office building to be ocated a�5 Hospital
Road, on the iioitheasterl corner of Hospital Road
and Placentia Avenue, opposite Hoag Memorial
Hospital; zoned A-P.
Report from the Planning Department, was presented.
Letter from Dennis O'Neil, of McDonough, Holland &
Allen, representing the Applicants for approval of
the traffic study, was presented.
The City Clerk reported that after the printing of
the agenda, a letter was received from Newport
Villa West regarding the construction of the
underground parking facility and its impact on
their patients during said construction period.
It was noted that the Traffic Study for the pro-
posed development had been prepared in accordance
with Chapter 15.40 of the Newport Beach Municipal r
Code (Traffic Phasing Ordinance) and Council
Policy S-1 (Administrative Procedures for Imple-
menting the Traffic Phasing Ordinance).
Due to questions raised, discussion ensued regard-
ing Council Policy S-1 and its relation to the
Traffic Phasing Ordinance. Comments were also
made with respect to traffic generation and park-
ing requirements.
It was noted by staff that if the Traffic Study
were approved by Council, it would be with the
assumption that the project met the density and
height requirements, and all other zoning regula-
tions.
William Kunzman of Kunzman Associates, the
City's Traffic Consultant who performed the traf-
fic impact analysis for this project, addressed
the Council and answered questions regarding the
traffic study. He described how he calculated the
traffic generating characteristics of the project,
noting they used data that had been provided by

the staff for the 307 Placentia medical office Park Lido/
building. He stated that typically one does not try Tfk Study
to estimate traffic generation rates from the
number of parking spaces. It is usually done
independent of one another.
N ,
Dennis O'Neil, Attorney representing the Applicant,
3200 Park Center Drive, Costa Mesa, stated that
their position was set forth in their letter of May
17. He requested he be permitted to address the
Council again following public testimony.
Dick Hogan, representing the residential property
owners in the area, stated that they have no
objections to the development within the require-
ments of the zoning Ordinance. However, their con-
cern is traffic, but not the traffic covered by the
Traffic Phasing Ordinance. He requested the
Council consider: 1) closing access to Patrice Road
in relation ,to the project, and 2) installing stop
s signs on Placentia Avenue, which would allow traf-
fic coming out of the project to get onto Placentia.
He stated that the developer has offered to provide
the latter and he urged the Council to accept the
offer.
Margot Skilliug, 6610 W. Ocean Pront, and Louise
Greeley, 16 Swift Court, addressed the Council and
urged denial of the project.
Nancy Skinner, 1724 Highland Avenue, stated she was
pleased to hear that the Planning Commission had
commenced a study of the subject area as she was
concerned with increased traffic. She asked
questions of the staff regarding parking require-
ments for the present Park Lido building.
Mr. O'Neil addressed the Council again and stated
that the Planning Commission did review the evidence
regarding the Traffic Study and determined that the
Traffic Study complied With Chapter 15.40 of the
Municipal Code and Council Policy S-1, implementing
said study. The Commission further found that the
project would neither cause, nor make worse, an
unsatisfactory level of traffic service on any
major, primary modified or primary street. He felt
that, in view of the data submitted and the recom-
mendations of the staff, the project should be
approved.
Hearing no others wishing to address the Council,
the public hearing was closed.
Motion x Motion was made to sustain the recommendation of
the Planning Commission.
At the supgestioon of Council Member Strauss, the
motion was amended to include that this item be
brought back to�the Council for review, if ie is

to a conceptual design or to a project plan which does
not exist. Mr. Bob Burnham, Assistant City Attorney
concurred.
The public hearing opened in connection with this item
and Mr. Dennis O'Neil, representing the applicant,
appeared before the Commission. Mr. O'Neil stated that
they have prepared a conceptual plan which- complies
with the zoning. He stated that the structure will- be
built within the height limit and will have
subterranean parking which satisfies many of the
concerns expressed by the surrounding property owners
and residents. He stated that they are committed to
the signalization at Placentia Avenue and Hospital Road
and improvement of the traffic circulation through the
use of signs. He stated that they concur with the
recommendations of the staff report.
Mr. Dick Hogan, representing the residential property
owners of the area, which include 140 apartment units
in Mediterranean Village and 99 condominiums in the
Park Lido Association, appeared before the Commission.
In addition, he stated that he is also representing Mr.
Ralph Gray, who owns 44 of the apartment units.
Mr. Hogan stated that they have viewed the conceptual
plan which appears to be satisfactory and is certainly
a substantial improvement over the original proposal.
He referred to the Traffic Phasing Plan and expressed
his concern that it does not cover the local traffic
systems. He suggested that the traffic exit onto
Flagship Road be controlled in such a way to prohibit
right turns. He stated that this is a safety concern
of the residents and the occupants of the convalescent
homes.
Mr. Hogan stated that the applicant is agreeable in
providing a left turn requirement from the parking lot
and that there be a stop sign on Placentia Avenue. He
stated that the City's traffic consultant has indicated
that because of the projected traffic on Placentia
Avenue, this would be a reasonable consideration.

Commissioner Beek asked Mr. Hogan if they are •asking
for a signal or a stop sign. Mr. Hogan stated that
they are requesting a stop sign in both directions at
the intersection of Placentia Avenue and Flagship Road.
Commissioner Allen stated that the Planning Commission
f is only considering the request for the proposed
Traffic Study, not the plans which have been shown by
the applicant. She suggested that the Commission find
a way in which to condition the project, which will
satisfy the concerns of the surrounding residential
area.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Allen,
Mr. Hogan stated that they prefer the parking structure
as proposed, not an above ground parking structure.
Mr. Hogan suggested that the Commission accept a copy
of the applicant's plans, as informational plans,
which will represent the intent of the applicant.
Commissioner Allen suggested that perhaps a private
solution could be considered between the applicant and
the residents of the area. Mr. Hogan stated that they
feel that the items which they have requested are
consistent with the Traffic Phasing Plan.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner King,
Mr. Don Webb, City Engineer, stated that he would not
foresee a problem with the requested- left turn only
sign on Flagship Road.
Mr. William Kunzman of Kunzman Associates, the City's
Traffic Consultant who performed the traffic impact
analysis for this project, appeared before the
Commission.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis, Mr. Kunzman stated that Figure 2 of the report
was utilized in determining the ingress and egress of
the project. Mr. Fred •Talarico, Environmental
Coordinator, stated that Figure 2 shows the current,
pre-existing driveways on the site. Commissioner
Balalis expressed his concern that the traffic
distribution of the existing project may be totally
different than the traffic distribution of the proposed
project, particularly if one of the driveways is
eliminated.

Mr. Don Webb stated that in this particular analysis,
the intention of the City Traffic Engineer was that all
of the existing driveways would be utilized and would
have equal ability to handle the traffic.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis, Mr. Bob Burnham, Assistant City Attorney,
stated that it is his understanding that questions of
access do not have any impact upon the numbers of the
traffic study. Planning Director Hewicker stated that
the staff has not had the opportunity to view the
conceptual plan as developed by the applicant.
Commissioner Winburn asked why Hospital Road and
Placentia Avenue were not involved in the Traffic
Study. Mr. Kunzman stated that these intersections are
not on the critical list. Mr. Talarico stated that the
critical list specifically refers to signalized
intersections.
Commissioner King suggested that the project
description contained on Page 1 of the Traffic Study
should be accepted as identifying the proposed
development. He stated that this description is what
the Traffic Study addressed in its analysis of .the
project. Mr. Burnham stated that this would not
impose a requirement that the project be built in that
manner.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek,
Mr. Webb stated that Hospital Road and Placentia Avenue
are secondary streets. Commissioner Beek stated that
Figure 2 of the Traffic Study is irrelevant, because
the project traffic distribution is based on Figure 3
which shows that all of the traffic will be exiting on
Flagship Road and none of the traffic will be exiting
on Hospital Road.

Planning Director Hewicker stated that the traffic
distribution in the analysis of the Traffic Study is
based upon the utilization of the driveways on Flagship
Road and Hospital Road. He stated that the Commission
does not have the authority to direct that there be
right or left turns out of the driveways, or to close
any of the driveways. Mr. Burnham concurred and stated
that a private agreement as suggested by Commissioner
Allen would not be feasible either.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek,
Mr. Kunzman referred to Appendix C of the ICU - work
sheets, Page 39, and explained how the figure .8929 was
calculated.
Ms. Nancy Skinner, resident of 724 Highland Drive,
suggested that if the applicant were to design this
building a few inches higher than the height limit, the
application would then have to be approved by the
Commission and these requirements could be legally
imposed.
Mr. Mike Johnson, resident of 220 Nice Lane, stated
that this area is very congested with traffic. He
expressed his concern that the cumulative affects of
the traffic impacts for all of the developments in the
West Newport area must be considered. He stated that
if the Beeco/Banning Ranch proposal is approved by the
voters, it will have a tremendous impact on the traffic
and will change all of the traffic counts that have
been presented.
Commissioner King stated that the committed projects
are included in the projections of the Traffic Study.
He stated that the Beeco/Banning Ranch proposal is not
a committed project because of the referendum.
Planning Director Hewicker• explained the committed
projects in the area:
Mr. Webb stated that if the Beeco/Banning Ranch
proposal were to be included as a committed project,
the distribution would change substantially because it
provides for an additional intersection which would
cause a diversion of traffic off of Superior Avenue and
lower the ICU, which would allow more capacity in the
intersection.

Commissioner Allen stated that she would be voting
against this 'item because this particular area needs to .
be studied in terms of the traffic. She stated that
medical office buildings are big trip generators.
She stated that the applicant has developed a project,
which attempts to deal with the concerns of the doctors
and the residents of the area. However, she stated
that the Commission is considering the requested
Traffic Study, not the conceptual plan of the project. ,,
Commissioner Beek stated that he can not support the

Newport Beach, CA 92663
Dear Commissioners,
I am writing to express to you my continuing and increased
concern of the impact on the traffic, particularly along
Hospital road, but also along Placentia, which will be caused
by the number of proposed new construction projects in our
immediate area, including the Beeco project, Hoag second
tower, Hughes Aircraft# Mallard Medical, the Heritage Bank
Building and the Park Lido Medical Building.
Despite the opinions of the Traffic Review Group, we have
significant traffic problems at present and the increased
traffic I am afraid will lead us to have many traffic jams
and an increased number of accidents.
I would encourage you to look at the total area, as I know
you are, so that we may have an optimal development plan.
Sincerely yours

2. Project Traffic Generation
The traffic generated by a site is determined by multiplying an
appropiate trip generation rate by the quantity of land use.
Trip generation rates are expressed in terms of trip ends per per-
son, trip ends per employee, trip ends per acre, trip ends per
dwelling, or trip ends per thousand square feet of floor area.
For this study, trip generation data was supplied by the City
of Newport Beach. Based on actual traffic counts at a medical
office building at Hospital Road and, Placentia, the City's study
indicates 30 trips per 1,000 square feet of floor area.
Table 1 provides trip generation information for the 65,269 square
foot building.

3. Project Traffic Distribution and Assignment
Traffic distribution is based on the directional orientation of
traffic, and then the traffic is assigned to specific roadways .
It is based on the aeographical location of residential concentra-
tions, along with commercial, business, and recreational opportu-
nities. Traffic distribution and assignment was provided by City
of Newport Beach staff.

4. One Percent Intersection Analysis
Seven critical intersections were analyzed as identified by City
staff. Table 2 lists the seven intersections, and provides a
summary of the One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis . Appendix A
contains the calculation sheets. Four intersections have the
one percent volume criteria exceeded:
Superior and Placentia
Superior and Pacific Coast Highway
Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road
Dover Drive and Pacific Coast Highway
The purpose of the One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis is to
extablish whether the project adds a volume that is greater than
one percent of a critical intersection's approach volume. if
less than one percent is 'added to all approaches of a critical
intersection, then no further analysis is necessary as specified
in the Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
As part of the one percent analysis, regional growth and committed
projects are included. Volume projections are made to. a point in
time one year after the project completion. This project's comple-
tion date is 1983, and traffic volumes are projected to 1984 .
Regional traffic has been forecasted in accordance with City pro-
cedures, and committed project traffic includes those projects
listed in Table 3.

5. Intersection Capacity Utilization Analysis
Of the four intersections exceeding the one percent criteria,
two are operating near or above 90 percent capacity. Superior
and Pacific Coast Highway is operating at 113 percent of
capacity, and Dover Drive and Pacific Coast Highway is operating
at 89. 69 percent of capacity.
Once the growth and committed traffic volumes are added to the
current traffic volumes, • the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway
intersection is expected to be operating at 139 percent of its
estimated capacity. If the project traffic is added, it is anti-
cipated to be operating at 141 percent of its capacity. The
project adds very little to this already heavily impacted inter-
section.
When the growth and committed traffic is added to the Dover and
Pacific Coast Highway intersection it will operate at 109 per-
cent of capacity. Once the project traffic is added it will in-
crease slightly.
Appendix B contains the intersection capacity utilization work
sheets .

6 Project Related Improvements
In that the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is
impacted by other development projects and regional traffic, the
responsibility for the improvements recommended should be appor-
tioned in an equitable manner.
In the City of Newport Beach' s 1981 - 1982 budget, the improve-
ments of one southbound left lane, two southbound through lanes
and one southbound right lane to the Superior/Pacific Coast
Highway intersection have been included. It is anticipated that
construction will begin this fiscal year. Other projects have
proposed the addition of one westbound through lane and one south-
bound right lane. This project proposes the restripping of the
'northbound lanes to include three northbound through lanes . With
these improvements, the intersection will operate at . 8929 .
The Dover and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is currently being
reconstructed. The proposed improvements include: three south-
bound left lanes, one southbound right lane, and one southbound
through; two eastbound left lanes, and three eastbound through
lanes; one westbound right lane, one westbound left lane and three
westbound through lanes. Once these improvements are completed,
the intersection will operate at . 7650.

