HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Thursday, December 05, 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:
Lido Isle Hedge Heights Code and LCP Amendments – Amendments to Newport Beach Municipal Code
(NBMC) Title 20 (Planning and Zoning) and NBMC Title 21 (Local Coastal Program Implementation Plan) to
raise maximum hedge height limitations in front setbacks abutting stradas on Lido Isle from 42 inches to 60
inches.
Pursuant to the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the
amendments are statutorily exempt from the CEQA in accordance with Section 21065 of CEQA and State
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060 (c)(2), 15060 (c)(3), and 15378. The proposed action is also exempt
from the CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA
applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Lastly,
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15265(a)(1), local governments are exempt from the requirements
of CEQA in connection with the adoption of a Local Coastal Program. The Amendments do not authorize
development that would directly result in physical change to the environment.
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. Administrative procedures for appeals
