RES-2015-266RESOLUTION NO. 2015-266 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2013-00490. (GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2013-00490) (DEV2013-00034A) WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim ("City Council") did adopt the Anaheim General Plan by Resolution No. 69R-644, showing the general description and extent of possible future development within the City; and WHEREAS, following the adoption of the Anaheim General Plan, several amendments and updates to the General Plan and certain elements thereof have been approved and adopted by the City Council over the years; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Chapter 18.68 of the Anaheim Municipal Code ("Code"), provisions of the General Plan may be amended whenever the public necessity and convenience and the general welfare require such amendment when adopted by a resolution of the City Council in the manner prescribed by law; and WHEREAS, the Platinum Triangle comprises approximately 820 acres located at the confluence of the Interstate 5 and State Route 57 ("SR -57 Freeway") freeways in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, generally east of the Interstate 5 Freeway, west of the Santa Ana River channel and the SR -57 Freeway, south of the Southern California Edison easement, and north of the Anaheim City limit. The Platinum Triangle encompasses the Angel Stadium, the Honda Center, the City National Grove of Anaheim, the Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center ("ARTIC"), and surrounding residential and mixed use development, light industrial buildings, industrial parks, distribution facilities, offices, hotels, restaurants, and retail development; and WHEREAS, since 1996, the City Council has approved several actions relating to the area encompassed by the Platinum Triangle; and WHEREAS, on May 30, 1996, the City Council certified Final Environmental Impact Report No. 320 and adopted Area Development Plan No. 120 for that portion of the Angel Stadium property associated with the Sportstown Development. Area Development Plan No. 120 entitled a total of 119,543 seats for new and/or renovated stadiums, 750,000 square feet of urban entertainment/retail uses, a 500 -room hotel (550,000 square feet), a 150,000 -square -foot exhibition center, 250,000 square feet of office development, and 15,570 on-site parking spaces. The Grove of Anaheim, the Angel Stadium and the Stadium Gateway Office Building were either developed or renovated under Area Development Plan No. 120; and WHEREAS, on March 2, 1999, the City Council adopted the Anaheim Stadium Area Master Land Use Plan ("MLUP"). The boundaries of the MLUP were generally the same as those for the Platinum Triangle, with the exception that the MLUP included 15 acres adjacent to the Interstate 5 freeway that are not a part of the current Platinum Triangle boundaries. As part of the approval process for the MLUP, the City Council also certified Final Environmental Impact Report No. 321 and adopted Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 106. Development within the boundaries of the MLUP was implemented through the Sports Entertainment Overlay Zone ("SE Overlay Zone"), which permitted current uses to continue or expand within the provisions of the existing zoning, while providing those who may want to develop sports, entertainment, retail, and office uses with standards appropriate to those uses, including increased land use intensity. Implementation of the SE Overlay Zone was projected to result in a net loss of 491,303 square feet of industrial space and increases of 1,871,285 square feet of new office space, 452,026 square feet of new retail space, and 991,603 square feet of new hotel space. Projects that were developed under the SE Overlay Zone included the Ayers Hotel, the Arena Corporate Center, and the Westwood School of Technology; and WHEREAS, on May 25, 2004, the City Council approved a comprehensive citywide General Plan and Zoning Code Update, which included a new vision for the Platinum Triangle. The General Plan Update (known as "General Plan Amendment No. 2004-00419") changed the General Plan designations within the Platinum Triangle from Commercial Recreation and Business Office/Mixed Use/Industrial to Mixed -Use, Office -High, Office -Low, Industrial, Open Space and Institutional to provide opportunities for existing uses to transition to mixed-use, residential, office, and commercial uses. The General Plan Update also established the overall maximum development intensities for the Platinum Triangle, which permitted up to 9,175 dwelling units, 5,000,000 square feet of office space, 2,044,300 square feet of commercial uses, industrial development at a maximum floor area ratio ("FAR") of 0.50, and institutional development at a maximum FAR of 3.0. In addition, the square footage/seats allocated to the existing Honda Center and all of the development intensity entitled by Area Development Plan No. 120 was incorporated into the Platinum Triangle Mixed -Use land use designation. Final Environmental Impact Report No. 330 ("FEIR No. 330"), which was prepared for the General Plan and Zoning Code Update and associated actions, analyzed the aforementioned development intensities on a City-wide impact level and adopted mitigation monitoring programs, including that certain Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Plan No. 106 for the Platinum Triangle; and WHEREAS, on August 17, 2004 and in order to provide the implementation tools necessary to realize the City's new vision for the Platinum Triangle, the City Council replaced the MLUP with the Platinum Triangle Master Land Use Plan (the "PTMLUP"), replaced the SE Overlay Zone with the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone ("PTMU Overlay Zone"), approved the form of a Standardized Platinum Triangle Development Agreement, and approved associated zoning reclassifications. Under those updated zoning regulations, property owners desiring to develop under the PTMU Overlay Zone provisions were thereafter required to enter into a standardized Development Agreement with the City of Anaheim; and WHEREAS, on October 25, 2005, the City Council certified Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report No. 332 ("FSEIR No. 332"), adopted a Statement of Findings of Fact, a Statement of Overriding Considerations, and the Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 106A to provide for the implementation of the PTMLUP, in conjunction with its consideration and approval of General Plan Amendment No. 2004-00420, Miscellaneous Case No. 2005-00089 and Zoning Code Amendment No. 2004-00036, which 2 collectively allowed for an increase in the allowable development intensities within the Platinum Triangle to 9,500 residential units, 5,000,000 square feet of office uses, and 2,254,400 square feet of commercial uses; and WHEREAS, also on October 25, 2005 and in response to the application of Lennar Platinum Triangle, LLC ("Original Developer"), Don H. Watson, Trustee of the Don H. Watson Family Trust, Julius Realty Corporation, Traffic Control Services, Inc., Joselito D. Ong and Renee Dee Ong, Roger C.

