PROJECT SUMMARY
The Residences at 4400 Von Karman Project includes 312 apartment units atop a 825-
space parking structure, a separate 284-space, free-standing parking structure, an
approximately one-acre public park, and reconfiguration of existing surface parking lots
serving existing office buildings. The project would be within the Koll Center Newport
Professional and Business Office Site B, generally located between Von Karman Avenue
and Birch Street in the vicinity of John Wayne Airport.
Implementation of the proposed project would require the demolition of existing surface
parking and landscape areas within the approximately 13-acre project site. All project
residential parking would be provided onsite and within the parking garage under the
residential structure. Office parking removed to accommodate the project would be
provided within the free-standing parking structure, the garage structure under the
residential structure, and the nearby reconfigured surface parking areas. Pedestrian
walkways and enhanced landscaping would be provided to connect the proposed project
with the existing office park and the abutting Uptown Newport mixed -use project presently
under construction.

INTRODUCTION
Project Setting
The subject property is located within a portion of Professional and Business Office Site
B (Office Site B) of the Koll Center Newport Business Park, and approximately 13 acres
in size. It is an irregularly shaped property generally bordered by Birch Street to the
northeast, Von Karman Avenue to the west, and existing office uses and associated
surface parking lots and parking structures to the east an d south. The two-story office
building located at 4490 Von Karman Avenue, the four-story office building located 4910
11

Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 7
Birch Street and the three-story 4440 Von Karman Avenue office building, located within
the project boundaries, are not a part of the project. The project site wraps around, and
does not include, an existing 11-story office building at 5000 Birch Street.
The subject property is currently improved with common surface parking lots and
landscape areas that serve existing office uses within Koll Center Newport. Existing
parking areas are controlled. Northwest of the site are a mix of office use and hotels.
Northeast of the site is a mix of office, commercial and food uses, and the Harbor Justice
Center. East of the site is the Uptown Newport Planned Community that includes
industrial use, residential use and parks. It is anticipated that the industrial use within the
Uptown Newport Planned Community will be replaced by residential use in the next ten
years. South of the site are office uses. West of the site are office uses and the Pacific
Club.
Background (Previous Application)
In January 2019, the Planning Commission conducted a study session to review the
proposed development of a 260-unit condominium project with 3,000 square feet of retail

Project Components:
Residential Development
The proposed rectangular-shaped, multiple-unit residential building is designed as a
“podium style” structure that consists of four stories over one level of on-grade parking
and two levels of below grade parking. The base building height would be 65 feet, with
architectural elements, parapet, rooftop mechanical equipment, elevator shafts,
emergency staircase to reach an overall building height of 71 feet.
The 312 rental units include 55 studio units, 149 one-bedroom units, and 108 two-
bedroom units. The studios would range in size from 515 square feet to 628 square feet.
The one-bedroom units would range from 665 square feet to 1,025 square feet. The two-
bedroom units would range from 1,000 square feet to 1,413 square feet.
Of the 312 rental units, five percent or 13 units will be affordable and restricted to very
low-income households and the remaining 299 units will be market-rate rentals. The
proposed unit mix for the affordable units is 3 studio units, 9 one-bedroom units, and 1
13
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 9
two-bedroom unit. The affordable units will consist of the same size and amenities as the
market-rate units, and will be distributed throughout the project.
The proposed residential building is designed with a contemporary architectural style, yet
intended to be reflective of the surrounding office setting, according to the applicant. The
building’s corners are the featured project massing and will be clad in warm colored stone
veneer. Internal accents of cementitious siding in dark grays and blues to provide
articulation to the main building façade and accent ed with the cool colors of exterior
plaster base. At the upper level balconies and amenity entrances, awnings are used to
provide articulation and visual interest to the façades. Lastly, the main vehicular
entrances utilize stone veneer wayfinding elements to identify project entry points.
Vehicular Access
There are five driveways that currently provide vehicular access to the project site.
(Please see Construction Phasing below for the driveway locations). Three existing
driveways are located on Birch Street; and two driveways are located on Von Karman
Avenue. These existing driveways will be maintained and will continue to provide access
to existing uses within Office Site B, including the proposed development. The
southernmost driveway on Von Karman will be opened to the public creating an internal
street to access the proposed project. The new internal street will continue to access
Birch Street at two driveways. The existing and modified surface parking lots wil l remain
controlled and will be accessed by existing driveways and from the internal street.
Residential and Office Parking Garage
The new residential and office parking garage in and below the proposed residential
building has a total of 835 parking spaces. It will contain a total of 825 parking spaces for
residential and office uses, and 10 parallel guest parking spaces located along the internal
street. A total of 559 parking spaces will be provided for residents and their guests. In
addition to residential parking, the gated parking structure contains 276 spaces for office
users. All residential parking will be provided on Basement levels 1 and 2, with guest
parking located on Level 1 and along the front of building. Office parking will be provided
on Level 1 (Podium) and Basement level 1.
Vehicular access into the residential parking garage for office tenants will be provided at
the main entrance’s driveway, off of the internal street, and the back-building’s entry
driveway, near Birch Street. Vehicular access for residents and their guests will be
provided at the main and side entrances’ driveways, off of the “internal” street.
Freestanding Parking Garage and Surface Parking Lots
A 284-space free-standing parking structure is proposed to be located at the southeast
corner of the project site, southeast of the 5000 Birch Street parking structure. The office-
only parking structure is approximately 40 feet in height and has four parking levels,
14
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 10
inclusive of the roof deck parking level. Vehicular access to this parking structure would
be available on the west side of the structure, from Driveways 2, 3, and 5. The structure
replaces surface parking removed due to the construction of the residential building and
the parking structure itself.
Project Amenities
The proposed project includes a variety of private on-site recreational and amenities for
future residents and their guests including:
• A bike shop/storage on Level 1-Ground Floor with access to exterior common open
space and the public park;
• Dog wash room on Level 1-Ground Floor with direct exterior access to common
open spaces and the public park;
• Pool/spa courtyard, garden courtyard, a clubroom and a fitness center on Level 2-
Podium Floor
• A roof terrace with outdoor kitchen and dining areas, a game lawn, and fireside
lounge area on Level 5; and
• Juliette and private Balconies on Levels 1-5 (not all units will have balconies)
In addition to the private amenities above, the residents and their guests also have access
to all open spaces, walking paths and the one-acre public park.
Public Park and Open Spaces
The proposed project includes an approximately one-acre park to be located between the
new residential structure and adjacent office buildings. The proposed park will be
improved and maintained by the applicant, dedicated to the City, and accessible to the
residents and public. The park would be programmed with a mix of active and passive
uses which may include a dog park, multi-purpose lawn for recreation, bocce court and
shade pavilion, lounge areas with seating, and outdoor tables for group gatherings. New
landscaping with a variety of groundcover, trees, shrubs, and succulents will be provided
throughout the project site. Additionally, a walking trail connecting the residential building
to the neighboring buildings and the park will be provided.
Pedestrian Connections
The applicant proposes three pedestrian connections to the Uptown Newport Planned
Community project located to the east of the project site. They are shown as Connections
1, 2 and 3 below. These connections will be located within the existing Office Site B
parking lots and will include pedestrian walkways with landscaping, pavers, and could
accommodate seating.

Phase 1: Freestanding Parking Structure
Phase 1 includes the demolition of approximately 106 surface parking spaces and
landscaping from the existing 1,643 surface parking spaces within the 13-acre project
area; and the construction of the 284-space parking structure at the southeast corner of
the project site. The proposed freestanding parking structure would replace surface
parking temporarily and permanently displaced by the construction of the proposed
residential building. Construction activities are anticipated to occur over an approximate
6-month timeframe. At the completion of Phase 1, there would be 1,821 parking spaces
available for office tenants.
Phase 2A: Residential Structure and Its Parking Garage
Phase 2A includes the demolition of approximately 443 surface parking spaces to allow
for the construction of the residential building and its 835-space parking garage.
Construction activities are anticipated to occur over an approximate 24-month timeframe.
At the completion of Phase 2A, there would be 1,654 parking spaces inclusive of existing
surface parking and replacement parking for office tenants (a net increase of 11 spaces
from 1,643), and new 559 parking spaces for residents and their guests.
During the construction of the new parking structure (Phase 1) and the construction of the
residential structure (Phase 2A), parking shuttles would be provided for the office tenants.
Phase 2B: Surface Parking Reconfiguration
Phase 2B includes the demolition and replacement of 75 surface parking spaces to allow
for the reconfiguration of on-site surface parking and access. Phase 2B construction
activities would run concurrent with Phase 2 A and are anticipated to occur over an
approximate 3-month timeframe. At the completion of Phase 2B, there would be 1,654
parking spaces for office tenants, a net increase of 11 spaces.

DISCUSSION
Analysis
Airport Business Area General Plan Policies
The subject property is located in the Airport Business Area and has a General Plan Land
Use Element designation of Mixed-Use Horizontal 2 (MU-H2), which provides for a
horizontal intermixing of uses that may include regional commercial office, multifamily
residential, vertical mixed-use buildings, industrial, hotel rooms, and ancillary
neighborhood commercial uses. The MU-H2 designation applies to a majority of
properties in the Airport Business Area outside the high noise levels from John Wayne
Airport. The MU-H2 allows a maximum of 2,200 residential units as replacement of
existing office, retail, and/or industrial uses at a maximum density of 50 units per net acre.
Any eligible density bonus allowed by Government Code Section 65915 (State density
bonus law) and NBMC Chapter 20.32 (Density Bonus) are not included in the 2,200
allowance or the 50 dwelling units per acre standard.
Of 2,200 units, a total of 550 units are identified as additive units meaning they are not
replacement units that would replace existing development. These 550 units may be
constructed as “infill” on existing surface parking lots or areas not used as occupiable
buildings on properties within the Conceptual Development Plan Area (CDPA) located
east of MacArthur Boulevard, as depicted on Figure LU22 Airport Business Area of the
Land Use Element. The CDPA has strong potential for the introduction of new residential
development and is further identified in Figure LU23 Airport Business Area Residential
Village Illustrative Concept Diagram. Figures LU22 and LU23 are shown on Pages 4 and
5 of the staff report.
Residential units approved, proposed and remaining within the MU-H2 designation of the
Airport Business Area are listed in the table below.

The General Plan contains a number of policies that provide for the orderly development
of the MU-H2 properties in the Airport Business Area, from a business park, to a mixed-
use district with residential uses integrated within the existing fabric of office, industrial,
retail, and airport-related businesses. Residential opportunities are to be developed as
clusters of residential villages centering on neighborhood parks and interconnected by
pedestrian walkways. These would contain a mix of housing types and buildings that
integrate with ground level retail and residential uses at a sufficient scale to achieve a
complete neighborhood.
The draft Planning Commission resolution (Attachment No. PC 1) includes an analysis of
relevant Airport Area policies. Furthermore, the EIR Addendum includes a comprehensive
analysis of all relevant General Plan policies. The project, as proposed, is consistent with
all relevant General Plan policies.
Integrated Conceptual Development Plan Consistency
Prior to any residential development within the Airport Business Area, the General Plan
Land Use Policy LU 6.15.11 requires the preparation of an Integrated Conceptual
Development Plan (ICDP) to:
“Demonstrate the compatible and cohesive integration of new housing, parking
structures, open spaces, recreational amenities, pedestrian and vehicular linkages, and
other improvements with existing non-residential structures and uses.”
In September of 2010, the City approved the Koll-Conexant ICDP to provide a framework
for the redevelopment of the 25-acre Uptown Newport site (formally known as Conexant),
and for the redevelopment of a 1 2.7-acre portion of the Koll Center Newport office park
between Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue.
20
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 16
The purpose of the ICDP was to allocate the additive units provided by the General Plan
to properties within the ICDP and to satisfy the planning requirements of the General Plan
itself. The ICDP is also aimed at fulfilling the policies of the General Plan, ensuring
cohesive and livable neighborhoods oriented to parks and pedestrian ways.
The ICDP provides a conceptual plan and allocates 1,504 new residential units as follows.

At the time the ICDP was approved, the Uptown Newport include d density bonus units
and the Koll Center Residences did not. The approval of the ICDP does not preclude the
inclusion of additional density pursuant to density bonus laws. The ICDP establishes the
direction for each of the property owners to separately pre pare and submit their own
21
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 17
regulatory plan for their holdings as a basis for environmental review, public hearings and
City action. The ICDP is a conceptual plan and its approval by the City did not convey
any rights to develop.
The approval of the ICDP was a pre-requisite for the preparation of the regulatory
documents, pursuant to General Plan Policy LU 6.15.11. Regulatory Plans must be in
substantial compliance with the intent of the ICDP, particularly in terms of the number of
additive residential units and the connectivity between the subject property and Uptown
Newport.
On February 26, 2013, the City Council approved a regulatory plan for the Uptown
Newport project, which consists of a mixed-use planned community of up to 1,244
residential units; 11,500 square feet of neighborhood-serving retail space; and two, one-
acre public parks (one for each phase of the overall project). The first phase of this
development is underway.
The subject application consists of the remaining 260 additive units allocated essentially
at the same location as identified in the ICDP. The project has a net developable
residential area of 5.9 acres, which includes the project site of 4.51 acres and the free-
standing parking area of 1.39 acres. The net density of the project is 44 units per acre
consistent with allowable density range of 30 to 50 units per net acre provided by Policies
LU 6.15.7 and LU 6.15.8. The net density does not include the 20-percent density
increase (52 units) that is allowed by the State Bonus Density law and the Newport Beach
Municipal Code in exchange for the 5-percent or 13 units set aside for affordable housing.
Altogether, the project has an overall density of 53 units per net acre.
The proposed project includes an approximately one-acre public park between the
proposed residential building and two existing office buildings. The park would be
dedicated to the City and it would be accessible from existing public sidewalks from both
Von Karman Avenue and Birch Street. Additionally, the park would be directly accessible
by residents of the project and employees of Koll Center Newport by walkways. The
proposed site plan meets the intent of the ICDP and is consistent with the illustrative
development program identified for the Koll site in the ICDP, which is in the same area of
the subject property. The project meets the 10-acre site requirement by having an overall
site area of approximately 13 acres to create a mixed-use residential village. The
proposed project is located at the existing land areas that are currently used for surface
parking and replace the removed spaces within the newly construction parking structure
and reconfigured parking lot. The project includes several surface parking lot parcels
which are to be transformed into residential development parcels along with the creation
of a new one-acre park to be intermixed with the existing office park. The project also
includes modification of surface parking areas to create a better balance of buildings and
open spaces, link existing and future open spaces amenities, and creates a network of
pedestrian walkways. An appropriate residential environment is created with new open
spaces and landscaping, the one-acre public park and walkways, and private amenities
for future residents.

Koll Center Newport Planned Community Development Plan Amendment
The subject property is currently zoned Planned Community and subject to PC -15. The
site is designated as Office Site B, which allows office and commercial uses; and
residential use is currently not permitted. In order to accommodate the proposed
development, the applicant is requesting an amendment to PC-15 to allow residential and
its related uses. Specifically, an overlay zone would be created to allow 312 residential
units and a one-acre public park. The proposed overlay zone is tailored to the
development in question and includes specific use and development standards. Also,
future opportunities for residential supportive retail uses within Professional and Business
Office Site B are included. The proposed free-standing parking structure is not located
within the proposed residential overlay zone as it is a replacement parking that belongs
to the common parking pool for office uses and tenants.
Part VI of PC-15 is a new section for the proposed overlay zone which includes the
project’s development regulations, site acreage and project density. The building height,
setbacks, and parking are also included along with the general provisions for on -site
circulation, loading, landscaping, signage, lighting, recreation and open space, and
notification of future residents. Part VII of PC-15 is also new and covers the one-acre
public park and it contains criteria for site acreage as well as park operation and
amenities. It also empowers the City’s Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission to
review and make a recommendation concerning prop osed park improvements.
With the precise location and tailored regulations identified in the proposed overlay zone,
staff believes the proposed development can be effectively implemented consistent with
the ICDP and applicable General Plan policies. The regulations will also provide effective
and ongoing land use regulations after the project is constructed. The amendment
proposed is the regulatory plan as required by Policy LU 6.15.10 of the General Plan.
Site Development Review
Pursuant to Section 20.52.080 (Site Development Review), a Site Development Review
is required for multiple-residential projects to ensure a quality project with respect to
consistency with the General Plan policies, the physical characteristics of the site, and
minimizing potential negative visual impacts.
In accordance with Section 20.52.080(F), the Planning Commission may approve or
conditionally approve a site development review application, only after first finding that
the proposed development is:
1. Allowed within the subject zoning district;
2. In compliance with all of the applicable criteria identified in 20.52.080(C)(2)(c)
below:

on the site and adjacent developments and public areas;
iv.The adequacy, efficiency, and safety of pedestrian and vehicular access,
including drive aisles, driveways, and parking and loading spaces;
v.The adequacy and efficiency of landscaping and open space areas and the use
of water efficient plant and irrigation materials; and
vi.The protection of significant views from public right(s)-of-way and compliance
with Section 20.30.100 (Public View Protection).
3.Not detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, nor endangers,
jeopardizes, or otherwise constitutes a hazard to the public convenience, health,
interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood of the proposed development.
As discussed above, the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and ICDP
as it would integrate a mix of residential with future opportunities for supportive retail uses,
a public park, and recreation amenities into the existing Koll Center Newport business
park as anticipated by the approved ICDP and General Plan. The applicant has requested
one concession or incentive related to the mix of affordable unit types which is described
in more detail in the Affordable Housing Implementation Plan section of this report. The
applicant contends the incentive is necessary to make the project financially feasible. The
City must approve the requested incentive pursuant to State Bonus Density law and the
Zoning Code in the absence of contrary evidence.
The housing included in the proposed project will help the city meet its housing production
targets under the city’s existing Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) target, and
under the proposed Sixth Cycle RHNA target which includes both past unmet and future
forecasted housing targets. The project is also consistent with the current Sustainable
Communities Strategy (Connect SoCal) adopted by the Southern California Association
of Governments in September 2020, which prioritizes adding housing to coastal job
centers as well as higher density, mixed-income housing located nearer jobs. Connect
SoCal is based on the Fifth Cycle RHNA targets, does not prescribe either housing
densities or housing locations, but does meet the greenhouse gas reduction target
assigned to the region by the state.

Building Placement & Compatibility
The proposed site plan shows the location and configuration of residential development,
private driveways, pedestrian ways, and locations of park and open space. The site plan
also identifies pedestrian connectivity between the Koll Center Newport Office Site B and
Uptown Newport Planned Community, vehicular and pedestrian access to Birch Street
and Von Karman Avenue.
The proposed 5-story residential building would be no more than 75 feet in height
including architectural elements, rooftop mechanical equipment, elevator shafts, and
emergency staircase. The project’s building mass is comparable and compatible to the
existing surrounding office developments, where these buildings vary in height, ranging
from single-story to ten-story, or up to 154 feet in height.
The residential building is strategically placed along the existing internal driveway so it
would reduce the impact to the surrounding office buildings and parking areas and provide
pedestrian connections between these buildings. The massing breaks will add visual
interest and reduce long obstructive building facades.
The contemporary architectural style of the residential building would be compatible with
the surrounding office buildings within the Koll Center Newport and the surrounding area
as it generally exhibits modern and contemporary architectural styles.
The proposed parking structure is designed to be compatible with the adjacent parking
structure and office buildings. The location is not visible from public streets Conditions of
approval will be in place to address potential lighting glare and noise generating from the
structure. The lighting for upper (roof) level will be limited to parking lot light standards not
in excess of 25 feet above the driving surface.
Project Amenities and Park
The proposed project includes a variety of quality-of-life provisions and enhanced
amenities. On-site recreation amenities including exterior balconies for most of the units,
pool and garden courtyards, a roof deck, a clubroom, a fitness center, a dog washing
room, and a bike storage. The one-acre public park will be improved and maintained by
the applicant. Additionally, open spaces and their connecting walkways will be provided
throughout the project site to further enhance the existing business complex for benefit of
public and office tenants. Lastly, three pedestrian connections will be provided to connect
the project to Phase 2 of the Uptown Newport project. Staff believes the number and type
of amenities provided for the proposed development, based on its size, type, and location
are adequate to create a suitable urban living environment integrated to the existing office
park.

Parking
Parking requirements are prescribed in Section 20.40.040 (Off -Street Parking Spaces
Required) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC). As the proposed development
includes a density bonus provision, the parking requirements for the residential
component of the project is prescribed in NBMC Section 20.32.040 (Parking
Requirements in Density Bonus Projects). As stipulated in this code section, the project
would be required to provide a minimum of one parking space for each studio and one-
bedroom apartment unit, and two parking spaces for the two- and three-bedroom units.
The minimum required parking for the residen tial component would be 420 spaces. The
proposed project has been designed to include 559 parking spaces on-site, which
exceeds the required parking by 139 parking spaces.
LSA, Inc. prepared a parking demand study dated August 14, 2020 (Attachment PC 3).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the parking supply and availability of parking
spaces during the construction of the project.
The parking demand study consists of a 5-day parking survey at nine surface parking
areas and one parking structure within the project site. The actual counts were taken pre-
Covid-19. These parking surface areas including parking structure are available for office
tenants and no parking reservation is present, and there is a total of 1,643 spaces. At the
peak demand, none of these parking areas were utilized 100 percent, and parking
utilization for the all parking areas is approximately 50 percent or 855 spaces. The surveys
also documented that office occupancies were in the range from 100 percent to 70
percent across the entire seven-building area.
The study concluded that based on the allocation of parking by phase, the demolition of
parking spaces, and the provision of parking supply during the third phase construction
(Phase 2B), as well as the observed parking accumulation over a typical week, adequate
parking is forecast during the construction period and after equilibration of the new
residential use. It also concluded that the provision of any additional transportation
demand or parking management strategies such as valet parking or shuttles is not
warranted. LSA, however, recommends wayfinding signage to assist patrons to the
available parking locations. Lastly, pedestrian access plans should be developed that
demonstrate safe and walkable pedestrian facilities during the construction phases of
development. Even though not recommended by the study, parking shuttles would be
provided for the office tenants during the construction of residential structure (Phase 2A).
As summarized above, staff believes the findings to approve the proposed site
development review application can be made and they are set forth in the draft resolution
for approval (Attachment PC-1.

Lot Line Adjustment (LLA)
The purpose of the proposed lot line adjustment is to adjust the lot lines of two underlying
parcels that comprise the subject parcel (Parcel 1) and common parking and landscape
areas of Office Site B (Parcel 2) in order to facilitate the proposed residential project.
Specifically, Parcel 1 would be adjusted to better align with the existing internal driveway
and remove non-associated office parking areas from the project footprints. The
adjustment would reduce the lot that would accommodate the proposed park and
residential development from 6.22 acres to 4.51 acres.
Section 19.76.020 of the Municipal Code establishes findings that must be made in order
to approve a lot line adjustment. The lot meets the minimum lot size and maintains the
frontage on two public streets. The findings and facts in support of the required finds for
the propose LLA are provided in the draft resolution of approval Attachment PC 1.
Traffic Phasing Ordinance
Chapter 15.40 (Traffic Phasing Ordinance, or TPO) of the Municipal Code requires a
traffic study to be prepared prior to issuance of building permits if a proposed project
generates in excess of 300 new average daily trips (ADT).
Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. has prepared a traffic study dated October 2020
(Exhibit E of Attachment PC 1), under the supervision of the City Traffic Engineer,
pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) and its implementing guidelines. The
focus of a TPO traffic study is the conditions one year after project occupancy, or five
years after project approval for larger projects not expected to be complete within five
years. Baseline traffic conditions for a TPO traffic study include previously approved
projects in the City. The entire project is anticipated to be complete within a 32-month
period.
The traffic study includes evaluation of the morning and evening peak hour of operations
at 25 existing intersections that are in the City and the adjoining City of Irvine. The project
is expected to generate an additional 1,697 daily trips, 112 during the AM peak hour and
138 during the PM peak hour. When these trips distributed to these studied intersections,
the analysis concludes that there is no significant impact as the project will neither cause
nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of service at any impact ed primary intersection,
and all intersections are forecasted to continue to operate at acceptable Levels of Service.
Furthermore, the TPO requires findings that, based on the weight of the evidence in the
administrative record, including the traffic study, the proposed project complies with the
TPO. Findings related to the preparation of the traffic study are provided in the draft
resolution for project approval (Attachment PC-1).

Affordable Housing Implementation Plan
The applicant has prepared a draft Affordable Housing Implementation Plan (AHIP),
dated October 2020 (Exhibit D of Attachment PC 1) to illustrate compliance with the
affordable housing requirements of the density bonus allowances pursuant Government
Code Section 65915-65918 (Density Bonus Law) and NBMC Chapter 20.32 (Density
Bonus Code).
As authorized pursuant to Government Code Section 65915-65918 (Density Bonus Law)
and NBMC Chapter 20.32 (Density Bonus Code), with the proposed five percent
allocation for very low-income households, the project is entitled to a density bonus of 20
percent (52 units) above the maximum number of units allowed by the General Plan.
In addition to the 52 density bonus units and pursuant to Government Code Section
65915(d)(1), the Project is eligible to receive one mandatory incentive or concession that
would result in identifiable, financially sufficient, and actual cost reductions. The proposed
project includes a request for one development concession for the unit mix.
Pursuant to NBMC Section 20.32.070, affordable units shall reflect the range of the
number of bedrooms provided in the residential development project as a whole. As
illustrated in table below, the project would provide a unit mix that includes a greater
percentage of studio and one-bedroom units than the entire project. Granting this
incentive will result in identifiable, financially sufficient, and actual project cost reductions
by reducing the long-term rental subsidy costs associated with the two-bedroom units and
affording additional rental income for the project to ensure financial feasibility.

Development Agreement
General Plan Land Use Policy LU6.15.12, the ICDP, and NBMC Chapter 15.45 require a
development agreement for all projects that include infill residential units in the Airport
Business Area and the proposed project meets this criterion. LU6.15.12 provides, “The
Development Agreement shall define the improvements and public benefits to be
provided by the developer in exchange for the City’s commitment for the number, density
and location of the housing units.”

