SAH Annexation Specific Plan Pp�,T Q o 3 z C'9</ FO FN�P August 15, 1983 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH P.O. BOX 1768, NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92663-3884 PLANNING DEPARTMENT (714) 640-2197 Mr. Raymond H. C. Brantley Environmental Analysis Division Orange County EMA Box 4048 Santa Ana, CA 92702 Dear Mr. Brantley: The City of Newport Beach appreciates this opportunity to comment upon Draft EIR 430 (Supplement to EIR 277). As stated in our previous correspondence (attached), the project lies within the Newport Beach Sphere of Influence and is in conflict with the Newport Beach General Plan which designates the site for Low Density Residential Use. The City does not consider the proposed offices an appropriate use for the site. Annexation proceedings' have been commenced for eastern Santa Ana Heights, which includes the project site. The City is currently preparing pre -zoning for the area. This is not addressed in the DEIR. Approval of a change of use for the site at this time could prejudice the City's pre -zoning efforts. It is therefore suggested that consideration of the proposed project cease. The City has reviewed the DEIR and has the following additional comments which should be addressed if the document is to be considered adequate. 1. Traffic and Circulation - DEIR 430 states that "the project's . . . traffic caused only the Irvine Avenue and Bristol Street intersection to exceed one percent." This statement is unclear. Does the intersection or the traffic increase one percent? To what does the one percent refer? Existing traffic or capacity? 2. Traffic and Circulation - Who will be responsible for widening adjacent roadways to ultimate cross -sections? What will the ultimate cross section be? 3. Noise - The.DEIR should •discuss impacts of project generated noise on the nearby residence. 4. Land Use - What is the potential that Parcel No. 119-231-21 will be "integrate" with the proposed project? If this is currently viewed as a potential portion of the proposed project, this should be so stated and impacts associated with more intensive use of the parcel should be examined in detail. 3300 Newport Boulevayd, Newport Beach Brantley August 15, 1983 Page 2. 5. Land Use - It would seem that due to potential impacts, including "increased traffic, noise, etc.", the compatibility of the proposed project with residential uses would be "directly apparent" to a reasonably perceptive individual. The DEIR should state that there will exist a conflict between residential and commercial uses. 6. Land Use - The projects relationship to the Newport Beach General Plan should be examined in detail. , 7. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts - The list of long term unavoidable adverse impacts should include impacts on recreation and impacts on housing due to removal of existing units and increased demand from employees of the proposed offices. 8. Alternatives for the Proposed Project - While it is recognized that potential impacts of equestrian activities might significantly affect the environment under certain circumstances, EIR 277 discussed such impacts on a speculative level using such phrases as "may contribute," "no published information is known to confirm this . . . potential," and "it is not known whether." Therefore, on the basis of information included in DEIR's 277 & 430 it cannot be stated with any degree of certainty whether or not "the current equestrian activity has [emphasis added] generated negative impacts to the environment. 9. Growth Inducing Impacts - This section should discuss "the potential for integration of an adjacent parcel (Assesor's Parcel No. 119-231-21) with the development of the project site" mentioned in the Land Use Section. 10. Wastewater - At the time EIR 277 was certified, sanitary sewers were at or near capacity, and the Costa Mesa Sanitary District was considering alternative methods of increasing service. Can the District currently provide additional service? The City of Newport Beach has received no Notice of Preparation for DEIR 430. As specified under State CEQA Guidelines, a Supplement to an EIR is subject to the same noticing requirements as the original EIR. We will, therefore, consider this only a Preliminary Draft. Upon receipt of the final Draft EIR, the City will provide additional comments. If you have any questions regarding any of these comments please call me at (714) 640-2197.

PUBLIC COMMENTS REPORTS FROM THE EMA Page Two STUDY SESSION ITEM NO. 6_ //1a77/gi / CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH • OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER • 0 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS ANNEXATION UPDATE As previously reported, the Mayor and City staff met with Supervisor Riley and County staff to discuss financing for sewers, roadways and a fire station in Santa Ana Heights. The City staff has recommended no consideration of annexation until such financing is in place. In response, the County will hire an engineering consultant to evaluate and prioritize several requests, including the City's, for infrastructure financing. The consultant should be hired by January 1990 with a report due three to four months later. Several months beyond that will no doubt be needed to formalize any decision or agreement. City staff has prepared a complete annexation study including cost/revenue. However, unless the Council desires differently, consideration of the report will be delayed pending the decision by the County on infrastructure financing. KJD:mb 4" .� — Kenneth J.`Delino STUDY SESSION ITEM NO. 7 C CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER SEPTEMBER 25, 1989 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS ANNEXATION UPDATE Attached is a time line of activities which the Council has previously reviewed. The Birch -Mesa alignment was approved July 29, 1989, and the Annexation Study including cost/revenue projections, is now complete with one notable exception. Sewer service requires $2.2 million in improvements to meet the •urgent demand of the rapidly developing business park. The Costa Mesa Sanitary District which now serves the area has no desire to finance this amount, and City staff cannot recommend annexation with an unfunded liability of this magnitude. Consequently, staff is pursuing discussions with the County regarding funding by the Community Redevelopment Agency for the sewer improvements. Also, the prospect of new developer fees will be discussed with the Costa Mesa Sanitary District. The complete annexation study will be agendized when the source of funds for sewer improvements is determined.

Box 4048 Santa Ana, CA 92702-4048 RE: Santa Ana Heights Trail Study. Dear Mr. Battin, I would like to thank you for your presentation at the Project Area Committee 'PAC" meeting on January 16, 1990. Your efforts help maintain a balance in the community, contributing to its well-being. One question comes to mind regarding the proposed trail system. Would it be a big expense to put a trail in at this time on Cypress Street and Mesa Drive when the possibility of change in the community may occur within the next five years? I am enclosing two alternative sketches that show Cypress Street with its rural look, still accommodating horses on the street. Many home owners that I have shown these sketches say they would support them. The sketches serve as an alternative to the Exhibit 13 sketch that was in the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan. With either sketch, a street sweeper would easily be able to keep the street clean and free of the fertilizer which sometimes lies along a mottled path. Another very important detail to consider is that there should be no trailers, dumpsters„ or commercial trucks parked along the roadway. These become hazardous obstacles for equestrians as well as local residents travelling in their vehicles. Thank You, Rita Jones CC.

DRIVE SANTA SANK HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN ` _ • CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER April 9, 1990 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: City Manager SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS STUDY SESSION Agenda Item No. §. On October 25, 1989 a status report was submitted to the • City Council concerning the proposed annexation of Santa Ana Heights. Attached is a copy of that report. Following the meeting referenced in the report the County commissioned a consultant to study the improvements needed in Santa Ana Heights and recommend financial responsibilities and scheduling of said improvements. The preliminary report from this consultant was released during the week of March 19th. The City obtained a copy and met with the County staff on March 22nd to review our preliminary position concerning the report. Attached is a memo from the Executive Assistant dated March 23rd relating the events of the March 22nd meeting. Please notice Table XII-1 of the Executive Assistant's report. This Table is a summary of the County consultant's recommendations with respect ' to the necessary improvements within Santa Ana Heights. You will notice that this Table suggests that the City fund 50% of the Mesa/Birch Street improvements at a • cost of $6,695,285. Furthermore, the reports states that Newport Beach should fund 50% of the Acacia and Orchard Street improvements for $1,308,530. Finally, the report recommends that the City fund in its entirety the fire station for $3,780,000. The total cost to Newport Beach would be $11,783,815 or 48% of the total costs listed in the consultant's report for improvements. It would not be feasible to annex Santa Ana Heights at these costs. Staff would never V -2- • recommend to the City Council the annexation of an area which undoubtedly would be a liability upon the City. Initially, and in verbal discussions, the County •indicated that the Redevelopment Agency would fund the Mesa/Birch and the Acacia and Orchard Street improvements. They were noncommittal but left the impression of being favorable towards the Redevelopment Agency also funding the fire station. Staff will continue meeting with the County to attempt a modification of the financial responsibilities for the improvements within Santa Ana Heights. If we are successful, the City staff is ready to submit 'the cost benefit studies and other financial data to the City Council to commence the annexation proceedings. If the City is not successful in modifying the report, this will be reported to the City Council but it undoubtedly will be staffs recommendation that the City not proceed with the annexation. w ROBERT L. RLW:kf Enclosures • C • • • CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER October 25, 1989 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: City Manager SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS On Thursday, October 19th Mayor Strauss, the City Manager, the Public Works Director, and the Executive Assistant met with Supervisor Riley, several County Aids representing the CAOs office, the Planning Department, and the Redevelopment Agency. The purpose of the meeting was to determine whether the Redevelopment Agency would advance approximately $2.2 million necessary to fund the sewer improvements, advance approximately $6 million for the construction of the Birch -Mesa improvements, and to acquire land and construct a fire station for approximately $1.7 million. The City, in turn, would impose a connection fee on all redevelopment projects with said fee being transferred to the Redevelopment Agency to partially pay them for their sewer improvement program of $2.2 million. The City would also pay for the equipment and staffing of the new fire station which would serve Santa Ana Heights and all City property North of Bristol, and would serve the unincorporated County property for a fair share fee. It seems to staff that the three issues must be known before we complete the annexation of Santa Ana Heights. Any one of the three projects would have significant impact upon the cost benefit analysis of the proposed annexation. We concluded the meeting in .Supervisor Riley's office by asking the County for an answer on these three items, and if the answer is affirmative to give us a schedule for said improvements. This data would then be incorporated into a pre -annexation agreement assuring the improvements. I Hopefully within a matter of weeks the County will respond to the City's requests, at which time another formal report • will be made to the City Council at a Study Session. The purpose of this memo is just a status report on the annexation proposal. If you have any questions, please contact either the undersigned or Ken Delino. RLW:kf cc: K. Delino B. Nolan Attachment • • ROBERTL. WYNN • • • CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER MARCH 23, 1990 TO: CITY MANAGER FROM: EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS IMPROVEMENTS COSTS Attached is a table summarizing the findings of the County's study regarding the subject. Don Webb and I reviewed these findings with the County's staff on March 22nd. Our comments followed three general observations. First, the costs of the needed facilities appear resonably accurate and as complete as can be expected at this stage of investigation. Second, the technical basis for the fire station recommendation assumes that only the City would benefit from the new fire station. We pointed out to the County that the commercial development in the redevelopment area creates a need for additional fire service, that the proposed relocation of the airport fire station provides poor service to the City and duplicative service for the County, and that the good government solution would be to build only one new fire station in a location which best serves both agencies and which could be operated jointly. County staff seemed receptive to this argument and promised to pursue it further. Third, we strongly objected to the assumptions used to spread responsibility among the various agencies. These assumptions dis- regard the historical commitments made by the County regarding this area. We reminded County staff that it is the large amount of commercial development which creates the need for all this additional and costly infrastructure. This commercial development benefits the airport and relieves it of the enormous costs of aircraft noise liability. Since the County could not afford to buy this land or compensate its owners,the Redevelopment Agency was formed to finance the conversion of this land from residential to the more noise compatible commercial uses. The County's study states that the City will benefit from the increased tax base associated with p• • • • Page 2 the commercial development and therefore should assume the responsi- bility for funding infrastructure improvements. We pointed out to the County that the City is losing tax increment as a result of the redevelopment and is also assuming the environmental impacts associated with airport expansion. We presented a strong case for shifting almost all of the funding responsibility to the Redevelop- ment Agency except for a pro rata share of the fire station and except for whatever funds could be recouped from developers through exactions and dedications. The County staff acknowledged our arguments but made no commitments. While this is still a draft report and opportunities to change it still exist, nevertheless the potential for a serious conflict is clearly evident. The County has promised to respond to our comments and I will keep you informed as this issue unfolds. KJD:mb cc: Don Webb J w I L KU Kenneth J.

Recreational Horse Permit Procedures Within the REQ District, most lots are relatively small (less than one- half acre), are very narrow (66 feet wide) and are surrounded by existing tract housing, existing retail commercial uses and proposed business park development. Due to the unique site and configuration of these lots and their close proximity to more urbanized uses, it is necessary to require a Recreational Horse Permit for the noncommercial keeping of horses and ponies for the purpose of ensuring compatibility with surrounding land uses. It is the intention of the County to provide for annual inspections of such equestrian facilities by all pertinent authorities, including Vector Control, Animal Control, Environmental Health, Regulation Enforcement and others, as necessary, to ensure that the regulations set forth below are being properly implemented. All regulations associated with Recreational Horse Permits, except provisions pertaining to escapes of animals, shall be enforced by the Director, Environmental Management Agency, or his designee. Within one year of the effective date of these regulations, any property owner or tenant keeping more than two (2) horses and/or ponies, over the age of eight (8) monthso on a single building site within the REQ District shall obtain a Recreational Horse Permit approved by the Director, EMA.

The Director, EMA shall issue a permit for the keeping of such animals upon receipt of the fee established by the Board of Supervisors, if any, and when, in his opinion, 1) such animals are being kept or maintained without endangering the safety and comfort of the inhabitants of the neighborhood, and 2) the property owner or tenant has complied with the regulations below and the REQ District regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations or any conditions imposed by the Director, EMA shalt constitute cause for denial or revocation of such permit. Any person whose application for a Recreational Horse Permit is denied or revoked under the terms of this specific plan may appeal the decision of the Director, EMA to the Board of Supervisors in accordance with the procedures set forth in section 5-2-19 of the Business and Special licenses Regulations.

