Subject Property and Surrounding Land Uses
The subject property is 100 feet wide and 290 feet deep with land.area of_29,000 square feet. The
subject property is currently developed with a single story veterinary hospital building containing
3,890fr gross square feet and related parking area To -the northeast, are support commercial uses and
light industrial uses and related parking areas; to the southeast, across Birch Street, is the Benihana
Restaurant; to the southwest, is the Newport Stationers facility, light industrial uses and related parking
areas; and to the northwest is an existing office building and related parking area.
Conformance with the General Plan
The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the site for "Administrative, Professional and
Financial Commercial" use. The wdsting use is allowed under support retail and service use. The Land
Use Element has also established area specific land use policies throughout the City. These "area"
policies set a site -by -site floor area ratio (FAR) development limit of 0.5/0.75. In accordance with the
allowable FAR, the subject property is permitted 14,500 square feet of gross floor area (29,000 sq.ft. x
0.5=14,500 sq.ft.). Based on the attached plans, the total gross building area proposed on the site will
be 7,81142 gross square feet or 0.2693 FAR Therefore, the proposed project is conformance with the
provisions of the Land Use Element of the General Plan.
Background
Records maintained by the Building Department indicate that the existing 3,631f square foot
veterinary hospital was constructed in 1965, at which time Section 20.42.045 of the Municipal Code
required that one parking space be provided for each 350 square feet of gross floor area in any building
in the M 1-A District. Thus, 11 parking spaces would have been, required to serve the building
(3,631t sq.ft.:- 350 =10.37 or 11 spaces).
On September 12, 1977, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1751, approving Amendment No.
497 to the Zoning Code, which specifies the following parking requirement in the M-1-A District.
z
(a) ADMINISTRATIVE AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SPACE. One (1). space for
each 225 square feet of net floor area. The parking requirement may be lowered to
one (1) space for each 250 square feet of net floor area upon review and approval of
the modifications Committee.
(b) MANUFACTURE, RESEARCH AND ASSEMBLY. Three (3) spaces for each one
thousand (1,000) square feet of gross floor area
(c) WAREHOUSE. One (1) space for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of gross
floor area for the first twenty thousand (20,000) square feet; one (1) space for each
1 The attached plans incorrectly indicate that the floor area of the existing building is 3,720 square feet
2 The attached plans incorrectly indicate that the total proposed floor area will be 7,669 square feet
TO: Planning Commission - 3
two thousand (2,000) square feet of gross floor area for the second twenty thousand
(20,000) square feet; one (1) space for each four thousand (4,000) square feet of gross
floor area for areas in excess of the initial, forty thousand (40,000) square feet of floor
area of the building.
In accordance with the amended Section 20.42.045 of the Municipal Code, the existing building,
having 3,631f sq.ft. of space, would generate a demand for 17 parking spaces (3,631f sq.ft. = 225
sq.ft. = 16.1, or 17 spaces). There are currently 18 legal parking spaces on the site, therefore, the
existing building conforms to the commercial/office parking requirement.
On August 6, 1964, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No. 1061, which involved a
request to establish a veterinary hospital on the subject property located. The Planning Commission
did not approve any outside use of the facility as reflected on the original plot plan. No conditions of
approval were -required, but the Commission made the finding that "upon a review of the evidence on
file and testimony presented at the meeting, the Commission found and determined that, under the
circumstances of the particular case, a veterinary hospital at this location would not be detrimental to
the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort and general welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood and, therefore, recommended approval".
At its meeting of February 20, 1992, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No. 1061
(Amended) which permitted the addition of bathing, grooming and boarding of dogs and cats within
the existing facility and the approval of 15 outdoor kennels and an exercise area. The action of the
Planning Commission was taken with the findings and subject to the conditions of approval set forth in
the attached excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes dated February 20, 1992.
Analysis
The applicant is proposing to construct a second building on the rear of the site, which will be used in
conjunction with the existing veterinary hospital. The new building will contain 3,949:0 gross square
feet and will contain an office area, pet bathing and grooming facilities, indoor dog kennels, and a cat
room, all on the first floor. The second floor will include an employee's lounge room and kitchen area
along with a proposed manager's office°. The facility currently operates between the hours of 7:00
a.m. to 6:00 p.rrL Monday through Friday; between 8:00 a.m. and 2100 p.m. on Saturdays; and is
closed on Sundays. A maximum of 7 to 9 employees work at the facility during peak hours of
operation. The number of employees will not increase in conjunction with the proposed
expansion. The following outline sets forth the major characteristics of the proposed project.
'The attached plans incorrectly indicate that the floor area of the proposed building is 3,489•square-feet.
It is noted that although the attached plans indicate that the second floor will be used as an employees
lounge/kitchen, and a manager's office, the attached letter from the applicant's engineer indicates that the second
floor area will be used as a caretaker's apartment It is further noted that such a use is permitted in the M-1-A
District in accordance with Section 20.42.020 of the Zoning Code.

