The Brea General Plan is organized into six sections identified as chapters, each of which includes one of the state mandated elements of a General Plan, consistent with, and pursuant to, Section of the California Government Code. The following report is organized into the chapters from the General Plan. The first appendix of the General Plan, Appendix A: Implementation Guide (attached) provides the overall direction and the specific Policies that are to be carried out to fulfill the City Council adopted Goals intended to be reached as a result of the General Plan Update. This appendix should be referenced for any specific information regarding goals and policies cited in this report. Land Use The Downtown Collection, a mixed-use development consisting of 19 townhomes, with seven live-work units, eight duplexes, and three single-family residences was underway in This mixed-use project is in accordance with General Plan policy CD-6.2 to encourage ownership housing along South Brea Boulevard, and will also incorporate three affordable units at the moderate level on-site. The Stone Valley condominium project, which consists of 22 affordable units at the moderate level, was also completed and occupied in The City facilitated the processing of financial assistance for the Bonterra Affordable Apartments, being developed by Jamboree Housing. This project includes 94 units for extremely low and low income households as part of the Blackstone. The initial construction of the first four casita units at Capriana, a Continuing Care Retirement, were also underway signaling the start of the La Floresta project which its entitled for 1,357 new residential units.

4 Page 2 House, Mother s Market, and quick food eateries: Chick-fil-A, Panera Bread, Z Pizza, and Chipotle that are in support of General Plan goals CD-23, CD-24, and CD-26. Circulation Goal CD-11 calls for the City to provide a safe and efficient circulation system that meets the needs of the community. During 2011, the City purchased and installed a Traffic Signal Master Computer System to manage and monitor traffic signals throughout the City, upgraded traffic signal controllers and synchronized eleven intersections along Birch Street. Public transportation efforts, as called for in Goal CD-12, have continued to be implemented. The City completed intersection widening and traffic signal modifications at Imperial Highway and Associated Road as part of the overall Imperial Highway Smart Street Project. To fulfill Goals of the Circulation Element, staff has worked with Orange County Transportation Association (OCTA) as called for in various General Plan Policies. With financial support of OCTA and Older American Act, the Senior Mobility program has continued to transport senior citizens to the Senior Center to participate in the Senior Nutrition program, and operates an on demand Shuttle service for grocery, doctor, and pharmacy trips. Goal CD-13 calls for the City to provide for an extensive, integrated, and safe bicycle, hiking, and pedestrian network throughout the community, and make Brea a pedestrian-friendly community. The City upgraded video detection systems at State College Boulevard and Lambert Road, Brea Boulevard and Lambert Road, and Brea Boulevard and Ash Street. The City also completed construction of the first phase of The Tracks at Brea trail project (running through Arovista Park and along the Brea Canyon Flood Control Channel), paid for by a grant from OCTA. Infrastructure Efforts in infrastructure improvements are facilitated through the City s CIP projects. During 2011, numerous street improvement and rehabilitation projects were also performed, in keeping with Policy CD These improvements include storm drain improvements at the Brea Sports Park; relining 15,070 linear feet of damaged sewer line citywide to extend the useful life of the system in a cost effective manner; rehabilitation of pavement and upgrade of water services at the Cinnamon Tract; removal and replacement of more than 6,000 square feet of displaced sidewalk and 350 linear feet of curb and gutter city-wide; and the rehabilitation of pavement, upgrade of water services and installation of missing sidewalks on Elm Street between Brea Boulevard and State College Boulevard. The City also completed an annual street slurry project that slurried 1.25 million square feet of city streets. As specified in Policies CD-14.1, CD-14.2, and CD-14.4, new development proposal review includes checking for consistency with water, power, and waste infrastructure. In addition, impact fees continued to be applied to new development to pay for needed infrastructure improvements. An update to the traffic nexus program was also completed in 2011 that established a single rate for all of Brea. The City also continues to participate in, and meet all requirements of, the Orange County Storm Water Management Plan. The City completed an update of its Pavement Management Plan in conformance with OCTA requirements. Furthermore, storm water quality outreach and public education is still a priority, with a focused integration into staffs discussion with proposed development representatives. Growth Management Staff continued to work in regards to Growth Management Goals by cooperating in the annual Congestion Management Plan update and being active in OCCOG, SCAG and other regional bodies, as set forth in Policies G-27.1 and G Applications for infill housing and second units also help to carry out the vision expressed for Growth Management through Policies CD-27.4 and CD-27.5.

