William Laycock, Current Planning Administrator,
recommended that Condition No. 9 be amended to include
the following: "In the event that the off -site parking
lot is lost to the restaurant use, the applicant shall
notify the Planning Director in writing, and close the
nighttime operation of the restaurant facility until an
amended off -site parking agreement is approved by the
City". Mr. Laycock explained that the purpose of the
amended condition gives the City a guarantee that if
the applicant is not able to maintain the informal
parking agreement after one year, he will have to close
the restaurant facility at night or get additional
parking at another location.
staff recommended that Condition No. it be amended to
state that "the applicant shall obtain all required
building permits and make all required corrections to
the existing structure in order to comply with
applicable requirements of the Uniform Building Code".
Mr. Laycock explained that the purpose of the modified
condition is that the applicant may not have to revise
the entire dining room floor as previously required,
and that there may be other ways to meet the Uniform
Building Code, such as a ramp on the outside of the
building.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Kurlander regarding the take-out restaurant not having
a trash compactor, staff replied that the subject
restaurant is not a typical take-out restaurant where
there would be a lot of paper items thrown on the
ground, and that the existing kitchem does not include
a trash compactor.
The public hearing was opened in connection with this
item, and Mr. Jerry King, appeared on behalf of the
applicant. Mr. King stated that the applicant concurs
with the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A".
Commissioner Winburn asked why Condition No. 6
requiring a washout area for the restaurant trash
containers and Condition No. 7 requiring grease
interceptors have been included in the subject use

3041 dated July 22, 1983? Mr. Laycock replied that the
Building Department is now requiring the washout area
and grease interceptors which were not required for the
previous take-out restaurant on the subject site.
In response to Commissioner Kurlander's question
regarding the trash compactor, Mr. King replied that
this is a different type of take-out restaurant
operation, and that there is an existing trash
receptacle immediately outside of the rear door. Mr.
King said that presently the trash is put into plastic
bags and placed inside trash containers. He cited that
one of the doors of the trash enclosure is missing and
will be replaced.
Commissioner Eichenhofer asked if the twelve parking
spaces could be marked in the Great American First
savings Bank parking lot so that the parking spaces
will not be used by the Tale of the Whale patrons or
the Balboa Pavilion. Mr. King replied that the subject
bank has requested that the parking spaces not be
specifically marked with a restaurant designation.
Mr. Hewicker asked how a customer going to the take-out
restaurant knows that there would be available parking
in the bank parking lot. Mr. King replied that the
applicant has not addressed that issue at this time,
but the applicant has suggested that signs could be
posted on the window of the subject restaurant facility
or on the Class of 147 Restaurant building wall on Palm
Street. Mr. King stated that the applicant would be
willing to cooperate with any signage directions that
staff may recommend.
The public hearing was closed at this time.
Motion was made to approve Use Permit No. 3188 subject

