Caltrans right-of-way parcel located adjacent to the 1-5/SR-55
freeway interchange at 15500 Tustin Village Way, more specifically
described as the Director's Deed recorded on September 28, 1998

B,
That a public hearing was duly called, noticed and held on said
application on February 22, 1999 by the Planning Commission.
C,
That the proposed General Plan Amendment 99-001 and Zone
Change 99-001 are consistent with and implement the policies of
the General Plan, in that:

redevelopment. The proposed amendments would allow an
abandoned right-of-way parcel to be incorporated into an
existing residential community.

Policy 5.8 encourages the improvement of edge treatments
between transportation rights-of-way and residential
developments. The proposed amendments would allow a
residential community the opportunity to redevelop an
abandoned freeway right-of-way parcel that is adjacent to
their community.

Whereas, the City Engineer has determined that there is no public
need for the subject parcel.
