Box 1768, Newport Beach, CA 92658-8915 949-644-3200 Fax: 949-644-3229 www.newportbeachca.gov NOTICE OF INCOMPLETE FILING April 23, 2019 Laidlaw Schultz Architects Attn: Jonathan Yee 3111 Second Avenue #1 Newport Beach, CA 92625 Application No. Coastal Development Permit No. CD2019-003 (PA2019-023) Address 215 Riverside Avenue Please be advised that after reviewing the subject application, your submittal has been deemed incomplete and further information is required before we are able to proceed with the application process. City staff recommends covering or alternatively screening the parking areas to minimize view impacts from Cliff Drive Park, which is identified as a public view corridor. Section 21.30.100 (Scenic and Visual Quality Protection), subsection D(7) suggests that landscaping, fencing, parked cars, and other nonstructural elements that block views and access to the harbor should be minimized. Since this parking structure may potentially be utilized during late night hours, staff recommends enclosing the second level or adding a carport cover and additional landscaping to reduce noise and visual impacts from Cliff Drive Park and adjacent residential properties. The following documentation is required to complete the application: 1. Application. A modification permit is required to authorize a tandem parking configuration for the size or location of parking spaces, and access to parking spaces within the parking structure in accordance with Section 20.52.050 (Modification Permits) of the Zoning Code. Consider removing the tandem parking configuration and returning the design to its original conf iguration to eliminate the need for valet operations on-site or apply for a modification permit. 2. Valet Operation Plan. A valet operations plan should be provided to support the proposed tandem configuration and operation of the structure. The valet operations plan will be reviewed by the Public Works Department to their satisfaction. 3. Project Description. The Mariners’ Mile Design Guidelines suggest that buildings should incorporate nautical materials and elements (Refer to Page 59-60 of Pdf). Please update the project narrative to describe how the project is consistent with F:\Users\PLN\Shared\PA's\PAs - 2019\PA2019-023\Correspondence\PA2019-023_Incomplete Ltr_2.docx Page 2 this style. Discuss the proposed building materials and architectura l style in more detail. 4. Project plans. Please provide three full size (24-inch by 36-inch) and four reduced (11-inch by 17-inch) sets of revised plans, which include the following updated information: a. Remove the proposed gates to the parking structure. The locations pose a queuing issue to gain entry to the structure. b. Identify and dimension the awning projections on the site plan and floor plans. Dimension the clearance below each awning on the exterior elevations. c. Consider adding additional landscaping to screen the site and parking areas from Cliff Drive Park. Please update the view simulation from Cliff Drive Park, Sheet A.2, to show the revised project. Consider adding additional landscape screening from this viewpoint and update the landscape planting plan accordingly. d. The Mariners’ Mile Design Guidelines suggests that palms such as the Washingtonia Filifera (the non-invasive relative to the Washingtonia Robusta) with a minimum 8-foot trunk height should be used along Riverside Avenue. 5. Supporting Studies. a. CPPP. Provide a Construction Pollution Prevention Plan (CPPP) for the proposed project in addition to the preliminary WQMP. b. Noise Study. Revise the noise study to consider potential valet operations and car alarms, particularly during the evening hours. 6. Electronic copy. All of the above submittal items are required to be submitted in electronic format (i.e., CD-ROM or PDF via email). Include an electronic copy of the project description and justification as well. Please note, project plans have been routed to Building, Public Works, and Fire and their comments are will be routed once they are received (comments requested by May 7, 2019). Upon verification of completion, the application will be processed and scheduled for a Zoning Administrator Hearing.