Application
This application includes a request to establish a nighttime restau-
rant with on -sale beer and wine and a take-out restaurant establish-
ment on property located in the C-1 District, where a take-out restau-
rant (Papagayo's) previously existed. The proposal also includes a
request to approve an informal off -site parking agreement for the
additional required nighttime parking spaces. In accordance with
Chapter 20.72 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, restaurants and
take-out restaurants are permitted uses in the C-1 District subject to
the approval of a use permit in each case. Use permit procedures are
set forth in Chapter 20.80 of the Municipal Code.
Environmental Significance
This project has been reviewed, and it has been determined that it is
categorically exempt under Class 1 (Existing Facilities) from the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act.
TO: PS,^ wing Commission -2. s '
Conformance with the General Plan and the Adopted Local Coastal
Program, Land Use Plan
The Land Use Element of the General Plan and the Adopted Local Coastal
Program, Land Use Plan, designates the site for "Retail and Service
Commercial" uses. The existing and proposed restaurant facilities
fall within the uses permitted.
Subject Property and Surrounding Land Uses
The subject property is presently developed with a 3,117± sq.ft.
building which contains the "Class of 47" Cocktail Lounge with acces-
sory bathrooms and the Balboa Thai Cafe (previously Papagayo's). As
will be discussed in the background section, the restaurant which
previously operated as Papagayo's was limited to take-out food with
incidental seating.
To the northeast, across East Bay Avenue is the future site of the new
Edgewater Place development. Said property is currently under devel-
opment and is being used for temporary parking. To the southeast,
across Palm Street is the parking lot for Laguna Federal Savings; to
the southwest, across a 10 foot wide alley is a variety of retail
commercial uses which front on East Balboa Boulevard and Palm Street;
and to the northwest is a two-story residential four-plex.
Background
The restaurant and bar presently known as the "Class of 47" was
established on the subject property in April 1964, in conjunction with
the Planning Commission's approval of Use Permit No. 1027. Prior to
that, the facility was operated exclusively as a restaurant without
alcoholic beverages. In August, 1965, the Planning Commission denied
Use Permit No. 1150 which was a request to add dancing and live
entertainment to the restaurant use.
According to the local office of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), the
"Class of 47" restaurant limited their alcoholic beverage to beer and
wine until 1969, at which time the facility was approved by A.B.C. to
serve cocktails. in 1978, the service of food was discontinued and
the facility legally operated as a cocktail lounge until July of 1983.
At its meeting of July 21, 1983, the Planning Commission approved the
change in the operational characteristics of the "Class of 47" so as
to allow said facility to operate without a food service operation.
Said approval was subject to the findings and conditions set forth in
the attached excerpts of the -Planning Commission minutes dated July
21, 1983.
At its meeting of August 4, 1983, the Planning Commission approved Use
Permit No. 3041 which permitted the establishment of the Papagayo's
take-out restaurant with incidental seating and on -sale beer and wine.
Due to the failure of the previous applicant to comply with specific
conditions of approval, the Planning Commission considered the revoca-
tion of Use Permit No. 3041 at its meeting of February 9, 1984.
TO: Pl, _.:ing Commission -3.
Tinasmuch as the previous applicant was able to comply with all condi-
tions of approval, the Planning Commission did not revoke Use Permit
No. 3041. Excerpts of the Planning Commission minutes dated August 4,
1983 and February 9, 1984 are attached for the Planning Commission's
information.
In September of 1985, the Planning Department became aware that the
Papagayo's take-out restaurant had been illegally converted to a full
service restaurant and was operating as the Balboa Thai Restaurant.
On September 12, 1985, the applicant was notified (copy of letter
attached), that an amended use permit was required in order to change
the operational characteristics of the restaurant to include the full
service of food or drink. Inasmuch as the applicant's alterations to
the previous use also included the enclosure of the previously open
patio, located westerly of the restaurant building, the applicant has
been working with the Building Department for the past few weeks in
order to determine the necessary corrections so as to allow the
continued use of the enclosed patio for dining purposes. Said correc-
tions will be discussed later in the staff report.
Analysis
The applicant is proposing to establish a combined take-out restaurant
and full service restaurant. The take-out restaurant will be open
from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. daily, and consist of a single walk-up
counter. Unlike the previous take-out restaurant (Papagayo's), there
will be no incidental seating or on -sale alcoholic beverages in
conjunction with the take-out restaurant operation. The hours of
operation for the full service restaurant will be 5:30 p.m. to 2:00
a.m., daily, and will include on -sale beer and wine. The gross floor
area of the take-out restaurant will be 1,346± sq.ft. and the "net
public area" for the nighttime full service restaurant will be 478±
sq.ft. There will be a maximum of 3 employees in the restaurant
during both the daytime and nighttime operation.
Off -Street Parking Requirement
Seventeen (17) parking spaces would be required for the take-out
restaurant based on the current parking formula of one parking space
for each 50 sq.ft. of gross floor area, plus one parking space for
each employee on the maximum work shift (674± sq.ft. r 50 sq.ft. =
13.48 or 14 + 3 = 17 spaces). The nighttime, full service restaurant
will require 12 off-street parking spaces based on the current parking
requirement of one parking space for each 40 sq.ft. of "net public
area" (478± sq.ft. r 40 sq.ft. = 11.9 or 12 spaces). It should also
be noted that the Code also provides that the restaurant parking
requirement (full service restaurants only) may vary between one
parking space/50 sq.ft. of "net public area" (or 10 spaces) to one
parking space/30 sq.ft. of "net public area" (or 16 spaces), depending
upon the operational characteristics of the restaurant. It is staff's
opinion that one parking space for each 40 sq.ft. (12 spaces) is
adequate for the nighttime full service restaurant operation.
TO: Py .ping Commission -4. ,
Proposed Off -Street Parking
Inasmuch as the take-out restaurant will be limited to a walk-up
counter with no incidental seating, the applicant is requesting a
waiver of all of the parking spaces required for the take-out restau-
rant. Said waiver is requested on the basis that the take-out restau-
rant operation will be servicing people who are working or visiting
the Central Balboa Area and further that the take-out operation will
not be a destination use which will generate a parking demand of its
own.
When the Planning Commission approved Papagayo's take-out restaurant
in conjunction with the original Use Permit No. 3041, the applicant
was required to purchase five in -lieu parking spaces on a annual basis
for the duration of the take-out restaurant use, since the 8 on -site
parking spaces were required for the "Class of 47" Cocktail Lounge.
Said in -lieu parking spaces were specifically associated with the
parking demand of the take-out restaurant inasmuch as the applicant
was also required to provide 20 off -site, nighttime parking spaces on
an informal basis in the Laguna Federal Savings parking lot. It is
staff's opinion that inasmuch as the applicant has not provided any
daytime off-street parking, that he be required to continue the
purchase of in -lieu parking spaces from the City. However, inasmuch
as the take-out restaurant will be limited to a walk-up counter with
no incidental seating, that the applicant be required to purchase only
three in -lieu parking spaces for his employees. This would be consis-
tent with previous actions of the Planning Commission concerning
off-street parking for small take-out restaurants in the central
Balboa area. Although the previous informal parking agreement with
Laguna Federal Savings terminated when the restaurant was sold, the
current applicant has been able to negotiate his own parking arrange-
ment which provides, on an informal basis, 12 nighttime parking spaces
in the Laguna Federal Savings parking lot (see attached site plan).
Staff has no objections to the location of the off -site parking or the
informal basis in which it is provided, as long as suitable replace-
ment parking is provided should the current off -site spaces not be
available to the applicant in the future.
Restaurant Development Standards
Chapter 20.72 of the Municipal Code contains development standards for
restaurants to ensure that any proposed development will be compatible
with adjoining properties and, streets. Said development standards
include specific requirements for building setbacks, parking and
traffic circulation, walls surrounding the restaurant site, landsca-
ping, exterior illumination, signing, underground utilities, and
storage. Section 20.72.130 of the Municipal Code states that the
Planning Commission shall have the right to waive or modify any of the
above mentioned development standards for restaurants or take-out
restaurants if such modification or waiver will achieve substantially
the same results and will in no way be more detrimental to adjacent
properties or improvements than will the strict compliance with
standards. Staff is of the opinion that the on -site development
TO: Planning Commission -5.
standards as they apply to traffic circulation, a portion of the
take-out restaurant parking, walls, parking lot illumination, land-
scaping and utilities should be waived if the Commission approves the
restaurant facility because of the existing physical characteristics
of the site.
Required Building Code Corrections
Inasmuch as the dining area of the subject restaurant utilizes what
was previously a covered patio area, the Building Department has
identified certain corrections which are necessary in order to satisfy
minimum Building Code requirements. The first of these corrections is
that the roof of the dining area must be reconstructed out of fire
retardant material and be fully insulated. The other correction is
that the floor of the dining area must be raised in order to prevent
water from the rear parking area from draining through the restaurant.
The applicant is aware of these corrections and is willing to make the
necessary changes.
Specific Findings and Recommendations
Section 20.80.060 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code provides that in
order to grant any use permit, the Planning Commission shall find that
the establishment, maintenance or operation of the use or building
applied for will not, under the circumstances of the particular case,
be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort and
general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of
such proposed use or be detrimental or injurious to property and
improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City.
Staff recommends approval of Use Permit No. 3188 and suggests that the
Planning Commission take such action subject to the findings and
conditions set forth in the attached Exhibit "A".

