ITEM NO. 2
PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: FEBRUARY 27, 2023
SUBJECT: DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION NO. 2022-00080 (CODE
STREAMLINING AND IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM),
AMENDING TITLE 15 (BUILDINGS AND HOUSING) AND
TITLE 18 (ZONING) OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE
AND ADJUSTMENT NO. 13 TO THE ANAHEIM RESORT
SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 92-2, ADJUSTMENT NO. 13 TO THE
ANAHEIM CANYON SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 2015-1, AND
ADJUSTMENT NO. 6 TO THE BEACH BOULEVARD
SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 2017-1
LOCATION: Citywide
APPLICANT: City of Anaheim
REQUEST: This is a City-initiated request to amend various sections of Title 15
(Buildings and Housing) and Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim Municipal Code
(Code) to provide clarity, create consistency of terms and definitions, streamline
approval processes, comply with changes in State law to existing regulations, and
amend Code requirements to reflect current market trends. The proposed Zoning Code
Amendment (ZCA) includes adjustments to the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan,
Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan, and Beach Boulevard Specific Plan.
The public notice for this item advertised an amendment to the Disneyland Resort
Specific Plan. Upon further review, staff has removed this proposed amendment and
it is not included in the draft ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by
motion, determine that the proposed actions are not subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA
Guidelines; and, recommend City Council approval of amendments to Title 15
(Buildings and Housing), Title 18 (Zoning), Adjustment No. 13 to the Anaheim
Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2, Adjustment No. 13 to the Anaheim Canyon Specific
Plan No. 2015-1, and Adjustment No. 6 to the Beach Boulevard Specific Plan No.
2017-1.
BACKGROUND: In 2004, the City comprehensively updated its Zoning Code.
Since that time, the City has amended the Code on an as-needed basis as the result of
the staff’s periodic review of the Code. These periodic amendments have evolved into
the Planning and Building Department’s award winning “Code Streamlining and
Improvement Program.” This program strategically evaluates and amends the Zoning
Code on a continuous basis in response to new State laws, and market and business
Development Application No. 2022-00080

trends. Past amendments included the consolidation and streamlining of the regulatory permit
process, reduction in the level of review required for several land uses, creation of an
administrative permit process for reviewing requests for shared parking, and the creation of a
Minor Conditional Use Permit.
PROPOSAL AND ANALYSIS: Staff continually reviews existing requirements and permitting
practices to identify potential changes to further streamline the entitlement and development review
process, including to maintain regulations consistent with State law. The Zoning Code includes the
Zoning and Development Standards for the City’s specific plans, and the modifications to these
specific plan chapters are Specific Plan Adjustments. The proposed adjustments include the
Anaheim Resort, Anaheim Canyon, and Beach Boulevard Specific Plans.
Similar to previous amendments, this request includes modifications to permitted land uses,
development standards, procedures, and definitions contained in the Zoning Code. In addition, this
year’s amendments include a modification to Title 15 (Buildings and Housing) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code to streamline processes for addressing. Attachment 1 to this staff report shows the
redlined changes to Title 15 and Title 18; Attachment 2 provides a description of each amendment
and an analysis of why the Planning Commission should recommend that the City Council approve
the amendment.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission find that
the proposed ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This
determination is pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. Pursuant to this section,
the proposed amendments and adjustments fit within the general rule that CEQA only applies to
projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. In that, the
proposed amendments and adjustments would provide clarity, create consistency of terms and
definitions, streamline approval processes, comply with changes in State law to existing
regulations, and amend Code requirements to reflect current market trends. Thus, the proposed
amendments and adjustments will not have a significant effect on the environment; therefore, the
activity is not subject to CEQA.
CONCLUSION: Staff recommends the Planning Commission recommend approval to City
Council, for the reasons set forth in Attachment No. 2, which in summary are to provide staff,
decision makers, and members of the public with clear requirements, procedures, and definitions.

mounted Solar Energy Panels that are screened from public view within non-
residential zones and mixed-use structures.

18.06 (Multiple-Family Residential
Zones)
18.66 (Conditional Use Permits)
Multiple-Family Residential Zones: This amendment provides clarity,
consistency, and regulatory relief:
• Dwellings-Single-Family Attached – Provides land use consistency between
‘Dwellings-Multiple Family’ and ‘Dwellings-Single-Family Attached’ in the
RM-3, RM-3.5, and RM-4 zones.
• Setback between Buildings – Provides regulatory relief by streamlining the
required setbacks between buildings on the same property to 15-feet. The
amendment will provide consistency for this development standard with the
Beach Boulevard Specific Plan which also requires a 15-foot setback between
buildings, reflecting the market trends in attached single-family development.
This development standard only applies to buildings interior to a site and not
for buildings fronting a public right-of-way or interior property lines.
• Modifications of Development Standards – Provides regulatory relief for
multiple-family residential projects developed under the land use of
‘Dwellings-Multiple Family’ by allowing requests for modifications to certain
development standards pursuant to a conditional use permit. Currently, only
multiple family residential projects developed under the land use of
‘Dwellings-Single-Family Attached’ are provided this flexibility; therefore,
this amendment will also provide consistency between land uses in this zone.
This amendment also streamlines the findings of fact for these requests to
comply with State law.
• Encroachments – Clarifies the permitted encroachments by moving the
existing list of encroachments into the three applicable setback categories:
abutting a public street, interior setbacks, and setbacks between buildings. This
will improve usability and further consolidate development standards within
the Multiple-Family Residential Zone classification.

a conditional use permit.

Development. The proposed changes include the following standards, as required

• Land Use Designation – Accessory Dwelling Units are permitted on all
properties with an existing single-family or multiple-family dwelling,
regardless of the Zoning or General Plan designation.
• Historic Buildings – Objective design and architectural standards for
Accessory Dwelling Units on properties with a historic building.

an ≤ 800 square foot Accessory Dwelling Unit outside of the front setback.

height. An additional two feet is permitted to accommodate a roof pitch.
• Parking – No parking is required when an Accessory Dwelling Unit is

• Multiple-Family – Up to two Detached Accessory Dwelling Units are

address numbers by providing the Planning and Building Department Director
with the authority to make the determination. Currently, the authority to issue new
street address numbers is provided to the Building Official and the authority to
modify street address numbers is provided to the City Council. This amendment
will consolidate and streamline the review. Change of street names will continue
to be under the authority of the City Council.
