Council Member Watt emphasized her desire to have the Council consider, at some point in time, the issue of employee transportation in general, and participation in the Transportation Resource Center. Mayor Strauss commented that he felt this project was "well done;" however, he is concerned about the height of the structure and does not want this project to set a precedent for future projects on the waterfront. The staff reviewed again the proposed view corridor, noting the minimum width of 100 feet on the ground level with a minimum of 50 feet on the second and third floors. It was also pointed out that the parking structure is all subterranean. All Ayes There being no further comments, the motion was voted on and carried. 5. Mayor Strauss opened the public hearing U/P 3329(A and City Council review of an APPEAL by (88) JAL' D.

Report from the Planning Department. Appeal application of Jan D. Vandersloot, M.D. The City Clerk reported that after the agenda was printed, a letter was received from the appellant, Dr. James D. Vandersloot regarding his appeal. A letter was also received from Mariners Mile Business and Resident Beautifi- cation Association in support of Lee West's project. In reviewing the Planning Commission recommendation, it was noted that at its meeting of September 7, 1989, the Planning Commission recommended the approval of Traffic Study No. 58 and Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) to convert an approved employees' cafeteria of an existing auto dealership into a restaurant facility with on-sale beer and wine, with the Findings and subject to the Conditions of Approval as indicated in the excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes. It was the determination of a majority of the Planning Commissioners that the project conformed with the requirements of the General Plan and the Zoning Code, and that there were no Findings to deny the applicant's request. The approval also included Condition of Approval No. 32 on Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) that nullifies the previous approval of Site Plan Review No. 49, Vesting Resubdivi- sion No. 876 and Traffic Study No. 48 (Revised) that permitted the construction of a retail-office building on the adjoining property to the east. Said property is now being purchased by the applicant as an off-site parking lot for the restaurant use in the auto dealership facility. A modification to the original use permit is also being proposed which would permit security lighting to remain on all night. Presently, the security lighting is turned off at 10:00 p.m. , and as a result, some vandalism has occurred on the property. Dr. Jan D. Vandersloot, appellant, 2221 16th Street, addressed the Council and reviewed some of the background Volume 43 - Page 420 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES \LL '�� 4P -JV�0 G�j► 9 9�ROLL � Z� 3O'A GIN October 30, 1989 INDEX connected with the opening of the Jaguar U/P 3329(A) Diner which, he stated, has been operating illegally since last Spring. A lawsuit was filed by the City, but not pursued into court. In the meantime, the dealership commissioned its own traffic study (No. 58) which split off the diner from the dealership. The Planning Commission then accepted said traffic study and approved the project. In view of the Commission's action, he would like the Council to request a new traffic study which includes both the dealership and the diner. He stated that his main objection to the subject use permit is that the traffic study approved by the Commission is inaccurate and incomplete. In addition, the applicant Lee West, is getting off "scot=free" while violating his use permit. Dr. Vandersloot explained the reasons he felt that Traffic Study No. 58 was not acceptable as enumerated in his letter to the City Council dated October 30, 1989. He also pointed out that Traffic Study No. 49 done in July, 1988 by DKS Associates for the City, included both dealership and diner, and concluded that traffic from both entities tripped the Traffic Phasing Ordinance for the PM peak hour at Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue, and as a result, the addition of the diner to the dealership was denied. He stated that in comparing both traffic studies, No. 49 vs. No. 58, there are large differences which he summarized. In conclusion, Dr. Vandersloot requested the following: 1. An independent traffic study done for the City, not for Newport Imports, because of the inherent conflict of interest posed by the consultant hired by the dealership. 2. The study should include both diner and dealership since both were built together. Project volumes should be dealership and diner. 3. An explanation from staff why regional growth volumes decreased by 50% while existing traffic volumes decreased by only 5% for the critical WT movement.

An explanation from staff why IU/P 3329(A) committed project volumes have been reduced by 17% while For Lease signs still show less than full occupancy at buildings such as the Chart House and John Dominis building on Mariners Mile. 5. If existing traffic is down, if regional growth traffic is down, and if committed project traffic is down, all according to traffic study No. 58, should we conclude that our traffic problems on Mariners Mile are over? 6. A procedure whereby independent traffic studies done for the City of Newport Beach are required for the TPO. 7. A procedure whereby projects are not allowed to be split up when doing traffic studies for the TPO. S. Occupancy rates of committed projects be confirmed other than simple telephone calls to the leasing agent. 9. Substantial fines to be levied against violators of Use Permits to prevent scofflaws from going scot—free when violating the permit procedure such as the current case. 10. Restrict the hours of operation so as to avoid the PM peak hour at Coast Highway and Riverside, as suggested by Ruby's last year. 11. That the City pursue the acquisition of parking spaces available on the Shokrian property from the off—street parking fund in order to secure parking permanently. Rich Edmonston, Traffic Engineer, addressed the Council and stated that the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance and City Council Policy S-1, which are administrative guidelines, are very specific as to how traffic studies are to be carried out in terms of land uses, Volume 43 — Page 422 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES \LL 0`�'Oy G'l� October 30, 1989 ROLL F FP N INDEX trip generation and trip distribution, U/P 3329(A) as well as the method of calculation in evaluating traffic impacts of a particular project. While Traffic Study No. 58 was not done by a consultant hired by the City, it is a consultant who the City has hired in the past. He advised that his office reviewed the traffic study in detail to be sure that the assumptions and calculations in the study were reasonably accurate. As a result of that review, he has no questions as to its validity of the method used. In response to some of the comments made by Dr. Vandersloot, he stated' he concurs in the recommendation that an independent consultant should be hired by the City to conduct traffic studies in the future, and it is a proposal to be considered by the Council at their next study session as a revision to Policy S-1. With regard to the recommendation that the diner and the dealership be considered as a package in the traffic study, he stated that in the 1988 traffic study, the two issues were combined into one. However, in the recent traffic study, the diner and the dealership were split due to the dealership being open prior to the diner. Another proposed revision to Council Policy S-1 is that traffic generated by both existing and proposed land uses shall be evaluated for any project proposed subsequent to, and within the time frame for analysis used by (one year subsequent to the anticipated date of occupancy) , a previously approved traffic study. Pertaining to decreases in regional volume which was reduced by 50%, he stated the reason for this decrease was that the earlier traffic study looked at a two-year time frame from the time the study was done to one year beyond completion, whereas in the second traffic study, the facility was essentially in place and only analyzed as a one-year time frame. Existing traffic volumes also decreased when in-field traffic counts were completed this past Spring. The numbers at the intersection of Riverside and Coast Highway were lower than the previous year, and were counted twice for accuracy. With regard to committed traffic volumes, these are traffic volumes from all the projects approved by the City which have not yet been fully occupied. Volume 43 - Page 423 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES �� s PO G� �Z Z4 r0 ROLL CALL Z� � October 30, 1989 N INDEX In response to Council inquiry, Mr. U/P 3329(A) Edmonston stated that if this project was being considered on a first—time basis, both the diner and the dealership would be studied together in the traffic study. With regard to the Shokrian property being considered as a committed project, he stated that when his office reviewed the traffic study, the property was counted as a committed project initially, but has been eliminated and recalculated and the ICU for the PM peak hour is now .88. During discussion among the Council the City Attorney pointed out for the benefit of those in the audience as well as television viewers, that the project being considered at this time is not the same project that was before the Council two years ago. The matter under consideration this evening involves acquisition of the site adjacent to the dealership, the provision of parking, and the removal of the old China Palace. It was also brought out that when the original use permit was denied for this project because it failed to meet the requirements of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance, the applicant pursued the acquisition of the Shokrian property for parking purposes, and hired Mr. Darnell to perform a new traffic study to determine if that study would reduce it below the .90 which was required by the TPO, prior to actually purchasing the property, and was the reason the City did not perform the traffic study. However, the basic data that was used for that study was obtained from the City Traffic Engineer. Council Member Watt indicated she had some reservations as to how staff uses the TPO and the method in which it is "almost manipulated" in some cases. She also discussed the way in which committed projects are calculated, and stated she felt Council Policy S-1 should be revised to "go beyond what has already been set forth." Dick Demmer, 2812 Cliff Drive, addressed the Council in support of the appeal and the request for a new traffic study. He stated he supported the applicant's original plan two years ago when the restaurant was to be an employees' diner and not open to the public. He also Volume 43 — Page 424 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES \LL9�gy�0�ROLL 4N October 30, 1989 INDEX stated that he. had no objection to the U/P 3229(A) differ being open to the public, but he did strongly object to the manner in which it was converted. He questioned if the applicant has actually purchased the Shokrian property as referenced earlier, and if so, will the proposed off-site parking agreement expire in five years? Regarding the request to allow the security lighting to remain on all night, he stated he had no objections, providing the lighting is adjusted downward due to the glare. The City Attorney responded that the provision of parking off-site on the parcel other than where the restaurant is located, requires the development of an off-site parking agreement between the owner of the property and the City, and provides that if parking is lost for any reason the restaurant operator has two options, i.e., to close the operation or restrict it so that it conforms to the code in terms of parking, or provide substitute parking. The off-site parking agreement is recorded so that subsequent purchasers of the off-site lot are on notice that their use of the property is restricted by the agreement. He also referenced Condition No. 14, which states: "The applicant shall record a covenant, guaranteeing that the subject parcels used for off-site parking for the restaurant shall remain in the same ownership as the property on which the restaurant is located." In addition, Finding No. 6 reads: "That the restaurant site and the off-site parking areas are in the same ownership." Janine Gault, 406 San Bernardino Avenue, representing the Board of Directors of the Newport Heights Community Association, addressed the Council and stated the Board of Directors were very disturbed over the fact that the City, in their opinion, has allowed Lee West to operate a public diner illegally without the benefit of approved permits. They are also concerned as to why the applicant has not been fined, or punished for violation of his use permit, and felt the City Attorney should have pursued the lawsuit against Mr. West. Volume 43 - Page 425 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES Z G 9Z�Zi1+O G,L4 tf+� October 30, 1989 INDEX ROLL CALL �� In response to the above comments, Mayor IU/P 3229(A) Strauss informed Ms. Gault that the staff is now in the process of preparing some type of document which will fine violators of future use permits. The City Attorney also reported, for the record, that he had written a letter to the Newport Heights Community Association explaining his reasons for not pursuing the lawsuit against Mr. West. Richard Dear, One Wilshire Blvd. , Los Angeles, representing the applicant Lee West, addressed the Council and advised that Mr. West has purchased the Shokrian property adjacent to Newport Imports and said property is in escrow. Mr. West presently has the "right of possession," which means that Mr. West has the right to enter onto the property and demolish the existing old China Palace, providing necessary permits are obtained. He stated it is his understanding that the subject property will be used for dealership and restaurant parking. He is hopeful escrow will close prior to the end of this year. David Purves, 532 Vista Grande, owner of Quality One—Hour Photo at 149 Riverside Avenue, addressed the Council in support of Mr. West's project. He stated he felt the traffic study was valid and that Newport Imports should be allowed to continue its operation of a public diner. Marian Rayl, 426 San Bernardino, addressed the Council in support of Dr. Vandersloot's appeal. She discussed increased traffic on Riverside Avenue; felt more traffic will be generated as a result of the diner which will exit and enter on Avon Street; does not want to see Mariners Mile overbuilt; and felt a portion of the Shokrian property will eventually be developed which could mean a traffic light at Avon and Riverside Avenues. Pat Hollander, 213 Via Dijon, addressed the Council in support of the appeal. She stated that Mr. West is presently "breaking the law," and questioned what will stop him from continuing to violate City regulations if this project is approved. She read a prepared statement Volume 43 — Page 426 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES G \ON �A S �p 4c �,y f�N October 30, 1989ROLL CALL �P INDEX regarding legality and upholding the U/P 3229(A) law, and stated she felt every individual should be accountable to the law. Sid Soffer, 900 Arbor Street, Costa Mesa, addressed the Council neither for nor against the appeal. He indicated he felt that sometimes the law is unjust, and asked questions regarding the Shokrian property. Dr. Vandersloot addressed the Council again, and stated that the, Shokrian property does not really impact the current traffic study; a restaurant cannot be build on the old China Palace property; committed project traffic should account for both dealership and the restaurant in the traffic study; and the independent traffic study consultant is critical because he is the one who determines the distribution of the traffic. Bill Darnell, Traffic Engineer who prepared the current traffic study, addressed the Council and stated that in the committed projects traffic, 98% of the Newport Imports was included, even though it was calculated six months after Mr. West had opened. He stated that he basically tried not to change any of the parameters of generation rates that were used in the previous traffic study, and obtained all of the background information, existing counts, etc., from the City's Traffic Division. 'He also discussed some technical aspects of the traffic study as referenced by Dr. Vandersloot. Robert Blake, 633 Lido Park Drive, addressed the Council and stated that Mr. West has shown a "blatant disregard for public policy," and if he is allowed to continue to violate City regulations, it could set a precedent. Jim Evans, Manager of Mariners Mile Marine Center, addressed the Council in support of Mr. West's project. He stated he felt Mr. West was in compliance with all aspects of the project and should be permitted to continue his operation, based on the merits of the current traffic study,. Hearing no others wishing to address the Council, the public hearing was closed. Volume 43 — Page 427 C`fTY OF NEWPORT BkACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES �� s o 4 15 N OL October 30, 1989 ROLL CALL �� INDEX Council Member Sansone indicated he felt U/P 3229(A) the Council had been "lied to" by Mr. West, initially regarding the employees cafeteria, which is actually a public restaurant, and questioned the City Attorney if the Council had to "stick by" that decision since Mr. West violated the conditions of his use permit. The City Attorney reminded the Council that the project under consideration at this time is not identical to the project approved by the Council two years ago, when the Jaguar dealership first came before the Council. What is on the agenda for approval this evening is a use permit involving the ownership of adjacent property and a provision of parking on said adjacent parcel. He stated that he agrees with Council Member Sansone regarding the representations made by Mr. West at the time the Jaguar dealership was approved; however, he was unsure as to what legally can be done about that at this time, inasmuch as Mr. .West has acquired property for parking purposes which now satisfies the requirements of the use permit, as well as the TPO. Motion x Council Member Sansone stated that he did not 'know how the Council could act on the subject use permit due to the past history of Mr. West and misrepresentation of the diner. He added that inasmuch as the Shokrian property has not yet closed escrow, he is "leery" of approving anything at this time, and therefore moved to delay action on, this issue until escrow has actually closed on the Shokrian property. It was indicated by the City Attorney that inasmuch as there are no grounds for denial of the subject use permit, the Council may wish to approve the application with the provision that Mr. West cease operation of the diner as a public restaurant until the close of escrow on the Shokrian property. The Planning Director explained the reasons Condition No. 14 was worded in such a manner, noting that when the amended use permit was submitted to the Planning Commission, it was represented to the City that Mr. West already owned the Shokrian property. The fact that the Shokrian property was a parcel Volume 43 — Page 428 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES \LLo \"xP n0 9� 7�Gt0October 30, 1989 ROLL O INDEX separate from the original parcel 'upon U/P 3229(A) which Mr. West built the automobile agency, instead of requiring Mr. West to enter into an off-site parking agreement which would be a three-way agreement between the owner of the off-site lot, the owner of the parcel where the restaurant was going to be developed, and the City, a condition was formulated requiringthe owner to record the covenant guaranteeing to the City that Mr. West would hold the two parcels as a single building site, or as in this case, one ,parcel for parking and one parcel for a restaurant. He stated that the fact the Planning Commission approved the project didn't necessarily hinge on Whether or not Mr. West owned the Shokrian property, leased the property, or had a right to occupy the property. Council Member Watt stated' she felt the City Council should begin to .clarify the future of the Mariners Mile, and "stop acting as if the City may or may not widen Coast Highway." It is her belief that the City's goal in Mariners Mile is to retain it as a destination area with ,a village that works for the people. She felt the City Council wants to retain landscaped parking lots throughout the area; they don't want the widening of Pacific Coast Highway because it would increase the speedway; the streetscape, sidewalk and bikeways would be lost. She also felt there were findings for denial in that the traffic study is not adequate. She stated she concurs with Council Member Sansone that this item could be delayed until the escrow closes on the Shokrian property, but at that time there are mitigating things that have to happen to make the condition meet City goals. She felt the Shokrian property should be retained for parking and not developed for a two year period. She stated she would like to promote the provision for bicycles along Mariners Mile and participation in the Transportation Resource Center so that the City can eliminate some of the need for traffic and parking; and further, she would like the staff to review the method of traffic analysis (TPO) once again, taking into consideration all the points which have been brought up, including the consultant's letter which came in after Dr. Vandersloot's package, Volume 43 - Page 429 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES Gay \0% 0\PAP0\ 9� October 30, 1989ROLL CALLINDEX and that a process should begin that U/P 3229(A) would review the entire Coast Highway issue as to its widening. Council Member Hart stated that Council Member Watt's comments are worthy of consideration, as they have been in the past regarding Mariners Mile. However, the City Council continues to go on record as not favoring the widening of Coast Highway in Mariners Mile, but advised that it is an issue being analyzed again by the Mariners Mile business people. The City has had a history of not condemning property, and she felt this was also not the time or place to do it. She stated that according to the Planning Commission's review, and for all intents and purposes of the law, the applicant has complied with the requirements of the General Plan and the Zoning Code, and therefore, she does not see how the City Council can deny this project, particularly since there are no findings for denial. Also, she felt the ,amount of traffic this project generates seems to be mitigated by the number of conditions of approval imposed by the City staff and Planning Commissiop. The City Attorney reiterated again that because of a very complicated history connected with this issue during the past 8 to 12 months, this item has become very compl$x and as a result, it is not an easy decision for the City Council. The fa# that the applicant opened a public restaurant contrary to the Council's expressed decision is clouding the issue. He recognizes the fact that the Council, as well as a number of residents, are upset that Mr. West has continued to operate the public diner, and therefore, he suggested that the Council impoee a condition whereby there shall' be no-further operation of a public restaurant until the conditions of the use permit have been satisfied, which could at lefst put a stop to what Mr. West has con4nued to do which has caused such anger, He stated that he has talked with toe Traffic Engineer and other staff membets about this project, and cannot come uj with findings for denial, and with tll due respect to Council Member Wait, he felt the City Council cannot deny this project on the basis that it so*how has an incremental Volume 43 - page 430 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES G� y�fG;�\4PO\ 13'AcROLL CALL � �P October 30, 1989 INDEX effect on the traffic on Pacific Coast U/P 3229(A) Highway and may induce some widening. The City's Master Plan calls for six lanes on Pacific Coast Highway through Mariners Mile, and the existing use permit is conditioned upon the property owner's dedication of additional right- of-way to widen Pacific Coast Highway, and is conditioned in that manner because the use permit has to be consistent with the City's General Plan. The City Council also cannot, in his opinion, restrict the use of the property adjacent to the dealership for a period of time in an effort to try to force the property owner to come to the City and enter into some agreement about the use of those additional parking spaces that are shown on the site plan. In conclusion, he recommended that the Council look at this project as it has been submitted, given the conditions of approval, and assuming those conditions of approval will be satisfied. Motion x 4 Following discussion, a substitute motion was made to sustain the decision of the Planning Commission; with the addition of Condition of Approval No. 33, which states that "the applicant shall immediately cease operating the facility as a public restaurant, and that this application shall be reviewed by the City Council on January 8, 1990, to enable the City Council to ensure that the applicant has complied with all aspects of this use permit, specifically Finding No. 6, and Condition of Approval No. 14." Mr. Dear, representing Lee West, applicant, addressed the Council after conferring with his client, and advised that Mr. West will not agree to the additional condition as stated by Council Member Turner, inasmuch as he feels he has met the requirements of the City to operate a public restaurant. in essence, Mr. West is not going to close down the diner nor cease what he is doing at •the present .time. s In view of the foregoing comments, 1f Council Member Turner withdrew his substitute motion. ggg� Volume 43 - Page 431 I CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES 9 A�f A ROLL L � Z J� October 30, 1989 INDEX CALZ � �� Discussion ensued, wherein the City U/P 3229(A) Attorney suggested that the City Council approve the use permit, subject to the provisions set forth in the foregoing by Council Member Turner, even though Mr. West has stated through his attorney he will not comply with the condition to cease operation of the public restaurant.