Commissioner Person stated that because of his previous
involvement with the Balboa Improvement Association and
having written a letter he would like to step down and
abstain from any discussion regarding these items.
The public hearing opened in conjunction with Use
Permit No. 1027 and Mr. Louis Barrenchea, 2176 Pacific
Street, Orange, applicant, appeared before the
Commission.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Balalis
regarding Section 2 of the lease, that was attached to
his letter, Mr. Barrenchea stated that this letter was
part of the terms of the sub -lease which was given to
Mr. Davidson, the applicant for Papagayo's.
Mr. Barrenchea also stated that Mr. Davidson was told
that the letter would have to apply and be legal with
three government agencies: the State, the Health
Department and the City of Newport Beach. Also, an
escape clause was given to Papagayo's in that if these
licenses could notlbe obtained they simply had to
notify him and cancel their sub -lease.
Mr. Barrenchea stated that in reading the staff report
the Commission may feel that the Class of 47 was
misleading Papagayo!s. Mr. Barrenchea also stated that
the premises was leased to Papagayo's but that the
Class of 47 did not try to run their business. In
1978, when the Class of 47 applied to ABC to eliminate
their food service, they were not aware that the
splitting of the license had anything to do with the
continuation of serving alcohol or continuing to serve
food. Consequently, Class of 47 has applied and paid
for their taxes ever since then.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis, Mr. Barrenchea stated he was aware there was a
use permit for a restaurant and bar and continued to
pay the taxes and changed the ownership at the time of
the City permit.. An attorney was hired who checked out
everything and felt that Mr. Barrenchea could continue
operating the facility as a cocktail lounge. At that
time, no advice was asked of his attorney when they
decided to switch to a straight cocktail lounge, but
the attorney did advise Mr. Barrenchea that he had to
have a receipt of approval to do so.
Planning Director Hewicker stated that when the
restaurant was originally established, a restaurant use
on that site was automatically permitted under the
INDEX

