The property was once the West Newport Community Center and the property is owned by the City. The site provides 40 parking spaces. On August 14, 2014, the Zoning Administrator approved Use Permit No. UP2013-024 (Attachment No. PC 2), to allow Pacifica to convert the West Newport Community Center to a private school for grades 9 through 12. Enrollment and staff was capped at 125 students and 15 staff based upon the availability of parking. On September 26, 2014, Pacifica entered in a 10-year lease agreement with the City for the use of property with options for renewal and purchase. The school has expanded over the past 3 years and is presently operating within the established limits. Current attendance is at 125 students and 15 faculty and staff. Instruction hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, August to June. From all accounts, Pacificahas operated in compliance with their permit and they have been responsive to neighbor concerns. Proposed Off-Site Parking Lot at 1499 Monrovia Avenue Property The off-site parking would be located on the southwest corner of 15th Street and Monrovia Avenue, which was recently purchased by the applicant. The property was developed in 1957 and is improved with a two-story, 17,000 square-foot office building and parking areas located on the north and south sides of the property. The building is presently vacant and fenced for security purposes. The lot is approximately a 500-foot walk along public sidewalks to the school campus. Students and faculty that use the off-site lot would walk near residential apartments as shown in Figure 1. 4 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 5 Figure 1 Project Description Pacifica is proposing to increase the school enrollment by 60 students, from 125 to 185, and an increase of faculty/staff from 15 to 18 employes with no physcial improvement or expansion of the existing school campus. If approved, the additional students would be served at the 15th Street campus starting in the fall of 2018. Pacifica proposes to have their staff and students use the off-site parking lot during the regular school hours and after hours for school-related activities, in addition to the parking available at the school campus. Student and staff parking for both lots will be by permit only and parking spaces will be numbered accordingly. Student drivers who are parking at the off-site parking lot will arrive early before school starts and will not be allowed to travel back to the off-site lot until the end of school day as Pacifica is closed campus during school hours. The students will cross the street at the intersection 15th Street and Monrovia Avenue. Pacifica will be making minor improvements to the off-site parking lot. The improvements include restriping of the existing drive aisles and parking stalls and reconstructing several Off-site parking Walking path School Residences 5 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 6 landscape planters. With the proposed improvements, the parking lot south of the building will yield a total of 25 parking spaces to be used by the students and faculty/staff. No physical improvements are proposed for the existing office building at this time. The building will remain fenced with no access availble to faculty/staff and students. Attachment No. PC 3 is the detail project description submitted by the applicant. The proposed increase in school enrollment and administrative staff requires an amendment to Use Permit No. UP2013-024, pursuant to the Zoning Code Section 20.54.070.C (Changes Approved by Original Review Authority). A conditional use permit is also required for required parking to be located off-site pursuant to Section 20.40.100 (Off-Site Parking). DISCUSSION Analysis General Plan The 15th Street property (school) is designated Public Facility (PF) by the General Plan Land Use Element. This designation is intended to provide public schools, cultural institutions, government facilities, community centers, public hospitals, and public facilities. The “private school” land use was determined consistent with the PF land use category with the Zoning Code that was updated in 2010. The existing school use is similar to the instructional programs and classes that were being provided by the City at this facility and it was found consistent with the PF designation in 2014. The use is not changing with the subject application. The Monrovia Avenue property (off-site parking) is designated RM (Multi-Unit Residential, 18 dwelling units per acre). The residential designation primarily supports multi-family residential development containing attached or detached dwelling units. The nonconforming office building is allowed to continue until February 2022, under an approved extension of the abatement period. The proposed use of the property is limited to off-site parking within the existing developed parking lots. The “parking facility” land use was also determined consistent with the RM land use category with the Zoning Code that was updated in 2010, and the off-site parking request is similar. Zoning Code The school property is zoned Public Facilities (PF), which allows private schools with the approval of a minor use permit pursuant to Section 20.26.020 (Special Purpose Zoning Districts Land Uses and Permit Requirements). As mentioned above, Minor Use Permit No. UP2014-008 was approved for the current private high school. As noted, the use is not changing and it would remain consistent with uses permitted by the PF zone. 6 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 7 The off-site parking property is zoned Multi-Unit Residential (RM). The existing office building is a nonconforming use subject to abatement pursuant to Section 20.38.100 (Abatement Periods). An abatement period extension was approved by a Hearing Officer on February 1, 2012, authorizing a 10-year extension of the nonconforming office use until February 1, 2022. Use of the existing parking lot is requested and no academic use of the building is requested. Increase in Student Enrollment and Parking Demand With regard to the proposed increase in student enrollment, Pacifica states that the existing school facility has the physical classroom capacity to absorb the proposed increase of 60 students. The Zoning Code does not provide a parking requirement for school uses, but requires the parking requirement to be established through the use permit procedure. Pacifica’s student population was “phased in” by of Use Permit No. UP2014-008 over a 4 year period with a maximum enrollment of 125 students and 15 employees: Year Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior Total Students 1 (2014-15) 0 0 0 0 0 2 (2015-16) 42 33 0 0 75 3 (2016-17) 45 40 35 0 120 4 (2017-18) 38 31 28 28 125 Pacifica was initially authorized to use 25 of the 40 on-site parking spaces because the City continued to provide recreational programing during the first two years. The City discontinued most activities at the site after the second year and the school was give full use of the 40 parking spaces. The use permit includes conditions requiring parking management and student pick-up and drop-off in a coordinated fashion. City retains access to the gymnasium and 25 spaces for public recreational activities only after school hours. Pacifica cannot schedule school athletic events on days when the City is using the gymnasium for exercise/recreational classes. The shared use of the lot is working effectively based upon staff observations and consultation with Recreation staff. Presently, Pacifica is on its fourth year of operation and has reached its maximum student enrollment and because of increased demand for services, the applicant is seeking this application. In order to accommodate the proposed increase of student enrollment and employees, a parking management plan was prepared by Kunzman Associates, Inc. and it is attached to this report (Attachment PC No. 4). The report concludes that with the combined on- and off-site parking spaces, 65 total, adequate parking will be provided to support the proposed increase in enrollment (185 students) and 18 faculty/staff with the implementation of the revised parking management plan. 7 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 8 School Parking and Drop-Off/Pick-Up Student drop-off and pick-up is the primary way students get to school and this mode of transportation is not expected to change with increased enrollment. According to the Kunzman parking management plan, the existing drop-off/pick-up layout and ushering program can accommodate the increased number of vehicles (16) anticipated with the increased enrollment. Pacifica will continue to implement its existing school parking policy that bans employees and students from parking on 15th Street and Monrovia Ave. The school assigns parking spaces with a permit and they provide oversight from 30 minutes before the beginning of each school day until 15 minutes after classes begin. The applicant will expand the assigned parking permit system to the off-site lot so everyone knows precisely where to park to increase efficiency. After-school activities will require students to park at the off-site parking lot. Pacifica also has parking arrangements with Coastline Community College and Carden Hall on an as-need basis for special events when larger attendance is anticipated. The school drop-off/pick-up activities will be limited to the 15th Street school campus only. Staff supervision to direct morning and afternoon traffic, and pick-up and drop-off activities will be continued. The school will be implementing a bus service with pickup locations in north Huntington Beach and in Newport Beach, at St. Matthew’s Church located at 2300 Ford Road to further reduce vehicle trips to the area. Pacific implements a highly managed parking and drop-off/pick-up scheme to minimize parking and vehicle maneuvering conflicts. They monitor operations daily and can respond to issues as they occur. Lastly, violators of the parking management plan or parking policies are subject to the school disciplinary process including suspension or expulsion. In this way, the school is better able to control the situation than a typical commercial use with off-site parking where there is no established relationship between the patron and the use. The proposed design and traffic circulation on the proposed off-site lot and the adjustment of queuing at the school campus to accommodate the increased drop-offs and pick-ups and the parking management plan have been reviewed and approved by City Traffic Engineer. Use Permit Amendment - School Expansion The following findings are required for the approval of the amended use permit. Facts in support of each finding is provided. A. The use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan. 8 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 9 The school property is designated Public Facility (PF) by the General Plan Land Use Element and schools both public and private are allowed. The school use is not changing with the subject application. The site is not subject to any specific plan. B. The use is allowed within the applicable zoning district and complies with all other applicable provisions of this Zoning Code and the Municipal Code. The zoning of the property is PF (Public Facilities) and private schools are allowed with a minor use permit. The existing school operates pursuant to UP2014-008 and the use is not changing. The minor use permit establishes required parking for schools. The Kunzman parking demand and parking management plan supports the finding that 65 total spaces between the two lots is adequate for the requested increase in enrollment with the implementation of the revised parking management plan. C. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the use are compatible with the allowed uses in the vicinity. The school presently operates at the 15th Street lot and is similar to that of the community center, with instructional classes, administrative offices and a gymnasium. With the implementation of a parking management plan, the school has proven compatible with surrounding residential and educational uses taking into account its existing operational characteristics including the hours, days, and months of operation. The basic operational characteristics of the school are not changing and the increased enrollment can be accommodated with the implementation of a revised parking management plan dated August 16, 2017. In this way, the expanded school will remain compatible with nearby uses. The subject property has a total of forty (40) parking spaces and an additional 25 spaces located approximately 500-feet away that will be sufficient to serve the use with the implementation of a parking management plan. The proposed parking management plan has been reviewed and approved by the City traffic engineer. It includes assigned parking, a prohibition of on-street parking, implementation of drop-off, pick-up and queuing plan, Implementation of transportation demand program to reduce number of vehicle trips generated (i.e. carpooling, school busing, bicycling). Finally, a list of conditions has been included in the draft resolution to ensure that Pacifica will operate in a functional and compatible manner with the existing uses in the vicinity. D. The site is physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, operating characteristics, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical) access and public services and utilities. The existing building is large enough to accommodate the increased enrollment and staff without any physical modification of the building. With the implementation of a 9 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 10 parking management plan, the high school will have adequate parking for their staff members and students with on-site and off-site parking areas. All student pick-up and drop-off will be done within the school’s parking lot on 15th Street. Physical access for emergency vehicles will be provided by the existing driveways within the subject property from 15th Street. The City traffic engineer has reviewed the revised parking management plan and is supportive of the proposed traffic queuing arrangement of the school parking lot. With the proposed conditions of approval, no conflicts in traffic circulation or queuing problems are anticipated and the existing driveways can accommodate vehicle access. The minor modifications to the Monrovia Avenue parking lot allow will bring the lot into conformance with parking lot design standards. All utilities to the school are presently provided and the increased enrollment will not necessitate expanding services. E. Operation of the use at the location proposed would not be detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, nor endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use. The expanded school activities can be physically accommodated within the existing building without making modification of the existing building or site, no construction is proposed. Off-site parking at the existing office parking lot at 1499 Monrovia Avenue will generate increased pedestrian traffic between the lots passing residential uses at the beginning and end of each school day. Given no instructional activities at the Monrovia Avenue property and a “closed” campus, there will be minimal foot traffic between the sites during instructional periods. With the implementation of the revised parking management plan student drop-off/pick-up and parking at both lots will support the expanded enrollment. The draft resolution includes conditions to ensure that potential conflicts with the surrounding land uses are minimized to the greatest extent possible. The operator is required to take reasonable steps to ensure the operation of the high school will not create a nuisance to the surrounding uses. Use Permit Off-Site Parking The following findings are required for the approval of off-site required parking. Facts in support of each finding are provided. A. The parking facility is located within a convenient distance to the use it is intended to serve. The off-site parking lot is approximately a 500-foot walk from the school property when crossing Monrovia Ave. at 15th Street. The parking lot is approximately a 1,200-foot walk to the school if students use the continuous sidewalk on Monrovia from the lot to the cul-de-sac at the end of Monrovia back to 15th Street and the school. These distances are convenient for students and staff to walk. 10 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 11 B. On-street parking is not being counted towards meeting parking requirements. No on-street parking was counted towards meeting the school’s off-street parking requirements. C. Use of the parking facility will not create undue traffic hazards or impacts in the surrounding area. The existing off-site parking lot will be modified to meet current dimensional standards. There is a limited number of spaces (25) and its use will not generate a significant number of trips. It will be used only for parking of passenger vehicles with a permit system. Spaces will be assigned to promote parking efficiency and the off-site lot will not be used for student drop-off or pick-up. As a result, the use of the off-site parking lot will not create an undue traffic conflict or affect the area negatively. D. The parking facility will be permanently available, marked, and maintained for the use it is intended to serve. Pacifica owns the off-site parking lot and a parking agreement is required to be recorded to ensure the parking is maintained for the use it is intended to serve. Summary Staff believes all of the findings necessary for project approval included in the Draft Resolution can be made with the implementation of the recommended conditions of approval. With the provision of adequate parking and implementation of the parking management plan as required by the conditions of approval, staff believes the expanded school and off-site parking will not prove detrimental to the surrounding neighborhood that includes residential uses. All applicable conditions of approval from Use Permit No. UP2014-008 have been carried forward and incorporated into the Draft Resolution, and approval of the subject application (Use Permit No. UP2017-008) will supersede the previous approval. Environmental Review This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 (Class 1, Existing Facilities) and Section 15311 (Class 11, Accessory Structures) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment. The Class 1 exemption consists of the operation or minor alteration of existing public and private structures involving negligible expansion of use. The existing school building can accommodate the increased enrollment without modification. The off-site parking lot presently exists and is not presently in use. The Class 11 exemption consists of construction, or replacement of minor structures accessory to commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, including small parking lots. The proposed minor improvements to the 11 Pacifica Christian High School, Expansion and Off-site Parking October 5, 2017 Page 12 existing off-site parking lot consist of modifying existing parking lot landscape planters and restriping the existing lot to meet current parking lot dimensional standards.

SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS. In accordance with NBMC Section 20.52.020(F), the following findings and facts in support of the findings for a use permit are set forth: Finding: A. The use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The school site is designated Public Facility (PF) by the General Plan Land Use Element. This designation is intended to provide public schools, cultural institutions, government facilities, community centers, public hospitals, and public facilities. The “private school” land use was determined consistent with the PF land use category with the Zoning Code was updated in 2010. The existing school use is similar to the instructional programs and classes that were being provided by the City at this facility and it was found consistent with PF designation in 2014. The use is not changing with the subject application. 2. The off-site parking site is designated RM (Multi-Unit Residential, 18 dwelling units per acre). The residential designation primarily supports multi-family residential development containing attached or detached dwelling units. The nonconforming office building is allowed to continue until February 2022, under an approved extension of the abatement period. The proposed use of the property is limited to off-site parking within the existing developed parking lots. The “parking facility” land use was also determined consistent with the RM land use category with the Zoning Code was updated in 2010, and the off-site parking request is similar. Finding: 15 DR A F T Planning Commission Resolution No. #### Page 3 of 13 07-11-17 B. The use is allowed within the applicable zoning district and complies with all other applicable provisions of this Zoning Code and the Municipal Code. Facts in Support of Finding: 1.

The proposed parking management plan has been reviewed and approved by the City traffic engineer. It includes assigned parking, a prohibition of on-street parking, implementation of drop-off, pick-up and queuing plan. 16 DR A F T Planning Commission Resolution No. #### Page 4 of 13 07-11-17 Implementation of transportation demand program to reduce number of vehicle trips generated (i.e. carpooling, school busing, bicycling). 3. Conditions of approval are required to ensure that Pacifica Christian High School will operate in a functional and compatible manner with the existing uses in the vicinity. Finding: D. The site is physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, operating characteristics, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical) access and public services and utilities. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The existing building is large enough to accommodate the increased enrollment and staff without any physical modification of the building. 2. With the implementation of the August 2017 parking management plan (revised), the high school will have adequate parking for their staff members and students with on-site and off- site parking areas. 3. All student pick-up and drop-off will be done within the school’s parking lot on 15th Street. Physical access for emergency vehicles will be provided by the existing driveways within the subject property from 15th Street. 4. The City traffic engineer has reviewed and approved the revised parking management plan and supports the proposed traffic queuing arrangement of the on-site and off-site parking lots. With the proposed conditions of approval, no conflicts in traffic circulation or queuing problems are anticipated and the existing driveways can accommodate vehicle access. 5. The minor modifications to the Monrovia Avenue parking lot will bring it into conformance with parking lot design standards. 6. All utilities to the school are presently provided and the increased enrollment will not necessitate expanding services. Finding: E. Operation of the use at the location proposed would not be detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, nor endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The facts in support of Findings A, B, C and D are incorporated herein by reference. 17 DR A F T Planning Commission Resolution No. #### Page 5 of 13 07-11-17 2. The facts in support of the required findings to approve off-site parking set forth below are incorporated herein by reference. 3. The expanded school activities can be physically accommodated within the existing building without making modifications to the existing building or site and no construction is proposed or necessary to accommodate the increased school enrollment and staff. 4. Pedestrian traffic will occur between the school and off-site parking sites that will pass by residential uses. The traffic will generally occur at the beginning and end of each school day because there will be no instructional activities at the off-site parking site and the school operates a “closed” campus. The amount of foot traffic is expected to be minimal and the students and faculty are subject to school oversite 5. The revised parking management plan shows that the sites will support the expanded enrollment with implementation of the provisions of the plan. The draft resolution includes conditions to ensure that potential conflicts with the surrounding land uses are minimized to the greatest extent possible. The operator is required to take reasonable steps to ensure the operation of the high school will not create a nuisance to the surrounding uses. In accordance with NBMC Section 20.40.100(B), the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth related to off-site parking: Finding: A. The parking facility is located within a convenient distance to the use it is intended to serve. Fact in Support of Finding: The off-site parking lot is approximately a 500-foot walk from the school property when crossing Monrovia Ave. at 15th Street. The parking lot is approximately a 1,200-foot walk to the school if students use the continuous sidewalk on Monrovia from the lot to the cul-de- sac at the end of Monrovia back to 15th Street and the school. These distances are convenient for students and staff to walk. Finding: B. On-street parking is not being counted towards meeting parking requirements. Fact in Support of Finding: On-street parking along 15th Street and Monrovia Avenue is not being counted towards meeting requirements for the existing school. The total combined parking at the existing school and proposed off-site parking lot would be 65 spaces, which is adequate to accommodate the proposed increase in student enrollment and staff/administration with the implementation of the revise parking management plan. 18 DR A F T Planning Commission Resolution No. #### Page 6 of 13 07-11-17 Finding: C. Use of the parking facility will not create undue traffic hazards or impacts in the surrounding area. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The existing off-site parking lot will be modified to meet current dimensional standards. 2. There is a limited number of spaces (25) and its use will not generate a significant number of trips. 3. It will be used only for parking of passenger vehicles with a permit system. Spaces will be assigned to promote parking efficiency and the off-site lot will not be used for student drop- off or pick-up. Finding: D. The parking facility will be permanently available, marked, and maintained for the use it is intended to serve. Facts in Support of Finding: The Applicant owns the off-site parking lot and a parking agreement is required to be recorded to ensure the parking is maintained for the use it is intended to serve.

