Verra (formerly known as the Verified Carbon
Standard); and (ii) any registry approved by the ARB to act as a registry under the
California Cap-and-Trade Program; or (iii) the California Air Pollution Control Officers
Association’s (CAPCOA) Greenhouse Gas Reduction Exchange (GHG Rx) or any
program adopted or approved by the South Coast Air Quality Management District
(SCAQMD).
As an alternative to purchasing carbon credits, the Owner/Developer may elect to
contribute to carbon offsets through a local or regional program or institution in an
amount sufficient to offset the proposed project’s GHG emissions by the previously
identified amounts. Contributions to a local or regional program or institution may
include, but are not limited to, funding for renewable energy infrastructure or

Similarly, the western portion of the project site would convey flows in a westerly direction
to eight curb inlet MWSs located at the end of drive aisles adjacent to South Anaheim
Boulevard. All eight of these MWSs would be connected via storm drainpipe to a single
stormwater lift station located at the southerly driveway entrance into South Anaheim
Boulevard. Like the northeastern portion of the project site, flows would then be pumped
out of the site via a proposed parkway culvert into South Anaheim Boulevard. Once flows
enter East Ball Road Anaheim Boulevard, they would follow the historic drainage pattern.
Section 2.11: Land Use and Planning
Page 95
Setting
For consistency with the reduced site plan, the following text updates have been made.
The General Plan currently designates the project site as General Commercial. The proposed
project would require a GPA to change the land use designation from General Commercial to
Mixed-Use Medium Mid. The Mixed-Use Medium Mid land use designation is intended to
allow flexibility for parcels that could transition from strip commercial uses to residential or
a mix of residential, commercial, and office development. This designation allows residential
uses in either a stand-alone or mixed-use configuration at a density of up to 36 27 du/ac.
The nonresidential component of mixed-use development is permitted at a maximum FAR of
0.35 0.10.
The majority of the project site is currently within the C-G Zone, with the exception of APN
082-461-39, which is within the Industrial Zone. The proposed project would require an RCL
to change the zoning on APN 082-461-39 from the Industrial Zone to the C-G Zone and to
add the MU Overlay Zone to all parcels within the project site so that the entire project site
would be within the C-G Zone and the MU Overlay Zone.
The proposed project would also include a CUP to permit a mixed-use project that would
include development of up to 249 223-unit residential flats and townhomes and a 4,500
4,586-square-foot retail building on the ground floor of the mixed-use building(s) along the
Ball Road entrance to the project site.

RCL to change the zoning on APN 082-461-39 from the Industrial Zone to the C-G Zone and
to add the MU Overlay Zone to all parcels within the project site so that the entire project
site would be within the C-G Zone and the MU Overlay Zone. As described above, the land
uses to the north, south, and east of the project site are designated by the General Plan for
General Commercial, Residential, and Industrial uses. As such, the proposed GPA would be
consistent with the existing surrounding land uses, and with approval of these changes, the
proposed project would not conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation.
Impacts are therefore considered less than significant, and no mitigation is required.
Section 2.12: Mineral Resources
Page 100
. . . mineral resource recovery site on or near the project site.54F
5 The project site is designated
General Commercial and would be changed to Mixed-Use Medium Mid. The entire project
site would be zoned C-G. These designations do not permit mineral extraction. Furthermore,
the project site is in an urbanized area and does not support mineral extraction operations.
Therefore, there would be no loss of a known mineral resource with project implementation.
No impact would occur.
Section 2.13: Noise
Page 110
For consistency with the reduced site plan, the following text updates have been made.
The proposed project would contain 4,500 4,586 square feet of retail uses. Any potential
outdoor dining patios for these uses would be located hundreds of feet from the nearest
sensitive receptors. Vocal noise from speech/conversation averages between 55 and 67 dBA
at a reference distance of one meter, in proportion to background noise levels.57F
6 Given the
rapid attenuation of speech/conversation noise, surrounding noise levels, and distances to
receptors, it is unlikely that vocal noises from outdoor users would be audible at sensitive
receptors, let alone capable of causing or contributing to substantial noise increases.
Reasonable use of the proposed project’s dining areas would not result in discernible noise
increases at sensitive receptors.
Section 2.17: Transportation
The Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) prepared by Fehr & Peers was updated for consistency with the
reduced site plan. Although LOS is no longer recognized in CEQA as a measure of significant
environmental impacts, LOS is discussed in the City’s Congestion Management Program (CMP) and is
provided in the Draft IS/MND as an impact analysis for consistency with the City’s CMP