City's Zoning Regulations and the only time a use
permit requirement would have been required waswhen
they had requested to serve alcoholic beverages in
conjunction with that restaurant, or whether they had
asked for live entertainment, within 200 feet of a
residential zone. It wasn't until later that the
City's regulations were changed to require that all
restaurants, regardless of whether they had alcoholic
beverages, live entertainment, dancing, etc., required
a use permit regardless of their operational
characteristics. Inasmuch as they had the use permit
for the alcoholic beverages, Planning Director Hewicker
stated that perhaps it may not have entered their minds
that what they really had was alcoholic beverages in
conjunction with a bona fide restaurant.
Mr. Barrenchea further stated that after 5 years of
operation, since they had made the switch to a cocktail
lounge and no one had come forth advising that they had
to do otherwise, they thought it was perfectly
consistent with what was permitted. Mr. Barrenchea
further indicated that they simply were of the opinion
that they could sell alcohol, food and/or both.
Mr. Hewicker asked Mr. Barrenchea whether he had any
comment on the food service being reestablished in the
Class of 47. In response to Mr. Hewicker's question,
Mr. Barrenchea stated that they feel the establishment
is too small for a restaurant use and he believes that
the staff report states they have approximately 2100
square feet in entire the building of which a nominal
600 - 700 square feet is being leased by Papagayo's,
which was formally the kitchen.
In referring to Exhibit "D", which contains some
Conditions and Findings in the event the Planning
Commission were to approve the current operational
characteristics of the Class of 47 as a cocktail
lounge, Mr. Hewicker asked Mr. Barrenchea if he had any
comments.
In response to Mr. Hewicker's question, Mr. Barrenchea
stated that there was no argument with Condition No. 1
(i.e., all eight on -site parking spaces to be for the
exclusive use of the Class of 47).
Regarding Condition No. 1, Chairman King asked
Mr. Barrenchea how are the parking spaces controlled?

