The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated by reference herein. Section 2. It is the intention of the City Council to vacate Enderle Center Drive shown in Exhibit A, attached. Section 3. It is the intention of the City Council to find that the Enderle Center Drive right-of-way is unnecessary for present or prospective public street purposes. Section 4. It is the intention of the City Council to reserve easements pursuant to Section 8340 of the California Streets and Highways Code. Section 5. The City Council finds that the adoption of a Resolution of Intent to Vacate Enderle Center Drive is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c) because the resolution only initiates a public hearing process and does not constitute approval of the proposed vacation or any related development entitlement. The resolution merely establishes a future public hearing date for the City Council to consider the proposed vacation pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 8320 and does not impose any obligation on the City Council to complete the vacation. In addition, the initiation of the vacation proceedings followed preliminary evaluation of existing roadway usage and consideration of potential impacts to adjacent circulation, which is consistent with CEQA Guidelines Section 15262 relating to feasibility and planning studies. Section 6. The City Council hereby sets a public hearing to be held on September 15, 2026 at 6:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers of the City Council located at 300 Centennial Way, Tustin, California, 92780. At this hearing, all interested persons may introduce evidence and testimony pertaining to the proposed vacation.