Landscape Guidelines Landscape design is a crucial element in achieving a distinctive development character and in blending the development with the existing character of surrounding land uses. This character will be reinforced through the coordinated design and selection of landscape and paving materials and emphasis on special features such as antryways and signage. The overall landscape and buffer plan for the specific plan area is illustrated in Bxhibit 11. Guidelines are specified herein for the following landscape components of the plant • Streatscape • Bntry treatment • Suffer design • Parking lot design • Nardscape and street furniture design • Landscape maintenance 1. Streetscape business Park Streetscaea - Acacia and Birch $treetop and Orchard Drive Acacia street, birch Street and Orchard Drive roadways wore originally each designed with two eleven -foot and two thirteen -foot travel lugs and a six-foot walkway on either side. Acacia Street and Orchard Driwo (within the Business Park District) are now designed with 10 foot right-of-ways. Bach street is designed with four (4) twelve -foot travel lanesp and a five-foot bikeway and a six-foot walkway on either side. Adjacent to the valkways, outside the right-of-vayt a ten -foot landscaped setback is required (Bxhibit 12). birch Street is now designed with an AO foot right-of-vay. It has the same improvements as Acacia Street and Orchard Drive but with the added feature of a ten -foot median/left turn pocket (Exhibit 12A). The streetscape for the business park area will be installed by individual property owners concurrent with development of approved projects. Ongoing maintenance will be the responsibility of individual property owners. 4. Building Entrances 6 Site access, entrance drives and building entries shall be readily observable and inviting to the first-time visitor. Care shall be taken to provide minimum• conflict between service vehicles, private automobiles, and pedestrians. Building entries shall be integrated with overall building form and should be highlighted,by such features as: - entry porte-cocheres plazas - special planters and plantings textured hardscape S. Building Rooflines Roofs may be sloped, in a hip, gable, or shed fashion. Flat roofs are permissible. Wood, shingle, shake and tile roofs are encouraged and must meet Building and Fire Code requirements. Reflective metal roofing material is prohibited. Asphalt and fiberglass materials are permitted only on flat roofs where screened from view. In all cases, roof -mounted mechanical equipment shall be screened from view with materials finished to match materials and colors in the roof and building. 6. Energy Considerations Passive solar design orientation is -encouraged. Solar collectors, if used, shall be oriented away from public view or designed as an integral element of the roof structure.

Exterior Building Materials The following shall be used as predominant exterior wall materials throughout the business park area. A combination of these materials is encouraged to soften and add architectural interest to building facades. . wood. Brick. Architecturally treated concrete, concrete masonry, and block. These materials are to be painted or integrally colored in tones ranging from whites to earth tones. Stucco, with a smooth finish in natural gray or colors ranging from whites to earth tones. Accent materials and colors shall be coordinated to achieve a continuity of design with the overall structure and surrounding structures. 3. Glazing The use of glass shalt be subdued and in harmony with the building and the natural surroundings. Glazing shalt be used predominately for the purpose of lighting interior space. Glazing shalt not be used as a major architectural alemento but may be used as an accent feature to add variety to building facades. Mirrorod glazing shall not be used. I1 W ti grade changes should be considered in order to minimize mass and bulk of builaings. Special consideration shall be given architecturally to emphasize pedestrian areas such as entryways, walkways, and courtyards/plazas (e.g., trellises, low parapet walls, extended roof or patio overhangs). Buildings clustered around a pedestrian area, such as a courtyard/plaza, shall be designed to minimize excessive shading and maximize light exposure. Long, uninterrupted exterior walls shall be' avoided on all buildings. For architectural interest, waT1s shall incorporate relief features 'and negative space to create an interesting blend with the landscaping, other buildings and the casting of shadows. Incorporation of small-scale elements such as planters, installation of mature landscaping and landform manipulation will 'aid in sof •tng'the overall mass of structures'. Particular consideration as to color, material, and form shall be given to the 'design and treatment of roofs .because of their potential visual impact. Roof flashing, rain gutters, downspouts and vents shall be treated to match materials and/or colors of the overall building. All roof equipment shall be screened with materials/colors consistent with the treatment of the building. Utilization of windows shall be encouraged in order to extend interior space to the outside and to create a visual connection with the exterior setting of courtyard or plaza areas. Walls and/or fences shall be used to screen utility and maintenance structures/facilities and storage areas. These surfaces shall III-2 COMMUNITY DESIGN PROGRAN A. Introduction The intent of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan design guidelines is to promote a consistent, high quality character of development that will result in the overall enhancement of the aesthetic character of the community. Use of these guidelines in future project approvals will advance these objectives through the careful use of buildinq forms and materials, streetscape concepts, setback and buffer areas and a unifying landscape concept. Combined, these elements will provide a sense of identity to the specific plan area and development which will complement existing and surrounding land uses. Consolidation of single lots within the business park area of Santa Ana Heights can provide for more flexibility in the design of office development, thereby enhancing the aesthetic character and cohesiveness of the development. Lot consolidation• is encouraged within the business park area through the inherent benefits obtained whom developing on larger, consolidated parcels (e.g., the ability to dissolve setbacks along interior lot lines and to design more efficioncy into parkinq areas). B. Architectural Guidelines for Busimoss park Uses Due to the proximity of the areas designated for business park uses to residential uses, it is the stated objective of the County to provide architectural guidelines for business park uses which will blend in with and complement the residential areas of the community. In order to achieve that goal, the following guidelines will be of prime importance in the consideration of future development proposals. 1. Building Massing/form Buildinq facades abutting streets shall not have the appearance of excessive massing or shading. The use of grading techniques and III.

HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN El EXHIBIT M D. Recreation Plan The Recreation Plan is designed to enhance equestrian opportunities within the specific plan area with appropriate connections between local and regional trait systems. Exhibit 10 identifies those recreational facilities planned within and adjacent to the specific plan area. Elements of the Recreation Plan are as follows: A local equestrian trail is planned along the west side of Cypress Street from the north end of the street to Mesa Drive, then west along the south side of Mesa Drive to its intersection with Birch Street. The trail then continues south to connect with the proposed regional trails along Upper Newport Bay and the Santa Ana -Delhi channel. This local equestrian trail is also planned to extend east along Mesa Drive from Cypress Street to the proposed Upper Newport Bay regional trail. Acquisition of an appropriate site for development of a public equestrian center will be studied. Facilities within a center may include box stalls and pipe corrals, arenass horse rental facilities, parking and staging areas, and other related support facilities, including an office and storage rooms. If a site is acquired by the County, the property would .be developed and maintained by a private stable operator under a lease agreement with the County. Regional recreation facilities, either existing or proposed within the general area, include two existing golf courses, the Newport Beach Golf Course and Santa Ana Country Club; a proposed riding and hiking trail through Upper Newport Bay, linking the existing trait along San Diego Creek with the proposed trail along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel; an existing bikeway along Irvine Avenue south of University Drive; and proposed bikeways along Santa Ana Avenue, University Drive and through Upper Newport Bay. The County's Upper Newport Bay Regional Park is proposed to include the area covered by the Newport Beach Golf Course as well as land adjacent II-16 area affected by this drainage problem -is highlighted in Exhibit 9, the boundary of which is based -on existing topography. In order to adequately provide for surface runoff in this area, a comprehensive drainage plan and implementation program must be developed for the area highlighted in Exhibit 9 prior to any business park development within the affected area. Possible drainage solutions which are being considered include the following: An underground storm drain collection system A pumping station which collects storm runoff and pumps to an acceptable public storm drain system Funding possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district or developer contribution. 4.

Improvements to the existing system are shown in Exhibit 9 and are described as follows: Improvement Area 1: One 14-foot catch basin at Orchard Drive and Birch Street 30-inch RCP along Birch Street from Orchard Drive to Mesa Drive One 14-foot catch basin at Birch Street cul-de-sac One 7-foot catch basin at Mesa Drive to drain southerly. 30-inch RCP from Mesa Drive to Santa Ana -Delhi channel Improvement Area 2: 30-inch RCP on Cypress Street from Cypress Street cul=de-sac to South Bristol Street Two 14-foot catch basins at Cypress Street cul-de-sac Improvement Area 3: One 14-foot catch basin at Orchard Drive cul-de-sac 18-inch RCP from Orchard Drive cul-de-sac to Santa Ana -Delhi channel A localized drainage problem exists along Birch and Cypress streets south of Orchard Drive. In this area, surface runoff flows from parcels fronting on Cypress Street onto parcels along Birch Street. Ponding of water also occurs on at least one parcel along Birch Street. This drainage situation is a particular concern where business park development is planned to occur along Birch Street. Such development must provide for the transport of runoff from adjacent residential parcels to the drainage facilities planned. along Birch Street. The II-13 Improvement Feature B: Line 8, located along South Bristol Street, conveys flows from the specific plan area westerly to the 12-inch sewer lines which flow south along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel. This main serves as a major sewer trunktine serving the specific plan area, Line 8 is presently an 8-inch diameter line, a 15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Improvement Feature C: Line C, located along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel, conveys sewer flows from the western portion of Santa Ana Heights and the commercial center on Santa Ana Avenue. An 18-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Improvement Feature 0: Pump Station 11 collects sewer flows from various -areas of Santa Ana Heights and pumps to Sewer Pump Station 10 (Improvement Feature E). Pump Station 11 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service and remodeling of the existing wet well. Improvement Feature E: Pump Station 10 pumps sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights to the 24-inch sewer trunkline along Fair Drive (Improvement Feature F) which flows into the CMSD treatment facility. Pump Station 10 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls# electrical service and remodeling of the existing wet well. Improvement Feature F: Line F 1s a 24-inch trunktine located along Fair Drive which transports flows from Pump Station 10 to the CMSD treatment facility. A 15-inch parallel line is proposed to be Installed. 3. Drainage System Improvements In general, the existing storm runoff collection system within the specific plan area is adequate with the exception of areas where pro- posed circulation realignments and modifications will alter street II-12 Improvement Feature 4: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch tine on Orchard Drive in the western portion of the specific plan area south to Irvine Avenue. Improvement Feature 5: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Irvine Avenue from just south of the Santa Ana -Delhi channel to Mesa Drive. Improvement Feature 6: Relocation and new installation of seven fire hydrants. Improvement Feature 7: Replacement of 4-inch line with 6-inch line from Orchard Drive south along Riverside Drive. Improvement Feature 8: Replacement of 4-inch tine with 6-inch line along Kline Drive from Orchard Drive to 700 feet south. 2. Sewer System Improvements The Costa Most Sanitation District (CMSD) presently provides sewer service to.the specific plan area. Various sewer mains in the area are currently flowing at or near capacity. In order to adequately serve ultimate buildout, installation of SoM linear feet of 10-inch through 18-inch sewer mains and upgrading of two pump stations in the general area will be required. The following improvements (shown in Exhibit 8) have been identified for construction and/or upgrading. Improvement Feature A: ,Line A0 located on the north side of the Santa Ana -Delhi channel, conveys sewer flows from Bristol Street east to Santa Ana Avenue, and then continues south along the channel. This main does not convey sewer flows from the specific plan area. Line A is presently 8 inches in diameter and will be expanded to a 10-inch line.

