Re: Crab Cooker Restaurant Minor Conditional Use Permit UP2016-029
Dear Mr. Zdeba:
The Crab Cooker team is responding to the City's Notice of Incomplete Filing dated July
5, 2106. As you are aware, we have already submitted the necessary documents for a
Lot Merger (LM2016-007). Concurrent with this submittal plans are being submitted to
the Building Department to begin the review process parallel to the Minor Conditional
Use Permit.
Enclosed are an updated project description, radius map and labels, title report, existing
site photos, and three (3) sets of plans full-size plans and four (4) sets of reduced size
plans. We look forward to your review and feedback. Additionally, we are requesting
the project be allowed to keep both the benches and awnings as they exist today,
encroaching in to the public right of way. Subsequent to this submittal, a Heritage Sign
Designation will be applied for to keep the historic sign that is a registered trademark as
part of The Crab Cooker brand and key to clientele's recognition of the building.
Should have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact
me at marice@mconsensus.com or (949) 433-4261.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely, I) .~~,Ii' , I' . JJ( w~£u

Minor Conditional Use Permit

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Crab Cooker is a legal nonconforming family business that is applying for a minor
conditional use permit. Through no fault of their own, the Crab Cooker building
sustained structural damage caused by the permitted construction activities of the
neighbor to the north. The damaged sustained requires significant repairs that will
require building permits -and at the direction of the City those "repairs" necessitate a
complete teardown. Since the Crab Cooker does not have an existing use permit, this
application is being submitted in order to facilitate the process of obtaining a Minor Use
Permit so building permits will be subsequently issued.
It should be noted that the damage to the Crab Cooker resulted from a series of
occurrences beginning in January of 2014 (see attached Damage Chronology).
Damage continued and the two property owners began communications and worked
together to formulate a solution, as well as, work with their respective insurance
companies. The City of Newport Beach was part of this process and issued building
permits in October, 2014 for foundation repairs. However, this work was never
completed as the foundation continued to fail and more damage continued. Nearly a
year later, September, 2015, a solution was agreed upon and the City of Newport
Beach conducted a preliminary conceptual review and a subsequent Design Review
Committee meeting in October, 2015. Throughout this entire process the insurance
companies have conducted tests, and city approved borings to fully assess the damage.
As referenced above, there is a detailed matrix of the damage, city engagement and
process to date as part of this submittal entitled Damage Chronology.
The Crab Cooker Restaurant and Fish Market has been in operation at the current
address for over 65 years. The Crab Cooker is a family dining establishment that has
been a Newport Beach landmark for locals and visitors alike for many decades. The
restaurant operates without a bar but serves wine and beer to its dining customers.
Current operating hours are from 9:00 am until 11 :00 pm daily. No changes to current
hours of operations are being requested. The historic use of this property is consistent
with the General Plan as a visitor serving use. With the exception of proposed building
repairs/improvements, the minor conditional use permit should accurately reflect all of
the historic and current uses that the Crab Cooker has enjoyed while proudly serving
the residents and visitors of Newport Beach for well over one half a century.
The Crab Cooker filed an application for a lot line merger on October 24, 2016, as the
building currently occupies 2 lots, parcel numbers are 147-120-15 and 147-120-14. The
existing Crab Cooker building is 5,084 sq. ft. The two lots that the building is built upon
are 2700 sq. ft. each. The existing lot coverage is a legal non-conforming percentage of
94.14%.
As mentioned prior, as a result of construction activities carried out by the neighbor to
the north, the Crab Cooker building received structural and foundation damage to the
building. Since the building will require significant repairs and at the direction of the City

Minor Conditional Use Permit
those "repairs" necessitate a complete teardown, this application is also requesting the
creation of a 427 square-foot outdoor dining patio as part of the improvements to
enhance the business and serve the growing needs of the neighborhood. Another
benefit of this improvement is that it will include new ADA compliant restrooms with the
required number of toilets, urinals, and lavatories per current code. Additionally, the
electrical, mechanical, and plumbing will be upgraded to be Title-24 compliant.
As the Crab Cooker's historic and current property use has no on-site or other parking,
no additional parking should be required as a result of outdoor patio dining. Per code,
no additional parking is required for an outdoor dining patio that seats a maximum of 49
patrons. The existing indoor dining count will remain the same. The new building will
maintain essentially the same overall exterior look of the Crab Cooker that artists have
come from all over to paint for decades.The westerly Newport Blvd. facing side will
remain almost identical as it has stood for over 65 years. The 22nd St., southfacing side
will also remain almost identical, with the addition of an ADA ramp. We intend to
improve the appearance of the east rear facing side of the building by relocating the 427
square feet from the patio as an upper level storage area. This area will provide new
equipment screening. In addition, we are requesting to increase the height of the
building to accommodate the current code and FEMA requirements, while staying under
the allowable height limit in this zone. We are also requesting a 10% increase in the
gross area for storage -not usable public space -as this will help to minimize the
number and frequency of delivery truck trips onto the peninsula and into the arcade.
As discussed with community development and other departments, this submittal is
requesting to beautify the arcade area by enclosing the existing trash dumpster area
that has been historically used for over 65 years. The trash dumpsters are and have
been located in a loading zone designated specifically for the Crab Cooker on the east
side of the property in the arcade. We are requesting to continue to use the loading
zone at the rear of the building for trash dumpster storage and to allow the trash
dumpsters to merely be put in an attractive covered enclosure that is in the same style
as the existing building where they have been stored for over 65 years. There are many
benefits to this request such as containing debris, visual and odder improvement and
many others for all concerned. This will require the city approve an encroachment
permit.
There will be no changes to the iconic building signage, colors or materials; however, as
part of this process an application for a heritage sign designation will be sought. As has
been the case for over 65 years, it is The Crab Cooker's hope to continue to enjoy the
same uses and privileges we have, including our historic signs and awnings that are
trademarked as part of The Crab Cooker brand and key to our clientele's recognition of
the building.

Section 12413.1 of the California Insurance Code, effective January 1, 1990, requires that any title insurance
company, underwritten title company, or controlled escrow company handling funds in an escrow or sub-escrow
capacity, wait a specified number of days after depositing funds, before recording any documents in connection
with the transaction or disbursing funds. This statute allows for funds deposited by wire transfer to be disbursed
the same day as deposit. In the case of cashier's checks or certified checks, funds may be disbursed the next day
after deposit. In order to avoid unnecessary delays of three to seven days, or more, please use wire transfer,
cashier's checks, or certified checks whenever possible.
