BACKGROUND
In October 1995, the County of Orange submitted a proposal to the City of Tustin, acting
as the Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) for the disposal of the Marine Corps Air
Station (MCAS) Tustin. In October 1996, the Tustin City Council approved and adopted
the Reuse Plan for former MCAS Tustin.
On January 16, 2001, the City of Tustin adopted. a. General Plan land use designation
(MCAS Tustin Specific Plan) for that portion of the former MCAS Tustin within the City
Zoning Administrator

of Tustin (Tustin Legacy). The Specific Plan was adopted by the City Council on
February 3, 2003 (Ordinance 1257), establishing the zoning designation, development
standards, and entitlement framework for future development of Tustin Legacy within
the City of Tustin. The original Specific Plan allowed for the construction of an animal
care facility in Neighborhood C within Planning Area 6.
In October 2011 , Ordinance No. 1406 was approved by the City Council for the MCAS
Tustin Specific Plan Minor Amendment (SPA) 1 1-003. The Specific Plan Amendment
implemented minor text changes to the Specific Plan to clarify existing regulations and
more specifically accommodate a land exchange between South Orange County
Community College District (SOCCCD) and the County of Orange to allow for an animal
care facility as an allowed use within Neighborhood A.
On May 17, 2016, a memorandum of lease was entered into and signed between the
SOCCCD and the County of Orange for the 10 acre parcel. The County leases the site
from the District and a portion from the United States Navy until a full transfer of the site
from the Department of the Navy occurs.
DISCUSSION
Site and Surroundings
The project site is generally located southwest corner of Armstrong Avenue and Victory
Road within Planning Area 1-1 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan (Attachment A — Location
Map). The project site is a 10 acre site that is currently vacant and unimproved with
structures but contains some existing paved areas that were formally used as a portion of
the tarmac of the MCAS Tustin base. The area to the south is improved with the Rancho
Santiago College Sheriff's Training Academy. Areas to the north, west and east are
currently vacant.

Concept Plan
A Concept Plan approval is required for each Planning Area of the MCAS Tustin
Specific Plan concurrent with a new development proposal. The purpose of the concept
plan is to ensure that:
• The necessary linkages are provided between the development project
and the Planning Area/Neighborhood in which it is located;
• The integrity of the Specific Plan and purpose and intent of each
Neighborhood is maintained; and,
Other requirements that are not included in the Specific Plan are identified
and satisfied.
The proposed project provides for continuity of vehicular, pedestrian, and infrastructure
facilities and linkages; incorporates quality architectural and landscape design and
urban design features such as streetscape and landscape concepts, site design, and
architectural design; incorporates the requirements of the Specific Plan and other
requirements such as the California Building Code and Construction Standards for
Private Improvements. As conditioned, the proposed project would meet the intent and
purposes as set forth in the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan.
Design Review
The OC Animal Care Facility will include a two-story, administrative support and
services building and eight (8) stand-alone kennel pavilions/structures; six (6) large
kennel pavilions, each at 2,326 square feet and two (2) smaller pavilions, each at 1,560
square feet (non-public). Other project components include a small corral area,
ancillary service and dog exercise yards, and landscaping. All ,uses are served with a
total of 261 on-site parking spaces.
The main administrative building is designed in a contemporary architectural style with a
flat roof, vertical accent walls on the north and west elevations and large glass windows.
The architecture of the project provides for quality building design and materials. The
exterior walls of main administrative building are proposed to be concrete tilt-up walls
panels with anodized aluminum metal panels and windows. The roof will consist of a
corrugated metal in a bright silver finish and the same material will be utilized to screen
the mechanical equipment on the roof. The proposed exterior color scheme consists of
beige colors such as Water Mist and Flaxen. The site includes two on-site parking.
areas for the public and staff, a paved landscaped promenade connecting the main
administrative building and kennel pavilions with the staff parking area, landscaped
areas interspersed throughout the site for animal-related purposes, CMU block walls for
screening and sound attenuation and landscape planter areas along Victory Road and
Armstrong Avenue. A private road/drive aisle along the western boundary of the site
will also be installed as part of the project with coordinating landscape planter areas that
will create landscape consistency for the site. The proposed project and associated
landscaping will be consistent with the urban design objective of the Specific Plan
Zoning Administrator
July 27, 2016
CP 2016-002 and DR 2016-009
Page 7
The property will be secured with a 6-foot high decorative tubular steel fence along
portions of Victory Road street frontage and along the entire Armstrong Avenue street
frontage. Decorative pilasters will be incorporated into the steel fencing at different
points where gates are proposed or at corners or angled areas. The decorative steel
fence will also continue along the southern property line, providing separation from the
Orange County Sheriff's Department Regional Training Academy, No fencing is
proposed along the private road/drive aisle. Landscape planter areas, which will provide
additional screening of the steel fencing is proposed within the required 20-foot landscape
setback along both Victory Road and Armstrong Avenue. Complementary landscaping is
also proposed along the private road/drive aisle.
An 8-foot high CMU block wall will surround the eight (8) dog kennel pavilions and service
area. To soften the look of the wall, a combination of trees and shrubs is proposed in front
of and behind the wall.
VIEW-SOUTH WEST CORNER
Section 3.3.2 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan contains specific criteria for the
development of an animal care facility which includes a minimum 500-foot distance from
any residential or residentially-zoned property, visual screening of outdoor storage and
service areas, noise control of animal containment areas, odor control and site plan and
architectural design of buildings pursuant to Section 4.2.4 of the MCAS Tustin Specific
Zoning Administrator

