with the Ralph M. Brown Act and Chapter 20.62 (Public Hearings) of the NBMC.
Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the City Council
at this hearing.
NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach ordains as
follows:
Section 1: The City Council has considered the recommendation of the
Planning Commission and determined that modifications to the Project made by the City
Council, if any, are not major changes that require referral back to the Planning
Commission for consideration and recommendation.
Section 2: The Newport Place Planned Community Development Plan (PC -
11) shall be revised as provided in Exhibits "A" and "B", which are attached hereto and
incorporated herein for reference, with all other provisions of the existing Planned
Community District Regulations and maps remaining unchanged and in full force and
effect.
Section 3: An amendment to the Newport Place Planned Community (PC -11)
is a legislative act. Neither Chapters 20.66 (Amendment) and 20.56 (Planned
Community Development District Procedures) of Title 20 (Planning and Zoning) of the
NBMC, the Charter of the City of Newport Beach, nor Article 2 (Adoption of Regulations)
of Chapter 4 (Zoning Regulations) of Division 1 (Planning and Zoning) of Title 7
(Planning and Land Use) of the California Government Code set forth any required
findings for either approval or denial of amendment to the Newport Place Planned
Community (PC -11). Nevertheless, amending the Newport Place Planned Community
(PC -11) to change the land use designation from "Restaurant Site 1" to "General
Commercial Site 8" is consistent with the purpose of Planned Community Districts as
specified in Section 20.56.010 of the NBMC for the reasons set forth below.
Ordinance No. 2021-24
Page 3 of 5
Facts in Support of Findings:
1. The change in land use designation from "Restaurant Site 1" to "General
Commercial Site 8" provides flexibility for future commercial uses. Currently, only
restaurant uses are permitted on "Restaurant Site 1". The proposed amendment
to "General Commercial Site 8" allows a variety of commercial uses, including
retail stores, athletic clubs, professional and medical offices, and other uses.
Additionally, restaurants are a permitted use in "General Commercial Site 8"
(Refer to Part II, Section II, Group II, Letter F of Exhibit A for General Commercial
Uses).
2. Land Use Policy 2.4, Economic Development of the General Plan Land Use
Policy, encourages the accommodation of uses that maintain or enhance
Newport Beach's fiscal health, accounting for market demands while maintaining
and improving the quality of life for residents. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic,
the market demands for restaurants have been altered for the foreseeable future.
While amending the land use designation to "General Commercial Site 8"
maintains restaurants as an allowed use, it expands the range of uses to a
variety of commercial uses and increases the opportunity for economic
development in the future.
3. Land Use Policy 3.2, Growth and Change of the General Plan Land Use Policy
encourages the enhancement of existing neighborhoods, districts, and corridors,
allowing for re -use and infill with uses that are complimentary in type, form, scale,
and character. The expanded range of uses creates flexibility for the Property to
complement the surrounding area, which has multiple housing projects. The
change in land use designation to general commercial will allow for a broader
array of uses to serve the area.
4. The Project site includes an existing off-street parking lot with sixty-two (62)
parking spaces. The existing restaurant requires fifty-four (54) parking spaces,
resulting in a surplus of eight (8) spaces. Per the Newport Place Planned
Community (PC -11) standards, the proposed medical office use requires thirty-
six (36) parking spaces, resulting in a surplus of twenty-six (26) parking spaces.
Other potential commercial uses which are permitted under "General Commercial
Site 8" are projected to require less parking than the proposed medical office.
Ordinance No. 2021-24
Page 4 of 5
5. The change in use from restaurant to medical office results in a reduction in
traffic. Similarly, other commercial uses which are permitted under "General
Commercial Site 8" result in lower traffic generation than the existing restaurant
use.
Section 4: The recitals provided in this ordinance are true and correct and are
incorporated into the substantive portion of this ordinance.
Section 5: If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this
ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not
affect the validity or constitutionality of the remaining portions of this ordinance. The
City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this ordinance and each section,
subsection, sentence, clause or phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or
more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared invalid or
unconstitutional.
Section 6: The City Council finds the introduction and adoption of this
ordinance is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental
Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines, California
Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, because it has no potential to have
a significant effect on the environment.
Section 7: The Mayor shall sign and the City Clerk shall attest to the passage
of this ordinance. The City Clerk shall cause the ordinance, or a summary thereof, to be
published pursuant to City Charter Section 414.

GENERAL NOTES
The Newport Project, a planned community development is a project of Emkay
Development Company, Inc., a subsidiary of Morrison-Knudsen Company, Inc. The area
is most appropriate for commercial and light industrial use because of its central location,
ideal topography, availability to four freeways, accessibility to two railroads and its relation
to the Orange County Airport. Attached drawings indicate land use, grading and roads,
storm drains, water and sewer, topography and traffic analysis. This area was also identified
in the 2006 General Plan as a key area for future housing opportunities. [38]
2. Water within the Planned Community area will be furnished by the City of Newport Beach.
Sewerage Disposal facilities within the Planned Community area are by the City of Newport
Beach.
4. Prior to or coincidental with the filing of any tentative map or use permit, the developer shall
submit a master plan of drainage to the Director of Public Works.
The height of all buildings and structures shall comply with FAA criteria.

related thereto.

566,423 square feet. Any further development subsequent to October 1, 1978, in excess of
30% of the additional allowable development, being 169,927 sq. ft. shall be approved only

cover, and the treatment of all setback and open areas.
(b) The increased building height would result in a more desirable architectural
treatment of the building and a stronger and more appealing visual character
of the area than is required by the basic height limit.
(c) The increased building height would not result in undesirable or abrupt scale
relationships being created between the structure and existing developments
or public spaces. Particular attention shall be given to the total bulk of the
structure including both horizontal and vertical dimensions.
(d) The structure shall have no more floor area than could have been achieved
without the use permit. [22]
