ORDINANCE NO. 1429)
SUMMARY:
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) proposes the incorporation of text amendments
to the Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City Code (TCC). The incorporation of text
amendments into the Zoning Code will ensure that it will be internally consistent,
consistent with the requirements of California State Law by incorporating legal updates,
and consistent with the Tustin General Plan.

BACKGROUND:
Commission adopt Resolution No. 4210 recommending that the
adopt a Negative Declaration and approve Code Amendment 13-
adopting Ordinance No. 1429 to amend Article 4 and Article 9 of
For the last 15 years, the Planning Commission and the Community Development
Department have been amending the Zoning Code to modernize and keep the
associated land use provisions current. This update would bring the code closer to a
modern format with tables and figures added. As with all codes, the Community
Development Department staff will routinely and periodically prepare amendments to
the City's zoning and development regulations to ensure it remains up to date.
At the regular meeting of February 26, 2013, staff provided draft Ordinance No. 1429
and Code Amendment 13-001 and the existing Tustin City Code (Sections to be
amended) in a transmittal document for Planning Commission and public review. At that
time, a brief presentation was provided to outline the proposed amendments and
provide information on how to use the reference documents for review.

ANALYSIS:
The goal of the proposed code amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives,
policies, and general plan land use programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for
the City of Tustin. Specifically, Code Amendment 13-001 will provide updates consistent
with state law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
In general, code amendments being proposed include the following:
• Add Sections 9220, 9230, and 9240 to incorporate existing site development
standards for the residential, commercial and industrial districts into one location
and consolidate the site development standards of all uses within each district
• Provide updated terminology for individual uses (i.e. "churches" are termed
"places of worship")
• Alphabetize listed uses
• Provide updated definitions and standards to reflect changes with California
State Law (i.e. Recycling Centers as set forth in TCC 9271 bb were organized
and clarified for consistency with State law)
• Incorporate policy practice into the Zoning Code (i.e. guest quarters will be
subject to a recorded deed restriction)
• Incorporate standards for open space for high density housing (i.e. The Multiple
Family Residential District will require minimum common and private open
space)
• Eliminate repetitiveness by organizing similar requirements into a single code
section (i.e. multiple family dwelling reconstruction/replacement moved to non-
confirming uses section)
• Incorporate uses that are permitted (i.e. massage establishments are required by
State law to be permitted where similar service uses are permitted)
• Incorporate use determinations (i.e. tutoring facilities are permitted in the Pr
District)
• Capitalize the term "Conditional Use Permit" throughout
• Incorporate code requirements that were unintentionally removed in prior code
amendments (i.e. underground utilities requirement was inadvertently removed in
a recent Building Code update)

• Incorporate zoning requirements found elsewhere in the Tustin City Code into the
Zoning Code and relocate portions not intended for the Zoning Code (i.e.
incorporate home occupation requirements and move recycling requirements to
the Solid Waste section of the Tustin City Code)
• Clarify and incorporate the title Community Development Director where
appropriate (i.e. Zoning Permits are approved by the Community Development
Director, not the Building Official)
• Provide updates to terms in the definitions and include illustrative figures where
appropriate (i.e. Figure 5-3 added to support terms such as "reverse corner lot")
• Include terminology previously covered in the City's Alcoholic Beverage
Guidelines (i.e. micro-winery, a use similar to micro-brewery, is defined)
• Clarify and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with
Council policy and provisions (i.e. minor adjustment is permitted with approval
from the ZA for an increase of up to 10% in sign area)
If adopted, Code Amendment 13-001 would ensure consistency and conformance
throughout the document and with the objectives, policies of the City's General Plan.
Code Amendment 13-001 complies with the General Plan, including the following goals
and policies:
LU Goal 1: Provide for a well balanced land use pattern that accommodates existing
and future needs for housing, commercial and industrial land, open space
and community facilities and services, while maintaining a healthy,
diversified economy adequate to provide future City services.
LU Goal 2: Ensure that future land use decisions are the result of sound and
comprehensive planning.
LU Goal 3: Ensure that new development is compatible with surrounding land uses in
the community, the City's circulation network, availability of public
facilities, existing development constraints and the City's unique
characteristics and resources.
LU Goal 4: Assure a safe, healthy, and aesthetically pleasing community for residents
and businesses;

On the basis of this initial evaluation:
❑ Agriculture Resources
❑ Biological Resources
❑ Geology/Soils
❑ Hydrology/Water Quality
❑ Mineral Resources
❑ Population/Housing

F-1 Utilities/Service Systems
Z I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and
a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
F-J 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 revisions in the project have been
made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION
will be prepared.
❑ I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
F-1 I find that although the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact" or
"potentially significant unless mitigated impact" on the environment, but at least one effect 1)
has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards,
and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described
in the attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must
analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
❑ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment,
because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR
OR NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided
or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR OR NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or
mitin,qtion measures that are imr)osed upon the r)ror)osed oroiect. and no further

D. EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
Directions
1) A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately
supported by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses following each
question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources
show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved (e.g., the project
falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be explained where it is based
on project - specific factors and general standards (e.g., the project will not expose sensitive
receptors to pollutants, based on a project - specific screening analysis).
2) All answers must take into account the whole action involved, including off -site, on -site,
cumulative project level, indirect, direct, construction, and operational impacts.
3) Once the lead agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, then the
checklist answers must indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than
significant with mitigation, or less than significant. "Potentially Significant Impact" is
appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be significant. If there are one or
more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made and EIR is
required.
4) "Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the
incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant
Impact' to a "Less than Significant Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation
measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level
(mitigation measures from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," may be cross - referenced).
5) Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA
process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration.
Section 15063 (c) (3) (D). In this case, a brief discussion should identify the following:
a) Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review.
b) Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were
within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable
legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation measures
based on the earlier analysis.
c) Mitigation Measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures
Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from
the earlier document and the extent to which they address site - specific conditions for the
project.
6) Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information
sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001)
City of Tustin
previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the
page or pages where the statement is substantiated.
7) Supporting Information Sources: A source list should be attached, and other sources used or
individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion.
8) This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different formats; however,
lead agencies normally address the questions from this checklist that are relevant to a project's
environmental effects in whatever format is selected.
9) The explanation of each issue should identify:
a) the significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and,
b) the mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significance.

Discussion:
Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429)— Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code. The goal of the proposed code
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13-001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated
terminology, definitions and standards to reflect changes with California State Law, incorporate
standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a) No Impact. The City of Tustin General Plan encourages protection of scenic views and resources
through site planning and architectural design and through implementation of the Grading and
Excavation Code and Manual. The ordinance is intended to update the Zoning Code with text
amendments including terminology, definitions, and standards to reflect California State Law. The
ordinance is not anticipated to affect any scenic resources in that there are no physical changes
proposed. Therefore, this project will not have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista.

Code Amendment 13 -001 (CA 13 -001)
City of Tustin
b) No Impact. The General Plan Circulation Element does not identify any State scenic highways
within the City. There are no impacts related to the Ordinance in that the text amendments will
consolidate standards and provide clarification in the Zoning Code. Therefore, no impacts are
anticipated from the implementation of the proposed project.
c) No Impact. The code amendment does not exempt individual projects from review. Impacts
related to any future project may be identified and evaluated in conjunction with the applicable
discretionary process and may be subject to separate CEQA review. Therefore, no impacts are
anticipated from the implementation of the proposed project.
d) No Impact. The code amendment will not create a source of light and glare. The amendment
seeks to protect scenic views through the addition of light and glare regulations to the Zoning Code.
Individual projects may be subject to providing a photometric plan and additional review may be
required on a case -by -case basis for lighting of parking lots and loading areas. However, there is no
impact associated with this project.
Mitigation Measures /Monitoring Required: No additional mitigation measures required.

determining whether impacts to
agricultural resources are significant
environmental effects, lead agencies
may refer to the California Agricultural
Land Evaluation and Site Assessment
Model (1997) prepared by the
California Dept. of Conservation as an
optional model to use in assessing
impacts on agriculture and farmland.
Would the project:
a) Convert Prime Farmland, 0 D
Unique Farmland, or Farmland
of Statewide Importance
(Farmland), as shown on the
maps prepared pursuant to the
Farmland Mapping and
Monitoring Program of the
California Resources Agency, to
non-agricultural use?
b) Conflict with existing zoning for El ❑ El Z
agricultural use, or a Williamson
Act contract?
c) Involve other changes in the El El El Z
existing environment which, due
to their location or nature, could
result in conversion of

standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions,
a) No Impact. The code amendment will not result in the conversion of farmland to a non-
agricultural use. The code amendment will incorporate text amendments including changes to
updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate and updates to terminology
and definitions. Furthermore, since there are no improvements proposed in conjunction with this
project, it will not result in any impacts to Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of
Statewide Importance (Farmland).
b) No Impact. The code amendment will not result in conversion of farmland to a non-agricultural
use. There are no areas subject to a Williamson Act contract, and conservation of farmland in the
Tustin Planning Area. Impacts related to any future project would be identified and evaluated in
conjunction with each specific project. Therefore, no impacts are forecast to occur as a result of
implementation of the code amendment.
c) No Impact. As described in Response II.b above, the proposed project will not directly impact or
result in the conversion of existing farmland uses to non-agricultural uses. Therefore, no impacts are
forecast to occur as a result of implementation of the code amendment.
Mitigation Measures/Monitoring Required: No additional mitigation measures required.