In response to Chairman'King's question, Mr. Barrenchea
stated that it is very difficult to control from .the
standpoint of people coming by and parking there, not
knowing whether they are customers or people parking
and walking away to another site.
Regarding Condition No. 3, the two year period would be
a detriment to the Class of 47 because in the event
they elected to sell the premises and someone wanted to
make changes, it would be a question in the permit. In
other words, it would reduce the value of the property
if the Class of 47 were wanting to sell. Mr. Barrenchea
further stated that in regards to the trash containers,
required in Condition No. 5, as far as the City is
concerned, the people utilizing the entire area use the
trash containers.
Mike Stanley of 1840 Park Newport, #205, and Bruce
Davidson of 1000 E. Balboa Boulevard, Balboa,
representing Papagayo's, appeared before the Commission
in conjunction with Ise Permit No. 3041.
Mike Stanley stated that as far as regulations of the
patio were concerned he felt that they had been
misunderstood. In order to'try to clarify it he made
an appointment with Sgt. Doug Thomas of the Police
Department, for 2:00 in the afternoon on Thursday, July
7, 1983, to discuss the conditions of the patio. At
the time of arranging this appointment, Sgt. Thomas
told Mr. Stanley that he would have to come out since
he knew nothing of the patio. At 1:50 p.m. on the same
day another Police Officer telephoned Mr. Stanley to
cancel the meeting and to say that there was no need of
him coming out since he was familiar with the patio.
Mr. Stanley said, at that time, that he would at least
like the officer to come out so that he could discuss
his proposal to coincide with.what would make the patio
viable. There was some concern on the part of the
Police Officer that by coming out and discussing the
patio with Mr.. Stanley that it would prejudice his
decision in the matter.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis, Mr. Davidson stated that he believes the
proposed off -site parking lot could easily be made into
validation parking.
In response to a question posed by Chairman King,
Mr. Davidson stated that Laguna Federal Savings and
Loan does not wish to get involved with the parking

situation inasmuch as they do not operate the parking
lot. The lot is operated by a parking lot attendant
that covers all of the parking lots for Laguna Federal
Savings and Loan. Mr. Davidson further stated that he
would see if it is possible to obtain some type of a
valid contractual agreement.
Commissioner Balalis asked if the Commission would
consider a two week continuance which would allow
Mr. Davidson to return with a document, in writing, to
the City as to how he plans on dealing with the parking
problem.
Commissioner Kurlander asked that Mr. Davidson give the
Commission a parking plan that provides parking for the
lunch hour as well as with the evening hours.
Bob Gabriele, Assistant City Attorney, stated that with
respect to the parking issue, he had a meeting with
Mr. Stanley over a week ago, in which a written parking
agreement was 6iscus6ed and Mr. Stanley confirmed that
Laguna Savings and Loan would not enter into a written
agreement and they would not want anything recorded
against the property. In lieu of that, Mr. Stanley
agreed to supply some written acknowledgement for the
file, from Laguna Federal Savings and Loan to the
effect that the person who is operating the parking
facility, has the authority to operate the facility and
then the operator of the facility would enter into the
written agreement with Papagayo's and the City, which
would not be recorded against the property. However,
the agreement would contain the provision that
Papagayo's, as a measure of good faith and commitment
to comply with all of the provisions, despite the
Municipal Code provision that a revocation of a use
permit be subject to review by the Commission and
ultimate review by the City Council, would waive that
right and would agree to an automatic revocation if it
were established that there was a change in the parking
arrangement in violation of a condition that thereby
deprives them of available parking spaces.
Furthermore, as part of the agreement, Papagayo's would
be required within 30 days of any anticipated change to
notify the appropriate City representative of any
change to get prior approval from the Planning
Commission before execution of any change.
Mr. Gabriele further stated that it was his
understanding that Mr. Stanley would have had that

