AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA,

CODE, RELATING TO THE PROTECTION OF PEDESTRIANS, VEHICLE TRAFFIC AND
LANDSCAPING
For many years, the City has experienced increased costs and maintenance issues resulting from
pedestrian activity within roadway center medians. These medians are designed exclusively to separate
opposing lanes of vehicular traffic and are not intended for pedestrian use. The presence of individuals in
these areas poses serious safety risks —especially in narrow medians —and leads to damage of public
infrastructure, higher maintenance costs, and disruptions to traffic flow. The amendment to the Municipal
Code aims to enhance public safety and preserve the integrity of the City's infrastructure.
Ordinance No. 2025-22 was approved by the following vote:
AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS: Barto, Blom, Grant, Kleiman, Stapleton, Weber
and Weigand
NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: None
ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS: None

The ordinance will become effective 30 days after adoption date. A copy of the above ordinance is available
at the City Clerk's Department, 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, California or by calling
