HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Thursday, March 18, 2021, 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:
Collins Residence Appeal and Amendment - An amendment to a coastal development permit previously approved by the Zoning Administrator on October 15, 2020, allowing the demolition of a duplex and the construction of a new single-family residence. The project was appealed by the California Coastal Commission (CCC) on October 29, 2020, due to density concerns from the net loss of one unit (duplex to a single family). The applicant requests to amend the project and now proposes a three-story, 29-foot-tall, 2,234-square-foot single-family residence with a 421-square-foot JADU located above the attached 424-square-foot, 2-car garage. The revised project would no longer result in a loss of density.
If the revised Project is approved by the Planning Commission, CCC will have the ability to withdraw its appeal of the project, consistent with Section 21.64.035 (Appeal to the Coastal Commission) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC).
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15303 under Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) 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 NBMC Chapter 21.64. A fee is required to appeal any final action on a coastal development permit to the City Council. The project site is located within the appeal area of the coastal zone; therefore, final action by the City to approve a Coastal Development Permit may be appealed to the California Coastal Commission.
