| SUBJECT | Public Hearing for General Plan Amendment S19-01 (Safety Element) |
| APPLICANT | OC Public Works/OC Development Services/Planning |
| PROJECT LOCATION | Unincorporated Areas of the County of Orange |
| PROPOSED PROJECT | Recommend for adoption by the Board of Supervisors the proposed General Plan Amendment S19-01 to the Safety Element to comply with recent State mandated changes regarding fire safety and to make additional technical amendments. |
| ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION | The circumstances of the proposed General Plan Amendment S19-01 (Safety Element) are substantially the same as IS/ND No. IP 22-0133, previously adopted by the Board of Supervisors on September 27, 2022, and Addendum No. 1 adopted by the Board of Supervisors on June 25, 2024, for the Housing-Related Updates to the OC General Plan and Comprehensive Zoning Code. These documents include minor changes or additions necessary, and both documents adequately address the effects of the proposed General Plan Amendment S19-01 (Safety Element). No substantial changes have been made in the project, no substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project is being undertaken, and no new information of substantial importance to the project which was not known or could not have been known when IS/ND No. IP 22-0133 and Addendum No. 1 were adopted have become known; therefore no further environmental review is required. |