In this case, the applicant would have a vested right to develop 312 dwelling units (260
base units and 52 density bonus units). The vested right to develop is for 10 years, with
options no options to extend.
In consideration of the vested development right, the applicant will pay a $7,500,000
public benefit fee. Of this amount, $6,500,000 will be paid within 5 days of the effective
date of the agreement. The remaining $1,000,000 will be paid at the time the building
permit is issued for the residential portion of the project. The City will retain full discretion
to use $6,000,000 of the fee. In light of the City’s commitment to address housing issues,
the City agrees to use the remaining $1,500,000.00 as follows: (i) $500,000.00 for the
operation of a homeless shelter or permanent supportive housing; and (ii) $1,000,000.00
to be placed in a separate affordable housing fund and used for the development of other
affordable housing projects in the City.
In addition to the public benefit fee, the applicant will pay $500,000 public safety fee to be
used, at City’s discretion, to fund the cost of staffing, services and equipment as
necessary for fire related public safety purposes. The fee shall be paid at the time the
first building permit is issued for the project.
The proposed development agreement (Exhibit F of Attachment No. PC 1) include all the
mandatory elements for consideration and public benefits that are appropriate to support
conveying the vested development rights consistent with the General Plan, the ICDP, and
NBMC Chapter 15.45, and Government Code Section 65864 et seq.
Airport Land Use Commission Consistency Determination
California Public Utilities Code Section 21676(b) and John Wayne Airport Environs Land
Use Plan (AELUP) Section 4.11 require the City to refer the proposed project to the Airport
Land Use Commission (ALUC) for consistency determination with the AELUP due to the
proposed zoning amendment (planned community development amendment). ALUC is
expected to consider the project’s consistency determination between the Planning
Commission and City Council consideration of the project. The necessary application to
the ALUC will be submitted prior to November 1, 2020, for possible consideration at the
November ALUC meeting after the Planning Commission meeting.
If ALUC finds the project consistent with the AELUP, no special action would be required
of the City Council should they choose to approve the project. Should ALUC find the
project inconsistent with AELUP, the City Council could choose to overrule the ALUC’s
decision by following the procedure established in Public Utilities Code Sections 21676
and 2176.5 if they choose to approve the project. The two-step procedure requires the
City Council to conduct two separate noticed public meetings. At the first meeting, the
City Council would consider whether to provide ALUC and State Division of Aeronautics
a copy of its proposed override decision and findings. After a 45-day notice period, the
purpose of the City Council’s second meeting is to adopt specific findings that the
29
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 25
overruling is consistent with the purposes stated in Public Utilities Code Section 21670.
Overruling the ALUC requires a two-thirds majority of the City Council.
Staff believes the proposed project is consistent with the requirements and standards in
the AELUP. The project site is located outside of the 65 dBA CNEL noise contour line
established by the AELUP, and its land use would be consistent with the General Plan.
The project site is located within JWA Safety Zone 6 which allows residential uses. The
draft Koll Center Planned Community amendment includes the requirement for the interior
of units to be sound attenuated and residents and park visitors will be notified of operating
aircraft. Additionally, the Applicant has submitted a Determination of No Hazard to Air
Navigation to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for 75 feet above ground level
(AGL), which is the proposed height maximum limit for the project. The approval is
pending.
Environmental Review
On July 25, 2006, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2006 -75, thereby certifying
the adequacy and completeness of the Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) for the
General Plan 2006 Update (SCH No. 2006011119). The EIR was prepared in compliance
with the CEQA set forth in the California Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.
and its implementing State regulations set forth in the California Code of Regulations Title
14, Division 6, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines”) and City Council Policy K -3. Additionally,
in accordance with Section 15168(a) of the CEQA Guidelines, the City prepared the EIR
as a Program Environmental Impact Report (“PEIR”). This PEIR analyzed the potential
impacts of a citywide land use plan, and the goals and policies of 10 general plan
elements.
Additionally, on November 22, 2011, the City Council adopted General Plan Amendment
No. GP2008-003, thereby approving the City of Newport Beach Housing Element Update
(2008-2014) and its associated Housing Element Initial Study/Negative Declaration.
Pursuant to Section 21166 of the California Public Resources Code and Section 15162
of the CEQA Guidelines, when an EIR has been certified for a project, no subsequent
EIR is required unless the lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial e vidence
in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following:
1. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major
revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant
environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously
identified significant effects;
2. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the
project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due
to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
30
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 26
3. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not
have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the
previous EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following:
a. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the
previous EIR;
b. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe
than shown in the previous EIR;
c. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible
would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more
significant effects of the project, but the project proponents de cline to
adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
d. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from
those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or
more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents
decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
On the basis of the entire environmental review record, the project will not result in any
new significant impacts that were not previously analyzed in the PEIR for the General
Plan 2006 Update (SCH No. 2006011119) or the Housing Element Initial Study/Negative
Declaration. All potential impacts associated with this Project would either be the same
or less than those described in either the PEIR that have been appropriately mitiga ted. In
addition, there are no substantial changes to the circumstances under which the project
would be undertaken that would result in new or more severe environmental impacts than
previously addressed in either the PEIR, nor has any new information rega rding the
potential for new or more severe significant environmental impacts been identified.
Therefore, in accordance with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, an addendum to
the previously adopted PEIR is the appropriate environmental document for the project.
The entire Addendum and its technical appendixes are available online at the City’s
website at: www.newportbeachca.gov/ceqa
Summary
In summary, staff believes the proposed project is consistent with General Plan Land Use
designation and its land use policies related residential developments in the Airport
Business Area. The proposed project meets the intent of the ICDP and is consistent with
the illustrative development program identified for the subject site with regard to the
proposed density, the one-acre public park and the pedestrian connectivity within the
existing office park and adjacent Uptown Newport Planned Community. The proposed
residential overlay zone is tailored to the proposed residential development with site
31
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Planning Commission, November 5, 2020
Page 27
acreage, density, and development standards. The proposed development with on-site
recreation amenities and dedicated public park, with adequate provisions of new
residential parking and office replacement parking, will create a suitable urban living
environment integrated to the existing office parking. The traffic study for the proposed
project has been prepared in compliance with the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. The
prepared Addendum is the appropriate environment document for the project. These
technical reports have demonstrated that the proposed project would not result in new or
increased significant impacts to the studied areas. The site development review will
ensure the project will be implemented consistent with the approved development
standards. The proposed project is consistent with the requirements and standards in the
AELUP for reasons stated above. The proposed AHIP is supportive as it demonstrates
how the proposed project would meet the City’s affordable housing requirements. Lastly,
the proposed development agreement would provide vested rights for project
development while also providing negotiated public benefits.
Alternatives
The Planning Commission has the discretion to recommend changes to the proposed
project to address areas of concern or to improve the proposed plan. The Commission
can also recommend denial if it believes the proposed plan introduces incompatible uses
to the area that cannot be adequately mitigated or if consistency with the MU -H2 and/or
other applicable Airport Area policies are not in evidence.
Public Notice
Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to all owners of property
within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site (excluding intervening rights -of-way and
waterways) including the applicant and posted on the subject property at least 10 days
before the scheduled meeting, consistent with the provisions of the Municipal Code.
Additionally, the item appeared on the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City
Hall and on the City website.

General Plan (“General Plan”) Land Use Element and located within the Airport Business
Area, which is regulated by the Airport Business Area Integrated Conceptual Development
Plan (“ICDP”). The ICDP allocates a maximum of 260 residential units to be developed on
the Property.
4. The Property is currently located within the PC-15 (Koll Center Newport Planned
Community Office Site B) Zoning District.
5. The Property is not located within the coastal zone, therefore, an amendment to the
Coastal Land Use Plan or a coastal development permit are not required.
6. A telephonic public hearing was held on November 5, 2020 in the City Council Chambers
located at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, due to the Declaration of a State
Emergency and Proclamation of Local Emergency related to COVID-19. A notice of time,
place and purpose of the hearing was given in accordance with Government Code
Section 54950 et. seq. (“Ralph M. Brown Act”), Chapter 15.45 (Development
Agreements), Chapter 19.74 (Lot Line Adjustments), 20.56 (Planned Community District
Procedures) and Chapter 20.62 (Public Hearings) of the NBMC. Evidence, both written
and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Planning Commission at this hearing.
SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION.
1. On July 25, 2006, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2006-75, thereby certifying the
adequacy and completeness of the Environmental Impact Report (“EIR”) for the General
Plan Update (SCH No. 2006011119). The EIR was prepared in compliance with CEQA
Guidelines set forth in the California Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq. and
its implementing State regulations set forth in the California Code of Regulations Title
14, Division 6, Chapter 3 (“CEQA Guidelines”) and City Council Policy K-3. Additionally,
in accordance with Section 15168(a) of the CEQA Guidelines, the City prepared the EIR
38
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 3 of 43
as a Program Environmental Impact Report (“PEIR”). This PEIR analyzed the potential
impacts of a citywide land use plan, and the goals and policies of 10 general plan elements.
Additionally, on November 22, 2011, the City Council adopted General Plan Amendment
No. GP2008-003, thereby approving the City of Newport Beach Housing Element Update
(2008-2014) and its associated Housing Element and Initial Study/Negative Declaration
under CEQA. The PEIR and Initial Study/Negative Declaration are collectively referred to
herein as the “PEIR”).
2. Pursuant to Section 21166 of the California Public Resources Code and Section 15162
of the CEQA Guidelines, when an EIR has been certified for a project, no subsequent
EIR is required unless the lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence
in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following:
a. Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions
of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental
effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects;
b. Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the
project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due
to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or
c. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not
have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the
previous EIR was certified as complete, shows any of the following:
i. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the
previous EIR;
ii. Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe
than shown in the previous EIR;
iii. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible
would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more
significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to
adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
iv. Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from
those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more
significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline
to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
3. As the Project is within the allowable residential land use and density in the General
Plan and analyzed in the PEIR, an Addendum to PEIR was prepared pursuant to Section
39
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 4 of 43
15162 (Subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations) and 15164 (Addendum to an EIR
or Negative Declaration) of the CEQA Guidelines.
4. The following environmental topics were analyzed for the Project: Aesthetics, Air
Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Energy, Geology and Soils,
Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water
Quality, Land Use and Planning, Noise, Population and Housing, Public Services,
Recreation, Transportation, Utilities and Service Systems, and Wildfire. The Addendum
includes analysis of new topics that were not included in the previous EIRs; specifically,
it includes a new energy section and a new wildfire section. These additional analyses
are appropriate for inclusion in the Addendum, but none result in new or increased
significant impacts that would require preparation of a subsequent EIR pursuant to
Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines.
5. On the basis of the PEIR and entire environmental review record, the Project will not result
in any new significant impacts that were not previously analyzed in the PEIR. The
Addendum confirms and provides substantial evidence that the potential impacts
associated with this Project would either be the same or less than those described in either
the PEIR, as mitigated by applicable mitigation measures in the PEIR. In addition, there
are no substantial changes to the circumstances under which the Project would be
undertaken that would result in new or more severe environmental impacts than previously
addressed in either the PEIR, nor has any new information regarding the potential for new
or more severe significant environmental impacts been identified. Therefore, in accordance
with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines, an addendum to the previously adopted PEIR
is the appropriate environmental document for the Project. In taking action to approve any
of the requested applications for the Project, the data presented in the PEIR, as augmented
by the Addendum for this Project, are considered as part of the record.
6. The Addendum to the PEIR, is hereby recommended for adoption by the City Council given
its analysis and conclusions. The Addendum to the PEIR and related and referenced
documentation, constitute the administrative record upon which this decision was based,
are on file with the Planning Division, City Hall, 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach,
California.
7. The Planning Commission finds that judicial challenges to the City's CEQA
determinations and approvals of land use projects are costly and time consuming. In
addition, project opponents often seek an award of attorneys' fees in such challenges.
As project applicants are the primary beneficiaries of such approvals, it is appropriate
that such applicants should bear the expense of defending against any such judicial
challenge, and bear the responsibility for any costs, attorneys' fees, and damages which
may be awarded to a successful challenger.