agreement finalized for presentation at the tonight's
hearing.
Chairman King stated that there are problems with what
Mr. Gabriele said. If for some reason the use permit
is approved, based on the agreement that Papagayo's was
able to get with the contracting agent for Laguna
Federal Savings and Loan, and for some reason Laguna
Federal Savings and Loan did not like the service
provided to them by the parking lot service and
discontinued that contract, then that essentially voids
the use permit.
Mr. Gabriele clarified his -statement by stating that if
there was going to be a termination of Papagayo's
parking right because of any decision of Laguna Federal
Savings and Loan, then at that point as long as the
City was given proper notice of that change, the use
permit would not be voided automatically. It is only
if Papagayo's is deficient in communicating the
prospective change to tho City that would result in a
possible forfeiture.
Mr. Gabriele further stated that the matter was handled
this way because Laguna Federal Savings and Loan did
not want to treat this branch differently than the
others, and as a consequence they would not permit
recording of any written agreement against that
property. The reason for the automatic revocation is
because the standard agreement is recorded against the
property, and the owner of the property is being bound
to that agreement so that the City would have an
immediate recourse if there was a breach in that
agreement, whereas if there is a change and nothing is
recorded against the land and no one will know about
that change unless the permittee notifies the City.
The item that revokes the use permit would be
non -notification of the City.
Chairman King -stated that the parking agreement
contained in the staff report is deficient for the
following reasons:
1) It is not a parking agreement for the deficiency of
Papagayo's because as it is worded, the twenty cars
in which they have an agreement only apply when
people can't find a place on the street to park;

2) The one -hour parking limitation has no kind of

take a ticket, are timed, and then assessed a fee

Chairman King further stated that these are the kinds
of things that he would be interested in if some type
of agreement were made.
Commissioner Balalis asked Mr. Davidson if he would be
prepared to return in two weeks with a signed parking
agreement containing all of the concerns of the
Commission. Mr. Davidson stated that he would submit a
revised parking agreement at the next meeting as
requested by the Commission.

SUBJECT: Illegal Conversion of Papagayo's Take-out Restaurant
into a Full Service Restaurant -
Dear Sirs:
The Planning Department informed you on.- July 8, 1985 that Use Permit
No. 3041 was approved only to allow the establishment of a take-out
restaurant with incidental dining and the service of on -sale beer and
wine on the subject property. However, inspection of the property by
Planning Department staff indicated that the restaurant facility has
been altered into a full service restaurant without the approval of an
amended use permit.
Although a representative of the restaurant facility discussed this
matter with our staff., the amended use permit to change the operation-
al characteristics has not yet been received. The next deadline to
file applications for Planning Commission consideration is on Friday,
September 27, 1985, for the Planning Commission agenda on October 24,
1985. If the facility has not been converted back to a take-out
facility with incidental seating, or the required use permit applica-
tion is not received by September 27, 1985, the Planning Department
will have no alternative but to refer this matter to'the Planning
Commission with staff's recommendation for the revocation of Use
Permit No. 3041.
Pleasa feel free to contact Bill Ward in the Planning Department if
you desire any assistance. A use permit application and information
sheet are attached.
Very truly yours,
