RES-2016-206RESOLUTION NO. 201 6-206 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING AND ADOPTING GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2015-00504. (GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2015-00504) (DEV2015-00024) 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 of the City of Anaheim ("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 renovated Angel Stadium and the Stadium Gateway Office Building were developed/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 above 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 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, on December 18, 2007 and in response to the application of Platinum Triangle Partners, LLC ("Original Owner") for entitlements allowing for the development of a residential project consisting of up to 878 residential units, two public parks, and new public connector streets (the "Original Project") on certain real property consisting of approximately 15.6 acres and bounded by State College Boulevard on the west, Orangewood Avenue on the south, and Angel Stadium of Anaheim on the north (the "Property"), the City Council determined that the Second Addendum to FSEIR No. 332 was adequate to serve as the required environmental documentation for the Original Project and that no further environmental documentation needed to be prepared for the Original Project and the "Original Development Approvals" (as defined below) for the Original Project; and 2 WHEREAS, the entitlements for the Original Project consisted of (1) Conditional Use Permit No. 2006-05093, to permit two residential towers up to 350 feet in height; (2) Development Agreement No. 2006-00002 to provide for the development of the A -Town Stadium Master Site Plan; and (3) Tentative Tract Map No. 16860 to establish a 10 -lot, residential subdivision (collectively, the "Original Development Approvals"); and WHEREAS, on December 18, 2007, the City Council approved the Original Development Approvals for the Original Project; thereafter, the City and the Original Owner entered into the Original Development Agreement on or about January 22, 2008, which was recorded in the Official Records of the County of Orange on January 22, 2008 as Instrument No. 200800003 1001 (the "Original Development Agreement"); and WHEREAS, following the certification of FSEIR No. 332, the City Council approved two addenda to FSEIR No. 332 in conjunction with requests to increase the Platinum Triangle intensity by 67 residential units, 55,550 square feet of office development, and 10,000 square feet of commercial uses. 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, on December 16, 2008, the City Council approved that certain Amendment No. I to the Original Development Agreement for the purpose of extending the initial term of the Original Development Agreement to January 22, 2016.