Public Services/Utilities Plan The Public Services/Utilities Plan addresses the adequacy of existing water, sewer and drainage facilities to meet existing and ultimate demand and identifies those public works facility improvements needed to implement the Land Use Plan. The public works improvements recommended are based on a computer analysis which took into account ultimate buildout of the specific plan area, Orange County fire flow requirements and other design criteria. The proposed upgrading of facilities is required to eliminate deficiencies which will be created once the Specific Plan is implemented. Some relocation of facilities is necessary due to proposed realignments of street rights -of - way. Specific proposals for the improvement and modification of facilities and services are described below. 1. Water Distribution System Improvements The Santa Ana Heights Water Company presently provides adequate water service to the specific plan area to serve existing land uses. Ultimate development of the area, however, will require 7,400 linear feet of six-inch and eight -inch water mains and additional fire hydrants for fire protection. Planned improvements are shown in' Exhibit 7 and are described as follows: Improvement Feature 1: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Irvine Avenue and Acacia Street from South Bristol Street to Mesa Drive. Improvement Feature 2: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Mesa Drive from Acacia Street to Cypress Street. Improvement Feature 3; Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Mesa Drive from the intersection with Acacia Street west 500 feet. I I -8 S methodology will include extensive monitoring of traffic before any improvements are installed and then systematic monitoring of a variety of test alternatives. Each alternative would involve installation of temporary improvements for a period of possibly thirty days. The alternatives to be tested could includes 1) a cul-de-sac at the north and of Orchid Street, 2) the closure of Spruce Avenue, 3) closure of the north and of Orchid Street and the south and of Bayviev Avenue and S) the closure of both Spruce and Bayview Avenues just north of Asure Street to northbound traffic in tandem with the Orchid Street cul-de-sac. Other alternatives might be tested in addition to or in lieu of those mentioned above. The community would be consulted both before and after the program is implemented. Both traffic engineering criteria and community input would be considered in evaluating the results of the program. Improvement Feature 3s Realignment of the intersection at Mesa Drive and Acacia Street. Modified by Improvement Feature 7. Improvement Feature 6: Construction of a cul-de-sac at'the eistern end of Orchard Drive within the western portion of Santa Ana Heights and vacation of remaining right-of-way. With the approval of the second amendment to this Specific Plan the following improvement features as shown on Exhibit 6A were added: Improvement Feature 7: Realignment of the Birch Street/Mess Drive intersection. This new improvement will delete the need for the major realignment of Acacia/Mesa intersection (Improvement Feature S) and the cul-de-sac closure of Birch Street (Improvement Feature 2). Improvement Feature St Additional right-of-way and pavement width on the Business Park streets (70 foot total right-of-vay for Orchard Drive and Acacia Street, and 80 foot total right-of-way for Birch). Mesa Drive frog Irvine Avenue to Birch Street will also be increased to an 80 foot right-of-vay. These circulation improvements are to be implemented in a phased manner to best, achieve the plan's objectives. Implementation of Improvement Feature I -through < would be given priority because they are designed to provide an early reduction or elimination of- through and business park traffic in residential neighborhoods. Improvement Feature 6 has been implemented in conjunction with development of office uses on the adjacent parcels. Improvement Feature 7 and 8 would be implemented when the required right-of-vay has been acquired. Funding possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district or developer contribution. :trkl,I_rl;*;:l: Uen :ICIM:111610 �: 0 B. Circulation Plan The Circulation Plan is designed to provide for safe vehicular, equestrian and pedestrian movement within and adjacent to the specific plan area. The area has been heavily impacted by nonresidential traffic attempting to avoid congested conditions on surrounding arterials. Thus, a primary consideration in the development of the plan was reduction of through traffic within residential areas. With the planned development of business park uses within areas adjacent to residential uses, another consideration was the separation of business park and residential traffic. Street improvements and modifications intended to achieve these objectives are illustrated in Exhibit 6 and described as follows: Improvement Feature 1: Installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and Orchard Drive. Improvement Feature 2: Construction of a cul-de-sac on Birch Street between Orchard Drive and Mesa Drive and vacation of remaining right- of-way (access to the most southerly Business Park parcels from Mesa Drive may be maintained via easement if property owners wish to stay in their homes and take access from Mesa Drive). Improvement Feature 3: Construction of a cul-de-sac on Cypress Street south of South Bristol Street. Implementation of the cul-de-sac will include a design study to determine configuration of Cypress Street north of the cul-de-sac. The cul-de-sac will be designed to allow for access to South Bristol Street from the northernmost property on the west side of Cypress Street within the Residential Equestrian District. Improvement Feature 4: Implementation of a circulation improvement test program to study and develop a method to control any potential through traffic in the Sayview tract. The program's objective would be development of an optimal solution, one that minimizes through traffic along Mesa Drive and in the Bayview tract without significantly inconveniencing a large number of residents: The test program II-5 Prdfessional-Administrative The "Professional -Administrative" category provides for the development and/or continued use of low -profile "business park" type professional and administrative offices. A relatively narrow range of commercial uses will be permitted in order to serve the immediate needs of surrounding office tenants. Design standards and regulations providing for structural setbacks and landscaped buffers will ensure that the potential for land use conflicts is minimal. This designation is applied primarily to properties along Acacia and 'Birch streets in the eastern portion of Santa Ana Heights. Agriculture The "Agriculture" category provides for a wide range of horticultural uses and applies to two properties located on the south side of Orchard Drive in the western section of Santa•Ana Heights. This designation will permit the continued operation of a commercial nursery on these properties. Recreation The "Recreation" category includes lands intended to serve the outdoor recreational needs of the area and region. Within the specific plan area, this designation applies to the Newport Beach Golf Course. Provisions contained within this specific plan ensure the long-term maintenance of the golf .course as a public recreational facility. 0 II-4 Medium Density Residential (3.5-6.5 DU/Ac) The general character of the "Medium Density Residential" category is single family detached dwelling units, although townhouses or cluster arrangements are permitted. Dog kennels and horticultural nurseries are also permitted uses under this category. Much of the western portion of the specific plan area is designated as "Medium Density Residential," including the Pegasus tract, the Riverside Drive cul-de- sac located off of Orchard Drive and the private cul-de-sac, Kline Drive, located off of Orchard Drive. . Medium High Density Residential (6.6-18.0 DU/Ac) The "Medium High Density Residential" category 1s designed to encourage and maintain greater densities of residential development. This designation provides for townhomes, condominiums, duplex and triplex units, apartments, and some small -tot, single family units. This category covers the duplex and apartment uses on the south side of Orchard Drive near Santa Ana Avenue and the apartments on Santa Ana Avenue Just west of the Pegasus tract. Lange Drive, a private street located off of Mesa Drive, also reflects this land use category. High Density Residential (18.0+ DU/Ac) The "High Density Residential" category provides for higher density multiple family residential development, including apartments and small -tot duplex, triplex and fourplex units. The two existing apartment complexes located along Mesa Drive between Santa Ana Avenue and Irvine Avenue are included in this category. . Community Commercial The "Community Commercial" category is designed to encourage commercial centers for retail trade, convenience goods, services and professional office uses. Much of the property along South Bristol Street, including the small commercial center located at Santa Ana Avenue, 1s designated "Community Commercial." II-3 1� Dllf IM: !j►V,I►v,WL IIwa:2:10 111E PLAN A. Land Use Plan The Board -adopted Land Use Plan for Santa Ana Heights reflects present and future physical, Market and environmental conditions and existing land use patterns. Within the specific plan area, the Land Use Plan calls for a variety of uses, including tow -rise office development, commercial uses, recreational facilities and varying densities of residential uses (most of which currently exist). Exhibit 5 depicts the adopted Land Use Plan for the specific plan area and details the general type, location and intensity of development proposed. The following land use categories identified for the spot correspond with the designations used in the Community Profile Component of the County's Advance Planning Program. Low Density Residential (0.5-2.0 DU/Ac) The general character of the "Low Density Residential" category is single family, large -tot estates within a semi -rural environment. This designation applies to property located south of Mesa Drive. Medium Low Density Residential (2.0-3.5 DU/Ac) The "Medium Low Density Residential" category provides for single family, large -lot residential uses with ancillary equestrian facilities. This category .is also designed for the maintenance of commercial equestrian stable facilities. This designation applies to properties located along Cgpress Street and along the north side of Mesa Drive between Acacia Street and the Upper day tract. Us THE PLAN i Chapter III provides the architectural and landscape guidelines and Chapter IV presents the land use district regulations to be applied to all development within the specific plan area. PP56-1 6274 The purpose of the LUCP was two -fold: 1) to establish a program to achieve compatibility between projected noise levels at JWA and land uses in all affected areas, and 2) to develop a comprehensive land use plan for the unincorporated Santa Ana Heights area. The Board -approved LUCP provides for the retention of all noise compatible land uses, such as open space, commercial and office uses. Other uses more sensitive to noise, such as residences, were also retained, except along Acacia and Birch streets where pressures for land use change were great. In order to meet state airport noise requirements in areas where residential uses were planned to remain, the Board approved two noise compatibility programs: Purchase Assurance and Acoustical Insulation. In areas where residential uses were planned to be eliminated, the Board adopted amendments to the General Plan Land Use Element and Community Profile providing for land use gonversion to business park uses. Basic land use patterns for the area were thus established, but land use regulations were not adopted. In order to establish land use regulations and other implementation programs tailored to the unique needs of Santa Ana Heights, the Board directed that both a redevelopment plan and specific plan be developed for the community. The Board adopted a Redevelopment Plan for the Santa Ana Heights Project Area on July 150 1966, The Project Area encompasses most of Santa Ana Heights, including all of the specific plan area, as well as John Wayne Airport and the proposed Upper Newport say Regional Park. The Redevelopment Plan allows the use of tax increment financing by the Orange County Development Agency. Tax increment financing enables the Agency to recapture property tax revenue from the Project Area to provide needed improvements within the area. The Redevelopment Plan is expected to serve as a useful tool to help finance the various projects being undertaken in the Santa Ana Heights area. These projects include the Purchase Assurance and Acoustical Insulation programs, circulation, recreation and public facility improvements in the area and neighborhood revitalization programs. In addition to this introduction, the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan consists of three chapters. Chapter II presents the following plan components: Land Use, Circulation, Public Services/Utilities and Recreation.

Land Uses Surrounding Specific Plan Area The City of Newport Beach, surrounds the eastern portion of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area. Along Irvine Avenue, between South Bristol Street and Orchard Drive, is a strip of office buildings, commercial businesses and several small homes within the City boundaries, Also within the City is the Corona del Mar Freeway (SR- 73), the recently approved Bayview Planned Development consisting of residential, office and hotel uses (under construction) and the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve to the north, Bast and south of the specific plan area, respectively. That portion of the Newport Beach Golf Course within the City also lies to the south of the study area. The City of Costa Mesa forms the northern boundary of the specific plan area along Bristol Street near Santa Ana Avenue. Existing uses include a new hotel and vacant land. Unincorporated land surrounding the study area consists of the existing Bayview and Upper Bay residential tracts and multi -acre estates to the east and south, and a wide variety of residential uses as well as the Santa Ana Country Club to the west. Exhibit 4 illustrates the location of land uses surrounding the specific plan area. < D. Planning Background Land use planning in the Santa Ana Heights area has been closely associated with the preparation of a master plan for John Wayne Airport (JWA). In February 1985, after several years of study and public meetings, the Orange County Board of Supervisors adopted a master plan for the airport and a Land Use Compatibility Program (LUCP) for the Santa Ana Heights area. A comprehensive environmental impact report (Final EIR 508) that addressed both plans was also certified at that time. I-6 1. Land Uses Within Specific Plan Area The Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area is characterized by a diversity of land uses. Existing uses to the eastern section of the specific plan area (east of Irvine Avenue) are predominantly residential, the lot pattern of which 1s heavily influenced by the community's historic ties to small plot agricultural activities. Parcels along Acacia, Birch and Cypress streets are predominantly one- half acre in size and consist of single family residences and multiple family units, along with equestrian stables, nurseries and other small businesses. Land uses along South Bristol Street include a mix of office, commercial and residential uses. Residential uses, including a 52-unit apartment complex, predominate along Birch Street between South Bristol Street and Orchard Drive; however# an office building has recently been constructed on a two -acre site on the west side of the street. Existing uses within the western portion of the specific plan area (west of Irvine Avenue) consist of a mixture of residential, commercial and recreational uses, including the Newport Beach Golf Course, a small commercial center on the corner of Bristol Street and Santa Ana Avenue, a number of apartment complexes ranging in size from 32 to 180 units, single family homes, nurseries, kennels and a veterinary clinic. The Riverside Drive cul-de-sac, located off of Orchard Drive, contains a small single family subdivision where a majority of residents currently operate dog kennels. Also located off of Orchard Drive is a private cut -de -sac, Kline Drive, containing a broad mix of land uses including single family homes, a horticultural nursery and vacant parcels used for vehicle storage purposes. Lange Drive. which is located off of Mesa Drive, includes single family homes, some of which are in a deteriorated state, and vacant parcels used for storage purposes. Also located within this portion of Santa Ana Heights is the Sherwood Estates tract (commonly referred to as the Pegasus tract), an BB -unit, single family subdivision constructed in the mid-19601s. The majority of these homes are well maintained. I-5 LOCAL VICINITY SANTA ANA HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN I-4 TIGHTS AREA N EXHIBIT 2 r.�;,7.� LOS ANOELE8 .

Goals and Objectives The overall goal of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan is to provide for the orderly and balanced development of the community consistent with the Board -adopted land use plan. In carrying out this goal, the principal objectives are the following: Encourage the upgrading of existing residential neighborhoods. Ensure well planned business park developments which are adequately buffered from adjacent residential neighborhoods. Encourage the consolidation of smaller contiguous lots in the business park area. Ensure that business park and residential traffic is separated. to the maximum extent possible, while minimizing impact upon existing parcels. Ensure adequate provision of public works facilities as development occurs. Enhance equestrian opportunities within the residential equestrian neighborhood. Enhance the overall aestheti,c character of the community. These goals and objectives have guided the preparation of this Specific Plan and are incorporated into the various components of the plan. C. Description of. Planning Area The Santa Ana Heights community consists of approximately 450 acres of unincorporated territory, located just south of John Wayne Airport in Orange County (Exhibit 1). In an offort to simplify the preparation of a specific plan for the community, most properties with zoning already consistent with the Board -adopted l-and use plan were not included within the specific plan area. The resulting study area covers approximately 175 acres and is generally bounded by South Bristol Street to the north, Mesa Drive to the south, Santa Ana Avenue to the west and residential property lines along Cypress Street to the east (Exhibit 2). I-2 INTRODUCTION A. Authorization and Purpose On February 26, 1985s the Orange County Board of Supervisors approved Reso- lution No. 85-257, which created a new land use plan for the unincorpora- ted community of Santa Ana Heights and directed the Environmental Manage- ment Agency (EMA) to prepare a specific plan for the community. the pur- pose of the specific plan effort was to provide a comprehensive set of plans, guidelines, regulations and implementation programs for guiding and ensuring the orderly development of Santa Ana Heights in accordance with the adopted land use plan. This document, in conjunction with the Orange County 'coning Code and other applicable ordinances, represents the specific plan for Santa Ana Heights. It has been prepared in accordance with the California Government Code (sections $5450 at seq.) and is consistent with the Board -adopted land use plan for the area. Adoption of this specific plan, in effect, repeals the zoning regulations previously applicable to properties within the specific plan boundaries and replaces them with a set of land use regulations unique to the area. As required by the Government Code, all future development proposed within the specific plan area must be found consistent with the adopted land use regulations. As specified by the Subdivision Map Act, all final or tenta- tive subdivision maps approved within the specific plan area must also be consistent with the specific plan. An important function of this specific plan and the accompanying supplemen- tal environmental impact report (Elk) is to reduce the need for extensive planning and environmental documentation related to subsequent development of the area. For development projects that are designed consistent with the specific plan provisions, the environmental documentation in the supplemental EIR may be used in obtaining the applicable permit approvals. 1-1 I.