Planning Commission Recommendation At its meeting of September 7, 1989, the Planning Commission recommended the approval (6 Ayes, 1 No) of Traffic Study No. 58 and Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) to convert an approved employees' cafeteria of an existing auto dealership into a restaurant facility with on-sale beer and wine, with the Findings and subject to the Conditions of Approval as indicated in, the attached excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes. It was the determination of a majority of the Planning Commissioners that the project conformed with the requirements of the General Plan and the Zoning Code, and that there were no Findings to deny the applicant's request. The approval also included Condition of Approval No. 32 on Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) that nullifies the previous approval of Site Plan Review No. 49, Vesting Resubdivision No. 876 and Traffic Study No. 48 (Revised) that permitted the construction of a retail-office building on the adjoining property to the east. Said property is now being purchased by the applicant as an off-site parking lot for the restaurant use in the auto dealership facility (see the attached addendum to the Planning Commission staff report). City Council Action and Subsequent Apveal On September 25, 1989, the, City Council reviewed this matter to consider scheduling a public hearing regarding the action taken by the Planning Commission. However, the Council voted not to schedule a public hearing on these items. The appellant subsequently appealed the decision of the Planning Commission to the City Council.

Use permit procedures are set forth in Chapter 20.80 of the Municipal Code and traffic study procedures are found in Chapter 15.40. Environmental_ Significance This project has been reviewed, and it has been determined that it is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act under Class 1 (Existing Facilities). Subject PMeM and Surrounding Land Uses The subject property is currently the site of the new Newport Imports automobile dealership with a related service department and retail sales of automobile parts and accessories. To the north, across Avon Street, is the undeveloped slope area of Cliff Drive Park and the residential lots which front on Cliff Drive; to the east is the original China Palace Restaurant (now vacant) and a retail facility which specializes in automobile and boat stereos, telephones and security equipment; to the south, across West Coast Highway, is the John Domims Restaurant and office complex and the Lancer's Landing Office project; and to the west is the original Newport Imports automobile sales and service facility. Conformance with the General Plan and Local Coastal Pro,am Land Use Plan The Land Use Element of the General Plan and the Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan designate the site for 'Retail and Service Commercial" uses. The subject restaurant is a permitted use within this designation. The project is located within the boundary of Mariner's Mile Specific Plan Area which permits a variable Floor Area Ratio of .5/35. In accordance with the recently adopted FAR Ordinance, variable floor area 'd I TO: Planning Commission -3. ratios are prorated according to type of use. The base development allocation (0.5 in this case) shall not be exceeded by the sum of the weighted square footage of each use. The weighted square footage is determined by multiplying the gross floor area of a given use by the weighted factors indicated below. Weighted Use Category Square Footage Weig i]ing Factor Development Base FAR use which is 29,180 sq.ft x 1.0 = 29,180 sq.ft. the gross floor area devoted to the auto dealership excluding the area devoted to the subject restaurant, and covered parldng Reduced'FAR use which is the 3,268 sq.fL x 1.67 = 5,457 sqft. gross floor area devoted to the restaurant use. Total Weighted Development 34,637 sq.ft. Weighted FAR 0:389 As shown in the above table, the total weighted development (0.389 FAR) does not exceed the base development allocation of 0.5 FAR; therefore, the proposed project is consistent with the development limitations as established in the Newport Beach General Plan. Inasmuch as the subject property is located in the Coastal Zone, a Coastal Permit will be required prior to the subject use permit being effective. Backgmund it At its meeting of January 22, 1987, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No. 3229 and related traffic study which permitted the construction of an automobile dealership which exceeded the 26 foot basic height limit in the 26/35 Height Limitation District, on property located in the "Retail and Service Commercial" area of the Mariner's Mile Specific Plan. Said action of the Planning Commission also included the approval of Resubdivision No. 840 which involved the establishment of a single building site where,three parcels previously existed. The action of the Planning Commission was subject to the findings and conditions of approval as set forth in the attached excerpts of the Planning Commission minutes dated January 22, 1987. Subsequent to the Planning Commission's approval, the City Council considered the above applications at its meeting of February 23, 1987, and March 23, 1981. At that time the Council approved each of the applications subject to the findings and modified conditions set forth in the attached list of final findings and conditions of approval. Also attached, are excerpts of the City Council minutes dated February 23, 1987,•and March 23, 1987. `f' TO: Planning Commission -4. At its meeting of September 8, 1988, the Planning Commission denied Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) which involved the same request to convert the employees' cafeteria into a restaurant facility. Said action also included the denial of Traffic Study No. 49 which also included a request to override the requirements of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. The action of the Planning Commission was taken with the findings set forth in the attached excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes dated September 8, 1988. At its meetings of October 10, 1988 and October 24, 1988, the City Council considered the applicant's appeal of the Planning Commission's decision. On October 24, 1988, the City Council sustained the action of the Planning Commission. Attached for the Planning Commission's information are excerpts of the City Council minutes for October 10, 1988 and October 24, 1988; the latter including findings supportive of the City Council's action. Analysis As discussed in the previous sections, the original use permit application included a request to construct a new automobile sales and service facility with related offices and retail sales of automobile parts and accessories. In addition, the applicant has improved portions of the building for a related "employees' cafeteria" which he has recently converted to a public restaurant without the required approval of the Planning Commission. Having become aware of the illegal conversion, the City notified the applicant on May 8, 1989; (letter attached), that he was in violation of the Newport Beach Muniapal Code and that the operation of the restaurant was subject to the approval of a use permit. The applicant is now proposing to amend the previously approved use permit so as to allow the operation of a full service restaurant with on- sale beer and wine, in that portion of the building previously identified as an employees' cafeteria. Based on the attached plans, the proposed restaurant will occupy approximately 3,300t gross square feet of the automobile dealership and will include approximately 1,290t square m. daily and the a will be approximately blic area." The t 16 enmpl yees on duty durinn from g peak hours am. to of operation. Off-Street Parkin¢ In accordance with the original Use Permit No. 3229, the off-street parking requirement for the automobile dealership and related activities was established at 98 parking spaces. Said requirement was based on one parking space for each employee on duty during peak hours of operation, plus one parking space for each 250 sgft. of floor area in the office and showroom areas. Based on the current restaurant parking requirement of one parking space for each 40 square feet of "net public area," the proposed restaurant will require 33 parking spaces TO: Planning Commission -5. (1,290 sq.ft./40 sgft. = 32.25 or 33 spaces). The Planning Commission, pursuant to Section 20.30.035 B(4) of the Municipal Code, may .also increase or decrease the parking requirement of a restaurant within a range of one parking space for each 30 square feet of "net public area" (43 parking spaces) and one parking space for each 50 square feet of "net public area" (26 parking spaces), depending on the operational characteristics of the restaurant. Staff is of the opinion that a standard of one parking space for each 40 square feet of "net public area" would be appropriate in this case. Based on such a requirement, the combined off-street parking requirement for the proposed restaurant and the automobile dealership will be 131 parking spaces. Existing Off-Street Parkin¢ There are 191 existing on-site parking spaces provided in conjunction with the automobile dealership. The following table indicates the location and number of the existing parking spaces within the project: Ground Floor Parking for Customers: Front Parking Area: 16 spaces Service Area: 8 spaces Handicapped Spaces in Display Area: 2 spaces Total 26 spaces Second Level New Car Display Area: 23 spaces Third Level Service Parking: Area No. 1 (West Side of Bldg.) 87 spaces Area No. 2 (East Side of Bldg.) 55 spaces Grand Total 191 spaces Note: 4 of the 191 spaces are for handicapped parking. It should be further noted that due to the design of the access ramps to the second and third levels of the parking structure, the City Traffic Engineer has indicated that the parking spaces located on the second and third level of the parking structure are not available to customers of the automobile dealership. Therefore, the only parking spaces available to the customers of the automobile dealership are the 26 ground floor parking spaces, in the locations noted above. It should be further noted that there is a stacking area at the entrance of the service area which will accommodate 8 to 10 additional g r , TO: Planning Commission -6. parking spaces for service customers only; however these parking spaces have not been included in the above parking tabulations. Proposed Off-Street Parift In addition to the existing on-site parking spaces, the applicant has recently purchased the two adjoining properties which are currently the site of the original China Palace Restaurant and Alpha Electronics. The applicant intends to demolish the China Palace Restaurant building and clear the undeveloped portion of the Alpha Electronics site, in order to construct 86 additional parking spaces as shown on the attached site plan. Said parking area will have direct access from West Coast Highway and Avon Street, as well as access from the. existing p irldng area in front of the automobile dealership. The applicant intends to use 33 of the proposed parking spaces in order to satisfy the parking requirement for the proposed restaurant. It should also be' noted that because the proposed parking spaces are located on separate parcels from the restaurant site, it'will be necessary for the applicant to record a covenant against the properties agreeing to hold said parcels in the same ownership as the restaurant site. Traffic Study In accordance with the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance, the applicant is required to obtain the approval of a traffic study for the establishment of the subject restaurant. Said traffic study has been prepared and is attached for the Planning Commission's review. Inasmuch as the project is operational in 1989, analyses were therefore completed for 1990. The City Traffic Engineer has identified five (5) intersections which could be affected by the project at full occupancy. Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road Newport Boulevard and Via Lido I West Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue West Coast Highway and Tustin Avenue West Coast Highway and Dover Drive/Bayshore Drive The first step in evaluating intersections is to conduct a 1% Traffic Volume Analysis, taking into consideration existing traffic, regional growth and the traffic of previously committed projects. For any intersection where, on any approach leg, the project traffic is estimated to be greater than 1% of the projected morning and afternoon peak two and one-half hour volume, Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) is required. The results of the one percent test indicate that the project traffic exceeds 1% at the intersection of Riverside Avenue and West Coast Highway during the A.M. and P.M. peak periods. Therefore, an Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) analysis*was performed for this intersection which indicates that the additional project related traffic TO: Planning Commission -7. results in no change in the A.M. and P.M. ICU. Therefore, no farther analysis is required. A copy of the Traffic Study is attached for the Planning Commission s information. Parkine Access anct Circulation From West Coast Highway As shown on the attached parking plan, the applicant has provided direct on-site access between the auto dealership property and the off-site parking areas. Such a design will' allow easy movement of vehicles between the properties without having to enter West Coast Highway. West Coast Highway is designated a .Major Arterial (6 lane divided) in the City's Master Plan of Streets and Highways. The existing roadway has five lanes in the vicinity of this development. Widening of West Coast Highway will occur on the northerly side of the roadway. To provide room for the additional lane of traffic as well as a second left turn lane at Riverside Avenue and West Coast Highway, a strip of right- of-way is required that varies in width from 15.4 feet at the westerly side of the new expanded parking area to approximately 16 feet at the easterly side of the parking area. Section 13.05.010 'of the Municipal Code .requires that dedications be made to provide the right-of-way necessary to construct Master Plan streets when a building permit is issued for work on a parcel adjacent to the Master Plan Street. The plan submitted by the applicant for the expansion of the parking area provides for this dedication. The applicant also dedicated the necessary right-of-way across the frontage of the new Jaguar dealership when it was constructed. The restaurant use will increase traffic in and out of the site and contribute to the need for widening West Coast Highway. The existing building at the south easterly corner of the site will remain in use. A portion of this building is in the dedication area. The dedication condition provides for this building to remain in place until the road is widened. If the building is still in place when West Coast Highway is widened, the public agency doing the widening will provide for removing the portion of the building in the right-of-way. The plans for the expanded parking area provide for the drive entrance to be widened and reconstructed. The new drive will allow for vehicles to make right turns into and out of the site. Left turns will be prohibited'because the drive is too close to Riverside Avenue and the left turn moves would conflict, with the highway left turn lane. To insure that patrons of the site do not make left turns from the new drive, the existing median island will need to be extended approximately 35 feet westerly. Based on the description of the restaurant, it is anticipated that part of the clientele will walk to the site. To improve pedestrian access to the site, a sidewalk of similar width to the one constructed in front of the Jaguar dealership is recommended. 1 , ' TO: Planning Commission -8. Restaurant Development Standards Chapter 20.72 of the Municipal Code contains development standards for restaurants to ensure that any proposed development will be compatible with adjoining properties and streets. Said development standards include specific requirements for building setbacks, parking and traffic circulation, walls surrounding the restaurant site, landscaping, exterior illumination, signing, underground utilities, and storage. Section 20.72.130 of the Municipal Code states that any of the above mentioned development standards for restaurants may be modified or waived if such modification or waiver will achieve substantially the same results and will in no way be more detrimental to adjacent properties or improvements than will the strict compliance with the standards. Staff is of the opinion that the on-site development standards as they apply to walls, and parking lot illumination, should be waived if the Planning Commission approves this application because of the existing developed nature of the site. It should .be further i noted that the Public Works Department is recommending that the existing overhead utility service on the off-site parking areas be placed underground and'the existing poles removed from the site. RegUested Security LightW In accordance with Condition of Approval No. 13 of the original Use Permit No. 3229, illumination of automobile display areas is to be maintained in such a manner so as to eliminate direct light and glare on adjoining properties on Avon Street and West Coast Highway. Said condition also required all lights facing toward the bluff at the rear of the site, to be turned off by a timer at 10:00 p.m. each night. Since the automobile dealership opened, there have been five security lights operating past 10:00 p.m on the rear of the building adjacent to Avon Street. Said lighting was installed specifically 'fdr security purposes and it is the applicant's desire to have the lights on all night for that purpose. It should also be noted that staff has received no complaints from the property owners on the bluff side of Cliff Drive concerning the subject security lights. It is staffs opinion that security lighting acts as a deterrent to vandalism and illegal dumping that has occurred in the past along this secluded portion of Avon Street. Staff has no objections to the applicant's request to keep the security lights on all night, provided the lights are operated in a manner so as not to be objectional to the property owners on the bluff side of Cliff Drive. S„necific Fini dinar Section 20.80.060 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code provides that in order to grant any use permit, the Planning Commission shall find that the establishment, maintenance or operation of the use or building applied for will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the �1 TO: Planning Commission -9. general welfare of the City. Should the Planning Commission wish to approve these applications the findings and conditions contained in the attached Exhibit "A" are suggested. Staff has not included an exhibit for denial inasmuch as the subject project conforms with the requirements of the General Plan and Zoning.Code. However, there may be additional information presented at the public hearing which may provide grounds for denial of the use permit. ! PLANNING DEPARTMENT JAMES D.

