A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING
THAT THE TUSTIN CITY COUNCIL APPROVE AN
AMENDMENT TO THE MCAS TUSTIN SPECIFIC PLAN
(ZONE CHANGE 07-001) TO AMEND VARIOUS
SECTIONS OF THE MCAS TUSTIN SPECIFIC PLAN
The Planning Commission of the City of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
I. The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A. That the Tustin Legacy Community Partners, LLC. (TLCP) proposes
Amendments to the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan (Zone Change 07-001).
Zone Change 07-001 does not "substantially amend" the Specific Plan.
Instead, Zone Change 07-001 generally would allow tandem parking in
residential developments and compact spaces in non-residential
developments and would specify their required dimensions. Zone Change
07-001 would not increase the overall development potential or residential
capacity currently allowed by the MCAS Tustin Specific Plan.
B. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held on said
application on March 27, 2007, by the Planning Commission.
C. Zone Change 07-001 is considered a "project" subject to the terms of the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") (Pub. Resources Code
§21000 et. seq.).
D. That on January 16, 2001, the City of Tustin certified the Program Final
Environmental Impact StatementlEnvironmental Impact Report (FEIS/EIR)
for the reuse and disposal of MCAS Tustin. On April 3, 2006, the City
Council adopted Resolution No. 06-43 approving an Addendum to the
Final Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report for
the Disposal and Reuse of MCAS Tustin. The FEIS/EIR and its
Addendum is a program EIR under the California Environmental Quality
Act ("CEQA"). The FEIS/FEIR and its Addendum considered the potential
environmental impacts associated with development on the former Marine
Corps Air Station, Tustin.
E. The City prepared a comprehensive Environmental Checklist for the
proposed Disposition and Development Agreement Amendment, DA 06-
002 and Zone Change 07-001 for the proposed project, attached hereto as
Exhibit A. The Environmental Checklist concluded that the proposed project
does not result in any new significant environmental impacts, substantial
changes, or a substantial increase in the severity of any previously
identified significant impacts in the FEIS/EIR and Addendum. Moreover, no
Resolution No. 4059
Page 2
new information of substantial importance has surfaced since certification of
the FEIS/EIR and Addendum.
F. Zone Change 07-001 is consistent with the Tustin General Plan. The
Land Use Element includes the following City goals and policies for the
long-term growth, development, and revitalization of Tustin, including the
MCAS Tustin Specific Plan area:
1. Achieve balanced development.
2. Ensure that compatible and complementary development occurs.
3. Improve city-wide urban design.
4. Promote economic expansion and diversification.
5. Implement a reuse plan for MCAS Tustin which maximizes the
appeal of the site as a mixed-use, master-planned development.
II. The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council approve
Ordinance No. 1335 adopting MCAS Tustin Specific Plan Amendment (Zone
Change 07-001), attached hereto as Exhibit A.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Tustin Planning Commission held