A project Environmental Impact Report was also approved to increase the allowable development intensities by an additional 699 residential units to bring the total allowable development intensity within the Platinum Triangle up to 10,266 residential units, 5,055,550 square feet of office uses, and 2,264,400 square feet of commercial uses; and WHEREAS, on February 13, 2007, the City embarked upon a process to amend the General Plan, the PTMLUP, the PTMU Overlay Zone, the Platinum Triangle Standardized Development Agreement, and related zoning reclassifications to increase the allowable development intensities within the Platinum Triangle to up to 18,363 residential units, 5,657,847 square feet of commercial uses, 16,819,015 square feet of office uses, and 1,500,000 square feet of institutional uses (the "Platinum Triangle Expansion Project"); and WHEREAS, on December 11, 2007, the City Council certified Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report No. 334 ("FSEIR No. 334") adopting a Statement of Findings of Fact, a Statement of Overriding Considerations, and the Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 106A in conjunction with its consideration and approval of General Plan Amendment No. 2004-00420, Miscellaneous Case No. 2005-00089, Zoning Code Amendment No. 2004-00036, and a series of other related actions in order to provide for the implementation of the PTMLUP and approval of the Platinum Triangle Expansion Project; and WHEREAS, a lawsuit was filed challenging the adequacy of FSEIR No. 334. The City Council thereafter repealed the approval of the Platinum Triangle Expansion Project, including FSEIR No. 334 and various related actions, and directed staff to prepare a new Subsequent Environmental Impact Report for the Platinum Triangle Expansion Project; and WHEREAS, the Developer's request for an amendment to the Original Development Agreement to extend the term for an initial period of five (5) years to an initial period of ten (10) years and for revisions to the "Term Extension Milestones" was approved by the City Council on December 16, 2008. Accordingly, on or about January 21, 2009, the City and Developer entered into that certain Amendment No. I to the Original Development Agreement, which was recorded in the Official Records on February 23, 2009 as Instrument No. 2009000081175 ("Amendment No. I"); and WHEREAS, the Original Development Agreement and Amendment No. I shall be referred to herein collectively as the "Existing Development Agreement"; and WHEREAS, the Existing Development Agreement and the Original Development Approvals shall be referred to herein collectively as the "Existing Entitlements"; and V WHEREAS, on or about October 26, 2010, the City Council approved the Revised Platinum Triangle Expansion Project, which included amendments to the General Plan ("General Plan Amendment No. 2008-00471"), the PTMLUP ("Miscellaneous Case No. 2007-00188"), the PTMU Overlay Zone, and related zoning reclassifications to increase the allowable development intensities within the PTMU Overlay Zone from 10,266 residential units up to 18,909 residential units, 14,340,522 square feet of office uses, 4,909,682 square feet of commercial uses, and 1,500,000 square feet of institutional uses.

That proposed General Plan Amendment 2013-00490 maintains internal consistency with the General Plan. The proposed modifications to the Land Use Element, Circulation Element, and Green Element of the General Plan are consistent with Goals 5.1 and 15.1 of the Land Use Element to create and enhance dynamic, identifiable places for the benefit of Anaheim residents, employees and visitors, and to continue to establish The Platinum Triangle as a thriving economic center that provides residents, visitors and employees with a variety of housing, employment, shopping and entertainment opportunities that are accessed by arterial highways, transit systems and pedestrian promenades, which is consistent with the goals and policies set forth in the General Plan for the Mixed Use land use designation and the Platinum Triangle Master Land Use Plan, as proposed to be amended by, and contingent upon and subject to the approval by the City Council of, Miscellaneous Case No. 2015-00598, now pending; 2. That proposed General Plan Amendment 2013-00490 would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City because the proposed relocation of the two public parks is consistent with the goals and policies of the Land Use Element of the General Plan encouraging mixed-use and commercial development that provides safe, protected places for SL pedestrians to walk, attractive surroundings, opportunities for social interaction, and comfortable places to sit and relax; 3. That proposed General Plan Amendment 2013-00490 continues to be consistent with the intent of the General Plan and would maintain the balance of land uses within the City; and 4.
