ZONES: R -1 and R -2 APPLICANT: Newport Harbor Yacht Club, Balboa -20- COMMISSIONERS • \0� April 9, 1992 MINUTES CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX OWNER: Same as Applicant Commissioner Pomeroy was absent at the March 19, 1992, Planning Commission meeting when the public hearing was opened for the subject application. However, he indicated that he had listened to the tape recording of said public hearing. James Hewicker, Planning Director, stated that since the Newport Harbor Yacht Club was established in the 1920's, the City's zoning and planning regulations have changed substantially. The yacht club is a legal, non - conforming use. The proposed expansion of the parking lot could have been considered in the existing R -1 and R -2 Districts; however, the yacht club would have been required to apply for a use permit to expand the parking lot. The yacht club is requesting to expand the parking facilities and the establishment is not requesting to intensify the facility. If the expansion of the parking lot, by removing the three residential structures, is an intensification of use of the property, the Planning Commission could require a use permit for the expansion of the parking lot under the existing Zoning regulations. The yacht club is proposing to remove the structures and to replace said dwelling units with between 16 and 18 parking spaces; therefore, additional off- street parking would be provided. Mr. Hewicker stated that a yacht club is a permitted use in an Open Space District subject to the approval of a use permit. Open Space zoning provides for uses that existed prior to the time the zoning was placed on the property. If it is the interpretation of the Planning Commission that the removal of the existing structures and additional parking is an intensification of the property, the Commission may request a use permit. Staff has conditioned the rezoning of the subject properties so as to provide the City with the same types of controls as a use permit, i.e. the screening of the lighting, landscaping, walls, dedicating the cutoff of the intersection of the alleys, etc. Mr. Hewicker addressed the letter from Anne Gifford, dated March 19, 1992, and her concerns regarding valet parking. Valet parking has never been a use that has been formally permitted by • the City with the exception that it would be allowed under a Special Events Permit. Said permits are normally granted to applicants on the basis of special events that may occur -21- COMMISSIONERS • ��0 April 9, 1992 MINUTES CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL Ill Jill INDEX occasionally. If it is the intent of the yacht club to provide valet parking continually, and it is an integral part of the parking, there would be a change in the operational characteristics of the yacht club. A change under the non - conforming regulations would require the applicant to come back to the City for a use permit. The yacht club is not requesting valet parking and the facility has never been granted valet parking on a permanent basis. Mr. Hewicker addressed the General Plan wherein he pointed out that the property is located in Statistical Area D-2. The narrative for Statistical Area D -2 specifically mentions the yacht club, the parking lot, and its continued use. It also makes reference to R -1, R -2, and MFR properties on the Balboa Peninsula. Policy statements are contained in the General Plan regarding maintaining integrity of the residential areas, and the removal of the three structures does not constitute a massive deterioration of the neighborhood. • The yacht club has a lighting fixture plan on the proposed Parking Lot Plan, and there is a condition in Exhibit "A' that requires the Planning Department to approve the ultimate lighting plan for the property. The Planning Commission is not necessarily approving the lighting fixture that is shown on the plan or the wattage of the lamps. The staff has a desire to work with the yacht club and the neighborhood to install the best lighting for the parking lot once the utility poles are removed. The yacht club initiated with the City the formation of the Undergrounding District and after the required processing is completed, the undergrounding.will proceed wherein he stated that it may take approximately 12 months. Commissioner Debay and Mr. Hewicker discussed the successful meetings that staff had with the yacht club and the adjacent residents. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Merrill regarding the relocation of the bus stop, Don Webb, City Engineer, explained that the request needs to be processed through the City Traffic Engineer and he would contact the Transit District. • Commissioner Merrill addressed landscaping improvements. Mr. Hewicker explained there is no standard for parking lot landscaping. Mr. Hewicker explained that the proposed landscape -22- COMMISSIONERS April 9, 1992 MINUTES CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX improvements are planned to mitigate the effects of removing the existing buildings and to enhance the property for the neighborhood. Commissioner Merrill, Mr. Hewicker, and Mr. Webb addressed the future property improvements that could be considered if the City had an opportunity to review the operation of the yacht club. Commissioner Edwards asked what the affect would be to a tax base in terms of rezoning to Open Space. Robin Flory, Assistant City Attorney, explained that the applicants may have determined that it would be a tax benefit to rezone to Open Space over Residential zoning wherein Commissioner Edwards opined that Open Space Zones have been reassessed by the County Assessor's Office, which could have an affect on the City's tax base. Commissioner Edwards addressed Ms. Gifford's letter dated April 7, 1992, stating that the approval of the application is not intended as a determination of a right to approval of any future zoning change application affecting different parcels. Mr. Hewicker stated that he has not known of an action that the Planning Commission has taken that binds the Commission to any future action. Ms. Flory stated that the Planning Commission cannot bind future Commissions to approve or disapprove a project. response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover, Mr. Hewicker explained that if the yacht club requested to construct a facility on the parking lot, a use permit would be required. The public hearing was opened in connection with this item, and . Timothy Collins, 412 Bellevue Lane, appeared before the Tanning Commission, and he stated that the applicant concurs with he findings and conditions in Exhibit 'W'. He stated that ubsequent to meetings with the neighbors, the two parties have eached a compromise, and the residents are supportive of the roposed parking lot, as revised. The Central Balboa Community sociation will address the aforementioned concern regarding the us stop. In reference to the staff report, he concurred with staffs esponses to Ms. Anne Gifford's letter of March 19, 1992.