It provides minor technical refinements to the Land Use Plan Map and Land Use District Map to adjust the boundaries of the PA "Professional and Administrative" and OSR "Open Space/Recreation" Districts within the vacated right-of-way of Orchard Drive (west of the Santa Ana -Delhi Channel). It also changes the street cross -sections for Cypress Street, Mesa and Orchard Drives and their descriptive text within Chapter III Community Design Program to agree with the City of Newport Beach's cross -sections. Amendment 89-1 This is the second amendment to the SAHSP. It provides a major change to the alignment of the Birch/Mesa intersection. It also changed Mesa Drive from Irvine Avenue to Birch Street, and Birch Street, from 60 foot right-of-way to a secondary arterial with an 80 foot right-of-way. Acacia Street and Orchard Avenue (in the BP District) from 60 foot to 70 foot right-of-way. Also, that property zoned REO-Residential Equestrian north of the new alignment was changed to BP -Business Park. Other sections of the Specific Plan, including text and graphics, were also revised to reflect these changes. This amendment was previously approved by the City of Newport Beach. wVM:im(COA) 9121216113355 x r Special thanks to the membere of tM Specific Plan ad hoc committeea for their assistance in the preparation of the plan.

These landscape and design, guidelines are intended to provide criteria to assist property owners and architects in designing developments within the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area. The objective of the landscape and design guidelines is to improve, the image of the Specific Plan area and to establish a clear identity for Santa Ana -Heights, A. LANDSCAPE DESIGN. Landscape design in the entire Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area is a crucial element in achieving a dis- tinctive development identity and in blending the new development with the existing character of the surrounding land uses. This character will be reinforced through coordinated design and selection of land- scape and paving materials with emphasis on special features such as entryways and signage. The overall landscape and buffer plan for the specific plan area is illustrated in Exhibit 2. All screening and landscape plans shall be reviewed and approved by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department and the Public Works Department. Standards are specified herein for "screening and landscaping. The City of Newport Beach Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department shall maintain a list of plants for use in the Santa Ana Heights Specific.Plan area which shall also show their required size. This list shall be period- ically reviewed and updated, if necessary, by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department. The plant list shall be available at the Planning Department. B. SANTA ANA HEIGHTS BUSINESS PARK DESIGN GUIDELINES. The new Business Park District is adjacent to a larger single family residential area,. therefore Business Park development, particu- larly that which is adjacent 'to the R-1 areas, should be of, an architectural design that is not incompatible with single-family residential development. Special consideration should be given to design and'building materials for structures adjacent to the ` 4 Page 177 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 residential area. It is intended that the careful use of build- ing mass, structural form, construction materials, streetscape concepts, setbacks, buffers, and landscaping shall result in a unified and coordinated overall design theme in the Business Park area. All development features such as structure design, exteri- or finish, glazing, 'paving materials and associated curbing, planters, walls, fences,- signs, trash areas, lighting, and exterior furniture should blend harmoniously within each develop- ment. The following design guidelines are recommended for the Business Park District: 1. The following exterior wall materials are desirable through- out the business park area. A combination of these mate- rials is encouraged to soften_ and add architectural interest to building facades. a. Wood. b. Brick. C. Rock or quarry stone. d. Architecturally treated concrete, concrete masonry, and block. These materials are to be painted or integrally colored in tones ranging from whites to earth tones. e. Stucco, with a smooth finish in natural gray or colors ranging from whites to earth tones. Accent materials and colors shall be coordinated to achieve a continuity of design with the overall structure and surrounding structures. 2. The use of glass should be subdued and in harmony with.the building and the natural surroundings. Glazing should be used for the purpose of lighting interior space and not as a major architectural element, but may be used as an accent feature to add variety to building facades. 3. Long, uninterrupted exterior walls should be avoided on all buildings. For architectural interest, walls should incor- porate relief features and negative space to create an interesting blend with the landscaping, other buildings, and the casting of shadows. 4. Particular consideration as to color, material, and form should be given to the design and treatment of roofs, roof flashing, rain gutters, downspouts, and vents because' of their potential visual impact. t Page 178 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 20.64.030 RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS, R-1 (8,000), R-1 (19,800), and R-1 (87,120).

Drive shall be planted with the designated street tree thirty feet on .center. All street trees shall be a minimum 24-inch box 'size when installed. Exhibit 8 illustrates the typical, section for Mesa- Drive. Funding for implemen- tation of the streetscape' may be through an assessment district, the Orange County Development Agency,some other future funding source or as redevelopment occurs. 3) Orchard Drive easterly of the Business Park. The' Orchard Drive roadway is designed with two twelve -foot travel" lanes and eight -foot on -street. parking areas on .each side of the street.' A ten -foot planted parkway will be located on the north side of the street. 07) the south side of the street, 'a ten -foot planted parkway will be provided with a meandering four -foot sidewalk. The sidewalk shall be 5-feet wide when adjacent to tha curb. The .ten -foot landscaped parkways shall be. -,planted with the•designated street tree thirty . feet on' center. All 'street• trees shall be 'a minimum 24-inch box' size when installed. Funding for implementation of the streetscape'within the residential area -of Orchard Drive may be through an assessment district, the Orange County Develop- ment Agency, some other future funding source or as redevelopment occurs. 4) Residential entry•treatment. For the residential areas,. entry treatments will be located on Orchard Drive between Birch and Cypress streets ana along Mesa Drive as determined by the Birch Street%Mesa Drive realignment study.' (Exhibit•2) These entries should be identical in design and reflect'a more residential character in landscaping• and signage, clearly delineating to business park users the entrance to a residential neighborhood. (Exhibit 9) • These entries- will - incorporate the following: a) Landscape elements, including accent trees,. shrubs, and groundcover. - b) Entry monumentation. 31 -9) Page 202' SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 c) . Pedestrian crossings and signalization, if appropriate. Care is to be taken in the •design of the entry' statement to provide adequate vehicular sight distance in accordance with City standards. The entry treatment.'will be setback sufficiently -to provide for sidewalks and handicap access ramps. Funding for implementation of the entry treatment may be through an assessment. district, Orange County Development Agency. or some other funding source. The entry treatment shall be maintained by the local community association or adjacent - owner. 2. Circulation Improvements. The area has been heavily impacted by -nonresidential traffic -attempting to avoid congested conditions on surrounding arterials. Thus, a primary consideration in the development of the plan:was reduction of through traffic within residen- tial - areas. The planned development of business park uses. adjacent to residential uses, requires a circulation plan that separates business park 'and residential traffic. Street -improvements and modifications are intended to achieve -these objectives are illustrated in Exhibit 10 and described as follows: Improvement Feature 1: Installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and Orchard Drive. Improvement'Feature 2: Construction of a cul-de-sac on Cypress Street south of South Bristol Street. Implementa- tion of the cul-de-sac will include a design study to determine configuration of Cypress Street north of the cul-de-sac. The cul-de-sac will be designed to allow for access to South Bristol Street from•the northernmost proper- ty on the west side of Cypress Street within the Residential Equestrian District. Improvement Feature 3: Implementation of a circulation improvement test program to study and develop a method to control any. potential through traffic in the Bayview tract. The program's objective shall be development of an optimal solution, one that minimizes -through traffic along, Mesa Drive and'in the Bayview'iract with significantly incon- veniencing a large'number of residents.. The test program methodology' will include -extensive monitoring of traffic before. any -improvements are installed and then systematic monitoring of a variety of test alternatives. Each alterna- tive would involve installation of temporary improvements 31 h .-u Page 203 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 for a period of possibly thirty days.• The alternatives to be tested couid include- 1) a cul-de-sac'at the north end of Orchid Street, 2) the closure of. Spruce Avenue, 3) closure of Spruce Avenue only to traffic exiting the tract, 4) cul-de-sacs at both the north end of Orchid Street and the south end of Bayview Avenue and 5) the closure. of both Spruce and 8ayview Avenues just north of ..Azure Street to northbound traffic in tandem with the Orchid Street cul-de-sac..:Other alternatives might be tested in addition to or in lieu of those mentioned above. The corununity shall be consulted both before and after the program is implement-- ed. Both traffic engineering criteria and community input shall be considered in evaluating the results:of the pro- gram. •Improvement Feature 4: Realignment' of the, intersection at • Mesa Drive and Birch Street, Mesa Drive and Acacia Street,' and other possible alignments to provide a through traffic connection.'. Mesa Drive easterly of Birch. Street'or Acacia Street shall.be.realigned at the•:•intersection to discourage' through traffic and provide a •' residential community' entrance. A precise alignment study and EIR shall be, completed prior to annexation. These circulation improvements are to be implemented in a phased manner *to best achieve the plan's objectives. Implementation of Improvement Features 1'through 3 would be given priority because they are designed to provide'an early reduction' or elimination of through. and business park traffic in residential 'neighborhoods. Improvement Feature 4 would be implemented once warranted by business park devel- opment on Birch Street. Funding possibilities •for these improvements: include the Orange County Development Agency, an. assessment district and/or developer contribution. B. PUBLIC SERVICES/UTILITIES PLAN. The Public Services/Utilities Plan addresses the adequacy of existing water, sewer and drainage facilities to meet existing and ultimate demand and identifies those public works facility, improvements needed to implement the Land Use Plan. The public works improvement's recommended are based- on studies pre- pared by the county which took into account ultimate buildout of the specific plan area, Orange. County fire flow requirbments and other design criteria. City design criteria may differ in some areas which may require modifications before .implementation occurs. The proposed upgrading of facilities is required to eliminate deficiencies -which will be created once 'the Specific Plan is implemented. • Some relo- cation of •facilities is. necessary due to' proposed realignments of street right-of-way. :Specific proposals 'for the improvement and modification of facilities and services are described below. 31 b 1. 2 Page 204 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 Water Distribution System Improvements. The Santa 'Ana Heights Water Company presently provides adequate water service to the specific plan area to serve existing land uses. Ultimate development of the area, however, will require the installation of six-inch and eight -inch water mains and additional fire hydrants for fire protection. Planned improvements ate shown in Exhibit 11 and are described•as follows: improvement Feature 1:. Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line' on Irvine Avenue and Acacia Street from South Bristol Street to Mesa Drive. Improvement Feature 2: Replacement of 6-inch line with S-inch line on Mesa Drive from Acacia Street to Cypress Street. Improvement Feature 3: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Mesa Drive from the intersection with Acacia Street west 500 feet. Improvement Feature 4: Relocation and new installation of four fire hydrants. The water•sy'stem improvements described provide an estimate of new facilities. needed. A comprehensive.water system plan and implementation program must be developed for the area prior to any business.par$ development. Funding :possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development. Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contributions. Sewer System Improvements. The Costa Mesa Sanitation District •(CMSD) presently provides sewer service to the specific plan area. various sewer mains.in the area are currently flowing at -or near capacity. In order.to adequately serve ultimate buildout; installation of 10-inch through 18-inch sewer mains and upgrading of two pump stations in the general area will be required. The following improvements (shown in Exhibit 32) have been identified for construction and/or upgrading. Improvement Feature B: Line �B, located along South Bristol Street, conveys flows from the specific plan area westerly to the 12-inch sewer lines which flow south along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel. This main serves as a major sewer trunkline serving the specific plan area. Line B is pres- ently an 8-inch diameter line; a 15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Page 205 SPECIFIC PIM (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 Improvement Feature C: Line C, located along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel, conveys sewer flows from the western portion 'of Santa Ana Heights and the commercial. center on• Santa Ana Avenue. .An 18-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Improvement Feature.D: Pump Station•11 collects sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights and pumps to Sewer Pump Station 10 (Improvement Feature.E). Pump Station 11 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service :and .remodeling of the existing wet well. Improvement Feature E: Pump Station 10 pumps sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights to.the 24-inch sewer trunkline along Fair Drive (improvement Feature F) which flows into the CMSD treatment facility.- Pump Station 10 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service and remodeling of the. existing wet well. Improvement Feature F: Line F is, d 24-inch• 'trunkline located along .Fair Drive which transports flows. from Pump, Station 10 to the CMSD treatment facility. A .15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. The sewer system -improvements described"•provide an estimate of new facilities needed. A comprehensive sewer system plan and implementation program must be developed for the area prior to any business park development. Funding -.possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contributions. 3. Drainage System Improvements in general, the existing storm runoff collection system within the specific plan area is adequate with the exception. of areas where proposed circulation realignments and modi- fications will alter street drainage patterns. The ultimate land use. -changes and. circulation improvements will require the construction of storm drains :and a system of catch basins. * Backbone improvements to' the existing system are-• shown in Exhibit 13 and are described as follows: improvement Area 1: Catch basins at Orchard Drive and Birch Street Storm drains along Birch Street from Orchard Drive to 41 Page 206 SPECIFIC PLAN , (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 Mesa Drive Catch basin along Birch Street Catch basins at Mesa Drive to drain southerly Storm drain from Mesa Drive to Santa Ana -Delhi channel Improvement Area 2: Storm drain' on Cypress Street from Cypress Street cul-dle-sac to South Bristol Street Catch -basins at Cypress Street cul-de-sac A localized drainage problem exists along Birch. and Cypress streets south of Orchard Drive. In this area, surface runoff flows from parcels fronting on Cypress Street onto parcels along Birch Street. Ponding of water also occurs on, at least one parcel along Birch Street., This drainage situation is a particular concern ,where business park development is planned to occur along Birch Street. Such development must provide for. - the transport of runoff from adjacent residential parcels to the drainage facilities planned along•.Birch Street. The area affected by this ` drainage problem is highlighted in Exhibit 13, the boundary .of which is based on existing topography. In order -to adequately provide for surface runoff in his area, •a comprehensive drainage plan 'and implementation program must be'developed for the area prior to any business park development within the affected area. .Possible drain- age solutions which are being considered'include the follow- ing: An underground storm drain collection system A pumping station. which collects storm runoff and pumps to an acceptable public storm drain system.: Funding possibilities for these improvements include the orange County Development Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contribution. 4. 'Electric, Telephone and Cable Television,Improvements If it is the desire of the community to have utilities undergrounded, this would be accomplished through the Orange County -Development Agency, an assessment district, and/or developer contribution. Although not anticipated, the planned improvements/modifications to the circulation system /P may require abandonments. 5. Street Lights Page 207 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 utility• relocations, realignments or -A street -light system in conformance with City standards will be included with street improvement projects in the business park area'and if requested in the residential area. Funding possibilities for. the street light system include - the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contribution. C. FIRE PROTECTION. Addition of the development in Santa Ana Heights to the City's fire protection responsibilities may require the construction of a fire station. The fire station could be located in or near Santa Ana Heights. Funding possibilities for the fire station include the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contributions.