The traffic analysis indicated that four (4) of the above intersections will
have traffic volume increases of greater than 1% as a result of the proposed
project development. In accordance with the Traffic Phasing Ordinance and
City Policy S-1 an I.C.U. analysis was performed to determine if one year
after the cacpletion of the project the intersections would be operating at
acceptable levels. This analysis indicates that all affected interestions,
one year after project oatpletion, will be operating at .9006 or less.

Re: Park Lido illedical Bldg. Expansion ; Request for Cc, NY nuance
Dear Planning Commissioners: M.
I have owned sixteen residental units in the above area fo'r--- "-
r approximately twelve years. Please give your full consideration
to the following requests:
-1 . A review of the impact of the illedical Office expansion
on a fully developed residential neighborhoend which has been in
existence for at least sixteen or , seventeen years. The owners and
r esidents of the area are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of th.eir
properties and should no't be subject to having their properties
devalued by probably doubled traffic and fumes . Please review my
attach(:d letter of Oct . 15 , 1981 .
2 . Give the owners and residents in the area an opportunity to
review the site plans and traffic studius for ingress and egress to
the new development . T1ae staff has informed me those will nut be
available until Fri . Apr . 16 for the meeting to beheld April 22 ,
1982.
3. 8ecause of time limitations for residents to study tha project
and formulate their positions ,I request that the matter be continued
for at least two weeks and preferably four weeks . The residents '
group has been subject to hardship by the developer ' s withorawd
of plans on the evening the residents were represented by an expert .
4 . The residents request that the entrance an.d exit to the
parking facility should be located on Hospital Hd , tu prevent the
residential streets of Flagship Rd and Dana lid from oucom.ing
thoroughfares in the residential areas . For the same reason we
request that if there is consideration of an exit from a parking
bldg. onto Flagship , that no right turns onto Flagship be p.:r;nitted.
Please consider the foregoing and give the residents an
opportunity to study the traffic study and planning commission
staff report. Thank you for your consideration .
Very truly yours ,

foi,rplexes are locatud on Patrico Rd. which share a common border with
the proposed 30 ft. high parking building , a height greater than the
two story fourplexes . The remaining apartment units are on Hilaria
way and Dana Rd . Of the total 140 apartments , one quarter ( or 35 are
spacious , two level , three bedroouy two bath L'ut.if.:11,11 j ; ; , t..ios,

The remaining half or seventy apartments ari! spaciuue; townhomos , two

lower patios and upstairs balcolnies.
2.The 9A Park Lida Condominiums Constitute an Established Neighborhood
in existence for about 18 years. They are spaciuus units with many
amenities and double garages, and were built before the Park Lido
iuedical Bldg was constructed . Some of the Park Liclo cundominium owners
anticipated that a park and teenis courts would be built on the site
of the Park Lido D;edical Building.
3. Quality of Life Adversely Affected for the 236 rsesiuential Units .
The foregoing 239 households are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of
their homes. To add the proposed medical building and parking structure
would destroy the quality of their homes and environment. The exisitng
Park Lido parking lot which is not used in the evenings 'and weekends
constitutes an area of open space and improves the air quality of the
nrea .Some condominiums and apartments on Flagship and Patrice have
mini ocean views from their second stories which will certainly be lost .
4. Devaluation of Property values It is self evident• that there would
be a decline in property values for the owners of tnu condominiums
and apartments if an unsightly parking structure over 30 ft . high
is built . It would destroy the aesthetic character• of the neiqhborhood.
The noise , fumes and continual traffic would make the neighborhood
far less desirable resulting in a declinu in propurty veilues.
For all the foregoing reasons I am requesting that Lhu permit be
denied or' that an Environmefftal Impact Report be submitted.

Re: Permit No . 2021
Request for Environmental Impact Report for Pormit 2021
I am the owner of sixteen residental units located in the area referred
to as 'Newpo-rt Mediterranean Apts. located at Flagship lid . and Patrice,
Hilaria Way and Dana Rd . My sixteen units are situated in four buildings
at 4200 Patrice, 4127 Hilaria and 4151 Hilaria , and 4223 Dana Rd. I
strongly object to the proposed permit No 20'21 pursuant to which the
following new structures are to be added to the site now occupied by
the Park Lido medical building and parking lot:
1 . A new office building of approx mately b5 , 000 fie . ft . which
apparently will be approximately 84 of the size of the existing
Park Lido 11ledical Building have about 77 ,000 sq . ft .
2. A three or four level parking structure over 30 ft. high to be
located at the corner of Flagship and Patrice tc provide parking
for ' bo-th the existing and new building. This structure will be
approximately the size of a football field .
In my opinion the granting of permit [go. 2021 would destroy the quality
of the residential neighborhood of the Newport Mediterranean Apts. and ,
the Park Lido Condominiums totaling, 239 residences which have been
located there for approximately 14 and 18 years respectively . To permit
an 84% expansiwn of office space and a huye parking structure over
thirty feet high; would destroy the aesthetic quality of the residential
neighborhood,, create noise , fumes , all day 1•onq traffic congestion and
increased air pollution. Please note that a medical office building
involves a continuing hourly or half hourly turnover of cars in the
parking, structure. In the past few years this residential area has
been subject to increased traffic from- the following: 1 . expansion
of Hoag Hospital , 2. construction of Villa balboa ;' 3 . construction of
a large new medical ouilding at Superior and Hospital lid. The
proposed new parking structure at Hughes Corporation on Dana Rd.
will add further traffic to an overburdened area.
My objections to Permit No. 2021 can be further detailed as follows;
1 . The 140 Newport Mediterranean Apts . constitute an Established
Neighborhood in existence for about 14 years. All of these are deluxe
two and three vedroom units with many amenitios. •There are thirty-five

Coucil and to each member of the Planning Commission. We expressed
our deep concern over the proposed expansion on the site of the Park
Lido Medical Building.
I explained in that letter that both my wife and I had been involved
for over 30 years in Traffic Safety with the Los Angeles City Schools.
We stated that we were opposed to any additional buildings' on the
site that would increase traffic and on-street parking in the Park
Lido and Mediterranean Village projects.
In my presentation to the Planning Commission, I indicated that the
studies which had been made on behalf of the Project were made at
intersections which should be of concern to the City, but which
were of little concern to the residents who must use Flagship Road
or Dana Street as the only means of Ingress and egress to and from
our community.
The intersections of Flagship Road at-Placentia; Placentia at Hos-
pital Roads and Dana at Superior are vital to us.
There was no mention of any of these intersections in the Initial
Study prepared by Westec Services, Inc. or in the subsequent "Response
to Questions".
Section 2 .1.2, paragraph 2, on page 9 of the Initial Study admits
the "Land use impacts may or may not result from the location of
the parking structure. . ". We contend that it does not take a
professional to ascertain that great harm will be done to thesurround-
,is'ig community. The section goes on to state, "while proximity to the
residences is not the most desirable, a generous set back along the
affected streets has been provided as well as a fairly lush land-
scape scene and berms. ,,
Curbside parking is inevitable andwill mean a great deal of pedes-
trian traffic on Patrice and Flagship Road, next to the parking
structure. Sidewalks should have been recommended or required as
a part of the conditions under which the Planning Commission gave its
approval of the project.
No mention has been made of any plans which the City may have to
ease, the existing and future traffic problems at Flagship Road and
Placentia or at Hospital Road and Placentia.

Re: Park Lido Medical
Building Project
Dear Planning Commission Members:
On Feburary 7, 1982 my wife and I sent the attached
letter to all members of the City Council stating our
reasons for our objections to the addition of any more
buildings to the Park Lido Medical Building site.
We realize that the City Council rejected the prior
application for stover height" construction.
We now understand that the owner is having a traffic
study prepared by a consulting firm. Should certain
conditions prevail in that study it is our understanding
that construction may proceed within the height limits.
We have not received a single communication as the result
of our letter of Feburary 701982. We are therefore attach-
ing copies of that letter to again voice our concerns and
objections to any additions that will increase the traffic
volume on Flagship Road in the amounts stated in that letter.
Any' traffic study which does not deal directly with the
concerns expressed in our letter to the Council must be
rejected as inadequate. the invironmental impact upon our
community is too great to ignore.
S*ncerely,you ,

average per hour will be using Flagship Road plus the
traffic„generated within our communities by residents.
There will be many "U-turns" and mid-block turnabouts by those who
choose to park at our curbs. Accidents are inevitable.
The "Project Traffic Distribution" shows that 25% (1069) of the
4268 daily trips will go northeast on Superior. Most of these
drivers will use Flagship Road to Dana and turn right onto Superior.
This they will do to avoid the traffic jams at Placentia and Flag-
ship Road? and the signal at Placentia and Superior.
The project study indicates as stated previously that 55% will use
Hospital Road accesses to reach Newport Boulevard. We seriously
doubt this, because 55% of 4268 daily trips to both medical build-
ings means that there will be 2347 potential left turns from mid-
block accesses onto Hospital Road in an eight-hour period or 293
such turns per hour.
It is reasonable to assume that those drivers who will hesitate to
turn left onto Hospital Road against traffic accelerating uphill
or coasting downhill will choose to use Flagship Road. This can
easily negate the assumption that 55% will use the Hospital Road
accesses. It will also increase the volume on Flagship Road.
We ask that you deny this permit and change the zoning to resident-
ial.
I close with one very important question, "Where is there a law
that says that one property owner can profit at the expense of all
within the community?
We are sending this letter because we will be in San Francisco on
a business trip at the time of your hearing on this project.

No suggestions have been put forward as to how the two intersections
In such close proximity can be signalized to provide an orderly pro-
cession of vehicles on the three streets.
The Initial Study points out that the proposed parking structure
will not contain the required number of parking stalls. (pl4, 2.3,,2)
This means that the curbside parking referred to herein will definitely
occur.
In fact, multi-level parking structures are avoided whenever possible;
It is therefore , most likely that women will' choose to park at our curbs
and walk to the buildings whenever they can find space at a curb.
Items "a" through "e" of Section 2.3.2, "Environmental Impacts",
deal with three major alternatixes of providing temporary parking
during construction.
Two of the proposals deal with the use of valet parking using lots
#1 and #2 on Superior and Coast Highway respectively.
These suggestions cannot be taken seriously by anyone. It just is
not going to happen until our community streets are overloaded.
The use of curbside parking described in item "c", page 15, gives
the most realistic picture of what will occur during construction and
after completion of the project .
The Study ignores the problems associated with the parking of con-
s-truction workers' vehicles. These people will grab the closest curbside
Spaces because they will arriv.e 'earliest. This will force patients
out into our entire community. We will suffer the pangs of overparking
even in prohibited areas.
Any attempt to enforce parking laws will and up by giving tickets to
home owners who cannot find a space for their second car in the village r.
area.
"Project Driveway Use" on page A-25 states that 55% of the daily project
traffic will be oriented to Newport Blvd. and the heaviest driveway use
In expected to be the Hospital Road access.
No mention is made of other access locations. However, 45% is ei-
onemean that Flagship Roaddto use other access andStreetswillicarry this can
to their
Juncture with Placentia and Superior respectively. We find no studies
covering these intersections, and yet this structure will add at
least 881 more trips that will be added to existing traffic. (25% of
1958) 1
The proposed 65,269 square foot building will generate 1958 trips
daily according to the Study .(see page All) . The existing 77,6o0
square foot building which is 1,18 times the size' of the proposed
structure evidently generates 2310 trips daily, for a total of 4268
trips when all construction is finished.
If the foregoing figures are reasonably accurate then the present
1040 cars which now use Flagship Road (45%) will be increased by
881 for a total of 1921 trips daily on Flagship Road. Thus, anj

II. OUTLINE OF METHODOLOGY FOR TRAFFIC ANALYSES
A. Designation of Impacted Intersections and Determination of Project
Impact for 2.5 Hour Peak Period:-
1. The Traffic Engineer will determine which intersections will be
affected by the proposed project according tb its size and geographic
location.
2. An analysis will be done whereby it will be determined if one year
after completion of the project, or portions of the project for which
the traffic analysis is being performed, the project (including
those portions for which traffic analyses have been previously
approved) will generate one percent or more of the projected traffic
volumes for each leg of each impacted intersection during that 2.5
hour peak period. If less than a one percent increase is demonstrated
for each leg, then the analysis is concluded, and finding I.D.2.
may be made.
B. If the initial Traffic Study indicated the project, or portion of the
project, for which the traffic analysis is being performed, one year
after completion may generate one percent or more of projected traffic
volumes on one or more legs of any impacted intersection, then the
Traffic Engineer or a qualified consultant will analyze the intersection
capacity utilization for the impacted intersection(s) :

