HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Thursday, August 22, 2019, at 6:30 p.m. or soon thereafter as
the matter shall be heard, a public hearing will be conducted in the Council Chambers at 100 Civic
Center Drive, Newport Beach. The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach will consider the
following application:
The Garden Office and Parking Structure - A coastal development permit to demolish an existing
restaurant/office building and associated surface parking lot, and to construct a new 47-space, two-level
parking structure and a 2,830-square-foot office building. A conditional use permit is required to
authorize the parking structure adjacent to residentially zoned property. A modification permit is required
for 12 tandem parking spaces on the first and second floor levels. The project includes hardscape,
drainage, and landscape improvements. The proposed development complies with all applicable
development standards including height, setbacks, and floor area limits.
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15332 - Class 32 (Infill) of the State CEQA
(California Environmental Quality Act) Guidelines.
All interested parties may appear and present testimony in regard to this application. If you challenge
this project in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you raised at the public hearing or in
written correspondence delivered to the City, at, or prior to, the public hearing. The application may be
continued to a specific future meeting date, and if such an action occurs, additional public notice of the
continuance will not be provided. Administrative procedures for appeals are provided in the Newport
Beach Municipal Code Chapters 20.64 and 21.64. Fees are required to appeal any final action on the
applications to the City Council. The project site is not located within the appeal area of the coastal
zone; therefore, final action by the City on the applications may not be appealed to the California Coastal
Commission.
The agenda, staff report, and corresponding documents will be available by end of business day on the
Friday preceding the public hearing, and may be reviewed at the Community Development Department
Permit Center (Bay C-1st Floor), at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, CA 92660 or at the City of
Newport Beach website at www.newportbeachca.gov/planningcommission. Individuals not able to attend
the meeting may contact the Planning Division or access the City’s website after the meeting to review
the action on this application. All mail or written communications (including email) from the public,
residents, or applicants regarding an agenda item must be submitted by 5 p.m. on the business day
immediately prior to the meeting. This allows time for the Planning Commission to adequately consider
the submitted correspondence.