It has been designated Alginment 2A. The report describes Alignment 2A and how it compares with the other alignments studied. It is our conclusion that Alignment 2A is very similar to Alignment 2. Alignment 2A does have some favorable Land Use benefits and is slightly less expensive than Alginment 2. The Public Works Department concurs with the Planning Commission decision. The staff report for the City Council meeting will not be prepared until July 24, 1989. Until that time the Alignment 2A report can be used to give the public information on the new alignment. 0Don Webb � City Engineer DW:so Attachment cc: Rich Adler, OCEMA June 15, 1989 MESA DRIVE ALIGNMENT STUDY ALIGNMENT NO. 2A At meetings held on April 20, 1989, and May 18, 1989, the City of Newport Beach Planning Commission, reviewed the "Mesa Drive Alignment Study - Supplemental Environment Impact Report 508E (with Technical Appendices)," related staff reports and heard public testimony. The Commission then approved an alignment for the Mesa Drive/Birch Street connection that was between Alignments 1 and 2. It will be called Alignment 2A. The Commission, in adopting Alignment 2A tried to reach a compromise which took advantage of the best features of Alignments 1 and 2. Alignment 2A is roughly midway between 1 and No, 2. It is approximately 95 feet southerly of Alignment 2 in the vicinity of 2041 Mesa Drive. Attached Figures 3C and 3D show the alignment. With respect to traffic and. circulation, noise, air quality, public services and utilities, Alignment 2A has the same impacts as Alignment 2. Moving the roadway southerly into the golf course will allow Alignment 2A to miss the first three residential properties easterly of Acacia Street. In comparison with Alignment 2, it reduces the number of homes taken from 11 to 9. Of these 9 homes two (2041 and 2061 Mesa Drive) are in the residential zone, and the other 7 are in the business park zone. One of the residentially zoned properties has been acquired by the County and the other owner has requested the County to purchase the property. Alignment 2A goes through a portion.of 5 houses. The other 4 affected houses (20401, 30381, 20361 and 20351 Birch Street) will have to be acquired or moved to provide proper sight distance for the roadway curve. A clear setback of 25 to 30 feet from the back of sidewalk is required through most of the curve to provide the needed sight distance. 0 r, a m Alignment 2A will move into the golf course property approximately 90 feet. This encroachment does not affect the golf course playing area if a 20-25 foot high retaining wall is constructed to contain the roadway fill. A crib type wall would provide for landscaping and give an irregular surface which will minimize golf ball deflection. The cost estimate shown for the construction of Alignment 2A includes this wall. Alignment 2A requires less land acquisition than Alignment 1, 2 or 3 and only 2800 square feet more than Alignment 4. When the sale of residential parcels is taken into consideration, Alignment No. 2A has the lowest right-of-way cost. Unless rezoning occurs the four residential parcels easterly of Acacia Street on Mesa Drive will be separated and isolated from other residential areas by the 4 lane roadway. This would also be the case in Alignments 1, 2 and 3. The estimated construction cost of Alignment 2A is $5.23 Million, which is $850,000 more than 2. This is primarily due to the higher cost of the retaining wall, which is estimated to be $576,000. Below is a summary of costs for the various alignments: r ITEM 1 80' R/W Costs Total $7.63M Net 5.35M Relocation Costs '$30,000 Construction Costs 80' R/W $7.70M Total $13.08M R/W plus Construction NOTE: ALIGNMENTNO. 2 4 2A $8.20M $11.93M $6.86M 4.89M 6.:.5M 4.30M $130,000 $150;000 $60,000 $4.38M $5.05M $4.06M $9.40M $11.55M $8.42M $6.93M 3.98M $110,000 $5.23M $9.32M 1. Costs include golf course modifications along Mesa Drive. * Alignment No. 1 cost includes $3 Million for major golf course reconstruction and severance damages. 3 2. The following construction cost items are not included:' a. Add $1A0,000 for Birch/Orchard traffic signal for all alignments. b. Cost to widen Birch Street over the Corona del Mar freeway $1.5 to $2.0 Million. c. Cost for widening Irvine Avenue and West Mesa Drive. Of the four alignments that provide the needed traffic circulation, Alignment 2A has the lowest total cost, with Alignment 2 being a close second. It should also be noted that Alignment 4, although it has the lowest cost, does not provide the necessary traffic circulation. The following table ranks the various alignments studied: RANKING ALIGNMENTS ANALYSIS ITEM 1 2 3 4 2A Engineering Right-of-way costs 3 4 5 1 2 Net Right-of-way costs 4 3 5 2 1 Golf Course Impacts 5 1 3 2 4 Housing 1 4 5 2 3 Construction Cost 5 2 3 1 4 Traffic External Operation 1, 1 1 5 1 Internal Operation 2 1 1 5 1 TOTAL 21 16 23 18 lb 1-best and 5-worst Alignments 2 and 2A have the same final ranking. Alignment 2A has less impact t on the land use than 2 and is also slightly less expensive. The staff concurs with the Planning Commission recommendation and supports the adoption of Alignment 2A as the preferred alignment for the Mesa Drive/Birch Street connection. Don Webb City Engineer Newport Beach V Study Session / Agenda Item No. /O • • • CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER SEPTEMBER 12, 1988 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT SUBJECT: SANTA ANA HEIGHTS ANNEXATION TIMELINE At the Study Session of August 22, 1988, Councilman Turner requested the preparation of a timeline schedule of items related to the annexation of 'Santa Ana Heights. The following narrative and the attached timeline present an overview of the items and the time frame associated with the annexation of Santa Ana Heights. The alignment study for the roadway between Bristol Street and Mesa Drive involving either Acacia or Birch Streets is expected to be ready for public hearings in April 1989. Considering the controversy involved and the need for hearings by both the City and the County, final approval of a recommended alignment probably will not occur until June or July of 1989. Any other amendments to the specific area plan, such as those suggested for Mesa Drive, would require another three to six months because of the required environmental review and public hearings. If the Council wishes to pursue annexation expeditiously, it is strongly recommended that additional amendments be post - poned until after annexation. Upon approval of a selected alignment, the City staff will prepare a complete annexation study including cost/revenue projections. Much of this information has been compiled and requires only up- dating. Consequently, preparation of this report should be completed within one month, at which time the Council can decide whether or not to proceed with annexation. Assuming an affirmative direction from the City Council, staff will prepare a Resolution of Intention and an application to LAFCO. Two time consuming items are required for this application. One is negotiation with the County of Orange regarding the dis- tribution of property taxes and the other is preparation of a SEPTEMBER 12, 1988 • SANTA ANA HEIGHTS ANNEXATION TIMELINE • 0 Page 2 surveyed map and a metes and bounds description. Because of the expense involved, map preparation will be postponed until after Council action. This segment of the process may require sixty to ninety days. Assuming approval of the Resolution of Intention, staff will submit the application to LAFCO, which will require thirty days to review the application and approve it at a public hearing. (LAFCO must approve such island annexations.) Approximately sixty days after LAFCO approval, the City Council must hold a public hearing to hear protests. Depending on the number and type of protests, the annexation either fails, proceeds, or goes to an election. An election of the registered voters within the area to be annexed may be either a special election or combined with other elections. Therefore, the timing of an election ranges between ninety days to more than a year. After final approval of annexation, another thirty to sixty days is required for certification and recording before the annexation is finalized. These time projections are intended to be a best estimate, but are subject to legal challenges and unforseen circumstances.

INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION ' A. Authorization and Purpose ' On February 26, 1985, the Orange County Board of Supervisors approved Reso- lution No. 85-257, which created a new land use plan for the unincorpora- ted community of Santa Ana Heights and directed the Environmental Manage- ment Agency (EMA) to prepare a specific plan for the community. The pur- pose of the specific plan effort was to provide a comprehensive set of plans, guidelines, regulations and implementation programs for guiding and ' ensuring the orderly development of Santa Ana Heights in accordance with the adopted land use plan. ' This document, in conjunction with the Orange County Zoning Code and other applicable ordinances, represents the specific plan for Santa Ana Heights. It has been prepared in accordance with the California Government Code (sections 65450 et seq.) and is consistent with the Board -adopted land use ' plan for the area. Adoption of this specific plan, in effect, repeals the zoning regulations ' previously applicable to properties within the specific plan boundaries and replaces them with a set of land use regulations unique to the area. As ' required by the Government Code, all future development proposed within the specific plan area must be found consistent with the adopted land use regulations. As specified by the Subdivision Map Act, all final or tenta- tive subdivision maps approved within the specific plan area must also be ' consistent with the specific plan. An important function of this specific plan and the accompanying supplemen- tal environmental impact report (EIR) is to reduce the need for extensive planning and environmental documentation related to subsequent development of the area. For development projects that are designed consistent with the specific plan provisions, the environmental documentation in the supplemental EIR may be used in obtaining the applicable permit approvals. I-1 II B. Goals and Objectives The overall goal of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan is to provide for the orderly and balanced development of the community consistent with the Board -adopted land use plan. In carrying out this goal, the principal objectives are the following: Encourage the upgrading of existing residential neighborhoods. Ensure well planned business park developments which are adequately buffered from adjacent residential neighborhoods. Encourage the consolidation of smaller contiguous lots in the business park area. Ensure that business park and residential traffic is separated to the maximum extent possible, white minimizing impact upon existing parcels. Ensure adequate provision of public works facilities as development occurs. Enhance equestrian opportunities within the residential equestrian neighborhood. Enhance the overall aesthetic character of the community. These goals and objectives have guided the preparation of this Specific Plan and are incorporated into the various components of the plan. C. Description of Planning Area The Santa Ana Heights community consists of approximately 450 acres of unincorporated territory, located just south of John Wayne Airport in Orange County (Exhibit 1). In an effort to simplify the preparation of a specific plan for the community, most properties with zoning already consistent with the Board -adopted land use plan were not included within the specific plan area. The resulting study area covers approximately 175 acres and is generally bounded by South Bristol Street to the north, Mesa Drive to the south, Santa Ana Avenue to the west and residential property lines along Cypress Street to the east (Exhibit 2). 1 1 1 I-2 II 30 W HITTIER I, LOS ANGELES COUNTY SANTA ANA SAN BERN'ARDINO COUNTY ORANGE COUNTY ' IRVINE SANTA AN HEIGHTS ' SPECIFIC PLAN AREA NEWPORT BEACH ' LAGMA BEACH ' DANA POINT ' SAN CLEMENTE REGIONAL LOCATION i, SANTA ANA HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN d-3 10 60 RIVERSIDE COUNTY E LSINORE SAN DIEGO COUNTY ml EXHIBIT 1 LOCAL VICINITY SANTA ANA HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN 1-4 I LIGHTS 1 AREA EXHIBIT 1 ' 1.

Existing uses in the eastern section of the ' specific plan area (east of Irvine Avenue) are predominantly residential, the lot pattern of which is heavily influenced by the ' community's historic ties to small plot agricultural activities. Parcels along Acacia, Birch and Cypress streets are predominantly one- half acre in size and consist of single family residences and multiple family units, along with equestrian stables, nurseries and other small ' businesses. Land uses along South Bristol Street include a mix of office, commercial and residential uses. Residential uses, including a 52-unit apartment complex, predominate along Birch Street between South ' Bristol Street and Orchard Drive; however, an office building has recently been constructed on a two -acre site on the west side of the ' street. Existing uses within the western portion of the specific plan area ' (west of Irvine Avenue) consist of a mixture of residential, commercial ' and recreational uses, including the Newport Beach Golf Course, a small Santa Ana Avenue, commercial center on the corner of Bristol Street and a number of apartment complexes ranging in size from 32 to 180 units, ' single family homes, nurseries, kennels and a veterinary clinic. The Riverside Drive cul-de-sac, located off of Orchard Drive, contains a ' small single family subdivision where a majority of residents currently operate dog kennels. Also located off of Orchard Drive is a private ' cul-de-sac, Kline Drive, containing a broad mix of land uses including single family homes, a horticultural nursery and vacant parcels used ' for vehicle storage purposes. Lange Drive, which is located off of Mesa Drive, includes single family homes, some of which are in a deteriorated state, and vacant parcels used for storage purposes. Also ' located within this portion of Santa Ana Heights is the Sherwood Estates tract (commonly referred to as the Pegasus tract), an 88-unit, ' single family subdivision constructed in the mid-1960's. The majority of these homes are well maintained. I-5 The Santa Ana -Delhi Flood Control Channel also traverses the specific plan area in a north to south direction. Exhibit 3 illustrates the location of existing land uses within the specific plan area. 2, Land Uses Surrounding Specific Plan Area The City of Newport Beach surrounds the eastern portion of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area. Along Irvine Avenue, between South Bristol Street and Orchard Drive, is a strip of office buildings, commercial businesses and several small homes within the City boundaries. Also within the City is the Corona del Mar Freeway (SR- 73), the recently approved Bayview Planned Development consisting of residential, office and hotel uses (under construction) and the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve to the north, east and south of the specific plan area, respectively. That portion of the Newport Beach Golf Course within the City also lies to the south of the study area. The City of Costa Mesa forms the northern boundary of the specific plan area along Bristol Street near Santa Ana Avenue. Existing uses include a new hotel and vacant land. Unincorporated land surrounding the study area consists of the existing Bayview and Upper Bay residential tracts and multi -acre estates to the east and south, and a wide variety of residential uses as well as the Santa Ana Country Club to the west. Exhibit 4 illustrates the location of land uses surrounding the specific plan area. D. Planning Background Land use planning in the Santa Ana Heights area has been closely associated with the preparation of a master plan for John Wayne Airport (JWA). In February 19850 after several years of study and public meetings, the Orange County Board of Supervisors adopted a master plan for the airport and a Land Use Compatibility Program (LUCP) for the Santa Ana Heights area, A comprehensive environmental impact report (Final EIR 508) that addressed both plans was also certified at that time. 1-5 ------- ---` SOUTH BRISTOL '—" j STREET ----- I f z (. ! ::.�.. ..... �.