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTING
THE TRAFFIC PHASING ORDINANCE
I. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
A. General:
These procedures apply to all commercial or industrial projects which
have a gross floor area greater than 10„000 sq. ft. , and all residen-
tial projects of more than ten dwelling units.
B. Evaluating Projects:
1. The applicant files a request for consideration of the entire pro-
ject, under the ,provisions of the Ordinance, with the Planning
Department. The request must be accompanied by a project descrip-
tion, project phasing schedule, site plan, and fees as set by the
City Council.
2. A traffic analysis shall then be prepared by a qualified traffic
engineer according, to the methodology approved by the City Council.
C. Staff Recommendation:
1. The City's Traffic Engineer will review the report prepared by the
consultant and transmit the findings and worksheet to the Planning
Department for presentation to the Planning Commission.
D. Planning Commission Review and Findings:
The Planning Commission shall review the determination and recommends-
tions of the Traffic Engineer and the Planning Department, at a duly-
noticed public hearing, and make one of the following findings:
1. The City has issued a building or grading permit for the project
prior to May 8, 1978, and that the person to whom such permit was
issued has, in good faith and in reliance upon such permit,
diligently commenced construction and performed and incurred
substantial liabilities for work and materials necessary therefor.
No change, causing a substantial increase in traffic volumes, has
been made in such project, except in accordance with .the provisions
of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance; or
2. The traffic projected one year after project completion, during any
2.5 hour peak traffic period on each leg of each critical inter-
section, will be increased less than 1% by traffic generated from
the project during that 2.5 hour period; or
3. A traffic analysis has been performed and accepted. The traffic
analysis was based on the projected street system and projected
traffic volumes one year after completion of the project or
portion of the project for which the traffic analysis was performed.
The traffic analysis has shown that, at that time, the additional
traffic generated by the project, or portion of the project, ^
including any approved trip generation reduction measures:
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUROOR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC *ING ORDINANCE - Page 4 S-1,
For purposes of the traffic analysis, 70% of the incremental increase
in intersection capacity (based on a capacity of 1600 vehicles per hour
of green time for each full traffic lane) shall be utilized. Upon
completion of the improvement, traffic volume counts shall be updated,
and any additional available capacity may then be utilized in future
traffic analyses.
C. Traffic Volumes
1. Traffic volumes shall be based on up-to-date estimates of traffic
volumes expected to exist one year after completion of the project,
or portion of the project, for which the traffic analysis .is being
performed. Such estimates shall include existing traffic as deter-
mined by annual field counts plus traffic generated by previously
approved projects or portions of projects expected to exist in the
same time period plus estimated increases in regional traffic,.
If the intersection configuration being analyzed is the ultimate
configuration consistent with the Circulation Element or otherwise
approved by the City Council, then the traffic volumes used in the
analysis shall include total traffic expected to be generated from
all previously approved projects even if they will not be completed
at the time the subject project is completed.
2. The incremental regional traffic for the time period between the
date of existing counts and one year after project completion will
be estimated based on the rate projected by the traffic model or on
a growth projection developed by the Traffic Engineer and approved
by the Planning Commission.
3. For making the 1% test of II.A.2. , traffic volumes shall not be
used which exceed the capacity of the circulation system specified
in the General Plan.
D. Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the project shall be based on standard
trip, generation values established by the .City Traffic Engineer with
the approval of the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal or
review. These trip generation figures may be modified only when the
applicant proposes specific, permanent measures that will reduce traffic
generated by the project, provided that:
1. The applicant describes in writing, in advance of the traffic analysis,
the proposed measure, the estimated reduction in trip generation
that will result, and the basis for the estimate. The estimate
must be approved by the Planning Commission or City Council on
appeal or review before the trip generation figures may be reduced.
2. The applicant provides the Planning Commission with a written
assurance that the proposed trip generation reduction measure will
be permanently implemented, and agrees to make said permanent
implementation a condition for project approval.
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUR OR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC P*INC ORDINANCE - Page 3 S-i
The report will indicate the following:
1. Existing traffic.
2. Projected increases in- regional traffic.
3. Projected traffic from committed projects that will be completed
before one year after the completion date of the project or portion
of the project for which the traffic analysis is being performed.
4. Traffic generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
without trip generation reduction measures.
5. Traffic 'generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
with approved trip generation reduction measures.
C. Where a full traffic analysis is performed under Section IIB,, the
following I.C.U. calculations shall be performed for each impacted
intersection:
1. The existing I.C.U.
2. The I.C.U. , with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion. This I.C.U. calculation
shall be based on all projected traffic sources except the proposed
project.
3. The I.C.U., with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion, based on all sources of
traffic, including traffic generated by the proposed project, with
approved trip generation reduction measures.
III. DEFINITIONS AND ANALYSIS RESTRAINTS
A. Traffic System Improvements
Traffic system improvements may be included in the traffic analysis
for a proposed project, provided that:
1. The improvement will be completed no more than one year after com-
pletion of the project or project phase for which the traffic
analysis is being performed; and
2. The improvement is included in the Circulation Element of the General
Plan, and is defined sufficiently therein to permit an I.C.U. analysis
to be performed; or
3. The improvement design has been approved by the City Council, and
is defined sufficiently to permit an I.C.U. analysis to be performed.

for the traffic analysis, he shall provide a description of such pro-
posals in writing to the Planning Commission, along with supporting
data justifying their use, in advance of the traffic analysis. Such
proposals may then be. used in the traffic analysis if they are approved
by the Planning Commission and the City Council.
IV. ISSUANCE OF PERMITS
Permits may be issued for all or a portion of a project after an appropriate
finding under I.D. has been made.
A. Grading Permits
Grading permits may be issued prior to performance of the .traffic analy-
sis if vesting rights associated with grading are waived by applicant.
B. Building Permits
Where traffic system improvements have been included in the traffic
analysis, building permits may be issued only after traffic system
improvement timing has been confirmed as follows:
1. It has been budgeted and committed for development by the City; or
2. The State or County or other governmental agency making the improve-
ment has accepted bids; or
3. The improvement is to be installed or guaranteed by the applicant
in conjunction with the development project and is approved by the

Newport City Planning Commissioners

Newport Beach, CA 92663
Dear Commissioners :
Quick access to Hoag hospital is important to all of us .
Unfortunately not all vehicles bringing emergency patients to
Hoag Hospital have the benefit of a siren to assist them.
There is already traffic congestion during peak hours at
two intersections adjacent to the hospital (Hospital Rd,. and
Placentia Ave . ; Hospital Rd. and Newport Blvd. ) . Increasing
congestion can be anticipated near the hospital entrance because
of more automobile traffic from Costa Mesa using Placentia Ave .
as a thoroughfare . Future construction of the second Hoag tower ,
the Heritage Bank building, the Hughes project, the Mollard Medi-
cal Building and probably the Park Lido project have been allowed
to proceed without measuring their impact on the intersection of
Hospital Rd. and Placentia Ave .
The Beeco project might generate more area traffic than
planned if much of the 235 , 000 square feet designated as commercial
in Area Two is utilized for medical offices .
Although the proposed traffic signal at Hospital Rd . and
Placentia Ave . might temporarily mitigate traffic problems , ultimately
in the next five to ten years traffic will increasingly stifle access
to Hoag Hospital .
I believe that in the future it is important to require nearby
projects to include traffic impact studies on the intersection at
Hospital Rd. and Placentia Ave . Perhaps more stringent traffic
requirements than those outlined in the Traffic Phasing Ordinance '
may be needed for intersections adjacent to the Hospital .
Hoag Hospital will invariably increase in size and the surrounding
surface streets will be increasingly congested. Unless an Area Plan
addressing contingency plans for hospital access is considered now,
there will be few options available for alleviating the problem in
the future.
Sincerely,

Gentlemen :
The impact of the planned additional development
of the Park Lido property on traffic movement and
access to Hoag Hospital will surely be calamitous.
Allow reason to prevail and deny the project.

MEMORANDUM
OFFICE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY
May 19, 1982
Agenda Item No. D-1
To: -� Hon. Mayor & Members of the City Council
From: Michael H. Miller - City Attorney
Re: Park Lido Medical Building - Traffic Study
The above item has been called up for review at the
meeting of May 24, 1982. In that regard you have received
correspondence from attorney Dennis O'Neill on behalf of the
Applicant. In view of his correspondence, and certain questions
which arose at the Planning Commission, I am forwarding this
memorandum so that you are properly apprised as to the
limitations on council review imposed by the traffic phasing
ordinance.
Section 15.40.070 of the Municipal Code relative to the
traffic phasing ordinance provides that the City Council' s right
of review is limited to the evidence presented before, and the
findings of the Planning 'Commission. Further, there are no
provisions in the traffic phasing ordinance authorizing the
imposition Of conditions that normally could be imposed only upon
a land use which was not consistent with the City' s land use
regulations. Subject application is consistent.
One rationale for allowing Council review albeit in a
limited fashion as set forth in the ordinance could be for the
consideration of "a change in circumstances" that may arise prior
to the matter coming to the City Council. In this regard,
pursuant to the administrative procedures for implementing the
traffic phasing ordinance (council policy s-1) , the Banning-
Newport Ranch project would not be a "committed project" and
w
r ti •F/
therefore its potential appl+lication cannot be considered as
impacting on subject application. .
CONCLUSION
The City Council has little discretion to overrule the
Planning Commission on this issue. The Council would have to
determine that the findings of the Planning Commission were
unsupported by the evidence. Based on the technical input of
staff which comprises the evidence under the traffic phasing
ordinance this would not be possible on this application.
Further, conditions related to design and development cannot be
imposed.

development. In accordance with the Traffic Phasing Ordinance and City Policy
S-1, an I.C.U. analysis was performed to determine if one year after the com-
pletion of the project the intersections would be operating at acceptable levels.
This analysis indicates that all affected intersections, one year after project
completion, will be operating at .9000 or less.
Subsequent to the preparation of the Traffic Study , the Heritage
Bank Traffic Study was approved by the City and has become a com-
mitted project. The City Traffic Engineer has reviewed the Park
Lido Traffic Study and found that approval of the Heritage Bank
Traffic Study did not alter the conclusions of this study . All
intersections will be operating at . 9000 or Tess .
Staff Analysis
At the Planning Commission meeting, the Commission discussed at length
if the Traffic Study could be approved subject to a specific site plan
or conditions similar to those that would have been imposed on Use
Permit No. 2021 (Attachment No . 7) . The City Attorney has. indicated
that only those conditions recommended by the Planning Commission,
related to the Traffic Study are appropriate and that there is no way
in which the City can legally bind the applicants , or a future owner
of the property, to a conceptual design or a plan through this .appli -
cation .
The City previously has approved the following Traffic Studies without
detailed site plans :

to a conceptual design or to a project plan which does
not exist. Mr. Bob Burnham, Assistant City Attorney rney
concurred.
The public hearing opened in connection with this item
and Mr. Dennis O'Neil, representing the applicant,
appeared before the Commission. Mr. O'Neil stated that
they have prepared a conceptual plan which complies
with •the zoning. He stated that the structure will be
built within the height limit and will have
subterranean parking which satisfies many of the
concerns expressed by the surrounding property owners
and residents. He stated that they are committed to
the signalization at Placentia Avenue gnd Hospital Road
and improvement of the traffic circulation through the
use of signs. He stated that they concur with the
recommendations of the staff report.
Mr. Dick Hogan, representing the residential property
owners of the area, which include 140 apartment units
in Mediterranean Village and 99 condominiums in the
Park Lido Association, appeared before the Commission.
In addition, he stated that he is also representing Mr.
Ralph Gray, who owns 44 of the apartment units.
Mr. Hogan stated that they have viewed the conceptual
plan which appears to be satisfactory and is certainly
a substantial improvement over the original proposal.
He referred to the Traffic Phasing Plan and expressed
his concern that it does not cover the local traffic
systems. He suggested that the traffic exit onto
Flagship Road be controlled in such a way to prohibit
right turns. He stated that this is a safety concern
of the residents and the occupants of the convalescent
homes.
Mr. Hogan stated that the applicant is agreeable in
providing a left turn requirement from the parking lot
and that there be a stop sign on Placentia Avenue. He
stated that the City's traffic consultant has indicated
that because of the projected traffic on Placentia
Avenue,' this would be a reasonable consideration.

Commissioner Beek asked Mr. Hogan if they are asking
for a signal or a stop sign. Mr. Hogan stated that
they are requesting a stop sign in both directions at
the intersection of Placentia Avenue and Flagship Road.
Commissioner Allen stated that the Planning Commission
is only considering the request for the proposed
Traffic Study, not the plans which have been shown by
the applicant. She suggested that the Commission find
a way in which to condition the project, which will
satisfy the concerns of the surrounding residential
area.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Allen,
Mr. Hogan stated that they prefer the parking structure
as proposed, not an above ground parking structure.
Mr. Hogan suggested that the Commission accept a copy
of the applicant's plans, as informational plans,
which will represent the intent of the applicant.
Commissioner Allen suggested that perhaps a private
solution could be considered between the applicant and
the residents of the area. Mr. Hogan stated that .they
feel that the items which they have requested are
consistent with the Traffic Phasing Plan.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner King,
Mr. Don Webb, City Engineer, stated that he would not

Mr. William Kunzman of Kunzman Associates, the City's
Traffic Consultant who performed the traffic impact

was utilized in determining the ingress and egress of
the project. Mr. Fred 'Talarico, Environmental
Coordinator, stated that Figure 2 shows the current,
pre-existing driveways on the site. Commissioner
Balalis expressed his concern that the traffic
distribution of the existing project may be totally

Mr. Don Webb stated that in this particular analysis,
the intention of the City Traffic Engineer was that all

In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis, Mr. Bob Burnham, Assistant City Attorney,
stated that it is his understanding that questions of
access do not have any impact upon the numbers of the•
traffic study. Planning Director Hewicker stated that
the staff has not had the opportunity to view the
conceptual .plan as developed' by the applicant.
Commissioner Winburn asked why Hospital Road and
Placentia Avenue were not involved in the Traffic
Study. Mr. Kunzman stated that these intersections are
not on the critical list. Mr. Talarico stated that the
critical list specifically refers to signalized
intersections.
Commissioner .King suggested that the project
description contained on Page 1 of the Traffic Study
should be 'accepted as identifying the proposed
development. He stated that this description is what
the Traffic Study addressed in its analysis of the
project. Mr. Burnham stated that this would not
impose a requirement that the project be built in that
manner.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek,
Mr. Webb stated that Hospital Road and Placentia Avenue
are secondary streets. Commissioner Beek stated that
Figure 2 of the Traffic Study is irrelevant, because
the project traffic distribution is based on Figure 3
which shows that all of the traffic will be exiting on
Flagship Road and none of the traffic will be exiting
on Hospital Road.