Mr. Beek opined y that the project appears to be too large a building for the site, and that the building appears to be excessively bulky for the, Mariner's Mile area and for the surrounding neighborhood. In, reference to the characteristics of the project as stated in the staff report, Mr. Beek pointed out that .5 times "buildable area" would be 42,036 square feet, the proposed gross floor area excluding the 'parking structure would be 32,448 square feet; however, he calculated ' that the storage of 60 automobiles stored on-site times 350 square feet per automobile, would add an additional 21,000 square feet to the parking structure, totalling 53,000 square feet or .635 Floor Area Ratio. Mr. Beek contended that to be consistent with the intent of Mariner's Mile Specific Area Plan including the required storage area' for automobiles, the Floor Area Ratio should be reduced to .50 times "buildable area". Mrs. Marian Rayl, President of the Newport Heights Homeowner''a Association, appeared before the Planning " Commission to state the homeowners' concerns after they met with the applicants and reviewed a proposed project: that the subject roof-top parking s cture could set a precedentq that other roof-top pa rking structures may not have landscaping; that 158 roof-top parking spaces is an enormous number of parking spaces for the business; the ingress/egress noises automobile and parking structure lights shining into homes; and that the parking structure would be constructed below a view park that is currently being developed. i Ms. Corinne Spence appeared before the Planning Commission expressing her concerns regarding the build-up of Mariner's Mile: that the area will become an area similar to Harbor Boulevard in Costa Mesa; roof-top parkings roof-top lights; and, the aesthetics of the Mariner's Mile area. `10" ,2'Z L ` .

He stated that the roof of the building has blocked out the Newport Heights residents view of the automobiles and the bay. Dr. VanderSloot further maintained that the applicant has requested higher intensity of use because they have excess parking. Mrs. Jeanine Gault, 406 San Bernadino Avenue, appeared before the Planning Commission on behalf of the Newport Heights Community Association, to state their opposition to the project on the basis of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. -30- ' COMMISSIONERS September 8, 1988 MINUTES CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL There being no others desiring to appear and be heard, -the public hearing was closed at this time.

Recycled report from Planning Department, dated October 10, 1988, with appeal application from Leland Best, was presented. _ Copy of letter to Planning commission Chairman from Gail Dammer, President of Newport Reights,Cossunity Association, requesting denial of subject use permit, was presented. Assistant City Clark advised that after the agenda was printed, a letter from Dr. Jan D. Vandarsloot was received requesting denial of Newport Imports to establish a Ruby's Restaurant in their building, based on the Traffic Phasing ordinance. Ken Delino, Executive Assistant to the City Manager, suemmrisad the project as a request to amend a use permit to enable a previously approved employees cafeteria area to be converted to a full-service restaurant with beer and wine takeout service. He further stated that in the denial, the Planning Commission noted there was adequate parking, but the project did not most the requirements of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. In addition, he stated, the . applicant has offered to close the restaurant during the psak hours, but the opinion of staff is that This would be difficult to enforce. Bob Burnham, City Attorney, stated that copies of his memorandum regarding the subject use permit and related traffic study, have been given to the applicant, the staff (to be included in the .� record), and to the City Council, which attempts to answer some questions as to whether the applicant can, under the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO), close the restaurant and therefore, comply with the TPO, and yiadinge for Denial of Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended). He stated he indicated in his memorandum, that since the TPO uses the California Environaental Qesldty Act (CEQA) definition of "project," and CEQA,allows a project to modify its proposal, the Council can consider this project satisfying the TPO, with the imposition Volume 42 - 421 Y OF NEWPORT B •.:NCH MINUTES COUNCIL MEMBERS NVOW, ` LL October 24, 1988 of conditions that require the U/P 3229(A) restaurant to close during the peak hour periods. Further, the City Attorney stated that it is his opinion this type of condition will be difficult to enforce, as it may not be consistent with the spirit of•tha TPO. He added that at to his memorandum are two exhibits; the Findings for Approval of Traffic Study No. 49 (there were no Findings for Approval with the report that went to the Planning Commission); and Findings for Denial of Use Permit No. 3229 [Amended] (in the attachment to the Planning Commission, there were no Finding for Denial of the use permit). In aummary, he stated that the Council has three options as they relate to the TPO'. 1) find that no traffic study is required because the project has been modified; 2) override the TPO; 3) or deny the traffic study on the basis that the conditions the applicant is offering to abide by are difficult, or impossible to enforce. He stated that Council also has the option of approving, or denying the use permit, and findings for denial are with the material that was submitted to the Council, which is an action that Council can take independent of the decision on the traffic study and the TPO. He stated that the findings for denial of the use permit are predicated on two things: 1) the proposed project requires valet parking for restaurant customers and there is the potential for traffic congestion occurring in the west bound lanes of Pacific Coast Highway in the event valets cannot adequately accommodate the demand for their ser6icss; and 2) the intersection at Riversida and Pacific Coast Highway experiences heavy congestion during the . 1100 a.m. to 1300 p.m. ,periods, and the , incremental increase in congestion resulting from the restaurant use will adversely affect service at that intersection. The Planning Director stated that he felt the Council was due an explanation from the staff as follows' When this project was presented to the Planning Commission, it was specifically designated as an employee cafeteria. Shortly after the applicant started construction of the project, it came to the attention of staff that it was the applicant's intent to put a Ruby's Restaurant in this location. Staff volume 42 - Page 422 bdTY OF NEWPORT dUACH COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES ROLL JLN co+ October 24, 1988 INDEX contacted the applicant and informed him D/P 3229(h) that at thi time this project had been originally approved by the City, there was no restaurant approved as a part of the application, but the proposed space was strictly for the use of the employes. The applicant than applied for an amendment to the use permit. .In . the sanction, as construction progressed, it was noted,by the Building Department that the type of equipment being installed, in terms of sinks. vents, refrigeration, ,cooking, etc., was the same that would be used foie a commercial restaurant. When the City brought this to the applicant's attention, and suggested that something on a smaller scale would be more appropriate for an amployeas cafeteria, it was very strongly indicated to staff, that regardless of whether the space was, to be used as a commercial,restauranis or an employees cafeteria, the identical equipment, floor plan, and facility was going to go into that space, and for that reason no "red tags," to the but of the Planning Director's knowledge, wari issued while allowing than to proceed with that space. ' , Doug Cavanaugh, owner of Ruby'sDiner, Tat., reprununting the applicant. Hr. W Nast, presented a graph which deucribas the different business hours of operation and,how thu traffic flow come", into the proposed Festaurant. He stated that Ruby's Dinar,. Inc., currently owns '• and operates six restaurant" in the greater Orange County area, three of which are in Newport Beach. He continued that shortly after the first use permit was issued to Newport Imports, he participated in the design Of the facility, and added that the structure will be a limited partnership and Ruby's Diner, Inc. being the gsneral partner with 50% equity. He stated that he fully recognise$ the traffic problems on Pacific Coast Highway and Riverside Drive, and does not want to add to those problems. He is confident that there arc ways to condition and mitigate the impact this project might have, and stated that theta are several positive features that the facility will have an the traffic in the eras, one of which is to provide a medium priced restaurant for the volume 42 - Page 423 .n :t..r TY OF NEWPORT St.ACH MINUTES COUNCIL MEMBERS � October 24. 1988 INDEX business and residential community U/P 3229(A) surrounding the dealership. There are currently 110 employees working in Newport Imports now, and he felt that those people would be more inclined:to stay on-site with a full-sexviee restaurant. He presented a petition signed by 125 local residents indicating their support for the project. He added that he would like to propose the following conditions of operation to mitigate the traffic impacts, and that would be to not open the facility to the public until 8:30 a.m., and close the •. facility between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m., to miss the afternoon rush. He stated that these suggested hours of operation were derived by their traffic engineer, Bill Darnell, and asked him to address the Council on this issue. Bill Darnell, Basmaciyan, Darnall, Inc., 3190 Airport Loop Drive, Costa Nee&, addressed the Council, stating that'hie firm was asked to evaluate the project and advise the applicant and Mr. Cavanaugh on what kind of mitigation measures could be developed that would Satisfy the TPO. He'stated that they went over the peak hour counts that the City generates for the TPO, and all the cumulative projects, and developed ICU'a on 15 minute increments, going from 7:00 a.m., to 9.15 a.m., and from 3:30 p.m. to 6:00 plm., using the background and existing traffic. They found that up to 8:00-9:00 a.m. the ICU remains over .90; and from 8:15-9:15 a.m., it starts diminishing drastically and comes down to an ICU of .90 which would satisfy the TPO. In the afternoons at 3:30-4:30 p.m. the ICU's were acceptable at .90; and at 3:45-4:45 p.m. acceptable at .90.- Be added that at 4:00 p.m. the ICU starts to break down and exceeds the .90 requirement of the TPO. Mr. Cavanaugh addressed the Council again, giving the following information with regard to enforceability of the restaurant hours of operation: Primarily, proper signage on the facility would educate the public as to i the time the restaurant was in operation, and after some time, there should be no problem. The results from a graph of his designer restaurants volume 42 - Page 424 • T ' . VTY OF •NEWPORT &dACH 1 COUNCIL MEMBERS MINUTES co Pal I ? � October 24, 1986 INDEX shows that the lowest demand time hours U1P 3229(A) are from 7s30-800 a.m., and from 4s30-5$30 p.m., and therefore, usage of the facility at these times would not present a significant traffic problem. The valet parking system would be of benefit because the valets could be educated to inform the public as to the hours of operation for the restaurant. They would like to have a trial period to sea if they could be successful, and if no. they would like to try it for a longer period, but that if the,results were negative, they would accept the conlaquences. ' Gail Demmer, 2812 Cliff Drive. representing the Newport Heights Community Association; addressed the Council, stating that there are many citizens in Newport Heights that have something to say about the proposed use parmit tonight, and asked for permission to speak on their behalf, with the following testimonyt Recently at a public forum Mo. Dommor attended, she picked up a Nowpoit Harbor Chamber of Commarce magazine, and referred to an article written by the Government Affairs Division in regard to the TPO, which states, "the City currently has a Traffic Phasing Ordinance adopted in 1978, which evaluates the traffic impact by now development, and requires traffic Improvements to be in place prior to the occupancy of the new development....the existing TPO is one of the most ., .,stringent ordinances of its type in the State of California, and this TPO has been affective in regulating local development and in providing needed road Improvements at no cost�to the taxpayers...we don't need any other initiatives, or ordinances when we have this very fine TPO in the City,-.-the way to regulate and deal with complicated and costly traffic solutions is through the existing TPO.." Ms. Demmer added that it is very interesting to note-that the Prosident of the Government Affairs Division has never bean a member of the Newport Heights Community Association, and the Associationcannot agree more thoroughly with what the business community, has to say about the TPO. Therefore, the Newport Haight$ Community Association asks that the Council support the findings for denial of volume 42 - Page 425 OF NEW-PORT 'Bti�CH MINUTES COUNCIL MEMBERS INDEX '0 October 24, 1988 ROLL Traffic Study No. 49, and Use Permit No. U/P 3229(A) 3229 (Amended), as the project does not moat the TPo requirements, and the • traffic generated onto Riverside Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway will increase the already intense traffic situation that presently exists: She also stated chat, in the traffic study findings prasantad to the.Council at the March 23, 1987 maeting,'the staff report, on - page 44; Item No. 2, states that the traffic study indicates the projact-generated traffic with neither ' cause, nor make worsa.an unsatisfactory rylevel of traffic on any major, p i modified, or primary street.' She stated that they believe-the traffic generated, onto Riverside Avenue and Avon Street iri11 most iirtainly be affected at an unsatisfactory Laval, and on Page 46. Itam No. '3, it stataa•the site shall-be designed and laid but to allow vehicle ' delivery trueks to drive from West Coast Highway through to Avon Strait. At the rims of the issuance of the original use permit, the association believed that the improvements on Avon were just for that'intended purpose, including their - employee traffic, but today we are realising a very major and very popular well-known restaurant will exit all its traffic from Avon Street. This is in violation of what the association perceives the intended usage of this street, and are of the opinion that this kind of traffic generation will require a double lefthand lane turn from Riverside south onto Pacific Coast Highway, and an intersection that is already in.need of a double lefthand turn possibility from Padific Coast Highway going north onto Rivaraide Avenue. They also believe that the protection and safety of spending bicycles, primarily from Ensign;Junior High school and Harbor High School will necessitate a light at Avon Street and Riverjide and they Councis support- ofstaf 'eindinge and conclusions. recommended to the Planning Commission and supported by the Commission, that -trip reduction methods do not appear redsonable.for the proposad•project.