ZA2014-031 A RESOLUTION OF THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH APPROVING MINOR USE PERMIT NO. UP2014-008 FOR PACIFICA CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL LOCATED AT 883 WEST 15TH STREET (PA2014-045) THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS. 1. An application was filed by Pacifica Christian High School, with respect to property located at 883 West 15th Street, and legally described as Parcel 2 of Parcel Map 88-285 requesting approval of a Minor Use Permit. 2. The applicant proposes to operate a private high school for grades 9 through 12 at the West Newport Community Center. 3. The subject property is located within the Public Facilities (PF) Zoning District and the General Plan Land Use Element category is Public Facilities (PF). 4. The subject property is not located within the coastal zone. 5. A public hearing was held on August 14, 2014, in the Corona del Mar Conference Room (Bay E-1st Floor) at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach. A notice of time, place and purpose of the meeting was given in accordance with the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Zoning Administrator at this meeting. SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION. 1. This project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (Section 15301, Article 19 of Chapter 3, Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act) under Class 1 (Existing Facilities). Class 1 exempts the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency’s determination. The use of the high school will be similar to the existing instructional programs that are currently being provided by the City at this facility. The operational characteristics of the proposed school, including classroom occupancy, hours of operation, parking needs, and traffic demand are similar to the existing City’s classes. Parking will be provided on-site and the implementation of a parking management plan and school busing program will mitigate any traffic impact to the area. 2. The Zoning Administrator finds that judicial challenges to the City's CEQA determinations and approvals of land use projects are costly and time consuming. In 28 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2014-031 Page 2 of 9 05-20-2014 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. REQUIRED FINDINGS. Minor Use Permit In accordance with Section 20.52.020.F of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth: Finding: A. The use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The property is designated PF by the General Plan. It allows for public schools, cultural institutions, government facilities, community centers, public hospitals, and public facilities.

Finding: B. The use is allowed within the applicable zoning district and complies with all other applicable provisions of this Zoning Code and the Municipal Code. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. A private school is permitted in the Public Facility (PF) Zoning District with the approval of a Minor Use Permit per Section 20.26.020 (Special Purpose Zoning Districts Land Uses and Permit Requirements). Finding: C. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the use are compatible with the allowed uses in the vicinity. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The high school use is similar to that of the existing community center, with instructional classes, administrative offices and a gymnasium. Additionally, the operating characteristics of the use are compatible with existing educational institutions and residential uses in the immediate area. 29 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2014-031 Page 3 of 9 05-20-2014 2. The subject property has a total of forty (40) parking spaces. Pacifica will be obligated to provide twenty-five (25) parking spaces to be used by the City for community programs during the first two (2) years of school operation and the school will have exclusive use of fifteen (15) parking spaces. Alternative options are placed in the event that the City will continue the programs and activities beyond Year 2 to ensure there would be adequate on-site parking provided. 3. A parking management plan has been prepared to ensure that adequate parking will be provided for the City’s programs and proposed school use. It contains the following stipulations: a. Designation of twenty-five (25) spaces for City programs during first two (2) years of school operation and alternative options should City programs will continue beyond Year 2 b. Implementation of transportation demand program to reduce number of vehicle trips generated (i.e. carpooling, school busing, bicycling) c. Implementation of drop-off, pick-up and queuing plan d. Implementation of on-site parking policy for students e. Implementation of on-street parking policy including enforcement and oversight 4. The proposed parking management plan has been reviewed and approved by the City traffic engineer. A list of conditions has been included in the draft resolution to ensure that Pacifica will be operated in a functional manner and compatible with the existing uses in the vicinity. Finding: D. The site is physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, operating characteristics, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical) access and public services and utilities. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. With the implementation of a parking management plan, the high school will have adequate parking for their staff members and students. All student pick-up and drop- off will be done within the school’s parking lot. Physical access for emergency vehicles will be provided along the existing driveways within the subject property. 2. The City traffic engineer has reviewed the plan and is supportive of the proposed traffic queuing arrangement of the school parking lot. With the proposed conditions of approval, no conflicts in traffic circulation or queuing problems are anticipated and the current locations and design of the driveways can accommodate the vehicle movements. E. Operation of the use at the location proposed would not be detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, or endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use. 30 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2014-031 Page 4 of 9 05-20-2014 Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The proposed high school has been reviewed and this approval includes conditions to ensure that potential conflicts with the surrounding land uses are minimized to the greatest extent possible. The operator is required to take reasonable steps to ensure the operation of the high school will not create a nuisance to the surrounding uses. SECTION 4. DECISION.

We understand that the City of Newport Beach no longer has a need to uKlize the Property and parking during school hours and PCHS would like the new CondiKonal Use Permit to reflect that. Parking under the new CondiKonal Use Permit will consist of forty (40) parking spaces at the Property and twenty-five (25) off-site parking spaces at 1499 Monrovia Avenue aber the parking lot at 1499 Monrovia is re-striped to conform to parking regulaKons. A new parking management plan has been prepared to analyze the addiKonal student and faculty numbers as well as the uKlizaKon of on and off-site parking. PCHS has recently acquired 1499 Monrovia Avenue. AddiKonal parking spaces on the north side of the property (actual number to be determined) are also available. PCHS proposes to have guests, staff and some student parking in the 883 W 15th St parking lot with the remaining students and staff parking in the 1499 Monrovia Ave parking lot. Student and staff parking for both lots will be by permit only and each permit will be assigned a specific parking space so that all permit holders will know exactly where they are to park. Parking spaces will be numbered accordingly. Two designated school Administrators will park in the Monrovia parking lot to insure oversight of the area. Student drivers who are parking in the Monrovia Avenue lot will be arriving between 7:30am and 7:50am and will cross the street at the southern intersecKon of 15th and Monrovia. Pacifica has a closed campus so students will not be traveling back to the Monrovia parking lot unKl the end of the school day at 2:40pm. Aber school co-curricular programs such as AthleKcs, Arts, and student government will naturally stagger the number of student drivers traveling to their vehicles at any one Kme in the abernoon.

The school proposes an increase from the currently approved student enrollment of 125 with staffing of 15 to a maximum student enrollment of 185 students with staffing of 18. 1. Project Parking and Circulation The 40 parking spaces at the main campus currently provides for the schools parking demand. To meet the increased parking demand for this proposed student enrollment increase, the school has secured the rights for additional off‐site parking (25 parking spaces) at 1499 Monrovia Avenue. The school drop off zone will continue to operate at the main campus.