Planning Director Hewicker stated that the traffic

does not have the authority to direct that there be
right or left turns out of the driveways, or to close
any of the driveways. Mr. Burnham concurred and stated
that a private agreement as suggested by Commissioner
Allen would not be feasible either.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek,
Mr. Kunzman referred to Appendix C of the ICU work
sheets, Page 39, and explained how the figure .8929 was
calculated.
Ms. Nancy Skinner, resident of 724 Highland Drive,
suggested that if the applicant were to design this
building a few inches higher than the height limit, the
application would then have to be approved by the
Commission and these requirements could be legally
imposed.
Mr. Mike Johnson, resident of 220 Nice Lane, stated
that this area is very congested with traffic. He
expressed his concern that the cumulative affects of
the traffic impacts for all of the developments in the
West Newport area must be considered. He stated that
if the Beeco/Banning Ranch proposal is approved by the
voters, it will have a tremendous impact on the traffic
and will change all of the traffic counts that have
been presented.
Commissioner King stated that the committed projects
are included in the projections of the Traffic Study.
He stated that the Beeco/Banning Ranch proposal is not
a committed project because of the referendum.
Planning Director Hewicker explained the committed
projects in the area:
Mr. Webb stated that if the Beeco/Banning Ranch
proposal were to be included as a committed project,
the distribution would change substantially because it
provides for an additional intersection which would
cause a diversion of traffic off of Superior Avenue and
lower the ICU, which would allow more capacity in the
intersection.

APPLICANTS: Park Lido, Ltd. , Robert L. Wish, General Partner, Santa Ana
OWNERS: Same as applicants
Application
The McMahon Partnership has requested approval of a Traffic Study which will
allow the construction of a 65,269 sq.ft. medical office building. The
request being made is outlined below:
Acceptance of a Traffic Study prepared pursuant to Chapter 15.40 of
the Newport Beach Municipal Code ("Traffic- Phasing Ordinance") and
City Policy S-1 ("Administrative Guidelines for Implementing the
Traffic Phasing Ordinance") , and the approval of the project based
on the data contained therein for the ultimate purposes of issuance
of building and grading permits.
Background
The project is to be located at the northeast corner of Hospital Road and
Placentia Avenue across from Hoag Hospital. On January 22, 1982, the Planning
Commission approved Use Permit No. 2021 and- a Traffic Study for the
construction of a 65,000 sq.ft. ± medical office building that exceeded the
basic height limit in the 32/50 Height Limitation District, permitted roof
parking, and waived a portion of the required off-street parking spaces: Said
application also included a modification to the Zoning Code so as to allow the
use of cmipact car spaces for a portion of the project's required off-street
parking spaces, and the acceptance of an environmental document.
Copies of the Planning Commission minutes, staff reports and other
docmentation related to Use Permit No. 2021 if desired are available from the
Planning Department. (Please contact Fred Talarico at 640-2197) . The
R
TO: Planning 91ission - 2
applications were called up for review by the City Council. At the
February 22, 1982 City Council meeting, the applicants withdrew all of the
above described applications.
Traffic Study
The applicants have requested the Planning Camdssion's approval of a Traffic
Study for the purposes of issuance of building and grading permits in
conjunction with the construction of the project. The Traffic Study for the
proposed development has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 15.40 of the
Newport Beach Municipal Code ("Traffic, Phasing, Ordinance") and City Policy S-1
("Administrative Procedures for krplementing the Traffic Phasing Ordinance") .
A copy is attached and is summarized below:

The traffic analysis indicated that four (4) of the above intersections will
have traffic volume increases of greater than 1% as a result of the proposed
project development. in accordance' with the Traffic Phasing Ordinance and
City Policy S-1 an I.C.U. analysis was performed to determine if one year
after the completion of the project the intersections would be operating at
acceptable levels. This analysis indicates that all affected interestions,
one year after project completion, will be operating at .9000 or less.

2. Project Traffic Generation
The traffic generated by a site is determined by multiplying an
appropiate trip generation rate by the quantity of land use.
Trip generation rates are expressed in terms of trip ends per per-
son, trip ends per employee, trip ends per acre, trip ends per
dwelling, or trip ends per thousand square feet of floor area.
For this study, trip generation data was supplied by the City
of Newport Beach. Based on actual traffic counts at a medical •
office building at Hospital Road and Placentia, the City's study
indicates 30 trips per 1,000 square feet of floor area.
Table i provides trip generation information for the 65,269 square
foot building.

3. Project Traffic Distribution and Assignment
Traffic distribution is based on the directional orientation of
traffic, and then the traffic is assigned to specific roadways. '
It is based on the geographical location of residential concentra-
tions, along with commercial, business , and recreational opportu-
nities . Traffic distribution and assignment was provided by City
of Newport 'Beach staff.

4. One Percent Intersection Analysis
Seven critical intersections were analyzed as identified by City
staff. Table 2 lists the seven intersections , and provides a
summary of the One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis . Appendix A
contains the calculation sheets. Four intersections have the
one percent volume criteria exceeded:
Superior and Placentia
Superior and Pacific Coast Highway
Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road
Dover Drive and Pacific Coast Highway
The purpose of the One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis is to
extablish whether the project adds a volume that is greater than
one percent of a critical intersection' s approach volume. If.
less than one percent is added to all approaches of a critical
intersection, then no further analysis is necessary as specified
in the Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
As part of the one percent analysis , regional growth and committed
projects are included. Volume projections are made to. a point in
time one year after the project completion. This project' s comple-
tion date is 1983 , and traffic volumes are projected to 1984 .
Regional traffic has been forecasted in accordance with City pro-
cedures, and committed project traffic includes those projects
listed in Table 3.

5. Intersection Capacity Utilization Analysis
Of the four intersections exceeding the one percent criteria,
two are operating near or above 90 percent capacity. Superior
and Pacific Coast Highway is operating at 113 percent of
capacity, and Dover Drive and Pacific Coast Highway is operating
at 89. 69 percent of capacity.
Once the growth and committed traffic volumes are added to the
current traffic volumes, the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway
intersection is expected to be operating at 139 percent of its
estimated capacity. if the project traffic is added, it is anti-
cipated to be operating at 141 percent of its capacity. The
project adds very little to this already heavily impacted inter-
section.
When the growth and committed traffic is added to the Dover and
Pacific Coast Highway intersection it will operate at 109 per-
cent of capacity. Once the project traffic is added it will in-
crease slightly.
Appendix B contains the intersection capacity utilization work
sheets .

6. Project Related Improvements
In that the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is
impacted by other development projects and regional traffic, the
responsibility for the improvements recommended should be appor-
tioned in an equitable manner.
In the City of Newport Beach' s 1981 - 1982 budget, the improve-
ments of one southbound left lane, two southbound through lanes
and one southbound right lane to the Superior/Pacific Coast
Highway intersection have been included. It is anticipated that
construction will begin this fiscal year. other projects have
proposed the addition of one westbound through lane and one south-
bound right lane. This project proposes the restripping of the
northbound lanes to include three northbound through lanes. With
these improvements, the intersection will operate at .8929 .
The Dover and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is currently being
reconstructed. The proposed improvements include: three south-
bound left lanes,, one southbound right lane, and one southbound
through; two eastbound left lanes, and three eastbound through
lanes; one westbound right lane, one westbound left Pane and three
westbound through lanes. once these improvements are completed,
the intersection will operate at . 7650.

Table 5
PROJECT RELATED IMPROVEMENTS
Intersection Intersection Improvements
Superior and Pacific City improvements will create
Coast Highway one southbound left lane, two
southbound through lanes and
one southbound right lane.
Other projects are committed
to provide one southbound right
turn lane and one westbound
through lane. This project is
proposing restripping the north-
bound lanes to include three
northbound through through
lanes.
Dover and Pacific City-State highway project to
Coast Highway be completed in Spring of 1982.

Re: Park Lido Medical Bldg. Expansion ; Request for Cr, nuanpe ' ' .
Dear Planning Commissioners:
I have owned sixteen residental units in the above area fo-f---
approximately twelve years . Please give your full consideration
to the following requests:
1 . A review of the impact of the Medical Office expansion
on a fully developed residential neighborhood which has been in
existence- for at least sixteen or seventeen years. The owners and
r esidents of the area are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of their
properties and should not be subject to having their properties
devalued by probably doubled traffic and fumes . Please review my
attachrsd letter of Oct . 152 1981 .
2. Give the owners and residents in the area an opportunity to
review the site plans and traffic studies for ingress and egress to
the new development . De staff has informed me those will not be
available until Fri . Apr . 1b for the meeting to be held April 22 ,
1982.
3. 8ecause of time limitations for residents to study tfia project
and formulate their uositions ,I request that the matter be continued
for at least two weeks and prefurably four weeks . The residents '
group has been subject to hardship by the developer' s withdrawal
of plans on the evening the residents were represented by an expert .
4 . The residents request that the entrance anal exit to the
parking facility should be located on Hospital Hd , to prevent the
residential streets of- Flagship Rd and Oana lid from oecoming
thoroughfares in the residential areas . For the same reason we
request that if. there is consideration of an exit from a parking
bldg. onto Flagship , that no right turns onto Flagship be permitted.
Please consider the foregoing and give the residents an
opportunity to study the traffic study and plarining commission
staff report. Thank you for your consideration.
Very truly yours,
5uzarMe lilt Brien

Re: Permit No . 2021
Request for Environmental Impact Report For Porwit 2021
I am the owner of sixteen residental units located in the area referred
to as Newport Mediterranean Apts. located at Flagship lid. and Patrice ,
Hilaria Way and Dana Rd . My sixteen units ,are situated in four buildings
at 4200 Patrice , 4127 Hilaria and 4151 Hilaria, and 4223 Dana Rd. I
strongly object to the proposed permit No 2021 pursuant to which the
following new structures are to be added to the site now occupied by
the Park Lido Medical Building and parking lot:
1 . A new office building of approximate) sic b5 ,000 . ft. which
apparently will be approximately 84 76 of the size of the existing
Park Lido firedical Building have about 77 , 000 sq. ft.
2. A three or four level parking structure over 30 ft . high to be
located at the corner of Flagship and Patrice to provide parking
for ' both the existing and new building. This structure will be
approximately the size of a football field.
In my opinion the granting of permit No. 2021 would destroy the quality
of the residential neighborhood of the Newport IYlediterrenean Apts. and
the Park Lido Condominiums totaling 239 residences which have been
located there for approximately 14 and 18 years respectively . To permit
an 84% expansiun of office space and a huge parking structure over
destroy the aesthetic quality of the residential
thirty feet high; would de y q Y
neighborhood , create noise , fumes , all day long traffic congestion and
increased air pollution. Please note that a medical office building
involves a continuing huurly or half hourly turnover of cars in the
parking structure . In the past few years this residential area has
been subject to increased traffic_ frorn the following: 1 . expansion
of Hoag Hospital,, 2. construction of Villa Balboa ,u 3 . construction of
a large new medical ouiiding at Superior and Hospital rid. Thy
proposed new parking structure at Hughes Corporation on Dana Rd.
will add further traffic to an overburdened area.
My objections to Permit No . 2021 can be further detailed as follows:
1 . The 140 Newport Gediterranean Apts . constitute arr Established
Neighborhood in ex
Neig Y
istence for about 14 ears. All of these are deluxe
two and three vedroom units with many , amenities. There are thirty-five
Page Two d g U Iwu
Newport filed. fourpl*s each hijvi ig four duluxonits . Ten of these
Y3 foi.rplexes are locatud on Patrice Rd. which share - a common border with
the proposed 30 ft . high parking building , a height greater than the
two story fourplexes . The remaining apartment units are on Hilaria
way and Dana Rd. Of the total 140 apartments , one quarter ( or 35 ) are
spacious , two level , three bedroom, two bath Li)wf ln,ii •:: •, ; , ,i L.ios ,
fireplaces , separate dining rooms and laundry rooms. Another quarter
( or 35) are upstairs , single level , two bedroom two bath apartments.
The remaining half or seventy apartments aria spacious townhomos , two
levels with two large bedrooms , 12 baths , laundry hookups , walled
lower patios and upstairs balcolnies.
2 .The 9 Park Lido Condominiums Constitute an Established Neighborhood
in existence for about 18 years . They are spacious units with many
.amenities and double garages , and were built before the Park Lido
medical Bldg was constructed . Some of the Park Lioo condominium owners
anticipated that a park and teenis courts would be built on the site
of the Park Lido 6ledical Building.
3. Quality of Life Adversely Affected for the 236 kesidontial Units .
The foregoing 239 households are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of
their homes. To add the proposed medical building and parking structure
would destroy the quality of their homes and environment . The exisitng
Park Lido parking lot which is not used in the evenings and weekends
constitutes an area of open space and improves the air quality of the
nrea .Some condominiums and apartments on Flagship and Patrice have
mini ocean views from their second stories which will certainly be lost.
4. Devaluation of Property Values It is self evident that there would
be a decline in property values for the owners of the condominiums
and apartments if an unsightly parking structure over 30 ft . high
is built . It would destroy the aesthetic character- of the neighborhood.
The noise , fumes and continual traffic would make the neighborhood
Far less desirable resultinq in a decline in prupurty values.
For all the foregoing reasons I am requesting that, the pormit be
denied or• that an Environmental Impact Report be submitted.

