DISCUSSION
Land Use and Development Standards
The subject property is located in the RM Coastal Zoning District, which provides for
multi-unit residential developments containing attached or detached dwelling units
and is consistent with the City’s Coastal Land Use Plan, General Plan, and Zoning
Code. A coastal development permit is required and the property is not eligible for a
waiver for de minimis development because the property is located in the Coastal
Commission Appeal Area.
The subject property is legally described as Lot 1 of Block 20 of Map of First Addition
to Newport Beach.
The property currently consists of one legal lot developed with a single-family
residence. The neighborhood is predominantly developed with two- and three-story
single and multi-family residences. The proposed three-story design, bulk, and
scale of the development is consistent with the existing neighborhood pattern of
development and expected future development (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Aerial Image
The proposed single-family dwelling and accessory structures conform to all
applicable development standards, including floor area limit, setbacks, height, and
off-street parking as evidenced by the project plans and illustrated in Table 1 below.

Hazards
A Coastal Hazards Report was prepared by Geosoils, Inc. on November 17, 2020.
The project site is separated from the water by a boardwalk/bike trail, as well as a
wide sandy beach. The site is approximately 350 feet from the mean high tide line.
The report concludes that the highest high tide elevation (currently 7.7 feet NAVD
88) will not exceed 10.65 feet (NAVD 88) using the low-risk aversion projected sea
level rise (2.9-foot increase) over the 75-year design life of the structure based on
estimates for sea level rise provided by the State of California Sea-Level Rise
Guidance 2018. The report states that the estimated sea level rise over the next
75 years, using the Medium-High Risk Aversion, is potentially 6 feet (13.7 feet
NAVD 88). Additionally, the site has not historically been subject to any wave
overtopping, nor is overtopping waters over the next 75 years expected to reach
the subject site, even under extreme conditions. Based on the data provided, the
study provides no recommendations necessary for shoreline protection devices
and concludes that coastal hazards will not impact the property over the next 75
years, as the proposed project has minimal risk from flooding. The finish floor
elevation of the proposed dwelling is 13.25 feet (NAVD 88), which complies with
the minimum 9.0-foot (NAVD 88) elevation standard.
As conditioned pursuant to Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC) Section
21.30.030(C)(3)(i)(iv) (Bulkheads for nonresidential and residential waterfront
development), the property owner will be required to enter into an agreement with
the City waiving any potential right to protection to address situations in the future in
which the development is threatened with damage or destruction by coastal hazards
(e.g., waves, erosion, and sea level rise). The property owner will also be required to
acknowledge any hazards present at the site and unconditionally waive any claim to
damage or liability against the decision authority, consistent with NBMC Section
21.30.015(D)(3)(c) (Waterfront Development, Development Standards). Both
requirements are included as conditions of approval that will need to be satisfied prior
to the issuance of building permits for construction.

The property is located in an area known for the potential of seismic activity and
liquefaction. All projects are required to comply with the California Building Code
(CBC) and Building Division standards and policies. Geotechnical investigations
specifically addressing liquefaction are required to be reviewed and approved prior
to the issuance of a building permit. Permit issuance is also contingent on the
inclusion of design mitigation identified in the investigations. Construction plans are
reviewed for compliance with approved investigations and the CBC prior to building
permit issuance.
Public Access
The project site is located on the Balboa Peninsula between the nearest public road
and the sea. Implementation Plan Section 21.30A.040 (Determination of Public
Access/Recreation Impacts) requires that the provision of public access bear a
reasonable relationship between the requirement and the project’s impact and be
proportional to the impact. In this case, the project replaces an existing single-family
residence with a new single-family residence. Therefore, the project does not involve
a change in land use, density or intensity that will result in increased demand on
public access and recreation opportunities. Furthermore, the project is designed and
sited so as not to block or impede existing public access opportunities.
The project site is not located adjacent to a coastal view road, public viewpoint, public
park, beach, or public accessway, as identified in the Coastal Land Use Plan. The
nearest public viewpoint is the Newport Pier, which is located over 1,000 feet away
from the project site. The site is located on the landward side of the West Ocean
Front public boardwalk, and does not affect views of the ocean from the boardwalk.
The project may be located within the viewshed of distant public viewing areas.
However, the project will replace an existing single-family residence with a new
single-family residence that complies with all applicable Local Coastal Program
(LCP) development standards and maintains a building envelope consistent with the
existing neighborhood pattern of development. Therefore, the project does not have
the potential to degrade the visual quality of the Coastal Zone or result in significant
adverse impacts to public views.
Water Quality
The applicant provided an Erosion Control Plan to implement temporary Best
Management Practices (BMPs) during construction to minimize erosion and
sedimentation and to minimize pollution runoff and coastal waters derived by
construction chemicals and materials. The Erosion Control Plan will be reviewed
by the City’s Engineer Geologist. Construction plans and activities will be required
to adhere to the approved Erosion Control Plan.
Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 21.35.050 (Water Quality and Hydrology
Plan), due to the proximity of the development to the shoreline and the
4