Parking Demand Based on the existing parking usage at the main campus, the projected parking demand for the student enrollment and staffing increase to 185 students with 18 staff will be 65 parking spaces. The Pacifica Christian High School main campus and the auxiliary offsite parking location provides a combined total of 65 parking spaces that are projected to provide sufficient parking for the anticipated number of students and staff. 3. Transportation Demand and Parking Management The applicant will promote the use of ride‐share and alternate transportation to and from the site as well as require permit permission for students to park at the school to insure adequate parking on the campus and offsite parking locations. The Pacifica Christian High School shall continue to have several staff members directing the flow of traffic on the campus with the safety of the students and the quick turn over of vehicles during the drop‐off/pick‐up times as the key issues.The school shall provide oversight at the offsite parking lot such that students do not linger off campus and vehicles do not drop off students at the offsite parking lot. 4. School Drop Off/ Pick Up Zone Based on the drop off zone configuration, the number of vehicles which can be accommodated at the main campus drop off location and the projected number of students which will be dropped off, the main campus drop off location can accommodate the increased enrollment to 185 students with clearance of the area within 15.9 minutes at the beginning and ending of the school day. 44 1111 Town & Country Road, Suite 34 (714) 973-8383 5005 La Mart Drive, Suite 201 Orange, California 92868 www.traffic-engineer.com Riverside, California 92507 August 16, 2017 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES 19700 Fairchild Road, Suite 240 Irvine, CA 92612 Dear Mr. Strader: INTRODUCTION The firm of Kunzman Associates, Inc. is pleased to provide this parking management plan and traffic circulation review for the Pacifica Christian High School project in the City of Newport Beach. The purpose of the parking management plan is to review existing conditions, anticipate peak parking demand, and describe the implementation of a parking management strategy that will develop optimal parking conditions at the Pacifica Christian High School main campus and the auxiliary off‐site parking location. The purpose of the traffic circulation review is to recommend the most efficient drop‐off/pick‐ up procedure for the school and to review the number of vehicles, which can be processed at the school during these times. This report summarizes our methodology, analysis, and findings. Although this is a technical report, every effort has been made to write the report clearly and concisely. To assist the reader with those terms unique to transportation engineering, a glossary of terms is provided within Appendix A. PROPOSED PROJECT The Pacifica Christian High School is currently located at 883 West 15th Street in the City of Newport Beach. The school proposes an enrollment plan to allow the maximum student enrollment to increase from 125 to 185 students and an increase from 15 to 18 staff members. To meet the increased parking demand for this proposed student enrollment increase, the school has secured the rights for additional off‐site parking spaces at 1499 Monrovia Avenue. Figure 1 shows the school site and the proposed off‐ site parking location. This parking management plan, for the proposed increase student enrollment (+60 students) and staffing increase (+3 staff), reviewed the maximum student and staffing level for both parking demand and queueing of vehicles at the drop‐off/pick‐up location on the main campus Information on the applicant proposal is located in Appendix B. EXISTING CONDITIONS In 2014, the Pacifica Christian High School obtained a minor use permit to occupy an existing building at 883 West 15th Street in the City of Newport Beach. The existing building is also currently utilized by the 45 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 2 City of Newport Beach exercise/recreational program. The school’s minor use permit is for approval to occupy this site for a total student enrollment of 125 students and 15 staff members with a total parking space allotment of 40 parking spaces. See Appendix C for the Minor Use Permit for Pacifica Christian High School Zoning Resolution No. ZA2014‐031. In the vicinity of the project site, there are on‐street parking spaces with parking restrictions from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM for street sweeping. The parking on the south side of West 15th Street is prohibited on Fridays and the parking on the north side of West 15th Street is prohibited on Tuesdays (see Figure 1). The school main campus currently provides 40 on‐site parking spaces as shown on Figure 2. The proposed auxiliary off‐site parking spaces are located at 1499 Monrovia, and the property currently has 29 parking spaces, and will be reconfigured to meet City code with 25 parking spaces as shown on Figure 3. EXISTING PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN IMPLEMENTATION AT MAIN CAMPUS The goal of any parking management plan is to develop policies or programs that utilize parking resources in a more efficient manner. The majority of the parking management strategies recommended with the 2014 application were implemented such that the parking spaces at the main campus have met the parking demand. Implemented Strategies 1. On‐street parking is not being counted towards meeting parking requirements. 2. Develop a transportation demand program to reduce the number of vehicle trips generated. One or all of these items can be utilized to help reduce trips and parking to and from the school. a. Have a bulletin board with transit information to promote the use of public transit (see Appendix F). b. Provide bike rack for cyclists to utilize to encourage ridership. 3. Develop an official drop‐off/pick‐up policy for parents to increase the speed and efficiency of the traffic flow at these times (see Figure 4). a. Drop‐off location is for the loading and unloading of students only. b. Parents should remain in vehicle with the vehicle running at this location. c. Encourage parents to network and form carpools to reduce traffic congestion. d. Provide supervision of the traffic flow and personnel assisting with drop‐off/pick‐up times. e. Provide staff to direct traffic at the campus drop‐off location during the peak drop‐off/pick‐ up times. 4. Develop an official parking policy for permitting of parking spaces on‐campus. See Appendix E. a. The school will monitor demand with the parking permit application process and be proactive in increased enforcement or obtaining off‐site parking as necessary. 46 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 3 5. Enforce school parking policy and oversight. a. Provide written parking policy and drop‐off procedure reminders to parents/students at the start of each semester. b. Have personnel to monitor parking at the beginning of each school day. Some of the parking management strategies recommended with the 2014 application, were specified to be implemented when the school reached full student capacity. Beginning in the Fall 2017 to Spring 2018 school year, the Pacifica Christian High School will provide the following items as specified on the minor use permit: 2c. Provide bus service during the third1 year of the school operation which is 2017‐2018. 4b. Students must apply to receive a parking permit. 4c. Students who do not follow the parking guidelines will be towed at the owner’s expense. 4d. The school parking policy prohibits freshmen students from parking on‐campus. 5c. Install and enforce parking regulation signs, such as “School Parking Only”, to prevent spillover from adjacent land uses. Parking regulations, such as tow‐away, should be enforced to be effective. PARKING CODE The City of Newport Beach Parking Code requirements are included in Appendix D. The requirement for “Schools, Public and Private” is “as required by conditional / minor use permit”. The following section contains information on the existing parking conditional use permit with the City of Newport Beach. PARKING AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH FOR USE OF PARKING LOT For the first two years of operation (2014 to 2016), the school was obligated to provide 25 parking spaces to the City of Newport Beach in association with the use of the facilities as an exercise/recreational facility. See Appendix C for the Minor Use Permit for Pacifica Christian High School Zoning Resolution No. ZA2014‐031. During after school hours, the school continues to be obligated to provide parking spaces to the City of Newport Beach in association with the use of the gymnasium as an exercise/recreational facility. The shared use of the main campus parking lot at 883 West 15th Street between the school and the City can be achieved as the use of the exercise/recreational facility occurs after school hours and does not affect the school parking demand during the school hours of 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM during the months of August to June. The City’s Basketball program operates from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM Monday to Thursday with the option of Friday. All on‐campus after‐school activities are scheduled to allow access to the City programs on the days and times allocated to the City. The school use of the parking lot is substantially reduced after school hours and shall not exceed 15 parking spaces on the days and times that the City’s recreational program operates. If that happens, the school will need to accommodate the parking requirements with one of three options: 1 The school took possession of 883 W 15th Street in October of 2014 but did not begin operations until August of 2015. The 2017‐2018 school year will be the third year of school operation. 47 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 4 ■ Apply for parking variance with the City; ■ Obtain an off‐site parking agreement; ■ Reduce proposed enrollment to limit student drivers. TRANSPORTATION MODE SURVEY The previously approved parking management plan was based upon discussions with the City of Newport Beach staff and the applicant’s parking rate of students was based on a high school with similar characteristics. Brethren Christian High School is located in Huntington Beach and is a private Christian high school. To quantify the existing transportation mode for students at the school, the current student population was surveyed in May 2017. While the results of the previously used transportation modes are similar, there are slight variations based on the location and student population at this school. There is a slightly lower percentage of walk/bike/bus students at this school, which is in keeping with the fact that the vanpool service was only recently available. However, Pacifica Christian High School does have an active ride‐share program for families to find or provide transportation to and from the school. A total of 28 percent of the families participate in some form of multi‐student ridership either sibling or carpool. In addition, of the students that drive to school roughly 75 percent also bring a younger sibling to school as well. The remaining students were dropped‐off at the school designated drop‐off area. As indicated in Table 1, data from the schools transportation mode survey conducted in May 2017 is disaggregated to determine the various transportation modes of the students. Of the 96 students enrolled, there were responses from 93 students, which accounts for 97 percent of the student enrollment. All eligible to drive students responded to the survey and are included in the student drive rate. The percent of students using each mode of transportation is used for projections of future demand of each mode. Based on the transportation mode survey, 3 percent of the student body will walk, ride a bike or use mass transit to and from the school. This is a conservative estimate as the percentage of students who walk, ride bike or use transit should increase with the school provided bus service beginning in the Fall 2017 to Spring 2018 school year. Based on the transportation mode survey, 16 out of 93 students, or approximately 17 percent, drive themselves to school. All students of driving age who are eligible to drive (i.e., 100 percent of the seniors and juniors, and 50 percent of the sophomores) are included in the student driver estimate of the student drive rate. Currently, of the 40 students who are eligible to drive (0 seniors + 18 juniors + 43 sophomores), a total of 16 students actually drive and park at school, which equates to a 40% (16/40) student drive rate among the eligible students (see Table 2). Based on the transportation mode survey, 27 percent of the students ride‐share with another family or have multi‐sibling ridership ((13 drop‐off passenger + 12 sibling with student driver)/93 = 27%). To calculate a conservative value of the drop‐off vehicles, it is assumed that families that carpool carry only two students such that half of the percentage that carpools also contributes to the drop‐off vehicle count. For the purposes of this analysis, this data is representative of the future school demand. 48 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 5 MAXIMUM LIKELY PARKING DEMAND Parking Demand During School Hours The main campus parking lot at 883 West 15th Street and the auxiliary off‐site parking lot located at 1499 Monrovia provides 65 parking spaces (40 + 25 = 65). Both will be used to service the school parking demand during the school hours of 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM during the months of August to June. As indicated in Table 3, the expected parking demand is based on one parking space per school staff and one parking space per student driver (as calculated based on data from the schools transportation mode survey conducted in May 2017). Currently, with an enrollment of 96 students and 15 staff, Pacifica Christian High School requires 15 parking spaces for staff and 16 parking spaces for students. The parking lot currently has a 77.5 percent occupancy rate. The school has approximately 40 students that are eligible to drive. The approximate number of students eligible to drive was determined based on age. Based on the transportation mode survey, 16 students indicated that they drive themselves to school, thus yielding a student driver rate of 40 percent (16 actual student drivers / 40 eligible student drivers = 40%). These two factors yield the likely parking demand for student drivers that is depicted in Table 3. The Pacifica Christian High School proposes an increased enrollment from the permitted 125 students and 15 staff members with a total parking space allotment of 40 parking spaces to 185 students and 18 staff members with a total parking space allotment of 65 parking spaces on the main campus and the auxiliary parking lot (40 + 25 = 65). In the subsequent years of operation when the student enrollment reaches 185 students, approximately 115 students (40 seniors + 45 juniors + 25 sophomores) will be eligible to drive, thus increasing the student parking demand to 44 parking spaces (110 eligible student drivers * 40% student driver rate = 44 parking spaces). When parking spaces for the 18 staff members are added to the student demand and one parking space is reserved for the vanpool/bus service, the resulting parking demand for the school is 65 parking spaces (18 staff + 44 student drivers + 1 bus/vanpool + 2 guess). As shown in Table 4, the school year 2016‐2017 had a student enrollment of 96 students and 15 staff and main campus parking lot had an occupancy rate of 77.5 percent. With the additional parking spaces in the auxiliary parking lot, the school is projected to have adequate parking available for the currently permitted fourth year enrollment (2017‐2018) of 125 students, 15 staff and 1 van with a combined parking occupancy of 69.2 percent with the two parking lots. With the proposed fourth year enrollment (2017‐2018) increase to up to 149 students, 16 staff 1 vanpool and 2 guess, the combined parking occupancy of 78.5 percent with the two parking lots. With the proposed maximum student enrollment increase to 185 students, 18 staff, 1 vanpool and 2 guess, the combined parking occupancy of 100.0 percent between the main campus and auxiliary parking lot. Parking Demand After School The school parking demand at the main campus parking lot at 883 West 15th Street is substantially reduced after school hours and shall not exceed 15 parking spaces after 3:30 PM on school days. If that happens, the school will need to accommodate the parking requirements with one of three options. 