SECTION 3. FINDINGS.
Koll Center Newport Planned Community Development Plan Amendment
An amendment to PC-15, which is the zoning document for the Property, is a legislative act.
Neither PC-15, Chapters 20.66 (Amendments) and 20.56 (Planned Community Development
District Procedures) of Title 20 (Planning and Zoning) of the NBMC, or Article 2 (Adoption of
Regulations) of Chapter 4 (Zoning Regulations) of Division 1 (Planning and Zoning) of Title 7
(Planning and Land Use) of the California Government Code set forth any required findings for
either approval or denial of amendments to the NBMC.
However, the proposed residential overlay to allow residential and related uses within specific
(“Residential Overlay Zone”) areas of Office Site B is consistent with the intent of PC-15 and
consistent with the purpose of Planned Community Districts as specified in NBMC Section
20.56.010 (Purpose) for the following reasons:
1. The Residential Overlay Zone provides for the classification and development of 260
additive residential units consistent with the goals and policies of the MU-H2 (Mixed-Use
Horizontal 2) land use designation and the ICDP and 20 percent density bonus of 52
units for a total 312 residential units, while maintaining the business and professional
office park environment.
2. The Residential Overlay Zone is tailored for the Project and it includes density and
intensity, and development standards such as building height, setbacks, and parking. It
also includes general provisions for on-site circulation, loading, landscaping, signage,
lighting, and recreation and open space requirements to ensure the Project will be
compatible with the existing office developments within Office Site B.
Major Site Development Review
In accordance with Section 20.52.080(F) (Site Development Reviews – Findings and
Decisions) of the NBMC, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set
forth:
Finding:
A. The proposed development is allowed within the subject zoning district.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Property is located within Offices Site B which permits professional and business
offices, hotels and motels, retail, restaurants and entertainment, a courthouse, private
clubs, auto detailing and service stations. Currently, Site B only allows professional and
business offices, restaurants, and support commercial uses. The Project provides the
adoption of Residential Overlay Zone with provisions for residential development
consistent with the MU-H2 (Mixed-Use Horizontal 2) land use designation and the ICDP.
41
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 6 of 43
With approval of the amendment to PC-15, the Project would be allowed within the
Residential Overlay Zone of PC-15.
2. With the adoption of Residential Overlay Zone, the Project meeting the development
requirements will be permitted by right, subject to approval of a site development review.
Finding:
B. The proposed development is in compliance with all of the following applicable criteria:
i. Compliance with this section, the General Plan, this Zoning Code, any applicable
specific plan, and other applicable criteria and policies related to the use or
structure;
ii. The efficient arrangement of structures on the site and the harmonious relationship
of the structures to one another and to other adjacent developments; and whether
the relationship is based on standards of good design;
iii. The compatibility in terms of bulk, scale, and aesthetic treatment of structures on
the site and adjacent developments and public areas;
iv. The adequacy, efficiency, and safety of pedestrian and vehicular access, including
drive aisles, driveways, and parking and loading spaces;
v. The adequacy and efficiency of landscaping and open space areas and the use of
water efficient plant and irrigation materials; and
vi. The protection of significant views from public right(s)-of-way and compliance with
NBMC Section 20.30.100 (Public View Protection).
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Property is located in the Airport Business Area and has a City of Newport Beach
General Plan Land Use Element designation of MU-H2 (Mixed-Use Horizontal 2), which
provides for a horizontal intermixing of uses that may include regional commercial office,
multifamily residential, vertical mixed-use buildings, industrial, hotel rooms, and ancillary
neighborhood commercial uses. The MU-H2 designation applies to a majority of
properties in the Airport Business Area outside the high noise levels from John Wayne
Airport. The MU-H2 allows a maximum of 2,200 residential units as replacement of
existing office, retail, and/or industrial uses at a maximum density of 50 units per net
acre. Any eligible density bonus allowed by Government Code Section 65915 (Density
Bonus Law) and Chapter 20.32 (Density Bonus) of the NBMC, are not included in the
2,200 allowance or the 50 dwelling units per acre standard.
Of 2,200 units, a total of 550 of these units are identified as additive units meaning they
are not replacement units. These 550 units may be constructed as infill on existing
surface parking lots or areas not used as occupiable buildings on properties within the
42
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 7 of 43
Conceptual Development Plan Area (“CDPA”), located east of MacArthur Boulevard, as
depicted on Figure LU22 Airport Area of the Land Use Element.
Prior to any residential development within the Airport Business Area, the City of
Newport Beach General Plan Land Use Policy LU 6.15.11 requires the preparation of
ICDP. In September of 2010, the City approved the Koll-Conexant ICDP to provide a
framework for the redevelopment of the 25-acre Uptown Newport site (formally known
as Conexant), and for the redevelopment of a 12.7-acre portion of the Koll Center
Newport office park between Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue with new residential
development and open space, carefully integrated with the existing office buildings and
parking structures.
The ICDP allocates 1,504 new residential units: 1,244 of which have been approved and
being developed on the Uptown Newport property and the remaining 260 on the Koll
Center Newport office park. All 260 of the new residential units on this site would be
“additive” units since no existing office uses would be removed. Together, the two (2)
properties would use all of the 550 additive units prescribed for the ICDP area by the
General Plan.
The City of Newport Beach General Plan contains a number of policies that provide for
the orderly development of the MU-H2 properties in the Airport Business Area, from a
business park, to a mixed-use district with cohesive residential villages integrated within
the existing fabric of office, industrial, retail, and airport-related businesses. Residential
opportunities are to be developed as clusters of residential villages centering on
neighborhood parks and interconnected by pedestrian walkways. These would contain
a mix of housing types and buildings that integrate with ground level retail and residential
uses at a sufficient scale to achieve a complete neighborhood.
2. The Project is consistent with the following City of Newport Beach General Plan policies
that establish fundamental criteria for the formation and implementation of new
residential villages in the Airport Business Area in general, and in the CDPA (additional
policy analysis is included in the EIR Addendum attached hereto as Exhibit “B”):
a. Land Use Element Policy LU 2.3 - Range of Residential Choices: Provide
opportunities for the development of residential units that respond to community
and regional needs in terms of density, size, location, and cost. Implement goals,
policies, programs, and objectives identified within the City’s Housing Element.
The PCDP Amendment establishes a Residential Overlay Zone to allow for multi-family
residential uses, including affordable units that can respond to market needs and
diversify the City’s housing stock.
b. LU 3.8 Project Entitlement Review with Airport Land Use Commission -. Refer
the adoption or amendment of the General Plan, Zoning Code, specific plans,
and Planned Community development plans for land within the John Wayne
Airport planning area, as established in the JWA Airport Environs Land Use Plan
(AELUP), to the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) for Orange County for
43
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 8 of 43
review, as required by Section 21676 of the California Public Utilities Code. In
addition, refer all development projects that include buildings with a height greater
than 200 feet above ground level to the ALUC for review.
The Project is within the boundaries of the Airport Environs Land Use Plan (“AELUP”).
The overseeing agency, Airport Land Use Commission (“ALUC”), must review the
proposed PCDP Amendment pursuant to Government Code Section 65302.3 and Public
Utilities Code Section 21676. The purpose of the review is to determine the Project’s
consistency with the AELUP prior to the City Council taking action on the Project.
The Project is located outside of the 60-dB CNEL noise contour and located within JWA
Safety Zone 6. The PCDP Amendment includes regulations for the posting of signs in
the outdoor common areas and proposed one-acre public park. The Project is located
in JWA Safety Zone 6 and the AELUP allows residential uses in that zone. The PCDP
Amendment does not introduce any new noise-sensitive uses that are inconsistent with
AELUP Noise Impact Zones or compatibility qualities of the AELUP Safety Zones.
Despite the Project’s consistency with the AELUP, the ALUC may find the Project
inconsistent and should they do so, approval of the Project would require the Newport
Beach City Council to override this determination with a two-thirds vote.
a. LU 6.15.5 Residential and Supporting Uses. Accommodate the development of
a maximum of 2,200 multi-family residential units, including work force housing,
and mixed-use buildings that integrate residential with ground level office or retail
uses, along with supporting retail, grocery stores, and parklands. Residential
units may be developed only as the replacement of underlying permitted
nonresidential uses. When a development phase includes a mix of residential
and nonresidential uses or replaces existing industrial uses, the number of peak
hour trips generated by cumulative development of the site shall not exceed the
number of trips that would result from development of the underlying permitted
nonresidential uses. However, a maximum of 550 units may be developed as infill
on surface parking lots or areas not used as occupiable buildings on properties
within the Conceptual Development Plan Area depicted on Figure LU22 provided
that the parking is replaced on site.
The proposed residential units would be “additive” units because no existing
development would be removed, other than surface parking lots and common landscape
areas within Office Site B. The Project would replace onsite parking through a
combination of structure and surface parking. The Project would provide 559 onsite
parking spaces for its residential units, and replace 635 parking stalls to serve the
existing office buildings in the free-standing parking structure located at the southeast
corner of the project site and within the residential parking structure.
b. LU 6.15.6. Size of Residential Villages. Allow development of mixed-use
residential villages, each containing a minimum of 10 acres and centered on a
neighborhood park and other amenities (as conceptually illustrated in Figure
LU23). The first phase of residential development in each village shall
encompass at least 5 gross acres of land, exclusive of existing rights-of-way. This
44
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 9 of 43
acreage may include multiple parcels provided that they are contiguous or face
one another across an existing street. At the discretion of the City, this acreage
may also include part of a contiguous property in a different land use category, if
the City finds that a sufficient portion of the contiguous property is used to provide
functionally proximate parking, open space, or other amenity. The “Conceptual
Development Plan” area shown on Figure LU22 shall be exempt from the 5-acre
minimum, but a conceptual development plan described in Policy LU 6.15.11
shall be required.
The Property is approximately 13.0 acres in size to be developed as a single-phase
residential development which includes the multiple parcels consisting of adjacent
commercial parcels and their surface parking and landscaped areas, the proposed
development parcels, and the reconfigured and replacement parking areas to create a
residential village consistent with ICDP. The Project is designed to be adjacent and
proximate to existing office, commercial, and transit uses to facilitate a mixed-use
environment where future residents could walk or bike to work, retail locations, and the
transit. The Project would include a one-acre public park centrally located between the
existing office developments and new residential structure with a pedestrian linkage
system to provide a convenient connection throughout the project site and to adjacent
Uptown Newport Planned Community.
c. LU 6.15.7. Overall Density and Housing Types. Require that residential units be
developed at a minimum density of 30 units and maximum of 50 units per net
acre averaged over the total area of each residential village. Net acreage shall
be exclusive of existing and new rights-of-way, public pedestrian ways, and
neighborhood parks. Within these densities, provide for the development of a mix
of building types ranging from townhomes to high-rises to accommodate a variety
of household types and incomes and to promote a diversity of building masses
and scales.
The Project has a base density of 44 units per net acre (260 units) which is consistent
with a maximum of 50 du/acre allowance. This base density does not include the 20-
percent density bonus of 52 units that is allowed by the State Bonus Density law in
exchange for the 5-percent or 13 units set aside for affordable housing. Altogether, the
Project has an overall density of 53 units per net acre.
The Project is considered a mid-rise podium style, for-rent apartment development.
Although the residential development is limited to one particular housing product, the
312 apartment units include a mix of unit types, ranging from studio to two-bedroom
units, accommodating a variety of household types and income. Of the 312 residential
units, 13 units will be affordable to low-income households and 299 units will be market-
rate housing.
d. LU 6.15.8. First Phase Development Density. Require a residential density of 45
to 50 units per net acre, averaged over the first phase for each residential village.
This shall be applied to 100 percent of properties in the first phase development
area whether developed exclusively for residential or integrating service
45
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 10 of 43
commercial horizontally on the site or vertically within a mixed-use building. On
individual sites, housing development may exceed or be below this density to
encourage a mix of housing types, provided that the average density for the area
encompassed by the first phase is achieved.
The Project is located in the ICDP which is exempt from this specific density
requirement, but is subject to the minimum density of 30 dwelling units per net acre and
a maximum density of 50 dwelling units per net acre. With a density of approximately 44
dwelling units per net acre, the Project is in compliance with this criteria.
e. LU 6.15.9 Subsequent Phase Development Location and Density. Subsequent
phases of residential development shall abut the first phase or shall face the first
phase across a street. The minimum density of residential development
(including residential mixed-use development) shall be 30 units per net acre and
shall not exceed the maximum of 50 units per net acre averaged over the
development phase.
The Project would be developed in one (1) phase and have a density of 44 dwelling
units per acre.
f. LU 6.15.10 Regulatory Plans. Require the development of a regulatory plan for
each residential village, which shall contain a minimum of 10 acres, to coordinate
the location of new parks, streets, and pedestrian ways, set forth a strategy to
accommodate neighborhood-serving commercial uses, and other amenities,
establish pedestrian and vehicular connections with adjoining land uses; and
ensure compatibility with office, industrial, and other nonresidential uses.
The Project includes an amendment to PC-15 to include provisions allowing for
residential development consistent with the City’s General Plan and the ICDP. The site
would be developed with residential uses adjacent and proximate to office, commercial,
transit, and open space uses to facilitate a compatible mixed-use environment. The
Project would incorporate pedestrian and vehicular connections to adjacent land uses,
including through pedestrian-scale sidewalks and open space linkages.
The overall Project development site is approximately 13 acres, which consists of the
project site, the existing office developments, and common open spaces and parking
facilities, exceeds the minimum 10-acre for each residential village.
g. LU 6.16.11 Conceptual Development Plan. Require the development of one
conceptual development plan for the area depicted on Figure LU22, should
demonstrate the compatibility and cohesive integration of new housing, parking
structures, open spaces, recreational amenities, pedestrian and vehicular
linkages, and other improvements with existing nonresidential structures and
uses. To the extent existing amenities are proposed to satisfy Neighborhood Park
requirements, the plan shall identify how these amenities with meet the
recreational needs of residents. Each residential village in the Conceptual
46
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 11 of 43
Development Plan Area shall also comply with all elements required for
regulatory plans defined by Policy 6.15.10.
The Project is consistent with the intent of ICDP. The Project consists of 260 additive
units, together with 52 density bonus units for a total of 312 residential units to create a
mixed-use community adjacent to and surrounded by office, commercial, open space,
and transit uses. This mix of land uses would foster the ICDP’s vision of a compatible
mixed-use community. The residential uses would be linked to adjacent office and
commercial uses through pedestrian connections, sidewalks, and open space. The
proposed one-acre park is centrally located and accessible to residents and office users.
Adequate parking for the proposed residential units and replacement office parking will
be provided within the project site. The parking garage will be screened through
landscaping and articulated facades. The Project will include a pedestrian-scale street
and pedestrian walkways that foster a village atmosphere. Ground level residential uses
will promote active and engaging street fronts through balconies, landscaping, and
building features.
h. LU 6.15.12. Development Agreements. A Development Agreement shall be
required for all projects that include infill residential units. The Development
Agreement shall define the improvements and public benefits to be provided by
the developer in exchange for the City’s commitment for the number, density, and
location of the housing units.
The Project includes a development agreement which will be implemented as part of the
project approval.
i. LU 6.15.13 Neighborhood Parks Standards. To provide a focus and identity for
the entire neighborhood and to serve the daily recreational and commercial
needs of the community within easy walking distance of homes, require
dedication and improvement of at least 8 percent of the gross land area (exclusive
of existing rights-of-way) of the first phase development in each neighborhood,
or ½ acre, whichever is greater, as a neighborhood park. This requirement may
be waived by the City where it can be demonstrated that the development parcels
are too small to feasibly accommodate the park or inappropriately located to
serve the needs of local residents, and when an in-lieu fee is paid to the City for
the acquisition and improvement of other properties as parklands to serve the
Airport Area.
In every case, the neighborhood park shall be at least 8 percent of the total
Residential Village Area or one acre in area, whichever is greater, and shall have
a minimum dimension of 150 feet. Park acreage shall be exclusive of existing or
new rights-of-way, development sites, or setback areas. A neighborhood park
shall satisfy some or all of the requirements of the Park Dedication Ordinance, as
prescribed by the Recreation Element of the General Plan.
The Project includes the dedication of a one-acre public park exclusive of existing and
new right-of-way, development sites and setback areas. The park would serve the
47
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 12 of 43
Project’s future residents, existing offices and businesses within the Koll Center office
park as a recreation and relaxation area. Park amenities include a dog park, community
social area with benches, shade structures, and bocce ball court.
j. LU 6.15.14 Location. Require that each neighborhood park is clearly public in
character and is accessible to all residents of the neighborhood. Each park shall
be surrounded by public streets on at least two sides (preferably with on-street
parking to serve the park), and shall be linked to residential uses in its respective
neighborhood by streets or pedestrian ways.
The one-acre park will be developed as a neighborhood park, and it would be accessible
to the public during daylight hours. The proposed park will be dedicated but improved
and maintained by the applicant. The park is surrounded by Birch Street and Von
Karman Avenue and linked to the Project and existing office developments by
pedestrian walkways.
k. LU 6.15.15. Aircraft Notification. Require that all neighborhood parks be posted
with a notification to users regarding proximity to John Wayne Airport and aircraft
overflight and noise.
The park will be posted with a notification to users regarding proximity to John Wayne
Airport and aircraft overflight and noise.
l. LU 6.15.16 On-Site Recreation and Open Space Standards. Require developers
of multi-family residential developments on parcels 8 acres or larger to provide
on-site recreational amenities. For these developments, 44 square feet of on-site
recreational amenities shall be provided for each dwelling unit in addition to the
requirements under the City’s Park Dedication Ordinance and in accordance with
the Parks and Recreation Element of the General Plan. On-site recreational
amenities can consist of public urban plazas or squares where there is the
capability for recreation and outdoor activity. These recreational amenities may
also include swimming pools, exercise facilities, tennis courts, and basketball
courts. Where there is insufficient land to provide on-site recreational amenities,
the developer shall be required to pay cash in-lieu that would be used to develop
or upgrade nearby recreation facilities to offset user demand as defined in the
City’s Park Dedication Fee Ordinance.
The acreage of on-site open space developed with residential projects may be
credited against the parkland dedication requirements where it is accessible to
the public during daylight hours, visible from public rights-of-way, and is of
sufficient size to accommodate recreational use by the public. However, the credit
for the provision of on-site open space shall not exceed 30 percent of the parkland
dedication requirements.
The Project exceeds the 13,728 square-foot (44 square feet x312 unit) on-site
recreational amenities by providing a total of 19,768 square feet or 63 square feet per
dwelling unit. These are outdoor courtyards with swimming pool and spa, and BBQ
48
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 13 of 43
areas, and a roof deck. In addition to the on-site recreation amenities, the Project also
features private balconies in most of the units; and a fitness center, a clubroom, a dog
wash facility and bike shop/storage to be used by the residents in a total of 7,700 square
feet.
m. LU 6.15.17 Street and Pedestrian Grid. Create a pattern of streets and pedestrian
ways that breaks up large blocks, improves connections between neighborhoods
and community amenities, and is scaled to the predominantly residential
character of the neighborhoods.
The Project includes an internal street that will traverse the site and connect Von Karman
to Birch Street approximately halfway through the block. The proposed pedestrian
circulation will facilitate connections between the proposed residential development with
adjacent office uses and public sidewalks and streets. It also includes a public park that
is connected to Von Karman and Birch street through new pedestrian walkways.
n. LU 6.15.19 Connected Streets. Require dedication and improvement of new
streets as shown on Figure LU23. The illustrated alignments are tentative and
may change as long as the routes provide the intended connectivity. If traffic
conditions allow, connect new and existing streets across Macarthur Boulevard
with signalized intersections, crosswalks, and pedestrian refuges in the median.
See finding LU 6.15.17 Street and Pedestrian Grid above.
o. LU 6.15.20 Pedestrian Improvements.
See finding LU 6.15.17 Street and Pedestrian Grid above
p. LU 6.15.22 Building Massing. Require that high-rise structures be surrounded
with low- and mid-rise structures fronting public streets and pedestrian ways or
other means to promote a more pedestrian scale.
The proposed five-story apartment building would be compatible with surrounding
structures and would provide a variety of building mass and scale similar to the nearby
existing one to four story office buildings. Walkways would be provided within the
Project and would connect to existing sidewalks on Birch Street and Von Karman
Avenue. Other pedestrian scale features would include landscaped areas surrounding
the apartment building and a one-acre public park.
q. LU 6.15.23 Sustainability Development Practices. Require that development
achieves a high level of environmental sustainability that reduces pollution and
consumption of energy, water, and natural resources. This may be accomplished
through the mix and density of uses, building location and design, transportation modes,
and other techniques. Among the strategies that should be considered are the
integration of residential with jobs-generating uses, use of alternative transportation
modes, maximized walkability, use of recycled materials, capture and re-use of storm
49
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 14 of 43
water on-site, water conserving fixtures and landscapes, and architectural elements that
reduce heat gain and loss.
The Project would be required to comply with the provisions of the Building and Energy
Efficiency Standards (CCR, Title 24, Parts 6 and 11) and the Green Building Standards
Code (CCR, Title 24, Part 11 - CALGreen). Additionally, the Project would implement
water-efficient landscaping; electric vehicle charging stations in the parking structures;
water quality best management practices to treat surface runoff from the project site;
and low impact development practices.
The Project is also adjacent to office developments in the Airport Business Area and
would provide housing near employment opportunities. The Project includes a one-acre
public park and pedestrian linkage system that would provide connections throughout
the site and to adjacent and surrounding uses, thereby providing an alternative mode of
public transportation for the residents and their visitors. The Project would also provide
alternative forms of transportation to residents by locating close to the existing Orange
County Transportation Authority (“OCTA”) bus routes provided along Von Karman
Avenue, Birch Street, Campus Drive, Jamboree Road, and MacArthur Boulevard.
r. LU 6.15.24- Airport Compatibility. Require that all development be constructed
within the height limits and residential be located outside of areas exposed to the 65
dBA CNEL noise contour specified by the Airport Environs Land Use Plan (AELUP),
unless the City Council makes appropriate findings for an override in accordance with
applicable law.
The Project requires a determination of consistency with the AELUP for John Wayne
Airport by the ALUC in accordance with City of Newport Beach General Plan Policy LU
3.8 and the requirements outlined in the AELUP because the Project requires an
amendment to PC-15 to allow for residential uses in Offices Site B consistent with the
City’s General Plan and the ICDP. The AELUP shows the project site is outside of the
60 dBA CNEL contour. Additionally, on-site buildings would not exceed 75 feet.
3. The Project dictates the location and configuration of residential development, private
driveways/streets, pedestrian ways, and locations of park and open space. The Project
also identifies pedestrian connectivity between the Koll Center Newport business park
and Uptown Newport planned community, vehicular and pedestrian access to Birch
Street and Von Karman Avenue.
4. The proposed 5-story residential building would be at 75 feet including architectural
elements, rooftop mechanical equipment, elevator shafts, and emergency staircase.
The architecture would be high-quality and would incorporate neutral colors with
stone/tile, metal, and glass features. The project’s building mass is comparable and
compatible to the existing surrounding office developments, where these buildings are
ranging from single-story to ten-story, or up to 154 feet in height.
The proposed 3-story free-standing parking structure would be approximately 40 feet
tall and smaller in size compared to the adjacent 5000 Birch office’s parking structure.
50
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 15 of 43
It would include neutral colors and materials to ensure compatibility with surrounding
office developments.
5. The placement of the residential building would allow for views through the project site
to the surrounding office buildings. The massing breaks will add visual interest and
reduce long obstructive building facades. The placement of the residential building is
aligned with the internal street so it would be the least impactful to the surrounding office
buildings and provided maximum pedestrian connections between these buildings.
6. The Project includes a variety of enhanced amenities including private balconies for
most of the units, pool and garden courtyards, a clubroom, a fitness center, a dog wash
room, and a bike storage. The one-acre public park will be improved and maintained by
the applicant. Additionally, open spaces and their connecting walkways will be provided
throughout the project site for further benefit of office tenants and residents. Lastly, three
pedestrian connections will be provided to connect the project to Phase 2 of the Uptown
Newport project.
7. The Project includes 559 onsite parking spaces for its residential units and a total of 635
replacement parking stalls to serve the existing office buildings. Therefore, upon
completion of the project, there would be adequate onsite parking exceeding the
minimum required residential standard and replacement office parking.
8. The Project includes a public-accessible park and passive open space with landscaping
surrounding the proposed residential building. The park and open space would feature
a pavilion with a signature tree and a multi-purpose lawn. In addition to the public open
space areas, the project features private open space, such as balconies and a rooftop
deck. The Project would incorporate water-efficient landscaping where feasible and
would comply with the provisions of the Building and Energy Efficiency Standards (CCR,
Title 24, Parts 6 and 11) and the Green Building Standards Code (CCR, Title 24, Part
11 - CALGreen).
9. The Project is generally flat and is bordered by existing office buildings and developed
roadways. The City’s General Plan does not identify any scenic vistas or view points on
or proximate to the project site. The nearest public view point to the project site identified
in the City’s General Plan is approximately 1.14 miles south of State Route (SR) 73 at
Bayview Park. The nearest coastal view designated portion of Jamboree Road is
approximately 0.6 mile south of the site. Due to the distance and highly urbanized nature
of the project area, public coastal views along this view corridor would not be impacted
by the project.
Finding:
C. The proposed development is not detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the
City, nor will it endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public
convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of person residing or working in the
neighborhood of the proposed development.
51
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 16 of 43
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Project would facilitate orderly growth of the City and the Airport Area and within
planned growth contemplated in the ICDP.
2. The Project has been designed to ensure that potential conflicts with surrounding land
uses are minimized to the extent possible to maintain a healthy environment for both
businesses and residents by providing an architecturally pleasing project with
articulation and building modulations to enhance the urban environment.
3. The proposed residential building has been designed to accommodate and provide safe
access for emergency vehicles, delivery trucks, and refuse collections vehicles, as
determined by the City Traffic Engineer. Refuse collection is accommodated via two on-
site staging areas within the loading zones in front of the building to ensure safe
maneuvering by refuse vehicles. Emergency vehicles will have access via Von Karman
Avenue and Birch Street and along the spine street.
4. The proposed free-standing parking structure has been designed to accommodate and
provide adequate parking for the office users. Adequate signage and lighting will be
provided for ease of use and safety of the users.
5. The Property is located approximately 0.44 mile east of the southernmost John Wayne
Airport runway and is within the notification area of the AELUP for John Wayne Airport.
However, the Project is below the maximum transitional imagery surface heights, and
thus the project is within the building height limits of the AELUP. The property is located
within the 60dBA CNEL noise contours for John Wayne Airport and Safety Zone 6
(Traffic Pattern Zone), where the likelihood of an accident is low. Consistent with the
proposed residential overlay, the Project has been conditioned to provide notice to all
future residents of potential annoyances or inconveniences associated with residing in
proximity to airport operations. Also, a notice is required to be provided in the public park
and designated outdoor common and recreational areas advising of aircraft noise
6. The new construction complies with all Building, Public Works, Fire Codes, City
ordinances, and all conditions of approval.
Lot Line Adjustment
In accordance with Section 19.76.020 (Procedures for Lot Line Adjustments) of the NBMC, the
following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
A. Approval of the lot line adjustment will not, under the circumstances of the particular case,
be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, 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 general welfare of the City, and
52
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 17 of 43
further that the proposed lot line adjustment is consistent with the legislative intent of the
title.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The City of Newport Beach General Plan Land Use Designation of MU-H2 (Mixed Use
Horizontal 2) will be maintained for the two (2) proposed parcels involved.
2. The lot line adjustment is consistent with the purpose identified in Section 19.76 (Lot
Line Adjustments) of the NBMC. The lot line adjustment constitutes a minor boundary
adjustment involving the Property (Parcel 1) and the adjacent parcel (Parcel 2). The
original number of lots will remain unchanged after the adjustment.
3. The lot line adjustment does not negatively impact surrounding land owners, and will not
in itself be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, comfort, and general welfare of
persons residing or working in the Koll Center Newport business complex, as the
adjustment is necessary to align the subject property lines to be more in line with the
Project’s development boundaries.
Finding:
B. The number of parcels resulting from the lot line adjustment remains the same as before
the adjustment.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The proposed lot line adjustment will adjust the property lines between two (2)
contiguous parcels. The number of parcels remains the same as before the lot line
adjustment.
Finding:
C. The lot line adjustment is consistent with applicable zoning regulations except that nothing
herein shall prohibit the approval of a lot line adjustment as long as none of the resultant
parcels is more nonconforming as to lot width, depth and area than the parcels that existed
prior to the lot line adjustment.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 would remain within the PC15 Zoning District and no changes are
proposed to create more nonconforming as to lot area required by PC-15 than the
parcels that existed prior to the lot line adjustment.
2. The lot line adjustment allows the property lines of Parcel 1 to be consistent with
development footprints.
Finding:
53
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 18 of 43
D. Neither the lots as adjusted nor adjoining parcels will be deprived legal access as a result
of the lot line adjustment.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. There would be no changes proposed to Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 as both of these parcels
will maintain their existing legal accesses via existing driveways and internal street
within Office Site B.
Finding:
E. That the final configuration of the parcels involved will not result in the loss of direct vehicular
access from an adjacent alley for any of the parcels that are included in the lot line
adjustment.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. There are no public alleys adjacent to the proposed parcels; therefore, this finding does
not apply.
Finding:
F. That the final configuration of a reoriented lot does not result in any reduction of the street
side setbacks as currently exist adjacent to a front yard of any adjacent key, unless such
reduction is accomplished through a zone change to establish appropriate street site
setbacks for the reoriented lot. The Planning Commission and City Council in approving the
zone change application shall determine that the street side setbacks are appropriate, and
are consistent and compatible with the surrounding pattern of development and existing
adjacent setbacks.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The final configuration of the proposed parcels does not result in any reduction of the
street side setbacks as the adjustments are within the interior of the existing parcels in
question.
Traffic Study
In accordance with Section 15.40.030 (Standards for Approval—Findings—Exemptions) of
the NBMC, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
A. That a traffic study for the project has been prepared in compliance with this chapter and
Appendix A [NBMC Chapter 15.30],
54
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 19 of 43
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. A traffic study, entitled Residences at 4400 Von Kaman Analysis, prepared by Kimley-Horn
and Associates, Inc., dated October 2020, was prepared for the Project in compliance with
Municipal Code Chapter 15.40 (Traffic Phasing Ordinance and Appendix A).
Finding:
B. That, based on the weight of the evidence in the administrative record, including the traffic
study, one of the findings for approval in subsection (B) [NBMC Section 15.40.030(B)(1)]
can be made:
Section 15.40.030(B)(1) (Findings for Approval) of the NBMC states: Construction of the
project will be completed within sixty (60) months of project approval; and
a. The project will neither cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic service
at any impacted primary intersection, or
b. The project including circulation improvements that the project proponent is required to
make and/or fund, pursuant to a reimbursement program or otherwise, will neither cause
nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic service at any impacted primary
intersection, or
c. The project trips will cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic service at
one or more impacted primary intersection(s) but the project proponent is required to
construct and/or fund, pursuant to a reimbursement program or otherwise, circulation
improvements, or make contributions, such that:
1. The project trips will not cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic service
at any impacted primary intersection for which there is a feasible improvement, and
2. The benefits resulting from circulation improvements constructed or funded by, or
contributions to the preparation or implementation of a traffic mitigation study made
by, the project proponent outweigh the adverse impact of project trips at any
impacted primary intersection for which there is (are) no feasible improvement(s) that
would, if implemented, fully satisfy the provisions of Section 15.40.030 (B)(1)(b). In
balancing the adverse impacts and benefits, only the following improvements and/or
contributions shall be considered with the greatest weight accorded to the
improvements and/or contributions described in subparagraphs (a) and (b) below:
a. Contributions to the preparation of, and/or implementation of some or all of the
recommendations in, a traffic mitigation study related to an impacted primary
intersection that is initiated or approved by the City Council,
b. Improvements, if any, that mitigate the impact of project trips at any impacted
primary intersection for which there is (are) no feasible improvement(s) that, if
implemented, would satisfy the provisions of Section 15.40.030(B)(1)(b),
55
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 20 of 43
c.Improvements that mitigate the impacts of project trips on any impacted primary
intersection in the vicinity of the project,
d.Improvements that mitigate the impacts of project trips on any impacted primary
intersection operating, or projected to operate, at or above 0.80 ICU, or
d.The project complies with (1)(b) upon the completion of one or more circulation
improvements; and:
1.The time and/or funding necessary to complete the improvement(s) is (are) not
roughly proportional to the impacts of project-generated trips, and
2.There is a strong likelihood the improvement(s) will be completed within forty-eight
(48) months from the date the project and traffic study are considered by the Planning
Commission, or City Council on review or appeal. This finding shall not be made
unless, on or before the date of approval, a conceptual plan for each improvement
has been prepared in sufficient detail to permit estimation of cost and funding
sources for the improvement(s); the improvement(s) is (are) consistent with the
circulation element or appropriate amendments have been initiated; an account has
been established to receive all funds and contributions necessary to construct the
improvement(s) and the improvement is identified as one to be constructed pursuant
to the five year capital improvement plan and as specified in Appendix A, and
3.The project proponent pays a fee to fund construction of the improvement(s). The
fee shall be calculated by multiplying the estimated cost of the improvement(s) by a
fraction. The fraction shall be calculated by dividing the “effective capacity decrease”
in the impacted primary intersection attributable to project trips by the “effective
capacity increase” in the impacted primary intersection that is attributable to the
improvement. The terms “effective capacity increase” and “effective capacity
decrease” shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Appendix A.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1.Based on the weight of the evidence in the administrative record, including the Traffic Study,
and the conditions of approval, all of the findings for approval in Section 15.40.030(B)(1)(a)
can be made in that:
a.The Project is anticipated to be complete within 32-month period, well within the
60-month criteria. Therefore, the Traffic Study addresses the entire project
development.
b.The Traffic Study provides an evaluation of morning and evening peak hours at
25 existing intersections that are located in the City and the adjoining City of
Irvine, and two interstate free ramp intersections that are controlled and
maintained by the Caltrans.
56
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 21 of 43
c. The Project is projected to generate an additional 1,697 trips, 112 AM trips and
137 PM trips. When these trips distributed to these studied intersections, the
analysis concludes that there is no significant impact as the project will neither
cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of service at any impacted primary
intersection, and all intersections are forecasted to continue to operate at
acceptable Levels of Service.
Finding:
C.That the project proponent has agreed to make or fund the improvements, or make the
contributions, that are necessary to make the findings for approval and to comply with all
conditions of approval.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1.The development plans for the Project includes the recommended improvements to the
existing driveways and are included in the resolution of approval. The Project also will
be required for the payment of Fair Share fees in accordance with Chapter 15.32 that
will be used to fund future planned improvements to the City’s circulation system.
Additionally, the Project will be required to pay any applicable fees for the Major
Thoroughfare and Bridge Fee Program.
Affordable Housing Implementation Plan
The proposed Affordable Housing Implementation Plan (“AHIP”) is consistent with the intent to
implement affordable housing goals within the City pursuant to Government Code Sections
65915-65918 (State Density Bonus Law), and Title 20, Chapter 20.32 (Density Bonus) of the
NBMC for the following reasons:
1.Consistent with the requested twenty-percent density bonus, five percent (13 units) of
the project’s base units (260) would be set aside as affordable units to very-low income
households. Very-low income households are defined as households earning 50 percent
or less of the area median income, adjusted for family size for minimum term of 55 years.
2.The State Density Bonus Law and the City’s Density Bonus Code provide for an increase
in the number of units above General Plan and zoning limits for projects that include a
minimum of five percent of the base units affordable to very-low income households
earning 50 percent or less of area median income. The project’s inclusion of 13 very-
low income units, which is 5 percent of the General Plan limit of 260 units makes the
project eligible for 52 additional units making project total 312 of units.
3.In addition to the 52 density bonus units and pursuant to Government Code Section
65915(d)(1) and Section 20.32 (Density Bonus) of the NBMC, the Project is entitled to
receive one incentive or concession that would result in identifiable, financially sufficient,
and actual cost reductions. The project applicant includes requests a for one
development concession for the proposed affordable unit mix that does not meet NBMC
Section 20.32.070 (Design and Distribution of Affordable Units). NBMC Section
57
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2020-040
Page 22 of 43
20.32.070 requires affordable units in a density bonus project reflect the same range of
unit types in the residential development as a whole. In this case, the Project provides
a higher percentage of affordable studio units and fewer affordable two-bedroom units
compared to market rate units. Granting this incentive will result in identifiable, financially
sufficient, and actual project cost reductions by reducing the long-term rental subsidy
costs associated with the two-bedroom units and affording additional rental income for
the project to ensure financial feasibility.
Development Agreement
In accordance with Section 15.45.020.A.2.a (Development Agreement Required) of the NBMC,
a development agreement is required pursuant to General Plan Policy LU 6.15.12 as the project
requires a zoning code amendment that includes the development of more than fifty (50)
residential units, in this case a total of 260 infill residential units. The proposed development
agreement satisfies the requirements of Chapter 15.45 (Development Agreements) of the
NBMC as follows:
1.A development agreement is requested by the Applicant, as the Project would include a
total of 260 infill residential units allowed by the City’s General Plan and ICDP. The
development agreement includes all the mandatory elements including a term of 10
years and public benefits that are appropriate to support conveying the vested
development rights consistent with the City’s General Plan, the NBMC, and Government
Code Sections 65864 et seq.
2.Public benefits include the payment of a $500,000 public safety fee to satisfy any
obligation the Project could have to provide new emergency response services or Fire
Department equipment to serve the Airport Area whether a Community Facilities District
is formed or not. The Applicant has also agreed to pay a separate public benefit fee to
be used by the City Council as it deems appropriate.

PREFACE
It is the intent of this Planned Community Development to provide comprehensive zoning for what is
now the Collins Radio property Koll Center Newport while including provisions allowing for
residential development consistent with the City of Newport Beach General Plan and the
Integrated Conceptual Development Plan approved by the City of Newport Beach on December
10, 2010, within the Residential Overlay zone of Professional and Business Office Site B.
Residential uses are permitted in accordance with the provisions found in Part VI, herein.
Existing and planned uses within this development are include a hotel with banquet and convention
facilities, a small retail and service center, restaurants, a private club, the Orange County Courthouse
with the balance of the acreage developed as a business and professional office park emphasizing open
space. (34)

DEVELOPMENT CONSIDERATIONS (1) (34)
This Planned Community Development is a project of The Koll Company. This area is most
appropriate for commercial and light industrial uses, and residential where specifically permitted
therefore we submit the enclosed air traffic analysis, vehicular analysis, land use analysis and market
analysis to substantiate this document. Attached drawings indicate land use, grading and roads, storm
drains, water and sewer, topography and traffic analysis residential overlay zone, and pedestrian
connection diagram to Uptown Newport mixed-use development.
The site is comprised of approximately 154.0 acres and is generally bounded on the northeast by
Campus Drive, on the southeast by Jamboree Road and on the west by MacArthur Boulevard. (10)
(33)
In order to ensure development consistent with the master plan concept, a review shall be required.
Prior to the issuance of any building permits, a precise site development plan review application shall
be submitted by the developer to the Planning Community Development Director for review. The
precise plan application shall conform to the requirements of this Planned Community text and all
other applicable codes and regulations and shall be approved prior to submission by The Koll
Company. Included in the plan review material shall be:
1. Building Criteria
a. size
b. location
c. height
d. materials
e. number of residential units, if applicable
2. Parking Criteria
a. areas, including drives and accesses

5. All other information as required by the City or as directed by the Community
Development Director and as recommended below. Items 5a through 5e inclusive.
a. Sewage System Criteria
The sewer system in the vicinity of the lake should be revised to
conform to the following criteria:
1. All sewer lines should be located such that they will not be
under water even when the lake is at its maximum level.
2. Sewer lines shall be located in 15-foot wide (minimum)
easements and must be accessible to maintenance vehicles at
all times.
3. The depth of sewer lines should not exceed 15 feet, with the
possible exception of joining the existing system at MacArthur
Boulevard.
b. Pedestrian Circulation (34)
A pedestrian sidewalk system along the public streets shall be
constructed throughout the development. The adequacy of such system
shall be analyzed independently of any on-site pedestrian walkway
system proposed for a particular portion of the development. In
addition, connections between Uptown Newport and Koll Center
shall be consistent with the Integrated Conceptual Development

development. At the direction of the Director of Community
Development and the Director of Parks, Beaches and Recreation,
material lists and a street tree master plan shall be developed to aid in
this development.

shall be so placed that damage to trees, irrigation units and shrubs is
avoided.
M. Trees in parking lots should be limited in variety. Selection should be
repeated to give continuity. Regular spacing is not required and
irregular groupings may add interest. Care should be exercised to allow
plants to grow and maintain their ultimate size without restriction.
N. Storage areas are to be provided with an opaque screen up to a point of
eight (8) feet in vertical height. Combination of plantings can be used
to further soften hard materials and give continuity to planting.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION PLAN AND DENSITY BONUS APPLICATION
OCTOBER 26, 2020
Project Description & Affordability Level
TPG (KCN) Acquisition, LLC (“Picerne”) is proposing the 312 unit Residences at 4440 Von
Karman development (“Project”) on a site located in Planned Community Development Plan #15
(Koll Center Newport Planned Community). The Project site is irregularly shaped and is bounded
by Birch Street, Von Karman Avenue, and the existing surface parking lot for the Jazz
Semiconductor facility. Although the total Project site is approximately 13.0 acres, that is
inclusive of existing surface parking serving existing office buildings as well as a proposed
parking structure which is planned to replace existing surface parking on the residential
development site serving the existing office buildings. The net development area, including
parks, landscaped walkways, access drives, the replacement parking structure, and existing
parking totals approximately 8.7 acres. The balance of the Project site (approximately 4.3 acres)
consists of an existing access easement, parking lots, and offices.
The Newport Beach General Plan designates the Project site as Mixed-Use Horizontal 2 (MU-
H2) and the zoning is Planned Community 15, Koll Center (PC 15). The site is currently
developed as a surface parking lot serving existing office uses. Those parking spaces will be
replaced in a proposed parking structure to be located in the southeast corner of the Project site
as well as in the parking garage for the proposed residential Project. As part of the Project, Picerne
intends to develop and dedicate a 1.1-acre Public Park to the City of Newport Beach.
The Project is planned to consist of a total of 312 units: 260 units based on the current remaining
additive residential units (“Base” units) per the Airport Business Area Integrated Conceptual
Development Plan for Koll and Conexant Properties (“ICDP”) and 52 density bonus units (i.e.,
20% of the 260 Base units). In accordance with Government Code Section 65915, five percent
of the Base units (i.e., 13 units) will be made affordable to Very Low Income households. Very
Low Income households, as defined in California Health and Safety Code Section 50105, are
households earning 50 percent or less of area median income, adjusted for family size.
Eligibility for Density Bonus
Picerne will be providing 13 units (i.e. 5% of Base units) affordable to Very Low Income
households (“Very Low Income units”). This will comply with the provisions of Government
Code Section 65915 and Section 20.32 of the City’s Zoning Code applicable to a 20% density
bonus. Rents for the Very Low Income units will be computed in accordance with Health and

Density Bonus Computation and Term of Affordability
The density bonus computation for the Project per Government Code Section 65915 is shown
below:
Table 1
Density Bonus Computation
Picerne intends to operate the apartment Project as a rental community. The 13 Very Low
Income units will remain rent restricted for a minimum of 55 years, per Government Code
Section 65915(c)(1).
Reduction in Parking
The Project meets the criteria of subdivision (b) of Government Code Sec. 65915 and Section
20.32.030 of the City’s Zoning Code by providing at least five percent (5%) of the total units of
a housing development (excluding any units permitted by the density bonus awarded pursuant
to that section) for Very Low Income households.
Government Code Section 65915(p) and Section 20.32.040 of the City’s Zoning Code provide
the following:
(1) Upon the request of the developer, no city, county, or city and county shall
require a vehicular parking ratio, inclusive of handicapped and guest parking, of a
development meeting the criteria of subdivision (b), that exceeds the following
ratios:
a. Zero to one bedrooms: one onsite parking space.
b. Two to three bedrooms: two onsite parking spaces.
(2) If the total number of parking spaces required for a development is other than a
whole number, the number shall be rounded up to the next whole number. For
purposes of this subdivision, a development may provide “onsite parking” through
tandem parking or uncovered parking, but not through street parking.

