SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT FINDINGS. Based on the foregoing facts and findings, the City Council finds as follows: Packet Pg. 90 7.a a. An Addendum was prepared for Master Case 16-007, including the Zone Change to change the zoning designation on the project site from PI to SP. The Addendum was reviewed and approved by resolution by the City Council at their June 14, 2016 meeting. SECTION 3. GENERAL FINDINGS FOR ZONE CHANGE AND AN AMENDMENT TO THE 2008 HENRY MAYO NEWHALL HOSPITAL DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. Based upon the foregoing facts and findings, the City Council finds as follows: a. The proposal is consistent with the General Plan; The proposed Zone Change and amendments to the 2008 HMNH Development Agreement will be consistent with the General Plan as the SP zoning designation would allow for the historical use of the property to continue in accordance with the provisions of the HMNH Specific Plan, as well as the amendment to 2008 HMNH Master Plan approved by the City Council by separate resolution. Appendix C of the HMNH Specific Plan details the consistency of the proposed project with the General Plan, including a detailed discussion of the provisions of various elements of the General Plan, including the Land Use Element, Circulation Element, Noise Element, Open Space and Conservation Element, and Safety Element. Therefore, with the approval of the Zone Change as shown in Exhibit A to the Ordinance, the project will be consistent with the General Plan and the HMNH Specific Plan. b. The proposal is allowed within the applicable underlying zone and complies with all other applicable provisions of this code; The change of the HMNH campus from PI zone to SP zone makes the zoning consistent with the development of the HMNH campus as allowed under the approved HMNH Specific Plan, as well as the amendment to the 2008 HMNH Development Agreement approved by the City Council. With the approval of the HMNH Specific Plan, the project will comply with the zoning and codes in place on the project site. C. The proposal will not endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare, or be materially detrimental or injurious to the improvements, persons, property, or uses in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located; and The creation of the HMNH Specific Plan, along with the associated modifications to the 2008 HMNH Development Agreement, would allow for up to 36,966 square feet of additional building area in the Inpatient Building and a reduction in the previously approved Central Plant by up to 6,400 square feet of building area. The total addition to the building area approved under the 2008 HMNH Master Plan on the project site would be 30,566 square feet and would provide much needed services to the community. The additional building area is for compliance with the newly adopted California Building Standards Code for all hospitals in California, along with an additional Caesarian Section operating room to provide additional services to the Women's Services Unit. The majority of the increase in building area will be limited to the basement and the first and second floors (35,147 square feet). These improvements are for the benefit of the community and will not create a hazard or be detrimental to the surrounding community. Changing the zoning of the project site to SP will allow for the implementation of the improvements discussed above, and is not anticipated to be hazardous or detrimental to the surrounding community. Packet Pg. 91 El 7.a d. The proposal is physically suitable for the site. The factors related to the proposal's physical suitability for the site shall include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. The design, location, shape, size, and operating characteristics are suitable for the proposed use; 2. The highways or streets that provide access to the site are of sufficient width and are improved as necessary to carry the land and quantity of traffic such proposal would generate; 3. Public protection services (e.g., Fire protection, Sheriffprotection, etc) are readily available; and 4. The provision of utilities (e.g., potable water, schools, solid waste collection and disposal, storm drainage, wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal, etc) is adequate to serve the site. Changing the zoning of the project site to SP will allow for the implementation of the HMNH Specific Plan, as well as the modifications to the 2008 HMNH Master Plan and Development Agreement. The improvements permitted under the HMNH Specific Plan include the expansion to the Inpatient Building on a portion of the site previously approved for development of the Inpatient Building. Further, the project will use the existing infrastructure in accordance with the approval of the 2008 HMNH Master Plan and will only require minor grading for the expansion areas. All parking required to facilitate the Inpatient Building has been built as prescribed in the 2008 HMNH Master Plan, and all site access requirements have been constructed. Further, the HMNH Specific Plan and revised 2008 HMNH Master Plan and Development Agreement project is located within an area of the City that has been developed, and is connected with City services, including Fire and Sheriff protection, and is further connected to all necessary utilities to accommodate the proposed amendments to the 2008 HMNH Master Plan and Development Agreement. Therefore, the project site will be able to accommodate the development facilitated by the proposed Zone Change to SP. SECTION 4. ADDITIONAL FINDINGS FOR A MODIFICATION TO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. Based on the foregoing facts and findings for revisions to Development Agreement 06-001, the City Council finds as follows: a. The proposed development agreement complies with City zoning, subdivision, and other applicable ordinances and regulations; The modification to Development Agreement 06-001 containing the addition of 36,966 square feet to the Inpatient Building, the reduction of 6,400 square feet to the Central Plant facility, and relocation of the Helipad, is in conformance with all applicable ordinances and regulations as indicated in Section 3 above. b. The proposed Development Agreement provides for clear and substantial public benefit to the City and/or residents along with a schedule for the benefit; and The proposed HMNH Specific Plan and associated modifications do not reduce any of the clear and substantial benefits that were cited by the City Council in approving Development Agreement 06-001. The additional hospital square footage, including the additional operating room dedicated for Cesarean Section births, is considered an additional level of public benefit. Packet Pg. 92 El C. Any Development Agreement that contains a subdivision shall comply with the provisions of Government Code Section 66473.7. The proposed modifications to Development Agreement 06-001 do not contain a subdivision of land. SECTION 5. The City Council hereby approves this Ordinance to allow for a Zone Change for the HMNH Specific Plan as described herein and shown on the attached Exhibit A, as well as approving the amendments to the 2008 HMNH Development Agreement as shown in Appendix B of the HMNH Specific Plan.
