DISCUSSION
Land Use and Development Standards
x The subject property is located in the R-1 (Single-Unit Residential) Coastal Zoning
District, which provides for detached single-unit residential development and is
consistent with the City’s Coastal Land Use Plan, General Plan, and Zoning Code. A
coastal development permit is required, and the property is not eligible for a waiver
for de minimis development because the property is located in the Coastal
Commission Appeal Area.
x The project site is currently developed with a single-family residence. The
neighborhood is predominantly developed with two-story, single-family residences.
A third level may be allowed subject to certain development standards. The
proposed design, bulk, and scale of the development is consistent with the existing
neighborhood pattern of development and expected future development consistent
with applicable development standards.
x The proposed project will conform to all applicable development standards, including
floor area limit, setbacks, and height, as evidenced by the project plans and illustrated
in Table 1 below.

Hazards
x The property fronts the Newport Bay and is a private waterfront parcel. A Coastal
Hazards Analysis Report was prepared for the project by PMA Consulting, Inc., dated
October 18, 2019. The current maximum bay water elevation is 7.7 feet North
American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). According to the report, the estimated
sea level rise at the site is between 2.8 and 4.95 feet over the next 75 years utilizing
different probabilistic scenarios, accounting for the bay water level rising to
between 10.5 and 12.65 feet NAVD 88. The Newport Beach City Council has
approved the use of the high estimate of the “low risk aversion” scenario, which is
2
Moore Residence (PA2019-230)
Zoning Administrator, January 16, 2020
Page 3
3.2 feet by the year 2100, or 2.9 feet by 2094. Therefore, the sea level is estimated
to likely reach approximately 10.6 feet NAVD 88 over the next 75 years (i.e. the
life of the structure).The report also identifies that there is a 0.5 percent chance
(“medium-high risk aversion” scenario) that sea level rise (SLR) would be greater
than 2.9 feet around the year 2070 and could be as high as 13.1 feet NAVD 88 by
the year 2100. If future SLR is greater than the likely estimate of the “low risk
aversion” scenario by 2094 (10.6 feet NAVD 88), then the bulkhead can be raised
without further bayward encroachment. Future raising of the bulkhead height would
require a separate local coastal development permit (CDP).
x The project site is protected by an existing bulkhead that will be repaired and
maintained at its current height of 11.54 feet NAVD 88, which can be raised to protect
the property if needed in the future. The finished floor elevation of the first floor of the
proposed living area is 12.98 feet NAVD 88, which exceeds the minimum 9.0-foot
NAVD 88 elevation standard for new structures and exceeds the minimum
requirements for sea level rise (10.6 feet NAVD 88) for the anticipated 75-year life of
the structure.
x Pursuant to Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC) Section 21.30.030(C)(3)(i)(iv),
the property owner will be required to enter into an agreement with the City waiving
any potential right to protection to address situations in the future in which the
development is threatened with damage or destruction by coastal hazards (e.g.,
waves, erosion, and sea level rise). The property owner will also be required to
acknowledge any hazards present at the site and unconditionally waive any claim to
damage or liability against the decision authority, consistent with NBMC Section
21.30.015(D)(3)(c). Both requirements are included as conditions of approval that will
need to be satisfied prior to the issuance of building permits for construction.
x The property is located in an area known for the potential for seismic activity and
liquefaction. All projects are required to comply with the California Building Code
(CBC) and Building Division standards and policies. Geotechnical investigations
specifically addressing liquefaction are required to be reviewed and approved prior
to the issuance of a building permit. Permit issuance is also contingent on the
inclusion of design mitigation identified in the investigations. Construction plans are
reviewed for compliance with approved investigations and CBC prior to building
permit issuance.
Water Quality
x The property is adjacent to Newport Bay. Pursuant to Section 21.35.030
(Construction Pollution Prevention Plan) of the Municipal Code, a Construction
Pollution Prevention Plan (CPPP) is required to implement temporary Best
Management Practices (BMPs) during construction to minimize erosion and
sedimentation and to minimize pollution of runoff and coastal waters derived from
3
Moore Residence (PA2019-230)
Zoning Administrator, January 16, 2020
Page 4
construction chemicals and materials. A CPPP has been provided and construction
plans and activities will be required to adhere to the CPPP.
x Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 21.35.050 (Water Quality and Hydrology Plan),
due to the proximity of the development to the shoreline and the development
containing more than 75 percent of impervious surface area, a Water Quality and
Hydrology Plan (WQHP) is required. A preliminary WQHP has been prepared for the
project by Forkert Engineering & Surveying, Inc., dated November 1, 2019. The
WQHP includes a polluted runoff and hydrologic site characterization, a sizing
standard for BMPs, use of a Low Impact Development (LID) approach to retain the
design storm runoff volume on site, and documentation of the expected effectiveness
of the proposed BMPs.
x The project design addresses water quality with a construction erosion control plan
and a post-construction drainage system that includes drainage and percolation
features designed to retain dry weather runoff and minor rain event runoff on-site.