Re: Park Lido Medical
Building Project
Dear Planning Commission Members :
On Feburary 7, 1982 my wife and I sent the attached
letter to all members of the City Council stating our
reasons for our objections to the addition of any more
buildings to the Park Lido Medical Building site.
We realize that the City Council rejected the prior
application for "over height" construction.
We now understand that the owner is having a traffic
study prepared by a consulting firm. Should certain•
conditions prevail in that study it is our understanding
that construction may proceed within the height limits.
We have not received a single communication as the result
of our letter of Feburary 7,1982. We are therefore attach-
ing copies of that letter to again voice our concerns and
objections to any additions that will increase the traffic
volume on Flagship Road in the amounts stated in that letter.
Any' traffic study which does not deal directly with the
concerns expressed in our letter to the Council must be
rejected as inadequate: the invironmental impact upon our
community is too great to ignore.
S'ncerely,yo �L

Res Park Lido Medical Office Project
Honorable Mayor Heather and Councilpersonss
In January 1982, my wife and I sent a letter to each member of your
Coucil and to each member of the Planning Commission. We expressed
our deep concern over the proposed expansion on the site of the Park
Lido Medical Building.
I explained in that letter that both my wife and I had been involved
for over 30 years in Traffic Safety with the Los Angeles City Schools.
We stated that we were opposed to any additional buildings` on the
site that would increase traffic and on-street parking in the Park
Lido and Mediterranean Village projects.
In my presentation to the Planning Commission, I indicated that the
Studies which had been made on behalf of the Project were made at
Intersections which should be of concern to the City, but which
were of little concern to the residents who must use Flagship Road
or Dana Street as the only means of ingress. and egress to and from
our community.
The intersections of Flagship Road at-Placentia; Placentia at Hos-
pital Roadt and Dana at Superior are vital to us .
There was no mention of any of these intersections in the Initial
Study prepared by Westec Services, Inc. or in the subsequent "Response
to• qusationa .
Section 2.1.2, paragraph 2, on page 9 of the Initial Study admits
the "Land use impacts may or may not result from the location of
the parking structure. ". We contend that it does not take a
professional to ascertain that great harm will be done to tho64rround-
pIrg community. The section goes on to state, "while proximity to the
residences is not the most desirable, a generous set back along the
affected streets has been provided as well as a fairly lush land-
scape scene and berms. "
Curbside parking is inevitable and will mean a great deal of pedes-
trian traffic on Patrice and Flagship Road, next to the parking
structure. Sidewalks should have been recommended or required as
a part of the conditions under which the Planning Commission gave its
approval of the project.
No mention has been made of any plans which the City may have to
ease the existing and future traffic problems at Flagship Road and
Placentia or at Hospital Road and Placentia.
y� ` - 2 - - .
No suggestions have been put forward as to how the two intersections
in such close proximity can be signalized to provide an orderly pro-
cession of vehicles on the three streets.
The Initial Study points out that the proposed parking structure
will not contain the required number of parking stalls. (p14, 2,3,2)
This means that the curbside parking referred to herein will definitely
occur.
In fact, multi-level parking structures are avoided whenever possible;
it is therefore , most likely that women will choose to park at our curbs
and walk to the buildings whenever they can find space at a curb,
Items "a" through "c" of Section 2.3.20 "Environmental Impacts",
deal with three major alternatives of providing temporary parking
during construction.
Two. of the proposals deal with the use of valet parking using lots
#1 and ,#2 on Superior and Coast Highway respectively. `
These suggestions cannot be taken seriously by anyone. It just is
not going to happen until our community streets are overloaded.
The use of curbside parking described in item "c", page 15, gives
the most realistic picture of what will occur during construction and
after completion of the project .
The Study ignores the problems associated with the parking of con-
struction workers ' vehicles. These people will grab the closest ourbside
Spaces because they will arrive earliest. This will force patients
out into our entire community. We will suffer the pangs of overparking
even in prohibited areas.
Any attempt to enforce parking laws will end up by giving tickets to
home owners who cannot find a space for their second oar in the village 1.
area,
"Project Driveway Use" on page A-25 states that 55% of the daily project
traffic will be oriented to Newport Blvd, and the heaviest driveway use
is expected to be the Hospital Road access.
No mention is made of other access locations. However, 45% is ex-
pected to use other access locations; that is obvious. This can
only mean that Flagship Road and Dana Street will carry this 45% to their
juncture with Placentia and Superior respectively. We find no studies
covering these intersections, and yet this structure will add at
least 881 more trips that will be added to existing traffic. (25% of
1958) .
The proposed 651269 square foot building will generate 1958 trips
daily according to the Study (see page All) . The existing 77,000
square foot building which Is 1.18 times the size of the proposed
structure evidently generates 2310 trips daily, for a total of 4268
trips when all construction is finished.
If the foregoing figures are reasonably accurate then the present
1040 cars which now use Flagship Road .(45%) will be increased by
881 for a total of 1921 trips daily on Flagship Road, Thus, an
• - 3 - •
47 average of 240 cars per hour will be using Flagship Road plus the
traffic„generated within our communities by residents.
There will be many "U-turns" and mid-block turnabouts by those who
choose to park at our curbs. Accidents are inevitable.
The "Project Traffic Distribution" shows that 25% (1069) of the
4268 daily trips will go northeast on Superior. Most of these
drivers will use Flagship Road to Dana and turn right onto Superior.
This they will do to avoid the traffic jams at Placentia and Flag-
ship Road- and the signal at Placentia and Superior.
The project study indicates as stated previously that 55% will use
Hospital Road accesses to reach Newport Boulevard. We seriously
doubt this, because 55% of 4268 daily trips to both medical build-
ings means that there will be 2347 potential left turns from mid-
block accesses onto Hospital Road in an eight-hour period or 293
such turns per hour.
It is reasonable to assume that those drivers who will hesitate to
turn left onto Hospital Road against traffic accelerating uphill
or coasting downhill will choose to use Flagship Road. This can
easily negate the assumption that 55% will use the Hospital Road
accesses. It will also increase the volume on Flagship Road.
We ask that you deny this permit and change the zoning to resident-
ial.
I close with one very important question, "Where is there a law
that says that one property owner can profit at the expense of all
within the community?"
We are sending this letter because we will be in San Francisco on
a business trip at the time of your hearing on this project,
Sincerely yours„

15.40.010 Finding. The City Council of the City of Newport Beach
finds that congestion of streets and intersections, traffic accidents,
interference with emergency vehicles, and general overcrowding of existing
neighborhoods have resulted, or will soon result, from inadequate phasing of
commercial, industrial and residential growth, in relation to traffic capacity,
which is harmful to the public health,safety and general welfare. (Ord. 1787
§ 1 (part), 1979: Ord. 1765 § 1 (part), 1978).
15.40.020 Purpose. The City Council of the City of Newport Beach
declares that aggravation of these conditions can be avoided, eliminated or
alleviated by enacting the following, designed to permit major development
only in those areas of the City of Newport Beach where adequate
transportation facilities exist, are being implemented, or will be installed in
conjunction with the development which will accommodate the traffic
generated by such development, or where other trip generation reductions
are adopted which will alleviate traffic impacts. (Ord. 1787 § 1 (part), 1979:
Ord. 1765 § 1 (part), 1978).
15.40.030 Traffic Impact Limitation. (A) Limitation. No building or
grading permit shall be issued, and no construction shall be commenced, for
any project not exempt from this Chapter until the Planning Commission of

service on any "major," "primary-modified" or"primary" street;or
• (ii) shall be excepted pursuant to subsection (D) of this section;
provided, however, that such finding shall state the exception granted and
the facts which justify the exception.
. - (B) Hearing. The Planning Commission shall hold a public hearing,
noticed in the manner provided in Section 20.80.050(B) of the Newport
Beach Municipal Code, and shall make its written findings supported by the
weight of the evidence.
(C) Exemption. Any commercial or industrial project which has a gross
floor area equal to or less than 10,000 square feet,or any residential project
of 10 dwelling units or less shall be exempt from the requirements of this
Chapter.
(D) Exceptions. The Planning Commission shall except any project
from the requirements of this Chapter:
(i) if it shall find that the City has issued a building or grading permit
for the project prior to the effective date of this Chapter and that the person
to whom such permit was issued has in good faith and in reliance upon such
permit diligently commenced construction and performed and incurred
substantial liabilities for work and materials necessary therefor. No change

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTING
THE TRAFFIC PHASING ORDINANCE.
Z. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
A. General:
These procedures apply to all commercial or industrial projects which
have a gross floor area greater than 10,000 sq. ft. , and all residen-
tial projects of more than ten dwelling units.
B. Evaluating Projects:
1. The applicant files a request for consideration of the entire pro-
ject, under the provisions of the Ordinance, with the Planning
Department. The request must be accompanied by a project descrip-
tion, project phasing schedule, site plan, and fees as set by the
City Council.
2. A traffic analysis shall then be prepared by a qualified traffic
engineer according to the methodology approved' by the City Council.
C. Staff Recommendation:
1. The City's Traffic Engineer will review the report prepared by the
consultant and transmit the findings and worksheet to the Planning
C Department for presentation to the Planning Commission.
D. Planning Commission Review and Findings:
The Planning Commission shall review the determination and recommenda-
tions of the Traffic Engineer and the Planning Department, at a duly-
noticed public hearing, and make one of the following findings:
1. The City has issued a building, or grading permit for the project
prior to May 8, 1978, and that the person to whom such permit was
issued has, in good faith and in reliance upon such permit,
diligently commenced construction and performed and incurred
substantial liabilities for work and materials necessary therefor.
No change, causing a substantial increase in traffic volumes, has
been made in such project, except in accordance with the provisions
of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance; or
2. The traffic projected one year after project completion, during any
2.5 hour peak traffic period on each leg of each critical inter-
section, will be increased less than 1% by traffic generated from
the project during that 2.5 hour period; or
3. A traffic analysis has. been performed and accepted. The traffic
analysis was based on the projected street system and projected
traffic volumes one year after completion of the project or
portion of the project for which the traffic analysis was performed.
The traffic analysis has shown that, at that time, the additional
traffic generated by the project, or portion of the project,
including any approved trip generation reduction measures:
•ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES*R IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC PHOG ORDINANCE - Page 2 S-1
a. will neither cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of
traffic service on any "major", "primary-modified", or "primary"
street; or
b. may cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic
service on one or more "major", "primary-modified", or "primary"
streets; or
c. may cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic ser-
vice on one or more "major", "primary-modified", or "primary"
streets; however, the benefits outweigh the anticipated nega-
tive impact on transportation facilities, for the following
reasons: (specify)
E. •Approval of Applications:
A simple majority vote by the Planning Commission, subject to City
Council review or appeal, is required for finding D.1, D.2, D.3.a. , or
D.3.b. A four-fifths majority vote by the Planning Commission (or by
the City Council on appeal or review) is required for finding D.3.c.
F. Appeals:
1. The determination of the-Planning Commission may be appealed to
the City Council pursuant to the procedure set forth in Section
20.80..070 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
2. The City Council shall have a Right of Review as set forth in
Section 20.80.075 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
II. OUTLINE OF METHODOLOGY FOR TRAFFIC ANALYSES
Designation of Impacted Intersections and Determination A. Desig of Project p ,
Impact for 2.5 Hour Peak Period:-
1. The Traffic Engineer will determine which intersections will be
affected by the proposed project according to its size and geographic
location.
2. An analysis will be done whereby it will be determined if one year
after completion of the project, or portions of the project for which
the traffic analysis is being performed, the project (including
those portions for which traffic analyses have been previously
approved) will generate one percent or more of the projected traffic
volumes for each leg of each impacted intersection during that 2.5
hour peak period. If less than a one percent increase is demonstrated
for each leg, then the analysis is concluded, and finding I.D.2.
may be made.
B. If the initial Traffic Study indicated the project, or portion of the
project, for which the traffic analysis is being performed, one year
after completion may generate one percent or more of projected traffic
volumes on one or more legs of any impacted intersection, then the
Traffic Engineer or a qualified consultant will analyze the intersection
capacity utilization for the impacted intersection(s) :
t
f
TOY ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUROOR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC KING ORDINANCE - Page 3 S-1 'h
The report will indicate the following:
C, 1. Existing traffic.
2. Projected increases in regional traffic.
3. Projected traffic from committed projects that will be completed
before one year after the completion date of the project or portion
of the project for which the traffic analysis is being performed.
4. Traffic generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
without trip generation reduction measures.
5. Traf,fic 'generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
with approved trip generation reduction measures.
C. Where a full traffic analysis is performed under Section IIB, the
following I.C.U. calculations shall be performed for each impacted
intersection:
1. The existing I.C.U.
2. The I.C.U., with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion. This Z.C.U. calculation
shall be based on all projected traffic sources except the proposed
project.
C 3. The I.C.U. , with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion, based on all sources of
traffic, including traffic generated by the proposed project, with
approved trip generation reduction measures.
III. DEFINITIONS AND ANALYSIS RESTRAINTS
A. Traffic System Improvements
Traffic system improvements may be included in the traffic analysis
for a proposed project, provided that:
1. The improvement will be completed no more than one year after com-
pletion of the project or project phase for which the traffic
analysis is being performed; and
2. The improvement is included in the Circulation Element of the General
Plan, and is defined sufficiently therein to permit an I.C.U. analysis
to be performed; or
3. The improvement design has been approved by the City Council, and
is defined sufficiently to permit an I.C.U. analysis to be performed.
B. Projected Capacity Increases from Traffic System Improvements
J Jr• ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUREOR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC PE&G ORDINANCE - Page 4 S-1
•J For purposes of the traffic analysis, 70% of the incremental increase
in intersection capacity (based on a capacity of 1600 vehicles per hour
of green time for each full traffic lane) shall be utilized. Upon C.
completion of the improvement, traffic volume counts shall be updated,
and any additional available capacity may then be utilized in future
traffic analyses.
C. Traffic Volumes
1. Traffic volumes shall be based on up-to-date estimates of traffic
volumes expected to exist one year after completion of the project,
or portion of the project, for which the traffic analysis is being
performed. Such estimates shall include existing traffic as deter-
mined by annual field counts plus traffic generated by previously
approved projects or portions of projects expected to exist in the
same time period plus estimated increases in regional traffic.
If the intersection configuration 'being analyzed is the ultimate
configuration consistent with the Circulation Element or otherwise
approved by the City Council, then the traffic volumes used in the
analysis shall include total traffic expected to be generated from
all previously approved projects even if they will not be completed
at the time the subject project is completed.
2. The incremental regional traffic for the time period between the
i
date of existing counts and one year after project completion will
be estimated based on the rate projected by the traffic model or on
a growth projection developed by the Traffic Engineer and approved
by the Planning Commission.
3. For making the 1% test of II.A.2. , traffic volumes shall not be
used which exceed the capacity of the circulation system specified
in the General Plan.
D. Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the project shall be based on standard
trip generation values established by the City Traffic Engineer with
the approval of the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal or
review. These trip generation figures may be modified only when the
applicant proposes specific, permanent measures that will reduce traffic
generated by the project, provided that:
1. The applicant describes in writing, in advance of the traffic analysis,
the proposed measure, the estimated reduction in trip generation
that will result, and the basis for the estimate. The estimate
must be approved by the Planning Commission or City Council on
appeal or review before the trip generation figures may be reduced.
2. The applicant provides the Planning Commission with a written
assurance that the proposed trip generation reduction measure will
be permanently implemented, and agrees to make said permanent
implementation a condition for project approval.
S
ti
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUR*-OR IMPLEMENTING THE 'TRAFFIC WNG ORDINANCE - Page 5 S-1 ' ^
E. Traffic Distribution
CTraffic distribution shall be based on tha traffic network expected
to exist one year after project completion including those portions of
the network associated with previously approved projects or portions
of projects expected to exist at that time.
F. Improvements or Modifications to the Circulation System
If the applicant wishes to propose quantifiable improvements or changes
to the circulation system, which may not appear to be strictly consis-
tent with the Circulation Element, or special assumptions as a basis
for the traffic analysis, he shall provide a description of such pro-
posals in writing to the Planning Commission, along with supporting
data justifying their use, in advance of the ,traffic analysis. Such
proposals may then be, used in the traffic analysis if they are approved
by the Planning Commission and the City Council.
IV. ISSUANCE OF PERMITS
Permits may be issued for all or a portion of a project after an appropriate
finding under I.D. has been made.
A. Grading Permits
Grading permits may be issued prior to performance of the traffic analy-
sis if vesting rights associated with grading are waived by applicant.
B. Building Permits
Where traffic system improvements have been included in the traffic
analysis, building permits may be issued only after traffic system
improvement timing has been confirmed as follows:
1. It has been budgeted and committed for development by the City,;, or
2. The State or County or other governmental agency making the improve-
ment has accepted bids; or
3. The improvement is to be installed or guaranteed by the applicant
in conjunction with the development project and is approved by the
appropriate governmental jurisdictions.