This, including a retail clothing store, has been built without permit in the Newport Imports structure.

Balboa Boulevard; member of the Hoard of Directors of the. Balboa Pannineula Point Association, addressed the Council, stating that for all of thi reason given by Ns. Demmer previously, they too ato opposed to the proposed application, and urge the council's denial. Winn Rayl, 426 Ben Bernardino, Newport Heights, addressed the Council, stating that the residents were not aware that the neighborhood was being canvassed for signatures regarding the traffic in the area of the post office off of Riverside Avenue. She added that the traffic going to and out all day at the post office is affecting the small businesses in that area. 'She also stated that she is mainly concerned what will happen to the traffic situation if the restaurant, .which started out to'be an employees cafeteria, loss in, not to station the clothing store, and amphaslead that the public, along with the City, has been ' deceived. The Planning Director addressed the Council regarding the "boutique" clothing store, stating that the original plans that were approved did include a retail clothing store on the Premises, and the applicant, had a aimilar type of operation in another location with an automobile dealership and the sale of sportswear.

Be added,that be /P 3229(A) hss•saan the City approve close to a million feet of office space on Coast Highway, and the people that work in those offices get into their care and drive to a place to eat lunch. Be emphasized that the traffic is being created by the additional office space of the large businesses and banks, and not by the proposed small diner. Be stated, that to have a restaurant across the street has got to alleviate some of that traffic, and to have an opportunity where a small local businessman, who has done an outstanding job for the City, coma in with a diner where the public can spend $4 or $5, rather than $12, $15, or $20. without'going out of the City and alleviate traffic, seems to him a '4rin-win" situation. Be added that there are not enough inexpensive places to sat in the area, and that Buby's is a local business who is trying to help our City, vs. an out-of-stata chain type of operation, and ve should support our , local businessman.

Mr. Darnell stated, the analysis they did above that what trips the TPO is the traffic leaving the project site going out to Avon anUtrying to coma down to Riverside, but the employees are only Into the project site, and they would, not be impacting traffic, but the movement might exceed lg. He added that morning eastbound direction traffic using the "0-turn," and full use of the restaurant would not•trip the TPO even, with traffic from employees and in the afternoon, with the lx volume at 63 and the total project at 48, the TPO would not be tripped greater than 12 by the employees.

The project is proposed to provide approximately So seats and operate between 9 AM - and 9 PM. The restaurant is to be located inside the Newport Jaguar Auto Deal- ership building, and is proposed to take access from one driveway each on Coast Highway and Avon Street. The project vicinity is .,� shown on Figure I. Basmaciyan-Darnell, Inc. (BDI) has been retained to prepare a traffic impact study addressing the traf- fic-related impacts of the project. This study' is intended to satisfy the requirements of the City Of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) . ] EXISTING CONDITIONS �j The project site is located in the southwest portion of the City J of Newport Beach. Regional access to the area is provided by Coast Highway (State Route 1) and Newport Boulevard (State Route 55) . Local access is provided• by Coast Highway. The project 1 site is currently occupied by Newport Jaguar Auto Dealership. Land uses in the vicinity of the project include commercial office space, restaurants, and marine-related uses. ry Roadway Characteristics J �Qast H�,ghwS,Y (State Route 1 ► extends from Northern California :.� southerly along the coast to- San Clemente, where it becomes E1 Camino Real. In the vicinity of the project, Coast Highway is a lour-lane divided primary arterial with a center -turn lane and left-turn pockets at intersections. The Newport Imports exit on Coast Highway is posted, withsigns restricting left turns out. Left turns into the site are allowed from Coast Highway. j Riverside Avenue extends north from Coast Highway to 15th Street. J Between Coast Highway and Avon street, Riverside Avenue is a .lour-lane undivided roadway, narrowing to a two-lane undivided roadway north of Avon Street. Avon Street is a two-lane local roadway extending west from ., Riverside Avenue to the project and also extending east to Tustin Avenue. i I A16 f 1 • 11 ,a P P HOSPITALRD ' „1 PROJECT W1Dgon J � SITE rr.lrt? ffrri:r:•� 1 y ,, I Wct �ID4 0 �Rr • _�\NfL A I� .J 00 F,9 � Z .'] \ FIGURE 1 OASMACIYAN•DARNELL,INC.

The five intersections are: o Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road o Newport Boulevard and Via Lido o Pacific Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue o Pacific Coast Highway and Tustin Avenue o Pacific Coast Highwayarid Dover Drive/Bayshore Drive Figure 2 -presents the Ali/PM turning movements at each of the critical intersections. Each of the intersections are currently signalized, and have keen .analyzed by the City to determine the existing operating conditions, using the Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) methodology for signalized intersections. The results of the intersection analyses are shown in Table 1: Review of Tabled shows that all intersections analyzed are W rksh etsaare evel of Service "d" or contained in Appendix Abto this 'rep ies of the ICU report. PROJECT-RELATED TRAFFIC Trio Generation Tripmaking levels for the proposed project have been estimated, using trip generation rates published in the Institute of Trans- portation Engineers Trip Generation Manual 'and approved by the City of Newport Beach. When calculating the anticipated "trip generation levels from the proposed project, it is assumed that a portion of the restaurant clientele will be comprised of the Jemployees and patrons of the Newport Jaguar Dealership, and J pedestrian traffic from surrounding retail uses along Coast Highway. Therefore, a 20% reduction in vehicle ,trips has been taken to account for this non-vehicle traffic. Trip generation rites resulting trip are summarized on table generationproposed 3,300 square feet of restaurant use Review of Table 2 shows that the project is anticipated to generate 528• vehicles trips per day, with 50 in the morning peak hour, and 53 in the evening peak hour. The Cityl:s TPO analysis process also requires analysis of the /2 hour Generally,eak period for both the morning and the evening periods. hour peak period trip generation equals two times the peak hour :••' volumes. These 2-1/2 hour peak period volumes are also summa- rized on Table 2.

IMPACT ANALYSIS The city of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing ordinance requires project traffic impacts to be analyzed for both morning and evening peak conditions at critical intersections within the City as identified by the City's Traffic Engineer. The City Traffic Engineer has identified five (5) critical intersections. The five (5) - intersections were previously identified in the existing conditions section of this report. The process involves the evaluation of traffic conditions one year after opening of the. project. For purposes of this analysis, the year 1990 was uti- lized for the impact analysis. The analysis process includes regional traffic growth, approved projects traffic and project- related traffic. The evaluation process starts with the peak 2-1/2 hour intersec- tion analysis. This analysis utilizes the cumulative traffic morning and evening peak 2-1/2 hour analyses to -determine if the .l project's peak 2-1/2 hour volume exceeds 1% of the cumulative J peak period volume for any of the approaches to the critical intersection. If the project volume exceeds one percent (irk) , J Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) analyses are performed. If the ICU analysis identifies that the project causes the ICU to exceed 0.90 or makes worse an ICU value greater than 0.90, addi- tional analysis is required to develop specific mitigation meas- ures. The following sections discuss Regional Growth, Approved Projects, One Percent (1%) Analysis, and Intersection Capacity Utilization Analysis. ,•J Regional Growth ' The City has developed estimates of annual growth rates along major arterials within the City. These growth rates represent increases in traffic from growth and development in the surround- ing areas. Within these study area of the project the following growth rates were used: -7- 1 • �O 13% Pv HOVITALIID 1% 1%I `r'I 15% Y3 ..� VEpE1DE p11 .

The resulting volumes are included in the one percent (1%) analysis and ICU .� worksheets contained in Appendix B. ARinrov^ ed Projects The City of Newport Beach Traffic Engineer provides cumulative traffic volumes for each of -the critical intersections. These cumulative volumes include traffic from all approved projects that are not yet constructed and 1008 occupied. Table 3 lists the approved projects that are included for the cumulative analy- sis. The approved projects volumes were adjusted to reflect the loss of 30300 square feet -of auto dealership with the approval of the restaurant use. ' A diagram documenting this reduction in approved project trips is provided in Appendix B. tzr One Percent Anal-ysis JJ The project's morning and evening peak 2-1/2. hour volumes were assigned to each- of the five (5) critical intersections and compared to the cumulative 1990 volume to determine if the project's volume would exceed one percent (1%) of the existing, 1 regional growth and approved projects traffic at any of the l approaches to each critical intersection. Table 4 summarizes the results of these analyses. Review -of Table 4 identifies the Coast Highway and "Riverside Avenue intersection as the only intersection where project peak 2-1/2 hour volume exceeds 1% of cumulative volumes. A copy of the one percent analysis work- sheets are contained in Appendix C. , Intersection Cgpacity Analysis { The next step in the analysis process involves ICU analyses at J eacli of the critical intersections that project peak 2-1/2 hour traffic exceeds 1.%. Based on the analyses performed, only the intersection of Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue needs to have i ICU analyses performed. The analysis requires that ICU's be performed for existing condi- tions, 1990- Base conditions (Existing plus regional growth plus J approved projects) and 1990 Base Conditions plus project. The results of these analyses are presented in Table 5. Review of Table 5 shows that the Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue inter- section is presently operating with an• AH ICU - 0.77 and a PM ICU - 0:77. For 1990 Base Conditions the AH ICU - 0.90 and the PH - 0.90. The addition' of project traffic to the 1990 Base Condi- -10- s t.

In summary it can be concluded that the proposed Newport Imports Restaurant project satisfies the requirements of the City of Newport Traffic Phasing Ordinance wherein the project traffic + does not exceed 1% of peak 2-1/2 hour traffic and/or the project does not cause a critical intersection AM or PM ICU to -exceed 1 0.90 or' make the ICU worse. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS o The proposed project is to consist of opening an existing 3,300 suare feet of restaurant JJ ace approved for use for employees to serve patrons and provide full service restau- rant operations: o The restaurant use is estimated to generate 528 daily vehi- cle trips. In the AM peak there will be 28. vehicles enter- ing the project site and 22 vehicles exiting the site. The PM peak is expected to have 28 vehicles entering and 25 vehicles exiting the project site. o One percent (1%) analyses was performed for five (5) criti- cal intersections in the vicinity of the project, .as identi- fied by 'the city's Traffic Engineer. Project Peak '2-1/2 Hour traffic is estimated to exceed 1% at Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue. At all other intersections the project peak 2-1/2 hour traffic is less than 1% of Base 1990 traffic 1 volumes. o For Coast Highway at Riverside Avenue the ICU analyses found that for Base 1990 conditions the AM and PM peak hour •ICU's equal 0.90 and the addition of project traffic does not make the ICU worsefic Conditions the. project AM With and PMICU s bothfequal added0. to Ba$e 1990 0, J o The project has been evaluated for conformance to the City dinance (TPO mof eets wand was found rto satisfy taffic hoserrequirements.) require- 1 ..l J • -14- 1 1 l .

