TUSTIN CERTIFYING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
76-5
,,
The City Council of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve
as follows-
1. The City Council finds and determines:
a. That a draft Environmental Impact Report (76-5)
was prepared under the staff supervision for the
purpose of evaluating the impact upon the environ-
ment of the annexation of the Irvine-Myford lands
to the City of Tustin and the ultimate development.
under various alternative land uses.
b. That contact and discussions were held with ali
agencies having jurisdiction by law and with those
having knowledge and interest in subject land, as a
basis for the evaluation of environmental impacts
of subject project. ·
c. That a.'public hearing was duly advertised and con-
ducted by the City Council for the purpose of
evaluating EIR 76-5 on December 20, 1976.
2. The City Council hereby finds and determines that the
subject annexation proposal and ultimate development
the area will have the following adverse impacts:
a. The loss of agricultural food production of unique
character.
b. Urbanization with its growth inducing elements con-
comitant with the adverse factors of noise, traffic,
congestion, potential demands for public services
including public safety, transportation and other
governmental services.
c. The loss of open space.
d. Potential degradation of water quality.
e. Energy consumption.
f. Potential flood plain hazards.
3. The City Council hereby finds and determines that the
following factors mitigate adverse impacts to a degree
that justifies the annexation and ultimate development ol
the project:
..
a. There is no assurance that agricultural production
will continue within the area and it is reasonable
to assume that agricultural operations will be
abandoned at such time as it is no longer economical]
feasible.
b. Open space can be provided by design to be of total
public benefit and access rather than that which is
limited by private owner.ship.

c. The annexation of the Subjeet area to the City of
Tustin will permit the expenditures of time, effort
and manDower toward the planning of the ultimate
development of the subject lands with concei'n for·
the. total environment.
d. Ultimate development .enables the opportunity to
satisfy some of the pressures for housing within
the proximity of places of employment and to
accommodate the housing requirements of all economic
segments of the community.
e. The planning and development of the subject area Will
enable the control and direction of storm water as an
amenity rather than a hazard to the area by providing
for collection, percolation, and retardation of flow.
f. By ultimate development of the subject, land, the pro-
cess of urban sprawl within Orange County can be
retarded to provide for development in urbanized and
adjaeent to urbanized areas rather than the present
policies of remote developments causing an economic
burden for transportation, road networks., urban
services, and utilit~ies, which are ref].ected upon
the costs of the existing residents of Orange County
with a net increase in energy consumption.
g. The opportunity exists by the annexation and develop-
ment of the subject property within the jurisdiction
of the City of Tustin to provide for economic
feasibility for both future residents and serving
governmental agencies, by assuring an economic cost/
benefit ratio for present and future generations.
h. The early identification of environmental factors to
include physical and social elements, will contribute
to the objectives of achieving a balanced community.

(as amended), is hereby certified by the.City Council
of the City of Tustin. .
