TITLE: Ordinance No. 2022-22: Approving a Zoning Code Amendment for
the Lido House Hotel Located at 3300 Newport Boulevard and
475 32nd Street (PA2020-068)
/_1 13I Z7_T91 6
For the City Council's consideration is the adoption of an ordinance amending Title 20
(Planning and Zoning) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC). The amendment
would increase the development limit for Anomaly Number 85 in the General Plan Land
Use Element to 118,573 gross square feet. The additional floor area is due to a proposed
expansion at the Lido House Hotel, located at 3300 Newport Boulevard. The attached
ordinance amends the City's zoning code to be consistent with the proposed project. The
ordinance was introduced and considered at the October 25, 2022 City Council meeting.

a) Determine this amendment is consistent with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15062 of the CEQA Guidelines, the changes
authorized under the project are not substantial, as they do not involve new significant
effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant
effects, and therefore, a subsequent Environmental Impact Report (EIR) does not
need to be prepared. The City prepared and certified a final EIR for the Lido House
Hotel (SCH#2013111022). State CEQA Guidelines allow for the updating and use of
a previously certified EIR for projects that have changed or are different from the
previous project. In cases where changes or additions occur with no new significant
environmental impacts, an addendum to the previously certified EIR may be prepared
pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. The City prepared and approved
Addendum No. 2 to the Lido House Hotel's final EIR for the project, which concludes
there are no new environmental impacts and no impacts of greater severity that would
result from approval and implementation of the project; and
b) Conduct second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 2022-22, An Ordinance of the City
Council of the City of Newport Beach, California, Approving a Zoning Code
Amendment for the Lido House Hotel Located at 3300 Newport Boulevard and
475 32nd Street (PA2020-068).

Ordinance No. 2022-22: Approving a Zoning Code Amendment for the
Lido House Hotel Located at 3300 Newport Boulevard and 475 32nd Street
November 15, 2022

DISCUSSION:
R.D. Olson Development (Applicant) proposes to add 15,103 square feet to the previously
approved 130-room Lido House Hotel. The additional floor area would allow the
construction of five new rentable cottages, increased storage space, enlarged
pre-function/breakout meeting rooms, a new greenhouse seating room, expansion of
three existing hotel rooms, and an enclosed area on the rooftop terrace. Also included in
the project is the demolition of the former Fire Station No. 2 building to create additional
public and private parking spaces, and the installation of fencing along portions of the
32nd Street and Newport Boulevard frontages.
On October 25, 2022, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing and
approved the second amendment to the ground lease. At the hearing, several resolutions
were adopted approving the addendum to the Environmental Impact Report and the
General Plan amendment; authorizing the submittal of an amendment to the City's Local
Coastal Program to the California Coastal Commission; and approving a major site
development review. Finally, Ordinance No. 2022-22 was introduced approving a zoning
code amendment to be consistent with the proposed project and was passed to a second
reading and adoption. If Ordinance No. 2022-22 is adopted, it would become effective
30 calendar days after adoption.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this item will result in an increase of $50,000 in annual base rent revenue
from the hotel, and an estimated $65,000 per year of additional (room and non -room)
percentage rent revenues related to the new cottages. An estimated $165,000 in
additional transient occupancy tax (TOT) per year is also expected. Additional percentage
rent, parking meter, and TOT revenues will be included in future fiscal years' budgets,
upon completion of the construction. Current and future years' rent revenues will continue
to be posted to the General Fund account in the Community Development Department —
01050505-551130, and TOT revenues will continue to be posted to the General Fund
account for Hotel Tax revenue — 01003-413010.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Pursuant to Section 15062 of the CEQA Guidelines, the changes authorized under the
project are not substantial, as they do not involve new significant effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, and therefore, a
subsequent EIR does not need to be prepared. The City prepared and certified a final
EIR for the Lido House Hotel (SCH#2013111022). State CEQA Guidelines allow for the
updating and use of a previously certified EIR for projects that have changed or are
different from the previous project. In cases where changes or additions occur with no
new significant environmental impacts, an addendum to the previously certified EIR may
be prepared pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. The City prepared and
approved Addendum No. 2 to the Lido House Hotel's final EIR for the project, which
concludes there are no new environmental impacts and no impacts of greater severity
that would result from approval and implementation of the project.

Ordinance No. 2022-
Page 3 of 5
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 City Council finds amendments to Title 20 (Planning and Zoning)
of the NBMC are legislative acts. Neither Title 20 nor State Planning Law set for any
required findings for either approval or denial of such amendments. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Zoning Code Amendment is consistent with the corresponding General
Plan Amendment and Coastal Land Use Plan Amendment.
a. The Project allows enlarged hallways, an enclosed conference room breakout
space, an enclosed "greenhouse" breakout and seating area, larger storage
spaces, three slightly larger hotel rooms, and five additional hotel rooms. These
changes constitute a 14.6-percent increase in floor area of the hotel and related
amenities. Collectively, these changes should enhance the functionality of the
hotel and the experience of guests and visitors.
b. The Project includes the removal of the former Fire Station No. 2 building and
the construction of surface parking in its place, including 14 new public parking
spaces accessed from Via Oporto. These parking spaces will enhance access
by increasing the public parking pool in a commercial area frequented by
residents and visitors alike.
c. A parking demand analysis was prepared by Linscott, Law & Greenspan on
June 8, 2022, for the Project and has been reviewed and accepted by the City
Traffic Engineer. The Project would result in a negligible increase in predicted
traffic and parking demands. The predicted traffic to and from the proposed
hotel will remain less than what the former City Hall site generated. Additionally,
the Project provides additional parking spaces to serve the public, thus,
reducing overall demand for parking in the surrounding area.
d. The increased floor area will not significantly reduce publicly visible open
space, nor will it decrease the parking provided. The increased hotel floor area
would be located on the first, second, third and fourth levels, but would not
increase the height of the existing hotel. The Project would remain consistent
5-6
Ordinance No. 2022-
Page 4 of 5
with remaining and unchanged applicable standards of the CV-LV Zoning
District and Coastal Land Use Policy 4.4.2-1, which limit the height of
development.
Section 3: The City Council hereby approves the Zoning Code Amendment
reviewed under PA2020-068, as depicted in Exhibit "B," which is attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference.
Section 4: The City Council authorizes City staff to correct any typographical or
scrivener's errors in compiling the final documentation, without the need for further review
or approval by the City Council.
Section 5: The recitals provided in this ordinance are true and correct and are
incorporated into the substantive portion of this ordinance.
Section 6: 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 7: Pursuant to Section 15062 of the California Environmental Quality
Act ("CEQA") Guidelines, the changes authorized under the Project are not substantial,
as they do not involve new significant effects or a substantial increase in the severity of
previously identified significant effects, and therefore, a subsequent Environmental
Impact Report ("EIR") does not need to be prepared. The City prepared and certified a
final EIR for the Lido House Hotel (SCH#2013111022). State CEQA Guidelines allow for
the updating and use of a previously certified EIR for projects that have changed or are
different from the previous project. In cases where changes or additions occur with no
new significant environmental impacts, an addendum to the previously certified EIR may
be prepared pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. The City prepared Addendum
No. 2 to the Lido House Hotel's final EIR for the Project, which concludes there are no
new environmental impacts and no impacts of greater severity that would result from
approval and implementation of the Project.