Traffic Study No. 58 (Continued Public Hearing) Request to accept a. traffic study so as to permit the conversion of an approved employees' cafeteria with a restaurant facility with on- sale beer and wine which will operate in conjunction with the existing Newport Imports Automobile dealership. AND B. Use Permit No 3229 m nd Continued Public Hearing) A request to amend a previously approved use permit which permitted the construction of an automobile dealership which exceeded the 26 foot basic height limit in the 26/35 Height Limitation District, on ,property located in the 'Retail and Service Commercial" area of the Mariner's Mile Specific Plan. The proposed amendment includes a request to convert an approved employees' cafeteria into a restaurant facility with on-sale beer and wine which will operate in conjunction with the auto dealership. The proposal also includes: a request to permit a portion of the required restaurant parking on an adjoining parcel which is in the same ownership as the subject property; and a request to delete or modify Condition of Approval No. 13 of Use Permit No. 3229, so as to allow all night security lighting at the rear bf the building, adjacent to Avon Street, whereas said lighting is currently required to be turned off at 10:00 p.m. LOCATION: Restaurant Site: Parcel 1 of Parcel Map No. 87-106 (Resubdivision No. 840), located at 3000 West Coast Highway; Off-Site Parking Site: a portion of Lot F, Tract No. 919, located at 2922 - 2940 West Coast Highway; both sites being on the northerly side of West Coast Highway between North Newport 'Boulevard and Riverside Avenue, in Mariner's Mile. ZONE: SP-5 APPLICANT: Lee West, Newport Beach OWNER: Same as applicant TO: Planning Commission -2. Considerations of Previous P=pjeet AAj2proval at 2912 Nest Coact Highway (i a Pr000sed Site of Restaurant Parking Spaces) On August 18, 1988, the Planning Commission addressed Traffic Study No. 48, including a request to override the requirements of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance, Vesting Resubdivision No. 876, a request to resubdivide two existing parcels of land into a single parcel for commercial development, and Use Permit No. 3317, which was a request to permit the construction of a 23,593± sq.ft, retail-office building with a gross structural area in excess of 0.5 times the buildable area of the site, a request to exceed the 26 foot basic height limit in the 26/35 Foot Height Limitation Zone, and a request for a modification to the Zoning Code so as to allow the use of compact parking on the subject property. The requests were unanimously denied by the Planning Commission. On September 26, 1988 and October 24, 1988, the City Council addressed the applications on the appeal of the applicant, at which time the applicant presented revised plans which eliminated the need for a use permit to exceed the permitted height or allowable gross structural area and which conformed to the requirements of the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance. On October 24, 1988, the City Council voted unanimously to approve the applications with the findings and subject to the conditions set forth in the attached Exhibit "A" from the October 24, 1988 City Council staff report. Although said approval is still in effect and could be implemented by the applicant, it should be noted that said project provides only enough parking spaces to meet its own parking requirement (65 spaces provided, 63 spaces required); therefore, it is not possible to implement the previously approved project and still use the site for off-site parking in conjunction with the proposed restaurant. In light of such circumstances, should the Planning Commission approve the current applications for the subject restaurant, said action will render the previous approvals for Site Plan Review 49, Vesting Resubdivision No. 876 and Traffic Study No. 48 (Revised) null and void. Staff is also suggesting the following additional finding and condition of approval: B. Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) Finding: 11. That the applicant's intended use of the property located at 2912 West Coast Highway for off-site parking in conjunction with the proposed restaurant, will nullify the previous approval of Site Plan Review No. 49, Vesting Resubdivision No. 876 and Traffic Study No. 48 (Revised) inasmuch as there is insufficient parking on said property to satisfy the parking requirements of both projects. Condition: 32. Implementation of Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended), as approved by the Planning Commission on September 7, 1989 shall nullify the previous approval of Site Plan Review No. 49, Vesting Resubdivision No. 876 and Traffic Study No. 48 (Revised). ��3 1 L TO: Planning Commission -3.

August 18, 1988 ys 9� o CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL In response to a request by James Hewicker, Planning Director, so as to explain how Vesting Resubdivision Maps differ from Subdivision Maps, Carol Korade, Assistant City Attorney, referred to Chapter 19.1/� of the Newport beach Municipal Coda. Ms. Korade stated that the Vesting Tentative Map Ordinance was passed by State statute in 1986; it addressed- concerns of developers who would obtain approval for a project and then thb applicable city would change the rules for development. The said Ordinance established rules for development procedure that would be set at the time of the final approval of a vested subdivision map. In reference to the subject application, Ms. Korade stated that th¢ approval by the Planning Comission would give the applicant the right to proceed in accordance with tha plans that were submitted and the conditions that t`te Planning commission approved. She said that future requirements for zoning, development fees, etc. could not be changed. Mr. Newicker stated that the vesting tentative map ordinance insures that any change to the General Plan, the Traffic Phasing Ordinance, or any new traffic management initiatives will not have an affect on the proposed project. The vesting does not obligate the City to approve the project, but he said that once the project has been completed for filing, then the applicant has the right within the timeframe to proceed with the project. In response to questions posed by Chairman Persdn, Ms. Korade replied that the vesting right at the time of development would he subject to the current rules of the City. Ms. Korade stated that an applicant has three years to obtain approval of a final map with a two year possible extension, and the applicant has the vested' right of one year following the approval of the final map, with a one year possible extension. Therefore, the applicant could have up to seven years to complete the project under the current rules of development to complete the project. Ms. Korade further replied that the vesting map does not affect the use permit inasmuch as a use permit regulates the use of She project. She said that the applicant may have the right to build a project but they may have to reapply for a use. permit, should the project construction not be begun within 24 months and diligently pursued to completion. -13- COMMISSIONERS MINUTES 00 August 18, 1988 �y CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL In response to questions posed by Commissioner Di Sano, Mr. Hewicker replied that if the applicant pulled a building permit to start construction, they have started to exercise their use permit; however, if they did not pursue construction diligently then there could be a problem regarding the building permit. Mr. Hewicker. asked if a vesting resubdivision map was approved, the applicant allowed the use permit to expire, and the traffic study was denied, can the applicant proceed with a project that is reduced in size which does not require a traffic study but could proceed under the current Traffic Phasing Ordinance as opposed to any hew traffic management initiative that might be passed? Ms. Korade replied that if the applicant has received vesting approval then there is the right to develo? in accordance with the terms of the vesting approval. If the Traffic Study was denied, then the applicant could develop in accordance with the vesting resubdivision providing that it was consistent with the terms of the approval of the vesting resubdivision. Ms. Korade explained that Condition No. 2 in Exhibit "A" states "that the floor area of the project shall be reduced by an amount necessary to meet the requirements of the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance." , which means that the project would be able to proceed with a reduction as long as it did not violate the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance as it exists today without complying with any future initiative revisions. Discussion ensued regarding the Traffic Phasing Ordinance between Commissioner Pomeroy and staff. In response to a quLation posed by Commissioner Pomeroy, Ms. Korade replied that the vesting map could be denied when and if the applicant came back to the Planning Commission to request an extension of the application. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Pomeroy regarding a vesting tentative map as opposed to a tentative map, Mr. Hewicker replied that the applicant is required, to submit information for a vesting map that he would not normally be required to file in conjunction with a tentative map. He said that the purpose of the vesting map is to protect the developer when he has invested a large sum of money in the. preparation of plans to develop a project. In response to questions posed by Commissioner Debay regarding the vesting resubdivision application, Mr. Hewicker and Ms. Korade replied that Planning Commission -14- _ COMMISSIONERS ( MINUTES ` August 18. 1988 JG 4 9,p� 1y7� CITY OF NEWPORT $EACH rINDEX ROLL CALL approval of the vesting resubdivision map would allow the applicant to proceed with a project with no further discretionary approvals. Hr. Hewicker stated that under the existing Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) the existing uses on the property generate 214 average daily trips (ADT), and the applicant would be able to add an additional 130 ADT without having to go through the City's TPO. Hr. Hewicker further explained the type and intensity of development which might be built on the site; some of which would not necessarily require a use permit to exceed the height limit, a use permit to exceed the .5 FAR as established by the Specific Area Plan, or the approval of a TPO override. In referunce to the staff report, Hr. Hewicker explained that thei Planning Commission approved the following projects to exceed .5 FAR which would require marine oriented uses: Use Permit No, 3086, 2901 West Coast Highway, of the total project's 16.253 square feet the required marine oriented use of 1,353 square feet, 8 percent, has been leased; Use Permit No. 2051, 2081 West Coast Highway, of the total proyeet's 8,682 square feet the required marine oriented use of 1,780 square feet, 21 percent, has been leased. Hr. Hewicker stated that if the floor area ratio of the subject project included the 46,405 square f6ot parking structure as part of the floor area ratio, the floor area ratio would be increased from .69 FAR to 1.36 FAR. Discussion ensued between Hs. Korade and Commissioner Debay regarding .action 19.14.030, the approval or conditional approval of a vesting tentative map. The public hearing was opened in connection with this item. Hr. Said Shokrian, applicant, appeared before the Planning Commission. He submitted four letters of approval from the Newport Heights Homeowner's Association and adjacent property owner$. Hr, Shokrian stated that he and his architect, Hr. Brion Jeannette, have met with the Board of Directors of the Newport Heights Homeowner's Association so ,as to address their concerns; the project • is an aesthetically attractive building; that the project will enhance the Mariner's Mile area; that they attempted to accommodatethe City of the needs and issues that are important Y -15- �I `, 1 .. COMMISSIONERS ( MINUTES p August 18, 1988 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH •ROLL CALL : INDEX the homeowners; that the project has been designed to create a village-type atmosphere and to increase more pedestrian traffic and a service oriented mall for the residents; that the project is small in size and density compared to adjacent projects in the area; that the building will not result in an abrupt change in scale from the surrounding buildings; the proposed building is 34 feet high -and is set back from West Coast Highway; that the building is ' designed and set back so as to preserve views; that the landscaping and open space will be aesthetically pleasing; that the building area over .5 FAR which will be used for marine oriented uses includes only 4,500 square feet of the total building space; that the applicant would not be creating traffic problems; and he concluded that he perceives problems if a project is not developed on the site by 1990. In response to a question posed by Chairman Pers6n concerning the project contributing traffic congestion, and Mr. Shokrian'a foregoing statement regarding the TPO, Mr. Shokrian replied that he does not deny the existence of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. In response to questions posed by Commissioner Winburn regarding Mr. Shokrian's foregoing statement that the marine-oriented use would constitute 4,500 square feet, Mr. Shokrian explained -how said square footage was calculated inasmuch as the staff report states 6,400 square feet of buildable area would require incentive use. Mr. Hewicker explained that the buildable area is arrived at by multiplying 34,191 square feet times .19 FAR. In response to a question posed by Chairman Pers6n, Mr. Shokrian replied that some of the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A" are acceptable to him, and that Mr. Jeannette would completely respond to the question. In reference to the pending China Palace Restaurant lawsuit, Mr. Shokrian explained for clarification that he has been informed by the Court of Appeal that during the month of September there would be a decision on the hearing. He stated that if the decision would be in -his favor that the China Palace Restaurant would operate on a monthly basis including one month's notice to vacate. If the decision would be against him, Mr. Shokrian explained that he would have to wait until the China Palace Restaurant lease expires in September, 1991. -16- r19 • t ' COMMISSIONERS ( MINUTES y4 et^sP �ep�o August 18, 1988 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX . Mr. Brien Jeannette, Architect, appeared before the Planning Commission. He stated that the applicant is requesting a modification to allow 22 percent compact parking spaces; that the maximum height is proposed to be 34 feet; and that the floor area ratio exceeds .5 FAR. Mr. Jeannette stated that the intent is to create a nautical theme in the Mariner's Mile area that will enhance the destination point concept of a village area. Mr. Jeannette presented a slide show of the proposed project depicting the area that would be demolished so as to construct the project; he compared the 34 foot height of the proposed project to the height of the adjacent,.and nearby developments on West Coast Highway; the view from the surrounding areas and the affect that the-proposed project would have on the adjacent sites; the architectural desigi: of the proposed building; the setbacks to West Coast F.ighway; the proposed landscaped , area; the parking area; and that if West Coast Highway is widened the proposed landscaping and structure would continue to enhance the village=type atmosphere. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Winburn, Mr. Jeannette replied that the views from Cliff Drive to the bay that were shown on the slides were in direct proportion to the buildings surrounding the area. In reference to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance, Mr. Jeannette objected that the proposed project should be penalized for the traffic problems that have been created in the area from previous developments, and he emphasized that the development would enhance the area. Mr. Jeannette stated that he had conferred with DKS Traffic Consultants, who had spoken to staff, and that the consultants had suggested mitigation measures. Discussion ensued between Chairman Person and Mr. Jeannette regarding the information that Mr. Jeannette was considering to submit to the Planning Commission regarding issues which might mitigate the TPO. Commissioner Pomeroy stated that if mhd building would be used for office the project would W'able to pass the TPO. He said that if the project provided access to West Coast Highway it would relieve the congestion at the intersection of West Coast Highway and Riverside Drive, that may allow a change in the ratio back towards more retail and less office. Mr. Hewicker stated that by providing access on West Coast Highway and -17- nn I - / MINUTES COMMISSIONERS C 9fp� o�7�Gv� August 18, 1988 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL eliminating the China Palace Restaurant, it would destroy a major justification for approving the proposed building height in excess of 26 feet. In response to a question posed by Mr. Jeannette regarding if a building exceeding 10,000 square feet would .not automatically be subject to a TPO, Mr. Hawicker explained that by giving credit for. the China Palace Restaurant and the adjacent radio shop which are currently located on the site and will be removed, staff has given credit for 214 AD1 and the TPO allows an additional 130 ADT. Mr. Jeannette stated that a building could be redesigned but he was not certain if the building would meet the needs of the residents in the area inasmuch as the development would provide loc.tl mixed uses. Discussion ensued between Mr. Jeannette and Commissioner Debay regarding the need for additional marine-oriented uses in the area based on the foregoing statement by Mr. Hewicker regarding the vacancy rate in the Mariner's Mile area. The Planning Commission recessed at 9:15 p.m. and reconvened at: 9:25 p.m. In reference to the foregoing Condition No. 2, Mr. Jeannette and Chairman Persdn discussed the applicant's consideration to redesign the project so as to meet the TPO standards. Chairman Persdn explained that the Planning Commission is required to approve only the project that has ')eon applied for, and Mr. Jeannette stated that based on that conclusion the applicant would request that the foregoing Condition No. 2 be deleted and the Planning Commission override the TPO. In reference to Condition No. 6 which states "that no building permit shall be issued prior to the demolition of all• buildings currently on the -site.", Mr. Jeannette requested that the condition be modified to state that the applicant could not occupy the building until the China Palace Restaurant has been demolished. Discussion ensued. between Mr. Jeannette, Planning Commission, and staff regarding the construction of -the project so as to not impact said restaurant, and the location of the required restaurant parking until the restaurant building has been demolished. In reference to Condition No. 23 which states that "this use permit shall expire _18_ MINUTE$ ' COMMISSIONERS C August 18, 1988 Gay '�,9Q� yo CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL unless exercised' within 24 months. .", Mr. Jeannette concluded that the applicant may request that the use permit be extended one year so as to expire in 1991 when .the China Palace Restaurant lease would be terminated. Mr. Jeannette commented that the construction could commence on the site prior to October 24, 1991, when the lease expires so as to activists the use permit. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Merrill regarding equipment on the roof of the proposed project, Mr. Jeannette replied that the only equipment that would be penetrating would be plumbing vents. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Debay regarding the parking structure, Mr. Jeannette described the two level parking structure. He stated that the lower floor is subterranean by four feet and the upper floor is ten feet above the natural grade. Mr. James O'Brian, 611 Anton Boulevard, Costa Mesa, Attorney for Mr. Shokrian, appeared before the Planning Commission. Mr. O'Brian discussed the Traffic Phasing Ordinance and the provisions of the Ordinance. He said that his review of the Ordinance was to determine if the Ordinance would be subject to challenge and he concluded that it is not, that it is well drafted, and that the City' Attorney's Office .did an able job. Mr. O'Briatt stated that he studied the Ordinance as it applies to ! the particular factual situation, and he commented that the staff report indicates that there are ways to mitigate the application of the Ordinance but that none of them apply to the subject project. He said that one of the mitigating mans would be to contribute to a fund, where there was a proposal to do some alterations to the offending intersection within 48 months and it is acknowledged that is not a feasible possibility in this case. Mr. O'Brian referred to' page 9 of the staff report, and he stated that staff is of the view that there must be a finding set forth by the Planning Commission the reasons that the benefits of the project ;;including trip generation reduction outweigh the project's anticipated negative impact on transporation facilities. He said that the staff report refers to Section 15.40.030(D) of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance and the staff reads that the benefits of the project "shall" include trip owever, he said that he reads it generation reductions; h , g that the benefits of the project "May" include trip -19- COMMISSIONERS MINUTES August 18, 1988 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL generation reductions. Mr. O'Brian commented that if it is "may", then the Planning Commission may consider all aspects of the project in considering whether to override the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. Mr. O'Brian suggested that from a casual reading of the Ordinance as well as a careful reading of the Ordinance that it is not mandatory that there be trip generation reduction only that it is one of the elements that may be considered. He said that if that criteria is used and the Planning Commission considers all of the aspects that have been presented that speak favorably to the project, then the Planning Commission has the authority to indicate that the benefits outweigh the negative impact to override that Ordinance. Mrs. Gail Demmer, 2812 Cliff Drivs, President before Newport Heights Community Association, appeared the Planning Commission. Mrs. Dedaner stated that the proposed project is an exemplary example of the design principles which enhances the village atmosphere of Mariner's Mile. She stated that said Association supports the large setbacks that will provide substantial landscaping, and the available parking spaces for the patrons and employees. She said that said Association has concerns regarding the preservation of public views from the public parks; that the project shall exceed .5 FAR; that said Association challenges marine-oriented use to compromise the height and density in Mariner's Mile; that the view corridors be maintained; that there be no mitigation on Avon Street; that Cliff Drive Park and Avon Street are the only buffers in the intense commercial development that have continued to progress beyond .5 FAR; that the residents oppose commercial parking and traffic through their neighborhood; that the residents oppose ingress/egress on Avon Street; that they object to no curb cuts at the subject location on West Coast Highway; and that said Association supports the foregoing Condition No. 2 and Condition No. 5 regarding preservation of views. Ms. Korade referred to page 9 and Section 15.40.030(D) and Mr. O'Brian's statement, and the Jpterpretation of the sentence that states that the benefits of the project, including trip generation reductions, outweigh the project's anticipated negative impact on transportation facilities. .". She stated that if the parenthetical statement "including trip generation reduction", is removed, the intent of the section is to require an analysis of whether "the benefits of the -20- /�J • I t COMMISSIONERS ( - MINUTES August 18, 1988 6 OD yi y s. CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX project outweigh the project's anticipated negative impacts on transportation facilities". She said the primary section is the balancing analysis of benefits vs. negatives and examination of the impact on transportation 'facilities. Ms. Korade stated that the torn "including trip generation reduction", requires an analysis if it is of benefit, and indicates an intent that the benefits should be transportation related. This could include an analysis of benefits other than trip generation reduction but the benefits of the project should be transportation related and the detriment should be transportation related. What this Section requires is a weighing of transportation benefits,against transportation negatives. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Pomeroy, Ms. Korade replied that the correct word would be "that the benefits of the project 'should' Include an analysis of trip generation reductions", but that "trip generation reduction" alone is not necessarily required. Mr. Don Williams, 2936 Cliff Drive, appeared before the Planning Commission. Mr. Williams referred to Mr. Jeannette's slide presentation, and he addressed the loss of view from the park to the bay; he contradicted the height of the Newport Import building; that the traffic on Avon Street would require that the street be completed to Newport Boulevard; the loss of view corridors; and that post office employees are parking on residential streets. Mr. Hewicker stated that he was informed that the post office employees would park in an area that would be more accessible to them, if available; however. until then they consider parking on Avon Street, Riverside Drive, and Cliff Drive as public , parking areas. In response to a concern posed by Mr. Williams regarding marine-oriented uses, Mr. Hewicker replied that there are marine related uses that do not require that they 'be on the waterfront. Mr. Williams objected to the precedent relating to height and density that has been set on Mariner's Mile. Mr. Don Webb, .City Engineer, referred to Mr. Williams' concerns regarding Avon 'Street, and he`,said that there are no construction plans for the extension of Avon Street. He stated that the City Council is currently considering additional- parking spaces on Avon Street that would include a cul-de-sac behind Newport Imports, it would -preclude the extension, but 'it would not require the extension. Mr. Webb stated that Avon Street -21- COMMISSIONERS ( MINUTES yq �4 �p �►�"B August 18. 1988 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL is not on a Master Plan of Circulation, it is a local street right-of-way, and to remove the street would be to abandon the street right-of-way. Mr. Webb stated that Avon Street connection would not be directly to Old Newport Boulevard but it would connect to Santa Ana Avenue. Mr. Dennis Harwood, 19800 MacArthur Boulevard, Irvine, appeared before the Planning Commission on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Mau, owners and operators of the China Palace Restaurant. Mr. Harwood requested that the Planning Commission take no action to prejudice the rights of his clients. He said that the Court has determined that the lease runs until 1991, that Mr. Shokrian has appealed that decision, and that the argument on the appeal will be heard in September. He stated that the China Palace Restaurant end the parking area are in the possession of Mr. and !ors. Mau until 1991. He suggested that it should be based on those facts that the Planning Commission should reach their determination. Mr. Harwood stated that Mr. Mau has an approved parking agreement insuring that 20 parking spaces will be provided adjoining the restaurant's site which would be the area that the proposed project would be developed, and he addressed concerns regarding the impact of future traffic congestion in the area. Ms. Korade referred to Mr. Harwood's statement requesting that the Planning Commission abstain or base their decision on the existing litigation between the property owner and lessee. Ms. Korade stated that it is the position of the City Attorney's Office that the action of the Planning Commission does not affect the existing disputed property rights. If the Planning Commission granted any type of use permit, approve a traffic study, recommend the vesting resubdivision, this would not give the applicant any right to contravene another party's existing property rights. I In response to a question posed by Chairman Pers6n regarding the foregoing Condition No. 6 requiring the demolition of all buildings currently ,on the site, Mr. i Hewicker replied that the City did not want to get into a position where a building permit would be issued for the new building, allow the construction of that building to proceed, and then a point would be reached where the City could not issue an Occupancy Permit and then have the applicant demand or sue the City. -22- ra� COMMISSIONERS ( "-( MINUTES co August 18. 1988 4M 9 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH " ROLL CALL INDEX There being no others desiring to appear and be beard, the public hearing was closed at this time. Notion was made to deny Traffic Study No. 48, Use Permit Motion NO. 3290, and Vesting Resubdivision No. 876 subject to the findings in Exhibit "8". Commissioner Winburn stated that she would support the motion. She explained that she would not override the z Traffic Phasing Ordinance, and that. the Planning Commission cannot consider a redesign of the proposed project as suggested by Hr. Jeannette, without seeing the plan. 'Commissioner Winburn indicated an interest in seeing the traffic mitigation for the exit on West Coast Highway as opposed to ingress/egress on Avon Street. She addressed the project's •bulk; that the marine- oriented uses designated for the two developments on West Coast Highway are presntly not as successful as was anticipated.

