DepXy City CIer4, and ex -officio Clerk of the City Council of the City of Costa Mesa EXHIBIT "A" FINDINGS A. The preliminary master plan amendment meets the broader goals of the 2000 General Plan, the North Costa Mesa Specific Plan and the Zoning Code by exhibiting excellence in design, site planning, integration of uses and structures, and protection of the integrity of neighboring development. Specifically, the proposed amendment does not cause the total building square footage, floor area ratio, and trip budget for the subarea to exceed that originally approved under Preliminary Master Plan PA -00-38. The types of uses will not change from the original approvals. B. Section 15168 (c) (2) of the CEQA guidelines allows a lead agency to use a previously -certified final program Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for subsequent activities, if the finding can be made that no new effects would occur and no new mitigation measures would be required. The proposed project is within the scope of Final EIR #1047 for the following reasons: A. The proposed project will not allow a land use intensity and/or density that would be inconsistent with the corresponding 2000 General Plan land use designation. Therefore, the proposed project will not alter the impact analyses contained in Final EIR #1047. B. There have not been substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project will be undertaken that would require important revisions to previous final EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental impacts not covered in the previous final EIR. C. No new information of substantial importance to the project has become available in respect to the significant effects of the project, the severity of the significant effects, the feasibility of the mitigation measures and alternatives, or the identification of new mitigation measures or alternatives that could lessen the significant effects of the project. D. Because there is no change to the impact analyses contained in Final EIR #1047 and no new information of substantial importance has become available, no new mitigation measures would be required as a result of approval of the project. D. The project, as conditioned, is consistent with Chapter XII, Article 3, Transportation System Management, of Title 13 of the Costa Mesa Municipal Code in that any future development project's traffic impacts will be mitigated as required by Final Program Environmental Impact Report #1047. EXHIBIT "B" CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL Ping. 1. Applicant is reminded that all conditions of approval of PA -00-38 and applicable mitigation measures of Final Program EIR #1047 still apply. 2. Comply with applicable provisions of the Theatre Arts District Plan, including, but not limited to, bus shelter and kiosk designs and locations. 3. Applicant shall submit a detailed pedestrian linkage plan between this area and the remainder of Town Center as part of the final master plan(s).