5 Page 3 In keeping with Policies CD-26.3, 27.1,.4 and.5, 28.1,.2 and.3, Brea continues to actively participate in regional land use and transportation planning through the Southern California Association of Governments, Orange County Transportation Authority, Four Corners Group and Orange County Council of Governments. Additionally, staff is active on the Hillside Open Space Education Coalition and Orange County Senior Housing Council. Economic The Policies contained in Goals CD-1, CD-4, CD-6 and CD-23 call for the use of redevelopment set-aside funds and other funding mechanisms to assist with the development of work force housing. In addition to the housing projects described above, the City completed The Edges project and rehabilitated the Barney Barnes Bandstand in City Hall Park during The Neighborhood Enhancement Program continued as called for in Policy 1.12 with the administration of CDBG grants and loans. A Neighborhood Clean-up Day was held for the neighborhood north of Brea Marketplace. Residents generated a total of 12.4 tons of trash. The Economic Division also coordinated the painting of five additional houses through the volunteer Paint Your Heart Out Program, resulting in a total of 51 homes painted to date, which supports this Policy. As called for in the Policies of Goals CD-23, CD-24, and CD-25, staff continues to be active in maintaining and facilitating the Business Retention and Attraction Program. This has been performed through a regional marketing plan, active participation in the Chamber of Commerce s Economic Committee, the North Orange County Partnership, monthly Business Outreach visits, and Orange County Business Council activities. The City continued ongoing efforts to attract and retains successful Brea businesses. Efforts this past year have resulted in Bank of America processing center signing a new lease, Beckman Coulter consolidating operations here, and Fulfillment Corporation moving their two Fullerton locations to one Brea site. Further efforts to fulfill the above-mentioned Policies include close coordination with the Chamber of Commerce to address the needs of existing and future businesses in the community. The end of the year saw action by the State Supreme Court that ruled the wind down of all Redevelopment Agencies in California. For Brea the elimination of our 40 year agency and programs will bring significant loss in local housing and economic funding tools in the coming year, in addition to our ability to be proactive in fostering redevelopment and economic development for our community. Resources The Parks, Recreation and Human Services Commission and staff continue to ensure current needs and services are balanced. Policies CR-1.1 CR-1.7 call for the creation of new park space with development proposals to enhance the overall availability of parks for our growing community. In fulfilling this Policy, staff continues to work with developers to integrate park space within new developments. Trails continue to be a priority of the City, as called for in the Policies and Goals of CR-7 and CR-8. The City has worked extensively with State and Federal agencies to integrate planning and funding of recreation and trail facilities and to implement related General Plan Goals and Policies. In addition to completing construction of the first phase for The Tracks at Brea, the City received three grants totaling $914,000 for the acquisition of the final segment of the trail