Don Webb, City Engineer, stated that the analysis at that intersection is 0.904 which is slightly greater than 0.90; however, staff, in accordance with Traffic Phasing Ordinance guidelines, rounded the figure off to two decimal points to 0.90. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Debay with respect to the traffic count, Mr. Webb explained that the traffic fluctuates from year to year- and during the past -12- ,/ r 4P COMMISSIONERS MINUTES o September 7, 1989 0 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH INDEX ROLL CALL Highway. He stated that several previous project approvals that were used as committed traffic in the area in previous traffic studies have sunsetted and were not included; therefore, the projected number of trips were less. Mr. Webb further explained that in the project's previous study, 3,300 square feet of floor area was counted twice, once as a restaurant and once as a portion of the car dealership. Commissioner Merrill suggested that the traffic counts may have been reduced because of the construction activity on West Coast Highway. Mr. Webb stated that the traffic counts were monitored in May, 1989. Commissioner Pers6n asked why the projects traffic study was not done at the intersection of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway. Mr. Webb explained that the restaurant did not provide 1% or greater traffic at said intersection. ' In response to questions posed by Commissioner Merrill, Mr. Webb explained that staff analyzes the square footage of a restaurant and does not consider the success of a restaurant. Commissioner Pers6n asked if the traffic analysis considered the Planning Commission removing the use permit and rights granted for the original China Palace as well as the project proposed at 2912 and 2930 West Coast Highway. Mr. Webb stated that the I.C.U. would be reduced from 0.904 to 0.903, if they were removed. ' Commissioner Debay asked if the Planning Commission should be concerned that the applicant is currently operating the requested restaurant without a use permit? Robert Burnham, City Attorney, replied "no". He explained that the only important factor relates to the likelihood -that the applicant will comply with the conditions of approval of the items before the Planning Commission. He stated that it would be difficult for the Planning Commission to take action on the assumption that the applicant may not comply in the future with the approval because the City has the ability to enforce the conditions through revocation or court action. The public hearing was opened in connection with this item. Mr. Richard Dear, attorney for the applicant, appeared before the Planning Commission. Mr. Dear stated that the applicant concurs with the findings and conditions in Exhibit W. Mr. Dear -13- COMMISSIONERS MINUTES ' o September 7, 1989 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX customers, 93 percent were Newport Import employees, and 7 percent were customers who were in the establishment having their automobiles repaired or the general public. Mr. Dear maintained that the applicant has complied with Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) that has been granted. He explained that the applicants have not advertised that the restaurant is open to the general public. Mrs. Janine Gault, 406 San Bernadino Avenue, appeared before the Planning Commission as a representative of the Newport Heights Community Association. She stated that the Board of Directors do not object to a small restaurant in the area; however, the Board does object to a restaurant that has the potential to force traffic in the residential neighborhood and to necessitate a traffic signal at the intersection of Riverside Avenue and Avon Street or the continuation of Avon Street to Santa Ana Avenue. Mrs. Gault explained that after the Board of Directors studied the traffic study regarding the intersection of Riverside Avenue and West Coast Highway, it was concluded that there has to be a reason why the I.C.U. was reduced temporarily. Mrs. Gault questioned the traffic study's statement with respect to a 20 percent reduction in vehicle trips due to pedestrian traffic, and she said that the 20 percent assumption could have a bearing on the TPO. Mr. Webb explained that the 20 percent reduction was based on the number of walk-in persons in the area, and the percentage is not unusual for a restaurant. Mrs. Gault stated that the Newport Heights Community Association is consistent with its concerns regarding Avon Street, inadequate parking.in Mariner's Mile, and increased traffic in the area. She asked what project is .proposed for the property at 2912 and 2930 West Coast Highway? In response to a question posed by Commissioner Edwards, Mrs. Gault replied that the Newport Heights Community Association is not requesting denial; however, they are concerned with the proposal. Lee West, applicant, and Mr. Dear appeared before the Planning Commission. Commissioner Pers6n asked if, Mr. Dear and W. West had the opportunity to review the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A", in the staff report and the addendum to the staff report? Mr. Dear stated that they had met and conferred. Mr. West stated that he would abide by the conditions of approval. Commissioner Pers6n referred to the condition with respect to nullifying the previous development rights of the proposed office -14- C' �d '"COMMISSIONERS MINUTES ,r o�,� September 7, 1989 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, ROLL CALL INDEX Mr. West if that would be an acceptable condition. Mr. West replied that it is an acceptable condition because he will not be developing that project; however, he said that he has plans to develop a project on the property in the future. Mr. West stated that it was his understanding that Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended), Finding No. it and Condition No. 32 nullified Site Plan Review No. 49, Vesting Resubdivision No. 876, and Traffic Study No. 48 (Revised) because he intends to use the site for parking spaces for the restaurant. Commissioner Merrill referred to Finding'No. 6 of Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) which states 'That the restaurant site and' the off-site parking areas are in the same ownership". Mr. West explained that the property is in escrow until the owner locates another piece of property; however, he has approval to use the location from the property owner. Mr. Dear explained that Mr. West has an agreement with Mr. Shokrian to use the property. Mr. West stated that the original China Palace Restaurant will be demolished immediately. Commissioner Pers6n stated in the event the Planning Commission approves the subject project, that the action was not based on stories in the newspapers that state that Mr. West has an intention of.suing the City. Mr. West stated that no further action has been taken with respect to the pending lawsuit. Commissioner Pers6n stated that he would not condone violations to the Newport Beach Municipal Code by approving anything that the applicant, may desire if the Planning Commission should approve the project. Mr. West stated that he would accept Commissioner Pers6n's statement. Commissioner Debay stated that the Planning Commission has the revocation of a use permit as a weapon if a project is violated, and she asked what kind of a threat that is to an applicant that operates a restaurant without a use permit? Mr. Burnham explained that the City Attorney's office filed a lawsuit seeking to enjoin the applicant's.operation of a restaurant in the absence of a use permit. He said that it would be his opinion that in the absence of the applicant's application for a use permit the City would have been successful in its lawsuit. He said that the City would be able to enforce through the revocation process or through an independent action in Superior Court any conditions of approval that the Planning Commission is imposing on the project. -15- ��9 ' 'COMMISSIONERS MINUTES ISeptember 7, 1989 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX Mrs. Gail Demmer, 2812 Cliff Drive, represented herself and as a member of the Newport Heights Community Association before the Planning,Commission. She said that the Association cannot deny the .application. Mrs. Demmer stated that the Association is concerned with the growth surrounding Avon Street, that they do not want to see ingress and egress on Avon Street, and the overflow of traffic from West Coast Highway mitigated to Avon Street into the residential community. Mrs. Demmer stated that when the adopted General Plan was initiated, the intent was that development shall not generate more traffic than the ultimate circulation system could accommodate and that the commercial and residential areas,sball' be compatible and serve each others interests. Mrs. Demmer questioned' the need for a restaurant at the subject site, and the impact the project will have on the community and the traffic on West Coast Highway and Avon Street. I& Burnham stated that the adopted General Plan intended to lower permitted intensities of development throughout the City. Mr. Burnham referred to the staff report, and he addressed how the subject project adheres to the 0.5 FAR and the flexible floor area ratios adopted by the Planning Commission and City Council for uses that generate traffic. He explained that the floor area ratio of the subject area is 0.5, the weighted floor area ratio, including the restaurant and the automobile uses on- site, is 0.389; therefore, the use is consistent with the General Plan and a use that is permitted under the General Plan. Dr. Jan VanderSloot, 2221 - 16th Street, appeared before the Planning Commission. Dr. VanderSloot referred to his letter to the Planning Commission dated September 7, 1989, and he requested that the Planning Commission deny the subject traffic study and use permit. He stated that the Newport Heights Community Association did vote to deny the use permit. He addressed his concerns with respect to the proposed traffic circulation off of Avon Street and West Coast Highway; that the 3,300 square feet that was deleted from the dealership because of the restaurant tilted the TPO to .906; the assumption that 20 percent of the customers relate directly to the dealership should be included in the 3,300 square feet; recalculate the traffic study involving 2912 and 2930 West Coast Highway based on the 20 percent walk-in traffic; that to give 20 percent allowances demeans traffic studies as far as a TPO is concerned and it makes for arbitrary decisions; security lighting at the rear of the property is not turned off as required in Condition No. 13 of -16- /FO "COMMISSIONERS MINUTES N\\\ ;eSeptember 7, 1989 NEWPORT BEACH CITY OF ROLL CALL INDEX LCLWU the lights do not turn up into the residential area; and he concluded his presentation by stating that the applicant was flouting the laws and getting away with it. In response to a questions posed by Chairman Pomeroy with respect to what affect the deletion of 3,300 square feet and the 20 percent walk-in would have on the TPO, Mr. Webb replied that he did not believe the deletion of 3,300 square feet would "tip" the TPO; however, he said that the 20 percent walk-in may affect the TPO. In response to a question posed by Chairman Pomeroy with' respect to Condition No. 13 concerning the lighting, William Laycock, Current Planning Manager, stated that the applicant has not turned the lights off at 10:00 p.m. as required in the original use permit. However, the applicant has now requested to delete or modify that condition of approval. He explained that Finding No. 7 has been added to the subject use permit which states "That the requested security lighting adjacent to Avon Street will be operated so as not to be objectional to residential properties on Cliff Drive and from the public view park• on the same street.". Commissioner Pers6n asked if the City Engineer and the City Traffic Engineer are satisfied that the traffic study represents an accurate view of the situation that the Planning Commission can make an intelligent decision from? Mr. Webb responded "yes". Dr. VanderSloot explained that a traffic calculation that he tabulated with the City Traffic Engineer diverting to Tustin Avenue was .905, and he said that to direct two automobiles to Tustin Avenue and Riverside Avenue would be .906. Mr. Burnham explained that the 3,300 square feet proposed as a restaurant will generate traffic at a certain rate, and that rate would be greater than if the 3,300 square feet would be a part of the dealership. Dr. VanderSloot and Mr. Burnham discussed the auto dealership use of the 3,300 square feet. Mr. Burnham stated that the traffic generation characteristics that are counted on auto dealerships are based on.gross square footage of the structure without regard to what area within that structure is going to have more activity than other areas. The Planning Commission recessed at 9:00 p.m. and reconvened at 9:08 p.m. =17- `sI • COMMISSIONERS MINUTES A o September 7, 1989 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX Mrs. Karen Harrington, 441 Santa Ana Avenue, appeared before the Planning Commission to request that the Planning Commission deny the project on the basis that a projected 600 automobiles on Avon Street would have an impact on the area, and she asked what the future plans are to expand Avon Street. Mr, Webb explained that the current plans do not provide for the extension of Avon Street beyond what is presently under construction, and there is no funding to extend Avon Street. Mrs. Harrington stated her concern that Avon Street would be eventually extended to Santa Ana Avenue so as to alleviate the traffic impact on Riverside Avenue and West Coast Highway. She commented that the encroachment of commercial business' in the area has an impact on the residential area. Commissioner Pers6n asked if the project at 2912 and 2930 West Coast Highway, as proposed, would be deleted and the subject project approved, what would be the difference in the number of trips on Avon Street? Mr. Webb explained that a retail office is 13 trips per 1,000 square feet which would be 300 trips. He said that with respect to the restaurant, based on 50 percent of the trips using Avon Street, instead of'S28 trips, there would be 260 trips. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Edwards, Mrs. Harrington indicated that she did not know how many Newport Heights neighbors have been using the restaurant. She said that Ruby's Restaurant is well-known and more residents will be walling and driving to-the facility. Chairman'Pomeroy explained that the TPO calculations consider all of the approved projects even if said projects have not been built, and the traffic count does not represent the traffic condition that would occur based solely on the subject use permit. W. Burnham stated that the TPO analyzes the traffic impact of a project as a .worse case possible based on the existing projects in addition to the committed projects that have not been built, resulting in an I.C.U., and added to the I.C.U. is project traffic. Commissioner Debay commented that approval would be based on the escrow closing and the additional parking provided, and the applicant's word that parking would be provided. W. Burnham stated that if the transaction is not consummated, the applicant would not be able to satisfy a condition and cannot complete the project. Mr. Burnham stated that the applicant is -18.