Parking Requirements
Picerne requests that parking requirements be calculated in accordance with Government Code
Sec. 65915(p). The project is currently planning to provide 559 onsite parking spaces for its
residential units, subject to changes pending approval of final building plans.
Development Incentive Request
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65915(d)(1) and Section 20.32 of the City’s Zoning Code,
Picerne is entitled to one concession or incentive as a result of providing at least five percent (5%)
of the units as affordable for Very Low Income households. Picerne requests the following
development incentive:
Section 20.32.070 of the City’s Zoning Code provides that “Affordable units [in a density
bonus project] shall reflect the range of numbers of bedrooms provided in the residential
development project as a whole.” Picerne requests that the 13 Very Low Income units be

development as a whole:
Table 3
Unit Mix
As required by Government Code Sec. 65915(d)(1)(A), this incentive will result in additional
rental income for the Project as well as construction cost reductions for the affordable units,
which will enable the affordable rents to be set in accordance with Government Code Sec.
65915(c)(1).
Income Limits and Examples of Eligible Tenants for Affordable Homes
Very Low Income Households are defined as households whose gross income does not exceed
50% of area median income, adjusted for household size. Table 4 on the following page shows
the maximum income limits as determined by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”)
for Very Low Income households with household sizes appropriate for Residences at 4440 Von
Karman:
Table 4
Maximum Income Limits
Higher income limits apply to larger families of 6 or more persons; however those families are
not considered to be a target market for Residences at 4440 Von Karman, where the unit mix
consists of studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartment homes.

The Project’s 13 affordable homes will be rented to eligible Very Low Income households. As
shown in Table 4, Very Low Income households include incomes ranging from $44,850 per year
for a one-person household to $69,200 per year for a five-person household. As such this could
include service industry employees (waitresses, retail managers, hotel receptionists etc.), school
district employees, health care employees, and other occupations which provide needed services
to our community. While household size, overtime pay, summer jobs, or second jobs may affect
eligibility, the income limits above are reflective of pay to many public or health care sector
workers, as shown in Table 5 below:
Table 5
Examples of Qualifying Salaries
The pay ranges shown above are as of 2018 through 2020 (depending on source) and are subject
to periodic update. Retired persons or couples or young business professionals starting their
careers may also qualify to rent the affordable homes. In order to provide opportunities to workers
to live in one of the affordable homes, the City could provide guidelines providing for acceptance
of applications on a priority basis from classes of individuals who qualify under the income limits
in effect. The guidelines could provide for priority treatment for City employees, employees of
the local school district, and employees of major health care institutions or other categories
identified by the City for priority treatment.
Rental Rate Limits for Affordable Homes
The 13 Very Low Income units shall be rented at an affordable rent calculated in accordance with
the provisions of Section 50053 of the Health and Safety Code. Section 50053 of the Health and
Safety Code limits affordable rent to 30% of total income for a Very Low Income household, as
calculated in Table 6 below. That section also requires that the rent for a studio unit assumes a
one-person household for rent calculation purposes, a one-bedroom unit assumes a two-person
household, and a two-bedroom unit assumes a three-person household. The rents calculated are
then adjusted by a utility allowance as determined annually by the County of Orange Housing &
Position Pay Range

is $119.00 per month for a studio unit, $132.00 per month for a one-bedroom unit, and $171.00
per month for a two-bedroom unit. The utility allowance utilized assumes gas cooking, gas space
heating, gas water heating, as well as water, and sewer, and trash fees which will be paid by the
tenant.
Table 6
Maximum Rents by Bedroom Count
Picerne will enter into an affordable housing agreement, in recordable form, with the City prior
to obtaining the first building permit for any residential unit within the Project. That agreement
will ensure that the maximum rents for the affordable apartment homes will be calculated using
the methodologies as utilized in Table 6. The rental rates shown will be updated prior to the
commencement of rental activities and on an ongoing basis to reflect then current income limits,
utility allowances, and any changes in applicable regulations and statutes.
Unit Mix, Design, and Location of Affordable Homes
While the exact location of each of the affordable homes within the Residences at 4440 Von
Karman has not yet been determined, the affordable homes will be spread throughout the
development to avoid concentration of affordable homes in any area. The affordable homes
shall be comparable in the quality of construction and exterior design to the market rate homes.
The affordable homes will be marketed concurrently with the market rate homes and will be
released for occupancy roughly proportional to release of the market rate homes for occupancy.
All affordable homes will have access to the facilities and amenities offered by the
development.

1 INTRODUCTION
This Traffic Impact Study has been prepared to evaluate the potential traffic-related impacts associated
with the proposed Residences at 4400 Von Karman (“Project”). This report has been prepared in
accordance with the City of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) traffic impact study
requirements, County of Orange Congestion Management Program (CMP) requirements, and in support
of the environmental documentation for the Project, per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
requirements.
This analysis has been undertaken to analyze whether the proposed Residences at 4400 Von Karman
Project would result in any new or substantially more severe significant environmental impacts as
compared to the conclusions in the City of Newport Beach General Plan Update Final Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) (2006). The purpose of this analysis is to document whether any new traffic-related
impacts would occur compared to the City’s General Plan EIR, based on the proposed Project (described
below) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15164.
2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Project Location
The project site is located at the southeast corner1 of Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue in the Airport
Area of the City of Newport Beach. A vicinity map is provided on Figure 1. The approximately 13.00-acre
site is relatively flat at an approximate elevation of 46 to 52 feet above mean sea level (msl).
The project site is an irregularly shaped property generally bordered by Birch Street to the northeast, Von
Karman Avenue to the west, and existing office uses and associated surface parking lots and parking
structures to the east and south within Koll Center Newport. The Property currently provides a common
pool of structured and surface parking to serve office tenants within the Koll Center Newport. Koll Center
Newport is an approximately 154-acre mixed-use development area generally bordered on the northeast
by Campus Drive, on the southeast by Jamboree Road, and on the west by MacArthur Boulevard.
Regional access to the site is from State Route 73 (SR-73) via Jamboree Road to the south and
Interstate 405 (I-405) via Jamboree Road to the north. Vehicular access to the site is provided from
Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue. Currently, there are three driveways on Birch Street and two
driveways on Von Karman Avenue.
The site is approximately 0.5 mile southwest of John Wayne Airport, 0.5-mile northwest of the San Joaquin
Freshwater Marsh Reserve, and 1.5 miles northwest of the University of California, Irvine (UCI).
1 As shown on Figure 1, the streets adjacent to the project site are oriented on a diagonal. For purposes of this report, Jamboree
Road, MacArthur Boulevard, and Von Karman Avenue are considered to be the north-south streets, and Birch Street is an
east-west street.

2.2 Existing Land Uses and Access
The project site is located within the surface parking areas serving the existing Koll Center Newport office
park. Proximate to the project site, Koll Center Newport consists of general office buildings with surface
parking and a parking structure; the parking structure is for the 5000 Birch office building. The existing
office buildings located within the boundaries of the project site (4440 Von Karman, 4490 Von Karman,
and 4910 Birch), or immediately contiguous to the site (5000 Birch, 4340 Von Karman, and 4350 Von
Karman) are not a part of the proposed development. Access to Koll Center Newport is currently provided
by two driveways on Von Karman Avenue, and three driveways on Birch Street. All driveways are currently
unsignalized and gated. The existing Koll Center Newport site is shown on Figure 2.
2.3 Proposed Project and Access
The proposed Project would allow for 312 residential apartments with structured parking, a 0.5-acre
public park, a free-standing parking structure, and the reconfiguration of some of the existing parking
areas. The 312 apartment units would include 299 market-rate units and 13 very-low income affordable
units. The Project would include 55 studio units, 149 one-bedroom units, and 108 two-bedroom units.
The residential building is proposed as a five-story podium building with three levels of structured parking
(one level on-grade and two levels below ground). The proposed 0.5-acre public park would be centrally
located to the project site and would be approximately equidistant from Birch Street and Von Karman
Avenue. The conceptual site plan is shown on Figure 3.
As noted, access to the Koll Center Newport is currently provided via three driveways on Birch Street and
two driveways on Von Karman Avenue. Upon completion of the proposed Project, access to the project
site, as well as existing office buildings, would be provided via two full-movement locations on Birch Street
and one full-movement location on Von Karman Avenue.
To allow for the construction of the proposed Project, some of the existing surface parking areas and the
common landscape areas would be demolished. All residential parking would be provided in the
residential building’s parking structure. Office parking displaced by the Project would be provided in a
new, free-standing parking structure, in the residential building’s parking structure, and surface parking.
Visitors to the publicly-accessible park can use surface parking east of the residential building. The Project
will provide 565 parking spaces for its residential units and 626 parking spaces for office uses, including
275 parking spaces in the free-standing parking structure.

3.1 Study Area
This traffic analysis provides an evaluation of morning and evening peak hour intersection at 25
intersections. The study intersections consist of a combination of intersections in the City of Newport
Beach and the adjoining City of Irvine. The study area and study intersection list reflect input received
from the cities of Newport Beach and Irvine. The locations of the study intersections are shown on
Figure 4. Of the 25 study intersections, 8 are controlled and maintained by the City of Irvine and 15 are
controlled and maintained by the City of Newport Beach. The two Interstate 405 (I-405) freeway ramp
intersections at Jamboree Road are controlled and maintained by the California Department of
Transportation (Caltrans).

Each intersection has been analyzed using the methodology and parameters employed by the city in which
the intersection is located. For “shared” intersections on the city boundary, the intersection analysis is
based on the methodology used by the City that controls and maintains the signal.
3.2 Analysis Methodology
Intersection analysis for all signalized intersections has been conducted using the Intersection Capacity
Utilization (ICU) methodology, which is the methodology utilized by both cities, as well as the Orange
County Congestion Management Program (CMP). Intersections that are located at an Interstate Highway
intersection are also analyzed in accordance with Caltrans requirements, using a separate methodology,
as discussed later in this report.
The ICU methodology provides a comparison of the theoretical hourly vehicular capacity of an intersection
to the number of vehicles actually passing through that intersection during any given hour. The ICU
calculation assumes an hourly per-lane capacity for each lane through the intersection, and a clearance
factor to account for the effect of yellow and red signal phases.
Variations in analysis input parameters between the cities of Newport Beach and Irvine have been
accounted for in the analysis. The following presents the ICU parameters for each of the cities.

1 Right-turn-on-red is allowed from exclusive right-turn lanes. For the City of Irvine, "unofficial" right-turn lanes (known as a de facto right-
turn lane) are assumed in the ICU calculation if 19 feet of travel lane exists from lane stripe to edge of roadway, and curbside parking is
prohibited during peak periods.
2 ATMS is an advanced traffic signal management system employed by the City of Irvine to allow the control of signal operations in real-time
response to traffic conditions at the intersection. Intersections with the ATMS equipment installed are given a 0.05 capacity credit. The
ATMS credit is not applied to intersections located within the Irvine Business Complex (IBC). One study intersection (Univers ity Drive at
Campus Drive) has the ATMS equipment installed. The ATMS credit is applied in all study scenarios.
Intersection analysis for unsignalized intersections has been conducted using the Highway Capacity
Manual (HCM) methodology, which returns a delay value, expressed in terms of the average seconds of
delay per vehicle.
Operating conditions for both ICU and HCM methodologies are expressed in terms of “Level of Service”
which is also referred to by its acronym, LOS. The ICU calculation returns a volume-to-capacity (V/C) ratio
that translates into a corresponding Level of Service, ranging from LOS A, representing uncongested, free-
flowing conditions; to LOS F, representing congested, over-capacity conditions.

A summary description of each Level of Service and the corresponding V/C ratio or delay is provided
below.
LEVEL OF SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS
Level of
Service
Signalized:
ICU
Unsignalized:
HCM 1
Description V/C Ratio Delay (sec)
A 0.00 - 0.60 ≤10 EXCELLENT – No vehicle waits longer than one red light, and no
approach phase is fully used.
B 0.61 - 0.70 > 10 and ≤ 15 VERY GOOD – An occasional approach phase is fully utilized; drivers
begin to feel somewhat restricted within groups of vehicles.
C 0.71 - 0.80 > 15 and ≤ 25 GOOD – Occasionally, drivers may have to wait through more than
one red light; back-ups may develop behind turning vehicles.
D 0.81 - 0.90 > 25 and ≤ 35
FAIR – Delays may be substantial during portions of the rush hours,
but enough lower volume periods occur to permit clearing of
developing lines, preventing excessive back-ups.
E 0.91 - 1.00 > 35 and ≤ 50
POOR – Represents the most vehicles that the intersection
approaches can accommodate; may be long lines of waiting
vehicles through several signal cycles.
F > 1.00 > 50
FAILURE – Back-ups from nearby locations or on cross streets may
restrict or prevent movement of vehicles out of the intersection
approaches. Tremendous delays with continuously increasing
queue lengths.

3.4 Significance Thresholds
City of Newport Beach
To determine whether the addition of project-generated trips at a signalized study intersection results in
a significant impact, the City of Newport Beach has adopted the following thresholds of significance:
▪A significant impact would occur when the addition of project-generated trips causes the Level of
Service at a study intersection to deteriorate from an acceptable (LOS D, except for intersections
on a CMP facility, or designated intersections in the Airport Area, where LOS E is acceptable) to a
deficient Level of Service.
▪A significant impact would occur when the addition of project-generated trips increases the ICU
at a study intersection by one percent or more (v/c increases by 0.010 or more), worsening a
projected baseline condition of LOS E or F.
For unsignalized intersections operating at an unacceptable Level of Service, a signal warrant analysis will
be conducted to determine if a signal is warranted. The signal warrant analysis will be conducted
according to the California Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
City of Irvine
All of the study intersections in the City of Irvine are signalized. To determine whether the addition of
project-generated trips at a signalized study intersection results in a significant impact, the City of Irvine
has adopted the following significance threshold:
162
Residences at 4400 Von Karman
City of Newport Beach Traffic Impact Study
Page | 15
▪A significant impact would occur when the intersection exceeds the acceptable Level of Service
(LOS D except for intersections located in the IBC or on a CMP facility, where LOS E is acceptable)
in the baseline condition and the impact of the development is greater than or equal to two
percent (v/c increase by 0.02 or more), or;
▪The Project increases the ICU by one percent or more (v/c increases by 0.01 or more) at a study
intersection, causing it to become deficient.
Caltrans
A separate analysis of the Intersection Highway intersections using the analysis methodology and
significance thresholds specified in the Caltrans Guide for the Preparation of Traffic Impact Studies is
provided in a separate section of this report.

5 EXISTING TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
5.1 Existing Traffic Volumes
Field observations of all study intersections were conducted to document the number of through and
turning lanes, traffic control, and other existing traffic conditions at each intersection. Existing lane
configurations and intersection traffic control at the study intersections are shown on Figure 6.
Existing morning and evening peak hour intersection turning movement counts were provided by the
cities of Newport Beach and Irvine. Intersection counts that were not provided by either city were
collected in either 2018 or 2019. The traffic counts provided by the cities of Newport Beach and Irvine
were conducted between 2017 and 2019. For City of Newport Beach intersections, traffic counts older
than one year have been grown at 1 percent per year on certain major roadways, per direction from City
staff, to grow the counts to Year 2020. For City of Irvine intersections, traffic counts were grown at 2
percent per year, based on direction from City staff, to grow the counts to Year 2020. The resulting peak
hour turning movement volumes are shown on Figure 7. Copies of peak hour traffic data collection sheets
are provided in Appendix A.
5.2 Existing Intersection Analysis
Peak hour intersection analysis was conducted for the signalized study intersections using the applicable
intersection analysis methodology and parameters for each city, as discussed previously in this report.
Unsignalized intersections were analyzed using the HCM methodology for unsignalized intersections.
Existing AM and PM peak hour intersection operations are summarized on Table 1. All study intersections
are currently operating at an acceptable Level of Service (LOS D for all intersections, except LOS E for
intersections in the Airport Area or the IBC area, and CMP intersections). Intersection Level of Service
worksheets are provided in Appendix B.

S = Signalized; U = Unsignalized; ICU = Intersection Capacity Utilization; LOS = Level of Service
Bold and shaded values indicate intersections operating at LOS E or F per City standards.
For signalized intersections, intersection operation is expressed in volume-to-capacity (V/C) ratio using the ICU methodology. For unsignalized
intersections, LOS is expressed in average seconds of delay per peak hour vehicle, based on the methodology outlined in the 2010 Highway
Capacity Manual.
* Level of Service E is acceptable at this intersection.
1 A 5% capacity credit is applied at this intersection to reflect implementation of the Advanced Transportation Management System (ATMS)

6 PROPOSED PROJECT TRAFFIC
6.1 Project Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the proposed Project were developed using the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (10th Edition) publication. The proposed project components and
trip generation estimates for the Residences at 4400 Von Karman are as follows:
▪Multifamily Housing (Mid-Rise) (Land Use 221)
Daily, morning peak hour, and evening peak hour trip generation estimates for the proposed Project are
shown on Table 2. The Project (312 units) would generate approximately 1,697 daily trips, with 112
morning peak hour trips (29 inbound and 83 outbound) and 138 evening peak hour trips (84 inbound and
54 outbound).
The project site is located in traffic analysis zone (TAZ) 1405 of the Newport Beach Traffic Model (NBTM).
The City of Newport Beach General Plan Transportation Study (March 2006) includes 128 apartment units.
Because the Project proposes 312 multi-family rental units, the Post-2030 General Plan Buildout With
Project scenario adds 184 additional multi-family units.

analyses. Trip generation for Post-2030 General Plan Buildout With Project is shown on Table 10.
6.2 Project Trip Distribution and Assignment
Project trip distribution assumptions for the project site were developed based on likely origins and
destinations of project residents and visitors, and the transportation network available for those trips.
Distribution assumptions were submitted to City staff for review and concurrence. Trip distribution
assumptions for the Project are shown on Figure 8. The resulting project-related traffic volumes at each
study intersection are shown on Figure 9.

7 FUTURE CONDITIONS
The project Opening Year is Year 2024. Per the City’s TPO analysis guidelines, the Future Year analysis is
one year after Opening Year, therefore Year 2025 was used in the Future Conditions analysis. Near-term
future traffic forecasts have been developed for two analysis conditions:
▪Future Year with Existing plus Growth plus Committed Projects, representing analysis of the
conditions required by the City of Newport Beach Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO)
▪Future Year with Existing plus Growth plus Committed plus Cumulative Projects, as required by
CEQA.
A discussion of each is provided in the following sections.
7.1 Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) Analysis
The City of Newport Beach TPO first requires a determination of whether project trips will increase traffic
volumes on any leg of a Primary Intersection by one percent (1%) or more during either the morning or
evening peak hour one year after project completion, or that portion of the Project expected to be
constructed within five years (sixty months) of project approval, which would be Year 2025. The TPO then
requires a Level of Service analysis of the project impact at any Primary Intersection that exceeds the
one percent threshold.
For TPO purposes, traffic forecasts for study intersections in the City of Newport Beach are developed by
applying an ambient growth rate of one percent per year on primary roadways (Jamboree Road,
MacArthur Boulevard and Irvine Avenue), plus traffic from Committed Projects in the vicinity of the
project site. For study intersections in the City of Irvine, a growth factor of two percent per year is applied
to develop Year 2025 forecasts.
Committed projects consist of projects in the City of Newport Beach that have been approved but are not
yet fully constructed and occupied. Committed Projects information was provided by the City of Newport
Beach Staff. A copy of the Approved Projects data sheets provided by the City of Newport Beach is
included in Appendix C. A summary of the Newport Beach Committed Projects is provided on Table 3.
Traffic volumes generated by the Committed Projects in the study area were added to existing peak hour
volumes plus ambient growth to develop the TPO Analysis Year 2025 forecast traffic volumes. The
resulting peak hour traffic volumes are shown on Figure 10.

TPO 1% Analysis
In accordance with City of Newport Beach traffic study requirements, the project traffic contribution at
the Primary Intersections was evaluated to determine the extent of the Traffic Impact Study required of
the Project. The Primary Intersections identified through the 1% Analysis will be evaluated for the LOS
Analysis.
For the TPO Analysis, the project-related morning and evening peak hour traffic volumes were compared
to the TPO Analysis Year 2025 Without Project peak hour volumes on each leg of each Primary Intersection
to determine whether the Project would result in a 1 percent increase. The results of the analysis are
summarized on Table 4. The 1% Analysis Worksheets for the TPO Analysis are provided in Appendix D.
Table 4 shows that the project traffic will exceed 1 percent on at least one approach in one or both peak
hours at each of the Newport Beach Primary Intersections, except at the following intersections:
6. Von Karman Avenue at Campus Drive
12. Jamboree Road at Campus Drive

The analysis will proceed with a TPO Traffic Impact Study at the remaining Newport Beach Primary
Intersections. It should be noted that the 1% Analysis was not conducted for the study intersections
entirely in the City of Irvine because the TPO requirement only applies to the City of Newport Beach
Primary Intersections. All study intersections in the City of Irvine, including study intersections located on
the border of Irvine and Newport Beach, have been analyzed for all study scenarios in this report.

7.2 CEQA Analysis
CEQA requires that a Cumulative Conditions analysis be conducted. The Cumulative Conditions analysis
includes traffic from Cumulative Projects in the vicinity of the project site.
Cumulative Projects consist of the Committed Projects (approved projects in the City of Newport Beach),
as well as other projects that are in various stages of the application and approval process but have not
yet been approved. These projects are considered to be “reasonably foreseeable” projects and must
therefore be analyzed for CEQA purposes. The Cumulative Projects list includes the projects identified by
the City of Newport Beach as Committed Projects, plus pending projects in the City of Newport Beach, as
well as approved and pending projects in the City of Irvine. A summary of Cumulative Projects is provided
on Table 7. The location of the Cumulative Projects in relation to the project site is shown on Figure 12.
Cumulative Projects information and data provided by the City of Newport Beach and the City of Irvine
are provided in Appendix C.
The CEQA Cumulative Conditions analysis was conducted for the following scenarios:
▪CEQA Analysis Year 2025 Without Project
▪CEQA Analysis Year 2025 With Project
Future Year Cumulative Conditions peak hour traffic volumes for the City of Newport Beach intersections
were developed by adding an ambient growth rate of one percent per year to existing volumes on primary
roadways and then adding peak hour traffic volumes from both the Committed and Cumulative Projects.
For the City of Irvine intersections, City of Irvine transportation planning staff provided peak hour traffic
forecasts from the Irvine Traffic Analysis Model (ITAM) which is maintained and operated by the City of
Irvine. The ITAM forecasts include the effects of ambient traffic growth and traffic from Cumulative
Projects; the ITAM forecasts are in Appendix C. ITAM forecasts represent year 2023 traffic volumes;
therefore, City of Irvine staff recommended applying a growth factor of 2 percent per year to develop
Year 2025 forecasts. The westbound approach at the intersection of Jamboree Road at Birch Street will
be widened to one left-turn lane, one shared left-through lane, and a dedicated right-turn lane to account
for the traffic generated by the UCI North Campus Child Health. The modified westbound approach was a
recommended improvement in the UCI North Campus Child Health Traffic Study.
CEQA Analysis Year 2025 Without Project
CEQA Analysis Year 2025 Without Project peak hour traffic volumes for all study intersections are shown
on Figure 13. CEQA Analysis Year 2025 Without Project intersection operations are summarized in Table 8.
All study intersections are forecasted to operate at an acceptable Level of Service in both peak hours with
the exception of the following:
10. Jamboree Road at I-405 SB Ramps: AM – LOS F; PM – LOS F
11.Jamboree Road at Michelson Drive: PM – LOS F

CEQA Analysis Year 2025 With Project
In this scenario, project-related peak hour traffic volumes were added to the CEQA Analysis Year 2025
Without Project traffic volumes. The resulting CEQA Analysis Year 2025 With Project peak hour volumes
are shown on Figure 14, and the resulting intersection operations are summarized on Table 9. The
following intersections would continue to operate at a deficient Level of Service under CEQA Analysis Year
2025 With Project conditions:
10. Jamboree Road at I-405 SB Ramps: AM – LOS F; PM – LOS F
11. Jamboree Road at Michelson Drive: PM – LOS F
Based on the significance criteria set forth in this traffic study, the Project’s incremental increase does not
exceed the significance threshold at the deficient intersections and would not result in a significant impact
with the addition of project trips. All other intersections would operate at an acceptable Level of Service
in both peak hours.