Off -Street Parking Requirement -
The Zoning Code does not contain a specific parking requirement for veterinary hospitals in the M 1-A
District. However, as indicated on the attached site plan, the applicantis proposing to provide 25 off-
street parking.spaces which equates to one parking space for.each 289, square feet of floor area. It is
'staffs, opinion that 25 parking spaces would be adequate for the proposed facility. However, there is
some concern that if the veterinary hospital were ever to go out of business, the buildings on the
subject property would not comply with -the commercial parking requirement for the M 1-A District.
For this reason, the applicant has prepared an alternate site plan (Sheet A 1.1 of attached plans) which
shows how the additional off-street parking could be provided if the veterinary hospital were ever
replaced by office or commercial uses. Based on the office%mmercial parking requirement of one
parking space for each 225 square feet, the subject project would require 32 parking spaces (6,740;0
sq.ft. =225 sq.ft. = 29.9 or 30 parking spaces). It is also noted -that the Modifications Committee•may
S The building area for the alternate site plan is reduced from 7,200 sq.fL to 6,740 sq.fL as a result of the
elimination of the 460 sqA crematorium.
TO: Planning Commission - 5
also approve a parking requirement of one parking space for each 250 square feet or 29 parking spaces
(6,740f sq.ft. _ 250 sq.ft. = 26.9 of 27 spaces) depending on the type of commercial use that might
occupy the buildings. Based on the -alternate site plan,. -the -applicant is able to .provide 30 off-street
parking spaces; therefore, the physical development of the site will not preclude the future office or
commercial use of the site.
Proposed Crematorium
As indicated on the attached plans, the applicant is proposing to construct a 460 square foot addition to
the existing veterinary hospital building which will be used to house a crematorium. As indicated in the
attached specifications, the crematorium will be smokeless and odorless and is constructed in
accordance with applicable EPA permits. Staff has no objections to the proposed crematorium.
Specific Findings
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. Should the Planning Commissiorr wish to approve
Use Permit No. 1061 (Amended), the findings and conditions of approval set forth in the attached
Exhibit "A" are suggested. -Staff has not included an exhibit for denial of'the subject application
inasmuch as we are unable to determine sufficient findings for denial. However, the possibility remains
that information may be provided at the public hearing which may provide adequate basis for denial of
the project should the Planning Commission wish to take such an action.,

Commissioner Pomeroy suggested a partial, roof that would extend

Commissioner Glover stated that based on the neighbors' concerns,
the subject area may not be proper for outdoor kennels.
Commissioner Debay supported the substitute motion wherein she,
pointed out that Condition No. 4,, Exhibit "X, requires solid roof
structures over all outdoor kennels and dog runs. The solid roofs
and the masonry wall would address the neighbors' concerns, and
the applicant would not be required to construct enclosed buildings
around the kennels.
Ms. Flory .and Mr. Hewicker. discussed the masonry material and
the type of construction that would be the most beneficial to
protect the neighbors from the barking noise.
Discussion ensued regarding the location of the solid 'masonry wall.
Mr. Hewicker suggested that the solid wall be constructed along

ATTN.: Javier Garcia
RE.: Facility expansion at 4263 Birch Street in Newport Beach, Calif. for
the Back Bay Veterinarian Hospital and Kennels.
(FN 94-1924)
Dear Mr. Garcia,
Please find enclosed our package for the proposed Back Bay Veterinarian indoor kennel
expansion. We think the concept is a significant asset to the older architecture in the
area and we hope that you will agree and approve it without exception.
However, there is a need for parking relief with the proposed improvements. The plans
call for a crematorium, an indoor kennel expansion and a caretaker's apartment built
above the kennel. These are all uses which do not burden the existing parking.
It seems that your most significant concern has been the controversy over the parking
ratios at the property which you suggest may be subject to a future use change such as
professional space. We recognize and agree with the parking requirement of 1:225
(1:250 for this project based on the 1986 filing approval) for any type of professional
space. Furthermore, we understand that your concern and the potential for such a future
change is valid even though this particular area is composed of a mix of light industrial
and so forth. In the property's present use as a Veterinarian Hospital and Kennel, the

