Mandatory Findings of Significance.
a~
Does the project have the potential to
degrade the quality of the environment
substantially reduce the habitat of a
fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or
wildlife population to drop below self
sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate
a plant or animal community, reduce the
number or restrict the range of a rare or
endangered plant or animal or eliminate
important examples of the major periods
of California history or prehistory?
be
Does the project have the potential to
achieve short-term, to the disadvantage of
long-term, environmental goals? (A short-
term impact on the environment is one
which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive
period of time while long-term impacts will
endure well into the future).
Ce
Does the project have impacts which are
individually limited, but cumulatively con-
siderable? (A project may impact on two
or more separate resources where the impact
on each resource is relatively small, but
where the effect of the total of those
impacts on the environment is significant.)
de
Does the project have environmental effects
which will cause substantial adverse effects
on human beings, either directly or
indirectly?
III. Discussion of Environmental Evaluation
SEE EXHIBIT A (attached)
IV. Determination
(To be completed by the Lead Agency)
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a
significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
x
I find that although the proposed project could have
a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a significant effect in this case because the
mitigation measure described on an attached sheet have
been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION WILL
BE PREPARED
I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect
on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
is required.

EXHIBIT A
INITIAL STUDY RESPONSES
BACKGROUND
This project, identified as Conditional Use Permit 90-33, has been
undertaken by the applicant to transform an existing pick-up and
delivery dry cleaning facility into an on premise dry cleaning
facility. The project is located at 14031 Prospect Avenue in the
Pinewood Plaza Shopping Center at the southwest corner of Prospect
and Seventeenth Streets, which has a Planned Community - Commercial
zoning designation. An on-premise dry cleaning plant is considered
a retail use and is not considered different from other retail uses
except in the introduction of flammable liquids in the dry cleaning
process. Since a list of permitted or conditionally permitted uses
was not established for the shopping center at the time of its
Planned Community - Commercial zoning designation, allowed uses
specified in the Tustin Zoning Code are applicable. Where dry
cleaning plants are specified in the Tustin City Code commercial
district regulations, they are subject to a Conditional Use Permit.
Therefore this project requires a Conditional Use Permit.
A majority of the responses to the Initial Study questions are
negative as the proposed use is retail, which is suitable in the
existing commercial center in which the proposed dry cleaning
facility is located.
1. EARTH
Items A throuqh G - "No": - The project site is within a
developed shopping center and does not require any
construction that would involve the moving of earth, resulting
in unstable conditions, changes in topography or exposure to
geological hazards.
Sources: Field verification
Proposed floor plan
Tustin Municipal Code
Uniform Building Code
Mitiqation/Monitorinq Required: None
2. AIR
Items A throuqh B - "Maybe" and Item C - "No": The proposed
project is a stationary source of air pollution, and is
considered to contribute to air emissions. Therefore it is
subject to specific regulations by the South Coast Air Quality
Management District. The project will utilize and maintain
quantities of materials that may create objectionable odors.
The project is in an existing developed urban area and will
not have a significant impact on the climate, or pose

Mitigation/Monitorinq Required: As a condition of approval,
the applicant will be required to file for and obtain
necessary permits a Permit to Construct/Operate from the South
Coast Air Quality Management District. Monitoring is
conducted by the SCAQMD for compliance with their
requirements.
WATER
Items A through I - "No": The project site is currently
developed and is not located adjacent to or in the vicinity of
any large bodies of water. The project will have no affect on
site drainage. The project will utilize water resources in
its operation; however, the minimum amount of water
consumption anticipated would not significantly reduce
available water.
Sources: Proposed site plan
City of Tustin Public Works Department
Mitigation/Monitorinq Required: None
PLANT LIFE
Items A throuqh D "No": The project site is currently
developed and contains no known rare or endangered species on
the property. The project will not alter existing site
landscaping.
Sources: Site Field Inspection

Field Inspection
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: None required.
NOISE
Item A - "Maybe" and Items B - "No": The proposed use is not
anticipated to substantially increase noise levels in the area
or expose persons to severe noise levels, however, noise
levels could be reduced by isolating swamp coolers and venting
equipment to screened rooftop area; thereby minimizing impacts
to surrounding properties. Similar impacts are created due to
sporadic noise caused by car doors, ignition of car engines
and human communications. This noise source is for the
existing shopping center and does not exceed the parameters of
the Noise Ordinance but may occasionally generate annoyance
noise situations.
Sources: Proposed Floor Plan
Tustin Noise Ordinance
Tustin General Plan
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: As a condition of approval,
the applicant will be required to operate per the requirements
of the Tustin Noise Ordinance which in part limits noise
generation to a maximum of 65 dba in commercial areas. The
Community Development Department and Police Department would
monitor the site and remedy any activities in violation of the
Noise Ordinance. A second condition of approval would require
the applicant to isolate swamp coolers and venting equipment
in a screened area.
LIGHT AND GLARE
"No": The project will not require the addition of lighting
as the development currently exists and there are no
modifications to the exterior proposed.
Exhibit A

Mitigation/Monitoring Required: None required.
8. LAND USE
"No": The project is within an existing shopping center zoned
PC - Planned Community Commercial Zoning District. Since a
list of permitted uses and conditionally permitted uses was
not established for the shopping center at the time of its
establishment, allowed uses specified in Tustin's commercial
zoning districts are applicable. Where dry cleaning plants
are specified in the commercial districts regulations they are
subject to a Conditional Use Permit. Therefore, this project
requires a Conditional Use Permit. The project will not
result in alterations of the present or planned land uses on
the site.

interference with emergency response on evacuation.
Sources: Use Permit Application
City of Tustin Risk Evaluation Map
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: As a condition of approval
the storage and use of chemicals on the premises would be
required to be reported to the Orange County Fire Department.
Such materials would then be monitored and regulated by the
Orange County Fire Department and applicable Sections of the
Uniform Fire Code, which would reduce the potential impacts to
an acceptable level.
11. POPULATION
"No": The project is relatively small in size and scale and
will not increase the general population in the area.
Therefore, no significant increase in population is
anticipated as a result of the project.
Sources: Field Inspections

Mitigation/Monitoring: None required.
12. HOUSING
"No": The project will not reduce the number of housing units
within the City as the tenant space is part of an existing
shopping center. There is an adequate supply of housing
elsewhere in the City, and there will not be an increase in
housing as a result of this project.

14. PUBLIC SERVICES
Items A throuqh F - "No": The proposed use does not
substantially contribute towards the concentration of or
increase in the provision of public services such as police,
fire, schools, parks and recreational facilities, or
maintenance of public facilities. Typically, retail uses do
not impact schools or parks and recreational type uses or
facilities.

Mitiqation/Monitorinq Required: None Required.
17. HUMAN HEALTH
Items A and B - "Maybe": As noted previously in Item 10, the
proposed use does involve the use of known hazardous or
explosive materials as the various dry cleaning fluids will be
stored on the premises.
Sources: Use Permit Application
Mitiqation/Monitorinq Required: As a condition of approval,
the project will be required to meet both the SCAQMD and OCFD
approvals and permits. The results of which would avoid or
mitigate negative effects by requiring the specification of
quantities, storage and use requirements.
18. SOLID WASTE
"No": The project will contribute cumulatively to the solid
waste disposal of the City. However, the contribution was
anticipated during construction of the existing shopping
center and the proposed use is not extraordinary to other
retail uses in relationship to solid waste disposal.
Sources: Use Permit Application
Mitiqation/Monitorinq Required: None required.
19. AESTHETICS
"No": The project is not located along a scenic corridor or
within a special design district and the project is within an