Therefore, no impacts are forecast to occur as a result of implementation of the code amendment.
b-e) No Impacts. Grading and development activities are not associated with the proposed code
amendment. Impacts related to any future project would be identified and evaluated in conjunction
with the discretionary review process and/or applicable specific plan or other review document and
may be subject to separate CEQA review. Furthermore, projects are subject to the City's standard
conditions of approval to minimize local nuisance from grading and construction activities. This
condition is in conformance with the SCAQMD requirements and therefore, no impacts are
anticipated to occur.

a, b) No Impact. The California Fish and Game Code was adopted by the State legislature to
protect the fish and wildlife resources of the State. Special permits are required for any lake or stream
alterations, dredging or other activities that may affect fish and game habitat. No physical
improvements are currently proposed in conjunction with the amendment to the zoning code.
Impacts related to any future project would be identified and evaluated in conjunction with the
California Fish and Game Code and may be subject to separate CEQA review. Therefore, no impacts
will result with implementation of the code amendment.
c) No Impact. In accordance with the City's existing permit (Order No. R8-2002-0010 and NPIDES
No. CAS618030) with the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Santa Ana Region, any future
applicant may be required to prepare a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to ensure
grading and reclamation activities do not allow runoff from the site to carry sediment during a storm
event to impair the water quality. The code amendment will incorporate text amendments to update
the Zoning Code. Any future project that is considered a priority project will be required to prepare a
Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) as part of the discretionary review process to ensure runoff
from the site, due to ongoing operations, does not impair water quality downstream. Therefore, no
impact is anticipated as part of the code amendment that could cause a substantial adverse effect on
federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.
d) No Impact. As discussed in response IV.a, b, the code amendment does not propose any
physical changes. The code amendment will incorporate modifications including spelling and
grammar corrections, changes to reflect California State Law, and updates and terminology and
definition updates to the Zoning Code. Impacts related to any future project could be identified and
evaluated as part of the discretionary review process in conjunction with the California Fish and
Game Code and may be subject to separate CEQA review and conditions of approval limiting grading
activities. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated from the implementation of the code amendment.
e) No Impact. The City's General Plan Conservation/Open Space/Recreation Element mandates
continued maintenance of significant tree strands. New developments may require a biological
assessment as required in the review process. This code amendment will incorporate modifications
including the incorporation of standards for open space for high density housing. These standards are
consistent with other open space requirements in the City of Tustin and other surrounding Cities and
will ensure the development and maintenance of minimum open space areas for high density
housing. Other modifications to be incorporated in the code amendment will not change or impact
current biological resource policies. Future development applications may be subject to further
discretionary review for consistency with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological
resources. Therefore, there is no impact.
f) No Impact. The City of Tustin is a participating member of the Natural Community Conservation
Plan (NCCP) and is within the Coastal Sub/Central Orange County NCCP region. No physical
improvements are currently proposed in conjunction with the amendment to the zoning code.
Impacts related to any future project would be identified and evaluated in conjunction with the
applicable NCCP/HCP plan or any other conservation plan and may be subject to separate CEQA
review. Therefore, the code amendment has no impact.

Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429) — Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code, The goal of the proposed code
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13-001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated
terminology, definitions and standards to reflect changes with California State Law; incorporate
standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
13
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) City of Tustin
a) No Impact. The City of Tustin General Plan sets out conservation goals to maintain and enhance
the City's unique culturally and historically significant building sites or features. Specifically, Policy
12.1 Identify, designate, and protect facilities of historical significance, and Policy 12.3 Development
adjacent to a place, structure or object found to be of historic significance should be designed so that
the uses permitted and the architectural design will protect the visual setting of the historical site.
Since the zoning code amendment will not change or alter the physical environment and each
individual project will be subject to the City's Goals and Policies of the General Plan, the project is not
anticipated to create a substantial adverse change to historical resources and no impacts are forecast
from the implementation of the proposed project.
b, c) No Impact. According to the City of Tustin General Plan Conservation/Open Space/Recreation
Element (Goal 13), and the Standard Conditions of Approval, individual projects will be subject to site
inspection by certified archaeologists or paleontologists for new development in designated sensitive
areas. These conditions will be required on a case-by-case basis for individual projects subject to
discretionary review; however this code amendment proposes no physical changes. Therefore, no
impacts related to archaeological resources would result from the proposed project.
d) No Impact. No physical improvements are currently proposed in conjunction with the code
amendment. As such, the project will not adversely affect, destroy or disturb human remains. Impacts
related to any future project would be identified and evaluated through the discretionary review
process in conjunction with a specific project and standard conditions of approval applied; however,
no foreseeable impacts related to cultural resources are anticipated.

standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a (i) No Impact. According to the City of Tustin General Plan, Public Safety Element, the Tustin
Planning Area (Planning Area) lies within a seismically active region. However, there are no known
active or suspected potentially active faults identified within the Planning Area. The El Modena fault
passes through the Planning Area's northern section; however, studies have not been conclusive
about the active/inactive status of this fault. The code amendment proposes no physical changes and
individual proposals would be subject to individual review. Therefore, no impacts associated with
rupture of a known earthquake fault are anticipated with the implementation of the code amendment.
a (ii) No Impact. There is no evidence of any active or potentially active faults within the Tustin
Planning Area (Planning Area) and it is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone.
However, the Planning Area is located in the seismically active region of southern California. Slight to
intense ground shaking is possible at within the Planning Area if an earthquake occurs on a segment
of the active faults in the region. Under current seismic design standards and California Building
Code (CBC) provisions, new buildings would incur only minor damage in small to moderate
earthquakes, and potential structural damage during a large earthquake, although new buildings are
expected to remain standing during such events (City of Tustin General Plan, Safety Element). With
application of the provisions of Chapter 16A Division IV of the 1998 California Building Code and the
Structural Engineers Association of California, (SEAOC) guidelines, adequate structural protection in
Structure! Association -
the event of an earthquake would be provided, thus reducing impacts from strong seismic ground
shaking to a less than significant level. Since there is no development associated with the zoning
IT61-
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) City of Tustin
code amendment and individual projects would be subject to the California Building Code and the
SEAOC guidelines, no impacts will occur as part of this project.
a (iii -iv) No Impact. There is no development associated with the zoning code amendment and
individual projects would be subject to the California Building Code and the SEAOC guidelines.
Furthermore, a standard condition of approval requiring a soils report will be required prior to
issuance of a grading permit for any future project. Therefore, no impacts will occur as part of this
code amendment.
b) No Impact. The City of Tustin is a co-permittee with Orange County in the NPDES program,
which is designed to reduce pollutants in storm water runoff. Accordingly, during construction of any
future project, the applicant will be required to develop and submit a SWPPP to the Santa Ana
RWQMP for compliance with the Statewide NPDES for construction activity. The SWPPP would
contain BMPs as identified in the Orange County Drainage Area Master Plan (DAMP) to eliminate or
reduce erosion and polluted runoff. General BMPs applicable to construction include erosion
controls, sediment controls, tracking controls, wind erosion control, non-storm water management,
and materials and water management. A standard condition of approval requiring BMP's as part of
individual development plans may be required as part of the discretionary review process prior to
issuance of a grading permit for any future project. Therefore, no impacts will occur as part of this
project.
c-d) No Impact. As indicated in VLa (ii) above, there is no development associated with the zoning
code amendment. Individual projects would be subject to the California Building Code and the
SEAOC guidelines. A soils report prepared by a certified soils engineer may be required as part of
any project on a case-by-case basis. Since there is no development associated with the zoning code
amendment, no impacts will occur as part of this project.
e) No Impact. The code amendment does not involve the use of septic tanks or alternative
wastewater disposal systems. On a case-by-case basis as part of the discretionary review process,
any future proposed project may be subject to submit a site-specific geotechnical investigation for the
site and preparation of a geologic and soils report prepared by a certified soils engineer. Therefore,
no impacts will occur from the implementation of the proposed project.

Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429) — Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code. The goal of the proposed code
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13-001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated

and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a - c) No Impact. The project involves the implementation of a new zoning code amendment to
make modifications and updates to the Zoning Code. There are no hazardous materials proposed as
part of this project. Each individual development project will be subject to review on a case-by-case
basis for hazardous materials. Therefore, no impacts related to this issue will result from the
proposed project, and no mitigation measures are required.
d) No Impact. This project does not involve a specific hazardous materials site. Any new project will
be subject to review with the list compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5. A
19
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) City of Tustin
standard condition of approval may require a site-specific geotechnical investigation for the entire site
and preparation of a geologic and soils report will be required as part of the project. Therefore, no
impacts related to this issue will result from the proposed project.
e - f) No Impact. According to the City's General Plan Circulation Element, air travel is available
from John Wayne Airport in Orange County, approximately five miles to the south by surface
roadway. However, the Tustin Planning Area does not lie within any of John Wayne's safety zones.
The former MCAS Tustin helicopter station was located in the southern portion of the City. A Specific
Plan for reuse of the base has resulted in the elimination of aviation uses, with the exception of
heliports individually permitted or blimp operations as an interim use. New development will be
subject to review with the Airport Land Use Commission if necessary. Any conditions of approval will
be incorporated into each individual project where necessary. Therefore, no safety hazards are
anticipated related to this issue.
g-h) No Impact. The zoning code amendment will incorporate text modifications into the zoning
code. It would not involve any changes or uses that would interfere with the City's Emergency
Operations Plan or with major emergency evacuation routes out of the area; nor is it anticipated to
expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death wildland fires, including where
wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands.
Therefore, there are no impacts associated with this issue.