CP 2016-002 and DR 2016-009
Page 8
Plan (i.e. requirement of the submittal of a site plan and requisite design review). The
project site has been designed to meet the 500 foot distance requirements.
Noise
The proposed project will include yard areas for exercise that will face Victory Road.
These areas will be surrounded by an 8-foot high concrete (CMU) block wall which will
serve as a solid noise barrier to the immediate area. A continuous 4-foot high CMU block
or "bark" wall is also proposed between each kennel pavilion which will further help to
alleviate noise level impacts. Ceiling sound attenuation panels will also be incorporated
into the kennel design which will absorb echoes and reverb caused by barking dogs. The
mass of the main administrative building and its configuration, orientation and juxtaposition
to other site components will further assist in mitigating noise.
Odor
The proposed project will also address odor control within the facility by minimizing
animal housing groups to facilitate convenient and efficient bleaning & care, utilizing
material finishes throughout buildings that resist odor retention and are easily cleanable,
circulate all animal care environments with filtered air through efficient HVAC systems,
maintenance of a rigorous staff cleaning schedule with daily cleanings and daily
removal of dog waste at the source.
ENVIRONMENTAL
The proposed project is analyzed in Final EIS/EIR for the Reuse and Disposal of the
MCAS Tustin property, certified by the City of Tustin (City Council) on January 16, 2001,
and Ordinance No.1406 approved by the City Council on October 18, 2011 for the
MCAS Tustin Specific Plan minor amendment (SPA) 11-003. The City of Tustin's minor
amendment supported the then-proposed land exchange between the South Orange
County Community College District (SOCCCD) and the County of Orange to
accommodate the animal care facility. The Specific Plan Amendment states that the
land use changes will not be effective until a land exchange between the South Orange
-County Community College District and the County of Orange is completed. This land
exchange is memorialized in an agreement between the County and the College district.
The SPA 11-003 modified planning area boundaries/designations in Neighborhood A of
Planning Area 1 and added the subject animal care center as an allowable use within
the Neighborhood A. Prior to minor amendment SPA 11-003, the animal care center
was analyzed as an allowable use in the adjacent Neighborhood C. The minor
amendment concluded that there is no possibility that the minor modifications and
transfer of the animal care center use as an allowable use in Neighborhood A, would
have a significant effect on the environment since it would not increase the overall
development potential or residential capacity currently allowed by the adopted MCAS
Tustin Specific Plan. The approved document requires the following: 'When individual
discretionary activities within the Specific Plan are proposed, the lead agency is
Zoning Administrator
July 27, 2016
GP 2016-002 and DR 2016-009
Page 9
required to examine the individual activities to determine if their effects were fully
analyzed in the FEIS/EIR". According to the approved minor amendment, development
of animal care center in Neighborhood A will not change the analysis contained in the
Final EISIEIR for the Reuse and Disposal of the MCAS Tustin property. There are no
new or increased significant adverse effects, project-specific impacts, or cumulative
impacts with regard to land use and planning that were identified as a result of the
adoption and implementation of the minor amendment and the addition of animal care
center as an allowable use in Neighborhood A. A checklist and evaluation of
environmental impacts has been prepared confirming this determination for the
proposed project.

