STATUS REPORT ON THE RESUBDIVISION OF
SUBJECT: THE CITY -OWNED PROPERTY ON BAY AVENUE
Background
P
r.,3
The City of Newport Beach owns two surplus parcels of land, each measuring
approximately 50' x 25', which are located on Bay Avenue between 18th and
19th. The City has been leasing portions of these properties to Mrs. Josephine
Fulton since May 1, 1953, and to Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Straub since Septem-
ber 23, 1964.
The City Council at their meeting of July 11, 1977, directed staff to initiate
the resubdivision of the two parcels. This action was intended to provide
for the sale of an encroaching portion of a residence belonging to the
Straubs; the removal of the encroachment on the property leased by the Fultons
and the relocation onto the resubdivided parcels of a structure of historical
significance for use as a community meeting facility.
The purpose of this staff report is to provide information relating to the
status of the project, pursuant to the completion of a survey of the subject
parcels.
Survey Results
On June 17, 1977, a survey of the property was conducted to determine the
nature and extent of existing encroachments. Two primary encroachments
presently exist on the parcels, as shown in Exhibit 1 (attached). On the
property leased by Mrs. Fulton there stands a one car garage measuring approxi-
mately 20.2' x 12.2'. On the property leased by the Straubs there exists an
encroaching portion of a residential dwelling unit which straddles the property
line. This encroachment extends approximately 26' onto the City -owned parcel.
Proposed Meeting Facility
The structure which was proposed for relocation to the Bay Avenue site for
use as a meeting facility is presently located at 15th and Bay, in the park-
ing lot of the property which is being leased from the City by the American
Legion. The building, which is approximately 24' x 34', is currently being
maintained as a storage facility for sailing and other equipment utilized by
the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department. It once served as a headquarters
for numerous scouting groups in the area, and contains a central meeting room
with a fireplace, and two restrooms. An examination of the structure by the
City's Building Division, indicates that it is safe and sound and could be
relocated.

Analysis
The information obtained as a result of the survey, has been analyzed in
relation to the proposed community meeting facility relocation, and the
results of this analysis are presented in Exhibit 2 (attached). It can be
seen from this Exhibit that even with the removal of the garage from the one
parcel, the extent of the encroachment by the residence onto the other City- '
owned parcel is such that the resubdivided property could not physically
accommodate both structures.
Summary of Alternatives
In response to the findings of the survey and analysis which are dealt with
in this report, the following primary alternatives are available to the
City with regard to the disposition of the subject Bay Avenue property:
1. Cancel the existing leases and require the lessees to
remove all encroachments. Continue with the proposed
resubdivision and, if desired, community meeting
facility relocation.
2. Cancel the existing leases and require the removal of
the encroaching garage and approximately 132' of the
encroaching dwelling unit. Institute a modification
procedure to adjust the rear yard setback from 10' to
5', and provide for the sale of the remaining encroach-
ment to Mrs. Straub. (Exhibit 3 attached)
3. Take appropriate action to initiate the sale of the
subject properties.
4. Maintain existing lease situation. z r