Any water not retained on-site is directed to the City’s storm drain system.
Public Access
x The project site is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline;
however, the project will not affect the public’s ability to gain access to use and/or
view the coast and nearby recreational facilities. The existing residential development
neither provides nor inhibits public coastal access. Implementation Plan Section
21.30A.040 (Determination of Public Access/Recreation Impacts) requires that the
provision of public access bear a reasonable relationship between the requirement
and the project’s impact and be proportional to the impact. In this case, the project
replaces an existing single-family residence with a new single-family residence.
Therefore, the project does not involve a change in land use, density or intensity that
will result in increased demand on public access and recreation opportunities.
x The project is designed and sited so as not block or impede existing public access
opportunities and occurs within the confines of private property. Existing coastal
access conditions will not be affected by the project. Coastal access is currently
provided and will continue to be provided by street ends throughout the neighborhood
with access to the beach and water.
x The project site is not located adjacent to a coastal view road or coastal viewpoint
identified by Local Coastal Program maps. The project site may be located within
the viewshed of distant public viewing areas; however, the project will replace an
existing single-family residence with a new single-family residence that complies
with all applicable Local Coastal Program (LCP) development standards. It will also
maintain a building envelope consistent with the existing and anticipated
neighborhood pattern of development. Therefore, the project does not have the
4

potential to degrade the visual quality of the Coastal Zone or result in significant
adverse impacts to public views.

state scenic highway, is not a hazardous waste site, and is not identified as a historical
resource.
SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
In accordance with Section 21.52.015 (Coastal Development Permits) of the Newport Beach
Municipal Code, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
A. Conforms to all applicable sections of the certified Local Coastal Program.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The proposed structure conforms to all applicable development standards including, but
not limited to, floor area limitation, setbacks, height, and parking:
a. The maximum floor area limitation is 6,764 square feet and the proposed gross
floor area is 5,229 square feet.
b. The proposed development will provide the required setbacks, which are 4 feet
along the front property line abutting the street, 10 feet along the bayfront property
line, and 4 feet along the side property lines.
c. The highest guardrail or flat roof is no more than 24 feet, measured from
established grade at every point as required by Zoning Code Section
20.30.050(B)(3) and the highest ridge is no more than 29 feet from established
grade, which complies with the maximum height limitation.
d. The project includes enclosed garage parking for three vehicles, which complies
with the minimum three-space parking requirement for single-family residences
having more than 4,000 square feet of livable floor area.
2. The proposed design, bulk, and scale of the development is consistent with the existing
neighborhood’s pattern of development and expected future development consistent with
applicable development standards as the neighborhood is predominantly developed with
two-story, single-family residences.
3. A Coastal Hazards Analysis Report was prepared for the project by PMA Consulting, Inc.,
dated October 18, 2019. The current maximum bay water elevation is 7.7 feet North
American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). According to the report, the estimated sea
level rise at the site is between 2.8 and 4.95 feet over the next 75 years utilizing different
probabilistic scenarios, accounting for the bay water level rising to between 10.5 to 12.65
feet NAVD 88. The Newport Beach City Council has approved the use of the high estimate
of the “low risk aversion” scenario, which is 3.2 feet by the year 2100, or 2.9 feet by 2094.
Therefore, the sea level is estimated to likely reach approximately 10.6 feet NAVD 88 over
the next 75 years (i.e. the life of the structure).The report also identifies that there is a 0.5
percent chance (“medium-high risk aversion” scenario) that sea level rise (SLR) would be
9
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2020-###
Page 3 of 9
greater than 2.9 feet around the year 2070 and the bay water level could be as high as 13.7
feet NAVD 88 by the year 2094. If future SLR is greater than the likely estimate of the “low
risk aversion” scenario by 2094 (10.6 feet NAVD 88), then the bulkhead can be raised
without further bayward encroachment. Future raising of the bulkhead height would require
a separate local coastal development permit (CDP).
4. The project site is protected by an existing bulkhead that will be repaired and maintained at
its current height of 11.54 feet NAVD 88, which can be raised to protect the property if
needed in the future. The finished floor elevation of the first floor of the proposed living area
is 12.98 feet NAVD 88, which exceeds the minimum 9.0-foot NAVD 88 elevation standard
for new structures and exceeds the minimum requirements for sea level rise (10.6 feet
NAVD 88) for the anticipated 75-year life of the structure.