Discussion:
Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429) — Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code. The goal of the proposed code
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13-001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated
terminology, definitions and standards to reflect changes with California State Law, incorporate
standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a - b) No Impact. The City of Tustin is a co-permittee with Orange County in the NPDES program,
which is designed to reduce pollutants in storm water runoff. The code amendment does not include
construction of new facilities. Accordingly, during construction of any future development project, the
applicant may be required to develop and submit a SWPPP to the Santa Ana RWQMP for
compliance with the Statewide NPDES for construction activity. The SWPPP would contain BMPs as
identified in the Orange County Drainage Area Master Plan (DAMP) to eliminate or reduce erosion
and polluted runoff. General BMPs applicable to construction include erosion controls, sediment
24
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) City of Tustin
controls, tracking controls, wind erosion control, non-storm water management, and materials and
water management.
By preparing a SWPPP for NPDES compliance in addition to the standard conditions of approval for
water quality, any future project could potentially meet all applicable regulations to manage runoff
from the project site. Pollutants in storm water would be substantially reduced by source control and
treatment BMPs. Since there is no development proposed as part of this project, there would be no
impacts.
c) No Impact. Construction of any future project may temporarily alter existing drainage patterns, as
there would be areas of exposed soil during grading and excavation activities. If a storm event were
to occur during these activities, exposed sediments may be carried off-site and into the local storm
drain system increasing siltation. However, as discussed in Response No. VIII.a-b, any future project
would be required, as part of the standard conditions of approval of the discretionary review process,
to implement construction BMPs in compliance with the NPDES permit and Orange County Drainage
Area Master Plan (DAMP) to eliminate or reduce erosion and polluted runoff. Therefore, there are no
impacts associated with this project.
d -e) No Impact. The code amendment provides update modifications into the Zoning Code. Any
future project would be subject to individual review and may be subject to CEQA review. To ensure
off-site drainage does not result in flooding on or off-site, any future applicant may be required, as
part of the standard conditions of approval, to provide on-site hydrology and hydraulic calculations for
the proposed development and hydraulic calculations for proposed connections to the existing storm
drain system. This will ensure drainage improvements of any future project site will have a less than
significant effect on the environment. However, this will be assessed as part of the discretionary
review process; there are no impacts associated with the implementation of the code amendment.
f) No Impact. Compliance with the NPDES permit (refer to Response VIII.a-b) and BMPs
(discussed in Responses VIII.a-b, VIII.c, and VIII.d above) would reduce potential water quality
impacts to less than significant levels. There are no impacts associated with the implementation of
the code amendment.
g - h) No Impact. The code amendment will provided updates and modifications into the Zoning
Code. Future projects are not anticipated to generate or increase runoff typically associated with
parking areas but would be reviewed on a case-by-case basis as part of the discretionary review
process. Furthermore, adherence to an approved Water Quality Management Plan will help to
minimize polluted runoff into the storm drain. Since there is no development associated with the
zoning code amendment, individual projects may be subject to providing a WQMP. Therefore, no
impacts will occur as part of this project.
i+ No Impact. As described in response VIIIg-h, runoff typically increases with parking, however,
there is no development associated with this zoning code amendment in that uses determined by the
Community Development Director and/or Planning Commission to be similar to permitted and
conditionally permitted uses will be incorporated into the Zoning Code. Individual projects may be
subject to providing a WQMP on a case-by-case basis. Therefore, there are no impacts associated
with the proposed project.
k) No Impact. The code amendment will ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and
general plan land use programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin through the
25
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) City of Tustin
incorporation of updates in California State Law, and updates of terminology and definitions into the
Zoning Code. Any future project may generate and increase in runoff and types of pollutants (i.e.:
some trash and oil/grease from vehicles). As discussed in Response No. Vill a-b and c), construction
and operation of any new project will be subject to comply with the requirements of the Orange
County NPDES program, which is designed to reduce pollutants in storm water runoff. Accordingly,
any new applicant will be required to implement BMPs as identified in the Orange County Drainage
Area Master Plan (DAMP) to eliminate or reduce erosion and polluted runoff during and after
construction of the proposed project. Adherence to an approved Water Quality Management Plan will
help to minimize polluted runoff into the storm drain. There is no development associated with this
project and individual projects would be subject to providing a WQMP on a case-by-case basis.
Therefore, no impacts will occur.
1) No Impact. There is no construction proposed as part of the code amendment. There are no
Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESA's) or Areas of Special Biological Significance (ASBS) identified
on the San Diego Creek Watershed map. Therefore, there are no impacts associated with this issue.
m) No Impact. There is no construction proposed as part of the code amendment. However, if a new
development or redevelopment project involves the addition of 2,500 square feet or more of
impervious surface and is located within, directly adjacent to (within 200 feet), or discharging directly
to receiving waters within environmentally sensitive areas, then it qualifies as a priority project and is
subject to additional requirements. Furthermore, individual projects may be subject to providing a
WQMP on a case-by-case basis. However, there is no development associated with this project;
therefore no impacts will occur.
n) No Impact. The code amendment will make text modifications to the Zoning Code. There is no

p - q) No Impact. As discussed in Response No. Vill a, b, c, any future construction of individual
projects will be subject to comply with the requirements of the Orange County NPDES program,
which is designed to reduce pollutants in storm water runoff. Accordingly, any individual applicant will
be required to implement BMPs as identified in the Orange County Drainage Area Master Plan
(DAMP) to eliminate or reduce erosion and polluted runoff during and after construction of the
proposed project. No impact is associated with the code amendment.
r) No Impact. As discussed in Response No. Vill a- c, any future proposed construction and
operation of an individual project may be subject to comply with the requirements of the Orange