8 GENERAL PLAN COMPARISON
A comparison analysis has been conducted to determine whether the proposed Residences at 4400 Von
Karman (“Project”) would result in any new or substantially more significant environmental impacts as
compared to the conclusions discussed in the City of Newport Beach General Plan Transportation Study
(March 2006). The project is located in traffic analysis zone (TAZ) 1405 of the Newport Beach Traffic Model
(NBTM), used in the 2006 General Plan traffic analysis. The NBTM TAZ 1405 consists of 128 Apartment
units, 128,610 square feet of general commercial and 695,157 square feet of office. The “Residences at
4400 Von Karman” project proposes 312 apartment units. To provide a conservative analysis, the traffic
from the additional 184 units (312 units–128 units) were added on to Post-2030 General Plan Buildout
traffic to determine 2030 General Plan Buildout With Project traffic. The following study scenarios were
analyzed for the comparison analysis:
▪Post-2030 General Plan Buildout 1
▪Post-2030 General Plan Buildout With Project 2
1 This scenario assumes the following quantities for NBTM TAZ 1405, where the project site is located: 128 apartment units, 128,610 square
feet of general commercial use, and 695,137 square feet of office use
2 This “With Project” scenario assumes an additional 184 dwelling units (delta) to NBTM TAZ 1405, for a total of 312 dwelling units, as
proposed by the Project.
The Post-2030 General Plan Buildout With Project ICU was compared with the Post-2030 General Plan
Buildout ICU at the following study intersections analyzed in the 2006 General Plan Transportation Study:
1 MacArthur Boulevard at Campus Drive
2 MacArthur Boulevard at Birch Street
3 MacArthur Boulevard at Von Karman Avenue

Daily, morning peak hour, and evening peak hour trip generation estimates for the proposed Project are
shown on Table 10. The Project (184 additional units) would generate approximately 1,001 daily trips,
with 66 morning peak hour trips (17 inbound and 49 outbound) and 81 evening peak hour trips (49
inbound and 32 outbound).

by the Project.
The Post-2030 General Plan Buildout and Post-2030 General Plan Buildout With Project volumes are
shown on Figure 15 and Figure 16, respectively. Excerpts from the 2006 General Plan Transportation Study
are provided in Appendix H. The results of the Post-2030 General Plan Buildout Plus Project ICU compared
to the Post-2030 General Plan Buildout ICU shown in the General Plan Transportation Study and are shown
on Table 11. Based on this comparison, the proposed Project would not result in any new traffic related
impacts compared to those identified in the 2006 City of Newport Beach General Plan Transportation
Study. The proposed Project would not result in a significant Project impact at the study locations;
therefore, no mitigation measures at the study locations are required.

9 OTHER ISSUES
9.1 ANALYSIS OF INTERSTATE HIGHWAY FACILITIES
Intersections on Interstate Highway Facilities
Intersections on Interstate Highway facilities, which are controlled by Caltrans, are also analyzed using the
Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) methodology, as required by the Caltrans Guide for the Preparation of
Traffic Impact Studies (State of California Department of Transportation, December 2002). In the vicinity
of the project, the I-405 and SR-73 freeways are Caltrans facilities. Therefore, the following study were
analyzed using the HCM intersection analysis methodology:
9. Jamboree Road at I-405 NB Ramps
10. Jamboree Road at I-405 SB Ramps
The HCM methodology measures average seconds of delay per vehicle based on a number of technical
parameters, such as peak hourly traffic volumes, number of lanes, type of signal operation, signal timing,
and signal phasing in the calculations. A description of each Level of Service, based on delay parameters,
per the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) is provided in the chart on the following page.
For State-controlled intersections, Level of Service standards and impact criteria specified by Caltrans will
apply. The Caltrans Guide for the Preparation of Traffic Impact Studies states that “Caltrans endeavors to
maintain a target Level of Service at the transition between LOS C and LOS D on State highway facilities.
If an existing Interstate highway facility is operating at less than the target LOS, the existing Level of Service
is to be maintained.”
Traffic Impact Criteria
The Caltrans Guide for the Preparation of Traffic Impact Studies does not establish a threshold of
significance for Interstate Highway intersections. This traffic analysis uses the following traffic threshold
of significance:
•A significant project impact occurs at an Interstate Highway study intersection when the addition
of project-generated trips causes the peak hour level of service of the study intersection to change
from acceptable operation (LOS A, B, or C) to deficient operation (LOS D, E, or F).

LEVEL OF SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS
Level of
Service
Signalized
Intersection
Delay (sec)
Description
A ≤10
LOS A describes operations with a control delay of 10 seconds per vehicle or less
and a volume-to-capacity ratio no greater than 1.0. This level is typically assigned
when the volume-to-capacity ratio is low and either progression is exceptionally
favorable, or the cycle length is very short. If it is due to favorable progression, most
vehicles arrive during the green indication and travel through the intersection
without stopping.
B > 10 and ≤ 20
LOS B describes operations with control delay between 10 and 20 seconds per
vehicle and a volume-to-capacity ratio no greater than 1.0. This level is typically
assigned when the volume-to-capacity ratio is low and either progression is
exceptionally favorable, or the cycle length is short. More vehicles stop t han with
LOS A.
C > 20 and ≤ 35
LOS C describes operations with control delay between 20 and 35 seconds per
vehicle and a volume-to-capacity ratio no greater than 1.0. This level is typically
assigned when the progression is favorable, and the cycle length is moderate.
Individual cycle failures (i.e., one or more queued vehicles are not able to depart as
a result of insufficient capacity during the cycle) may begin to appear at this level.
The number of vehicles stopping is significant, although many v ehicles still pass
through the intersection without stopping.
D > 35 and ≤ 55
LOS D describes operations with control delay between 35 and 55 seconds per
vehicle and a volume-to-capacity ratio no greater than 1.0. This level is typically
assigned when the volume-to-capacity ratio is high and either progression is
ineffective, or the cycle length is long. Many vehicles stop and individual cycle
failures are noticeable.
E > 55 and ≤ 80
LOS E describes operations with control delay between 55 and 80 seconds per
vehicle and a volume-to-capacity ratio no greater than 1.0. This level is typically
assigned when the volume-to-capacity ratio is high, progression is unfavorable, and
the cycle length is long. Individual cycle failures are frequent.

Interstate Highway Intersection Analysis
Peak hour intersection analysis was conducted using the HCM methodology for the following Interstate
Highway study intersections:
9. Jamboree Road at I-405 NB Ramps
10. Jamboree Road at I-405 SB Ramps
Intersection analysis worksheets for all HCM analysis of Interstate Highway intersections are provided in
Appendix E.
Existing Conditions
Existing peak hour intersection operations for the Interstate Highway study intersections are summarized
on Table 11. Each of the Interstate Highway study intersections currently operates at an acceptable Level
of Service using the HCM delay analysis methodology.
CEQA Analysis Year 2025 Without Project
CEQA Analysis Year 2025 Without Project peak hour operation for the Interstate Highway study
intersections are summarized on Table 11, previously referenced. The intersection of Jamboree Road at
the I-405 Southbound Ramps would operate at LOS D in the morning peak hour under CEQA Analysis Year
2025 Without Project conditions.
CEQA Analysis Year 2025 With Project
CEQA Analysis Year 2025 With Project peak hour operation for the Interstate Highway study intersections
are summarized on Table 11, previously referenced. With the addition of project traffic, the intersection
of Jamboree Road at the I-405 Southbound Ramps would continue to operate at LOS D in the morning
peak hour. The project traffic would not cause the Level of Service at this intersection to worsen, and
therefore would not result in a significant impact. The intersection of Jamboree Road at the I-405
Northbound Ramps would continue to operate at an acceptable Level of Service.

9.2 CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM COMPLIANCE
The Orange County Congestion Management Program (CMP) was established in 1991, to reduce traffic
congestion and to provide a mechanism for coordinating land use and development decisions. Compliance
with CMP requirements ensures a city’s eligibility to compete for State gas tax funds for local
transportation projects.
A copy of the County of Orange CMP Highway System is provided in Appendix F. Within the project study
area, the CMP Highway System includes two arterials: Jamboree Road north of MacArthur Boulevard, and
MacArthur Boulevard south of Jamboree Road. CMP intersections in the vicinity of the Project consist of:
4. MacArthur Boulevard at Jamboree Road
9. Jamboree Road at I-405 Northbound Ramps
10. Jamboree Road at I-405 Southbound Ramps
The Orange County CMP states that “a TIA will be required for CMP purposes for all proposed
developments generating 2,400 or more daily trips,” and that “for developments which will directly access
a CMP Highway System link, the threshold for requiring a TIA should be reduced to 1,600 or more trips
per day.
The Project is estimated to generate approximately 1,697 daily trips but does not directly access a CMP
Highway System Link. Base on CMP criteria, a separate CMP analysis is not required of the Project.
9.3 SITE ACCESS AND SITE CIRCULATION
Vehicular access to Koll Center Newport is currently provided by three driveways on Birch Street, and two
driveways on Von Karman Avenue. Cross access throughout the site currently allows drivers to access any
parking area within Koll Center Newport from any of the site driveways. All driveways are unsignalized
and gated. Drivers access the site either by a key card or by pressing the button and pulling a parking
ticket. To exit the site, key card users use their card to raise the gate. Visitors must insert a validated ticket
or pay at the gate in order to exit.
For discussion purposes, the driveways have been numbered 1 through 5, as shown on Figure 17. The
following provides a brief description of each of the existing driveways.
Existing Driveway 1: The westernmost driveway on Birch Street is located approximately 300 feet east of
Von Karman Avenue, and is a full-movement driveway. It is 30 feet wide and provides one inbound lane
and one outbound lane. The entry gate on Driveway 1 is set back approximately 95 feet from Birch Street.
This driveway leads directly to a surface parking area at the north end of the Koll Center Newport site.
Existing Driveway 2: The middle driveway on Birch Street is located approximately 600 feet east of Von
Karman Avenue, and is a full-movement driveway. It is 36 feet wide, and provides one inbound lane and
one outbound lane, with a narrow, raised median. The entry gate is set back approximately 165 feet from
Birch Street. This driveway intersects with the spine street that runs through the Koll Center Newport site
and connects Von Karman Avenue and Birch Street in an east-west orientation.

Existing Driveway 3: The eastern driveway on Birch Street is located approximately 1,100 feet east of Von
Karman Avenue and approximately 750 feet west of Jamboree Road and is a full-movement driveway. It
is 36 feet wide and provides one inbound lane and one outbound lane. Driveway 3 is connected to Teller
Avenue. This driveway connects in a T-intersection to the spine street approximately 85 feet from Birch
Street. Entry gates are located on the main spine street, approximately 50 feet to the west, and
approximately 100 feet to the east of the T-intersection.
Existing Driveway 4: The northern driveway on Von Karman Avenue is located approximately 350 feet
south of Birch Street and is an exit-only driveway. It is approximately 15 feet wide, and provides one
outbound lane only, from which drivers can make both left and right turns.
Existing Driveway 5: The southern driveway on Von Karman Avenue is located approximately 900 feet
south of Birch Street and is a full-movement driveway. It is 36 feet wide and provides one inbound and
one outbound lane. The entry gate is set back approximately 90 feet from Von Karman Avenue. This
driveway is the western end of the spine street that connects Von Karman Avenue and Birch Street in an
east-west orientation.
As part of the proposed Project, the five existing site driveways for Koll Center Newport will remain in
their current locations, with several changes to the access provisions for the site, as follows:
▪The main drive aisle that runs from Von Karman Avenue to Birch Street will become an open-
access internal street through the site. All gates to the Koll Center Newport parking areas and to
the new residential buildings will be located off the internal street.
▪A free-standing parking structure will be constructed prior to construction of the residential
building. This parking structure will be provided for office users because of surface parking
removed as a part of the Project. When completed, the parking structure will provide 275 spaces
for office uses.
▪Access to the residential parking will be via a gated entrance directly off the spine street, which
will be accessible from Driveways 2, 3, and 5.
The following addresses any changes proposed as a part of the Project:
Driveway 1 With Project: No changes are proposed for Driveway 1. However, as a part of the Project,
office parking displaced by the Project would be provided in the residential building’s parking structure,
in a new, free-standing parking structure, and in surface parking areas. An entry to the residential parking
structure for office parking would be provided near the 4910 Birch Street office building using this
driveway.
Driveway 2 With Project: The entry gate on Driveway 2 will be removed. A gated entry to the residential
portion of the residential development parking structure will be provided off Driveway 2. Drivers entering
Driveway 2 will be able to access all parking areas of Koll Center Newport, except the surface parking areas
immediately accessed by Driveway 1. Driveway 2 will be reconfigured to provide one inbound lane and
two outbound lanes, with one left-turn and one right-turn lane.

Driveway 3 With Project: The Koll Center Newport entry gates on the main drive aisle on either side of
Driveway 3 will be removed. A new office parking gate for the parking areas to the east of the driveway
will be provided approximately 80 feet to the southeast. Drivers entering Driveway 3 will be able to access
all parking areas of Koll Center Newport, except the surface parking areas immediately accessed by
Driveway 1.
Driveway 4 With Project: Driveway 4 will remain an exit-only driveway and will be accessible only from
the surface parking areas immediately accessed by Driveway 1. Outbound movements will be restricted
to right turns only.
Driveway 5 With Project: The entry gate on Driveway 5 will be removed. A new office parking gate for the
parking areas to the east of the driveway will be provided on the first intersecting drive aisle. Driveway 5
will be reconfigured to provide one inbound lane and two outbound lanes, with one left-turn and one
right-turn lane.
9.4 CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC
Construction of the proposed Project would add construction-related trips to and from the site during
construction activities. These trips are associated with construction activities, including construction
workers, grading, and construction of structures and site features.
Large construction equipment such as bulldozers, loaders, scrapers, and pavers would be required during
various construction phases. Large equipment is generally brought to the site at the start of the
construction phase and kept on site until its term of use ends. A staging area would be designated on-site
to store construction equipment and supplies during construction.
Throughout construction, the size of the work crew reporting to the site each day would vary depending
on the construction phase and the different activities taking place at the time. Parking for workers would
be provided on-site during all phases of construction. Construction workers will not be allowed to park on
local streets. If needed during the peak construction periods, off-site parking will be provided, and workers
will carpool or be shuttled to the worksite. The Applicant will be required to prepare a Parking
Management Plan for construction parking.
The Applicant will be required to prepare a construction management plan to identify the timing of
construction activities, and the movement of construction vehicles. There will be no dirt hauling activities
allowed to and from the site during the peak hours during any of the construction phases.
Construction Phasing
Free-Standing Parking Structure
Construction of the free-standing parking structure requires the demolition of approximately 106 surface
parking spaces and associated landscaping. A free-standing, 275-stall parking structure would be
constructed prior to breaking ground on the remainder of the Project in order to replace surface parking
temporarily and permanently displaced by site development. The parking structure would have three
levels of above-ground parking, including rooftop parking. Construction activities are anticipated to occur
over an approximate six-month timeframe.
222
Residences at 4400 Von Karman
City of Newport Beach Traffic Impact Study
Page | 75
Residential Structure
Upon completion of the free-standing parking structure, approximately 443 surface parking spaces would
be demolished to allow for the construction of the Project. At the completion of this phase of the Project,
there would be 1,645 parking spaces with parking for the Project residences and guests, as well as 275
spaces in the structure for office users.
The proposed Project’s site grading and foundation excavation would require the removal of
approximately 112,000 cubic yards (cy) of material. It is anticipated that all 112,000 cy will be exported
from the site. Construction activities are anticipated to occur over a 24-month time period.
The Project includes the demolition of 75 additional surface parking spaces to allow for the
reconfiguration of on-site surface parking and access. No grading is assumed. Construction activities
would run concurrently with the residential structure over an approximate 3-month time period.
Construction Traffic Management
Heavy vehicles associated with construction of the Project would use the existing regional and local truck
route network to approach the site, getting as close to the destination site as possible before turning off
the designated truck route. Impacts from construction traffic would be occasional and temporary delays
to traffic, during the movement of heavy equipment or transport of heavy loads to and from the site.
The Applicant will be required to provide a construction management plan, and to identify planned travel
patterns for haul vehicles, and obtain a Haul Route Permit from the City. Approach and departure routes
for construction vehicles will be via Jamboree Road, MacArthur Boulevard, Von Karman Avenue and Birch
Street. Depending on the origin/destination (the nearest landfill, or the deposit site identified for cut
material), trucks will either arrive and depart via I-405, to the north of the site; or via SR-73, to the south
of the site. No heavy vehicle traffic will be permitted during peak commute hours.
10 CONCLUSIONS
A comparison analysis has been conducted to determine whether the proposed Residences at 4400 Von
Karman (Project) would result in any new significant environmental impacts as compared to the
conclusions discussed in the City of Newport Beach General Plan Transportation Study (March 2006).
Based on the comparison analysis, the proposed Project would not result in any new traffic-related
impacts compared to those identified in the City of Newport Beach 2006 General Plan Transportation
Study. The Traffic Impact Study finds that the traffic-related potential impacts associated with the
proposed Project would either be the same or not substantially greater than those described in the 2006
General Plan Update EIR.

