Hi Liz,
Following up to our conversation, Jacob and I would like to formally withdraw our modification
application. We have decided to pursue a construction plan for a remodel and addition that places a
conforming garage on the alley.
We look forward to a partial refund of our fees.
Thank you,
Mimi and Jacob Gonzales

Regarding:
Proposed Residence Addition & Remodel for
The Gonzales Residence
536 San Bernardino Avenue
Newport Beach, CA. 92663
Cardoso Consulting Job Number: 2018-711
Dear Building Official,
The purpose of this letter is to describe the intended project in detail and
provide information in order to receive a Modification Permit for a non-
compliant garage.
The Gonzales Family is proposing a 356 square foot first floor addition to add
2 additional bedrooms, 2 additional bathrooms and enlarge the existing
kitchen and dining area. A loft area will also be added.
The project will also include the addition of a 480 square foot ADU (Accessory
Dwelling Unit) above the existing garage. The ADU will be accessed by some
exterior stairs and will have a private bedroom, full bath and kitchen as well
as an area for laundry.
The garage does not meet the minimum 20’-0” x 20’-0” minimum interior
clearance. Since the garage length cannot be extended towards the front due to
the setback limitation and extending the garage towards the rear would
involve a costly foundation modification then we would prefer to leave the
existing 19’-5” depth. The width of the existing garage is limited by the
setback on one side and on the opposite side, expanding the garage would
interfere with the entrance pathway. For these reasons, we are requesting a
modification permit for the garage to remain as is.
Very truly yours,
Cardoso Consulting

Please have the preparer update the affidavit and provide any new or modified labels
as needed. You may also prepare them from scratch.
5. Please note that a topographical survey will be required as part of the future plan
check – you do not need to provide at this time but I wanted to make sure you were
aware. You still need to establish grade using the four reference points I have marked
on the plans. You should be comfortable with the proposed height, understanding
that the topographical survey will give you specific points to measure the height at
plan check.

Dwelling Unit. A fee of $384 is required to review all new accessory dwelling units.