implemented an Emergency Preparedness Plan that addresses several hazard areas including
flooding. This Emergency Preparedness Plan has been reviewed by State and Federal agencies
which have their own roles in the event of an emergency. Any future development project would be
subject to review on a case-by-case basis as to whether or not it is within a flood zone (as addressed
in VIII t-u) and potentially subject to significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including
flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam. However, there are no impacts associated with
the code amendment.
w) No Impact. Any future development projects would be subject to review to determine whether
the project is within an area that has been identified as susceptible to liquefaction or potential bedrock
landslides. These areas are identified on Figure COSR-1 of the City's General Plan. When
development is proposed within these areas, studies shall be performed as directed by the City to
determine the potential for hazards and the amount of development which is supportable on the site.
As described in VIII v, in the unlikely event of inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow an individual
project would be part of the City's Emergency Preparedness Plan. Therefore, no impacts associated
with the code amendment.

Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429) — Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code. The goal of the proposed code
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13-001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated
terminology, definitions and standards to reflect changes with California State Law, incorporate
standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a) No Impact. The code amendment will provide updates to the Zoning. The code amendment is
not anticipated to physically divide an established community in that the incorporation of amendments
will ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use programs specified in
the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Therefore, no impacts will occur.
b) No Impact. The City's General Plan indicates the following: Goal 2: Ensure that future land
use decisions are the result of sound and comprehensive planning. Specifically, Policy 2.1: Consider
all General Plan goals and policies, including those in the other General Plan elements, in evaluating
proposed development projects for General Plan consistency. Policy 2.2: Maintain consistency
between the Land Use Element, Zoning Ordinances, and other City ordinances, regulations and
standards.
The code amendment will provide updates and modifications that are necessary for consistency with
the City's General Plan and other State laws. Therefore, the project is in conformance with the
General Plan, and there are no conflicts related to the implementation of the code amendment.
c) No Impact. As indicated in response IV f, the City of Tustin is a participating member of the
Natural Community Conservation Plan (NCCP) and is within the Central/Coastal Orange County
28
Code Amendment 13 -001 (CA 13 -001) City of Tustin
region. No physical improvements are currently proposed in conjunction with the amendment to the
zoning code. Impacts related to any future project would be identified and evaluated in conjunction
with the applicable NCCP /NCP plan or any other conservation plan and may be subject to separate
CEQA review. As a result, no impacts are anticipated from the implementation of the code
amendment.

a -d) No Impact. The City of Tustin General Plan Noise Element, and the City's Municipal Code,
Chapter 6 Section 4614, Noise Control (Noise Ordinance) establish noise standards for the City. The
Safety and Noise Element addresses noise with respect to general land use compatibility, while the
Noise Ordinance addresses noise from specific sources. The Noise Ordinance established exterior
noise standards of 55 dBA during the daytime hours between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. and 50 dBA
during the nighttime hours between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. These noise standards are adjusted
further based on the cumulative duration of the noise occurrence, as well as the prevailing ambient
noise levels near the project. Each future individual project will be subject to review on a case -by-
case basis. The proposed project does not include new development and would not expose people
to excessive noise; therefore, no impact will occur as a result of this project.
e -f) No Impact. As indicated in response VII e -f, according to the City's General Plan Circulation
Element, air travel is available from John Wayne Airport in Orange County, approximately five miles
to the south by surface roadway. However, the Tustin Planning Area does not lie within any of John
Way's safety zones. The former MCAS Tustin helicopter station was located in the southern portion of
the City. A Specific Plan for reuse of the base has resulted in the elimination of aviation uses, with the
exception of heliports individually permitted or blimp operations as an interim use. New development
could be subject to review with the Airport Land Use Commission if necessary as well as with the
Noise Ordinance. Any conditions of approval will be incorporated into each individual project where
necessary. No impact will occur as a result of this code amendment.

a) Fire protection. No Impact. The Orange County Fire Authority provides fire protection for the
City of Tustin on a contractual basis. All water mains and fire hydrants must be constructed in
accordance with Orange County guidelines and are subject to approval by the Orange County
Fire Authority. Adherence to these guidelines will ensure that no significant impacts on fire
protection services will occur. Future projects may be subject to individual review by the Fire
Authority as part of the discretionary review process routing process. Therefore, there are no
impacts related to fire protection.
Police protection. No Impact. The Tustin Police Department provides law enforcement services
within the City of Tustin. Routine and scheduled patrolling is done throughout the City and would
continue as they do under existing conditions. It is not anticipated that the proposed parking
ordinance would require additional officers. Rather, it is assumed that the Police Department will
continue to assess and evaluate its crime statistics for problem areas within the City. No impacts
associated with the implementation of the code amendment.
Schools. No Impact. The code amendment will not provide housing that would generate
demand for additional schools. The project will not increase student population necessitating a