Mr. Burnham stated that typically Off-Site Parking Agreements are 5 years. Mr. Laycock stated that the property owner, Mr. Shokrian, confirmed that the property located at 2912 and 2930 West Coast Highway is in escrow and in the event the applicant does not purchase said property, the-applicant has a 5 year lease that would allow the applicant to do whatever he wants to with that property during the 5 years. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Debay, Mr: Laycock stated that the applicant would be required to apply for a sign permit. Mrs. Marian Rayl, 426 San Bernadino Avenue, appeared before the Planning Commission. Mrs. Rayl addressed her concerns with respect to the traffic circulation at Avon Street; the reduction in the traffic count on West Coast Highway; the 20 percent walk-in traffic; that there is every reason to believe that Ruby's Restaurant will be successful and there will be an increase in traffic on Avon Street; that Mariner's Center is a traffic hazard; that post office .employees park in the Newport Heights residential area; the number of businesses in Mariner's Center that have in-lieu parking; that the Municipal Parking Lot is not being used by the local businesses; that Newport Heights is being surveyed to see if the residents want to add traffic signs to their parking signs-to alleviate the business parking in the neighborhood; that the traffic from a future project located at 2912 and 2930 West Coast Highway will be circulating off of Avon Street in addition to the 30 parking spaces that are proposed in conjunction with the subject restaurant; that the lights from the subject dealership are disturbing the adjacent residents; that a traffic signal is•proposed at Mariner's Center; the applicants do not have a good track record inasmuch as they have violated conditions of the use permits; and the Planning Commission has discretionary powers to deny the project inasmuch as the proposal would not be good for the area. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover with respect to the 20 percent walk-in, Mr. Webb explained that staff looks at projects individually. He said that with respect'to the subject proposal, there is a chance that there will be walk-in traffic on-site as well as from the surrounding neighborhood. He stated that there is no way to determine'what the walk-in rate .19- ' �s3 COMMISSIONERS MINOTES' ,o September 7, 1989 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX question with respect to why automobiles are not proposed to ingress and egress from West Coast Highway, Mr. Webb explained that Newport Imports was proposed to ingress and egress off of Avon Street and West Coast Highway. He said that staff attempted to distribute traffic and there was a need to .eliminate left turns out of the dealership on West Coast Highway. Commissioner Glover commented that Avon Street is considered a residential street in Newport Heights and the restaurant traffic should be from West Coast Highway and should not encroach into the residential neighborhood. Mr. Webb explained that Avon Street is a service access road at the rear of the property for Newport Imports and the adjacent' properties. Commissioner Glover and Mr. Webb discussed the reasons for diverting West Coast Highway traffic to Avon Street. Mr. Webb commented that ingress and egress on West Coast Highway for the restaurant would lower the I.C.U. at Riverside Avenue because it would take trips off of Riverside Avenue. Mrs. Rayl commented that the median would be extended westward on West Coast Highway so it would be impossible to make a left turn into the restaurant. 'Mr. Webb confirmed that the median will be extended, and left turns are restricted out of Newport Imports by a previous condition. He said that the new driveway at 2912 West Coast Highway will be protected so no left turns can, be made into the driveway. However, left turns into the site from West Coast Highway can be made at the main entrance to the auto dealership. Mrs. Rayl and Mr. Webb discussed the traffic circulation on West Coast Highway at the subject site. Mrs. Rayl concluded that if everything does not go right with the subject project, then the TPO could be tipped by the project. Mr. Chris Hansen, 22 Encore Court, appeared before the Planning Commission. 'Mr. Hanson commented on the traffic congestion created by the, post office. In response to Mr. Hanson's concerns, Mr. Webb explained the circulation pattern at the post office until construction on Avon Street is completed. Mr. Hansen and Mr. Webb discussed the businesses that will be using Avon Street from Mariner's Center. There being no others desiring to•appear and be heard, the public hearing was closed at this time. Commissioner Edwards and Mr. Webb discussed the variable traffic counts on West Coast Highway and what the automobile -2Q- ( 5"T COMMISSIONERS , MINUTES September 7 1989 ,off p CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX Mr. Burnham requested an amendment to Condition No. 13 as approved by Mr. Dear and Mr. West. He stated that some of the problems created at•the subject location have not surfaced because it is not common knowledge that the restaurant is operating and open to the public. He said that to allow the restaurant to install signs upon approval of the subject application and then satisfy the wnditions of approval to the use permit could create problems. He proposed that Condition No. 13 of Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) be amended to state "that no signs shall be erected until permfttee has complied with Conditions No. 7, 14, 15, 20, and 21" He explained that said conditions are relevant to the parking and traffic and access concerns that the residents and Planning Commission have raised. Mr. Dear concurred that the conditions would be acceptable. Commissioner Di Sano stated that the Planning Commission's discretionary powers are limited to when the Planning Commission can make findings. Mr. Burnham concurred, and he added, when the facts are present to support the findings. Motion Motion was made to approve Traffic Study No. 58,. and Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended), subject to •the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A", including the foregoing Condition No. 13 as amended by Mr. Burnham, and added Finding No. 11 and Condition No. 32 as suggested by staff in the addendum to the staff report with respect to the applicant's use for off-site parking at property located at 2912 West Coast Highway. Commissioner Pers6n stated that in order for the Planning Commission to come up with findings to deny the application there has to be a factual basis, and he explained there are no facts to create findings for denial. Commissioner Pers6n stated that Mr. West agreed to the conditions of approval making the use permit contractual in nature, and said conditions are.expected to be abided by. He commented that he has a concern with respect to Condition No. 12 regarding the service of alcoholic beverages and that said condition may need to be modified at a future date if there are any further problems. Commissioner Pers6n stated that the entitlement to property located at 2912 West Coast Highway will be deleted and the entitlement to the existing China Palace Restaurant will be deleted, concluding that the subject project I' will have less impact than the foregoing establishments.

Commissioner Debay stated that she would not support the substitute motion because there is no way to make a left turn onto West Coast Highway from the establishment. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Edwards, Commissioner Pers6n explained that there is no evidence to not allow alcoholic beverages.

In response to a question posed by Commissioner Debay with respect to a change in the traffic counts in 1990, Mr. Burnham explained that .the Planning Commission has the power under the use permit to modify conditions of approval to address changes and circumstances.

In reference to the Traffic Engineer's responsibility, Mr. Burnham explained that, if the Traffic Engineer could be persuaded to decrease the amount of walk-in traffic for a particular establishment, it would have a great affect on the validity of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. In response to Commissioner Edwards' question with respect to revoking the application, Mr. Burnham explained that revocation has to be based on violations of the conditions of approval as opposed to change in circumstances. In response to Commissioner Edwards' question with respect to Condition No. 31 regarding the Planning Commission's rights to modify the use permit, Mr. Burnham stated that the intent of the condition is to put the applicant on notice that if there is a violation that the Planning Commission has the right to recommend revocation.

Traffic Study No. 58 Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) �ti� ( Newport Imports Restaurant Dear Chairman Pomeroy and Planning Commissioners, I would like to request that you do not approve Traffic Study No. 58, and that you deny Use Permit No. 3229 (Amended) . The traffic study appears to be flawed because: 1. The initial traffic counts for the study may be too low, showing less traffic on Coast Highway than last year. This is probably an artifact due to the construction activity on Coast Highway this past year at Bayside Drive and vicinity, and in Matiner's Mile, temporarily lowering traffic counts at,Riverside and PCH. The traffic study should be re-done using more realistic traffic counts. In general, traffic has been increasing on PCH at approximately 8% a year. 2. The study assumes a 20% reduction in traffic generated by the project because of walk-in customers, such as employees of the car dealership. However, the restaurant is supposed to be a "converted" employee cafeteria, distinct from the dealership, and the study shows 3,300 square feet subtracted from the dealership because of the restaurant. If employees are going to use the restaurant .as a cafeteria after all, then the traffic study should include the entire dealership plus restaurant. The study should be re-done without the 20% allowance, since this estimate is designed to avoid tipping the TPO. 3. The traffic study assumes that 2% of the traffic coming westbound on Coast Highway will make a complicated series of turns to reach the restaurant from the rear rather than going through Riverside And PCH to reach the restaurant from the front. A car supposedly will turn up Tustin Ave. from PCH, then turn left on the west leg of Avon Street, then turn right on Riverside Ave. , then turn left on the east leg of Avon Street, then turn left into the restaurant. (see p. 74 of the staff report) . In reality, rather than these contortions, a car will simply pass through the Riverside intersection at PCH and make a simple turn right into the restaurant.shortly after the Riverside intersection. Similarly, westbound cars are not likely to turn up Riverside at PCH, then turn left onto Avon, then turn left into the restaurant, when the cars can simply pass straight through Riverside and make a single right turn into the restaurant. Again, the apparent reason for these traffic contortions seem to be to avoid tipping the TPO. The study should be re-done without these detours to reflect more accurate traffic patterns. 4. The study assumes a reduction in car dealership traffic because 3,300 square feet of dealership will be subtracted (see p. 93) . This is a sham. Not one square foot of car dealership will be removed. Not one block of concrete will be removed. The traffic to and from the- dea-lership will remain the same, because the restaurant was built into the dealership from the beginning, falsely claiming to be an employee snack bar. The study should not be allowed to remove 3,300 square feet of I� JHI1 LJ. VMIILJr_n-2L.VV 1 , IVI.W.