Subiect Property and Surrounding Land Uses
The subject property is 100 feet wide and 290 feet deep with land area of 29,000 square feet. The
subject property is currently developed with a single story veterinary hospital building containing
3,89011 gross square feet and related parking area. To the northeast, are support commercial uses and
light industrial uses and related parking areas; to the southeast, across Birch Street, is the Benihana
Restaurant; to the southwest, is the Newport Stationers facility, light industrial uses and related parking
areas; and to the northwest is an existing office building and related parking area..
Conformance with the General Plan
The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the site for "Administrative, Professional and
Financial Commercial" use. The existing use is allowed under support retail and service use. The Land
Use Element has also established area specific land use policies throughout the City. These "area"
policies set a site -by -site floor area ratio (FAR) development limit of 0.5/0.75. In.accordance with the
allowable FAR, the subject property is permitted 14,500 square feet of gross floor area (29,000 sq.ft. x
0.5=14,500 sq.ft.). Based on the attached plans, the total gross building area proposed on the site will
be 7,811:0 gross square feet or 0.2693 FAR Therefore, the proposed project is conformance with the
provisions of the Land Use Element of the General Plan.
Background
Records maintained by the Building Department indicate that the existing 3,631t square foot
veterinary hospital was constructed in 1965, at which time Section 20.42.045 of the Municipal Code
required that one parking space be provided for each 350 square feet of gross floor area in any building
in the M-1-A District. Thus, 11 parking spaces would have been required to serve the building
(3,631t sq.ft. _ 350 =10.37 or 11 spaces).
On September 12, 1977, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1751, approving Amendment No.
497 to the Zoning Code, which specifies the following parking requirement in the M 1-A District.
(a) ADMINISTRATIVE AND PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SPACE. One (1) space for
each 225 square feet of net floor area. The parking requirement may be lowered to
one (1) space for each 250 square feet of net floor area upon review and approval of
the modifications Committee.
(b) MANUFACTURE, RESEARCH AND ASSEMBLY. Three (3) spaces for each one
thousand (1,000) square feet of gross floor area.
(c) WAREHOUSE. One (1) space for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of gross
floor area for the first twenty thousand (20,000) square feet; one (1) space for each
1 The attached plans incorrectly indicate that the floor area of the existing building is 3,720 square feet.
2 The attached plans incorrectly indicate that the total proposed floor area will be 7,669 square feet.
TO: Planning Commission - 3
two thousand (2,000) square feet of gross floor area for the second twenty thousand
(20,000) square feet; one (1) space for each four thousand (4,000) square feet of gross
floor area for areas in excess of the initial forty thousand (40,000) square feet of floor
area of the building.
In accordance with the amended Section 20.42.045 of the Municipal Code, the existing building,
having 3,631f sq.ft. of space, would generate a demand for 17 parking spaces (3,631f sq.ft. + 225
sq.ft. = 16.1, or 17 spaces). There are currently 18 legal parking spaces on the site; therefore, the
existing building conforms to the commercial/office parking requirement.
On August 6, 1964, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No. 1061, which involved a
request to establish a veterinary hospital on the subject property located. The Planning Commission
did not approve any outside use of the facility as reflected on the original plot plan. No conditions of
approval were required, but the Commission made the finding that "upon a review of the evidence on
file and testimony presented at the meeting, the Commission found and determined that, under the
circumstances of the particular case, a veterinary hospital at this location would not be detrimental to
the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort and general welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood and, therefore, recommended approval".
At its meeting of February 20, 1992, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No. 1061
(Amended) which permitted the addition of bathing, grooming and boarding of dogs and cats within
the existing facility and the approval of 15 outdoor kennels and an exercise area. The action of the
Planning Commission was taken with the findings and subject to the conditions of approval set forth in
the attached excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes dated February 20, 1992.
Anal yLis
The applicant is proposing to construct a second building on the rear of the site, which will be used in
conjunction with the existing veterinary hospital. The new building will contain 3,9494? gross square
feet and will contain an office area, pet bathing and grooming facilities, indoor dog kennels, and a cat
room, all on the first floor. The second floor will include an employee's lounge room and kitchen area
along with a proposed manager's offid. The facility currently operates between the hours of 7:00
a.m, to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday; between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and is
closed on Sundays. A maximum of 7 to 9 employees work at the facility during peak hours of
operation. The number of employees will not increase in conjunction with the proposed
expansion. The following outline sets forth the major characteristics of the proposed project.
The attached plans incorrectly indicate that the floor area of the proposed building is 3,489 square feet.
It is noted that although the attached plans indicate that the second floor will be used as an employees
lounge/kitchen and a manager's office, the attached letter from the applicant's engineer indicates that the second
floor area will be used as a caretaker's apartment. It is further noted that such a use is permitted in the M-i-A
District in accordance with Section 20.42.020 of the Zoning Code.