Re : Park Lido Medical Building - Traffic Study /
Dear Mayor Heather and Members of the City Council : G�
I represent Park Lido, Ltd. , applicants for approval of
a traffic study relating to a proposed 65, 269 square foot
medical office building to be located at the northeast
corner of Hospital Road and Placentia Avenue across from
Hoag Hospital . A similar project requiring a use permit to
exceed the basic height limit with an above-grade parking
structure was previously before the City Council for review
on February 22, 1982. At that time , the project was viewed
by some as undesirable due to its design and perceived
adverse traffic impacts on the surrounding streets. The use
permit and traffic study relating to the project were with-
drawn prior to submission to the Council for decision. This
was done in order to allow the applicant the opportunity to
examine a possible modification of the project design which
would be more compatible with the neighborhood.
The applicant has in fact succeeded in accomplishing
such a redesign which is believed to overcome most of the
concerns of those working and residing in the area. The new
project contains approximately the same square footage as
the old; however , it now will be limited in height to two
stories with subterranean parking , thus eliminating the need
for a use permit or other City discretionary approvals.
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
May 17 , 1982
Page Two
On April 22, 1982, the Planning Commission after review-
ing the evidence and testimony presented at a public hearing,
found that the traffic study had been prepared in accordance
with chapter 15. 40 of the Municipal Code and City Council
Policy S-1 and further that the proposed project would
neither cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of
traffic service on any "major , " "primary-modified, " or
"primary" street. Having made those findings, the Planning
Commission approved the subject traffic study. The City
Council has now once again called up for review the Park
Lido Medical Building traffic study much to the bewilderment
of the applicant in light of the Planning Commission's
decision.
I have researched the provisions of the Traffic Phasing
Ordinance ("TPO" ) and the Administrative Procedures for
implementing that ordinance. While it is clear from a read-
ing of the ordinance and procedures that the Council has the
right to review the action of the Planning Commission, it is
equally clear that such review is "limited to evidence pre-
sented before, and the findings of; the Planning Commission. "
The point therefore is, if the Planning Commission found
from the evidence that the subject traffic study satisfies
the criteria of the TPO and Policy S-1, there seems to be no
discretion but for the City Council to make similar findings
and also approve the traffic study. This, of course, is the
legal position of the applicant.
It needs to be pointed out that the applicant has made
every good faith effort to address and satisfy the concerns
expressed by the medical community and the residents working
and living near the project site. Besides a redesign of the
building at considerable additional expense to the applicant
which will result in limiting the height to two stories and
providing underground parking , the applicant has made and
continues to make the following commitments:
1. Full cooperation and financial assistance in
the installation of any traffic safety or directional
signing required by the City, including a traffic signal
at Hospital Road and Placentia. The applicant will
also pay the costs to install any new stop signs at the
intersection of Placentia and Flagship deemed appropri-
ate by the City.

Members of the City Council

2. Installation of on-site directional and
informational signs to discourage traffic exiting the
medical building from using the surrounding residential
surface streets.
3. No access to the project from Patrice.
4. Free parking for employees of the medical
building to encourage on-site parking and discourage
parking on the surrounding residential streets.
5 . Full 24-hour guarded security system to be
maintained on the project site and within the under-
ground parking structure, including controlled ingress
and egress.
6. Compliance with applicable construction_
schedules, noise abatement measures, and other require-
ments as set forth as conditions to the prior use per-
mit relating to the former project.
On behalf of the applicant, I am respectfully request-
ing that the City Council uphold the decision of the
Planning Commission and approve the traffic study with the
same findings. To do otherwise , in my opinion, would be
legally unjust in light of the express language contained in
the Traffic Phasing Ordinance and implementing policy and
further would be morally unfair in view of the many conces-
sions made by the applicant to alleviate the concerns of the
surrounding community.

Dear Mr. Newidker,
I am a property owner of apartments in the area. adjacent
to the Park Lido Medical Building. I am aware that the

Permit but has alternative plans for the expansion of
the Park Lido Medical Building. Accordingly , I wish to
be notified of meetings and conferences with respect
to alternative proposals by the applicants and their

At this time I wish to reiterate my request that your

into the funding for proposed street improvements and
land acquisitions therefor.
Thank you for your attention to this request .

Dear Commissioners :
Quick access to Hoag Hospital is important to all of us .
Unfortunately not all vehicles bringing emergency patients to
Hoag Hospital have the benefit of a siren to assist them.
There is already traffic congestion during peak hours at
two intersections adjacent to the hospital (Hospital Rd. and
Placentia Ave . ; Hospital Rd. and Newport Blvd.) . Increasing
congestion can be anticipated near the hospital entrance because
of more automobile traffic from Costa Me'sa using Placentia Ave .
as a thoroughfare . Future construction of the second Hoag tower,
the Heritage Bank building, the Hughes project, the Mollard Medi-
cal Building and probably the Park Lido project have been allowed
to proceed without measuring their impact on the intersection of
Hospital Rd. and Placentia Ave .
The Beeco project might generate more area traffic than
planned if much of the 235 ,000 square feet designated as commercial
I
n Area Two is utilized for medical offices .
Although the proposed traffic signal at Hospital Rd. and
Placentia Ave . might temporarily mitigate traffic problems , ultimately
in the next five to ten years traffic will increasingly stifle access
to Hoag Hospital .
I believe that in the future it is important to require nearby
projects to include traffic impact studies on the intersection at
Hospital Rd. and Placentia Ave . Perhaps more stringent traffic
requirements than those outlined in the Traffic Phasing ordinanr.e=
may be needed for intersections adjacent to the Hospital. .
Hoag Hospital will invariably increase in size and the surrounding
surface streets will be increasingly congested. Unless an Area Plan
addressing contingency plans for hospital access is considered now,
there will be few options available for alleviating the problem in
the future .

Dear Commissioners,
I am writing to express to you my continuing and increased
concern of the impact on the traffic, particularly along
Hospital road, but also along Placentia, which will be caused
by the number of proposed new construction projects in our
immediate area, including the Beeco projectf Hoag second
tower, Hughes Aircraft, Mallard Medical, the Heritage Bank
Building and the Park Lido Medical Building.
Despite the opinions of the Traffic Review Group, we have
significant traffic problems at present and the increased
traffic I am afraid will lead us to have many traffic jams
and an increased number of accidents.
I would encourage you to look at the total area, as I know
you are, so that we may have an optimal development plan.

Dear Mayor Heather and City Council Members :
RE: Permit #2021
Park Lido Ltd.
Underground Parking"Facility
In reference to construction of the Park Lido Ltd. Underground
Parking Facility, I am..-bringing to your attention the follow-
ing items:
1. Newport Villa West is adjacent to the Park Lido Ltd.
Underground Facility and we have 100 permanent Geriatric
Residents between the ages of 75 and 102 years . Many of
these residents are prone to upper respiratory problems
which could be greatly aggravated by the required excavation
proceedures needed to construct the Parking Facility.
We urge you to make certain, prior to construction start,
that adequate steps are implemented to assure us that the
dust and noise will be kept at a minimum.
2. Because of increased activity at this building•' site,
we need assurance that the City of Newport Beach will provide
adequate traffic control and safety measures so that at no
time, during this construction, will. any of our residents
be in undue jeopardy because of this increase of traffic,
noise and dust.
Thank you for your consideration in this most pressing and
urgent problem confronting us because of the construction of
this Parking Facility.

Re : Park Lido Medical Building - Traffic Study
Dear Mayor Heather and Members of the City Council :
I represent Park Lido, Ltd. , applicants for approval of
a traffic study relating to a proposed 65 ,269 square foot
medical office building to be located at the northeast
corner of Hospital Road and Placentia Avenue across from
Hoag Hospital. A similar project requiring a use permit to
exceed the basic height limit with an above-grade parking
structure was previously before the City Council for review
on February 22, 1982. At that time, the project was viewed
by some as undesirable due to its design and perceived
adverse traffic impacts on the surrounding streets. The use
permit and traffic study relating to the project were with-
drawn prior to submission to the Council for decision. This
was done in order to allow the applicant the opportunity to
examine a possible modification of the project design which
would be more compatible with the neighborhood.
The applicant has in fact succeeded in accomplishing
such a redesign which is believed to overcome most of the
concerns of those working and residing in the area. The new
project contains approximately the same square footage as
the old; however , it now will be limited in height to two
stories with subterranean parking , thus eliminating the need
for a use permit or other City discretionary approvals.
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
May 17 , 1982
Page Two
On April 22, 1982, the Planning Commission after review-
ing the evidence and testimony presented at a public hearing ,
found that the traffic study had been prepared in accordance
with chapter 15. 40 of the Municipal Code and City Council
Policy S-1 and further that the proposed project would
neither cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of
traffic service on any "major ," "primary-modified, " or
"primary" street. Having made those findings, the Planning
Commission approved the subject traffic study. The City
Council has now once again called up for review the Park
Lido Medical Building traffic study much to the bewilderment
of the applicant in light of the Planning Commission' s
decision.
I have researched the provisions of the Traffic Phasing
Ordinance ("TPO") and the Administrative Procedures for
implementing that ordinance. While it is clear from a read-
ing of the ordinance and procedures that the Council has the
right to review the action of the Planning Commission, it is
equally clear that such review is "limited to evidence pre-
sented before, and the findings of, the Planning Commission. "
The point therefore is, if the Planning Commission found
from the evidence that the subject traffic study satisfies
the criteria of the TPO and Policy S-1, there seems to be no
discretion but for the City Council to make similar findings
and also approve the traffic study. This, of course, is the
legal position of the applicant.
It needs to be pointed out that the applicant has made
every good faith effort to address and satisfy the concerns
expressed by the medical community and the residents working
and living near the project site. Besides a redesign of the
building at considerable additional expense to the applicant

CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Planning Department
SUBJECT: Traffic Study (Public Hearing) '
Request to consider a Traffic Study for a proposed 65,269 sq.ft.
medical office building.
LOCATION: A portion of .Lot 169, Block 2 of Irvine's Subdivision, located at
351 Hospital Road on the northeasterly corner of Hospital Road
and Placentia Avenue, opposite Hoag Memorial Hospital.
ZONE: A-P
APPLICANTS: Park Lido, Ltd. , Robert L. Wish, General Partner, Santa Ana
OWNERS: Same as applicants
Application
The McMahon Partnership has requested approval of a Traffic Study which will
allow the construction of a 65,269 sq.ft. medical office building. The
request being made is outlined below:
Acceptance of a Traffic Study prepared pursuant to Chapter 15.40 of
the Newport Beach Municipal Code ("Traffic Phasing Ordinance") and
City Policy S-1 ("Administrative Guidelines for Implementing the
Traffic Phasing Ordinance") , and the approval of the project based
on the data contained therein for the ultimate purposes of issuance
of building and grading permits.
Background
The project is to be located at the northeast corner of Hospital Road and
Placentia Avenue across from Hoag Hospital. On January 22, 1982, the Planning
Commission approved Use Permit No. 2021 and a Traffic Study for the
construction of a 65,000 sq.ft. ± medical office building that exceeded the
basic height limit in the 32/50 Height Limitation District, permitted roof
parking, and waived a portion of the required off-street parking spaces: Said
application also included a modification to the Zoning Code so as to allow the
use of compact car spaces for a portion of the project's required off-street
parking spaces, and the acceptance of an environmental document.
Copies of the Planning Commission minutes, staff reports and other
documentation related to Use Permit No. 2021 if desired are available from the
Planning Department. (Please contact Fred Talarico at 640-2197) . The
TO: Planning Oni.ssion - 2 • '
applications were called up for review by the City Council. At the
February 22, 1982 City Council meeting, the applicants withdrew all of the
above described applications.
Traffic Study
The applicants have requested the Planning Commission's approval of a Traffic
Study for the purposes of issuance of building and gradisig pen-Li
in
conjunction with the construction of the, project. The Traffic Study for the
proposed development has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 15.40 of the
Newport Beach Municipal Code ("Traffic Phasing ordinance") .and City Policy S-1
("Administrative Procedures for Inplementing the Traffic Phasing Ordinance") .
A copy is attached and is summarized below:

The traffic analysis indicated that four (4) of the above intersections will
have traffic volume increases of greater than 1% as a result of the proposed
project development. In accordance with the Traffic Phasing ordinance and
City Policy S-1 an I.C.U. analysis was performed to determine if one year
after the conpletion of the project the intersections would be operating at
acceptable levels. This analysis indicates that all affected interestions,
one year after project completion, will be operating at .9000 or less.

