APPLICANT: City of Tustin 300 Centennial Way Tustin, CA 92780 LOCATION: Tustin Legacy (Formerly MCAS Tustin) ENVIRONMENTAL: On January 16, 2001, the City of Tustin certified the Program Final Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (FEIS/EIR) for the reuse and disposal of MCAS, Tustin. On December 6, 2004, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 04-76 approving a supplement to the FEIS/EIR for the extension of Tustin Ranch Road between Walnut Avenue and the future alignment of Valencia North Loop Road. On April 3, 2006, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 06-43 approving an addendum to the FEIS/EIR and, on May 13, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 13-32 approving a second addendum to the FEIS/EIR. The FEIS/EIR, along with its addenda and supplement, is a Program EIR under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The FEIS/EIR, addenda and supplement considered the potential environmental impacts associated with development on the former MCAS, Tustin. A Final Supplemental EIR #2 (FSEIR) for the Tustin Legacy Specific Plan Amendment and General Plan Amendment has been completed. The FSEIR analyzed impacts to eight environmental topical areas: air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, land use and planning, noise, population and housing, public services (schools), transportation and traffic, and utilities and service systems. Pursuant to Public Resources Code and CEQA Guidelines, the changes proposed by the project would not result in any new environmental impacts, or increase the severity of environmental impacts.

Presented by: Justina Willkom, Assistant Director- Planning 6. CONTINUANCE OF CODE AMENDMENT 2017-004 On June 18, 2015, the United States Supreme Court issued a decision in Reed v. Town of Gilbert, AZ, and determined that categorizing signs based on their content violated the First Amendment. In response to this decision, most cities nationwide have reviewed their existing sign codes to determine if they are in violation of the First Amendment. Code Amendment (CA) 2017-004 proposes to amend Article 9 Chapter 4 of the Tustin City Code, related to temporary signs on private property and in the public right-of-way, in accordance with a 2015 United States Supreme Court decision. CA 2017-004 was properly noticed for a June 13, 2017, public hearing. However, based on the complexity of this issue and the potential legal ramifications, a continuance is requested. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission table their consideration of CA 2017-004 to provide sufficient time for staff to conduct additional research and to provide public hearing notification for a re-noticed public hearing to those most potentially impacted by the proposed CA.

The current property owners, Mr. and Mrs. Norman Alas, are nominating the property at 148 North B Street for addition to the Tustin Historic Register Plaque Program.