6 Page 4 route. The City also successfully negotiated an agreement with Shea Homes for a trail easement at the entrance to the Blackstone housing complex. Policy CR-9.3 calls for the City to preserve and restore of the habitat value of creek corridors and in 2011 the City participated in Brea s seventh Inner Coastal Cleanup, generating more than 256 volunteers. Also in 2011, the first restoration project on Randolph Creek was held. Policy CR-10.3 states that the City will manage stands of mature trees, particularly native species, as unique and visual resources. In 2011, Brea received the Tree City USA award for the 14 th year. Ongoing efforts in fulfillment of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and a variety of storm water control system improvements were continued, as directed in Goals CR-11 and CR-12. Water conservation was also enhanced by requiring the use of drought tolerant plant materials for private development and using drought tolerant materials for public projects. Additionally, the City achieved a 13% citywide reduction in water consumption through the enforcement of the water conservation ordinance. Policy CR-13.2 calls for the City to promote energy conservation and recycling by public and private sectors. The City continues to lead the way regionally through implementation of sustainability initiatives aimed at improving the quality of life in Brea. City staff worked together for many months to make a solar panel project for City facilities economically feasible. In 2011, the City completed its Energy Efficiency Project, which is estimated to save the City $13 million in energy and maintenance costs over its 20+ year life. This project includes 1.8 MW of solar (PV) energy production, 19 package heating and cooling units, new remote HVAC controls units, replacement of 5,267 lamping units/fixtures, and replacement of 3,157 pole-mounted cobra head street lighting and 1,003 decorative fixtures. The solar panels made the City of Brea the largest municipal provider of solar energy in Orange County. In addition to this project, the City applied for and received a grant of more than $200,000 from Southern California Edison for energy efficiency projects. The commitment to maximize use of available recreation programs and cooperative efforts with Brea Olinda Unified School District called for under Policies CR-3.1, and CR-3.2 continue. Policies of Goals CD-1, CD-3 call for annual assessments of park resources and amenities. In support of this goal, the City has spent $762,370 in Proposition 12 and Proposition 40 grant funds to enhance existing park facilities. Enhancements were made at all City of Brea parks. Staff continues to encourage eligible property owners to utilize Mills Act loans and to place their property on the Historic Registry Listing, as called for in Policies CR-14.4 and CR During 2011, the City completed construction of a new storage building behind the Brea Museum (Brea Historic Register listing #3) for Historical Society artifacts and park maintenance equipment. As expressed through Policy CS-1.1, the Brea Center (BCC) remains the focal point for ongoing activities supporting the Brea community. The annual attendance of the BCC is now 418,000 people. Classes/programs offered at the BCC this past year included fitness, wellness, group exercise classes for all ages, decreasing youth obesity workshops, Parent s Education classes, preventative medical screening, a full dental clinic, and many more. As called for in Policies CS-1.1 and CS-1.4, special emphasis is placed on Brea s after school program for grade school ages and a teen center for the teen population. The Student Advisory Board (SAB) housed at the Teen Zone, continues to explore, design and implement a variety of workshops on teen-related topics for the participants, such as teen stress and anxiety,

7 Page 5 understanding diversity, and conflict resolution. The City s after school programs continue to operate and have been enhanced through additional grant funding to support transportation for Brea youth to the BCC. The Family Resource Center located within the BCC, as emphasized in Policy CS-1, provides extensive family support programs, such as rental and utility bill assistance, groceries, legal aid, tax prep, gas vouchers, financial consulting, and family counseling, and the BCC is also home to Early Childhood Education programs. The Brea Senior Center provides home delivered meals to over 45 home-bound seniors. This program is operated by volunteers. The Senior Center itself continued to offer a variety of programming and services to the local senior community, including enhanced Senior Stay Fit programs that provide seniors with regular exercise classes. These classes feature the Arthritis Foundation Exercise program, tai chi, hatha yoga, balance and mobility training, and physical fitness training. In addition to home-delivered meals, the Senior Nutrition Program continues to offer hot meals at the Center to seniors who are either driven to the Center or receive transportation through our City operated shuttle system. Finally, free surplus food items, e.g., soup, cereal, breads, pastries, peanut butter, rice, and vegetables are distributed to Brea s seniors to complement the daily hot lunch program. Two local hospitals (St. Jude and UCI Medical Center) provide physicians as guest speakers to the center. The Art in Public Places (APP) Program is a treasured program of the community, providing highly visible and accessible art experiences. Currently, over 156 large outdoor art sculptures are a feature on private developments throughout the City. The and Cultural Arts Commission expanded Brea Gallery s art education opportunities for students and adults by offering a variety of lectures and design projects with artists in exhibit. In keeping with Policy CS-6.1, the Curtis Theatre again hosted a variety of live performances for all age groups. The Youth Theatre program has an annual registration of 600 children. The City also sponsors live concerts and presentations in City Parks during summer. Public Safety The Brea Police and Fire s continue to enhance their services to our community through strategic deployment of personnel and utilization of resources. In keeping with Policies PS-1 and PS-2, staff actively participated in the design review and plan review process for new developments including the proposed Central Park Village project (former Brea Hospital site). Attention to fire prevention measures in the high fire hazard zones remains a focus area of the Fire. Policy PS-1.2 calls for coordinated efforts in the realm of technology and public safety. The purchased and implemented a new in-patrol car video camera system which provides photographic evidence to aid in the prosecution of crimes, and aids in the defense of liability claims against the City. In addition, the hired a new Crime Analyst, which expands the use of crime analysis information to identify crime trends in an effort to better deploy our resources, apprehend criminals, and help predict where crime may occur. The Fire has also continued to implement Policies PS-1.2, PS-6.1, through its Weed Abatement Enforcement Program and compliance with the Very High Fire Hazard Areas code requirements for new residential construction. Policy PS-1.4 calls for the Fire to determine and meet community needs for fire protection and emergency services. The implemented a Council approved twoyear pilot agreement with the City of Fullerton to share eight Fire Command staff positions. Estimated second and annual subsequent year savings to Brea is $880,000 per year. In