2. Project Traffic Generation
The traffic generated by a site is determined by multiplying an
appropiate trip generation rate by the quantity of land use.
Trip generation rates are expressed in terms of trip ends per per-
son, trip ends per employee, trip ends per acre, trip ends per
dwelling, or trip ends per thousand square feet of floor area•.
For this study, trip generation data was supplied by the City
of Newport Beach. Based on actual traffic counts at a medical
office building at Hospital Road and Placentia, the City's study
indicates 30 trips per 1,000 square feet of floor area.
Table 1 provides trip generation information for the 65,269 square
foot building.

3. Project Traffic Distribution and Assignment
Traffic distribution is based on the directional orientation of
traffic, and then the traffic is assigned to specific roadways .
It is based on the geographical location of residential concentra-
tions, along with commercial, business , and recreational opportu-
nities. Traffic distribution and assignment was provided by City
of Newport 'Beach staff.

4. One Percent Intersection Analysis
Seven critical intersections were analyzed as identified by City
staff. Table 2 lists the seven intersections , and provides a
summary of the One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis . Appendix A
contains the calculation sheets . Four intersections have the
one percent volume criteria exceeded:
Superior and Placentia
Superior and Pacific Coast Highway
Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road
Dover Drive and Pacific Coast Highway
The purpose of the One Percent Traffic Volume Analysis is to
extablish whether the project adds a volume that is greater than
one percent of a critical intersection's approach volume. If.
less than one percent is added to all approaches of a critical
intersection, then no further analysis is necessary as specified
in the Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
As part of the one percent analysis , regional growth and committed
projects are included. Volume projections are made to. a point in
time one year after the project completion. This project' s comple-
tion date is 1983 , and traffic volumes are projected to 1984 .
Regional traffic has been forecasted in accordance with City pro-
cedures, and committed project traffic includes those projects
listed in Table 3.

5. Intersection Capacity Utilization Analysis
Of 'the four intersections exceeding the one percent criteria,
two are operating near or above 90 percent capacity. Superior
and Pacific Coast Highway is operating at 113 percent of
capacity, and Dover Drive and Pacific Coast Highway is operating
at 89. 69 percent of capacity.
Once the growth and committed traffic volumes are added to the
current traffic volumes, the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway
intersection is expected to be operating at 139 percent of its
estimated capacity. If the project traffic is added, it is anti-
cipated to be operating at 141 percent of its capacity. the
project adds very little to this already heavily impacted inter-
section.
When the growth and committed traffic is added to the Dover and
Pacific Coast Highway intersection it will operate at 109 per-
cent of capacity. Once the project traffic is added it will in-
crease slightly.
Appendix B contains the intersection capacity utilization work
sheets .

6. Project Related Improvements _
In that the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is
impacted by other development projects and regional traffic, the
responsibility for the improvements recommended should be appor-
tioned in an equitable manner.
In the City of Newport Beach' s 1981 - 1982 'budget, the improve-
ments of one southbound left lane, two southbouna through lanes
and one southbound right lane to the Superior/Pacific Coast
Highway intersection have been included. it is anticipated that
construction will begin this fiscal year. Other projects have
proposed the addition of one westbound through lane and one south-
bound right lane. This project proposes the restripping of the
northbound lanes to include three northbound through lanes. With
these improvements, the intersection will operate at . 8929 .
The Dover and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is currently being
reconstructed. The proposed improvements include: three south-
bound left lanes, one southbound right lane, and one southbound
through; two eastbound left lanes, and three eastbound through
lanes; one westbound right lane, one westbound left lane and three
westbound through lanes. Once these improvements are completed,
the intersection will operate at . 7650.
10 ��
Table 5
PROJECT RELATED IMPROVEMENTS
Intersection Intersection Improvements
Superior and Pacific City improvements will create
Coast Highway one southbound left lane, two
southbound through lanes and
one southbound right lane.
Other projects are committed
to provide one southbound right
turn lane and one westbound
through lane. This project is
proposing restripping the north-
bound lanes to include three
northbound through through
lanes .
Dover .and Pacific City-State highway project to
Coast Highway be completed in Spring of 1982.

Re: Park Lido Medical Bldg . Expansion ; Request for Ccn

Dear Planning Commissioners:
I have owned sixteen residental units in the above area fo'f--'
approximately twelve years . Please give your full consideration
to the following requests:
1 . A review of the impact of the fdedical Office expansion
on a fully developed residential neighborhood which has been in
existence for at least sixteen or seventeen years . The owners and
r esidents of the area are entitled to the quiet enjoyment o'f their
properties and should not be subject to having their properties
devalued by probably doubled traffic and fumes . Please review my
attachod letter of Oct . 15 , 1981 .
2. Give the owners and residents in the area an opportunity to
review the site plans and traffic studies for ingress and egress to
the new development . the staff has informed mo tliuse will not be
available until Fri . Apr . 16 for the meeting to be held April 22 ,
1982 .
3. 8ecause of time limitations for residents to study tha project
and formulatu their positions , I request that the matter be continued
for at least two weeks and preferably four weeks . The residents '
group has been subject to hardship by the developer ' s withdraud
of plans on the evening the residents were represented by an expert .
4 . The residents request that the entrance an•d exit to the
parking facility should be located on Hospital Rd , to prevent the
residential streets of- Flagship Rd and Oana lid from oecom.ing
thoroughfares in the residential areas . For the same reason we
request that if there is consideration of an exit from a parking
bldg. onto Flagship , that no right turns onto Flagship be p::rmitted.
Please consider the foregoing and give the residents an
opportunity to study the traffic study and planning commission
staff report. Thank you for your consideration.
Very truly yours , /

Re: Permit Wo . 2021
Request for Environmental Impact Report for Permit 2021
I am the owner of sixteen residental units located in the area referred
to as Newport Mediterranean Apts . located at Flagship lid . and Patrice ,
Hilaria Way and Dana Rd . My sixteen units are situated in four buildings
at 4200 Patrice, 4127 Hilaria and 4151 Hilaria , and 4223 Dana Rd. I
strongly object to the proposed permit No 2021 pursuant to which the
following new structures are to be added to the site now occupied by
the Park Lido uredical Building and parking lot:
1 . A new office buildinq of approximately bb , 000 sq. ft. which
apparently will be approximately 84 `o of the size of the existing
Park Lido f1redical Building have about 77 , 000 sq. ft.
2. A three or four level parking structure over 30 ft-. high to be
located at the corner of Flagship and Patrice to provide parking
for ' both the existing and new building. This structure will be
approximately the size of a football field .
In my opinion the granting of permit No. 2021 would destroy the quality
of the residential neighborhood of the Newport lilediterranean Apts. and
the Park Lido Condominiums totaling 239 residences which have been
located there for approximately 14 and 18 years respectively . To permit
an 84% expansion of office space and a huye parking structure over
thirty feet high', would destroy the aesthetic quality of the residential
neighborhood , create noise , fumes , all day long traffic congl:stion and
increased air pollution. Please note that a medical office building
involves a continuing hourly or half hourly turnover of cars in the
parking structure . In the past few years this residential area has
been subject to increased traffic- from the following: 1 . expansion
of Hoag Hospital , 2 . construction of Villa Balboa ,u 3 . construction of
a large new medical building at Superior and Hospital lid . Thy:
proposed new parking structure at Hughes Corporatilln on Dana Rd.
will add further traffic to an overburdened area.
My objections to Permit No . 2021 can be further detailed as follows:
1 . The 140 Newport lilediterranean Apts . constitute an Established
Neighborhood in existence for about 14 years. All of these are deluxe
two and three ved,room units with many dmenitios. There are thirty-five
Page Two 11dye I wu
Newport filed . fourpl*s each hajvi iy four deluMunits . Ten of these
for,rplexes are located on Patrico Rd. which sharer a common borde-r with
the proposed 30 ft. high parking building , a height greater than the
two story fourplexes. The remaining apartment units are on Hilaria
way and Dana Rd . Of the total 140 apartments , one quarter ( or 35 ) are
spacious , two level , three bedroom, two bar;h tnr,,r�tnlii •.; •, 1 , ,� Lios ,
fireplaces , separate dining rooms and laundry rooms. Another quarter
( or 35) are upstairs , single level , two bedroom two bath apartments.
The remaining half or seventy apartments arr: spacious townhomos , two
levels with two large bedrooms , 11� baths , laundry hookups , walled
lower patios and upstairs balcolnies.
2.The 9 Pairk Lido Condominiums Constitute an Established Neighborhood
in existence f'or about 18 years. They are spaciuus 'units with many
amenities and double garages , and were built before the Park Lido
iuedical Bldg was constructed. Some of the Park Lido condominium owners
anticipated that a park and teenis courts would be built on the site
of the Park Lido flisdical H,uilding.
3. Quality of Life Adversely Affected for the 23li kesidential Units .
The foregoing 239 households are entitled to the quiet enjoyment of
their homes. To add the proposed medical building and parking structure
would destroy the quality of their homes and environment . The exisitng
Park Lido parking lot which is not used in the evenings and weekends
constitutes an area of open space and improves the air quality of the
nrea .Some condominiums and apartments on Flagship and Patrice have
mini ocean views. from their second stories which will certainly be lost .
4 . Devaluation of Property values It is self evident that there would
be a decline in property values for the owners of the condominiums
and apartments if an unsightly parking structure over 30 ft . high
is built . It would destroy the aesthetic character' of the neighborhood.
The noise , fumes and continual traffic would make the neighborhood
Far less desirable resultinq in a decline in prupurty values.
For all the foregoing reasons I am requesting that the pormit be
denied or' that an Environmental Impact Report be submitted .

Re: Park Lido Medical
Building Project
Dear Planning Commission Members :
On Feburary 7, 1982 my wife and I sent the attached
letter to all members of the City Council stating our
reasons for our objections to the addition of any more
buildings to the Park Lido Medical Building site.
We realize that the City Council rejected the prior
a-pplication for "over height" construction.
We now understand that the owner is having a traffic
study prepared by a consulting firm. Should certain
conditions prevail in that study it is our understanding
that construction may proceed within the height limits .
We have not received a single communication as the result
of our letter of Feburary 7,1982. We are therefore attach-
ing copies of that letter to again voice our concerns and
objections to any additions that will increase the traffic
volume on Flagship Road in the amounts stated in that letter.
Any' traffic study which does not deal directly with the
concerns expressed in our letter to the Council must be
rejected as inadequate., the ihvironmen.tal impact upon our
community is too great to ignore.
S ncerely you ,

Res Park Lido Medical Office Project
Honorable Mayor Heather and Councilpersonss
In January 1982, my wife and I sent a letter to each member of your
Coucil and to each member of the Planning Commission. We expressed
our deep concern over the proposed expansion on the site of the Park
Lido Medical Building.
I explained in that letter that both my wife and I had been involved
for over 30 years in Traffic Safety with the Los Angeles City Schools,
We stated that we were opposed to any additional buildings' on the
site that would increase traffic and on-street parking in the Park
Lido and Mediterranean Village projects.
In my presentation to the Planning Commission, I indicated that the
studies which had been made on behalf of the Project were made at
intersections which should be of concern to the City, but which,
were of little concern to the residents who must use Flagship Road
or Dana Street as the only means of ingress and egress to and from
our community.
The intersections of Flagship Road at...Placentias Placentia at Hos-
pital Roads and Dana at Superior are vital to us.
41
There was no mention of any of these intersections in the Initial
Study prepared by Westec Services, Inc. or in the subsequent "Response
to Queetione ,
Section 2.1.20 paragraph 2, on page 9 of the Initial Study admits
the "Land use impacts may or may not result from the location of
the parking structure, ". We contend that it does not take a
professional to ascertain that great harm will be done to the sqrround-
- ing community. The section goes on to state, "while proximity to the
residences is not the most desirable, a generous set back along the
affected streets has been provided as well as a fairly lush land-
scape scene and berms , "
Curbside parking is inevitable• andwill mean a great deal of pedes-
trian traffic on Patrice and Flagship Road, next to the parking
structure. Sidewalks should have been recommended or required as
a part of the conditions under which the Planning Commission gave its
approval of the project.
No mention has been made of any plans which the City may have to
ease the existing and future traffic problems at Flagship Road and
Placentia or at Hospital Road and Placentia.
• - 2 - •
No suggestions have been put forward as to how the two intersections
in such close proximity can be signalized to provide an orderly pro-
cession of vehicles on the three streets.
The Initial Study points out that the proposed parking structure
will not contain the required number of parking stalls. (p14, 2.3;2)
This means that the curbside parking referred to herein will definitely
occur.
In fact, multi-level parking structures are avoided whenever possible;
it is therefore most likely that women will choose to park at our curbs
and walk to the buildings whenever they can find space at a curb.
Items "a" through "c" of Section 2.3.2; "Environmental Impacts" ,
deal with three major alternatives of providing temporary parking
during construction.
Two of the proposals deal with the use of valet parking using lots
#1 and #2 on Superior and Coast Highway respectively.
These suggestions cannot be taken seriously by anyone. It just is
not going to happen until our community streets are overloaded.
The use of curbside parking described in item "c", page 15, gives
the most realistic picture of what will occur during construction and
after completion of the project. .
The Study ignores the problems associated with the parking of con-
struction workers' vehicles. These people will grab the closest curbside
/paces because they will arrive earliest. This will force patients
out into our entire community. We will suffer t-he pangs of overparking
even in prohibited areas.
Any attempt to enforce parking laws will end up by giving tickets to
home owners who cannot find a space for their second car in the village r..area.
"Project Driveway Use" on page A-25 -states that 55% of the daily project
traffic will be oriented to Newport Blvd. and the heaviest driveway use
is expected to be the Hospital Road access.
No mention is made of other access locations. However, 45% is ex-
pected to use other access loeationst that is obvious. This can
only mean that Flagship Road and Dana Street will carry this 45% to their
Juncture with Placentia and Superior respectively. We find no studies
covering these intersections, and yet this structure will add at
least 881 more trips that will be added to existing traffic, (25% of
1958) . ,
The proposed 65,269 square foot building will generate 1958 trips
daily according to the Study (see page All) . The existing 77,000
square foot building which is 1.18 times the size of the proposed structure evidently generates 2310 trips daily, for s total of 4268
trips when all construction is finished.
If the foregoing figures are reasonably accurate then the present
1040 cars which now use Flagship Road (45%) will be increased by
881 for a total of 1921 trips daily on Flagship Road. Thus, anJ
- 3 - •
i average of 240 cars per hour will be using Flagship Road plus the
traffic„generated within our communities by residents.
There will be many "U-turns" and mid-block turnabouts by those who
choose to park at our curbs. Accidents are inevitable.
The "Project Traffic Distribution" shows that 25% (1069) of the
4268 daily trips will go northeast on Superior. Most of these
drivers will use Flagship Road to Dana and turn right onto Superior,8 p rior.
This they will do to avoid the traffic Jams at Placentia and Flag-
ship Road and the signal at Placentia and Superior.
The project study indicates as stated previously that 55% will use
Hospital Road. accesses to reach Newport Boulevard. We seriously
doubt this , because 55% of 4268 daily trips to both medical build-
ings means that there will be 2347 potential left turns from mid-
block accesses onto Hospital Road in an eight-hour period or 293
sych turns per hour.
It is reasonable to assume that those drivers who will hesitate to
turn left onto Hospital Road against traffic accelerating uphill
or coasting downhill will choose to use Flagship Road. This can
easily negate the assumption that 55% will use the Hospital Road
accesses. It will also increase the volume on Flagship Road.
We ask that you deny this permit and change the zoning to resident-
lal.
I close with one very important question, "Where is there a law
that says that one property owner can profit at the expense of all
within the community?"
01
We are sending this letter because we will be in San Francisco on
a business trip at the time of your hearing on this project.