The Zoning Code does not contain a specific parking requirement for veterinary hospitals in the M-I-A
District. However, as indicated on the attached site plan, the applicant is proposing to provide 25 off-
street parking spaces which equates to one parking space for each 289 square feet of floor area. It is
staffs opinion that 25 parking spaces would be adequate for the proposed facility. However, there is
some concern that if the veterinary hospital were ever to go out of business, the buildings on the
subject property would not comply with the commercial parking requirement for the M-1-A District.
For this reason, the applicant has prepared an alternate site plan (Sheet A 1.1 of attached plans) which
shows how the additional off-street parking could be provided if the veterinary hospital were ever
replaced by office or commercial uses. Based on the office/commercial parking requirement of one
parking space for each 225 square feet, the subject project would require 32 parking spaces (6,740:0
sq.ft. _ 225 sq.#. = 29.9 or 30 parking spaces). It is also noted that the Modifications Committee may

also approve a parking requirement of one parking space for each 250 square feet or 29 parking spaces
(6,7401 sq.ft. - 250 sq.ft. = 26.9 of 27 spaces) depending on the type of commercial use that might
occupy the buildings. Based on the alternate site plan, the applicant is able to provide 30 off-street
parking spaces; therefore, the physical development of the site will not preclude the future office or
commercial use of the site.
Proposed Crematorium
As indicated on the attached plans, the applicant is proposing to construct a 460 square foot addition to
the existing veterinary hospital building which will be used to house a crematorium. As indicated in the
attached specifications, the crematorium will be smokeless and odorless and is constructed in
accordancewith applicable EPA pennits. Staff has no objections to the proposed crematorium.
Specific Findings
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. Should the Planning Commission wish to approve
Use Permit No. 1061 (Amended), the findings and conditions of approval set forth in the attached
Exhibit "A" are suggested. Staff has not included an exhibit for denial of the subject application
inasmuch as we are unable to determine sufficient findings for denial. However, the possibility remains
that information may be provided at the public hearing which may provide adequate basis for denial of
the project should the Planning Commission wish to take such an action.

a request to permit the following additional services: bathing,
grooming and boarding dogs and cats within the existing facility,
and permitting outdoor kennels and exercise areas for the animals.
LOCATION: Lot 3, Tract No. 5169, located at 4263 Birch

Way, across from the Newport Place Planned
Community.
ZONE: M-1-A
APPLICANT: Dr. George Katcherian, Newport Beach
OWNER: Same as applicant
William Laycock, Current Planning Manager, distributed revised
staff reports regarding the subject application inasmuch as minor
revisions were made to Exhibit "A".
The public hearing was opened in connection with this item, and
Dr. George Katcherian, applicant, appeared before the Planning
Commission. In response to a question posed by Chairman Di
Sano, he concurred with the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A",
and he opposed Exhibit "B". Mr. Laycock explained that Exhibit "B"
requires that all of the uses be contained within the existing
building, or if the kennels and exercise areas are to be maintained
at the rear of the property, that those uses be enclosed by solid
walls and roofs so as to control the noise from barking dogs.
Exhibit "A" requires that the dog runs be roofed so the rain water
does not flow into the sewer system. Dr. Katcherian replied that
he would correct the concerns regarding the dog noise and
drainage problems, and he would concur with Exhibit "B" if he had

no other choice. Dr. Katcherian addressed the outdoor
improvements he made subsequent to when he purchased the
property from The Irvine Company.
In response to a question posed by Chairman Di Sano with respect
to why the applicant did not immediately respond to the Code
Enforcement Officer, Dr. Katcherian explained that he was
negotiating with the Police Department regarding a City Animal
Shelter on the site, and he had concluded the Police Department
would contact the Code Enforcement Office regarding the pending
negotiations.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Edwards
regarding the February 13,1992, Police Department memorandum
from W. P. Lyons, the Senior Animal Control Officer, Mr.
Katcherian explained that he was not previously aware of any
complaints from the adjacent neighbors, and the concern regarding
the runoff associated with cleaning the outdoor kennels would be
corrected. The neighbors indicated to Dr. Katcherian that after he
met with them, it was their 'impression that he was going to
construct a full-scale open kennel operation wherein be explained
that he had no plans to construct that type of facility.