this Agreement; (ii) such earlier date that this Agreement may be terminated in accordance with
Articles 5, and 7, and/or Section 8.3 of this Agreement and/or Sections 65865.1 and/or 65868 of
the Development Agreement Statute; or (iii) completion of the Project in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, including Developer’s complete satisfaction, performance, and
payment, as applicable, of all Development Exactions, the issuance of all required final
occupancy permits, and acceptance by City or applicable public agency(ies) or private entity(ies)
of all required offers of dedication.
Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, the
provisions set forth in Article 10 and Section 14.11 (as well as any other Developer obligations
set forth in this Agreement that are expressly written to survive the Termination Date) shall
survive the Termination Date of this Agreement.
3. Public Benefits.
3.1 Public Benefit Fee.
As consideration for City’s approval and performance of its obligations set forth in this
Agreement, Developer shall pay to City a fee in the amount of Seven Million Dollars Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($7,500,000.00) which shall be in addition to any other
fee or charge to which the Property and the Project would otherwise be subject.
Of the Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($7,500,000.00), the
Developer shall pay Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($6,500,000.00) of
the Public Benefit Fee to the City within five (5) days of the Effective Date of the Agreement.
The Developer shall pay the second installment of the Public Benefit Fee in the amount of One
Million Dollars and 00/100 ($1,000,000.00) to the City at the time the first building permit is
issued for the residential portion of the Project.
The City has not designated a specific project or purpose for the Public Benefit Fee
except as provided in Section 3.1.1 below. Developer acknowledges by its approval and
execution of this Agreement that it is voluntarily agreeing to pay the Public Benefit Fee and the
fees identified in Section 3.2 below, that its obligation to pay the Public Benefit Fee or the fees in
Section 3.2 is an essential term of this Agreement and is not severable from City’s obligations
and Developer’s vested rights to be acquired hereunder, and that Developer expressly waives any
constitutional, statutory, or common law right it might have in the absence of this Agreement to
protest or challenge the payment of the Public Benefits identified in this Section 3.1 on any
ground whatsoever, including without limitation pursuant to the Fifth and Fourteenth
234
9
Amendments to the United States Constitution, California Constitution Article I Section 19, the
Mitigation Fee Act (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq.), or otherwise. In
addition to any other remedy set forth in this Agreement for Developer’s default, if Developer
shall fail to timely pay any portion of the Public Benefits identified in this Section 3.1 when due,
City shall have the right to withhold issuance of any further building permits, occupancy permits,
or other development or building permits for the Project.
3.1.1 Public Benefit Fee Allocation.
The City Council retains sole and absolute discretion to determine how Six Million
Dollars and 00/100 ($6,000,000.00) of the Public Benefit Fee provided in Section 3.1 shall be
allocated and no final decisions have been made as of the Agreement Date. In light of the City’s
commitment to housing issues, the City agrees to use the remaining One Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($1,500,000.00) Public Benefit Fee as follows: (i) Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($500,000.00) of the Public Benefit Fee shall be used, at the City’s
discretion, to support the City’s ongoing homeless shelter or permanent supportive housing
efforts; and (ii) One Million Dollars and 00/100 ($1,000,000.00) shall be placed in a separate
affordable housing fund and used, at the City’s discretion, for the development of future,
speculative, affordable housing projects in the City (no specific project is contemplated).
3.2 Other Public Benefits. In addition to the Public Benefit Fee, the direct and
indirect benefits City expects to receive pursuant to this Development Agreement are as follows:
3.2.1 Park Land and Improvements. The park land dedication requirement for the Project
pursuant to the City General Plan Land Use Policy 6.15.13 is approximately one (1) acre. City
acknowledges that Developer's performance of its obligations as set forth in this section satisfies
all of Developer's General Plan, Quimby Act and Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 19.52
(Park Dedication and Fees) obligations governing park land dedication and fees. City
acknowledges that Developer is eligible to receive credit against the payment of fees or
dedication of land consistent with the General Plan. As of the Effective Date, the established fair
market value for one (1) acre of land used in assessing in-lieu of park dedication fees equals Two
Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($2,500,000). Developer fees and credit
shall be based on the established Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars and 00/100
($2,500,000) per acre. Based upon the obligations provided herein, Developer agrees to construct
and improve a one (1) acre park within the Property pursuant to the Development Plan.
Developer shall offer the one (1) acre park to the City for dedication in fee simple and City shall
accept Developer’s offer of dedication provided that the park has been completed in accordance
with the Development Plan. The park shall be privately maintained by Developer in perpetuity
and in accordance with the Development Plan as set forth in a separate written maintenance and
license agreement approved as to form by the City Attorney.
3.2.2 Public Safety Fee. Developer shall pay a public safety fee in the amount of Five
Hundred Thousand Dollars and 00/100 ($500,000.00) to be used, at City’s discretion, to fund the
cost of staffing, services and equipment as necessary for fire related public safety purposes. The
fee shall be paid at the time the first building permit is issued for the residential portion of the
Project.
235
10
3.2.4 Consumer Price Index (CPI) Increases. Any fee provided in this Section 3 (Public
Benefit) shall be increased based upon percentage increases in the CPI Index as provided herein.
The first CPI adjustment shall occur on the third anniversary of the City Council’s adoption of
the Adopting Ordinance (the first “Adjustment Date”) and subsequent CPI adjustments shall
occur on each anniversary of the first Adjustment Date thereafter until expiration of the Term of
this Agreement (each, an “Adjustment Date”). The amount of the CPI adjustment on the first
Adjustment Date shall be the percentage increase in the CPI Index between the second
anniversary of the City Council’s adoption of the Adopting Ordinance and the third anniversary
of the City Council’s adoption of the Adopting Ordinance. The amount of the CPI adjustment on
each subsequent Adjustment Date shall be the percentage increase between said Adjustment Date
and the immediately preceding Adjustment Date. The amount of the percentage increase in the
CPI Index on the applicable Adjustment Dates shall in each instance be calculated based on the
then most recently available CPI Index figures such that, for example, if the first Adjustment
Date occurs on September 1, 2020, and the most recently available CPI Index figure on that date
is the CPI Index for July 2020 (2 months prior to the first Adjustment Date), the percentage
increase in the CPI Index on the first Adjustment Date shall be calculated by comparing the CPI
Index for July 2019 with the CPI Index for July 2020. In no event, however, shall application of
the CPI Index on any Adjustment Date reduce the amount of any fee provided in this Section 3
(Public Benefit) (or unpaid portion thereof) below the amount in effect prior to that Adjustment
Date.
4. Development of Project.
4.1 Applicable Regulations; Developer’s Vested Rights and City’s Reservation of
Discretion With Respect to Subsequent Development Approvals.
Other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, during the Term of this Agreement,
(i) Developer shall have the vested right to Develop the Project on and with respect to the
Property in accordance with the terms of the Development Regulations and this Agreement and
(ii) City shall not prohibit or prevent development of the Property on grounds inconsistent with
the Development Regulations or this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein
is intended to limit or restrict the City’s discretion with respect to (i) those review and approval
requirements contained in the Development Regulations, (ii) the exercise of any discretionary
authority City retains under the Development Regulations, (iii) the approval, conditional
approval, or denial of any Subsequent Development Approvals that are required for
Development of the Project as of the Effective Date, or (iv) any environmental approvals that
may be required under CEQA or any other federal or state law or regulation in conjunction with
any Subsequent Development Approvals that may be required for the Project, and in this regard,
as to future actions in connection with the Subsequent Development Approvals, the City reserves
its full discretion to the same extent that it would have such discretion in the absence of this
Agreement. In addition, it is understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement is intended to
vest Developer’s rights with respect to any laws, regulations, rules, or official policies of any
other (i.e., non-City) governmental agency or public utility company with jurisdiction over the
Property or the Project; or any applicable federal or state laws, regulations, rules, or official
policies that may be inconsistent with this Agreement and that override or supersede the
provisions set forth in this Agreement, and regardless of whether such overriding or superseding
laws, regulations, rules, or official policies are adopted or applied to the Property or the Project
prior or subsequent to the Agreement Date.
236
11
Developer has expended and will continue to expend substantial amounts of time and
money planning and preparing for Development of the Project. Developer represents, and City
acknowledges, that Developer would not make these expenditures without this Agreement, and
that Developer is and will be making these expenditures in reasonable reliance upon its vested
rights to Develop the Project as set forth in this Agreement.
Developer may apply to City for permits or approvals necessary to modify or amend the
Development specified in the Development Regulations, without amending this Agreement,
provided that the request does not propose an increase in the maximum density, intensity, height,
or size of proposed structures, or a change in use that generates more peak hour traffic or more
daily traffic and, in addition, Developer may apply to City for approval of minor amendments to
the existing tentative tract map, if any, or associated conditions of approval, consistent with City
of Newport Beach Municipal Code Section 19.12.090. This Agreement does not constitute a
promise or commitment by City to approve any such permit or approval, or to approve the same
with or without any particular requirements or conditions, and City's discretion with respect to
such matters shall be the same as it would be in the absence of this Agreement.
4.2 No Conflicting Enactments.
Except to the extent City reserves its discretion as expressly set forth in this Agreement,
during the Term of this Agreement City shall not apply to the Project or the Property any
ordinance, policy, rule, regulation, or other measure relating to Development of the Project that
is enacted or becomes effective after the Effective Date to the extent it conflicts with this
Agreement or Developer consents in writing. This Section 4.2 shall not restrict City’s ability to
enact an ordinance, policy, rule, regulation, or other measure applicable to the Project pursuant to
California Government Code Section 65866 consistent with the procedures specified in Section
4.3 of this Agreement. In Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal.3d 465,
the California Supreme Court held that a construction company was not exempt from a city’s
growth control ordinance even though the city and construction company had entered into a
consent judgment (tantamount to a contract under California law) establishing the company’s
vested rights to develop its property consistent with the zoning. The California Supreme Court
reached this result because the consent judgment failed to address the timing of development.
The Parties intend to avoid the result of the Pardee case by acknowledging and providing in this
Agreement that Developer shall have the vested right to Develop the Project on and with respect
to the Property at the rate, timing, and sequencing that Developer deems appropriate within the
exercise of Developer’s sole subjective business judgment, provided that such Development
occurs in accordance with this Agreement and the Development Regulations, notwithstanding
adoption by City’s electorate of an initiative to the contrary after the Effective Date. No City
moratorium or other similar limitation relating to the rate, timing, or sequencing of the
Development of all or any part of the Project and whether enacted by initiative or another
method, affecting subdivision maps, building permits, occupancy certificates, or other
entitlement to use, shall apply to the Project to the extent such moratorium or other similar
limitation restricts Developer’s vested rights in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the
express provisions of this Agreement.
237
12
4.3 Reservations of Authority.
Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, the laws,
rules, regulations, and official policies set forth in this Section 4.3 shall apply to and govern the
Development of the Project on and with respect to the Property.
4.3.1 Procedural Regulations. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement,
procedural regulations relating to hearing bodies, petitions, applications, notices, findings,
records, hearings, reports, recommendations, appeals, and any other matter of procedure shall
apply to the Property, provided that such procedural regulations are adopted and applied City-
wide or to all other properties similarly situated in City.
4.3.2 Processing and Permit Fees. City shall have the right to charge, and
Developer shall be required to pay, all applicable processing and permit fees to cover the
reasonable cost to City of processing and reviewing applications and plans for any required
Subsequent Development Approvals, building permits, excavation and grading permits,
encroachment permits, and the like, for performing necessary studies and reports in connection
therewith, inspecting the work constructed or installed by or on behalf of Developer, and
monitoring compliance with any requirements applicable to Development of the Project, all at
the rates in effect at the time fees are due.
4.3.3 Consistent Future City Regulations. City ordinances, resolutions,
regulations, and official policies governing Development which do not conflict with the
Development Regulations, or with respect to such regulations that do conflict, where Developer
has consented in writing to the regulations, shall apply to the Property.
4.3.4 Development Exactions Applicable to Property. During the Term of this
Agreement, Developer shall be required to satisfy and pay all Development Exactions at the time
performance or payment is due to the same extent and in the same amount(s) that would apply to
Developer and the Project in the absence of this Agreement. City shall not alter, increase, or
modify said Development Exaction in a manner that is inconsistent with this Agreement, the
Project’s conditions of approval, or the Development Regulations without Developer’s prior
written consent or as may be otherwise required pursuant to overriding federal or state laws or
regulations (Section 4.3.5 below). In addition, nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be
deemed to vest Developer against the obligation to pay any of the following (which are not
included within the definition of “Development Exactions”) in the full amount that would apply
in the absence of this Agreement: (i) City’s normal fees for processing, environmental
assessment and review, tentative tract and parcel map review, plan checking, site review and
approval, administrative review, building permit, grading permit, inspection, and similar fees
imposed to recover City’s costs associated with processing, reviewing, and inspecting project
applications, plans, and specifications, including CEQA review; (ii) fees and charges levied by
any other public agency, utility, district, or joint powers authority, regardless of whether City
collects those fees and charges; or (iii) community facility district special taxes or special district
assessments or similar assessments, business license fees, bonds or other security required for
public improvements, transient occupancy taxes, sales taxes, property taxes, sewer lateral
connection fees, water service connection fees, new water meter fees, and the Property
Development Tax payable under Section 3.12 of Newport Beach Municipal Code.
238
13
4.3.5 Overriding Federal and State Laws and Regulations. Federal and state
laws and regulations that override Developer’s vested rights set forth in this Agreement shall
apply to the Property, together with any City ordinances, resolutions, regulations, and official
policies that are necessary to enable City to comply with the provisions of any such overriding
federal or state laws and regulations, provided that (i) Developer does not waive its right to
challenge or contest the validity of any such purportedly overriding federal, state, or City law or
regulation; and (ii) upon the discovery of any such overriding federal, state, or City law or
regulation that prevents or precludes compliance with any provision of this Agreement, City or
Developer shall provide to the other Party a written notice identifying the federal, state, or City
law or regulation, together with a copy of the law or regulation and a brief written statement of
the conflict(s) between that law or regulation and the provisions of this Agreement. Promptly
thereafter, City and Developer shall meet and confer in good faith in a reasonable attempt to
determine whether a modification or suspension of this Agreement, in whole or in part, is
necessary to comply with such overriding federal, state, or City law or regulation. In such
negotiations, City and Developer agree to preserve the terms of this Agreement and the rights of
Developer as derived from this Agreement to the maximum feasible extent while resolving the
conflict. City agrees to cooperate with Developer at no cost to City in resolving the conflict in a
manner which minimizes any financial impact of the conflict upon Developer. City also agrees
to process in a prompt manner Developer’s proposed changes to the Project and any of the
Development Regulations as may be necessary to comply with such overriding federal, state, or
City law or regulation; provided, however, that the approval of such changes by City shall be
subject to the discretion of City, consistent with this Agreement.
4.3.6 Public Health and Safety. Any City ordinance, resolution, rule, regulation,
program, or official policy that is necessary to protect persons on the Property or in the
immediate vicinity from conditions dangerous to their health or safety, as reasonably determined
by City, shall apply to the Property, even though the application of the ordinance, resolution, rule
regulation, program, or official policy would result in the impairment of Developer’s vested
rights under this Agreement.
4.3.7 Uniform Building Standards. Existing and future building and building-
related standards set forth in the building standard codes adopted and amended by City from
time-to-time, including building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, housing, swimming pool, and
fire codes, and any modifications and amendments thereof shall all apply to the Project and the
Property to the same extent that the same would apply in the absence of this Agreement.
4.3.8 Public Works Improvements. To the extent Developer constructs or
installs any public improvements, works, or facilities, the City standards in effect for such public
improvements, works, or facilities at the time of City’s issuance of a permit, license, or other
authorization for construction or installation of same shall apply.
4.3.9 No Guarantee or Reservation of Utility Capacity. Notwithstanding any
other provision set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement is intended
or shall be interpreted to require City to guarantee or reserve to or for the benefit of Developer or
the Property any utility capacity, service, or facilities that may be needed to serve the Project,
whether domestic or reclaimed water service, sanitary sewer transmission or wastewater
treatment capacity, downstream drainage capacity, or otherwise, and City shall have the right to
limit or restrict Development of the Project if and to the extent that City reasonably determines
239
14
that inadequate utility capacity exists to adequately serve the Project at the time Development is
scheduled to commence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, City covenants to provide utility
services to the Project on a non-discriminatory basis (i.e., on the same terms and conditions that
City undertakes to provide such services to other similarly situated new developments in the City
of Newport Beach as and when service connections are provided and service commences).
4.4 Tentative Subdivision Maps.
City agrees that Developer may file and process new and existing vesting tentative maps
for the Property consistent with California Government Code sections 66498.1-66498.9 and City
of Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 19.20 (Vesting Tentative Maps). Developer agrees
that filing and issuance of a new subdivision map may trigger additional development impact
fees. Pursuant to the applicable provision of the California Subdivision Map Act (California
Government Code section 66452.6(a)), the life of any tentative subdivision map approved for the
Property, whether designated a “vesting tentative map” or otherwise, shall be extended for the
Term of this Agreement.
5. Amendment or Cancellation of Agreement.
This Agreement may be amended or canceled in whole or in part only by mutual written
and executed consent of the Parties in compliance with California Government Code Section
65868 and Newport Beach Municipal Code Section 15.45.070 or by unilateral termination by
City in the event of an uncured default of Developer.
5.1 Extension.
The City Council may approve further extensions beyond the term upon written request
from the Developer.
6. Enforcement.
Unless amended or canceled pursuant to California Government Code Section 65868,
Newport Beach Municipal Code Section 15.45.070, or modified or suspended pursuant to
Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 15.45 or California Government Code Section 65869.5,
and except as otherwise provided in subdivision (b) of Section 65865.3, this Agreement shall be
enforceable by either Party despite any change in any applicable general or specific plan, zoning,
subdivision, or building regulation or other applicable ordinance or regulation adopted by City
(including by City’s electorate) that purports to apply to any or all of the Property.
7. Annual Review of Developer’s Compliance With Agreement.
7.1 General.
City shall review this Agreement once during every twelve (12) month period following
the Effective Date for compliance with the terms of this Agreement as provided in Government
Code section 65865.1. Developer (including any successor to the owner executing this
Agreement on or before the date of the Adopting Ordinance) shall pay City a reasonable fee in
an amount City may reasonably establish from time-to-time to cover the actual and necessary
240
15
costs for the annual review. City’s failure to timely provide or conduct an annual review shall
not constitute a Default hereunder by City.
7.2 Developer Obligation to Demonstrate Good Faith Compliance.
During each annual review by City, Developer is required to demonstrate good faith
compliance with the terms of the Agreement. Developer agrees to furnish such evidence of good
faith compliance as City, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, may require, thirty (30)
calendar days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date during the Term.
7.3 Procedure.
The Zoning Administrator shall conduct a duly noticed hearing and shall determine, on
the basis of substantial evidence, whether or not Developer has, for the period under review,
complied with the terms of this Agreement. If the Zoning Administrator finds that Developer
has so complied, the annual review shall be concluded. If the Zoning Administrator finds, on the
basis of substantial evidence, that Developer has not so complied, written notice shall be sent to
Developer by first class mail of the Zoning Administrator’s finding of non-compliance, and
Developer shall be given at least ten (10) calendar days to cure any noncompliance that relates to
the payment of money and thirty (30) calendar days to cure any other type of noncompliance. If
a cure not relating to the payment of money cannot be completed within thirty (30) calendar days
for reasons which are beyond the control of Developer, Developer must commence the cure
within such thirty (30) calendar days and diligently pursue such cure to completion. If
Developer fails to cure such noncompliance within the time(s) set forth above, such failure shall
be considered to be a Default and City shall be entitled to exercise the remedies set forth in
Article 8 below.
7.4 Annual Review a Non-Exclusive Means for Determining and Requiring Cure of
Developer’s Default.
The annual review procedures set forth in this Article 7 shall not be the exclusive means
for City to identify a Default by Developer or limit City’s rights or remedies for any such
Default.
8. Events of Default.
8.1 General Provisions.
In the event of any material default, breach, or violation of the terms of this Agreement
(“Default”), the Party alleging a Default shall deliver a written notice (each, a “Notice of
Default”) to the defaulting Party. The Notice of Default shall specify the nature of the alleged
Default and a reasonable manner and sufficient period of time (twenty (20) calendar days if the
Default relates to the failure to timely make a monetary payment due hereunder and not less than
thirty (30) calendar days in the event of non-monetary Defaults) in which the Default must be
cured (“Cure Period”). During the Cure Period, the Party charged shall not be considered in
Default for the purposes of termination of this Agreement or institution of legal proceedings. If
the alleged Default is cured within the Cure Period, then the Default thereafter shall be deemed
not to exist. If a non-monetary Default cannot be cured during the Cure Period with the exercise
of commercially reasonable diligence, the defaulting Party must promptly commence to cure as
241
16
quickly as possible, and in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after it receives the
Notice of Default, and thereafter diligently pursue said cure to completion. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the City is not required to give Developer notice of default and may immediately
pursue remedies for a Developer Default that result in an immediate threat to public health,
safety or welfare.
8.2 Default by Developer.
If Developer is alleged to have committed Default and it disputes the claimed Default, it
may make a written request for an appeal hearing before the City Council within ten (10)
calendar days of receiving the Notice of Default, and a public hearing shall be scheduled at the
next available City Council meeting to consider Developer’s appeal of the Notice of Default.
Failure to appeal a Notice of Default to the City Council within the ten (10) calendar day period
shall waive any right to a hearing on the claimed Default. If Developer’s appeal of the Notice of
Default is timely and in good faith but after a public hearing of Developer’s appeal the City
Council concludes that Developer is in Default as alleged in the Notice of Default, the accrual
date for commencement of the thirty (30) calendar day Cure Period provided in Section 8.1 shall
be extended until the City Council’s denial of Developer’s appeal is communicated to Developer
in writing.
8.3 City’s Option to Terminate Agreement.
In the event of an alleged Developer Default, City may not terminate this Agreement
without first delivering a written Notice of Default and providing Developer with the opportunity
to cure the Default within the Cure Period, as provided in Section 8.1, and complying with
Section 8.2 if Developer timely appeals any Notice of Default. A termination of this Agreement
by City shall be valid only if good cause exists and is supported by evidence presented to the
City Council at or in connection with a duly noticed public hearing to establish the existence of a
Default. The validity of any termination may be judicially challenged by Developer. Any such
judicial challenge must be brought within sixty (60) calendar days of service on Developer, by
first class mail, postage prepaid, of written notice of termination by City or a written notice of
City’s determination of an appeal of the Notice of Default as provided in Section 8.2.
8.4 Default by City.
If Developer alleges a City Default and alleges that the City has not cured the Default
within the Cure Period, Developer may pursue any legal or equitable remedy available to it,
including, without limitation, an action for a writ of mandamus, injunctive relief, or specific
performance of City’s obligations set forth in this Agreement. Upon a City Default, any
resulting delays in Developer’s performance hereunder shall neither be a Developer Default nor
constitute grounds for termination or cancellation of this Agreement by City and shall, at
Developer’s option (and provided Developer delivers written notice to City within thirty (30)
calendar days of the commencement of the alleged City Default), extend the Term for a period
equal to the length of the delay.
8.5 Waiver.
Failure or delay by any Party in delivering a Notice of Default shall not waive that
Party’s right to deliver a future Notice of Default of the same or any other Default.
242
17
8.6 Specific Performance Remedy.
Due to the size, nature, and scope of the Project, it will not be practical or possible to
restore the Property to its pre-existing condition once implementation of this Agreement has
begun. After such implementation, both Developer and City may be foreclosed from other
choices they may have had to plan for the development of the Property, to utilize the Property or
provide for other benefits and alternatives. Developer and City have invested significant time
and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the
terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in
implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement. It is not possible to
determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Developer or City for such
efforts. For the above reasons, except as set forth in Section 8.7, City and Developer agree that
damages would not be an adequate remedy if either City or Developer fails to carry out its
obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, except as set forth in Section 8.7, specific
performance of this Agreement is necessary to compensate Developer if City fails to carry out its
obligations under this Agreement or to compensate City if Developer falls to carry out its
obligations under this Agreement.
8.7 Monetary Damages.
The Parties agree that monetary damages shall not be an available remedy for any Party
for a Default hereunder by the other Party; provided, however, that (i) nothing in this Section 8.7
is intended or shall be interpreted to limit or restrict City’s right to recover the Public Benefit
Fees due from Developer as set forth herein; and (ii) nothing in this Section 8.7 is intended or
shall be interpreted to limit or restrict Developer’s indemnity obligations set forth in Article 10
or the right of the prevailing Party in any Action to recover its litigation expenses, as set forth in
Section 8.10. In no event shall damages be awarded against the City upon an event of default or
upon termination of this Agreement. Developer expressly agrees that the City, any City agencies
and their respective elected and appointed councils, boards, commissions, officers, agents,
employees, volunteers and representatives (collectively, for purposes of this Section 8.7, “City”)
shall not be liable for any monetary damage for a Default by the City or any claims against City
arising out of this Agreement. Developer hereby expressly waives any such monetary damages
against the City. The sole and exclusive judicial remedy for Developer in the event of a Default
by the City shall be an action in mandamus, specific performance, or other injunctive or
declaratory relief.
8.8 Additional City Remedy for Developer’s Default.
In the event of any Default by Developer, in addition to any other remedies which may be
available to City, whether legal or equitable, City shall be entitled to receive and retain any
Development Exactions applicable to the Project or the Property, including any fees, grants,
dedications, or improvements to public property which it may have received prior to Developer’s
Default without recourse from Developer or its successors or assigns.
8.9 No Personal Liability of City Officials, Employees, or Agents.
No City official, employee, or agent shall have any personal liability hereunder for a
Default by City of any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement.
243
18
8.10 No Recovery of Legal Expenses by Prevailing Party in Any Action.
In any judicial proceeding, arbitration, or mediation (collectively, an “Action”) between
the Parties that seeks to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or arises out of this Agreement,
the prevailing Party shall not recover any of its costs and expenses, regardless of whether they
would be recoverable under California Code of Civil Procedure section 1033.5 or California
Civil Code section 1717 in the absence of this Agreement. These costs and expenses include, but
are not limited to, court costs, expert witness fees, attorneys’ fees, City staff costs (including
overhead), and costs of investigation and preparation before initiation of the Action.
9. Force Majeure.
No Party shall be deemed to be in Default where failure or delay in performance of any
of its obligations under this Agreement is caused, through no fault of the Party whose
performance is prevented or delayed, by floods, earthquakes, other acts of God, fires, wars, riots
or similar hostilities, strikes or other labor difficulties, state or federal regulations, or court
actions. Except as specified above, nonperformance shall not be excused because of the act or
omission of a third person. In no event shall the occurrence of an event of force majeure operate
to extend the Term of this Agreement. In addition, in no event shall the time for performance of
a monetary obligation, including without limitation Developer’s obligation to pay Public Benefit
Fees, be extended pursuant to this Section.
10. Indemnity Obligations of Developer.
10.1 Indemnity Arising From Acts or Omissions of Developer.
Except to the extent caused by the intentional misconduct or gross negligent acts, errors
or omissions of City or one (1) or more of City’s officials, employees, agents, attorneys, and
contractors (collectively, the “City’s Affiliated Parties”), Developer shall indemnify, defend, and
hold harmless City and City’s Affiliated Parties from and against all suits, claims, liabilities,
losses, damages, penalties, obligations, and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable
attorneys’ fees and costs) (collectively, a “Claim”) that may arise, directly or indirectly, from the
acts, omissions, or operations of Developer or Developer’s agents, contractors, subcontractors,
agents, or employees in the course of Development of the Project or any other activities of
Developer relating to the Property or Project, or pursuant to this Agreement. City shall be
entitled to retain separate counsel to represent City against the Claim and the City’s reasonable
defense costs for its separate counsel shall be included in Developer’s indemnity obligation,
provided that such counsel shall reasonably cooperate with Developer in an effort to minimize
the total litigation expenses incurred by Developer. In the event either City or Developer
recovers any attorney’s fees, expert witness fees, costs, interest, or other amounts from the party
or parties asserting the Claim, Developer shall be entitled to retain the same (provided it has fully
performed its indemnity obligations hereunder). The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.1
shall commence on the Agreement Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and
shall survive the Termination Date.
10.2 Third Party Litigation.
In addition to its indemnity obligations set forth in Section 10.1, Developer shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City’s Affiliated Parties from and against any
244
19
Claim against City or City’s Affiliated Parties seeking to attack, set aside, void, or annul the
approval of this Agreement, the Adopting Ordinance, any of the Development Regulations for
the Project (including without limitation any actions taken pursuant to CEQA with respect
thereto), any Subsequent Development Approval, or the approval of any permit granted pursuant
to this Agreement (including without limitation any actions taken pursuant to CEQA with respect
thereto). Said indemnity obligation shall include payment of reasonable attorney’s fees, expert
witness fees, City staff costs (including overhead), and court costs. City shall promptly notify
Developer of any such Claim and City shall cooperate with Developer in the defense of such
Claim. Developer shall not be responsible to indemnify, defend, and hold City harmless from
such Claim until Developer is so notified and if City fails to cooperate in the defense of a Claim
Developer shall not be responsible to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City during the
period that City so fails to cooperate or for any losses attributable thereto. City shall be entitled
to retain separate counsel to represent City against the Claim and the City’s reasonable defense
costs for its separate counsel shall be included in Developer’s indemnity obligation, provided
that such counsel shall reasonably cooperate with Developer in an effort to minimize the total
litigation expenses incurred by Developer. In the event either City or Developer recovers any
attorney’s fees, expert witness fees, costs, interest, or other amounts from the party or parties
asserting the Claim, Developer shall be entitled to retain the same (provided it has fully
performed its indemnity obligations hereunder). No settlement of any Claim against City or
City’s Affiliated Parties shall be executed without the written consent of both the City and
Developer. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.2 shall commence on the Agreement
Date, regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date.
10.3 Environmental Indemnity.
In addition to its indemnity obligations set forth in Section 10.1, from and after the
Effective Date Developer shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City and City’s Affiliated
Parties from and against any and all Claims for personal injury or death, property damage,
economic loss, statutory penalties or fines, and damages of any kind or nature whatsoever,
including without limitation reasonable attorney’s fees, expert witness fees, and costs, based
upon or arising from any of the following: (i) the actual or alleged presence of any Hazardous
Substance on or under any of the Property in violation of any applicable Environmental Law; (ii)
the actual or alleged migration of any Hazardous Substance from the Property through the soils
or groundwater to a location or locations off of the Property; and (iii) the storage, handling,
transport, or disposal of any Hazardous Substance on, to, or from the Property and any other area
disturbed, graded, or developed by Developer in connection with Developer’s Development of
the Project. The indemnity provisions in this Section 10.3 shall commence on the Effective Date
occurs, and shall survive the Termination Date.
11. Assignment.
Owner and Developer shall have the right to sell, transfer, or assign (hereinafter, collectively, a
“Transfer”) Developer’s interest in or fee title to the Property, in whole or in part, to a “Permitted
Transferee” (which successor, as of the effective date of the Transfer, shall become the
“Developer” under this Agreement) at any time from the Agreement Date until the Termination
Date; provided, however, that no such Transfer shall violate the provisions of the Subdivision
Map Act (Government Code Section 66410 et seq.) or City’s local subdivision ordinance and
any such transfer shall include the assignment and assumption of Developer’s rights, duties, and
245
20
obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement as to the Property or the portion thereof
so Transferred and shall be made in strict compliance with the following conditions precedent:
(i) no transfer or assignment of any of Developer’s rights or interest under this Agreement shall
be made unless made together with the Transfer of all or a part of Developer’s interest in the
Property; and (ii) prior to the effective date of any proposed Transfer, Developer (as transferor)
shall notify City, in writing, of such proposed Transfer and deliver to City a written assignment
and assumption, executed in recordable form by the transferring and successor Developer and in
a form subject to the reasonable approval of the City Attorney of City (or designee), pursuant to
which the transferring Developer assigns to the successor Developer and the successor
Developer assumes from the transferring Developer all of the rights and obligations of the
transferring Developer with respect to the Property and this Agreement, or interest in the
Property, or portion thereof to be so Transferred, including in the case of a partial Transfer the
obligation to perform such obligations that must be performed outside of the Property so
Transferred that are a condition precedent to the successor Developer’s right to develop the
portion of the Property so Transferred. Any Permitted Transferee shall have all of the same
rights, benefits, duties, obligations, and liabilities of Developer under this Agreement with
respect to the portion of, or interest in, the Property sold, transferred, and assigned to such
Permitted Transferee; provided, however, that in the event of a Transfer of less than all of the
Property, or interest in the Property, no such Permitted Transferee shall have the right to enter
into an amendment of this Agreement that jeopardizes or impairs the rights or increases the
obligations of the Developer with respect to the balance of the Property, without Developer’s
written consent.
Notwithstanding any Transfer, the transferring Developer shall continue to be jointly and
severally liable to City, together with the successor Developer, to perform all of the transferred
obligations set forth in or arising under this Agreement unless there is full satisfaction of all of
the following conditions, in which event the transferring Developer shall be automatically
released from any and all obligations with respect to the portion of the Property so Transferred:
(i) the transferring Developer no longer has a legal or equitable interest in the portion of the
Property so Transferred other than as a beneficiary under a deed of trust; (ii) the transferring
Developer is not then in Default under this Agreement and no condition exists that with the
passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a Default hereunder; (iii) the
transferring Developer has provided City with the notice and the fully executed written and
recordable assignment and assumption agreement required as set forth in the first paragraph of
this Section 11; and (iv) the successor Developer either (A) provides City with substitute security
equivalent to any security previously provided by the transferring Developer to City to secure
performance of the successor Developer’s obligations hereunder with respect to the Property, or
interest in the Property, or the portion of the Property so Transferred, as determined in the City’s
sole discretion, or (B) if the transferred obligation in question is not a secured obligation, the
successor Developer either provides security reasonably satisfactory to City or otherwise
demonstrates to City’s reasonable satisfaction, as determined in the City’s sole discretion, that
the successor Developer has the financial resources or commitments available to perform the
transferred obligation at the time and in the manner required under this Agreement and the
Development Regulations for the Project. Any determination by the City in regards to the second
paragraph of Section 11, subpart (iv) (A), (B), shall be documented in writing.
246

12. Mortgagee Rights.
12.1 Encumbrances on Property.
The Parties agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit Developer in any manner
from encumbering the Property, any part of the Property, or any improvements on the Property
with any Mortgage securing financing with respect to the construction, development, use, or
operation of the Project.
12.2 Mortgagee Protection.
This Agreement shall be superior and senior to the lien of any Mortgage. Nevertheless,
no breach of this Agreement shall defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any
Mortgage made in good faith and for value. Any acquisition or acceptance of title or any right or
interest in the Property or part of the Property by a Mortgagee (whether due to foreclosure,
trustee’s sale, deed in lieu of foreclosure, lease termination, or otherwise) shall be subject to all
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any Mortgagee who takes title to the Property or
any part of the Property shall be entitled to the benefits arising under this Agreement.
12.3 Mortgagee Not Obligated.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 12.3, a Mortgagee will not have any
obligation or duty under the terms of this Agreement to perform the obligations of Developer or
other affirmative covenants of Developer, or to guarantee this performance except that: (i) the
Mortgagee shall have no right to develop the Project under the Development Regulations without
fully complying with the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) to the extent that any covenant to be
performed by Developer is a condition to the performance of a covenant by City, that
performance shall continue to be a condition precedent to City’s performance.
12.4 Notice of Default to Mortgagee; Right of Mortgagee to Cure.
Each Mortgagee shall, upon written request to City, be entitled to receive written notice
from City of: (i) the results of the periodic review of compliance specified in Article 7 of this
Agreement, and (ii) any default by Developer of its obligations set forth in this Agreement.
Each Mortgagee shall have a further right, but not an obligation, to cure the Default
within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a monetary
Default and within sixty (60) calendar days after receiving a Notice of Default with respect to a
non-monetary Default. If the Mortgagee can only remedy or cure a non-monetary Default by
obtaining possession of the Property, then the Mortgagee shall have the right to seek to obtain
possession with diligence and continuity through a receiver or otherwise, and to remedy or cure
the non-monetary Default within sixty (60) calendar days after obtaining possession and, except
in case of emergency or to protect the public health or safety, City may not exercise any of its
judicial remedies set forth in this Agreement to terminate or substantially alter the rights of the
Mortgagee until expiration of the sixty (60) calendar day period. In the case of a non-monetary
Default that cannot with diligence be remedied or cured within sixty (60) calendar days, the
Mortgagee shall have additional time as is reasonably necessary to remedy or cure the Default,
provided the Mortgagee promptly commences to cure the non-monetary Default within sixty (60)
calendar days and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion.