Discussion:
Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429) - Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code. The goal of the proposed code
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13 -001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated
terminology, definitions and standards to reflect changes with California State Law; incorporate
standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted; provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a) No Impact. The Tustin Planning Area is located within the jurisdiction of the Regional Quality
Control Board, Santa Ana Region. The code amendment does not include new development. Any
wastewater generated by future projects may be subject to review for impacts on wastewater facilities
as part of the discretionary review process. Typically, any increase in wastewater flows resulting from
an off - street parking project would be minimal, Future development would be required to comply with
local and state regulations to minimize any potential impacts from hazardous materials use. As
discussed in Section VIII. Hydrology and Water Quality, any future project may be required to
40
Code Amendment 13 -001 (CA 13 -001) City of Tustin
implement standard BMPs to control storm water runoff at the project site. Therefore, no impacts are
associated with this project.
b) No Impact. The City of Tustin and Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) provides water and
Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) and IRWD both provide wastewater services within the
Tustin Planning Area. The code amendment does not include new development. The amount of
potable water needed and wastewater generated by a future project be reviewed on a case -by -case
basis for any potential to cause significant environmental impacts and would most likely be nominal.
Minor infrastructure improvements may be required to provide on -site connections from the existing
water and wastewater services to any new project. Since there are no new wastewater treatment
facilities or potable water facilities will be needed as part of this code amendment there are no
impacts.
c) No Impact. As discussed in Response No. XVI a) above, the code amendment will incorporate
text updates. Future projects would be required to comply with local and state regulations to minimize
any potential impacts from expansion of existing facilities. Any future project may be required to
implement standard BMPs to control storm water runoff at the project site and may incorporate
construction and post- construction BMPs in compliance with the NPDES permit and Orange County
Drainage Area Master Plan (DAMP) to eliminate or reduce erosion and polluted runoff. However,
there are no impacts from implementation of the proposed code amendment.
d- e) No Impact. As discussed in Response No. XVI b) above, the code amendment will incorporate
updates. Any increase in water demand from any future project is anticipated to be nominal and
would be considered and mitigated as necessary on a case -by -case basis. No mitigation measures
are required.
f -g) No Impact. CR &R Waste Services provides solid waste collection and disposal services to the
City of Tustin. Any solid waste generated a future project would be diverted to a transfer station and
then to the Bee Canyon /Bowerman Landfill located at 11002 Bee Canyon Access Road in Irvine. The
zoning code amendment does not propose any construction. Furthermore, any future project would
be required to comply with local, state, and federal requirements for integrated waste management
(i.e. recycling) and solid waste disposal. Waste Management provides recycling opportunities to
businesses and institutions, although implementation of recycling programs by businesses and
institutions is voluntary. The project is anticipated to have no impact on landfill capacity.
h) No Impact. The code amendment will incorporate updates and uses previously determined to be
similar to permitted and conditionally permitted uses of the Zoning Code. A Standard Condition of
Approval will be added to individual future projects requiring a Water Quality Management Plan
(WQMP) for the use of non structural and /or structural BMPs including but not limited to tenant
education, activity restrictions, street sweeping, landscaped areas with efficient irrigation and limited
run -off, strategically placed catch basins with fossil filters, and catch basin stenciling. BMPs required
as part of an individual project would not necessarily result in any significant environmental effect. No
impact as part of this project.
Mitigation Measures /Monitoring Required: No additional mitigation measures required.

XVII 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?
b) Does the project have the potential to
achieve short-term environmental
goals to the disadvantage of long-term
environmental goals?
c) Does the project have impacts that are
individually limited, but cumulatively
considerable? ("Cumulatively
considerable" means that the
incremental effects of a project are
considerable when viewed in
connection with the effects of past
projects, the effects of other current
project, and the effects of probable
future projects.)
d) Does the project have environmental
effects which will cause substantial
adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly?

Discussion:
Code Amendment 13-001 (Ordinance No. 1429)— Amendment to Articles 4 and 9 of the Tustin City
Code, to incorporate text amendments to the Tustin City Code. The goal of the proposed code
42
Code Amendment 13-001 (CA 13-001) City of Tustin
amendment is to ensure consistency with the objectives, policies, and general plan land use
programs specified in the Tustin General Plan for the City of Tustin. Code Amendment 13-001 will
provide updates consistent with State law and will help to organize the code using an updated format.
Specifically, the proposal would:
Add new Sections to incorporate and consolidate the site development standards; provide updated
terminology, definitions and standards to reflect changes with California State Law, incorporate
standards for open space for high density housing; incorporate uses that have been determined to be
permitted, provide updates to terms in the definitions and include figures where appropriate; clarify
and add duties of the Zoning Administrator (ZA) for consistency with Council policy and provisions.
a) No Impact. The proposed code amendment will incorporate text modifications to the Tustin
City Code. There is no development proposed as part of this code amendment, therefore, the project
will not have the potential to significantly impact sensitive resources.
b) No Impact. As discussed in response XVIla, the code amendment, as proposed, is consistent
with the goals and objectives of the City's General Plan. Therefore, the project is not expected to
have any cumulatively considerable impacts.
c) No Impact. As demonstrated throughout this Initial Study, the proposed project will not have any
significant effects considered cumulatively considerable.
d) No Impact. As demonstrated throughout this Initial Study, the code amendment does not have
environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or
indirectly.

