Laguna Niguel City Center

On June 21, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolutions No. 22-1398 conditionally approving Tentative Tract Map No. 19024 for the development of approximately 175,000 square feet of commercial and civic uses and 275 multifamily residential units. The City Council also adopted Resolution No. 22-1396, certifying the Environmental Impact Report EIR No. 22-01 (SCH2019110083), which was prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the CEQA Guidelines, and the City’s CEQA Manual. The Applicant has submitted the Final Tract Map for the Laguna Niguel City Center in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act and Title 9 of the City’s Municipal Code. The proposed actions, including approval of Final Tract Map No. 19024 and the Subdivision Improvement Agreement, are consistent with the project and are a contemplated part of the whole of the action that was evaluated in the previously certified Final EIR. This is to advise that the City of Laguna Niguel (Lead Agency) has approved the above described project on June 2, 2026 and has made the following determinations regarding the above described modified project. The project will not have a more significant effect on the environment than previously identified in the certified Final EIR. A consistency analysis to the certified 2022 FEIR was prepared in full compliance with CEQA, CEQA Guidelines, and the City’s Local CEQA Guidelines, and reflects the independent judgment of the City. The project is subject to the previously identified mitigation measures identified in the previously certified Final EIR, and no additional mitigation measures were made a condition of approval of the Project beyond those identified in the Final EIR. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was previously adopted for the original project in the previously certified Final EIR, and are not required for the project because the project will not have any significant and unavoidable impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified Final EIR. The project does not present new information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known at the time the Final EIR was certified. Findings were made pursuant to the provisions of Public Resources Code Section 21166 and State CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 related to subsequent environmental review.
