A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN JUAN
CAPISTRANO, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING FLOODPLAIN LAND USE
PERMIT (FP) 18-001 AND TENTATIVE TRACT MAP (TTM) 20-001 FOR THE
GANAHL LUMBER PROJECT LOCATED ON THE LOWER ROSAN
PROPERTY AT 25865 STONEHILL DRIVE, CONTINGENT ON
CERTIFICATION OF THE FINAL EIR FOR THE PROJECT
WHEREAS, Ganahl Lumber Co. (the "Applicant") is proposing the Ganahl
Lumber Project ("Project"), an approximately 17 -acre commercial project at 25865
Stonehill Drive. The Project entitlements required for the Ganahl Lumber development
include, among other approvals, Floodplain Land Use Permit (FP) 18-001 and Tentative
Tract Map (TTM) 20-001; and
WHEREAS, Land Use Code Section 9-4.203 requires a tentative tract map
for all subdivisions creating five or more lots. The proposed map entails subdividing the
approximately 17 -acre site into five (5) lots ranging in size from approximately 29,621
(0.68 acres) to 462,172 (10.61 acres) square feet. The lots have been designed to
accommodate the proposed and future uses on the site; and
WHEREAS, before the City Council may approve a tentative tract map, it
must make the findings set forth in Land Use Code Section 9-4.223; and
WHEREAS, before the City Council may approve a floodplain permit
application, it must make the findings set forth in Land Use Code Section 9-2.321,
subsection (e); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the tentative tract map and
floodplain land use permit applications and has recommended approval because the
corresponding findings can be made; and
WHEREAS, the City prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Report
("DEIR") that analyzed the proposed Project's environmental impacts in compliance with
the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). The DEIR was made
available to the public for review and comment for 45 days between January 6, 2020, and
February 19, 2020. During and following the close of the public review period, the City
received numerous comment letters and e-mails on the project. For those letters and e-
mails that raised CEQA-related issues, the City has prepared Response to Comments as
required by CEQA, which are included in the Final EIR. The Final EIR determined that
the proposed Project could result in potentially significant and unavoidable impacts to
traffic as a result of the Project. The Project would result in potentially significant impacts
at two roadway segments: Stonehill Drive between Camino Capistrano and Project
driveway and between Project driveway and Del Obispo Street. In addition, the proposed
Project would also result in potentially significant impacts at the intersection of Del Obispo
Street/Stonehill Drive. Further, the impacted intersection is located within the City of Dana
6/2/2020
Point, and mitigation cannot be enforced within another jurisdiction outside of the City of
San Juan Capistrano. No feasible mitigation is available to reduce the impacts on these
two roadway segments and intersection. The Final EIR demonstrates that all other
environmental impacts can be reduced to a level of less than significant
through the incorporation of mitigation measures. The Draft EIR and Final
EIR for the project are available on the City's website at:
http://sanjuancapistrano.org/Departments/Development -Services/Planning. The City
Council certified the Final EIR prior to consideration of this resolution; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has carefully considered the application, all
the information submitted by the Applicant, the public, and city staff in connection with the
Project, including the agenda report prepared by staff for these and other Project
approvals.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the recitals above are
incorporated herein by reference as findings of the City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that, after careful
consideration of the agenda report, including its detailed discussion of these findings, and
all the other evidence that was presented in connection with this Project, the City Council
of the City of San Juan Capistrano does hereby make the following findings as required
by Section 9-4.223, Findings for approval of tentative maps, of Title 9, Land Use Code of
the City of San Juan Capistrano:
(1) The proposed map is consistent with the General Plan. There is no applicable
specific plan or comprehensive development plan.
(2) The design or improvement of the proposed subdivision is consistent with the
General Plan. There is no applicable specific plan or comprehensive development
plan.
(3) The site is physically suitable for the type of development.

(5) The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements is not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat.
(6) The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with
easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property
within the proposed subdivision.

Code of the City of San Juan Capistrano:
