A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH DENYING PARCEL MAP NO. 2008-
012 AND ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO.2008 -001 FOR
DEVELOPMENT OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT 627 WEST BAY
AVENUE (PA 2008 -080)
WHEREAS, an application was filed by Phillip Budovec, Knitter and Associates, on
behalf of Fritz Duda, Housing Resources, LLC with respect to property located at 627 West Bay
Avenue, and legally described as Lots 14 and 15, Block 4, East Newport Tract, requesting
approval of a Parcel Map to re- subdivide the existing lots so that each proposed lot would have
frontage on West Bay Avenue, and an amendment to Districting Map No. 10 to establish a
reduced front yard setback for each proposed lot.
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on August 7, 2008 in the City Hall Council
Chambers, 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California. A notice of time, place and
purpose of the meeting was given in accordance with the Municipal Code. Evidence, both
written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Planning Commission at this
meeting; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds as follows:
1. The proposed Parcel Map would result in development that is inconsistent with the
stated goals and policies of the General Plan related to alley access and curb cuts.
The re- subdivision design and development of proposed Parcel 1 would require that
vehicular access be provided from either 7th Street or West Bay Avenue. At least one
new curb cut would be required. This would result in the loss of at least one or more
on- street parking spaces.
2. The proposed Parcel Map re- subdivision design would result in development that is
inconsistent with the stated goals and policies of the Coastal Land Use Program
related to alley access and curb cuts within the Coastal Zone. Development of
proposed Parcel 1 would require at least one new curb cut. This would result in the
loss of at least one or more on- street parking spaces, decreasing the available on-
street parking spaces within the Coastal Zone.
3. The proposed re- subdivision design would be detrimental to the residents of the
subject property and surrounding properties since development of proposed Parcel 1
would require the removal of two existing City street trees. Development of proposed
Parcel 2 would result in development which could create difficulty maneuvering
through the existing 10- foot -wide alley at the rear of the subject block.