requirements. The findings and conclusions of the TIA are consistent with what was previously
identified in the Draft IS/MND.
It should be noted that Fehr & Peers completed a VMT Screening Assessment in June 2022 that was
incorporated in the Draft IS/MND. This assessment was for the proposed project with development
size which is greater than the size of the project that is currently proposed. The reduced size of the
project still has a floor area ratio (FAR) of greater than 0.75 and less parking supply than required by
the City. The smaller size of the proposed project still satisfies the Sustainable Communities Strategy
(SCS) consistency and is not replacing any affordable housing units. The reduced site plan would not
change any conclusions from the Transit Priority Area (TPA) screening assessment. Therefore, the
proposed project still meets all of the requirements of TPA screening and can be presumed to have a
less than significant transportation impact related to VMT.
The following text has been revised to reflect the updated TIA.

Setting
The analysis contained in this section is partially based on the TIA prepared for the proposed
project by Fehr & Peers in July August 2022, and the VMT Analysis prepared by Fehr & Peers
in June 2022 included in Appendix I. The City’s applicable project-specific thresholds are
described below.

The following text has been updated in Response to Comment AESD-1 in the Final IS/MND, Section
2: Responses to Written Comments:
Pedestrian facilities include sidewalks, crosswalks, pedestrian signals and multiuse trails. The
roadways in the study area generally provide sidewalks on both sides of the street. Curbside
sidewalks are provided on Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road along the project site frontage.
The proposed project would provide a pedestrian path internally between the residential
units, recreational amenity area and retail stores., as well as new code-compliant sidewalks
along the project frontage. Additionally, the proposed project would reconstruct the existing
driveway on Anaheim Boulevard to align with the existing alleyway across Anaheim
Boulevard that provides access to retail uses. The reconstruction of this intersection would
include the installation of a new traffic signal to improve the pedestrian path of travel at this
location. The proposed project’s new traffic signal on Anaheim Boulevard south of Ball Road
would provide pedestrian crosswalks at this new intersection. Additionally, there is an
existing crosswalk at the intersection of Anaheim Boulevard and Palais Road.

Less than significant impact. Vehicles would access the project site via four three driveways,
including one entry from East Ball Road at the north side of the project site, two entries one
entry from South Anaheim Boulevard on the west side of the project site, and one entry
from South Claudina Street on the northeast side of the project site. An additional location
for emergency access only is provided on South Anaheim Boulevard. An internal private
roadway system would provide two-way access to the surface parking lots and to the parking
garages. The proposed project driveway and internal roadways would be developed to
comply with the City Building Division and Fire & Rescue Department standards.
Additionally, the proposed project would ensure safe pedestrian passage through the
proposed improvements to sidewalks along the project frontage, reconstruction of the
driveway, and the installation of a new traffic signal. The proposed project would develop a
4,500-square-foot 4,586-square-foot retail building and up to 249 223 residential flats and
townhomes and would not include the use of any incompatible vehicles or equipment, such
as farm equipment. The proposed project is surrounded by commercial, residential, and
industrial uses. Therefore, the proposed project’s mixed use development would be
compatible with the surrounding uses. Thus, the proposed project would not substantially
increase hazards due to design or incompatible uses, impacts are less than significant, and
no mitigation is required.

The Sewer Study Technical Memorandum prepared by Psomas, the Preliminary Hydrology and
Drainage Study prepared by C&V Consulting Inc., and the Preliminary Water Quality Management
Plan (WQMP) prepared by C&V Consulting, Inc., were updated for consistency with the reduced site
plan. The findings show generally reduced usage and the conclusions of the Sewer Study Technical
Memorandum are consistent with what was previously identified in the Draft IS/MND. The following
text has been revised to reflect the updated Sewer Study Technical Memorandum.

