INTRODUCTION
Th Residential Growth Element addresses the question of, "How
many eople are to live in Newport Beach, and in what kind of
housing. " , and includes "Residential Zoning Policies " and the
"Residents 1 Growth Limits" resulting from these policies . The
residential ning policies are based primarily on policies con-
tain ed in the a opted General Plan Policy Report and the substan-
tial citizen inpu received during the General Plan program. It
is apparent from ci ' zen reaction that an "Unlimited Growth"
policy is opposed and at some limitation on residential growth ,
below the levels contain in the "Trend-Growth" projection made
by the City ' s economic cons tants , Development Research Asso-
ciates, is desired. Therefore the proposals reflect a "Limited-
Growth" policy which , it is felt meets the previously-adopted
policies and the general "desires o the community. "
The Effect of Residential Growth on Su ort Systems
In attempting to determine the effects o various residential
growth levels on such support systems as wa r and sewer and the
school district, etc . , discussions were held with the appropriate
City departments and the Newport Mesa School Dis ict. It is
recognized through the deliberations of the governi bodies of
the City that there are physical constraints (in term of limited
capacity of the physical systems ) and major "economic th shold
points" (in terms of a drastic "jump" in the costs of prov ing
services ) and that the City will continue to monitor these con
straints as it determines the need to do so. By the use of ten
( i )
year revenue and expenditure projections and by managing needed
apital improvements , the City shall assure a favorable budget
po ure .
The Ci ' s transportation planning consultant, Alan M. Voorhees
and As so 'ates , Inc. , has indicated that the most severe possible
cutback in sidential growth (limiting all residential develop-
ment to low-d sity single-family) would result in some reduction
in potential tra• fic volumes on certain links of the street
system. However, a measure as drastic as limiting a•ll residen-
tial development to s gle-family does not seem reasonable and
may not be desirable , wh n viewed against other objectives such
as : 1 ) encouraging redev lopment .in some areas ; 2) preserv-
ing some open space within d elopments ; and 3) encouraging
innovative residential developm •ts . Thus the effect of resi -
dential growth limits , within the ange of reasonable alterna-
tives on the total transportation s tem, does not have major
significance , although it is obvious t t the "lower the- better"
still holds in terms of future traffic ge ration .
The Effect of Residential Growth on the Envir ment
The major environmental problems which result f m population
growth are regional in nature and will not be mate 'ally affected
by a difference of ten or twenty thousand persons . wever, it
is apparent that a reduction in potential residential g wth is
favorable to the local environment, in "smaller-scale" en ' ron-
mental terms . The City of Newport Beach• also may be able ' to et
an example, and otherwise influence other local agencies in th
region to reduce potential population growth .
( ii )
In view of these considerations , it can be said that the major
. ssues are "Community Character" and "Quality of the Living Ln-
vi nment. " There are apparently no physical and economic con-
strai is to residential growth-, within the limited range from
the low t feasible limit and the "Trend-Growth" projection.
The questi h is not "What can we support?" o'r "What can we
afford?" Ne question is , "What do we want?"
z Consideration o residential growth limits involves more 'than
just a limit on th potential population -- the future "Commun-
ity Character" and "Q lity of the Living Environment" in New-
port Beach will be as m h affected by the type of residential
development as total popul ion . Therefore , the proposals in
this report reflect considers ion for the "housing mix" (percen-
tage of single-family, duplex, d multi -family units) and the
size of residential structures .
Based on the policies Vn the adopted neral Plan Policy Report,
the Residential Growth Element proposes
1 ) Assure a continuing predominance of ingle-family
and duplex units and limit the potenti 1 number
of multi -family units .
2) Limit the size of residential structures to revent
massive, boxy and out-of-character buildings a
overbuilding of small lots .

GENERAL CITY-WIDE RESIDENTIAL ZONING POLICIES

4 . The size of all future residential buildings shall be
, through use of
floor area ratios , lot coverage limits , and building
bulk regulation . Regulations , including revised zoning,
shall be developed for each area to
.e. the character of 44w residential
neighborhoods and to, provide outdoor living area and
landscaping .
5 . Variances for additional units on undersized lots shall
not be granted.
6. Standards for provision of adequate off-street parking
for all residential uses shall be adopted.
- 1 -
Buildable acreage is defined as follows : _ -
ildable acreage includes the entire site ,
le areas with a slope greater than two to
one, less any area required to be dedi -
cated to a City for par.k • purposes , and
any perimet open space ; further, buildable
acreage shall include any area to be
used for street p ses .
When any individual prod • t is developed
for a• residential area% den ' ties may
vary within the project; howev the total
gross density for the whole proje may not
exceed the limit indicated in the Re ' en-
tial Growth Element.
The residential growth •4imi tc resulting from the policies for
each section of the City, when aggregated to overall City totals ,
result in a total of approximately 40 ,500 dwelling units , with
an estimated population of approximately 9609 . 44619—res"Ift
e following chart illustrates the existing "Trend-Growth" pro-
jecte nd "Limited-Growth" levels of dwelling units , and the =
estimated h ing types and population which would result. As
indicated on the rt, the "Limited-Growth " level based on the —
policies for each sects of the City, will result in a greater
proportion of single-family duplex units than the "Trend-
Growth" projection (which would re t in nearly half of the
44
total number of units in multi -family de opments) . This is
consistent with the adopted "Land Use Policy" reserving the _
"predominant one •and two-family residential . characte con-
tained in the General Plan Policy Report. —

_ It is questionable whether any residential develop-
`'�► j: will occur on the unincorporated Beeco property

tained in, this element woul be adjusted

rket studies performed by the• City ' s Economic Consultant indicate
that a onversion on the industrially zoned and developed land
in this area residential could be supported. The Residential
Growth Element pro es that conversion of industrial land to
residential development rohibited in order to : 1 ) limit. the
population in the area , and 2) event the poor mixture of land _
uses , and probable deterioration, whi would result from a gradual
conversion . It is apparent that this area suitable for contin-
ued industrial use in terms of the - location , bein d ' cent to a
larger industrial area in Costa Mesa, and the potential rove-
ments in access to the area.

Since 1 of Statistical Area A3 is unincorporated , no City action

Element proposes that resident development at a maximum density -
of fifteen dwelling units per builda acre be permitted in the

Lane (private) and westerly of Placentia Avenue, a the' area east