The Board -approved LUCP provides for the retention of all noise compatible land uses, such as open space, commercial and office uses. Other uses more sensitive to noise, such as ' residences, were also retained, except along Acacia and Birch streets where pressures for land use change were great. In order to meet state airport ' noise requirements in areas where residential uses were planned to remain, the Board approved two noise compatibility programs: Purchase Assurance and Acoustical Insulation. In areas where residential uses were planned to be eliminated, the Board adopted amendments to the General Plan Land Use Element and Community Profile providing for land use conversion to business ' park uses. Basic land use patterns for the area were thus established, but land use regulations were not adopted. In order to establish land use ' regulations and other implementation programs tailored to the unique needs of Santa Ana Heights, the Board directed that both a redevelopment plan and ' specific plan be developed for the community. The Board adopted a Redevelopment Plan for the Santa Ana Heights Project ' Area on July 15, 1986. The Project Area encompasses most of Santa Ana Heights, including all of the specific plan area, as well as John Wayne ' Airport and the proposed Upper Newport Bay Regional Park. The Redevelopment Plan allows the use of tax increment financing by the Orange County Development Agency. Tax increment financing enables the Agency to recapture property tax revenue from the Project Area to provide needed improvements within the area. The Redevelopment Plan is expected to serve as a useful tool to help finance the various projects being undertaken in ' the Santa Ana Heights area. These projects include the Purchase Assurance and Acoustical Insulation programs, circulation, recreation -and public facility improvements in the area and neighborhood revitalization programs. ' In addition to this introduction, the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan ' consists of three chapters. Chapter II presents the following plan components: Land Use, Circulation, Public Services/Utilities and Recreation. I-9 I Chapter III provides the architectural and landscape guidelines and ' Chapter IV presents the land use district regulations to be applied to all , development within the specific plan area. 1 r i F I PP56-1 I-10 6274 THE PLAN A. Land Use Plan The Board -adopted Land Use Plan for Santa Ana Heights reflects present and future physical, market and environmental conditions and existing land use patterns. Within the specific plan area, the Land Use Plan calls for a variety of uses, including low-rise office development, commercial uses, recreational facilities and varying densities of residential uses (most of which currently exist). Exhibit 5 depicts the adopted Land Use Plan for the specific plan area and details the general type, location and intensity of development proposed. The following land use categories identified for the area correspond with the designations used in the Community Profile Component of the County's Advance Planning Program. Low Density Residential (0.5-2.0 DU/Ac) The general character of the "Low Density Residential" category is single family, large -lot estates within a semi -rural environment. This designation applies to property located south of Mesa Drive. Medium Low Density Residential (2.0-3.5 DU/Ac) The "Medium Low Density Residential" category provides for single family, large -lot residential uses with ancillary equestrian facilities. This category is also designed for the maintenance of commercial equestrian stable facilities. This designation applies to properties located along Cypress Street and along the north side of Mesa Drive between Acacia Street and the Upper Bay tract. RESIDENTIAL ACiRRICULTURI {Includes Low.Medium Low, Medium,��' Medium High, and High Density) [T -j RECREATION COMMUNITY COMMERICAL PROFESSIONAL -ADMINISTRATIVE LAND USE PLAN (COMMUNITY PROFILE) SANTA ANA HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN 0 n .. EXHBIT 5 I II I n u LJ It 1- I I !J it 5 Medium Density Residential (3.5-6.5 DU/Ac) The general character of the "Medium Density Residential" category is single family detached dwelling units, although townhouses or cluster arrangements are permitted. Dog kennels and horticultural nurseries are also permitted uses under this category. Much of the western portion of the specific plan area is designated as "Medium Density Residential," including the Pegasus tract, the Riverside Drive cul-de- sac located off of Orchard Drive and the private cul-de-sac, Kline Drive, located off of Orchard Drive. Medium High Density Residential (6.5-18.0 DU/Ac) The "Medium High Density Residential" category is designed to encourage and maintain greater densities of residential development. This designation provides for townhomes, condominiums, duplex and triplex units, apartments, and some small -lot, single family units. This category covers the duplex and apartment uses on the south side of Orchard Drive near Santa Ana Avenue and the apartments on Santa Ana Avenue just west of the Pegasus tract. Lange Drive, a private street located off of Mesa Drive, also reflects this land use category. High Density Residential (18.0+ DU/Ac) The "High Density Residential" category provides for higher density multiple family residential development, including apartments and small -lot duplex, triplex and fourplex units. The two existing apartment complexes located along Mesa Drive between Santa Ana Avenue and Irvine Avenue are included in this category. Community Commercial The "Community Commercial" category is designed to encourage commercial centers for retail trade, convenience goods, services and professional office uses. Much of the property along South Bristol Street, including the small commercial center located at Santa Ana Avenue, is designated "Community Commercial." II-3 Professional -Administrative The "Professional -Administrative" category provides for the development and/or continued use of low -profile "business park" type professional and administrative offices. A relatively narrow range of commercial uses will be permitted in order to serve the immediate needs of surrounding office tenants. Design standards and regulations providing for structural setbacks and landscaped buffers will ensure that the potential for land use conflicts is minimal. This designation is applied primarily to properties along Acacia and Birch streets in the eastern portion of Santa Ana Heights. Agriculture The "Agriculture" category provides for a wide range of horticultural uses and applies to two properties located on the south side of Orchard Drive in the western section of Santa Ana Heights. This designation will permit the continued operation of a commercial nursery on these properties. Recreation The "Recreation" category includes lands intended to serve the outdoor recreational needs of the area and region. Within the specific plan area, this designation applies to the Newport Beach Golf Course. Provisions contained within this specific plan ensure the long-term maintenance of the golf course as a public recreational facility. U -4 I 1 1 1 1 B. Circulation Plan The Circulation Plan is designed to provide for safe vehicular, equestrian and pedestrian movement within and adjacent to the specific plan area. The area has been heavily impacted by nonresidential traffic attempting to avoid congested conditions on surrounding arterials. Thus, a primary consideration in the development of the plan was reduction of through traffic within residential areas. With the planned development of business park uses within areas adjacent to residential uses, another consideration was the separation of business park and residential traffic. Street improvements and modifications intended to achieve these objectives are illustrated in Exhibit 6 and described as follows: Improvement Feature 1: Installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and Orchard Drive. Improvement Feature 2: Construction of a cul-de-sac on Birch Street between Orchard Drive and Mesa Drive and vacation of remaining right- of-way (access to the most southerly Business Park parcels from Mesa Drive may be maintained via easement if property owners wish to stay in their homes and take access from Mesa Drive). ' Improvement Feature 3: Construction of a cul-de-sac on Cypress Street south of South Bristol Street. Implementation of the cul-de-sac will ' include a design study to determine configuration of Cypress Street north of the cul-de-sac. The cul-de-sac will be designed to allow for ' access to South Bristol Street from the northernmost property on the west side of Cypress Street within the Residential Equestrian District. ' Improvement Feature 4: Implementation of a circulation improvement test program to study and develop a method to control any potential through traffic in the Bayview tract. The program's objective would be development of an optimal solution, one that minimizes through traffic ' along Mesa Drive and in the Bayview tract without significantly inconveniencing a large number of residents.

II u I I I C I methodology will include extensive monitoring of traffic before any improvements are installed and then systematic monitoring of a variety of test alternatives. Each alternative would involve installation of temporary improvements for a period of possibly thirty days. The alternatives to be tested could include: 1) a cul-de-sac at the north end of Orchid Street, 2) the closure of Spruce Avenue, 3) closure of Spruce Avenue only to traffic exiting the tract, 4) cul-de-sacs at both the north end of Orchid Street and the south end of Bayview Avenue and 5) the closure of both Spruce and Bayview Avenues just north of Azure Street to northbound traffic in tandem with the Orchid Street cul-de- sac. Other alternatives might be tested in addition to or in lieu of those mentioned above. The community would be consulted both before and after the program is implemented. Both traffic engineering criteria and community input would be considered in evaluating the results of the program. Improvement Feature 5: Realignment of the intersection at Mesa Drive and Acacia Street. Improvement Feature 6: Construction of a cul-de-sac at the eastern end of Orchard Drive within the western portion of Santa Ana Heights and vacation of remaining right-of-way. These circulation improvements are to be implemented in a phased manner to best achieve the plan's objectives. Implementation of Improvement Features 1 through 4 would be given priority because they are designed to provide an early reduction or elimination of through and business park traffic in residential neighborhoods. Improvement Feature 5 would be implemented once warranted by business park development on Acacia and Birch streets. Improvement Feature 6 would be implemented in conjunction with development of office uses on the adjacent parcels. Funding possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district or developer contribution. J II-7 C. Public Services/Utilities Plan The Public Services/Utilities Plan addresses the adequacy of existing water, sewer and drainage facilities to meet existing and ultimate demand and identifies those public works facility improvements needed to implement the Land Use Plan. The public works improvements recommended are based on a computer analysis which took into account ultimate buildout of the specific plan area, Orange County fire flow requirements and other design criteria. The proposed upgrading of facilities is required to eliminate deficiencies which will be created once the Specific Plan is implemented. Some relocation of facilities is necessary due to proposed realignments of street rights -of - way. Specific proposals for the improvement and modification of facilities and services are described below. 1. Water Distribution System Improvements The Santa Ana Heights Water Company presently provides adequate water service to the specific plan area to serve existing land uses. Ultimate development of the area, however, will require 7,400 linear feet of six-inch and eight -inch water mains and additional fire hydrants for fire protection. Planned improvements are shown in Exhibit 7 and are described as follows: Improvement Feature 1: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Irvine Avenue and Acacia Street from South Bristol Street to Mesa Drive, Improvement Feature 2: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch tine on Mesa Drive from Acacia Street to Cypress Street. Improvement Feature 3: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Mesa Drive from the intersection with Acacia Street west 500 feet.

Improvement Feature 6: Relocation and new installation of seven fire hydrants. Improvement Feature 7: Replacement of 4-inch line with 6-inch line from Orchard Drive south along Riverside Drive. Improvement Feature 8: Replacement of 4-inch line with 6-inch line along Kline Drive from Orchard Drive to 700 feet south. 2. Sewer System Improvements The Costa Mesa Sanitation District (CMSD) presently provides sewer service to the specific plan area. Various sewer mains in the area are currently flowing at or near capacity. In order to adequately serve ultimate buildout, installation of 8,215 linear feet of 10-inch through 18-inch sewer mains and upgrading of two pump stations in the general area will be required. The following improvements (shown in Exhibit 8) have been identified for construction and/or upgrading. Improvement Feature A: Line A, located on the north side of the Santa Ana -Delhi channel, conveys sewer flows from Bristol Street east to Santa Ana Avenue and then continues south along the channel. This main does not convey sewer flows from the specific plan area. Line A is presently 8 inches in diameter and will be expanded to a 10-inch line.

This main serves as a major sewer trunktine serving the specific plan area. Line B is presently an 8-inch diameter line; a 15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Improvement Feature C: Line C, located along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel, conveys sewer flows from the western portion of Santa Ana Heights and the commercial center on Santa Ana Avenue. An 18-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Improvement Feature D: Pump Station 11 collects sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights and pumps to Sewer pump Station 10 (Improvement Feature E). Pump Station 11 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service and remodeling of the existing wet well. Improvement Feature E: Pump Station 10 pumps sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights to the 24-inch sewer trunkline along Fair Drive (Improvement Feature F) which flows into the CMSD treatment facility. Pump Station 10 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service and remodeling of the existing wet well. Improvement Feature F: Line F is a 24-inch trunktine located along Fair Drive which transports flows from Pump Station 10 to the CMSD treatment facility. A 15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. 3. Drainage System Improvements In general, the existing storm runoff collection system within the specific plan area is adequate with the exception of areas where pro- posed circulation realignments and modifications will alter street II-12 Idrainage patterns. The ultimate land use changes and circulation improvements will require the construction of 2,550 linear feet of 30- inch reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) mains and a system of catch basins. ' Improvements to the existing system are shown in Exhibit 9 and are described as follows: ' Improvement Area 1: ' One 14-foot catch basin at Orchard Drive and Birch Street 30-inch RCP along Birch Street from Orchard Drive to Mesa Drive ' One 14-foot catch basin at Birch Street cul-de-sac One 7-foot catch basin at Mesa Drive to drain southerly ' 30-inch RCP from Mesa Drive to Santa Ana -Delhi channel ' Improvement Area 2: 30-inch RCP on Cypress Street from Cypress Street cul-de-sac to South Bristol Street Two 14-foot catch basins at Cypress Street cul-de-sac ' Improvement Area 3: ' One 14-foot catch basin at Orchard Drive cul-de-sac 18-inch RCP from Orchard Drive cul-de-sac to Santa Ana -Delhi 1 channel ' A localized drainage problem exists along Birch and Cypress streets south of Orchard Drive. In this area, surface runoff flows from ' parcels fronting on Cypress Street onto parcels along Birch Street. Ponding of water also occurs on at least one parcel along Birch Street. ' This drainage situation is a particular concern where business park development is planned to occur along Birch Street. Such development must provide for the transport of runoff from adjacent residential parcels to the drainage facilities planned along Birch Street.