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTING
THE TRAFFIC PHASING ORDINANCE
I. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
A. General:
These procedures apply to all commercial or industrial projects which
have a gross floor area greater than 10,000 sq. ft., and all residen-
tial projects of more than ten dwelling units.
B. Evaluating Projects:
1. The applicant files a request for consideration of the entire pro-
ject, under the provisions of the Ordinance, with the Planning
Department. The request must be accompanied by a project descrip-
tion, project phasing schedule„ site plan, and fees as set by the
City Council.
2. A traffic analysis shall then be prepared by a qualified traffic
engineer according to the methodology approved by the City Council.
C. Staff Recommendation:
1. The City's Traffic Engineer will review the report prepared by the
consultant and transmit the findings and worksheet to the Planning
Department for presentation to the Planning Commission.
D. Planning Commission Review and Findings:
The Planning Commission shall review the determination and recommenda-
tions of the Traffic Engineer and the Planning Department, at a duly-
noticed public hearing, and make one of the following findings:
1. The City has issued a building or grading permit for the project
prior to May 8, 1978, and that the person to whom such permit was
issued has, in good faith and in reliance upon such permit,
diligently commenced construction and performed and incurred
substantial liabilities for work and materials necessary therefor.
No change, causing a substantial increase in traffic volumes, has
been made in such project, except in accordance with the provisions
of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance; or
2. The traffic projected one year after project completion, during any
2.5 hour peak traffic period on each leg of each critical inter-
section, will be increased less 'than 1% by traffic generated from
the project during that 2.5 hour period; or
3. A traffic analysis has been performed and accepted. The traffic
analysis was based on the projected street system and projected
traffic volumes one year after completion of the project or
portion of the ,project for which the traffic analysis was performed.
The traffic analysis has s
Y hewn ,that, at that time, 'the additional
traffic generated by the project, or portion of the project,
including any approved trip generation reduction measures:
I�
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURESOR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC PHOG ORDINANCE - Page 2 S-1
a. will neither cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of
traffic service on any "major", "primary-modified", or "primary"
street; or
b. may cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic
service on one or more "major", "primary-modified", or "primary"
streets; or
c. may cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic ser-
vice on one or more "major", "primary-modified", or "primary"
streets; however, the benefits outweigh the anticipated nega-
tive impact on transportation facilities, for the following
reasons: (specify)
E. Approval of Applications:
A simple majority vote by the Planning Commission, subject to City
Council review or appeal, is required for finding D.1, D.2, D.3.a. , or
D.3.b. A four-fifths majority vote by the Planning Commission (or by
the City Council on appeal or review) is required for finding D.3.c.
F. Appeals: `
1. The determination of the-Planning Commission may be appealed to
the City Council pursuant to the procedure set forth in Section
20.80.070 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
2. The City Council shall have a Right of Review as set forth in
Section 20.80.075 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
II. OUTLINE OF METHODOLOGY FOR TRAFFIC ANALYSES
A. Designation of Impacted Intersections and Determination of Project
Impact for 2.5 Hour Peak Period:'
1. The Traffic Engineer will determine which intersections will be
affected by the proposed project according to its size and geographic
location.
2. An analysis will be done whereby it will be determined if one year
after completion of the project, or portions of the project for which
the traffic analysis is being performed, the project (including
those portions for which traffic analyses have been previously
approved) will generate one percent or more of the projected traffic
volumes for each leg of each impacted intersection during that 2.5
hour peak period. If less than a one percent increase is demonstrated
for each leg, then the analysis is concluded, and finding I.D.2.
may be made.
B. If the initial Traffic Study indicated the project, or portion of the
project, for which the traffic analysis is being performed, one year
after completion may generate one percent or more of projected traffic
volumes on one or more legs of any impacted intersection, then the
Traffic Engineer or a qualified consultant will analyze the intersection
capacity utilization for the impacted intersection(s) :
�a
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUROOR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC *ING ORDINANCE - Page 3
The report will indicate the following:
I. Existing traffic.
2. Projected increases in regional traffic.
3. Projected traffic from committed projects that will be'completed
before one year after the completion date of the project or portion
of the project for which the traffic analysis is being performed.
4. Traffic generated by the proposed .project, or portion of the project,
without trip generation reduction measures.
5. Traffic 'generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
with approved trip generation reduction measures.
C. Where a full traffic analysis is performed under Section IIB, the
following I.C.U. calculations shall be performed for each impacted
intersection:
1. The existing IX.U.
2. The I.C.U. , with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion. This I.C.U. calculation
shall be based on all projected, traffic sources except the proposed
project.
3. The I.C.U. , with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion, based on all sources of
traffic, including traffic generated by the proposed project, with
approved trip generation reduction measures.
III. DEFINITIONS AND ANALYSIS RESTRAINTS
A. Traffic System Improvements
Traffic system improvements may be included in the traffic analysis
for a proposed project, provided that:
1. The improvement will be completed no more than one year after com-
pletion of the project or project phase for which the traffic
analysis is being performed; and
2. The improvement is included in the Circulation Element of the General
Plan, and is defined sufficiently therein to permit an I.C.U. analysis
to be performed; or
3. The improvement design has been approved by the City Council, and
is defined sufficiently to permit an I.C.U. analysis to be performed.
j B. Projected Capacity Increases from Traffic System Improvements
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUR*OR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC PING ORDINANCE - Page 5 S-1
E. Traffic Distribution
Traffic distribution shall be based on the traffic network expected
to exist one year after project completion including those portions of
the network associated with previously approved projects or portions
of projects expected to exist at that time.
F. Improvements or Modifications to the Circulation System
If the applicant wishes to propose quantifiable improvements or changes
to the circulation system, which may not appear to be strictly consis-
tent with the Circulation Element, or special assumptions as a basis
for the traffic analysis, he shall provide a description of such pro-
posals in writing to the Planning Commission, along with supporting
data justifying their use, in advance of the traffic analysis. Such
proposals may then be. used in the traffic analysis if they are approved
by the Planning Commission and the City Council.
IV. ISSUANCE OF PERMITS
Permits may be issued for all or a portion of a project after an appropriate
finding under I.D. has been made.
A. Grading Permits
Grading permits may be issued prior to performance of the traffic analy-
sis if vesting rights associated with grading are waived by applicant.
B. Building Permits
Where traffic system improvements have been included in the traffic
analysis, building permits may be issued only after traffic system
improvement timing has been confirmed as follows:
1. It has been budgeted and committed for development by the City; or
2. The State or County or other governmental agency making the improve-
ment has accepted bids; or
3. The improvement is to be installed or guaranteed by the applicant
in conjunction with the development project and is approved by the
appropriate governmental jurisdictions.

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDUROOR IMPLEMENTING THE TRAFFIC PONG ORDINANCE - Page 4 S-1
For purposes of the traffic analysis, 70X of the incremental increase
in intersection capacity (based on a capacity of 1600 vehicles per hour
of green time for each full traffic lane) shall be utilized. Upon
completion of the improvement, traffic volume counts shall be updated,
and any additional available capacity may then be utilized in future
traffic analyses.
C. Traffic Volumes
1. Traffic volumes shall be based on up-to-date estimates of traffic
volumes expected to exist one year after completion of the project,
or portion of the project, for which the traffic analysis .is being
performed. Such estimates shall include existing traffic as deter-
mined by annual field counts plus traffic generated by previously
approved projects or portions of projects expected to exist in the
same time period plus estimated increases in regional traffic.
If the intersection configuration being analyzed is the ultimate
configuration consistent with the Circulation Element or otherwise
approved by the City Council, then the traffic volumes used in the
analysis shall include total traffic expected to be generated from
all previously approved projects even if they will not be completed
at the time the subject project is completed.
2. The incremental regional traffic for the time period between the
date of existing counts and one year after project completion will
be estimated based on the rate projected by the traffic model or on
a growth projection developed by the Traffic Engineer and approved
by the Planning Commission.
3. For making the 1% test of II.A.2. , traffic volumes shall not be
used which exceed the capacity of the circulation system specified
in the General Plan.
D. Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the project shall be based on standard
trip generation values established by the City Traffic Engineer with
the approval of the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal or
review. These trip generation figures may be modified only when the
applicant proposes specific, permanent measures that will reduce traffic
generated by the project, provided that:
1. The applicant describes in writing, in advance of the traffic analysis,
the proposed measure, the estimated reduction in trip generation
that will result, and the basis for the estimate. The estimate
must be approved by the Planning Commission or City Council on
appeal or review before the trip generation figures may be reduced.
2. The applicant provides the Planning Commission with a written
assurance that the proposed trip generation reduction measure will
be permanently implemented, and agrees to make said permanent
implementation a condition for project approval.

Dear Commissioners:
I am concerned not only as a homeowner but as a citizen that
if this development and others are approved in Newport Beach,
the streets will be filled with far more vehicles than they
were designed to carry.
This area is already congested and in my opinion and that of

'Dear, Commissioners :
Quick access to Hoag Hospital is important to all of us .
Unfortunately not all vehicles bringing emergency patients to
Hoag Hospital have the benefit of a siren to assist them.
There is already traffic congestion during peak hours at
two intersections adjacent ,to the hospital (Hospital Rd, and
Placentia Ave: ; -Hospital Rd. and Newport Blvd.) . Increasing
congestion can be anticipated near the hospital entrance because
of more automobile traffic from Costa Mersa- using Placentia Ave .
as a thoroughfare . Future construction of the second Hoag tower,
the Heritage Bank building, the Hughes project, the Mollard Medi-
cal Building and probably the Park Lido project have been allowed
to proceed without measuring their impact on the intersection of
Hospital Rd. and Placentia Ave .
The Beeco project might generate more area traffic than
planned if much of the 235, 000 square feet designated as commercial
in Area Two is utilized for medical offices . ,
Although the proposed traffic signal at Hospital Rd. and
Placentia Ave. might temporarily mitigate traffic problems , ultimately,
in the next five to ten years traffic will increasingly stifle -access
to Hoag Hospital, .
I Believe that in the future it is important to require nearby
projects to include traffic impact studies on the intersection at
Hospital Rd. and Placentia Ave . Perhaps more stringent traffic
requirements than those outlined in the Traffic Phasing-'Ordinanrce=
may be needed for interse.cti.ons adjacent to the Hospital .
Hoag Hospital will invariably increase in size and the surrounding
surface streets will be increasingly congested. Unless an Area Plan
addressing contingency, plans for hospital access is coned dered now,
there will, be few options available for alleviating the problem in
the future .
Sincerely,
oftn F . Skinner, .D.

Dear Commissioners,
I am writing to express to you my continuing and increased
concern of the impact on the traffic, particularly along
Hospital road, but also along Placentia, which will be caused
by the number of proposed new construction projects in our
immediate area, including the Beeco project, Hoag second
tower, Hughes Aircraft, Mollard Medical, the Heritage Bank
Building and the Park Lido Medical Building.
Despite the opinions of the Traffic Review Group, we have
significant traffic problems at present and the increased
traffic I am afraid will lead us to have many traffic jams
and an increased number of accidents.
I would encourage you to look at the total area, as I know
you are, so that we may have an optimal development plan.
Sincerely yours,

6 Project Related Improvements
In that the Superior and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is
impacted by other development projects and regional traffic, the
responsibility for the improvements recommended should be appor-
tioned in an equitable manner.
In the City of Newport Beach' s 1981 - 1982 budget, the improve-
ments of one southbound left lane, two southbound through lanes
and one southbound right lane to the Superior/Pacific Coast
Highway intersection have been included. It is anticipated that
construction will begin this fiscal year. Other projects have
proposed the addition of one westbound through lane and one south-
bound right lane. This project proposes the restripping of the
northbound lanes to include three northbound through lanes . With
these improvements, the intersection will 'operate at .8929 .
The Dover and Pacific Coast Highway intersection is currently being
reconstructed. The proposed improvements include: three south-
bound left lanes, one southbound right Zane, and one southbound
through; two eastbound left lanes, and three eastbound through
lanes; one westbound right lane, one westbound left lane and three
westbound through lanes. Once these improvements are completed,
the intersection will operate at . 7650.