(ii) three (3) business days after deposit in the mail as provided above.
14.3 Project as Private Undertaking.
The Development of the Project is a private undertaking. Neither the Developer nor the
City is acting as the agent of the other in any respect, and each is an independent contracting
entity with respect to the terms, covenants, and conditions set forth in this Agreement. This
Agreement forms no partnership, joint venture, or other association of any kind. The only
248
23
relationship between the Parties is that of a government entity regulating the Development of
private property by the owner of the property.
14.4 Cooperation.
Each Party shall cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the other Party to
the extent consistent with and necessary to implement this Agreement. Upon the request of a
Party at any time, the other Party shall promptly execute, with acknowledgement or affidavit if
reasonably required, and file or record the required instruments and writings and take any actions
as may be reasonably necessary to implement this Agreement or to evidence or consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
14.5 Estoppel Certificates.
At any time, any Party may deliver written notice to the other Party requesting that Party
certify in writing that, to the best of its knowledge: (i) this Agreement is in full force and effect
and is binding on the Party; (ii) this Agreement has not been amended or modified either orally
or in writing or, if this Agreement has been amended, the Party providing the certification shall
identify the amendments or modifications; and (iii) the requesting Party is not in Default in the
performance of its obligations under this Agreement and no event or situation has occurred that
with the passage of time or the giving of Notice or both would constitute a Default or, if such is
not the case, then the other Party shall describe the nature and amount of the actual or
prospective Default. Such estoppel certificates may be relied upon only by the Parties, their
respective successors and assigns, and, in the event of an estoppel certificate issued by City, a
Mortgagee of Developer, including a Permitted Transferee, and its actual or prospective
Mortgagee. City shall be entitled to payment/reimbursement for its actual and reasonable costs
of investigation and preparation of an estoppel certificate prior to issuing the same.
The Party requested to furnish an estoppel certificate shall execute and return the
certificate within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt (assuming, in the case of an estoppel
certificate to be issued by City, Developer has paid City the cost thereof, as provided above).
14.6 Rules of Construction.
The singular includes the plural; the masculine and neuter include the feminine; “shall” is
mandatory; and “may” is permissive.
14.7 Time Is of the Essence.
Time is of the essence regarding each provision of this Agreement as to which time is an
element.
14.8 Waiver.
The failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this
Agreement by the other Party, and failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon a Default by the
other Party, shall not constitute a waiver of that Party’s right to demand strict compliance by the
other Party in the future.
249
24
14.9 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be
identical and may be introduced in evidence or used for any other purpose without any other
counterpart, but all of which shall together constitute one (1) and the same agreement.
14.10 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to
the subject matter addressed in this Agreement.
14.11 Severability.
The Parties intend that each and every obligation of the Parties is interdependent and
interrelated with the other, and if any provision of this Agreement or the application of the
provision to any Party or circumstances shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, it is
the intention of the Parties that the remainder of this Agreement or the application of the
provision to persons or circumstances shall be rendered invalid or unenforceable. The Parties
intend that no Party shall receive any of the benefits of the Agreement without the full
performance by such Party of all of its obligations provided for under this Agreement. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties intend that Developer shall not receive any of
the benefits of this Agreement if any of Developer’s obligations are rendered void or
unenforceable as the result of any third party litigation, and City shall be free to exercise its
legislative discretion to amend or repeal the Development Regulations applicable to the Property
and Developer shall cooperate as required, despite this Agreement, should third party litigation
result in the nonperformance of Developer’s obligations under this Agreement. The provisions
of this Section 14.11 shall apply regardless of whether the Effective Date occurs and after the
Termination Date.
14.12 Construction.
This Agreement has been drafted after extensive negotiation and revision. Both City and
Developer are sophisticated parties who were represented by independent counsel throughout the
negotiations or City and Developer had the opportunity to be so represented and voluntarily
chose to not be so represented. City and Developer each agree and acknowledge that the terms
of this Agreement are fair and reasonable, taking into account their respective purposes, terms,
and conditions. This Agreement shall therefore be construed as a whole consistent with its fair
meaning, and no principle or presumption of contract construction or interpretation shall be used
to construe the whole or any part of this Agreement in favor of or against any Party.
14.13 Successors and Assigns; Constructive Notice and Acceptance.
The burdens of this Agreement shall be binding upon, and the benefits of this Agreement
shall inure to, all successors in interest to the Parties to this Agreement. Except for those
provisions relating to indemnity in Section 10, all other provisions of this Agreement shall, from
and after the Effective Date hereof, be enforceable as equitable servitudes and constitute
covenants running with the land. Subject to occurrence of the Effective Date, each covenant to
do or refrain from doing some act hereunder with regard to Development of the Property: (i) is
250
25
for the benefit of and is a burden upon every portion of the Property; (ii) runs with the Property
and each portion thereof; and (iii) is binding upon each Party and each successor in interest
during its ownership of the Property or any portion thereof. Every person or entity who now or
later owns or acquires any right, title, or interest in any part of the Project or the Property is and
shall be conclusively deemed to have consented and agreed to every provision of this
Agreement. This Section 14.13 applies regardless of whether the instrument by which such
person or entity acquires the interest refers to or acknowledges this Agreement and regardless of
whether such person or entity has expressly entered into an assignment and assumption
agreement as provided for in Article 11.
14.14 No Third Party Beneficiaries.
The only Parties to this Agreement are City and Developer. This Agreement does not
involve any third party beneficiaries, and it is not intended and shall not be construed to benefit
or be enforceable by any other person or entity.
14.15 Applicable Law and Venue.
This Agreement shall be construed and enforced consistent with the laws of the State of
California, without regard to conflicts of law principles. Any action at law or in equity arising
under this Agreement or brought by any Party for the purpose of enforcing, construing, or
determining the validity of any provision of this Agreement shall be filed and tried in the
Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California, or the United States District Court
for the Central District of California. The Parties waive all provisions of law providing for the
removal or change of venue to any other court.
14.16 Section Headings.
All section headings and subheadings are inserted for convenience only and shall not
affect construction or interpretation of this Agreement.
14.17 Incorporation of Recitals and Exhibits.

3. Project Characteristics
The Project would allow for the development of 260 base residential units, a 1.1-acre public park, .6
acres of parks and walkways (including a 0.45 mile jogging trail), and a detached parking structure.
Approximately 1 acres of the site would be dedicated to access, parking, utilities, and landscaping. In
addition to the 260 base units, the Project is seeking a 20% density bonus. With the density bonus,
the Project will include 312 residential apartments consisting of 299 market-rate units and 13 very-
low affordable units.
274
The Project would include 55 studio units, 149 one-bedroom units, and 108 two-bedroom units, for a
total of 312 units. The studios would range in size from 515 square feet to 628 square feet. The one-
bedroom units would range from 665 square feet to 1,025 square feet. The two-bedroom units would
range from 1,000 square feet to 1,413 square feet. Balconies would be provided on all units and
would range in size from 26 square feet to 71 square feet (except that studio units would have Juliet
balconies only).
The dwelling units would be in one building on approximately 2.7 acres consisting of four stories over
one level of on-grade parking and two levels of below grading parking with an overall building height
of 65 feet. Other elements such as stairwells, parapets, and elevator overruns would exceed 65 feet
and would be at a height of approximately 70 feet.
A detached 284-space parking structure on approximately 1.4 acres would provide approximately
three levels of parking with an overall height of 40 feet.
Implementation of the Project would require the demolition of existing surface parking and
landscaping within the limits of disturbance. All Project residential parking would be provided on site,
with additional on-site parking for the proposed public park and adjacent office uses.

The Project’s design and materials would be high-quality with lush landscaping and activated
pedestrian spaces. The colors would be compatible with the surrounding natural and built
environment. The main building corners are the featured project massing and will be clad in warm
colored stone veneer providing a natural richness distinguishing the building as an inviting oasis in the
Koll Center development. Internal accents of cementitious siding in dark grays and blues provide
articulation to the main building façade along the southern internal street and accent the cool colors
of the exterior plaster base. Storefront windows distinguish amenity and leasing areas as unique and
275
special from the residential units. At the upper level balconies and amenity entrances awning are
used to provide façade articulation and visual interest. The main vehicular entrances utilize stone
veneer wayfinding elements to identify project entry points.
The square footage and massing of the new residential and parking structure buildings would be
compatible with existing buildings and would include articulated façades.
Shaded lounging would be provided in the park as well as opportunities for outdoor workspace. The
park would be programmed with a mix of active and passive uses which may include a multi-purpose
lawn for recreation, bocce court, and shade pavilion. Streetscapes would be well landscaped with
pedestrian walkways to match neighborhood character. The main entry drive will be enhanced with
seated nodes and lush landscape to soften the building façade. Podium courtyards are designed to
be amenity rich with pool, spa, outdoor fitness and lush gardens for resident comfort and recreation.
The Project’s design approach is intended to be reflective of the surrounding office context. Its
contemporary forms complement the existing office buildings to create a building that is respectful
of the current condition while creating a distinctly unique identity. The Project corners are enhanced
with rich materials to bring attention and articulate the prominent areas of the Project. The approach
to the building site orientation was done to create a sheltered refuge in the greater business
development by turning the courtyards inward away from the busy roadways of Von Karman Ave and
Birch Street. At the same time, the building pulls away from the east and west property lines to
provide generous relief from the public right-of-way to create an enjoyable pedestrian experience.
The site is linked with the surrounded development by means of a green belt and pedestrian trail
along the north property line connecting Von Karman Avenue to Birch Street with the public park
centrally located along the route. The park’s location provides a centralized amenity for the entire
neighborhood and provides the necessary relief between nearby office buildings and apartments.
The Project will comply with the Cal-Green building code and utilize the following sustainable
features:
• Low flow plumbing fixtures
• Moisture based irrigation controller
• Stormwater infiltration
• EV ready parking stalls
• Bike parking for residents and visitors
• Low-E glazing
• Low VOC paint & coatings
• High Albedo roofing
• LED light fixtures
• Low VOC emitting finished (carpet, resilient flooring, wood)
276
• Low formaldehyde composite wood products
• Recycled steel
• Fly ash concrete
• Building PV ready
• Energy Star appliances and bathroom fixtures
• Project is pre-piped for future gray water use
The Project will promote walkability given its proximity to the surrounding office-uses. It is anticipated
that some of the surrounding office users will choose to live in the development and therefore be able
to walk to work.
4. PARKING, VEHICULAR AND NON-VEHICULAR CIRCULATION
Parking
The Project would replace onsite parking through a combination of structure and surface parking. As
shown in Table 3-2 (Proposed Residential & Office Parking), the Project will provide 559 onsite parking
spaces for its residential units and 276 parking stalls to serve the existing office buildings in the parking
structure located at the southeast corner of the Project site.
Vehicular Access
Vehicular access to Koll Center Newport is currently provided by three driveways on Birch Street and
two driveways on Von Karman Avenue. Cross access throughout the site currently allows motorists to
access any parking area within Koll Center Newport from any of the site driveways. All driveways are
unsignalized and gated. Drivers enter either by key card or parking ticket. To exit the site, key card
users use their card to raise the gate; others must have a validated ticket or pay at the gate.
Access for the Project site, as well as the existing office buildings, would be provided from two
locations on Birch Street and one location on Von Karman Avenue. The Von Karman Avenue entrance
will be widened to accommodate full left and right turn lanes. The Birch Street exit will be widened to
accommodate full left and right turn lanes. Existing gates along the spine street that crosses the
property from Birch Street to Von Karman Avenue would be relocated as necessary to facilitate
efficient site circulation.
Pedestrian
There are existing sidewalks along Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue. Additionally, there is an
existing pedestrian connection through the site. As a part of the Project, walkways would be provided
within the site and connect to these existing sidewalks along the streets. Walkways would be provided
along the Project frontage to the spine street and into the proposed residential building, as well as
between the building, open space, and existing office buildings within the site.
277
Bicycle Storage
The Project would include a 770 square foot bike shop/storage on the ground level to serve Project
residents.
5. LANDSCAPING, PARKS, OPEN SPACE, AND RECREATIONAL AMENITIES
Landscaping would be provided throughout the Project site to connect different areas of the site. In
addition to the 1.1-acre public park, the Project would include approximately .6 acres of open space,
including a 0.45 mile jogging trail.
Public Park
The Project includes a 1.1-acre publicly accessible park. The park would be located near the center of
the building approximately equidistant from Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue. The park would
be programmed with a mix of active and passive uses which may include a multi-purpose lawn for
recreation, bocce court and shade pavilion.
The park would include an area of terraced seating with decomposed granite paving that has views of
the central lawn. It would also include a shade pavilion with overhead shade structures, lounge areas
with seating, outdoor tables for groups, and a specimen tree. Walkways would be provided within
the park and adjacent to the park for access to the park. The park would provide shaded lounging and
opportunities for outdoor workspace. It would be landscaped with a variety of grasses, trees, shrubs,
groundcover, and succulents.
Open Space
Jogging Trail. The Project would include a 0.45 mile jogging trail connecting the residential building
to the neighboring buildings and the park. The trail would include landscaped pathways, seating
nodes, and connections to existing buildings.
Courtyards and Terraces. Within the footprint of the building, the Project would provide a level 2
podium pool courtyard, a level 2 podium garden terrace, and a level 5 roof terrace. These
improvements will be for the use for the exclusive use of the residential buildings tenants and their
guests.
Entry Court. The Project would feature an entry court with a water feature and planted pottery in
cobble.
Amenities
The Project would include approximately the following private amenities to serve Project residents:
• 3,354 square foot clubroom
• 640 square foot dog wash
• 2,910 square foot fitness center
• 2,611 square foot roof deck
• 1,703 square foot outdoor amenity
278
• 15,484 square foot podium courtyard
• 770 square foot bike shop and bike storage
6. UTILITIES
Implementation of the Proposed Project would require the construction of new on-site utility
infrastructure to serve the residences and onsite features. These utilities would be connected to
existing utility infrastructure in adjacent roadways, with the final sizing and design of on-site facilities
to occur during final building design and plan check.
The Project would connect to existing utility systems. The Project site is within the service area of the
Irvine Ranch Water District. The City of Newport Beach collection system serves the Project site and
conveys wastewater to the Orange County Sanitation District. Storm water drainage is managed by
the City and the Orange County Flood Control Division of the Orange County Public Works
Department. Dry utilities—Southern California Edison for electricity, Southern California Gas
Company for natural gas, AT&T for telephone service, and Cox Communications for cable television
and data transmission—would be extended to the new buildings.
Water Service
The Project site is within the service area of the Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) which provides
both potable and non-potable water. IRWD has existing potable distribution lines adjacent to and
within the site in Von Karman Avenue, the on-site spine street, and between the 4910 Birch Street
and 4440 Von Karman Avenue office buildings.
The Project would construct a new water system with connections to an existing
10-inch IRWD main in Von Karman Avenue and a 10-inch main in Birch Street to provide potable and
fire flow water service to the Project site. IRWD maintains a non-potable water main immediately
adjacent to the Project site in Von Karman Avenue. The Proposed Project would connect to the
existing 8-inch IRWD non-potable main in Von Karman Avenue.
The proposed residential building would include approximately 53,000 square feet of landscaping that
would utilize irrigation. To conserve water, the following measures would be incorporated into the
Project:
• Installation of automatic ‘smart’ irrigation controller with rain-sensor.
• Use of low precipitation/low angle irrigation spray heads.
• Use of low water consuming plants.
• Soil amendment to achieve good soil moisture retention.
• Mulching to reduce evapotransporation from the root zone.
• Installation of automatic irrigation system to provide deep-root watering to trees.
The irrigation system for each hydrozone would be automatic and would incorporate low volume drip
emitters, bubblers, and high efficiency low angle spray heads at turf only. D rip irrigation systems
would be employed where effective and feasible. Irrigation valves would be separated to allow the
system to operate in response to orientation and exposure. Plants would be grouped with similar
water, climatic and soil requirements to conserve water and create a drought responsive landscape.
279
Each hydrozone would consist of moderate to low water consuming plants. In areas of moderate
water consuming plants, plants would be amended to retain moisture for healthy growth and to
conserve water. Soils would be prepared and emended to provide for maximum moisture retention
and percolation. Planted beds would be mulched to retain soil moisture and reduce
evapotransporation.
To avoid wasted water, controls would be overseen by a flow monitor that would detect broken
sprinkler heads to stop that station’s operation, advancing to the next workable station. In the event
of a pressure supply line breakage, the operation would completely stop.
Wastewater Collection and Disposal
The City would provide sanitary sewer service to the Project site. There are three, 8-inch service
connections in Birch Street and Von Karman Avenue. The Proposed Project would connect to existing
service connections through sanitary sewer lines or laterals. Discharge from the sewer system would
be directed to the Orange County Sanitation District’s treatment plants.
Drainage and Water Quality Treatment
The site currently drains toward Von Karman Avenue (approximately 60% of flow) and Birch Street
(40% of flow) and connects to the City’s stormwater system. With buildout of the Project site, the
Project would continue to connect to the City’s stormwater system through an on-site storm drain
system. The site’s runoff would be collected and treated through vegetation before exiting the site.
Dry Utilities and Services
Public infrastructure and utility buildings, structures, and facilities including, but not limited to,
electrical, gas, telephone, and cable television would have to be extended to the proposed land uses.
All new public utilities would be placed underground within the development area. Utilities would be
principally located in road rights-of-way.
7. Construction Phasing
Implementation of the Proposed Project would be phased over an approximately 2.7-year period with
demolition and construction activities anticipated to commence in the third quarter of 2021 and
conclude in the first quarter of 2024. The Proposed Project would be constructed in three phases.
Construction phasing will be set forth in a construction management plan to be submitted, reviewed
and approved prior to construction of each phase. As discussed below and shown in the submittal
package sheet A5.3, Phase 1 includes the demolition of some surface parking and landscaping and the
construction of a free-standing parking structure; Phase 2 includes the construction of the 312 unit
residential structure; and Phase 3 includes the reconfiguration of existing surface parking.
Phase 1: Parking Structure
Phase 1 includes the demolition of approximately 106 surface parking spaces and associated
landscaping. A free-standing 284 stall parking structure would be constructed prior to breaking
ground on the remainder of the Proposed Project in order to replace surface parking temporarily
and permanently displaced by site development. The parking structure would have 3 levels of
above-ground parking, including rooftop parking. Construction activities are anticipated to occur
over an approximate 6-month timeframe.
280
Phase 2A: Residential Structure
Phase 2 includes the demolition of approximately 443 surface parking spaces to allow for the
construction of the Project. At the completion of Phase 2, there would be 1,654 parking spaces
with parking for the Project residences and guest as well as 284 spaces in the structure for office
uses.
The Proposed Project’s site grading and foundation excavation would require the removal of
approximately 112,000 cubic yards (cy) of material. It is anticipated that all 112,000 cy will be
exported from the site. Construction activities are anticipated to occur over an approximately 24-
month time period.
Phase 2B
Phase 2B includes the demolition of 75 surface parking spaces to allow for the reconfiguration of
on-site surface parking and access. No grading is assumed in Phase 2B. Phase 2B construction
activities would run concurrent with Phase 2A and are anticipated to occur over an approximate
3-month time period.
The following table identifies the number of parking spaces that would be provided during each phase
of the Project both during the construction of the phase when the surface parking has been removed,
and at the completion of the phase when the replacement parking or the new parking has been
completed. During the construction of the new parking structure (Phase 1) and the construction of
the residential structure (Phase 2), parking shuttles would be provided for the use by office employees
of and guests of the office buildings. At the completion of Phase 1, there would be a net increase of
178 parking spaces from 1,643 existing spaces to 1,821 spaces.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 2, 2020
TO: Derek Picerne, Executive Vice President of Development, The Picerne Group
FROM: Anthony Petros
SUBJECT: Residences at Koll Center Parking Analysis
The purpose of this memorandum is to evaluate the parking supply and availability of vehicular
parking spaces during the construction of the Koll Center Residences Project (project) near the
corner of Von Karman Avenue/Birch Street in Newport Beach, California. The Koll Center Residences
is a proposed development on 13 acres of existing surface parking at the Koll Center office park
between Von Karman Avenue and Birch Street. The proposed development includes 299 market-
rate units and 13 affordable units for a total of 312 residential apartments and 841 total parking
stalls, a detached 285-stall parking structure, and a public park. The construction phases would
involve removing some of the existing surface parking spaces, which may lead to the realignment of
parking supply during construction.
The proposed project would involve construction of apartments and a parking structure. Phasing for
the entire project construction is as follows:
x Phase 1 would involve the demolition of 106 existing parking stalls (94 parking spaces from Area
2 and 12 adjoining spaces from Area 3; see attached Figure 1 for area identification) and
construction of a 285-stall freestanding garage in Area 2. At the end of Phase 1, there would be
179 net additional parking stalls for employees and patrons of Koll Center in addition to the
balance of the surface parking on the site. Phase 1 would occur before the construction of the
apartments in Phase 2.
x Phase 2 would involve the demolition of 440 existing parking stalls from Area 7 and construction
of 276 subterranean parking spaces in Area 7, which will be available to all uses including the
office buildings.
x Phase 3 would include reconfiguration of 75 existing surface parking spaces in Area 6 and part of
Area 3.
Table A presents the number of parking spaces that would be demolished and constructed in
Areas 2, 3, and 7 during Phases 1 and 2. As shown in Table A, Phases 1 and 2 would involve removing
546 existing parking spaces and constructing 561 new parking spaces. This would result in a surplus
of 15 parking spaces for the Koll Center Residences development.

This estimation is based on the requirement of one-for-one parking stall replacement, without
considering the actual parking demand or parking usage. To demonstrate the actual parking
conditions over a typical week, LSA conducted parking accumulation surveys on Monday, July 22,
through Friday, July 26, 2019 from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. each day. The parking survey was
conducted at nine surface parking areas plus one parking structure. The entire parking area is open
and available to all Koll Center tenants and users, and no parking reservation is present. Office
occupancies ranged from 100 percent to 70 percent across the entire seven-building area. The
survey data were assembled by area, day, and time of day, as shown in Table B (attached). Figure 1
shows a summary of each area’s parking supply, peak parking demand, peak percentage of
utilization, and peak time. As shown on Figure 1, none of these parking areas are utilized 100
percent, and parking utilization for the entire area is less than 50 percent.
During Phase 1, the peak demand from Area 2 (i.e., 46 spaces) would be accommodated in Areas 1
and 3 (9 residual spaces in Area 3 and 45 residual spaces in Area 1, for a total of 54 residual parking
spaces). No shuttle service for guests or employees would be required. During Phase 2, the peak
demand from Area 7 (i.e., 205 spaces) would be accommodated in Area 8, the freestanding garage
in Area 2 that would be constructed during Phase 1, and the parking structure located north of
Area 3 (64 residual spaces in Area 8, 239 residual spaces in Area 2, and 202 residual spaces in the
parking structure, for a total of 505 residual parking spaces).
Therefore, based on the allocation of parking by phase, the demolition of parking spaces, and the
provision of greater parking supply during the few phases of development, as well as the observed
parking accumulation over a typical week, adequate parking is forecast during the construction
period and after equilibration of the new residential use. Parking conditions do not warrant
provision of any additional Transportation Demand or Parking Management strategies such as valet
parking or shuttles. LSA recommends wayfinding signage to assist patrons to the available parking
locations. In addition, plans should be developed that demonstrate safe and walkable pedestrian
facilities during the construction phases of development.

367
5.0 SAFETY AND SECURITY
5.1 Pedestrian Protection
Currently, there is a pedestrian sidewalk adjacent to the Site, along the west side facing Birch St and the East side facing Von
Karman. Secure fencing will be installed to foster pedestrian safety. At various times prior to the construction buildings, a
temporary street and or sidewalk closure permit may be required so that the walk may be closed for pedestrian use due to the
installation of landscaping, permanent public sidewalks and other misc. activities.
5.2 Project Fencing
The entire perimeter of the Site has been fenced with a 6 foot high fence. Two gates, one at Fairchild Drive, the south
entrance to the Site, and one at the current north entrance to the Site will provide access into the Site and will be locked for
security at the end of each day.
5.3 Safety and Security
Appropriate signage will be posted at the Site indicating "No Trespassing," "Hard Hat Required," "Authorized Personnel Only,"
and other visitor and delivery information. Daily safety inspections will be done by the onsite superintendent.
6.0 AIR QUALITY CONTROL, FUGITIVE DUST CONTROL, NOISE SUPPRESSION, AND VIBRATION MONITORING
6.1 Emissions/Air Quality Control
Construction activities will follow the 2007 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP} adopted by the South Coast Air Quality
Management District and all Mitigation Measure and Conditions of Approval to reduce air pollution and emissions impact.
6.2 Fugitive Dust Control
The project shall comply with the Fugitive Dust Emission and Control Plan approved by the South Coast Air Quality
Management District (under District Rule 403} and all Mitigation Measure and Conditions of Approval. Dust will be
minimized using water as control. During grading activities, any exposed soil areas shall be watered as needed daily.
Stockpiles of crushed cement, dirt or other materials shall be covered or watered as needed daily. In addition, trucks carrying
soil and debris shall be wetted or covered prior to leaving the Site. On windy days, or when fugitive dust can be observed
leaving the Site, additional applications of water shall be applied to maintain minimum moisture content as defined by
SCAQMD Rule 403. Soil disturbance shall be terminated whenever wind conditions exceed 25 miles per hour.
6.3 Noise Control
Construction activities will adhere to the hours prescribed by the City of Newport Beach's Noise Ordinance (Municipal Code
Section 10.28.040}. Specifically, construction activities will be restricted to (Monday through Friday), Saturday and non-holiday
weekdays from 7:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., per Section 10.28.040.
The General contractor shall provide business tenants and owners within 100 feet of the Site with a construction schedule
for the project prior to the commencement of construction and shall keep them informed of any material changes to the
schedule. The notification shall also identify the name and phone number of a contact person with whom to register
complaints.
6.4 Noise Control Consideration
Noise from construction activities on this project will be a function of the noise generated by individual construction
equipment items (as listed in Section 2.7 Construction Equipment), the equipment location (much of this construction noise
368
will be insulated by distance from buildings and the depth of the excavation), and the timing and duration of noise-generated
activities. It is important to note that all equipment is not generally operated continuously or used simultaneously. The
number, type, distribution, and usage of construction equipment will differ from phase to phase. The noise generated is both
temporary in nature and limited in hours by the City's Noise Ordinance (Section 10.28.040).
7.0 ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE/ PROTECTION
7.1 Erosion, Sediment Control and Beach Protection
Per the State's NPDES permit, the project has prepared a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) with erosion
control measures to ensure soils resulting from grading and earthwork activities are prevented from leaving the Site
In addition, an erosion control plan will be provided with the project's rough grading plan per the project's conditions of
approval. Please refer to Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan prepared by Hall & Foreman for more detailed information.
7.2 Water Quality Control
The Project has prepared a Water Quality Management Plan which incorporates a variety of BMPs that will be used onsite to
control predictable pollutant runoff. Please refer to conceptual Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP).