The City’s Sewer and Storm Drain Maintenance Division is responsible for maintenance of
the City’s sewer and storm drain lines. The project site is currently developed, and the
proposed project is within the CAMPSS. The proposed project would connect to the existing
sewer lines on Ball Road and Anaheim Boulevard. The average flow factor for townhome
units is 240 GPD per dwelling unit (GPD/du) based on the CAMPSS and 195 GPD/thousand
square feet (ksf) for commercial. According to the Sewer Study prepared for the proposed
project (Appendix F), sewage from the proposed 139 122 dwelling units would add an
average flow of 23.17 20.3 gallons per minute (gpm), or 33,360 29,280 GPD, to a proposed
manhole on Anaheim Blvd and Winston Road. The use of an on-site private lift station is not
needed since the residential flow is proposed to be split between the two discharge
manholes for the proposed project. The remaining proposed 110 101 dwelling units, and
4,500 4,586 square feet of retail space would add an average flow of 18.94 17.5 gpm, or
27,278 25,134 GPD, to a manhole on Ball Road. The average daily flow increase (net
additional flow) to the Ball Road sewer collection system would be 21,541 19,398 GPD, and

the average daily flow increase to the Anaheim Blvd. Boulevard sewer collection system
would be 21,280 17,200 GPD. The total flow from the proposed project would be 60,638

Page 133
The project site is currently fully built out and is currently served by the City’s Sewer and
Storm Drain Maintenance Division. The Sewer Study prepared for the proposed project
calculated flow the increase as compared to the existing uses on the project site. According
to the Sewer Study prepared for the proposed project, the sewer collection system is
currently deficient in the Katella Avenue sewer under the existing conditions, and the
additional flow generated by the proposed project to the sewer collection system would
exacerbate this deficiency. According to the Sewer Study, the average daily flow increase
(net additional flow) to the Ball Road sewer collection system would be 21,541 19,398 GPD,
and the average daily flow increase to the Anaheim Blvd. Boulevard sewer collection system
would be 21,280 17,200 GPD. The total flow from the proposed project would be 60,638
54,414 GPD, for a total average daily flow increase to the sewer collection system of 42,821
36,598 GPD. It is anticipated that the deficiency in the North Katella sewer would be relieved
through currently planned developments.

Project Description
The proposed development is a collection of six parcels totaling 8.3 acres located at the southeast
corner of Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road in the City of Anaheim. The project consists of the
demolition of approximately 85,400 SF of existing commercial single-story buildings to be replaced with
a mixed-use project consisting of 223 residential units, including 10 percent of the units as affordable,
and 4,586 square feet of commercial space. The residential buildings would include three-story
townhomes with rooftop terraces and four-story flats. The 187 townhome units would be divided into
24 buildings, while the 36 flat units would be located in three corner buildings facing the intersection of
Anaheim Boulevard and Ball Road. Two commercial spaces would be located on the ground floor of the
flats buildings, adjacent to the proposed driveway on Ball Road. The townhome residential units range
from 835 square feet to 1,796 square feet and would include one, two, and three-bedroom options. The
residential flats would range from 1,419 square feet to 2,597 square feet and would include two, three,
and four-bedroom options.
The project would be accessed by three driveways and one emergency vehicle access lane located to the
south of the property. The main entry point on Ball Road will dissect the two buildings where the
commercial spaces are located. An additional driveway is located on Claudina, while the third driveway
at Anaheim Boulevard will be a signalized access point. The project will include a total of 385 garage
parking spaces for the residential units, some spaces will be tandem in design, and 32 surface parking
spaces for guests. Additionally, 20 surface parking spaces are provided for the retail uses. The
development would offer multiple open space opportunities throughout the site with a dog park,
children’s park, and a recreation amenity space. The recreation amenity space would be centrally
located and provide a pool, barbeque grills, and picnic tables.