Article 4 Chapter 3Of the Tustin City Code iS hereby amended 8Sfollows:
1. Section 4310iS hereby added 8Sfollows:
4316 REGULATION OF AREAS FOR COLLECTING AND LOADING
RECYCLABLE MATERIALS
a Purpose
The purpose of this subsection is to establish a comprehensive set of regulations
and guidelines regarding areas for collecting and loading recyclable materials in the
event that the City of Tustin discontinues the collection of commingled solid waste and
recyclable materials for transportation to a mixed-waste processing or material
recoverV facility.
701111111FORMATUO "A
For the purposes of this section, the following words shall have the following
"Development project" means any of the following:
(1) A proiect for which a building permit is required for a new commercial,
industrial or institutional building, or residential building having five (5) o
more living units where solid waste is collected and loaded, or any
residential project where solid waste is collected and loaded in a location
serving five (5) or more living units.
(2) Any new public facility where solid waste is collected and loaded and any
improvements to that part of a public facility used for collecting and
loading solid waste.
(3) Any alteration or alterations to an existing commercial, industrial, or public
facility proiect where the existing floor area of the subject building is
expanded by fifty (50) percent or more.
"Improvement" means a phVsical change which adds to the value of a facility,
prolongs its useful life, or adapts it to new uses, excluding repairs. Repairs keep
facilities in good operating condition, do not materially add to the value of the facilitV,
and do not substantially extend the life of the facility.
"Public facility" means any building, structure, or outdoor recreation area owned
by a local agency.
Ordinance No. 1429 — Exhibit 1
Page 12
"Recycling area (areas for recycling)" means any space allocated for collecting
and loading of recyclable materials
c Applicability
(1) The City of Tustin's contract with its hauler requires the provision of a
recycling bin and/or toter to each business and multifamily account in the
City. In addition, all areas of the City of Tustin that are served by the
collection of commingled solid waste and recyclable materials for
transportation to a mixed-waste processing or material recovery facility
are exempt from the provisions contained herein. Provided that the
material recovery facility meets California state regulations on the
efficiency of recyclable recovery, the City will consider granting an
exemption of a case-by-case basis.
(2) In the event that the aforementioned exemption does not apply, all
development projects for which a building permit is issued on or after
September 1, 1993, shall be required to provide adequate, accessible,
and convenient recycling areas for collecting and loading recyclable
materials.
(3) Where solid waste is collected and loaded in a location serving five (5) or
more residential living units, recycling areas are only required to serve the
needs of the living units which utilize the solid waste collection and
lqqdincLarea,
d Guidelines
The following guidelines shall be used in evaluating all recycling areas
required by this subsection:
(1) An adequate number and capacity of bins or containers to allow for the collection
and loading of recyclable materials generated by the development shall be
located within the recycling areas of development projects. Dimensions of the
recycling area shall accommodate containers consistent with current methods of
collection in the area in which the project is to be located..
(2) Any development that generates large amounts of organic waste such as pre-
and post- consumer food waste and/or landscaping waste shall provide adequate
room in the enclosure to house organic collection containers in addition to trash
and recycling containers.
Ordinance No. 1429 — Exhibit 1
Page 13
(3) The desiqn and construction of recyclinq areas shall be compatible with
surrounding land uses, structures, topography and vegetation. Developments
and public right-of-way adjacent to recycling areas should be adequately
protected against any adverse impacts such as noise, odor, vectors, or glare
through measures including, but not limited to maintaining adequate separation,
fencing, and landscaping.
(4) Recycling areas shall be enclosed by masonry wall with access gates and with a
solid roof or awning which effectively obscures the contents placed within the
enclosure.
(5) Recycling areas shall be secured to prevent the theft of recyclable materials by
unauthorized persons, while allowing authorized persons access for disposal of
materials.
(6) Recycling areas or the bins or containers placed therein shall provide protection
against adverse environmental conditions which might render the collected
materials unmarketable.
(7) Driveways or travel aisles shall be unobstructed and provide access for the City's
franchised solid waste hauler's collection vehicles and shall provide minimum
clearance for vehicles utilized by the City's franchised solid waste hauler.
(8) The design and construction of recycling areas shall meet all applicable zoning
setback and yard requirements and shall not be located in any area required to
be constructed or maintained unencumbered, according to any applicable
federal, state, or local laws relating to fire, access, building, transportation,
circulation, or safety.
(9) Any recycling area(s) shall be located to be convenient to persons who deposit,
collect, and load the recyclable materials. Whenever feasible, areas for collecting
and loading recyclable materials should be adjacent to, or developed in
coniunction with, the solid waste collection areas.
(10) A sign clearly identifying all recycling and solid waste collection and loading
areas and the materials accepted therein should be posted adjacent to all points
of direct access to the recycling area.
(11) All areas for loading and collecting recyclable materials are subject to design
review by the Community Development Department.