Possible drainage solutions which are being considered include the following: An underground storm drain collection system A pumping station which collects storm runoff and pumps to an acceptable public storm drain system Funding possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development Agency, an assessment district or developer contribution. 4. Electric, Telephone and Cable Television Improvements Although not anticipated, the planned improvements/modifications to the circulation system may require utility relocations, realignments or abandonments. 0. Recreation Plan The Recreation Plan is designed to enhance equestrian opportunities within the specific plan area with appropriate connections between local and regional trail systems. Exhibit 10 identifies those recreational facilities planned within and adjacent to the specific plan area. Elements of the Recreation Plan are as follows; A local equestrian trail is planned along the west side of Cypress Street from the north end of the street to Mesa Drive, then west along the south side of Mesa Drive to its intersection with Birch Street. The trail then continues south to connect with the proposed regional trails along Upper Newport Bay and the Santa Ana -Delhi channel. This local equestrian trail is also planned to extend east along Mesa Drive from Cypress Street to the proposed Upper Newport Bay regional trail. Acquisition of an appropriate site for development of a public equestrian center will be studied. Facilities within a center may include box stalls and pipe corrals, arenas, horse rental facilities, parking and staging areas, and other related support facilities, including an office and storage rooms. If a site is acquired by the County, the property would be developed and maintained by a private stable operator under a lease agreement with the County. Regional recreation facilities, either existing or proposed within the general area, include two existing golf courses, the Newport Beach Golf Course and Santa Ana Country Club; a proposed riding and hiking trail through Upper Newport Bay, linking the existing trail along San Diego Creek with the proposed trail along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel; an existing bikeway along Irvine Avenue south of University Drive, and proposed bikeways along Santa Ana Avenue, University Drive and through Upper Newport Bay. The County's Upper Newport Bay Regional Park is proposed to include the area covered by the Newport Beach Golf Course as well as land adjacent II-16 •��• REGIONAL BIKEWAY 000o PROPOSED REGIONAL BIKEWAY PROPOSED LOCAL EQUESTRIAN TRAIL RECREATION PLAN SANTA ANA HEIGHTS SPECIFIC PLAN Vn-nn--n-nl PROPOSED REGIONAL RIDING AND HIKING TRAIL GOLF COURSE PROPOSED COUNTY REGIONAL PARK EXHIBIT 10 i to the State Ecological Reserve.

Introduction ' The intent of the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan design guidelines is to promote a consistent, high quality character of development that will ' result in the overall enhancement of the aesthetic character of the community. Use of these guidelines in future project approvals will advance these objectives] through the careful Juse of building forms and ' materials, streetscape concepts, setback and buffer areas and atunifying ) landscape concept. Combined, these elements will provide a sense of identity to the specific plan area and development which will complement existing and surrounding land uses. Consolidation of single lots within the business park area of Santa Ana ' Heights can provide for more flexibility-f)in the design of office development, thereby enhancing the aesthetic character and cohesiveness of the development. Lot consolidation is encouraged within the business park area through the• inherent benefits obtained when developing on larger, consolidated parcels (e.g., the ability to dissolve setbacks along interior ' lot lines and to design more efficiency into parking areas). B. Architectural Guidelines for Business Park Uses Due to the proximity of the areas designated for business park uses to residential uses, it is the stated objective of the County to provide ' architectural guidelines for business park uses which will blend in with and complement the residential areas of the community. In order to achieve ' that goal, the following guidelines will be of prime importance in the consideration of future development proposals. 1. Building Massing/Form Buildinq facades abutting streets shall not have the appearance of excessive massing or shading. The use of grading techniques and III-1 grade changes should be considered in order to minimize mass and bulk of buildings. A Special consideration shall be qiven architecturally to emphasize pedestrian areas such as entryways, walkways, and courtyards/plazas (e.g., trellises, 1ow parapet walls, extended roof or patio overhangs). Buildings clustered around a pedestrian area, such as a " courtyard/plaza, shall be designed to minimize excessive shading and maximize light exposure. Long, uninterrupted exterior walls shall be avoided on all buildings. For architectural interest, walls shall incorporate relief features and negative space to create an interesting blend with the landscaping, other buildings and the casting of shadows. Incorporation of small-scale elements such as planters, installation of mature landscaping and landform manipulation will aid in softening the overall mass of structures. Particular consideration as to color, material, and form shall be given to the design and treatment of roofs. because of their potential visual impact. Roof flashing, rain gutters, downspouts and vents shall be treated to match materials and/or colors of the overall building. All roof equipment shalt—bt screened with materials/colors consistent with the treatment of the building, i 1 Utilization of windows shall be encouraged in order to extend i interior space to the outside and to create a visual connection with the exterior setting of courtyard or plaza areas. 1 Walls and/or fences shall be used to screen utility and maintenance structures/facilities and storage areas. These surfaces shall III_2 match or be in .harmony with the exterior finish of any structure with which they are in contact. Radical theme structures, signage, building and roof forms shall be discouraged. 2. Exterior Building Materials 3 The following -s 1-1—be—used-_as_.pr_edomi-nant- exterior wall materials throughout the business park area. A combination of these materials is encouraqed to soften and add architectural interest to building facades. Wood. Bri ck,.J Architecturally treated concrete, concrete masonry, and block. These materials are to be painted or integrally colored in tones ranqing from whites to earth tones. Stucco, with a smooth finish in natural gray or colors ranging from whites to earth tones. Accent materials and colors shall be coordinated to achieve a continuity of design with the overall structure and surrounding structures. 3. Glazing The use of glass-shai'f be subdued and in harmony with the building and the natural surroundings. Glazing to bg used Pr-edem+ftate'Yq,�ry r^ for the purpose of lighting interior space.--G+a-ernV-s15"a 1 not bcy' .used as a major architectural element, but may be used as an accent feature to add variety to building facades. M•i-r-r-ored-gl-a-zi-ng-shall ,not -be --used^ III-3 4. Building Entrances Site access, entrance drives and building entries shall be readily observable and inviting to the first-time visitor, Care shall be taken to provide minimum conflict between service vehicles, private automobiles, and pedestrians. Building entries shall be integrated with overall building form and should be highlighted by such features as: - entry porte-cocheres plazas special planters and plantings - textured hardscape S. Building Rooflines Roofs may be sloped, in a hip, qable, or shed fashion. Flat roofs are permissible. Wood, shingle, shake and tile roofs are encouraged and must meet Building and Fire Code requirements. Reflective metal roofing material is prohibited. Asphalt and fiberglass materials are permitted only on flat roofs where screened from view. In all cases, roof -mounted mechanical equipment shall be screened from view with materials finished to match materials and colors in the roof and building. 6. Energy Considerations Passive solar design orientation is encouraged. Solar collectors, if used, shall be oriented away from public view or designed as an Integral element of the roof structure. III-4 L 7. Sound Attenuation All interior building areas shall be mitigated for noise, consistent with the Orange County Noise Element. C. Landscape Guidelines Landscape design is a crucial element in achieving a distinctive development character and in blending the development with the existing character of surrounding land uses. This character will be reinforced ' through the coordinated design and selection of landscape and paving materials and emphasis on special features such as entryways and signage. ' The overall landscape and buffer plan for the specific plan area is illustrated in Exhibit 11. Guidelines are specified herein for the following landscape components of the plan: Streetscape ' Entry treatment Buffer design ' Parking lot design Hardscape and street furniture design ' Landscape maintenance 1. Streetscape 1 Business Park Streetscape - Acacia and Birch Streets ' The Acacia and Birch Street roadways are each designed with two eleven - foot and two thirteen -foot travel lanes and a six-foot walkway on either side. Adjacent to the walkways, outside the right-of-way, a ten -foot landscaped setback is required (Exhibit 12). The streetscape for the business park area will be installed by individual property ' owners concurrent with development of approved projects.

These landscape and design. guidelines are intended to provide criteria to assist property owners and architects in designing developments within the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area. The objective of the landscape and design guidelines is to improve the image of the Specific Plan area and to establish a clear identity for Santa Ana Heights. A. LANDSCAPE DESIGN. Landscape design in the entire Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area is a crucial element in achieving a dis- tinctive development identity and in blending the new development with the existing character of the surrounding land uses. This character will be reinforced through coordinated design and selection of land- scape and paving materials with emphasis on special features such as entryways and signage. The overall landscape and buffer plan for the specific plan area is illustrated in Exhibit 2. All screening and landscape plans shall be reviewed and approved by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department and the Public Works Department. Standards are specified herein for 'screening and landscaping. The City of Newport Beach Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department shall maintain a list of piants for use in the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan area which shall also show their required size. This list shall be period- ically reviewed and updated, if necessary, by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department. The plant list. shall be available at the Planning Department. B. SANTA ANA HEIGHTS BUSINESS PARK DESIGN GUIDELINES. The new Bdsiness- Park District is adjacent to a larger single family residential area,,thereore Business Park development, particu- larly that which is adjacent 'to the R-1 areas, should be of an architectural design that is not incompatible with single-family residential development. Special consideration should be given to design and building materials for structures adjacent to the 1 Page 177 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 residential area. It is intended that the careful use of build- ing mass, structural form, construction materials, streetscape concepts, setbacks, buffers, and landscaping shall result in a unified and coordinated overall design theme in the Business Park area. All development features such as structure design, exteri- or finish, glazing, paving materials and associated curbing, planters, walls, fences,- signs, trash areas, lighting, and, exterior furniture should blend harmoniously within each develop- ment. The following design guidelines are recommended for the Business Park District: 1. The following exterior wall materials are desirable through- out the business park area. A combination of these mate- rials is encouraged to soften and add architectural interest to building facades. a. wood. b. Brick. C. Rock or quarry stone. d.