49 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 6 The shared use between the school and the City exercise/recreational program can be achieved as use of the exercise/recreational facility occurs after school hours and does not affect the school parking demand during the school hours of 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM during the months of (August to June). Parking Demand During After School Activities and Special Events After school activities primarly include athletic events, which use the school gymasium. While the school must provide parking to the City after school hours, school athletic events are not scheduled on days when the City is using the gymnasium for exercise/recreational purposes. Other after school activities or clubs will require students to move vehicles to the off‐site parking, so that the City has access to the 25 parking spaces allocated for City use during after school hours. For special events which are anticipated to draw a larger percentage of the school population (such as an open house), the school has a parking “as needed” arrangement and schedules events in conjunction with the availablity of parking at the community college at the northwest corner of Monrovia Avenue and 15th Street. PARKING ALLOCATION On‐Site Parking Main Campus The Pacifica Christian High School main campus is located at 883 West 15th Street in the City of Newport Beach. This site provides parking for school student drivers and staff members with a total parking space allotment of 40 parking spaces. Off‐Site Parking Agreement ‐ Auxilary Parking Lot With the proposed increase in enrollment, the Pacifica Christian High School has obtained a parking agreement for the use of additional parking spaces for use by student drivers and staff members with a neighboring facility. The auxiliary parking lot is located at 1499 Monrovia Avenue (see Figure 3) and currently provides 29 parking spaces. This parking lot will be reconfigured to meet the City of Newport Beach parking code requirements and will provide 25 parking spaces2. The location of the 1499 Monrovia Avenue parking lot with relation to the school grounds is illustrated on Figure 4. The distance from the Monrovia parking lot to the school is approximately 500 feet when crossing at the cross‐street stop at Monrovia Avenue and West 15th Street and is 1,200 feet when using the contiguous sidewalk from the 1499 Monrovia Avenue parking lot to the cul‐de‐sac at the end of Monrovia Avenue then back to West 15th Street. SCHOOL PARKING POLICY The Pacifica Christian High School shall continue to provide oversight from 30 minutes prior to the beginning of the school day until 15 minutes after the beginning of each school day, to reinforce the ban on student parking on West 15th Street or Monrovia Avenue. Violators of any aspect of the school parking policy will be subject to school discipline, including potential suspension and even expulsion. As 2 Source: Pacifica Christian School Code Analysis Plan A0.021 by Gensler dated August 14, 2017. 50 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 7 the school is aware of the City’s concern over the possibility of off‐site parking and complaints by the neighbors, the school will enforce a strict NO on‐street parking policy with the students. The school shall have the discretion to set eligibility for parking on‐campus, and provide oversight to insure that the students do not park on West 15th Street or Monrovia Avenue. During the first three years of operation, the number of eligible student drivers has increased with the addition of sophomore and junior classes that are eligible to drive. During the fourth year of operation (Fall 2017 to Spring 2018), the school will establish a permitting system so that students will need a permit to park at the main campus and at the auxiliary off‐site parking lot. The school policy guidelines allow the school to monitor the parking demand and provide on‐site and off‐site enforcement of parking by the students. See the School Parking Policy provided in Appendix E. SCHOOL BUS SERVICE The Pacifica Christian High School shall provide bus service to students in the 2017‐2018 school year, which is the third year of the school's operation. Bus service will drop students off at Pacifica Christian High School no earlier than 7:15 AM in the morning, Monday through Friday during the school year. Bus service will pick students up no later than 3:30 PM, Monday through Friday during the school year. Bus stop locations have been selected based on the school population to maximize the number of students which can utilize the service. Bus service will pick up students at two locations: north Huntington Beach and Newport Beach at St. Matthew's Church. Additional bus stops will be added if student demand is sufficient. PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN The goal of any parking management plan is to develop policies or programs that utilize parking resources in a more efficient manner. Many of the following parking management strategies were previously recommended and implemented with the 2014 application to ensure demand was met at the main campus site. The following parking management strategies are recommended to ensure that the needs of the proposed land use are met without impacting on‐street parking and to ensure the City’s requirements are satisfied: 1. On‐street parking is not being counted towards meeting parking requirements. 2. The school shall continue to utilize a transportation demand program to reduce the number of vehicle trips generated. One or all of these items can be utilized to help reduce trips and parking to and from the school. a. Have a bulletin board with transit information to promote the use of public transit (see Appendix F). b. Provide bike rack for cyclists to utilize to encourage ridership. c. The school shall provide bus service for students during the school year. The school will periodically survey parent/students for demand of bus services and will add additional bus services as ridership demand warrants. 51 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 8 3. The school shall continue to utilize an official drop‐off/pick‐up policy for parents to increase the speed and efficiency of the traffic flow at these times (see Figure 4). a. Drop‐off location is for the loading and unloading of students only. b. Parents should remain in vehicle with the vehicle running at this location. c. Encourage parents to network and form carpools to reduce traffic congestion. d. Provide supervision of the traffic flow and personnel assisting with drop‐off/pick‐up times. e. Provide staff to direct traffic at the campus drop‐off location during the peak drop‐off/pick‐ up times. 4. The school shall implement the official parking policy for permitting of parking spaces on‐campus. See Appendix E. a. The school will monitor demand with the parking permit application process and be proactive in increased enforcement or obtaining an off‐site parking as necessary. b. Students must apply to receive a parking permit. c. Students who do not follow the parking guidelines will be towed at the owner’s expense. d. The school parking policy prohibits freshmen students from parking on‐campus. e. Student and Staff permits will be assigned a specific parking space to increase park lot efficiency by eliminating cruising for an unoccupied parking space. 5. The school shall enforce school parking policy and oversight. a. Provide written parking policy and drop‐off procedure reminders to parents/students at the start of each semester. b. Have personnel to monitor parking at the beginning of each school day for both the main campus and the auxiliary off‐site parking. c. Have personnel at the auxiliary off-site parking at the beginning/ending of each school day to ensure students do not linger off-campus and vehicles do not drop-off/pick-up students at the auxiliary parking location. d. Install and enforce parking regulation signs, such as “School Parking Only”, to prevent spillover from adjacent land uses. Parking regulations, such as tow‐away, should be enforced to be effective. SCHOOL TRAFFIC CIRCULATION Currently, a majority of the students driven to Pacifica Christian High School are dropped‐off by a parent. The school has implemented and utilizes all of the items listed to maximize the amount of vehicles, which can pass through the school during the relatively short, but seemly chaotic drop‐off/pick‐ up times associated with schools. Simple rules to increase the speed and efficiency of school circultation include: 1. Parent, staff, and student education of school circulation rules is the first step. 2. The school should provide staff to direct traffic on‐campus, and train staff to act as ushers. 52 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 9 3. Drop‐off at the school is strictly a drive through service, and drivers should not park or leave vehicle at any time. 4. Parents should not discuss issues at the curb, but call or schedule a meeting after school. 5. The circulation for the drop‐off should be marked with traffic cones, pavement arrows, or signs. 6. Provide right turn in‐out driveways to avoid potentially turning conflict during the drop‐off/pick‐ up times. 7. Outside deliveries by Fed‐Ex/UPS, trash pick‐up and property maintenance are scheduled to not occur during the drop‐off or pick‐up times of the school during the school year. 8. Space out the drop‐off/pick‐up times of students with staggered class schedules, before school tutoring program or extracurricular clubs. 9. Vehicles are required to pull forward and not stop at the front or center of drop‐off zone. Patron Education The Pacifica Christian High School should continue to provide information on the website and educate parents, students, and volunteers on the proper drop‐off/pick‐up process. Regular reminders of the drop‐off/pick‐up process from school officials to students and parents keep drivers informed and maintain efficient traffic flow. Information provided to parents should be clearly stated and provide consistent messages. Maps of the drop‐off/pick‐up area with traffic flow patterns should be included. Right Turn In / Right Turn Out The Pacifica Christian High School shall continue to have the entry and exit for the student drop‐off restricted to right‐turn in and right turn out during school drop‐off/pick‐up times. This reduces the potential for conflict between the two driveways and requires time for exiting vehicles to wait for a gap in traffic. Traffic Directing Personnel (On‐Campus) The Pacifica Christian High School shall continue to have several staff members directing the flow of traffic on the campus. The staff must keep in mind that the safety of the students and the quick turn over of vehicles are the key issues during the drop‐off/pick‐up times. Ushering Program The Pacifica Christian High School shall continue to have a valet type open the door service for the students at the designated drop‐off site. This prompts the parent to have their students ready to exit the vehicle on the proper side when the vehicle stops and quickly leave the school parking lot to maintain the drop‐off pace. At departure times, a staff member relays the name of the students to be picked up to the loading area so that the students are ready and waiting. See Appendix E for a full description. Staff Oversight (Off‐Site Parking) Students shall not be dropped‐off at the 1499 Monrovia Avenue auxiliary off‐site parking lot. The off‐ 53 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 10 site parking lot will be for staff and student parking only. The school shall provide oversight at the off‐ site parking lot such that students do not linger off‐campus and vehicles do not drop‐off students at the off‐site parking lot. SCHOOL DROP‐OFF/PICK‐UP ZONE The student drop‐off/pick‐up layout for the main campus as well as designated no drop‐off areas are shown in Figure 5. Students shall be dropped‐off at the 883 West 15th Street Pacifica Christian School site and not at the auxiliary off‐site parking lot. With the increase of enrollment, the queueing at the 883 West 15th Street school location has been reviewed to account for the increased number of students. With the revised number of vehicles expected to drop‐off students is 69 (for the previously approved enrollment of 125 students) and 85 (for an enrollment of 185 students), the 210 feet available at the drop‐off location meets the drop‐off guidelines for which new schools are designed. New schools are designed with special drop‐off lanes with the preferred design guideline length of the lane being 2.0 feet per student. The Pacifica Christian High School has approximately 75 feet for the designated loading zone and approximately 135 feet of queue space with a single lane operation for waiting vehicles to pull in to the unloading zone. At the designated drop‐off zone, the 75 feet can accommodate four vehicles for student drop‐off/pick‐up at one time. The 135 feet of single lane queuing accommodates seven vehicles preparing to drop‐off or pick‐up students. The student drop‐off/pick‐up schematic for the main campus is shown on Figure 6. Figure 6 shows the single lane queueing as well as an optional second queueing storage lane, which holds an additional 4 vehicles. Near the front of the two waiting queue lines, a school staff member directs lanes of vehicles to pull forward for students to disembark at the unloading zone. Parents are instructed to pull vehicles as far forward as possible to allow three students per time to get out and send the group of vehicles to the exit. All students exit the vehicles on the passenger side of the vehicle closest to the school so that they do not cross waiting vehicles or delay waiting queues. The number of vehicles associated with the drop‐off is 85 vehicles for a school enrollment of 185 students. This accounts for multi‐student ridership (carpools/siblings), students who drive themselves, and bus ridership. For the 20 to 30 minutes at the beginning/ending of school, the parking lot will need to process 3.4 vehicles per minute to accommodate 85 vehicles. Field observation of the Ushering Program shows that speed and efficiency of the drop‐off lane allows for the quick turnover of students at the beginning and ending of the school day. With vehicles platooned in groups of two to three, the clearance time for each vehicle group is approximately thirty seconds (half minute). For the Pacifica Christian High School with 85 vehicles, one drop‐off lane and four designated unloading locations, this equates to 16.3 minutes for the school to clear all of the vehicles dropping off students (85/4 * 0.25 minutes/student + 85/4 * 0.5 minutes/vehicle = 15.9 minutes). The school shall monitor the drop‐off/pick‐up queues to ensure that the vehicles move quickly and efficiently through the parking lot, and that queues do not impede traffic on the city street. 54 Mr. Tim Strader Jr., President STARPOINTE VENTURES August 16, 2017 www.traffic-engineer.com 11 CONCLUSIONS 1. The current school site is located at 883 West 15th Street in the City of Newport Beach and provides 40 parking spaces. For the first three years of operation from the Fall 2014 to the Spring of 2017, the parking lot at 883 West 15th Street has provided adequate capacity for the school staff and students. 2. The school proposes a student enrollment increase from 125 to 185 students and from 15 to 18 staff members. 3. The student population was surveyed to account for drop‐off vehicles, rideshare students and student drivers who park at the school. Based on the surveyed student‐parking rate obtained from Pacifica Christian high school, the maximum likely parking demand (including seniors, juniors and sophomores) is 40 percent of eligible student drivers. 4. In order to expand the student enrollment, an off‐site parking agreement with 1499 Monrovia Avenue has been obtained to increase the total available parking by 25 parking spaces. The new total combined parking is 65 parking spaces. 5. The combined parking at 883 West 15th Street and 1499 Monrovia Avenue is projected to provide adequate capacity for the proposed enrollment of 185 students and 18 staff members. 6. The school shall control usage of both parking lots with permits for students and signing. 7. The school shall provide oversight at 883 West 15th Street and 1499 Monrovia Avenue from 30 minutes prior to the beginning of school to 15 minutes after the beginning of school each school day to reinforce the student street parking ban. 8. The drop‐off/pick‐up location and queuing lanes shall accommodate 11 vehicles (single lane configuration) on‐site on the 883 West 15th Street Pacifica Christian School main campus parking lot. 9. The revised duration of the drop‐off/pick‐up time at the 883 West 15th Street Pacifica Christian School site is estimated to be approximately 16.5 minutes with the use of traffic directing personnel and the Ushering program to increase throughput efficiency. RECOMMENDATIONS Based upon the parking management plan, the likely parking demand of 65 occupied parking spaces can be accommodated by on‐site parking (40 parking spaces) and the parking agreement (25 parking spaces) for the increased program to 185 students and 18 staff members. As stated in the Parking Management Plan section, the school shall continue to use the procedures to manage parking demand and implement the noted additional procedures at the beginning of the new school year. 55 Mr. Tim S STARPOIN August 16 As stated increase t It has bee be of furt Sincerely, KUNZMAN Perrie Iler Senior Ass JN 5639a cc: Mr. Lu trader Jr., Pre NTE VENTURE 6, 2017 in the Schoo the throughp en a pleasure her assistanc N ASSOCIATE rcil, P.E. sociate uis Garcia, Ma esident ES ol Traffic Circ ut of the drop to service yo e, please do n S , INC. anager, PACIF www.tra culation secti p‐off/pick‐up our needs on not hesitate t FICA CHRISTIA affic-enginee 12 ion, the scho times at the this project. to call at (714 AN HIGH SCH er.com ool shall cont school.