The lights have never been turned off at 1OPM as per Condition 13•. I brought this matter to the attention of the Planning Director on June 14, 1989, and he wrote a letter to the applicant on June 21 (see enclosed copies) pointing out non-compliance with this condition. Despite this correspondence, no action has been taken by the applicant to turn off the lights. Instead, he is now before you asking you to legalize his non- compliance with Condition 13. Since the current all-night lighting throws glare half-way up the view park on the west side of Cliff Drive Park and negatively impacts wildlife values in the wetlands at the base of the park, I request that Condition 13 as originally required be cor4ied with, or that the lights be directed downwards so as not to impact the view park or the wetlands. In this respect Finding No. 7, page 11 should be confirmed by adding language to condition No. 30 to protect the view park and wetlands. Linkage with the Shokrian project should be further examined. Does Mr. West now own the property? If not, this permit request should be delayed until he in fact owns it. In the hearings before the City last year concerning the Shokrian project, staff repeatedly pointed out the inadvisability of having curb cuts so close to the Riverside intersection for safety reasons, but now curb cuts are being approved without even discussing the matter. Is the Shokrian property now reduced in entitlement due to the parking assigned to the restaurant or is this development in addition to the other? The plans for the Shokrian project should be considered at the same time as this project because the same Land space is involved. As private citizens, we have a right to expect that government and business will act in good faith, and that proper procedures, permits, and conditions for approval of development will be followed. We lose respect for government when we see someone flouting the laws of Newport Beach and getting away with it, cooking the traffic studies, deceiving you by calling a restaurant an "employee's cafeteria", and not obeying conditions for approval even when asked to do so by the City. You have the discretionary powers to deny this amended permit application and to require a realistic and proper traffic study, and I hope you will do so. Thank you. Sincerely, �, Gd Jan D.

You should know that City staff did not appreciate the "in your face" decision of . Mr. West to operate a restaurant without- a use permit. However, we try to evaluate all projects . without regard to personal feelings about the applicant. Before we talk about the project '. itself, I - should explain why this office did not try to obtain a court order enjoining operation of the restaurant after we filed the lawsuit. First, to obtain a Rreliminary injunction, the City must establish two things. We must prove the City is likely to prevail (no problem) and that continued operation would hurt the City more than a preliminary injunction would hurt the defendant (the problem) . The City did not have a strong argument that continued operation of the Jaguar Diner, without public advertising, hurt the City or its citizens. Moreover, our experience with this type of case suggests that courts are extremely reluctant to tell people to stop operating a business, even when operating illegally, if there is a solution other than a court order. For example, in the early 801s, the court did not grant an injunction against the late night operation at A. T. Leo's in spite of numerous declarations about noise, trash, traffic, and public urination. When we filed the lawsuit, the traffic consultant for Mr. West had already talked with our Traffic Engineer about a new traffic study and we were aware that traffic counts on PCH were lower such that the project might pass the Traffic Phasing Ordinance decisions doP suggest lthe possibility, of recent orange legal chall r Court enge to the L 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach 7/ Ms. Gail Demmer Mrs. Janine Gault Mrs. Marian Rayl Jan Vandersloot, M.D. September 19, 1989 Page 2 TPO and the Jaguar Diner project (,small traffic impact-extremely expensive roadway improvements) represents fertile ground for such a challenge. The City's Traffic Engineer determined that a 20% "trip reduction credit" was appropriate. The credit for walk-in traffic is appropriate because the restaurant is surrounded •by an auto dealership employing many people and in an area where many people walk to lunch. Most Orange County cities make adjustments for mixed• use projects. Newport Beach has given trip reduction credits up to So% for certain developments and the Shokrian Project was assigned a 15&- credit based on all commercial and retail space. Newport Heights residents also questioned the trip .distribution scenario and trip generation rates developed by the Traffic Engineer. The City uses trip generation rates specified in the Institute of Traffic Engineers Manual. The rate selected for the Jaguar 'Diner,' is equivalent to a high turnover restaurant like Denny's. The City cannot legally vary trip generation rates for any land use based upon • suspicions the enterprise may be successful and/or profitable. The trip distribution scenario "assumed a total of 5% of the westbound PCH trips with a restaurant destination would proceed up Riverside or Tustin and enter the restaurant from the rear. This is essentially the same trip distribution used for the restaurant on prior occasions and no ICU's change if all restaurant patrons enter off of PCH. Newport Heights residents expressed a concern that the project may create the need for a traffic signal at Avon and Riverside. The Planning Commission required Mr. West to agree to pay 25t of the cost of an Avon/Riverside signal if warrants were met. This is the same condition that was imposed upon the Shokrian Project which would be invalidated by approval of the Jaguar Diner Use Permit. Public Works and Traffic Engineering. staff do not believe the additional traffic on Avon will warrant installation of the signal unless an accident picture or other unforeseen circumstances develop. Approval of the Jaguar Diner project will not increase the likelihood of extending Avon through to Santa Ana. Ms. Gail Demmer Mrs. Janine Gault Mrs. Marian Rayl Jan Vandersloot, M.D. September 190 1989 Page 3 While the Jaguar Diner is a small project, the issues raised by the application and the illegal restaurant operation 'are complex.

The project is proposed to provide ' approximately 80 seats and operate between 7 AM and 9 PM. The restaurant is to be located inside the Newport Jaguar Auto Deal- ership building, and is proposed to take access from one driveway each on Coast Highway and Avon Street. The project vicinity is shown on Figure 1 . Basmaciyan-Darnell , Inc . (BDI ) has been retained to prepare a traffic impact study addressing the traf- fic-related impacts of the project. This study is intended to ' satisfy the requirements of the City of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) . ' EXISTING CONDITIONS The project site is located in the southwest portion of the City of Newport Beach. Regional access to the area is provided by Coast Highway (State Route 1) and Newport Boulevard (State Route 55 ) . Local access is provided by Coast Highway. The project ' site is currently occupied by Newport Jaguar Auto Dealership. Land uses in the vicinity of the project include commercial office space, restaurants, and marine-related uses. ' Roadway Characteristics Coast Highway ( State Route 11 extends from Northern California southerly along the coast to San Clemente, where it becomes E1 Camino Real. In the vicinity of the project, Coast Highway is a four-lane divided primary arterial with a center turn lane and ' left-turn pockets at intersections. The Newport Imports exit on Coast Highway is posted with signs restricting left turns out. Left turns into the site are allowed from Coast Highway. ' Riverside Avenue extends north from Coast Highway to 15th Street. Between Coast Highway and Avon Street , Riverside Avenue is a four-lane undivided roadway, narrowing to a two-lane undivided roadway north of Avon Street. Avon Street is a two-lane local roadway extending west from Riverside Avenue to the project and also extending east to Tustin Avenue. -1- Jo 0� a�`'¢pP� DP PJe t PP P� HOSPITAL AD a1P ' SP ' PROJECT pNEP51DE DR SITE ' --- AVDN• J*, dP �Q Op THW Y ' `m7 CNANhF< m / ` t/Op jSLe m�rmHpH ``o \ cHgNNE` A �� ' 0� �9 2 \ FIGURE 1 ' BASMACIYAN•DARNELL, INC. VICINITY MAP -2- tPeak Hour Traffic Volumes and Intersection capacity ' Five intersections in the vicinity of the project have been identified by the City Traffic Engineer as requiring impact analysis. The five intersections are: o Newport Boulevard and Hospital Road o Newport Boulevard and Via Lido o Pacific Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue ' o Pacific Coast Highway and Tustin Avenue o Pacific Coast Highway and Dover Drive/Bayshore Drive ' Figure 2 presents the AM/PM turning movements at each of the critical intersections. Each of the intersections are currently signalized, and have been analyzed by the City to determine the ' existing operating conditions, using the Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) methodology for signalized intersections. The results of the intersection analyses are shown in Table 1 . Review of Table 1 shows that all intersections analyzed are ' operating at Level of Service "C" or better. Copies of the ICU Worksheets are contained in Appendix A to this report. ' PROJECT-RELATED TRAFFIC Trip Generation Tripmaking levels for the proposed project have been estimated, using trip generation rates published in the Institute of Trans- portation Engineers Trip Generation Manual and approved by the City of Newport Beach. When calculating the anticipated trip generation levels from the proposed project, it is assumed that a ' portion of the restaurant clientele will be comprised of the employees and patrons of the Newport Jaguar Dealership, and pedestrian traffic from surrounding retail uses along Coast Highway. Therefore, a 20% reduction in vehicle trips has been ' taken to account for this non-vehicle traffic. Trip generation rates and resulting trip generation for the proposed 3,300 square feet of restaurant use are summarized on Table 2. ' Review of Table 2 shows that the project is anticipated to generate 528 vehicles trips per day, with 50 in the morning peak hour, and 53 in the evening peak hour. The City's TPO analysis process also requires analysis of the 2-1/2 hour peak period for both the morning and the evening periods. Generally, the 2-1/2 hour peak period trip generation equals two times the peak hour ' volumes. These 2-1/2 hour peak period volumes are also summa- rized on Table 2.

The projected distribution of ' project traffic is shown on Figure 3 and is generally as follows: o South on Coast Highway 30% o North on Coast Highway 30% o East (Inland•) of Coast Hwy 30% o West of Coast Highway 10% When the assumed distribution characteristics of project traffic are applied to the project-related trips, the resulting assign- ment of peak hour traffic and peak hour volumes at intersections ' are shown on Figure 4. ' IMPACT ANALYSIS The City of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance requires project traffic impacts to be analyzed for both morning and evening peak conditions at critical intersections within the City as identified by the City ' s Traffic Engineer. The .City Traffic Engineer has identified five (5 ) critical intersections . The ' five' (5) intersections were previously identified in the existing conditions section of this report. The process involves the evaluation of traffic conditions one year after opening of the project. For purposes of this analysis, the year 1990 was uti- lized for the impact analysis . The analysis process includes regional traffic growth, approved projects traffic and project- related traffic. tThe evaluation process starts with the peak 2-1/2 hour intersec- tion analysis . This analysis utilizes the cumulative traffic ' morning and evening peak 2-1/2 hour analyses to determine if the project ' s peak 2-1/2 hour volume exceeds 1% of the cumulative peak period volume for any of the approaches to the critical intersection. If the project volume exceeds one percent (1%) , ' Intersection Capacity Utilization ( ICU) analyses are performed. If the ICU analysis identifies that the project causes the ICU to exceed 0.90 or makes worse an ICU value greater than 0.90, addi- tional analysis is required to develop specific mitigation meas- ures . The following sections discuss Regional Growth, Approved Projects , One Percent (1%) Analysis , and Intersection Capacity ' Utilization Analysis. Regional Growth ' The City has developed estimates of annual growth rates along major arterials within the City. These growth rates represent increases in traffic from growth and development in the surround- ing areas. Within these study area of the project the following growth rates were used: ' -7- �V �e 13% d rr ' 110SPITALPD i% 1%• r4r 6r 15% PROJECT PIVEPSIDE OP SITE 10 •1 �a / 0 1` A L,^ rNWY 36% 4% 30% 41aO egrs 1% I I ` O o ry ONT ••\ 9 A \ cN^IV ' 0 LEGEND 0� y2 XX%=TRIP DISTRIBUTION _ PERCENTAGE ' \ FIGURE 3 ' PROJECT*—RELATED ©ASMACIYAN•DARNELL, INC.INc.

The resulting volumes are included in the one percent (1% ) analysis and ICU ' worksheets contained in Appendix B. Approved Projects ' The City of Newport Beach Traffic Engineer provides cumulative traffic volumes for each of the critical intersections . These ' cumulative volumes include traffic from all approved projects that are not yet constructed and 100% occupied. Table 3 lists the approved projects that are included for the cumulative analy- sis. The approved projects volumes were adjusted to reflect the loss of 3,300 square feet of auto dealership with the approval of the restaurant use . A diagram documenting this reduction in approved project trips is provided in Appendix B. One Percent Analysis The project's morning and evening peak 2-1/2 hour volumes were assigned to each of the five ( 5 ) critical intersections and compared to the cumulative 1990 volume to determine if the project's volume would exceed one percent (It) of the existing, regional growth and approved projects traffic at any of the approaches to each critical intersection. Table 4 summarizes the results of these analyses . Review of Table 4 identifies the ' Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue intersection as the only intersection where project peak 2-1/2 hour volume exceeds 1% of cumulative volumes . A copy of the one percent analysis work- sheets are contained in Appendix C. ' Intersection Capacity Analysis The next step in the analysis process involves ICU analyses at each of the critical intersections that project ,peak 2-1/2 hour traffic exceeds 1%. Based on the analyses performed, only the t intersection of Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue needs to have ICU analyses performed. The analysis requires that ICU's be performed for existing condi- tions, 1990 Base conditions (Existing plus regional growth plus approved projects) and 1990 Base Conditions plus project. The results of these analyses are presented in Table 5. Review of ' Table 5 shows that the Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue inter- section is presently operating with an AM ICU = 0.77 and a PM ICU = 0 .77 . For 1990 Base Conditions the AM ICU = 0.90 and the PM = ' 0.90.

Both ' the AM and PM ICU's remain at 0.90. In summary it can be concluded that the proposed Newport Imports Restaurant project satisfies the requirements of the City of Newport Traffic Phasing Ordinance wherein the project traffic ' does not exceed 1% of peak 2-1/2 hour traffic and/or the project does not cause a critical intersection AM or PM ICU to exceed 0.90 or make the ICU worse. ' SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS o The proposed project is to consist of opening an existing 3,300 square feet of restaurant space approved for use for employees to serve patrons and provide full service restau- rant operations : o The restaurant use is estimated to generate 528 daily vehi- cle trips. In the AM peak there will be 28 vehicles enter- ing the project site and 22 vehicles exiting the site. The PM peak is expected to have 28 vehicles entering and 25 vehicles exiting the project site. ' o One percent (1%) analyses was performed for five (5) criti- cal intersections in the vicinity of the project, as identi- fied by -the City 's Traffic Engineer . Project Peak 2-1/2 Hour traffic is estimated to exceed 1% at Coast Highway and Riverside Avenue. At all other intersections the project peak 2-1/2 hour traffic is less than 1% of Base 1990 traffic ' volumes. o For Coast Highway at Riverside Avenue the ICU analyses found that for Base 1990 conditions the AM and PM peak hour ICU's equal 0.90 and the addition of project traffic does not make the ICU worse. With project traffic added to Base 1990 Conditions the AM and PM ICU's both equal 0.90. o The project has been evaluated for conformance to the City of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) require- ments and was found to satisfy those requirements. 1 ' -14- i i 1 1 APPENDIX A ' ICU WORKSHEETS - EXISTING CONDITIONS r tNE2480AN INTERSECTION CAPACITY UTILIZATION ANALYSIS INTERSECTION: NEWPORT BOULEVARD & HOSPITAL ROAD 2480 EXIST TRAFFIC VOLUMES BASED ON AVERAGE DAILY TRAFFIC WINTER/SPRING 1989 AM .............."-....._.............--..._._...._._......_........._.........................