5. Pursuant to Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC) Section 21.30.030(C)(3)(i)(iv), the
property owner will be required to enter into an agreement with the City waiving any potential
right to protection to address situations in the future in which the development is threatened
with damage or destruction by coastal hazards (e.g., waves, erosion, and sea level rise).
The property owner will also be required to acknowledge any hazards present at the site
and unconditionally waive any claim to damage or liability against the decision authority,
consistent with NBMC Section 21.30.015(D)(3)(c). Both requirements are included as
conditions of approval that will need to be satisfied prior to the issuance of building permits
for construction.
6. The property is located in an area known for the potential of seismic activity and liquefaction.
All projects are required to comply with the California Building Code (CBC) and Building
Division standards and policies. Geotechnical investigations specifically addressing
liquefaction are required to be reviewed and approved prior to the issuance of building
permits. Permit issuance is also contingent on the inclusion of design mitigation identified in
the investigations. Construction plans are reviewed for compliance with approved
investigations and the CBC prior to building permit issuance.
7. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 21.35.050 (Water Quality and Hydrology Plan), due to
the proximity of the development to the shoreline and the development containing more than
75 percent of impervious surface area, a Water Quality and Hydrology Plan (WQHP) is
required. A preliminary WQHP has been prepared for the project by Forkert Engineering &
Surveying, Inc., dated November 1, 2019. The WQHP includes a polluted runoff and
hydrologic site characterization, a sizing standard for BMPs, use of a Low Impact
Development (LID) approach to retain the design storm runoff volume on site, and
documentation of the expected effectiveness of the proposed BMPs.
8. The project design addresses water quality with a Construction Pollution Prevention Plan
(CPPP) that includes temporary best management practices (BMPs) to be implemented
during construction to minimize erosion and sedimentation, and to minimize pollution of
runoff derived by construction chemicals and materials. No water quality impacts to coastal
waters are anticipated based upon the location and elevation of the property.
9. New landscaping will be verified for compliance with NBMC Section 21.30.075
(Landscaping). A condition of approval is included that requires drought-tolerant and
10
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2020-###
Page 4 of 9
prohibits invasive species. Prior to issuance of the building permits, the final landscape plans
will be reviewed to verify invasive species are not planted.
10. The property is not located near coastal view roads and is not located near any identified
public viewpoints; therefore, the project will not negatively impact public coastal views.
Finding:
B. Conforms to the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal
Act if the project is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline of any
body of water located within the coastal zone.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The project site is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline;
however, the project will not affect the public’s ability to gain access to use and/or view the
coast and nearby recreational facilities. The proposed residential development neither
provides nor inhibits public coastal access. Implementation Plan Section 21.30A.040
(Determination of Public Access/Recreation Impacts) requires that the provision of public
access bear a reasonable relationship between the requirement and the project’s impact
and be proportional to the impact. In this case, the project includes the replacement of an
existing single-family residence with a new single-family residence. The project does not
involve a change in land use, density or intensity that will result in increased demand on
public access and recreation opportunities.
2. The project is designed and sited so as not to block or impede existing public access
opportunities and occurs within the confines of private property. Existing coastal access
conditions will not be affected by the proposed development. Coastal access is currently
provided and will continue to be provided by street ends throughout the neighborhood with
access to the beach and water.
SECTION 4. DECISION.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1. The Zoning Administrator of the City of Newport Beach hereby finds this Project is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to
Section 15303 under Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the

1. The amount of expected sea level rise cited from the Coastal Hazards Analysis
Report referred to in Fact A.3 on handwritten page 9 ("between 2.8 and 4.95 feet") is
different from that cited in connection with the previous agenda item ("between 3.2
and 5.1 feet"). It is not clear to me if this is due to the difference in site (bay vs. ocean-
facing) or to a difference in expert opinions or to one report being more current than
the other.
2. Although the public trust lands of Newport Harbor may not be officially designated
as a "public view area," it seems odd to suggest a property directly facing a harbor
heavily visited by the California public "is not located near any identified public
viewpoints" (Fact A.10, handwritten page 11).
3. The "East Elevation" on handwritten page 25 shows what looks like a substantial
amount of glass facing the water. It would be good to add a condition of approval
requiring the glass to be treated to minimize bird strikes.
4. Although apparently not the subject of the present hearing, this property connects
to a substantial amount of private development over the adjacent public trust lands
(see handwritten page 31). This includes floats which appear intended more as an
extension of the yard and living space than to serve any clear boating-related
function. In my view, they unnecessarily reduce public access.
