Council Meeting
The next City Council meeting is
Tuesday, April 25. Items of interest
are highlighted below. The entire
agenda and reports can be
viewed here.
A study session will begin at 4 p.m.:
Potential development of a
pilot program to allow homeowners'
associations with 50 or more
members to install private security cameras within public rights -of -way. The study
session will include a staff presentation and discussion.
The regular meeting will begin at 6 p.m. Agenda items include:
Consideration of an updated lease agreement with the Boys and Girls Clubs of
Central Orange Coast for the use of recreation facilities at Eastbluff Park, 2555
Vista del Oro. The non-profit organization is requesting a new, 30-year lease
agreement to allow for continued use of recreation facilities that primarily serve
students from Eastbluff Elementary School and Corona del Mar Middle School.
The Council will consider lifting the City's drought -related water restrictions following
California's record -setting rainfall this winter. Newport Beach enacted water use
restrictions in June 2022 and November 2022 to comply with state mandates after a
prolonged drought. Since then, California and Orange County have received record
amounts of rainfall, which refilled major water reservoirs and raised groundwater
levels. The City Council will consider a repeal of Resolution No. 2022-88, ending the
Level Two water shortage.
Conveyance and lease agreements that will allow the City to maintain and operate
new public docks at Balboa Marina, near 201 E. Coast Highway. A conveyance
agreement would allow The Irvine Company to transfer the public docks to the City,
as part of a 2015 agreement to expand Balboa Marina. A proposed 45-year lease
agreement with the County of Orange would approve the use of public tidelands
property for a portion of the 12-slip, public dock area.
A public hearing on a 2023-2024 spending plan for nearly $400,000 in Community
Development Block Grants. The City receives federal funds each year to benefit
those with low and moderate incomes, aid in the prevention of neighborhood
deterioration, and meet other urgent community development needs due to natural
disasters or other emergencies.
The Council will consider a zoning amendment that would allow recreational
facilities to be developed on a portion of the parking lot at the Orange County
Transportation Authority (OCTA) transit facility at Avocado Avenue and San Joaquin
Hills Road. The amendment would apply to Area 1 of the Newport Village Planned
Community development plan, which includes the 2.43-acre Transit Center
property. The City is considering a license agreement with OCTA to use part of the
Transit Center parking lot to construct pickleball courts.