CHANNELIZATION: The separation or regulation of conflicting traffic movements into definite paths of travel by the use of pavement markings, raised islands, or other suitable means to facilitate the safe and orderly movements of both vehicles and pedestrians. CLEARANCE INTERVAL: Nearly same as yellow time. If there is an all red interval after the end of a yellow, then that is also added into the clearance interval. CORDON: An imaginary line around an area across which vehicles, persons, or other items are counted (in and out). CYCLE LENGTH: The time period in seconds required for one complete signal cycle. CUL‐DE‐SAC STREET: A local street open at one end only, and with special provisions for turning around. 68 DAILY CAPACITY: The daily volume of traffic that will result in a volume during the peak hour equal to the capacity of the roadway.

DEMAND RESPONSIVE SIGNAL: Same as traffic‐actuated signal. DENSITY: The number of vehicles occupying in a unit length of the through traffic lanes of a roadway at any given instant. Usually expressed in vehicles per mile. DETECTOR: A device that responds to a physical stimulus and transmits a resulting impulse to the signal controller. DESIGN SPEED: A speed selected for purposes of design. Features of a highway, such as curvature, superelevation, and sight distance (upon which the safe operation of vehicles is dependent) are correlated to design speed. DIRECTIONAL SPLIT: The percent of traffic in the peak direction at any point in time. DIVERSION: The rerouting of peak hour traffic to avoid congestion. FORCED FLOW: Opposite of free flow. FREE FLOW: Volumes are well below capacity. Vehicles can maneuver freely and travel is unimpeded by other traffic.

VEHICLE MILES OF TRAVEL: A measure of the amount of usage of a section of highway, obtained by multiplying the average daily traffic by length of facility in miles. OFF‐SITE PARKING FACILITIES: Any parking lot, area, or structure for the temporary storage of motor vehicles, which serves a different use or business and does not directly adjoin the parking facility. PARKING AGREEMENT: An agreement, which guarantees the long‐term availability of the parking facility for the use as specified in the agreement. Typically, a parking agreement is a legally binding document that must be approved by the City, and recorded with the County Recorder’s Office. PARKING MANAGEMENT PLAN: A plan with strategies to manage parking efficiently. Individually, strategies may have modest impacts; however, when strategies are combined they have an additive effect. SHARED PARKING: The development and use of parking areas for joint use by more than one business or land use.

The Property is currently owned by the City of Newport Beach and leased to PCHS. ResoluIon No. ZA2014-031 approved PCHS's use at the Property with certain condiIons including a schedule of student enrollment (CondiIon 16) and staff (CondiIon 17) as follows: Year Total Students Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior Staff 1 0 0 0 0 0 10 2 75 42 33 0 0 10 3 120 45 40 35 0 10 4 & Beyond 125 38 31 28 28 15 1 73 PCHS would like this new CondiIonal Use Permit to increase the maximum student enrollment and staff numbers as follows: Under the exisIng Minor Use Permit, the City of Newport Beach has the right to conInue to use a porIon of the Property and parking. We understand that the City of Newport Beach no longer has a need to uIlize the Property and parking during school hours and PCHS would like the new CondiIonal Use Permit to reflect that. Parking under the new CondiIonal Use Permit will consist of forty (40) parking spaces at the Property and the right to use thirty (30) parking spaces at 1499 Monrovia under a two year license agreement. It has been determined that the parking lot at 1499 Monrovia needs to be re-striped to conform to parking regulaIons aber which there will only be 25 spaces available for use. A new parking management plan will be prepared to analyze the addiIonal student and faculty numbers as well as the uIlizaIon of on and off-site parking. PCHS is currently under contract to acquire 1499 Monrovia, in which case, addiIonal parking spaces on the north side of the property (actual number to be determined) will be available and no license agreement will be necessary. PCHS proposes to have guests, staff and some student parking in the 883 W 15th St parking lot with the remaining students and staff parking in the 1499 Monrovia Ave parking lot. Student and staff parking for both lots will be by permit only and each permit will be assigned a specific parking space so that all permit holders will know exactly where they are to park. Parking spaces will be numbered accordingly. Two designated school Administrators will park in the Monrovia parking lot to insure oversight of the area. Student drivers who are parking in the Monrovia Avenue lot will be arriving between 7:30am and 7:50am and will cross the street at the southern intersecIon of 15th and Monrovia. Pacifica has a closed campus so students will not be traveling back to the Monrovia parking lot unIl the end of the school day at 2:40pm.