Motion
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
INDEX
Motion was made to approve Use Permit No. 1061 (Amended)
subject to the findings and conditions in Exhibit "B".
Commissioner Merrill referred to Exhibit "B", Condition No. 5,
wherein he suggested that the applicant could come back to the
Commission with a plan for review. Mr. Hewicker explained that
said condition requires the applicant to enclose the dog runs and
kennels with solid walls and a roof. The number of kennels and
runs would be limited to those that currently exist on the property.
If the applicant wanted to add additional facilities to board animals
inside a building, the applicant would be required to amend the use
permit.
Robin Flory, Assistant City Attorney, explained that Exhibit "A",
Condition No. 2, states that a building permit is required for the
existing construction, and Exhibit "B" should also require a building
permit for additional construction.
Commissioner Pomeroy and Commissioner Debay discussed the
fact that Exhibit "B" requires an additional building with enclosed
dog runs, and no outdoor area for the animals.
Substitute motion was made to approve Use Permit No. 1061
(Amended) subject to the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A",
and to modify Condition No. 5 so as to provide a solid wall,
minimum 6 feet in height, be constructed so as to protect the
neighbors from the barking noise, and the wall would allow the
dogs to go outdoors.
Commissioner Edwards supported the substitute motion. In
response to a question posed by Commissioner Edwards,
Commissioner Pomeroy explained that the solid wood fence would
e removed and replaced with a sound wall that would reduce the
sound substantially. Mr. Hewicker suggested that a masonry wall
could be constructed along the side property line so the sound
coming from the dog kennels would carry toward the north -instead
of the south. He suggested a curb around the perimeter of the wall
so the wash water would flow into the sanitary sewer system.

Commissioner Pomeroy suggested a partial roof that would extend
back into the wall an additional 2 feet so as to capture the sound.
Commissioner Glover stated that based on the neighbors' concerns,
the subject area may not be proper for outdoor kennels.
Commissioner Debay supported the substitute motion wherein she
that Condition No. 4, Exhibit "X, requires solid roof
pointed out
structures over all outdoor kennels and dog runs. The solid roofs
and the masonry wall would address the neighbors' concerns, and
the applicant would not be required to construct enclosed buildings
around the kennels.
Ms. Flory and Mr. Hewicker discussed the masonry material and
the type of construction that would be the most beneficial to
protect the neighbors from the barking noise.
Discussion ensued regarding the location of the solid masonry wall.
Mr. Hewicker suggested that the solid wall be constructed along
the common property line between the subject property and
Newport Stationers, and a partial masonry wall be constructed on
the west and east sides of the run so as to contain the noise, and
to construct a partial roof over the runs so the animals would have
an area that would allow them to remain in the back of the run.
Commissioner Merrill determined that if the applicant enclosed the
entire rear yard with a 300 lineal foot, 6 foot high masonry wall,
the neighbors' concerns regarding the animal noise would be
addressed. The maker of the motion concurred with the foregoing
statements.
Commissioner Glover opposed the substitute motion based on her
concerns that an outdoor kennel is an incompatible use in the area.
Chairman Di Sano opposed the substitute motion based on the
development that has occurred in the area, and Exhibit "B" would
be more appropriate. He said that it may, be less expensive to
construct buildings as required in Exhibit "B" than to construct a 6
foot high, 300 foot long masonry wall.

RE.: Facility expansion at 4263 Birch Street in Newport Beach, Calif. for
the Back Bay Veterinarian Hospital and Kennels.
(FN 94-1924)
Dear Mr. Garcia,
Please find enclosed our package for the proposed Back Bay Veterinarian indoor kennel
expansion. We think the concept is a significant asset to the older architecture in the
area and we hope that you will agree and approve it without exception.
However, there is a need for parking relief with the proposed improvements. The plans
call for a crematorium, an indoor kennel expansion and a caretaker's apartment built
above the kennel. These are all uses which do not burden the existing parking.
It seems that your most significant concern has been the controversy over the parking
ratios at the property which you suggest may be subject to a future use change such as
professional space. We recognize and agree with the parking requirement of 1:225
(1:250 for this project based on the 1986 filing approval) for any type of professional
space. Furthermore, we understand that your concern and the potential for such a future
change is valid even though this particular area is composed of a mix of light industrial
and so forth. In the property's present use as a Veterinarian Hospital and Kennel, the
parking demand is in actuality quite low, in fact, significantly lower than the demands
placed upon the present supply of parking.
We wish to comply with the requirements of the building department for any type of
future modification. However, for the current owner and any subsequent owners with the
same use we ask that you grant parking relief for the enclosed concept which provides
for 1:310. in exchange we submit an alternate site plan which is in compliance with the
more stringent parking requirements for a possible change in future use. You will note
that the crematorium will be removed and the existing outdoor dog runs will be

demolished which will accommodate more parking for a future conversion to professional
