THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CALIFORNIA,
DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The City Council finds that:
The City's Environmental Review Board has reviewed
the subject zone change application, has determined
that the project will have a significant effect on
the environment, has required the preparation of
an Environmental Impact Report, and has otherwise
carried out all requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Act. (The environmental
impact report prepared for the project has been
certified as adequate.)
The development concepts regarding land use,
density and general location are consistent with
the applicable goals, policies, and objectives of
the General Plan. This finding is based upon the
following considerations:
a. The general location of the proposed land
uses is consistent with the General Plan
Composite Map.
b. The density of development is generally
consistent with the General Plan designations
shown on the composite map.
General Plan Amendment 78-1 designated a
public/institutional site on Window Hill;
however, it was noted in the amendment text
that the public/institutional use could be
located anywhere within the project area.
The applicant has proposed to locate the site
in the "Mesa" area outside the limits of the
former landfill site. In response to this
proposed change in location, an analysis has
been prepared in the EIR which addresses the
feasibility of the proposed site.
General Plan Amendment 78-1 designated the
general landform constraints to be used in
the stabilization of Window Hill. In order
to further evaluate the grading concepts and
necessary refinements in techniques, the
Comprehensive Development Plan includes a
Landform Control District. The inclusion of
the Landform Control District is designed to
insure that the intent and purpose of the
General Plan Amendment will be satisfied upon
implementation.
-1-
General Plan Amendment 78-1 provided a general
alignment for the extension of Valle Road
around the McCracken Hill knoll immediately
adjacent to Interstate 5. During development
of the conceptual development plans, staff
and the applicants have reviewed several
alternate alignments in order to avoid major
environmental impacts. The results of these
studies indicate that the preferred alignment
using a portion of the existing roadway
serving McCracken Hill and around the top of
the knoll is the most environmentally sensitive
design and consistent with the general intent
of the General Plan.
General Plan Amendment 78-1 provided for a
bikeway link and equestrian/hiking trails
between Camino Las Ramblas and San Juan
Creek Road. The general alignment followed
the roadway design for the extension of
Valle Road. Based upon recognized design
constraints regarding percent grades, the
alignment has been modified to go through
the "Valley" portion of the project connecting
with the public/institutional site on the
"Mesa." The same trail head connecting
points will be maintained at Camino Las
Ramblas and San Juan Creek Road. ,
The development of the property under the proposed
zoning will conform to the development standards
and other applicable provisions of Ordinance No.
398 and the Forster Canyon Planned Community
Comprehensive Development Plan.
4. A duly -noticed public hearing has been held to
receive and consider public testimony regarding
the proposed zone change.
SECTION 2. ZONE CHANGE.
Based on the findings set forth in Section 1, preceding,
the City Council ordains that the official zoning heretofore
adopted for Assessor's Parcel Nos. 124-110-1, 124-110-3,
124-110-16, 124-110-49, 124-110-51 and 124-110-63, 124-120-4,

675-081-13 on February 20, 1980, by Ordinance No. 398 be changed