SECTION D
EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
1630 VICTORY ROAD
OC ANIMAL CARE FACILITY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project applicant has submitted an application to construct a new animal care facility on approximately
10-acre site within the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan area of the City of Tustin. The project site is located at
1630 Victory Road and is designated as MCAS Tustin Specific Plan by the General Plan Land Use element
and is within the Planning Area 14 of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. The project will involve the
following: '
• Conceptual Plan 2016-002—Overall site layout and design to ensure that the integrity, purpose and
intent of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan are maintained and satisfied.
• Design Review 2016-009 — Site and building design for the construction of a new animal care
facility consisting of a main administrative building (49,584 square feet) and eight (8) kennel
pavilions(17,076 square feet).
The project site is generally located at the southwest corner of Armstrong Avenue and Victory Road within
Planning Area 1-I of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. The project site is a 10 acre site that is currently vacant
and unimproved with structures but contains some existing paved areas that were formally used as a portion
of the tarmac of the WAS Tustin base. The area to the south is improved with the Rancho Santiago
College Sheriffs Training Academy. Areas to the north,west and east are currently vacant.
The project includes the construction of a new Orange County (OC) Animal Care Facility which includes
a free standing, two-story administrative support and services building with approximately 49,584 square
feet and a state-of-the-art animal holding facility with approximately 17,076 square feet.
The main administrative support and services building will include: a customer care center; a state-of-the-
art veterinary care facility with examination and observation spaces, a learning/training center,
administrative offices including animal intake and animal control areas, and necessary warehouse storage
space. The animal holding facility will be located to the east of the main administrative building and
consist of 8 stand-alone indoor-outdoor kennel pavilions. Other facilities include large kitchens for
preparing animal meals, "get acquainted" rooms for cats, and outdoor yards for adopters to get to know
dogs and other animals up for adoption.
Major Components of the 10-acre site include:
• Main Administrative Support and Services building(two-story building)
• Eight Dog Kennel Pavilions
• Small Corral area for various livestock,poultry and wildlife
• Containment Yard around the Field Services Sally Port
• Separate Public and Staff Parking areas
The OC Animal Care Facility will have the capacity to accommodate 240 dogs, 220 cats, 40 rabbits, a
small number of exotics such as small mammals, birds, reptiles, fish as well as a small number of
livestock,poultry and wildlife.
The OC Facility will be a Municipal Animal Shelter and control agency serving fourteen (14) cities in
Orange County. The facility will provide temporary housing for a variety of animals and working spaces
for the organization's five departments including Community Outreach, Customer Services, Clinical
(veterinary Care) Services, Field Services and Kennel Services. The OC Animal Care Facility will have

