building materials, and other site characteristics. The shortest, smallest and least visible antennas

where the opportunity exists or where visibility impacts are a concern. Facility antennas shall be

minimize visibility. Facilities shall be painted or textured using colors to match or blend with
the primary background.

wireless communication facilities unless required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Lightning arresters and beacons shall be included when calculating the height of facilities such as

rooms, shall be placed within an interior space of the existing building, underground, within a
landscaped planter within the existing parking lot, or on the rooftop of the existing building.
Support facilities shall be designed to match the architecture of adjacent buildings and/or

with surrounding landscaping and shall be of a type and variety capable of screening all or a
portion of the facility as approved by the Planning Director.

communication facility except in industrial zones where the fence is not visible to the public
right-of-way or adjacent non -industrial zone.
.0511 The height of the wireless communication facility shall not exceed the
height limits of the applicable underlying or overlay zone unless otherwise authorized by a
conditional use permit; provided, however, that in the "(SC)" Overlay Zone the height of a
stealth facility may exceed the height limit up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) without a
conditional use permit. The following findings shall be adopted when approving a conditional
use permit that increases the allowable height:
.01 The Planning Commission has reviewed alternative options
provided by the applicant and staff, including but not limited to additional and/or different
locations and designs, and has determined that the application as approved would have a lesser
impact on the aesthetics and welfare of the surrounding community as compared to other
18
alternatives;
.02 Based on the evidence presented, the additional height above the
maximum building height for the applicable zone is reasonably necessary for collocation of
facilities or for the efficient operation of the proposed facility; and
mitigated."
.03 Any negative impacts of the proposed facility are properly

18.116.050 DEVELOPMENT AREAS.
The Specific Plan area encompasses two land use districts and two overlays as set forth below:
.010 Commercial Recreation (C-R) District — Identified as Development Area 1 on Exhibit 3.3.1a of
the Specific Plan document entitled "Development Plan." Development density areas for this district are
set forth in Section 18.116.060 (Development Density Areas — Commercial Recreation (C-R) District
(Development Area 1)). Development regulations for this district are set forth in this chapter.
.020 Public Recreation (PR) District — Identified as Development Area 2 on Exhibit 3.3.1 a of the
Specific Plan document entitled "Development Plan." Development Regulations for this district are set
forth in Section 18.116.110 (Land Use and Site Development Standards — Public Recreation (PR) District
(Development Area 2)).
.030 Mobilehome Park (MHP) Overlay — MHP Overlay boundaries are identified on Exhibit 3.3.2a
of the Specific Plan Document entitled "Mobilehome Park (MHP) Overlay Zone." Development
Regulations for the MHP Overlay are set forth in Section 18.116.120 (Mobilehome Park (MHP) Overlay).
18.116.060 DEVELOPMENT DENSITY AREAS — COMMERCIAL RECREATION (C-R) DISTRICT
(DEVELOPMENT AREA 1).
.010 Purpose. To permit the maximum amount of development in the Anaheim Resort Specific
Plan area consistent with The Anaheim Resort's infrastructure capacity, the Specific Plan establishes four
(4) density categories in the C-R District. These designations are based upon hoteVmotel development
and allow up to twenty percent (20%) of each hotel/motel project gross square footage, excluding parking
facilities, to be developed with integrated (i.e., included within the main hotel/motel complex) accessory
uses. These accessory uses will reduce the otherwise maximum permitted hotel/motel density at the rate
of one hotel/motel room per six hundred (600) gross square feet of accessory use. For properties
proposed to be developed with permitted and conditionally permitted uses other than hotels/motels with
accessory uses, the traffic generation characteristics of said uses shall not exceed those associated with
the otherwise permitted hotel/motel (including accessory uses) density as determined by the City Traffic
and Transportation Manager prior to Final Site Plan review and approval. Boundaries of the density
areas are depicted in Exhibit 3.3.3b, (C-R District Development Density Plan) of the Specific Plan
document.
.020 The maximum number of hotel/motel rooms allowed in each density category is shown in
Table 116-13 of Section 18.116.060 (Development Density Areas — Commercial Recreation (C-R) District
(Development Area 1)).

Up to 75 rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms per lot or parcel existing on the
date of adoption of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan, whichever is greater,
except that for that area identified as Area 8 on Exhibit 9.1a of the Specific
Plan document entitled "Legal Description Areas" (Amendment No. 3), the
maximum density shall be 75 rooms per gross acre.
Medium Density
Up to 100 rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms per lot or parcel existing on the
date of adoption of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan whichever is greater.

.030 Exceptions.
.0301 For parcels that are developed with hotel or motel rooms which exceed the maximum

of the adoption of the specific plan amendment ordinance) may be rebuilt or modified at their existing
density.
.0302 Densities of contiguous parcels/lots may be combined for the purpose of developing
a master plan project without processing a subdivision map to combine the parcels/lots subject to the
following:
.01 That the density on one or more parcels/lots may exceed the maximum density
allowed for said parceUlot provided that: the maximum overall density permitted for the combined
parcelsllots is not exceeded; the proposed project does not exceed traffic impacts associated with the
otherwise permitted hotel/motel density as determined by the City's Traffic and Transportation Manager,
and, that the environmental effects associated with the proposed project are consistent with those cleared
by the Environmental Impact Report for the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan (EIR No. 313) or other final
environmental documentation.
.02 That the proposed density for each parcelflot is shown on the Final Site Plan
processed in accordance with subsection 18.116.040.020 (Final Site Plan Review and Approval).
.03 That an unsubordinated covenant shall be recorded on each of the affected
parcels limiting the density of each parcel to that shown on the approved Final Site Plan and that said
covenant shall be recorded prior to the issuance of the first building permit for the master plan project.
The covenant shall be prepared in a form satisfactory to the City Attorney and shall be recorded with the
Office of the Orange County Recorder. A copy of the recorded covenant shall then be submitted to the
Planning Department.
