Dear Ms. Schaffner,
On July 28, 2022, the Zoning Administrator held a noticed public hearing on the required
annual review of the Development Agreement between the City of Newport Beach and
the Irvine Company for North Newport Center. The Zoning Administrator found that the
Irvine Company was in good faith compliance with the terms of the North Newport
Center Development Agreement. The approved minutes of the July 28, 2022 meeting
are available online at the following link:
http://newportbeachca.gov/ZoningAdministrator.
Given this determination, the Development Agreement remains in effect and the North

Should you have any questions regarding the 2021 Annual Review of the North Newport
Center Development Agreement or this letter, please contact me at (949) 644-3312.

Introduction
The purpose of the 2021 Annual Report (AR) for North Newport Center is to provide an accurate record of the
development that has occurred within North Newport Center during 2021. The North Newport Center Planned
Community Development Plan (NNCPC) as approved in 2007 included the following sub-areas: Fashion Island,
Block 500, Block 600 and San Joaquin Plaza. The NNCPC was subsequently amended in November 2009 to include
portions of Blocks 100, 400, 800 and an open space parcel from the Newport Village Planned Community. The
NNCPC was amended again in 2011 to expand Block 800 to include the Pacific Mutual Financial Center.
Subsequently in 2012, the NNCPC was amended to increase the allowable residential development intensity by
a total of 94 units and allocating the 94 units plus the 430 residential units already allocated to the MU-H3
portions of the NNCPC solely to San Joaquin Plaza. In connection with the amendment to the NNCPC, an amend-
ment to the Zoning Implementation and Public Benefit Agreement DA2007-002 (Development Agreement) was
approved. The Development Agreement amendment included the incorporation of portions of Blocks 100, 400,
the open space parcel in Newport Village, Block 800 in its entirety, as well as the additional 94 residential units.
In 2015, the NNCPC was amended for a fourth time to allow for a transfer of development intensity from outside
the NNCPC, to include a portion of Block 500, and to update various regulations. This AR contains several tables
that show development within North Newport Center as a whole and development by sub-area. The tables
provide a comprehensive review of the development within North Newport Center in terms of existing
development, maximum development (allowed by the General Plan) and development that has occurred during
2021. The tables break down each sub-area of North Newport Center individually and track the area developed
by land use, as applicable. A map that depicts the sub-areas within the NNCPC covered by this AR is shown as
Figure 1.

Development Summary
Annual monitoring of development is required by Development Agreement 2007-002 between the City of
Newport Beach and Irvine Company as part of the North Newport Center Project which is in effect until 2032.
Below is a list of permits that were issued within North Newport Center between January and December 2021.
Not included in the list are accessory permits such as those for signs, cell sites, ADA upgrades, mechanical
equipment or elevator repairs, or repairs and upgrades within the Villas at Fashion Island and The Colony
residential developments. Note that the City bases the building permit gross floor area (g.f.a.) calculations on
the Building Code definition and not the entitlement g.f.a. on the definition contained in the NNCPC,
4th Amendment, which is slightly different from the Building Code and excludes support uses (Section II.3). There
were no permits issued or finalized in 2021 that resulted in changes to the gross floor area entitlement.

demolished, not the square footage stated in a demolition permit. Similarly, the “Built” column reflects the
square footage provided in a Certificate of Use and Occupancy and not the square footage stated in a building
permit. There were no permits issued or finalized in 2021 that resulted in changes to the gross floor area
entitlement.

4.9 B. Fashion Island Water Quality Enhancements – Fashion Island Parking Areas
Fashion Island WQMP Master Plan and Treatment - A master treatment plan has been created for all parking
lot surface areas in Fashion Island, taking into consideration timing of development phasing, maximizing
treatment potential for non-development areas and implementing construction efficiencies for cost
minimization.
Technical oversight on treatment design and selection to meet State Water Quality Treatment requirements
utilizing bio-retention, media filtration and other technology was provided by Stantec Civil Engineering, NMG
Soil Engineering and Geosyntec Engineering, a leading bio-retention engineering company.
The proposed treatment plan when fully implemented would treat 95% of the parking lot surface areas and 95%
of building and hardscape areas. The treatment design will include four bio-retention systems and six media
cartridge vault systems designed to treat a total tributary area of 1,687,617 square feet of surface parking area,
including 1,539,099 square feet of Non-Development area. An additional 1,283,180 square feet of retail building
area, including 1,096,658 square feet of Non-Development area, will be treated as a result of utilization of
existing storm line systems. Nineteen percent of non-development tributary area will be treated by bio-retention
systems with the remaining 81% treated by media cartridge vault. Additional water quality improvements will
occur in future years.
The following tables identify the Non-Development Water Quality Treatment from 2008 through December 31,
2014, and the compliance to date with Section 4.9, Paragraph B of the Development Agreement. Water quality
treatment costs in 2014 include maintenance of the water quality treatment systems.