one hundred forty one (141) employees and operate on a 24-hour basis, 7 days per week, 365 days a year
with the majority of the staff on site daily from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. The facility is open to the public
daily from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm and on Wednesdays from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm.
The proposed project is analyzed in Final EIS/EIR for the Reuse and Disposal of the MCAS Tustin
property, certified by the City Council on January 16,2001 and Ordinance No. 1406 approved by the City
Council on October 18, 2011 for the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan Minor Amendment (SPA) 11-003.
The Minor Amendment supported the then-proposed land exchange between the-South Orange County
Community College District (SOCCCD) and the County of Orange. The Specific Plan Amendment states
that the land use changes will not be effective until a land exchange between the South Orange County
Community College District and the County of Orange is completed. This land exchange is
memorialized in an agreement between the County and the district.
SPA 11-003 modified planning area boundaries/designations in Neighborhood A of Planning Area 1 and
added the subject animal care center as an allowable use within Neighborhood A. Prior to the Minor
Amendment and the approved SPA 11-003, the animal care center was analyzed as an allowable use in
the adjacent Neighborhood C. The City approved SPA 11.003, which concluded that there is no
possibility that the minor amendment and transfer of the animal care center use as an allowable use in
Neighborhood A, would have a significant effect on the environment since it would not increase the
overall development potential or residential capacity currently allowed by the adopted MCAS Tustin
Specific Plan. The approved document requires the following: "When individual discretionary activities
within the Specific Plan are proposed, the lead agency is required to examine the.'individual activities to
determine if their effects were fully analyzed in the FEISIEIR". According to the approved SPA 11-003,
development of an animal care center in Neighborhood A will not change the analysis contained in the
Final EIS/EIR for the Reuse and Disposal of the MCAS Tustin property.
This Initial Study is prepared to evaluate the environmental impacts of the proposed project with respect to
the following categories:
1. AESTHETICS
Items a, b, c&d- "No Impact".
The proposed project would involve the construction of new animal care facility that would include a
two-story, main administrative building comprised of 49,584 square feet and eight (8) kennel
pavilions to house the animals consisting of 17,076 square feet. Together;the structures will
comprise.the OC Animal Care Facility.
The Specific Plan Amendment approved in 2011 (SPA 11-003) modified area
boundaries/designations in Neighborhood A of Planning Area 1 and added the subject animal care
use as an allowable use within Neighborhood A/Planning Area 14. At the time of SPA 11-003,
analysis was completed which concluded that the modifications would not change the future
development condition that was analyzed in the FEIS/EIR and there would be no change to
development intensity, building height restrictions, setbacks, signage, and other development
standards--including aesthetics and visual quality. There is no new information relative to aesthetics
and visual quality that was not it existence at the time the FEIS/EIR was prepared. The FEIS/EIR
analyzed a total of 1,412,651 square feet of non-residential uses, which included an animal care
facility in Neighborhood C. With the approval of SPA 11-003,the animal care use was added as an
allowable use within Neighborhood A/Planning Area 1-I. The FEIS/EIR anticipated that former
MCAS buildings located on the project site would be demolished and replaced with new
construction. Visual changes in the project vicinity have already occurred with the development of
the ATEP Phase 1, the Rancho Santiago Community College District's Sheriff's Training Academy,
Attachment A
Evaluation of Environmental Impacts
1630 Victory Road
Page 3
the County's Abused Children's Shelter and residential neighborhoods north and south of Valencia
Avenue,as well as the demolition of buildings on the ATEP site.
As a result, the proposed project and its implementation are consistent with the FEIS/EIR. The
proposed project will not result in new or increased significant adverse project-specific or cumulative
impacts with regard to aesthetics and visual quality that were not previously analyzed in the
FEIS/EIR it Supplemental and Addendums. No new mitigation measures are required in relation to
impacts to aesthetics and visual quality including any scenic vistas and light&glare.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: No new impacts nor substantially more severe aesthetic impacts
would result from the implementation of the proposed project; therefore, no new or revised
mitigation measures are required for aesthetics and visual quality. No refinements related to the
proposed project are necessary to the FEIS/EIR mitigation measures and no new mitigation measures

II, AGRICULTURE RESOURCES
Items a,A c,d&e- "No Impact'
The project site is a 10 acre site that is currently vacant and unimproved with structures but contains
some existing paved areas that were formally used as a portion of the tarmac of the MCAS Tustin
base. The project site is within an established Planning Area(PA 1-I) of the MCAS Tustin Specific
Plan which is designated as an Education Village and allows for a range of public-serving uses,
including an animal care facility.There were no agricultural uses on the subject property in the recent
past and there are currently no agricultural uses on the site.
The proposed project would involve the construction of new animal care facility that would include a
two-story, main administrative building comprised of 49,584 square feet and eight (8) kennel
pavilions to house the animals consisting of 17,076 square feet. Together, the structures will
comprise the OC Animal Care Facility.
The proposed project would not cause impacts to agriculture and forest resources that were not
previously analyzed in the FEIS/EIR, Addendum and Supplement. There continue to be no
agricultural resources on the property. There are no new or increased significant adverse project-
specific or cumulative impacts with regard to agricultural resources that are identified as a result of
implementation of the proposed project. The impacts of the implementation of the MCAS Tustin
Specific Plan are already analyzed in the FEIS/EIR. There is no new information relative to
agricultural resources that was not in existence at the time the FEIS/EIR was prepared. As a result,
no new mitigation measures are required in relation to impacts to agricultural resources.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: In certifying the FEIS/EIR, the City Council adopted Findings of
Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations on January 16, 2001 concluding that impacts to
agricultural resources on other areas of MCAS Tustin were unavoidable(Resolution No. 00-90). No
mitigation is required.