In addiIon, certain school events, such as the annual school dedicaIon and the upcoming graduaIon (June 2018), are held at offsite locaIons that are able to accommodate larger aeendance. Finally, Pacifica acknowledges that, should addiIonal off-site parking be lost at any point in the future, Pacifica will need to roll back enrollment to the original enrollment approved under ResoluIon No. ZA2014-031. 3 75 APPENDIX C MINOR USE PERMIT – PACIFICA CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL 2014 76 RESOLUTION NO. ZA2014-031 A RESOLUTION OF THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH APPROVING MINOR USE PERMIT NO. UP2014-008 FOR PACIFICA CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL LOCATED AT 883 WEST 15TH STREET (PA2014-045) THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS. 1. An application was filed by Pacifica Christian High School, with respect to property located at 883 West 15th Street, and legally described as Parcel 2 of Parcel Map 88-285 requesting approval of a Minor Use Permit. 2. The applicant proposes to operate a private high school for grades 9 through 12 at the West Newport Community Center. 3. The subject property is located within the Public Facilities (PF) Zoning District and the General Plan Land Use Element category is Public Facilities (PF). 4. The subject property is not located within the coastal zone. 5. A public hearing was held on August 14, 2014, in the Corona del Mar Conference Room (Bay E-1st Floor) at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach. A notice of time, place and purpose of the meeting was given in accordance with the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Zoning Administrator at this meeting. SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION. 1. This project has been determined to be categorically exempt pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (Section 15301, Article 19 of Chapter 3, Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act) under Class 1 (Existing Facilities). Class 1 exempts the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency’s determination. The use of the high school will be similar to the existing instructional programs that are currently being provided by the City at this facility. The operational characteristics of the proposed school, including classroom occupancy, hours of operation, parking needs, and traffic demand are similar to the existing City’s classes. Parking will be provided on-site and the implementation of a parking management plan and school busing program will mitigate any traffic impact to the area. 2. The Zoning Administrator finds that judicial challenges to the City's CEQA determinations and approvals of land use projects are costly and time consuming. In 77 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2014-031 Page 2 of 9 05-20-2014 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. REQUIRED FINDINGS. Minor Use Permit In accordance with Section 20.52.020.F of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth: Finding: A.

A private school is permitted in the Public Facility (PF) Zoning District with the approval of a Minor Use Permit per Section 20.26.020 (Special Purpose Zoning Districts Land Uses and Permit Requirements). Finding: C. The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the use are compatible with the allowed uses in the vicinity. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The high school use is similar to that of the existing community center, with instructional classes, administrative offices and a gymnasium. Additionally, the operating characteristics of the use are compatible with existing educational institutions and residential uses in the immediate area. 78 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2014-031 Page 3 of 9 05-20-2014 2. The subject property has a total of forty (40) parking spaces. Pacifica will be obligated to provide twenty-five (25) parking spaces to be used by the City for community programs during the first two (2) years of school operation and the school will have exclusive use of fifteen (15) parking spaces. Alternative options are placed in the event that the City will continue the programs and activities beyond Year 2 to ensure there would be adequate on-site parking provided. 3. A parking management plan has been prepared to ensure that adequate parking will be provided for the City’s programs and proposed school use. It contains the following stipulations: a. Designation of twenty-five (25) spaces for City programs during first two (2) years of school operation and alternative options should City programs will continue beyond Year 2 b. Implementation of transportation demand program to reduce number of vehicle trips generated (i.e. carpooling, school busing, bicycling) c. Implementation of drop-off, pick-up and queuing plan d. Implementation of on-site parking policy for students e. Implementation of on-street parking policy including enforcement and oversight 4. The proposed parking management plan has been reviewed and approved by the City traffic engineer. A list of conditions has been included in the draft resolution to ensure that Pacifica will be operated in a functional manner and compatible with the existing uses in the vicinity. Finding: D. The site is physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, operating characteristics, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and medical) access and public services and utilities. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. With the implementation of a parking management plan, the high school will have adequate parking for their staff members and students. All student pick-up and drop- off will be done within the school’s parking lot. Physical access for emergency vehicles will be provided along the existing driveways within the subject property. 2. The City traffic engineer has reviewed the plan and is supportive of the proposed traffic queuing arrangement of the school parking lot. With the proposed conditions of approval, no conflicts in traffic circulation or queuing problems are anticipated and the current locations and design of the driveways can accommodate the vehicle movements. E. Operation of the use at the location proposed would not be detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, or endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use. 79 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2014-031 Page 4 of 9 05-20-2014 Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The proposed high school has been reviewed and this approval includes conditions to ensure that potential conflicts with the surrounding land uses are minimized to the greatest extent possible. The operator is required to take reasonable steps to ensure the operation of the high school will not create a nuisance to the surrounding uses. SECTION 4. DECISION.