The approved Brea option includes a redeployment strategy and sharing of a single Battalion Chief with Fullerton. First year savings alone are estimated at more than $500,000. The Fire also trained 70 new Emergency Response Team (CERT) volunteers and conducted two neighborhood CERT exercises, one each in Olinda Village and Sommerset Townhomes. The CERT program is in keeping with Policies PS-1.9 and PS The Action Patrol (CAP), as called for in Policy PS-1.4, continues to be implemented. CAP provides a valuable service by having volunteers handle vacation housechecks and other miscellaneous duties that free up police officers for more pressing matters.

9 ATIACHMENT A Appendix A IMPLMENTATION GUIDE THE CITY OF BREA--- GENERAL PLAN

10 AppendixA IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE Use of the General T he General Plan Implementation Guide provides a guide to implement adopted General Plan policies and plans for City elected officials, staff and the public. The purpose of the Implementation Guide is to ensure the overall direction provided in the General Plan for City growth and development is translated from general terms to specific actions. Each implementation measure is a program, procedure, or technique that requires additional City action. This action may either occur on a City-wide basis, or in individual subareas. Some of the implementation measures are processes or procedures the City currently administers on a day-to-day basis (such as development project review), while others identify new programs or projects that will become day-to-day planning activities in Brea. The City Council, by relating the Implementation Guide to the General Plan, recognizes the importance of long-range planning considerations and budgeting to such day-to-day activities. Implementation of the specific programs will be subject to funding constraints. The Implementation Guide is organized into five subsections that correspond to the General Plan Chapters. Each of the subsections is comprised of programs that directly relate to the policies and plans of the corresponding General Plan element. The Implementation Guide is intended for use as the basis for preparing the Annual Report to the City Council on the status of Plan the City's progress in implementing the General Plan, as described Implementation in Section of the California Government Code. Because Guide many of the individual actions and programs described in the Implementation Guide act as mitigation for significant environmental impacts resulting from planned development identified in the General Plan, the annual report can also provide a means of monitoring the application of the mitigation measures as BREA GEt\ERAL PLAN A-1

The Collector classification best renects the function Brea Canyon Boulevard serves during most travel hours. Only during the evening commute does the roadway experience heavy use, typically as an alternative to the crowded SR-57 freeway. The City will preserve right.-of-way adequate for a Minor Arterial. but the Collector designation indicates the anticipated roadway function. Reclassify South Brea Boulevard (south of Imperill Highway) u Primary Arteriol. This modification preserves right~of-way consistent with a Major Arterial standard but indicates the City's intention to maintain no more than two travel lanes in each direction. The land use plan provides for South Brea Boulevlrd to be a mixed-use. pedestriln-friendly district.