III. AIR QUALITY
Items b c d&e - "No Impact'
The proposed project would not cause impacts to air quality that were not previously analyzed in the
FEIS/EIR, Addendum and Supplement. The site is currently vacant and unimproved with any
buildings or structures. The proposed project would involve the construction of new animal care
facility that would include a two-story, main administrative building comprised of 49,584 square feet
and eight (8) kennel pavilions to house the animals consisting of 17,076 square feet. Together, the
structures will comprise the OC Animal Care Facility.
There are no new or increased significant adverse project-specific or cumulative impacts with regard
to air quality that would occur as a result of implementation of the proposed project that was not
previously analyzed in the FEIS/EIR. The FEIS/EIR analyzed a total of 1,412,651 square feet of
non-residential uses, which included an animal care facility in Neighborhood C. With the approval
of SPA 11-003,the animal care use was added as an allowable use within Neighborhood A/Planning
Area 1-1. Both short-term and long-term air quality impacts on the environment were analyzed in
the FEIS/EIR which included the construction of an animal care facility.
There is no new information relative to air quality.that was not in existence at the time the FEIS/EIR
was prepared. Therefore, the proposed project and its implementation are consistent with that
previously analyzed in the FEIS/EIR, Addendum and Supplement. As a result, no new mitigation
measures are required in relation to impacts to air quality.
The Tustin City Council adopted Findings and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the
FEIS/EIR on January 2001 to address significant unavoidable short-term (construction), long-term
(operational), and cumulative air quality impacts for the MCAS Tustin Specific.Plan. The City also
adopted mitigation measures to reduce these unavoidable adverse impacts.

V. CULTURAL RESOURCES
Item a,b,_c&d- "No Impact'
The proposed project will not cause impacts to cultural resources that were not previously analyzed
in the FEIS/EIR, Addendum and Supplement. The proposed project proposes to develop a new
animal care facility that will be comprised of a main administrative building with approximately
49,584 square feet along with eight (8) kennel pavilions to house animals. This project was
previously analyzed in the FEIS/EIR; only the precise location of the actual use changed with the
approval of SPA11-003. The proposed project would not cause impacts to cultural resources. The
impacts of the MCAS Specific Plan on cultural resources, including any that may be present on the
subject site,were considered in the FEIS/EIR.
It is possible that previously unidentified buried archeological or paleontological resources within the
subject site could be discovered during grading and other construction activities Consequently,
future development is required to perform construction monitoring for cultural and paleontological
resources to reduce potential impacts to these resources to a level of insignificance as found in the
FEIS/EIR. The project has been conditioned to require the County to hire a paleontologist and
archeologist.

VIII. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY
Items a-i- "No Impact":
The proposed project site is located on a relatively flat site, is vacant and currently unimproved with
any buildings or structures. The proposed project includes the construction of a new animal care
facility that includes a main administrative building that consists of approximately 49,584 square feet
and eight (8) kennel pavilions that consist of approximately 17,076 square feet. The proposed
project would not cause direct impacts to hydrology and water quality.The approval of SPA 11-003
allowed for public institutional uses, including an animal care center in Planning Area 1-
I/Neighborhood A from the previously permitted location of the use in Neighborhood C (across the
street from Neighborhood A). There would be no change to development intensity, building height
restrictions, setbacks signage and other development standards in conjunction with the proposed
project. There are no new or increased significant adverse project-specific or cumulative impacts
with regard to hydrology/water quality that was not in existence at the time the FEIS/EIR was
prepared. The proposed project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts to
water quality than what was previously identified in the FEIS/EIR. Therefore the proposed
project is consistent with the FEIS/EIR. As a result, no new mitigation measures are required in
relation to impacts to hydrology/water quality.
As concluded in the FEUVEIR, preparation of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for
future development projects within the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan area in compliance with all
applicable regulatory standards would reduce water quality impacts from development activities to a
level of insignificance. The proposed project would be entitled with a condition of approval that
would require a site specific Water Quality Management Plan(WQMP) prior to issuance of grading
permits.
Mitigation/Monitoring Required: No mitigation is required through implementation and operations
management of the best management practices and recommendations contained within the final
approved Water Quality Management Plan for the project.

IX. LAND USE&PLANNING.
Items a,b&c - "No Impact':
The subject property is currently vacant and is unimproved with buildings or structures. The
property is located within Neighborhood A of the WAS Tustin Specific Plan. The property is
zoned as Planning Area I-I/Education Village and surrounded on the north, south and west sides by
other educational/institutional uses. Property to the east is designated as Planning Area
8/Community Core which allows for development of a mix of uses—either residential or commercial
or a combination thereof.
The proposed project includes the construction of a new animal care facility that includes a main
administrative building that consists of approximately 49,584 square feet and eight (8) kennel
pavilions that consist of approximately 17,076 square feet. The proposed project would not cause
direct impacts to land use and planning.The approval of SPA 11-003 allowed for public institutional
uses, including an animal care center in Planning Area 1-1/Neighborhood A from the previously
permitted location of the use in Neighborhood C (across the street from Neighborhood A). There
would be no change to development intensity,building height restrictions,setbacks signage and other
development standards in conjunction with the proposed project. There are no new or increased
significant adverse project-specific or cumulative impacts with regard to land use and planning that.
was not in existence at the time the FEIS/EIR was prepared. The proposed project would not result
in new or substantially more severe impacts to land use than what was previously identified in the
FEIS/EIR. Therefore the proposed project is consistent with the FEIS/EIR. As a result,no new
mitigation measures are required in relation to impacts to land use planning.
Approval of SPA 11-003 did not substantially-change the WAS Tustin Specific Plan. By merely
allowing certain uses to be located in different sub-planning areas within Neighborhood A and not
increasing development intensities or introducing incompatible uses, implementation of the proposed
project would not physically divide any Specific Plan land use (no community exists in the area of
the proposed project), conflict with the Specific Plan, or conflict with any habitat conservation plan
or natural community conservation plan.