This parking will be assigned on a first come, first serve basis with priority given to seniors, then juniors and sophomores respectively. Students who wish to operate vehicles on campus must complete a Parking Application Form. The student driver’s application must include: a. A photocopy of the current Proof of Insurance Card for the vehicle(s) being registered with the make and model of the vehicle clearly visible. b. The name and student I.D. number of the student making the application. c. The license plate # of the vehicle(s) being registered. d. Copy of student’s driver’s license. e. Both the student and the parent/guardian signature must appear on the bottom of the Parking Application Form. Students are also responsible for parking vehicles legally. If parked illegally, the vehicle is subject to being towed at the expense of the owner. The principal shall have the discretion to set eligibility for parking on campus. School policy states, "All students must park in student parking lots only and are NOT TO PARK IN RESIDENTIAL, STAFF, OR VISITOR AREAS." Designated student parking areas are located at 1499 Monrovia Avenue and 883 W 15th Street. Students who violate parking regulations may receive a traffic ticket or be towed. Student parking permits can be purchased at the office. All students must have a PARKING PERMIT to park on campus. PARKING PERMITS $125 for the year (August‐June) ANY REPLACEMENT at student's expense (NO EXCEPTIONS) Students are responsible for their parking permits. Student will display permit hanger in the front window of the vehicle. If a student changes vehicles, they are required to relocate the permit hanger to the other vehicle. If the permit hanger is lost, a student will be required to pay for a new one. YOUR PERMIT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. STUDENT VEHICLES WILL BE TOWED FOR THESE PARKING VIOLATIONS: Parking in any numbered parking space. (STAFF PARKING) Parking in a visitor parking space. Parking without a current parking permit hanger. Parking on the grass, median, NO PARKING areas, fire lanes or handicap spaces. STUDENT VEHICLES WILL BE TOWED WITHOUT WARNING AND AT STUDENT EXPENSE. Additional charges may result in type of vehicle and the amount of time left in storage. If you are involved in an accident on campus, exchange names, phone numbers and insurance information or leave a note with your name and phone number. Report all accidents immediately to the school and explain what happened. 103 VEHICLES ON CAMPUS Vehicles parked on school property are under the jurisdiction of the school. The school reserves the right to search any vehicle if reasonable suspicion exists to do so. Students have full responsibility for the security of their vehicles and will make certain they are locked and that keys are not given to others. Students will be held responsible for any prohibited objects or substances, such as alcohol, drugs, and weapons, that are found in their cars and will be subject to disciplinary action. Searches of vehicles, as well as general searches of school property, may be conducted at any time if there is reasonable suspicion to do so, with or without the presence of the student. If the vehicle subject to search is locked, the student shall be asked to unlock the vehicle. If the student refuses, the School shall contact the student’s parent(s). If parent(s) also refuse to permit the vehicle to be searched, the School may contact local law enforcement officials and turn the matter over to them. 104 APPENDIX F OCTA TRANSIT ROUTE INFORMATION 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 APPENDIX G USHERING PROGRAM 116 USHERING PROGRAM The Ushering Program is an organized manner to direct school traffic and facility the quick exit or entry of students from vehicles in a safe manner. The program improves vehicle throughput at the school drop‐off location as parents are directed to pull forward in the drop‐off zone and where to stop by school staff, and the student is assisted out of the vehicle by an usher. Conversely in the afternoon while the school staff member directs traffic to pull forward to the end of the pick‐up location, another usher can get the name of the students to be picked up from vehicles waiting in the queue. This insures that students are ready and attentive near the pick‐up location when the parent pulls forward. The key to the program is communicating the importance of the quick, efficient and safe manner of getting the parents to have their children ready to exit/enter the vehicle on the proper side when the vehicle stops in the drop‐off/pick‐up location. In the mornings, by opening the door of the vehicle, ushering the student out and away from the vehicle to the designated safe zone, the parent can leave quickly and without delay. In the afternoons, when parents pull forward with the student’s name displayed at the windshield, waiting students can quickly come forward to load into their vehicle. A detailed description of the Ushering Program is provided below. 1. VISIBILITY AND SAFETY Staff members or parent volunteers who serve as Ushers should were a high visibility vest, and direct traffic with large exaggerated arm movements to be easily seen and understood. It is also recommended that the Usher at the end of the drop‐off zone use a hand held stop sign to have the drivers stop at the end of the drop‐off zone. The drop‐off zone should be marked with a painted curb and paint on the pavement if necessary. The designated student waiting should be clearly marked behind a yellow safety line, away from traffic. Signs are an additional tool to keep the drivers focused on the quick and efficient loading and unloading of passengers. Use signs such as NO CELL PHONE ZONE, PULL FORWARD, REMAIN IN VEHICLE, DO NOT TURN OFF ENGINE, HAVE STUDENT READY TO DEPART VEHICLE, and DO NOT STOP IF STUDENT NOT READY FOR PICK‐UP. 2. WAVING AND POINT POSITION Usher(s) should direct (wave) drivers to PULL FORWARD in the drop‐off zone. Preferably, there should be one Usher per vehicle, which can be accommodated in the drop‐off zone. Such that several vehicles can safely have the students exit/enter at one time. Each Usher stands along the yellow safety line and with large arm movements, waves the drivers through the drop‐off zone so that drivers do not stop in 117 the middle of the drop‐off zone. The point position is the Usher at the far end of the drop‐off zone. As one group of vehicles departs the next group will pull forward to the point position again. It is this Usher's job to watch for the first vehicle in each group and to stop that vehicle at the end of the drop‐off zone (preferably with a hand carried STOP sign) before they exit. This Usher needs to be responsible and watch carefully. It has happened in the past that Ushers have waved drivers all the way through the drop‐off zone without them stopping to drop‐off. By having the Ushers waving the drivers to PULL FORWARD, the drop‐off zone is more fully utilized and the rate of vehicles through the school in greatly increased. 3. MAKE EYE CONTACT The purpose of making eye contact is to limit the potential hazard during the initial contact between the Usher and the approaching vehicle. We do not want to surprise any of the drivers when an Usher steps forward to open the vehicle door. The best time to make eye contact with the driver is when they enter the drop‐off zone and approach the Usher waving them forward. Instruct the Ushers that eye contact is ideally made through the windshield as the driver approaches and is looking in their direction. If this is not possible due to inattention or distraction, then instruct them to look through the passenger side window as the vehicle pulls up alongside the Usher. Stress the importance of this step to ensure the safety of the Ushers. You will need to explain to the Ushers the reason for making eye contact and how making eye contact involves both looking at the driver, as well as having the driver looking at them. 4. OPEN THE DOOR Students will leave the vehicle quicker and will less distraction when the Usher opens the door. It is simple but an effective way to speed the unloading of students. Ushers should be trained on door etiquette and safety. Explain to the Ushers that they must wait behind the yellow safety line until the approaching vehicle comes to a complete stop before they step forward. They should also pause for a second after the vehicle stops. This allows ample time for the Usher to determine whether the door will be opened by the student passenger, or whether the Usher should open the door to assist the student in quickly leaving the vehicle. If the door begins to open, the Usher should grab the door handle and continue to open it to its fully opened position. This is important to allow the student passenger the maximum amount of space to exit the vehicle. Once the door is at its maximum opened position, the Usher should lend whatever assistance is necessary to expedite the exiting of the student from the vehicle. This may entail grabbing a backpack, lunch box or school project. Note: Caution the Ushers to exercise care and ask before grabbing at school projects to avoid any damage to the 118 project. During this step, it is very important to stress to the Usher that they are not permitted to step down off the curb and into the street unless absolutely necessary. This is to eliminate the obvious danger of having feet in the street in the path of a potentially rolling vehicle tire should the driver inadvertently take his foot off the brake while unloading the child. It has been our observation of the Ushering Program that most drivers do not place the vehicle in park, but rather just stop with their foot on the brake. Vehicles do roll when the driver is distracted by unloading passengers. Instruct the Ushers that if they cannot reach the vehicle door while standing on the curb, then they will not be able to open the door. Passengers may and will step into the street and this is a concession we will have to allow when necessary. 5. SAY SOMETHING NICE Of all the steps of the program, this step really adds the personal touch that the parents just love. Once the student passenger is out of the vehicle, having the Usher say a simple, "Have a nice day or farewell" signals the driver that all is well and they may proceed. We find that much of the typical morning stress experienced by many parents (i.e., kids getting up late, traffic, bad weather etc.) seems to go away with these few nice words from our Ushers. In addition, we really want them to leave with a good feeling about the school and its students. This however is not the time to answer questions or begin a conversation. Ushers should politely tell parents that they cannot talk now and to please call the school when they have reached their designation. 6. CLOSE THE DOOR Once the Usher has wished the parent a nice day, they should close the door. The Usher should take care to not close the door on their hand. The rule of thumb is that only one hand is used to close the door completely. In this way the Usher does not develop the bad habit of using their other hand to lend on the vehicle as they close it. The next potential problem when closing the door is if the door does not close all the way. For safety reasons, the Usher should not immediately step forward toward the vehicle in order to re‐close the door without re‐establishing eye contact with the driver. If eye contact is reestablished and the driver indicates to the Usher that they are aware the door is not closed all the way and would like the Usher to re‐close the door, then the Usher should step forward and re‐close the door. However, if the Usher is not able to make eye contact with the driver, the Usher should remain behind the yellow safety line and let the driver drive away. In general the door's safety catch will not come open if the safety catch has been properly engaged. The door may rattle and bother the driver but it is designed to stay closed. The issue of automatic doors also comes into play during this step. If the Usher has identified the vehicle as having an automatic door, the Usher would then allow the 119 driver to close it automatically. If the door is not an automatic sliding door or it is a normal vehicle door, instruct the Ushers that some of these doors are quite heavy, and that they will need to give the door a fairly hard shove to get them closed. Tell them it is OK to close the door a little harder than they think is necessary at first until they get the feel of how much force is required (this will come after a few days of working). 7. CLEAR THE ZONE Once the Usher has closed the door, he/she is then ready to step back behind the yellow safety line. This is very important because we want everybody out of the drop‐ off zone when the vehicles begin to move. Instruct the Ushers that not only are they responsible for getting themselves out of the drop‐off zone, but they are also responsible for ensuring that no one else is walking in the drop‐off zone near them. This would include any arriving students walking down the sidewalk, as well as arriving students who just exited vehicles. Once the drop‐off zone is clear, the Usher should begin to wave their arms to encourage the vehicles to clear the drop‐off zone so the next group of vehicles can enter. SUPERVISOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES The school should have a supervisor responsible for watching the Ushers to insure they follow safety procedures correctly. Their eyes should constantly be scanning the drop‐off zone to watch for any deviation and should not be distracted by questions from observers or pedestrians. Ushers should routinely be reminded that the reason for specific curb side rules is for their safety and the safety of the students. 120 1111 Town & Country Road, Suite 34 Orange, California 92868 (714) 973-8383 121 Attachment No. PC 5 Plans 122 IN T E N T I O N A L L Y BL A N K PA G E Gensler Tel 949.863.9434 Fax 949.553.1676 4675 MacArthur Court Suite 100 Newport Beach, CA 92660 United StatesPACIFICA CHRISTIAN SCHOOL SEPTEMBER 12, 2017 USE PERMIT APPLICATION 883 W 15th St Newport Beach, CA 92663 07.3425.000 USE PERMIT APPLICATION SEPTEMBER 12, 2017 PACIFICA CHRISTIAN SCHOOL 883 W 15th St Newport Beach, CA 92663 GENSLER PROJECT NUMBER: 07.3425.000 SHEET NUMBER SHEET NAME A0.001 STUDENT DROPOFF/PICKUP DIAGRAMS A0.020 SITE PLAN -

Project Plans 1 From:Allen Adams <allenadamsmd@gmail.com> Sent:Tuesday, October 03, 2017 6:59 PM To:Biddle, Jennifer; Garciamay, Ruby; Mackinen, Traci Subject:PA2017-066 Proposed expansion Hello, I want to register my opposition to the proposed expansion of Pacifica Christian High School’s enrollment and operations at 883 W 15th St. I am unable to attend the meeting in person due to prior out-of-town commitments and ask that this request be registered in lieu of attendance. I live at the Nautical Mile condominium complex adjacent to the school complex, specifically 17 Shellprint Court. My condo is directly adjacent to the open area in front of the school entrance. Due to my proximity to the school and the necessity to keep my windows open year-round for ventilation, I am exposed to considerable noise pollution, both from student activities and frequent construction at the school. I have on several occasions needed to register a noise complaint with the Newport Beach police department when outdoor student activity continued late into the evening, especially after 11 PM. Noise pollution from the school is frequent not only during usual weekday school hours, which might be tolerable, but also in evenings and on weekends frequently. Previously, when this area was a public playground and summer school, noise from the common outdoor area would occur during daytime hours, usually the afternoon, but would abate at night and occur infrequently on weekends. This arrangement was acceptable. Since the school has moved in, the noise pollution is much worse. I would have a great concern that expanding the current operations at the Pacifica Christian school would worsen the noise pollution problem already present, and further degrade the quality of life experience at the adjacent private homes. Thanks for your assistance in this matter.