Tmplt: 04/03/18
development containing more than 2,500 square feet of impervious surface area,
a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) is required. A WQMP prepared by
Thomas M. Ruiz, Civil Engineer, dated December 8, 2020, has been submitted and
will be reviewed by the City’s Engineer Geologist. The WQMP includes a polluted
runoff and hydrologic site characterization, a sizing standard for BMPs, use of a
LID approach to retain the design storm runoff volume on site, and documentation
of the expected effectiveness of the proposed BMPs.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Section 15303 under Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the
CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no
potential to have a significant effect on the environment. The Class 3 exemption includes
the construction of limited numbers of new, small structures, including one single-family
residence. The proposed project is a new single-family residence located in the RM Coastal
Zoning District. There are no known exceptions listed in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2
that would invalidate the use of these exemptions.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Notice of this public hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to all owners and
residential occupants of property within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site (excluding
intervening rights-of-way and waterways), including the applicant, and posted on the
subject property at least 10 days before the scheduled hearing, consistent with the
provisions of the Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared on the agenda for this
meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the City website.
APPEAL PERIOD:
This action shall become final and effective 14 days following the date the Resolution is
adopted unless within such time an appeal or call for review is filed with the Community
Development Director in accordance with the provisions of Title 21 (Local Coastal
Implementation Plan) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Final action taken by the City
may be appealed to the Coastal Commission in compliance with Section 21.64.035 of the
City’s certified LCP and Title 14 California Code of Regulations, Sections 13111 through
13120, and Section 30603 of the Coastal Act. For additional information on filing an appeal,

SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
In accordance with Section 21.52.015 (Findings and Decision) of the Newport Beach Municipal
Code, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
A. Conforms to all applicable sections of the certified Local Coastal Program.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The proposed development complies with applicable residential development standards
including, but not limited to, floor area limitation, setbacks, height, and parking.
a. The maximum floor area limitation is 3,019 square feet and the proposed floor area
is 3,011 square feet.
b. The proposed development complies with the required setbacks, which are 5 feet
abutting the West Ocean Front, 10 feet along the property line abutting the
residence at 2001 Court Avenue, and 3 feet along each side property line.
c. The highest guardrail/parapet is below 28 feet from established grade and the
highest ridge is 33 feet from established grade. The proposed development
complies with all height requirements.
d. The proposed development provides a two-car garage, meeting the minimum
garage requirement for a single-family residence.
e. The proposed development complies with the minimum 9.0-foot North American
Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88) top of slab elevation requirement for interior
living areas of new structures.
2. The neighborhood is predominantly developed with two- and three-story single and
multi-family residences. The proposed three-story structure’s design, bulk, and scale of
the development is consistent with the existing neighborhood pattern of development
and expected future development.
3. A Coastal Hazards Report was prepared by Geosoils, Inc. on November 17, 2020. The
project site is separated from the water by a boardwalk/bike trail, as well as a wide sandy
beach. The site is approximately 350 feet from the mean high tide line. The report
concludes that the highest high tide elevation (currently 7.7 feet NAVD 88) will not
exceed 10.65 feet (NAVD 88) using the low-risk aversion projected sea level rise (2.9-
foot increase) over the 75-year design life of the structure based on estimates for sea
level rise provided by the State of California Sea-Level Rise Guidance 2018. The report
states that the estimated sea level rise over the next 75 years, using the Medium-High
9

