WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Cypress has considered an application
submitted by GLC Cypress, LLC ("Developer") for the development of two warehouse
buildings and associated parking and landscaping on an 18.6-acre site located at 5757
Plaza Drive in the McDonnell Center Specific Plan (the "Project"), which is within the City's

WHEREAS, the Project requires the following to be approved by the City Council:
an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration ("IS/MND"), a Vesting Tentative Parcel
Map (VTPM No. 2023-101), and a Site Plan Review (SPR No. 2022-05); and
WHEREAS, in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA), on April 10, 2023, the City Council of the City of Cypress adopted
the IS/MND that has been prepared for the Project applications in accordance with CEQA,
and adopted a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project. The City
Council has fully considered the IS/MND prior to considering this resolution; and
WHEREAS, on April 10, 2023 the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing
and accepted testimony in regards to the Project; and
WHEREAS, said tentative map has been reviewed by the City's Engineer and the
Orange County Fire Department with recommended conditions of approval; and
WHEREAS, the proposed subdivision, together with the provisions for its design
and improvement, is consistent with the City's General Plan; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the applicant agrees with the necessity of
and accepts all elements, requirements, and conditions of this resolution as being a
reasonable manner of preserving, protecting, providing for, and fostering the health,
safety, and welfare of the citizenry in general and the persons who work, visit or live in
this development in particular.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CYPRESS,
CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The proposed map does not warrant rejection based upon the criteria
for rejection in the Cypress Subdivision Ordinance, the City's General Plan, the Cypress
Zoning Ordinance, or Sections 66473.5, 66474.6 and 66474 of the Subdivision Map Act
as the proposed tentative map is:
A. The map is consistent with the site's General Plan land use designation of"Specific
Plan Area" as it is consistent with the intent of the McDonnell Center Specific Plan
in which the Project is located.
B. The two warehouse buildings associated with the proposed subdivision are
consistent with the General Plan and the McDonnell Center Specific Plan.
C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development. The project meets all
the required development standards.
D. The site is physically suitable for the density of development. The McDonnell
Center Specific Plan limits intensity of development to a floor area ratio of 1.0:1.0,
which is met by the project.
373
E. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements are not likely to
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish
or wildlife or their habitat. An IS/MND was prepared for the project which identified
the potential for significant effects on the environment from development of the
Project, all of which can be reduced to a level of insignificance through the
implementation of mitigation measures;
F. The design of the subdivision will not cause serious public health problems. Sewer
discharge requirements will occur pursuant to Section 66474.6 of the Subdivision
Map Act.
G. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not unreasonably
interfere with the free and complete exercise of a public entity and/or public utility
rights-of-way and/or easements within the tract map. All existing utility easements
will remain intact as will the easement for public parking on the northern edge of
the Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Cypress hereby approves Vesting Tentative Parcel Map No. 2023-101, subject to
the applicable conditions included in Exhibit "A" of the Resolution approving Site Plan
Review No. 2022-05. The decision of the City Council is final and conclusive as to all
things involved.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Cypress
at a regular meeting held on the 10th day of April, 2023.
