The following documentation is required to complete the application: 1. Lot Line Adjustment and Tentative Tract Map. The Planning Permit Application was submitted for a lot line adjustment and a tentative tract map; however, most of the necessary information and requirements did not accompany the application. Please see the attachments, which detail what the requirements for each. 2. Property Owner’s Signature. Please be advised, the property owner’s signature on an application for a lot line adjustment and/or tentative tract map shall be notarized. 3. Proof of Ownership. A Preliminary Title Report not more than six months old shall be submitted for all properties involved in this application. 4. Signatory Information. Please provide documentation that demonstrates Steven Ganalon has the authority to sign on behalf of the property ownership. 5. Project Description and Justification. The narrative accompanying the project should be expanded, as the request entails General Plan and Zoning Code amendments. The existing designated land use by the General Plan and Zoning Code and the requested designation should be described and discussed, noting why it is appropriate and the best use for the project site. December 7, 2017 F:\Users\PLN\Shared\PA's\PAs - 2017\PA2017-228\PA2017-228 Notice of Incomplete Filing_12042017.docx Page 2 It should also detail each application request (e.g., Major Site Development Review, etc.) and provide information as to why each is justified. Consider addressing the required findings in Municipal Code Section 19.12.070 (Required Findings for Action on Tentative Maps), 19.76.020(I) (Required Findings – Procedures for Lot Line Adjustments), 20.52.080(F) (Findings and Decision – Site Development Reviews). 6. Environmental Review. Please submit a completed environmental information form. A blank form is attached to this letter. A phase one environmental study should also be considered prior the next submittal. As this project is a General Plan amendment, it is likely it will require an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). 7. Project Plans. Please address the following: a. Open Space. Note the required and provided open space areas. The cover sheet only discusses the common open space requirement of 75 square feet per unit. Private open space is also required and shall be 5 percent of the gross floor area for each unit with a minimum dimension of 6 feet. b. Floor Area Limit. Please be advised, the allowable floor area limit is 1.75 times the buildable area of the lot, not the overall lot area (i.e., omit the required setback areas and then multiply by 1.75). c. Floor Area Calculations. There exist discrepancies in the plans between the saleable areas calculated, as well as the average unit size, etc. Please verify all numbers for accuracy. Gross floor area shall be calculated in accordance with the NBMC Chapter 20.70 (Definitions) definition of “Floor area, gross.” d. Height Limit. The maximum height limit is 28 feet to a flat roof or flat element and 33 feet to the ridge of a sloped roof. The cover sheet incorrectly notes the sloped roof height limit as 32 feet. e. Grade Establishment. Please provide a clear calculation for the slope of the project site as well as the establishment of grade in accordance with NBMC Section 20.30.050 (Grade Establishment). f. Parking. Please clarify the proposed parking configuration. Where is the designated guest parking? The cover sheet should also be altered to clarify that there are actually 28 required parking spaces in tandem, not 14 standard and 14 in tandem. Also, please clarify why wheel stops are shown in the middle of the “Typical Parking Stall Tandem” diagram. g. Roof Plan (A.104). Please note the pitch and elevation of each roof area. Also label the distance of the projection into the required setback areas. Please note, roof overhangs and eaves are only permitted to encroach up to 2 feet, 6 inches into a required setback area. The pool room appears to exceed this allowance and should be revised to comply. h. Exterior Elevations (A2.01). Please clearly label the elevation to the highest roof structure.