In addition to up -grading these improve- ments, the .following are public improvements -needed within the Santa Ana Heights' Specific Plan area. As, redevelopment occurs or as the desire for these improvements arises, they are to be constructed or installed. Funding possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development Agency, an ,assessment district and/or developer and resident contributions. A. CIRCULATION PLAN. The Circulation Plan is designed to provide for safe vehicular, equestrian and pedestrian movement within and adjacent to the Specific Plan area. The established sidewalk stan- dards are also intended to encourage pedestrian use. Street sections to provide sufficient capacity for the added business park traffic and traffic from the residential areas are as follows: 1. • Street Sections and Streetscape:; a. Business Park: 1) Birch Street and Mesa Drive from Birch Street westerly to Irvine Avenue. The Birch Street and the Mesa Drive westerly con- nections to Irvine Avenue are each designed to be secondary industrial 'collectors with two 'elev- en -foot and irwo sixteen -foot travel lanes, and a ten -foot two-way left turn lane, and a eight -foot walkway on either side. Adjacent to the. walkways, ,34 Page 199 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 outside the right-of-way, a ten -foot landscaped setback is required. (Exhibit 5) The streetscape for the business park area is a requirement of development and shall be installed by individual property owners concurrent with development of approved projects. Ongoing maintenance shall be the responsibility of individual property owners. 2) Acacia Street and Orchard Drive within Business Park. The Acacia Street and Orchard Drive roadways within the Business Park shall be constructed with two twelve -foot and two seventeen -foot travel lanes and a six-foot walkway on either side. Adjacent • to the walkways, outside the right-of-way,- a ten -foot landscaped setback is required.' (Exhibit 6) The Streetscape for the business park area is a requirement of development and shall be installed by individual property owners concurrent with development of approved projects. Ongoing maintenance will be the respon- sibility of individual -property owners. 3) Business Park entry treatment. The primiry purpose of entry treatment is the announcement of entry into the specific plan area. For the business park area, special entry treat- )ment will, be located at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and Orchard Drive -and on Birch Street just south of. the South Bristol Street intersection. (Exhibit 2) The- two entry statements .shall be identical in design in order to reinforce project continuity and identification. (Exhibit 7) These entries will include the following: a) Landscape .elements, including accent trees, shrubs, -and groundcover. b) Entry monumentation. c) Pedestrian crossings and signalization, if appropriate. Building; materials used for the entry monumentation shall be harmonious with the overall Business Park design. Care -is -to be taken in the :design of the the entry statement to provide adequate; vehicular sight distance in accordance with City standards. The entry treatment will be 3S Page 200 SPECIFIC PLAN. _ -(Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 setback sufficiently to provide for sidewalks and handicap•access ramps. Funding for implementation of the entry treatment may be through an assess- ment district,, Orange County. Development Agency, or some other funding source._ The entry treatment s}iall be maintained' by the local business asso- ciation or adjacent property owner. b. Residential Areas: 1) Cypress Street. The Cypress Street roadway is designed with two twelve -foot travel lanes, eight -foot on -street parking areas on each side of the street and, on the east side' of the street, a five-foot wide sidewalk. On the west side. of the street, a three-foot planted parkway will be located adja- cent to the curb along with a twelve -foot -wide equestrian trail. (Exhibit 8) The four foot wide landscaped area located. adjacent to the sidewalk within the front yard setback area on the east side of Cypress Street shall be planted with the designated street tree, thirty feet on, center. All street trees shall be a minimum 24-inch* box size when installed. Funding for .implementation of the streetscape along Cypress Street may be through an assessment district, the orange County Development Agency, some other future funding source or as redevelopment occurs. The surface of the equestrian trail shall be one of the following: a) Compacted decomposed granite. b) Existing soil, graded and compacted. A. three and one -half -foot high- split rail fence shall be installed. on either side of the equestrian trail. The fence is .to be maintained by the. local equestrian groups and shall be removed if not properly maintained. 2). Mesa Drive easterly"of Birch Street. The Mesa Drive roadway is, planned with the same design features as. Cypress• - Street, with an equestrian trail on the south: side of the street and a pedestrian sidewalk on the north side.. Mesa Drive shall not extend beyond the Specific Plan J �` Page 201 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) 'Chapter 20.64 area except as needed to cul-de-sac the easterly end of Mesa Drive. The four foot.wide landscaped area located adjacent to the sidewalk within the front yard setback area on the north side of Mesa' Drive shall be planted with the designated street tree thirty feet on .center. All street trees shall be a minimum 24-inch box .'size when - installed. Exhibit 8 illustrates the typical• section for Mesa- Drive. Funding for implemen- tation of the streetscape' may be through an assessment district, the Orange County bevelopment Agency,some other future funding source or as redevelopment occurs. 3) Orchard Drive easterly of the Business Paik. The' Orchard Drive roadway is designed with two twelve -foot travel' lanes and eight -foot on -street, parking areas on .each side of the street. A ten -foot planted parkway will be located on the north side of the street. On the south side of the street, 'a ten -foot planted parkway will be provided with a meandering four -foot sidewalk. The sidewalk shall be 5-feet wide when adjacent to the curb. The .ten-foot•landscaped parkways shall be. -planted with the designated street tree thirty' feet on center. All 'street• trees shall be 'a - minimum 24-inch box' size when installed. Funding for implementation of the streetscape'within the residential area of Orchard Drive may be through an assessment district, the Orange County Develop- ment Agency, some other future funding source or as redevelopment occurs. . 4) Residential entry treatment. For the residential areas,, entry treatments will be located on Orchard Drive between Birch and Cypress streets ana along Mesa Drive as determined by the Birch Street%Mesa Drive realignmen£ study.' (Exhibit,2) These entries should be identical in design and reflect'a more residential character in landscaping and signage, clearly delineating to business park users the entrance to a residential neighborhood. (Exhibit 9) . These entries- will incorporate the following:. a) Landscape elements, including accent trees,. shrubs, and g;oundeover. b) Entry monumentation. 31 Page 202' SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 c) . Pedestrian crossings and signalization, if appropriate. Care is to be taken in the •.design of the " entry, statement to provide adequate vehicular sight distance in accordance with City standards. The entry treatment•'will be setback sufficiently -to provide for sidewalks and handicap access ramps. Funding for implementation of the entry treatment may be through an assessment district, Orange County Development Agency: or some other funding source. The entry treatment shall be maintained by the local community association or adjacent' owner. 2. Circulation Improvements. The area has been heavily impacted by -nonresidential traffic attempting to avoid congested conditions on surrounding arterials. Thus, a primary consideration in the development of the plan:was reduction of through traffic within residen- tial .areas. The planned development of business park uses - adjacent to residential uses, requires a circulation plan that separates business park 'and, residential traffic. Street -improvements and modifications are intended to - achieve -these objectives are illustrated in Exhibit 10 and described as follows: Improvement Feature 1: Installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Irvine Avenue and Orchard Drive. Improvement"Feature 2: Construction .of a cul-de-sac on Cypress Street south of South Bristol Street. Implementa- tion of the cul-de-sac will include a design study to determine configuration of Cypress Street north of the cul-de-sac. The cul-de-sac will be designed to allow for access to South Bristol Street from.the northernmost proper- ty on the west side of Cypress Street within the Residential Equestrian District. Improvement Feature 3: Implementation of a circulation improvement test program to study and develop a method to control any. potential through traffic in the Bayview tract. The program's objective shall be development of an optimal solution, one that minimizes -through traffic along. Mesa. Drive and in the Bayview'tract without significantly incon- venienaing a large -number df residents. The test program methodology' will include -extensive monitoring of traffic before, any improvements are installed and then systematic monitoring of a variety of test alternatives. Each alterna- tive would involve installation of temporary improvements 31 Page 203 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 for a period .of possibly thirty days. The alternatives to be tested could include: 1) a cul-de-sac at the north end of Orchid Street, 2) the closure of Spruce Avenue, 3) closure of Spruce Avenue•only to traffic exiiing the tract, 4) cul-de-sacs at both the north end of Orchid Street and the south end of Bayview Avenue and 5) the closure of both Spruce and Bayview Avenues just north of .,Azure Street to northbound traffic in tandem with the Orchid Street cul-de-sac..'Other alternatives might be tested in addition to or in lieu of those mentioned above. The community shall be consulted both before and after the program is implement- ed. Both traffic engineering criteria and community input shall be considered in evaluating the results'of the pro- gram. -Improvement Feature 4: Realignment' of the, intersection at Mesa Drive and Birch Street, Mesa Drive and. Acacia Street," and other possible alignments to provide a through traffic connection. Mesa Drive easterly of Birch. Street or Acacia Street shall be•realigned at the-1 intersection to discourage through traffic and provide a • residential community• entrance. A precise alignment study and EIR shall be. completed prior to'annexation. These circulation improvements are to be implemented in a phased manner -to best achieve the plan's objectives. Implementation of Improvement Features 1 "through 3 would be given prio=ity because they are designed to provide'an early reduction or elimination of through• and business park traffic in residential neighborhoods. Improvement Feature 4 would be implemented once warranted by business park devel- opment on Birch Street. Funding possibilities for these improvements: include the Orange County Development Agency, an. assessment district and/or developer contribution. B. PUBLIC SERVICES/UTILITIES PLAN. The Public Services/Utilities Plan addresses the adequacy of existing water, sewer and drainage facilities to meet existing and. ultimate demand and. identifies those public works facility, improvements needed to implement the Land Use Plan. The public works improvements recommended are based• on studies pre- pared by the county which took into account ultimate buildout of the specific plan area, Orange. County fire flow requirements and other design criteria.' City design criteria may differ in some areas which may require modificatiohs before implementation occurs. The proposed upgrading of 'facilities is* required to eliminate deficiencies -which will be created .once 'the Specific Plan is implemented. • Some relo- cation of .facilities is, necessary due to' proposed realignments of street right-of-way. Specific prdposals 'for the improvement and modification of facilities and services are described below. 39 1 3 Page 204 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 Water Distribution System Improvements. The Santa 'Ana Heights Water Company presently provides adequate water service to the specific plan area to serve existing land uses. Ultimate development of the area, however, will require the installation of six-inch and eight -inch water mains and additional fire'•hydrants for fire protection. Planned improvements are shown in Exhibit 11 and are described.as follows: Improvement Feature 1:. Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Irvine Avenue and Acacia. Street from South Bristol Street to Mesa Drive. •' Improvement Feature 2: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch fine on Mesa Drive from Acacia Street to Cypress Street. Improvement Feature 3: Replacement of 6-inch line with 8-inch line on Mesa Drive .from the intersection with Acacia Street west 500 feet. ' Improvement Feature 4: Relocation and new installation of four fire hydrants. The water -system improvements described provide .an estimate of new facilities, needed. .A comprehensive water system plan and implementation program must be developed for the area prior to any business park development. Funding :possibilities for these improvements include the Orange County Development. Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contributions. Sewer System Improvements. The Costa Mesa Sanitation District-(CMSD) presently provides sewer service to the specific plan area. Various sewer mains.in the area are currently flowing at -or near capacity. In order to adequately serve ultimate buildout; installation of 10-inch through 18-inch sewer mains and upgrading of two pump stations in the general area will be required. The following improvements (shown in Exhibit ]2)_ have been identified for construction and/or upgrading. Improvement Feature B: Line B, located along South Bristol Street, conveys flows from the specific plan area westerly to the 12-inch sewer lines which flow south along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel. This main serves as a major sewer trunkline serving the specific plan area. Line B is pres- ently an 8-inch diameter line; a 15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. 1.1r (' Page 205 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 Improvement Feature C: Line C, located along the Santa Ana -Delhi channel, conveys sewer flows from the western portion 'of Santa Ana Heights and the commercial center on Santa Ana Avenue. 'An 18-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. Improvement Feature.D: Pump Station•11 collects sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights and pumps to Sewer Pump Station 10 (Improvement Feature E). Pump Station 11 is proposed for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service :and remodeling of the existing wet well. Improvement Feature E: Pump Station 10 pumps sewer flows from various areas of Santa Ana Heights to.the 24-inch'sewer trunkline along Fair Drive (Improvement Feature F) which flows into the CMSD treatment facility. --Pump Station 10 is proposed -for upgrading, to include installation of new pumps and controls, electrical service and remodeling of the. existing wet well. Improvement Feature F: Line F is, d 24-inch' trunkline located along Fair Drive which transports flows. -from Pump Station 10 to .the CMSD treatment facility. A .15-inch parallel line is proposed to be installed. The sewer system.improvements described'.provide,an estimate of new facilities needed. A comprehensive sewer system plan and implementation program must be developed for the area prior to any business park development.. Funding ',possibilities for' these improvements include the Orange. County Development Agency, an assessment, district and/or developer contributions. 3. Drainage System Improvements In general, the existing storm runoff collection system within the specific plan area is adequate with the exception - of areas where proposed circulation realignments and modi- fications will alter street drainage=patterns. The ultimate land use -changes and. circulation improvements will require the construction of storm drains 'and a system of catch basins. Backbone improvements to the existing system are. shown in Exhibit 13•and are described as follows: Improvement Area 1: Catch basins at Orchard Drive and Birch Street Storm drains along Birch Street from Orchard Drive to Page 206 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 Mesa Drive Catch basin along Birch Street Catch basins at Mesa Drive to drain southerly Storm. drain from Mesa Drive to Santa Ana -Delhi channel Improvement Area 2: Storm:drain'on Cypress Street from Cypress Street cul-de-sac to South Bristol Street Catch -basins at Cypress Street cul-de-sac A localized drainage problem exists along Birch -and Cypress streets south of orchard Drive. In this area, surface runoff flows from parcels fronting on Cypress Street onto parcels along Birch Street. Ponding of water also occurs on, at least one parcel along Birch Street.. This drainage situation is . a particular concern .where business park development is planned to occur along Birch Street. Such development must provide for - the transport of runoff from adjacent residential parcels to the drainage facilities planned along•.Birch Street. The area affected by this drainage problem is highlighted in Exhibit 13, the boundary of which is based on existing topography. In order• to adequately provide for surface runoff in his K area, •a comprehensive• drainage plan and implementation program must be 'developed for the area prior to any business park development within the affected area. .Possible drain- age solutions which are being considered'include the follow- ing: An underground storm drain collection system A pumping station which collects storm runoff and pumps to an acceptable public storm drain system.: Funding possibilities for these improvements include the orange County Development Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contribution. 4. 'Electric, Telephone and Cable Television Improvements If it is the desire of the community to have utilities undergrounded, this would be accomplished through the Orange County -Development Agency, an assessment district, and/or developer contribution. Although not anticipated, the planned improvements/modifications to the circulation system A may require utility abandonments. 5. Street- Lights Page 207 SPECIFIC PLAN (Santa Ana Heights) Chapter 20.64 relocations, realignments or -A street light system in conformance with City standards will be included with street improvement projects in the business park area and -it requested in the residential area. Funding possibilities for.the street light system include - the orange•County Development -Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contribution. �. FIRE PROTECTION. Addition of the development in Santa Ana Heights to the City's fire protection responsibilities may require the construction of a fire station. The fire station could be located in or near Santa Ana Heights. Funding possibilities for the fire station include the orange County Development Agency, an assessment district and/or developer contributions. SAHSP2 A W.

Recreational Horse Permit Procedures Within the REQ District, most lots are relatively small (less than one- half acre), are very narrow (66 feet wide) and are surrounded by existing tract housing, existing retail commercial uses and proposed business park development. Due to the unique size and configuration of these lots and their close proximity to more urbanized uses, it is necessary to require a Recreational Horse Permit for the noncommercial keeping of horses and ponies for the purpose of ensuring compatibility with surrounding land uses. It is the intention of the County to provide for annual inspections of such equestrian facilities by all pertinent authorities, including Vector Control, Animal Control, Environmental Health, Regulation Enforcement and others, as necessary, to ensure that the regulations set forth below are being properly implemented. All regulations associated with Recreational Horse Permits, except provisions pertaining to escapes of animals, shall be enforced by the Director, Environmental Management Agency, or his designee. Within one year of the effective date of these regulations, any property owner or tenant keeping more than two (2) horses and/or ponies, over the age of eight (8) months, on a single building site within the REQ District shall obtain a Recreational Horse Permit approved by the Director, EMA. After one year of the effective date of these regulations, any property owner or tenant introducing or adding horses and/or ponies onto properties within the REQ District shall, within one month, obtain a Recreational Horse Permit if the total number of such animals, over the age of eight (8) months, exceeds two (2). The Director, EMA shall issue a permit for the keeping of such animals upon receipt of the fee established by the Board of Supervisors, if any, and when, in his opinion, 1) such animals are being kept or maintained without endangering the safety and comfort of the inhabitants of the neighborhood, and 2) the property owner or tenant has complied with the regulations below and the REQ District regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations or any conditions imposed by the Director, EMA shall constitute cause for denial or revocation of such permit. Any person whose application for a Recreational Horse Permit is denied or revoked under the terms of this specific plan may appeal the decision of the Director, EMA to the Board of Supervisors in accordance with the procedures set forth in section 5-2-19 of the Business and Special Licenses Regulations. Recreational Horse Permits shall be non- transferable and must be renewed annually. IV-36 The following regulations shall apply: a.