Risk Aversion, is potentially 6 feet (13.7 feet NAVD 88). Additionally, the site has not
historically been subject to any wave overtopping, nor is overtopping waters over the
next 75 years expected to reach the subject site, even under extreme conditions. Based
on the data provided, the study provides no recommendations necessary for shoreline
protection devices and concludes that coastal hazards will not impact the property over
the next 75 years, as the proposed project has minimal risk from flooding.
4. The finish floor elevation of the proposed dwelling is 13.25 feet (NAVD 88), which
complies with the minimum 9.0-foot (NAVD 88) elevation standard.
5. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 21.35.050 (Water Quality and Hydrology Plan), due
to the proximity of the development to the shoreline and the development containing
more than 2,500 square feet of impervious surface area, a Water Quality Management
Plan (WQMP) is required. A WQMP prepared by Thomas M. Ruiz, Civil Engineer, dated
December 8, 2020, has been submitted and will be reviewed by the City’s Engineer
Geologist. The WQMP includes a polluted runoff and hydrologic site characterization, a
sizing standard for BMPs, use of a LID approach to retain the design storm runoff volume
on site, and documentation of the expected effectiveness of the proposed BMPs.
8 The property is located in an area known for the potential of seismic activity and
liquefaction. All projects are required to comply with the California Building Code (CBC)
and Building Division standards and policies. Geotechnical investigations specifically
addressing liquefaction are required to be reviewed and approved prior to the issuance of
building permits. Permit issuance is also contingent on the inclusion of design mitigation
identified in the investigations. Construction plans are reviewed for compliance with
approved investigations and the CBC prior to building permit issuance.
9. The project site is not located adjacent to a coastal view road, public viewpoint, public park,
beach, or public accessway, as identified in the Coastal Land Use Plan. The nearest public
viewpoint is the Newport Pier, which is located over 1,000 feet away from the project site.
The site is located on the landward side of the West Ocean Front public boardwalk and
does not affect views of the ocean from the boardwalk. The project may be located within
the viewshed of distant public viewing areas. However, the project will replace an existing
single-family residence with a new single-family residence that complies with all applicable
Local Coastal Program (LCP) development standards and maintains a building envelope
consistent with the existing neighborhood pattern of development. Therefore, the project
does not have the potential to degrade the visual quality of the Coastal Zone or result in
significant adverse impacts to public views.

Finding:
B. Conforms with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal
Act if the project is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline of any
body of water located within the coastal zone.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The project site is located on the Balboa Peninsula between the nearest public road and
the sea. Implementation Plan Section 21.30A.040 (Determination of Public
Access/Recreation Impacts) requires that the provision of public access bear a reasonable
relationship between the requirement and the project’s impact and be proportional to the
impact. In this case, the project replaces an existing single-family residence with a new
single-family residence. Therefore, the project does not involve a change in land use,
density or intensity that will result in increased demand on public access and recreation
opportunities. Furthermore, the project is designed and sited so as not to block or impede
existing public access opportunities.
2. The project site is located between 20th and 21st Street, which are identified by the Coastal
Land Use Plan as vertical access locations. Additionally, the site is located adjacent to the
West Ocean Front boardwalk, which is identified as lateral access to the beach. The project
does not interfere with the existing nearby access to the beach.

Good morning,
Can you please add this to the additional materials for PA2020-355? These are revisions to the plans
from the architect. It does not affect the public notice since it does not change the square footage of
the home. The changes will be brought up during the hearing.
Thank you,