Lot Merger/Lot Line Adjustment Information Community Development Department - Planning Division 100 Civic Center Drive / P.O. Box 1768 / Newport Beach, CA 92658-8915 949-644-3204 www.newportbeachca.gov General Information Lot Merger A Lot Merger for purpose of Chapter 19.68 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code is a boundary adjustment to join four or fewer adjoining parcels under one fee ownership where no more than three parcels are eliminated. If a merger involves the elimination of more than three parcels, tentative and final parcel maps shall be required. When a building site consists of one or more lots and/or portions of more than one lot, a Lot Merger is required to combine the lots into a single building site when new construction is proposed or alterations to an existing structure are proposed to cross a lot line. An application for a Lot Merger may be accepted when it can be determined that the proposal complies with the following specifications: 1. Approval of the merger will not, under the circumstances of this particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, comfort and general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City, and further that the proposed lot merger is consistent with the legislative intent of this title; and 2. The lots to be merged are under common fee ownership at the time of the merger; and 3. The lots as merged will be consistent or will be more closely compatible with the applicable zoning regulations and will be consistent with other regulations relating to the subject property including, but not limited to, the General Plan and any applicable Coastal Plan or Specific Plan; and 4. Neither the lots as merged nor adjoining parcels will be deprived of legal access as a result of the merger; and 5. The lots as merged will be consistent with the pattern of development nearby and will not result in a lot width, depth, or orientation, or development site that is incompatible with nearby lots. In making this finding, the review authority may consider the following: a. Whether development of the merged lots could significantly deviate from the pattern of development of adjacent and/or adjoining lots in a manner that would result in an unreasonable detriment to the use and enjoyment of other properties. b. Whether the merged lots would be consistent with the character or general orientation of adjacent and/or adjoining lots. c. Whether the merged lots would be conforming or in greater conformity with the minimum lot width and area standards for the zoning district. Lot Line Adjustment A Lot Line Adjustment for purpose of Chapter 19.76 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code is a minor boundary adjustment involving four or fewer adjacent lots or parcels where the land taken from one parcel is added to an adjacent parcel with the original number of parcels remaining unchanged after the adjustment. An application for a Lot Line Adjustment may be accepted when it can be determined that the proposal complies with the following specifications: 1. Approval of the Lot Line Adjustment will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City, and further that the proposed lot line adjustment is consistent with the legislative intent of this title. Lot Merger/Lot Line Adjustment Information – 2 of 3 F:\Users\CDD\Shared\Admin\Planning_Division\Applications\LA&LM\Info_LA_LM.docx Updated 3/04/17 2. The number of parcels resulting from the Lot Line Adjustment remains the same as before the Lot Line Adjustment. 3. The Lot Line Adjustment is consistent with applicable zoning regulations except that nothing herein shall prohibit the approval of a Lot Line Adjustment so long as none of the resultant parcels is more nonconforming as to lot width, depth and area than the parcels that existed prior to the lot line adjustment. 4. Neither the lots as adjusted nor adjoining parcels will be deprived of legal access as a result of the lot line adjustment. 5. That the final configuration of the parcels involved will not result in the loss of direct vehicular access from an adjacent alley for any of the parcels that are included in the Lot Line Adjustment. 6. That the final configuration of a reoriented lot does not result in any reduction of the street side setbacks as currently exist adjacent to a front yard of any adjacent key, unless such reduction is accomplished through a zone change to establish appropriate street side setbacks for the reoriented lot. The Planning Commission and City Council, in approving the zone change application, shall determine that the street side setbacks are appropriate and are consistent and compatible with the surrounding pattern of development and existing adjacent setbacks. Application Requirements To apply please provide the following: 1. A completed Planning Permit Application for a Lot Merger or Lot Line Adjustment Application. 2. One (1) copy of a Preliminary Title Report not more than 6 months old from the date the application will be submitted that identifies the legal description of property. 3. Grant/Quitclaim Deeds After approval of the Lot Line Adjustment/Lot Merger by the Zoning Administrator, the applicant shall have Grant/Quitclaim Deed(s) prepared before the recordation of the Lot Line Adjustment/Lot Merger.

This review provides the basis for determining whether the project may have a significant effect on the environment, as required by state law. After this information has been evaluated by the Planning Department, a determination will be made regarding the appropriate environmental documentation for your project. If no significant environmental effects are anticipated, or if impacts can be mitigated or avoided by a change or specific requirement in the project's design or operation, a Negative Declaration will be prepared. If potential significant environmental effects are identified, an Environmental Impact Report must be prepared which focuses on the areas of concern identified by the Initial Study. After preliminary review of your application and the Environmental Information Form, you may be notified that additional information or technical studies will be required (e.g., traffic study, geotechnical survey, etc.) before an environmental determination can be made. Processing Schedule The time required to process the environmental analysis for your project will depend on the nature and complexity of the proposal and the location of the project. If possible, the Planning Department will set a target date for public hearing at the time your application is determined to be complete. If special studies are required (e.g., traffic study, biological assessment), the hearing date cannot be set until these studies are completed. If a Negative Declaration is prepared, a 30-day public review period is normally required prior to the public hearing. Staff will notify you regarding the hearing schedule for your project as soon as possible. Filing Fee A $750 deposit is due at the time the form is submitted. Hourly charges will be accumulated for processing activities. The applicant shall pay all such costs prior to final action on the related project or as soon thereafter as such costs may be finally determined. If a Special Study, Negative Declaration or an Environmental Impact Report is required, the City will retain a consultant with the cost to be fully funded by the applicant. In addition, the applicant may be required to pay a California Department of Fish and Game (DFG) review fee. Planning Department staff will advise you regarding the applicability of DFG fees after the environmental review is completed.