Newport Beach, CA 92660
RE: Residences at 4400 Von Karman
Dear Chair Weigand and Commissioners:
SPON, Still Protecting Our Newport, has been engaged and interested in the Airport
Area, including Koll Center, since the 1970s when a business complex was developed
with an eye to ambiance, parking space, and functionality for the owners and tenants.
We opposed an earlier project, in 2003, which allowed for more intensity and impacted
other buildings.
More recently, we actively opposed the Shopoff Group’s three luxury condo towers in
Koll Center. SPON was concerned about the lack of work to reduce the problems for
associated buildings. During the hearings for the condo towers, SPON produced a
Solutions page with five categories of concern. Those were: Building Height; Livable
Residential Village; Central Park; Retail Component; and Collaboration/Consensus. (See
attached.) Not all of those issues have been addressed with the new Residences at 4400
Von Karman project.
At the present time, SPON is in the process of seeking a better planned vision for the
Airport Area including both Koll Center and Newport Place for three reasons. First, the
area is being piecemeal planned as more housing is being sought. Second, the area is
attractive for housing, but, the State’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment needs
require the same attention to good planning. And third, we believe the new residential
areas should be planned in a way that optimizes the chances for achieving our
“Solutions.” This would create a vibrant, livable residential community with plenty of
retail components, and will have collaborated with residents and businesses to reach a
consensus.

To that end we find the Planning Commission Hearing on November 5 too soon as there has clearly not been
a chance for reduction of significant impacts to the existing properties and businesses. Some of the
supporting documents remain unavailable to the public such as the final project plans which we understand

One key concern is parking for the impacted existing businesses. The parking ratios cannot be calculated
without considering the office space capacity and parking rights confirmed in the CC&Rs signed by owners
and tenants. Further, the proximity of the stand-alone parking structure to several buildings is of serious
concern. Their closeness impacts existing views, light and open space which are all crucial to the existing
office working spaces.
What happens with this project is important to us. It is evidence of an interest in good planning in a holistic
sense for the Airport Area – or it is just one more piecemeal project with token attention to the adjacent
owners and public.
Thank you very much for consideration of our concerns.
Sincerely,
Bruce Bartram

Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
The Koll Residences would be the largest condo tower project in
Newport history. It seems quite clear that such a project is not what
many voters intended nor currently desire. SPON is advocating for an
improved baseline project that better aligns with the General Plan,
the Integrated Conceptual Development Plan for the Koll site, and
community and adjacent property owner input.
PROBLEM POTENTIAL SOLUTION
Proposes three high-rise
condominium towers with 15 stories
(160’ tall)
Building Height Revise to mid-rise apartments and
condominiums, limited to 4-5 stories
Packs three tall towers in close
proximity to much smaller buildings,
exacerbating density and massing
issues; feels like the project is
shoehorned into the site rather than
creating a legitimate “livable
residential village” atmosphere
Livable
Residential
Village
Create a more human and
pedestrian scale; Establish a sense
of neighborhood; Design mid-rise
project using a podium or wrap
configuration to hide unsightly
parking garages; Better integrate
project with surrounding building
heights; Increase ground floor retail
Moves the GP-required “Central
Park” far to the project’s east end –
removing the “sense of place” and
“focal point” required by the GP and
exacerbating density and massing
impacts on adjacent property owners
Central Park Include a centrally located park
within the project near the
residential units and existing
property owners; Increase ground
floor retail surrounding the park
Includes a token amount of retail for
such a large project, only 3,000 sq.
ft. of retail (less than one half of one
percent)
Retail
Component
Increase retail for residents and
employees and encourage
walkability; Provide needed services,
and promote the pedestrian scale
Vastly exceeds the height of most
existing properties adjacent to the
project
Collaboration/
Consensus
Reduce building height to better
align with existing buildings and
create a “livable village” feel

Dear Chair Weigand, Commissioners and staff:
Due to Covid19 circumstances affecting notifications and meetings we are kindly requesting
the public hearing for the Residences at 4400 Von Karman be delayed until November 19th .
Please include the attached letter in the Administrative Record for this project.
The Von Karman Condo Association is comprised of approximately a dozen office condo
owners who are stakeholders and directly impacted by the proposed project. We only had 2
representatives available for the last minute invitation from The Picerne Group to review their
project. We found it concerning that the plans that were presented to us yesterday are
different than what is posted on the City’s website.
Moreover, the positioning of the stand-alone parking garage may need to be modified. This
letter explains in detail the reasoning and justification. If The Picerne Group desires to show it
is working with the business stakeholders, it has the opportunity to make those changes.
Delaying the formal presentation to the Planning Commission is not a big ask in light of the
importance of approving a better thought out integrated plan that reflects the needs of the
businesses and their employees.

and Planning Commissioners

RE: Residences at 4400 Von Karman
Dear Chair Weigand and Commissioners:
Bitcentral occupies approximately 15,000 square feet of office space in the 4340 Von Karman
building. We are on a long-term lease and have significant investment in our business at this
location. I submitted a letter and presented public comments when the last Koll Center
Residence project was reviewed.
We just received written notice of a Planning Commission meeting. The revised Koll Residence
project has changed significantly but still has impacts on our business and employees. I have
not had enough time to review the plans and have been informed that some of the
documents are continuing to be modified. Is it true that what is on the Planning Commission
website is not the final submission? I humbly request that the Planning Commission not hold
a vote on the Residences at 4400 Von Karman project until, at the earliest, its Thursday,
November 19, 2020 meeting.
Meanwhile, I have taken a look at the Entitlement Submittal online and spoken to our Von
Karman Condo Owners Association board to garner more information. The structures' height
has been reduced, but the parking garage is now only 76 feet away from the 4340 building!
I have attached two photos from the original ShopOff plans to illustrate that the Picerne
parking garage has a higher impact on the 4340 Building than before. Moreover, ShopOff
had included elevations showing a garden wall and /or a façade screen. The revised Picerne
project has moved the detached parking garage precariously close to 4340 Von Karman
while not providing us with appropriate elevation drawings or a solar shade study.
Because the parking garage's purpose is to replace parking for the 5000 Birch building, it
would be appropriate for The Picerne Group to locate the garage along the east property
line adjacent to the 5000 Birch building. That way, the parking spaces would be located
closer to the tenants in the 5000 Birch property that are losing parking on the other side due
to the proposed apartments and park area.
Koll Center Newport currently does not have adequate parking to serve the needs of the
building owners. The 4340 building is allowed 197 spaces; however, our actual conditions
(before the pandemic) were 240. Because the 4350-building next to us was only at 65%
occupancy, we could temporarily get more spaces. If both buildings were close to full
occupancy, there would not be enough spaces, and there is no on-street parking anywhere
nearby. Koll has a fiduciary responsibility to the property owners in Koll Center Newport to
Planning Commission - November 5, 2020
Item No. 3a Additional Materials Received After Printing
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
Bitcentral 4340 Von Karman, Suite 400 Newport Beach, CA 92660 949 253 9000
provide adequate parking. The amount a random parking study shows is not accurate since
the current parking has proven inadequate for 4340. It will also be insufficient for 4350 when
the occupancy returns to normal. An additional 80 to 90 spaces are needed between the
two buildings to fulfill the actual parking demand. The argument that self-driving cars will
mitigate the need for parking is nonsense. I drive a vehicle that is capable of and run a
software company. It will be over a decade before the hardware and software are capable
of true autonomy and has the potential to reduce parking. In the meantime, we have
nowhere else to park and need to accommodate our current employees and not have this
project negatively impact our businesses' profitability.
Bottom line, the parking structure is too far away from the displaced parking in its current
placement. Likewise, I believe that stakeholders in Koll Center Newport are not being
provided with accurate plans or sufficient time to provide informed input. I am getting some
of my information 2nd hand. Considering all the proposal deficiencies, I do not see how the
Planning Commission is prepared to recommend the 4400 Von Karman Residences to the
City Council for approval.
Also, to the matter of the parking structure, I continue to be concerned about how the
Applicant and the Koll Company intend to mitigate risk for the existing businesses during
construction and afterward. The precedent of approving infill development of common area
parking lots that serves multiple businesses is problematic, especially considering there is more
than one property owner in Koll Center Newport. Aren't there common area parking rights?
As a business owner who is considerably impacted by this project, I am requesting that the
Planning Commission postpone its vote to give the public adequate time to review and
respond to final plans.
As stated at the beginning of this letter, I urge the Commission to delay a vote until its
November 19th meeting so that The Picerne Group can post revised plans, including some
alternatives for the parking structure. The stakeholders and the citizens look forward to a fair
and transparent process. The only way to do this is to allocate sufficient time for The Picerne
Group to work through these essential modifications and give the public time to provide
comments.
Sincerely,
Fred Fourcher, CEO, Bitcentral Inc.

________________________________________________________________
Finding B.2.r on handwritten page 50 of your staff report contains a scribe’s error
and should include additional facts. The following language replaces what is
found in the draft resolution:
“r. LU 6.15.3 – Airport Compatibility. Require that all development be
constructed in conformance with the height restrictions set forth by
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Federal Aviation Regulations
(FAR) Part 77, and Caltrans Division of Aeronautics, and that residential
development be located outside of the 65 dBA CNEL noise contour
specified by the 1985 JWA Master Plan
The Project site located at 4400 Von Karman Avenue is located outside
the 65 dBA CNEL contour as that noise contour is mapped by the 2008
JWA Airport Environs Land Use Plan that accounts for the most recent
update to the JWA Master Plan. The site is entirely outside of the 60 dBA
CNEL noise contour. The proposed Planned Community Development
Plan Regulations would limit future construction to 75 feet above ground
level. Project review for any obstruction or interference with airport
operations by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is in progress. A
FAA finding of no potential hazard to air navigation is anticipated due to a
previous and identical determination for taller buildings at the same project
site. The Project is consistent with LU 6.15.3 provided the FAA officially
makes a finding of no threat to air navigation for the Project.”

Re: The Residences at 4400 Von Karman
In advance of our November 5th hearing, we wish to provide a summary of the collaborative process we
have undergone in consideration of the community as a whole and the more immediate community
within the Koll Center. The Picerne Group has a track record, in southern California and beyond, of
practicing sound urban planning in cooperation with the communities in which it invests. As you know,
California has a housing crisis. Our regional community cannot turn its back on this issue. However, we
can approach the issue with an eye toward the sort of urban redevelopment that is compatible with
existing uses. Our City is essentially built out, which puts that much more pressure on the need for
effective and creative reuse of existing properties. We believe that our Project, The Residences at 4400
Von Karman, exemplifies the balance needed between the existing community and the need for
intelligently planned housing.
In our effort to collaborate, we have had many meetings with community groups, Koll Center office
owners, and City staff including a thorough review of the documented public feedback in response to
the previous application for the three high-rise condominium towers project known as the Koll Center
Residences. While our Project lies within the City’s approved Airport Business Area Integrated
Conceptual Development Plan allowing for our proposed use, we have responded to the collective
community feedback in the following ways:
•Building Height: reduced to a five-story, 65’ mid-rise development which is substantially the
same height as the surrounding office buildings
•Livable Residential Village: revised to appropriate massing with integrated design and
connectivity to neighboring office buildings for a more cohesive campus setting
•Central Park: 1-acre centralized park dedicated to the City and maintained by The Picerne Group
together with 0.45 miles of interconnected pedestrian trails
•Affordability: Provides 13 Very Low Income units (at a cost of several million dollars to the
development) and an additional 299 Above Moderate units, both of which help achieve the
state mandated RHNA goals
At this point we have satisfied the vast majority of interested parties, however, based upon
communications received within the last few days from SPON and an adjacent building owner, there
appears to be some confusion about parking that we would like to clarify for you. To recap our
approach to parking, referenced on the attached site plan and tables, our Project does the following:
(i)Eliminates 443 parking spaces to accommodate our building and the 1-acre City park and
eliminates 106 parking spaces to accommodate the construction of the freestanding garage.
The total number of parking spaces eliminated is 549 (443, plus 106).
(ii) Replaces 276 of those parking spaces in the podium garage under our new apartment structure
outlined as Area 7. These parking spaces will be designated for office use and predominantly
Planning Commission - November 5, 2020
Item No. 3e Additional Materials Received
Residences at 4400 Von Karman (PA2020-061)
City of Newport Beach Planning Commission

serve the immediately surrounding office buildings. In addition, those spaces will be completely
separated from resident parking by virtue of a separate entry/exit and a separate and enhanced
elevator lobby.
(iii) Adds a 284-space parking structure in place of 106 surface spaces outlined in Areas 2 and 3.
Our podium parking garage and parking structure provide 560 parking spaces, fully replacing what has
been lost with a surplus to accommodate losing a few spaces in other areas. In addition to replacing
every parking space, we have enhanced the parking as follows:
• Increased Structured and Covered Parking – 549 surface stalls dedicated to office users will be
replaced by 560 structured and covered parking spaces which is accepted in the industry as a
meaningful amenity
• Southern Area Buildings – the buildings located to the south (4350, 4340 and 4320 Von Karman)
will now be better served with 178 additional spaces (284 new spaces, less 106 eliminated
spaces) in a freestanding parking structure (Area 2) that is closer to their buildings
• Northern Area Buildings – the buildings located to the north (4910 Birch and 4490 and 4440
Von Karman) will be served by the remaining 199 surface parking spaces in Area 8 and
committed 276 spaces in our apartment podium garage in Area 7. As shown in the attached
table, this results in a 45-stall surplus against the applicable 1 space per 300 square feet
standard outlined in the Planned Community text for this area
• John Hancock Building – in addition to the fact that surface lots surrounding this building are
well below capacity (per our Parking Study), the tenants of the John Hancock building (5000
Birch) have the exclusive use of a garage, owned and controlled by John Hancock, that is only at
30 percent capacity at peak usage
In closing, we hope you agree that we have engaged in a process that has arrived at the proper balance
between consideration for our neighbors and our community. We have support from the vast majority
of our neighbors. We continue to work with the one or two who are not yet concluded, but the issue
remaining seems to be primarily related to what is fair compensation for the impact to their businesses
during our two year construction period and not planning related. Thank you for the time that you take
from your lives to govern this process and thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
The Picerne Group

Re: The Residences at 4400 Von Karman
November 5, 2020, Agenda Item No. 3
________________________________________________________________
As noted in my Memorandum dated November 2, 2020, finding B.2.r on
handwritten page 50 of your staff report contains a scribe’s error and should
include additional facts. The memorandum addressed the issues assuming the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) determination would be delayed and occur
after the meeting. The FAA determination that the project does not present a
threat to air navigation has been received and is attached to this memorandum.
The following language replaces what is found in the draft resolution and what is
contained in the November 2, 2020, memorandum:
“r. LU 6.15.3 – Airport Compatibility. Require that all development be
constructed in conformance with the height restrictions set forth by
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Federal Aviation Regulations
(FAR) Part 77, and Caltrans Division of Aeronautics, and that residential
development be located outside of the 65 dBA CNEL noise contour
specified by the 1985 JWA Master Plan
The Project site located at 4400 Von Karman Avenue is located outside
the 65 dBA CNEL contour as that noise contour is mapped by the 2008
JWA Airport Environs Land Use Plan that accounts for the most recent
update to the JWA Master Plan. The site is entirely outside of the 60 dBA
CNEL noise contour. The proposed Planned Community Development
Plan Regulations limits future construction to 75 feet above ground level.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) conducted an aeronautical
study of the proposed project pursuant to applicable Federal regulations
and has determined no hazard to air navigation for the project.”

** DETERMINATION OF NO HAZARD TO AIR NAVIGATION **
The Federal Aviation Administration has conducted an aeronautical study under the provisions of 49 U.S.C.,
Section 44718 and if applicable Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, part 77, concerning:
Structure:Building 4400 Von Karman
Location:Newport Beach, CA
Latitude:33-39-57.79N NAD 83
Longitude:117-51-41.41W
Heights:47 feet site elevation (SE)
71 feet above ground level (AGL)
118 feet above mean sea level (AMSL)
This aeronautical study revealed that the structure does not exceed obstruction standards and would not be a
hazard to air navigation provided the following condition(s), if any, is(are) met:
It is required that FAA Form 7460-2, Notice of Actual Construction or Alteration, be e-filed any time the
project is abandoned or:
_____ At least 10 days prior to start of construction (7460-2, Part 1)
__X__ Within 5 days after the construction reaches its greatest height (7460-2, Part 2)
Based on this evaluation, marking and lighting are not necessary for aviation safety. However, if marking/
lighting are accomplished on a voluntary basis, we recommend it be installed in accordance with FAA Advisory
circular 70/7460-1 L Change 2.
The structure considered under this study lies in proximity to an airport and occupants may be subjected to
noise from aircraft operating to and from the airport.
This determination expires on 05/03/2022 unless:
(a)the construction is started (not necessarily completed) and FAA Form 7460-2, Notice of Actual
Construction or Alteration, is received by this office.
(b)extended, revised, or terminated by the issuing office.
(c)the construction is subject to the licensing authority of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) and an application for a construction permit has been filed, as required by the FCC, within
Planning Commission - November 5, 2020

Page 2 of 4
6 months of the date of this determination. In such case, the determination expires on the date
prescribed by the FCC for completion of construction, or the date the FCC denies the application.
NOTE: REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD OF THIS DETERMINATION MUST
BE E-FILED AT LEAST 15 DAYS PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. AFTER RE-EVALUATION
OF CURRENT OPERATIONS IN THE AREA OF THE STRUCTURE TO DETERMINE THAT NO
SIGNIFICANT AERONAUTICAL CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED, YOUR DETERMINATION MAY BE
ELIGIBLE FOR ONE EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD.
This determination is based, in part, on the foregoing description which includes specific coordinates, heights,
frequency(ies) and power. Any changes in coordinates, heights, and frequencies or use of greater power, except
those frequencies specified in the Colo Void Clause Coalition; Antenna System Co-Location; Voluntary Best
Practices, effective 21 Nov 2007, will void this determination. Any future construction or alteration, including
increase to heights, power, or the addition of other transmitters, requires separate notice to the FAA.This
determination includes all previously filed frequencies and power for this structure.
If construction or alteration is dismantled or destroyed, you must submit notice to the FAA within 5 days after
the construction or alteration is dismantled or destroyed.
This determination does include temporary construction equipment such as cranes, derricks, etc., which may be
used during actual construction of the structure. However, this equipment shall not exceed the overall heights as
indicated above. Equipment which has a height greater than the studied structure requires separate notice to the
FAA.
This determination concerns the effect of this structure on the safe and efficient use of navigable airspace
by aircraft and does not relieve the sponsor of compliance responsibilities relating to any law, ordinance, or
regulation of any Federal, State, or local government body.
If we can be of further assistance, please contact our office at (847) 294-7575, or vivian.vilaro@faa.gov. On any

** DETERMINATION OF NO HAZARD TO AIR NAVIGATION **
The Federal Aviation Administration has conducted an aeronautical study under the provisions of 49 U.S.C.,
Section 44718 and if applicable Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations, part 77, concerning:
Structure:Building 4400 Von Karman
Location:Newport Beach, CA
Latitude:33-39-56.34N NAD 83
Longitude:117-51-33.81W
Heights:52 feet site elevation (SE)
71 feet above ground level (AGL)
123 feet above mean sea level (AMSL)
This aeronautical study revealed that the structure does not exceed obstruction standards and would not be a
hazard to air navigation provided the following condition(s), if any, is(are) met:
It is required that FAA Form 7460-2, Notice of Actual Construction or Alteration, be e-filed any time the
project is abandoned or:
_____ At least 10 days prior to start of construction (7460-2, Part 1)
__X__ Within 5 days after the construction reaches its greatest height (7460-2, Part 2)
Based on this evaluation, marking and lighting are not necessary for aviation safety. However, if marking/
lighting are accomplished on a voluntary basis, we recommend it be installed in accordance with FAA Advisory
circular 70/7460-1 L Change 2.
The structure considered under this study lies in proximity to an airport and occupants may be subjected to
noise from aircraft operating to and from the airport.
This determination expires on 05/03/2022 unless:
(a)the construction is started (not necessarily completed) and FAA Form 7460-2, Notice of Actual
Construction or Alteration, is received by this office.
(b)extended, revised, or terminated by the issuing office.
(c)the construction is subject to the licensing authority of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) and an application for a construction permit has been filed, as required by the FCC, within
Planning Commission - November 5, 2020
Item No. 3f Additional Materials Received By Staff

6 months of the date of this determination. In such case, the determination expires on the date
prescribed by the FCC for completion of construction, or the date the FCC denies the application.
NOTE: REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD OF THIS DETERMINATION MUST
BE E-FILED AT LEAST 15 DAYS PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. AFTER RE-EVALUATION
OF CURRENT OPERATIONS IN THE AREA OF THE STRUCTURE TO DETERMINE THAT NO
SIGNIFICANT AERONAUTICAL CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED, YOUR DETERMINATION MAY BE
ELIGIBLE FOR ONE EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD.
This determination is based, in part, on the foregoing description which includes specific coordinates, heights,
frequency(ies) and power. Any changes in coordinates, heights, and frequencies or use of greater power, except
those frequencies specified in the Colo Void Clause Coalition; Antenna System Co-Location; Voluntary Best
Practices, effective 21 Nov 2007, will void this determination. Any future construction or alteration, including
increase to heights, power, or the addition of other transmitters, requires separate notice to the FAA.This
determination includes all previously filed frequencies and power for this structure.
If construction or alteration is dismantled or destroyed, you must submit notice to the FAA within 5 days after
the construction or alteration is dismantled or destroyed.
This determination does include temporary construction equipment such as cranes, derricks, etc., which may be
used during actual construction of the structure. However, this equipment shall not exceed the overall heights as
indicated above. Equipment which has a height greater than the studied structure requires separate notice to the
FAA.
This determination concerns the effect of this structure on the safe and efficient use of navigable airspace
by aircraft and does not relieve the sponsor of compliance responsibilities relating to any law, ordinance, or
regulation of any Federal, State, or local government body.

NOTE: REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD OF THIS DETERMINATION MUST
BE E-FILED AT LEAST 15 DAYS PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. AFTER RE-EVALUATION
OF CURRENT OPERATIONS IN THE AREA OF THE STRUCTURE TO DETERMINE THAT NO
SIGNIFICANT AERONAUTICAL CHANGES HAVE OCCURRED, YOUR DETERMINATION MAY BE
ELIGIBLE FOR ONE EXTENSION OF THE EFFECTIVE PERIOD.
This determination is based, in part, on the foregoing description which includes specific coordinates, heights,
frequency(ies) and power. Any changes in coordinates, heights, and frequencies or use of greater power, except
those frequencies specified in the Colo Void Clause Coalition; Antenna System Co-Location; Voluntary Best
Practices, effective 21 Nov 2007, will void this determination. Any future construction or alteration, including
increase to heights, power, or the addition of other transmitters, requires separate notice to the FAA.This
determination includes all previously filed frequencies and power for this structure.
If construction or alteration is dismantled or destroyed, you must submit notice to the FAA within 5 days after
the construction or alteration is dismantled or destroyed.
This determination does include temporary construction equipment such as cranes, derricks, etc., which may be
used during actual construction of the structure. However, this equipment shall not exceed the overall heights as
indicated above. Equipment which has a height greater than the studied structure requires separate notice to the
FAA.
This determination concerns the effect of this structure on the safe and efficient use of navigable airspace
by aircraft and does not relieve the sponsor of compliance responsibilities relating to any law, ordinance, or
regulation of any Federal, State, or local government body.

[EXTERNAL EMAIL] DO NOT CLICK links or attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the
content is safe.
In relation to the above-referenced application, attached please find letters of support received from
the Koll Center master declarant, KCN A Management, and the owners of the buildings located at
4490 Von Karman and 4440 Von Karman. Additionally, we have received verbal assurances of
support from the owners of 5000 Birch. We have also attached a letter of support received from
The Chamber of Newport.
While we understand Planning Commission may have recently received letters requesting the
continuation of our hearing, we feel it is important to keep in mind that those 3 owners represent
only about 21% of the total square footage of the buildings in our area of The Koll Center Newport
and there is sufficient time between your decision this evening and the City Council’s action for us to
negotiate these private building owner, parking and other economic compensation issues.
Thank you, again, for your continued efforts and consideration on this matter.

Dear Chairman Weigand:
Re: Koll Center Residences at 4400 Von Karman
November 2, 2020
We are writing in support of the above reference project. We own the building at 4440 Von Karman
which is adjacent to the proposed project and we believe it will be a vibrant addition to Koll Center
Newport.
We are pleased with the addition of the proposed park, as wellfas additional green space. Additionally,
adding new structured parking will be considered an asset for our tenants.
Our building is well leased today, at over 90%. All of tenants have leased being fully aware of the
proposed development and have decided to join us as an occupant at 4440 Von Karman.
We believe the addition of a new neighbor at 4400 Von Karman will be accretive to our ownership.
I
Sincerely,
~a{awat

Koll Center City Planning Commission October 5, 2020 – Fred Fourcher
Slide Number
1. Honorable commissioners, I am Fred Fourcher, a resident of Corona Del
Mar since 1979, and an owner of 4340 Von Karman since 2013 (Picture of
the building from air) Slide 1
2. I am also CEO of Bitcentral, a software company that serves the
broadcast industry. Bitcentral occupies the 4th floor of 4340 Von Karman
(Office Lobby at Sunrise) Slide 2
3. We invested in Koll Center Newport because of the ambiance and
excellent views. This is my office looking towards the project where they
are proposing to turn my view of green trees into people’s apartment
windows. (Fred’s Office looking towards project) Slide 3
4. We have a unique Lake View for an office park. This is my view looking
towards the Pacific Club. If Koll can take away our views on one side of
the building, what’s stopping them from destroying the esthetics of the
office park in other areas? (View from my office looking at the Pacific
Club) Slide 4
5. It is hard to image how you could cram all those apartments into our little
parking lot. As a property owner who pays Koll Center Newport for our
common area, it is also hard to image them selling the common area,
developing it and pocketing the money. (Koll Center from Air) Slide 5
6. This development will have a negative impact on the surrounding
property owners. Koll’s primary responsibility should be to the building
owners who are paying them. (Koll Center from Air) Slide 6
7. The proposed parking garage that serves 5000 birch will take up this entire
area and destroy our views of the trees and sky. (View of Parking Lot
looking at the 4340 building) Slide 7
8. There are office condos on the 2nd and 3rd floors and many of the
property owners are attorneys. If you put that parking garage in front of
their windows you will have a flurry of lawsuits. (Picture of 4340 building
from parking lot with person on the balcony) Slide 8
9. With three years of construction this project will have a significant impact
on the ability to operate our business. Other property owners will have
difficulty in leasing space due to this project. Neither Koll nor the Picerne
group have offered compensation for this economic damage. This
common area serving the property owners should have never been sold
and project should never have gotten this far without involving the
owners. (Picture of 4340 Building from the lake) Slide 9
10. I would like to emphasize that the parking garage for 5000 Birch belongs
next to the building it is serving not next to 4340 Von Karman. (Parking
Garage Location map) Thank you and I ask the planning commission to
please delay their vote on this project until both Koll and Picerne have
addressed the needs of the property owners adjacent to this project. Slide