XI. NOISE
Items a,b c d e and f—"No Impact'
The ambient noise environment of the project site is influenced by the surrounding roadways, the
RSCCD's Sheriff s Training Academy, a rail line located north of Edinger Avenue,and construction
and remediation activities on surrounding parcels.
Implementation of the proposed project will not cause any direct impacts to noise. The proposed
project will include yard areas for exercise that will face Victory Road. These areas will be
surrounded by an 8-foot high concrete(CMU) block wall which will serve as a solid noise barrier to
the immediate area. A continuous 4-foot high CMU block or"bark" wall is also proposed between
each kennel pavilion which will further help to alleviate noise level impacts. Ceiling sound
attenuation panels will also be incorporated into the kennel design which will absorb echoes and
reverb caused by barking dogs. The mass of the main administrative building and its configuration,
orientation and juxtaposition to other site components will further assist in mitigating noise.
The approval of SPA 11-003 allowed for public institutional.uses, including an animal care center in
Planning Area 1-I/Neighborhood A from the previously permitted location of the use in
Neighborhood C (across the street from Neighborhood A). There would be no change to
development intensity, building height restrictions, setbacks signage and other development
standards in conjunction with the proposed project. There are no new or increased significant

Victory Road (formally Bell Avenue) currently terminates at Red Hill; when required under the
Specific Plan provisions,it will be extended from Red Hill Avenue to Armstrong Avenue.
No roadway improvements are proposed or required for the development. The approval of SPA II-
003 allowed for public institutional uses, including an animal care center in Planning Area 1-
I/Neighborhood A from the previously permitted location of the use in Neighborhood C (across the
street from Neighborhood A). There would be no change to development intensity, building height
restrictions, setbacks, signage and other development standards in conjunction with the proposed
project.
A traffic evaluation technical memorandum in May 2011 was prepared by Austin-Foust Associates
(Austin-Foust) in connection with SPA 11-003 which evaluated the proposed impacts of the Specific
Plan Amendment and land use swap from Neighborhood C to Neighborhood A, which included the
relocation and construction of the animal care facility in Planning Area 1-I/Neighborhood A. The
technical memorandum concluded that there are no net changes to the land use intensity and resulting
trip generation. There are no new or increased significant adverse project-specific or cumulative
impacts with regard to transportation/traffic that was not in existence at the time the FEIS/EIR was
prepared. The proposed project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts to

The proposed project includes the construction of a new animal care facility that consists of a main
administrative building with approximately 49,584 square feet and eight (8) kennel pavilions that
consist of approximately 17,076 square feet. The project meets the applicable development
standards for Planning Area 1-I/Education Village of the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan. The
FEIS/EIR previously considered all environmental impacts associated with the implementation of the
Specific Plan. The approval of SPA 11-003 allowed for the modification of Planning Area
boundaries and designations, the creation of two new sub-Planning Areas, and an allowance for
public institutional uses, including an animal care facility in Neighborhood A (across thestreet on
Armstrong from the presently permitted location for such uses in Neighborhood Q. There would be
no change to development intensity, building height restrictions, setbacks, signage and other
development standards in conjunction with the proposed project. The project would not`cause
unmitigated environmental effects that were not already examined in the FEIS/EIR; there are no new
mitigation measures required;and there are no new significant adverse project-specific or cumulative
impacts in any environmental areas that were identified, nor would any project-specific or
cumulative impacts in any environmental areas be made worse as a result of the proposed project.
All feasible mitigation measures identified in the FEIS/EIR will be incorporated into subsequent
actions that the SOCCCD and County commit to fully implement. Therefore the proposed project
does not create any impacts that have not previously been addressed by the FEIS/EIR.