Mr. Webb responded that the City would not normally obtain a fee without purchasing it Mr. Collins stated that the applicant would be agreeable to give an easement for that purpose. In reference to Condition No. 4 in ExUbit 'A". regarding sidewalk repair, Mr. Collins wanted to be assured that the applicant would not be improving the entire front footage along West Balboa Boulevard, and that it would only be the frontage contiguous to the subject three properties. Mr. Webb concurred with the foregoing statement. In reference to Conditions No. 9 and 10 in Exhibit 'A". regarding landscaping, Mr. Collins requested that the conditions be modified • to state approximate or average with respect to the request that the ees be at least 16 feet in height. The purpose of the request would be to allow the applicant to select the best trees that would accomplish maximum screening and possibly the width, breath, and maturity of the trees. Mr. Collins referred to a request submitted by Mr. Lee Rogaliner that an additional 42 inch boxed tree be lanted on the easterly boundary of the parking lot to increase the umber of specimen trees to five wherein he indicated that the pplicant would concur with the request. Discussion ensued etween the staff and the Commission regarding the applicant's request to modify Condition No. 9 from at least to approximate or erage. It was concluded that the condition would not be modified hereby Mr. Collins concurred with the decision. Dean Stevning, 701 West Bay Avenue, appeared before the Tanning Commission, and he referred to his letter of March 24, 992. He addressed the applicant's request to rezone the subject roperty and the intent of the yacht club inasmuch as the integrity f the neighborhood would be affected as well as the property slues of the homes that remain on 7th Street; he requested a Jarification of public and private parking lots; he questioned the eed for the yacht club to provide additional parking; and he • xpressed concern regarding the parking lot lighting. In response o a question posed by Commissioner Debay, Mr. Stevning stated e was not at the meetings between the applicant and the residents. -24- April 9, 1992 COMMISSIONERS \0 1 \ ��'o CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH MINUTES ROLL CALL 1 INDEX He stated he was not opposed to the proposed parking lot; however, he questioned the validity of the application. Commissioner Merrill pointed out that the applicant owns the subject property and they have come to the City for permission to rezone the subject property. Inasmuch as Mr. Stevning was not present when Mr. Hewicker made his presentation at the beginning of the subject public hearing, Mr. Hewicker restated his previous comments. Following a discussion regarding the previous statements, Mr. Collins reappeared before the Planning Commission whereby he confirmed his earlier statement that the yacht club was not currently negotiating the acquisition of properties, and there are no current plans to expand the total facilities, including parking. Chairman Di Sano suggested that Mr. Stevning read the subject staff report inasmuch as it provides a full description of public vs. private parking. Ms. Flory addressed Mr. Stevning's comments in his letter of March 24, 1992, wherein she stated that his statement was incorrect that the City Attorney indicated that the designation of parking as public or private being virtually the same. Ms. Flory explained that it is at the Commission's discretion to determine under Section 0.52.040 of the Municipal Code, Subsection 6, that private parking is a similar use to public parking in the Open Space District. Mr. Lee Rogaliner, 705 West Bay Avenue, appeared before the Planning Commission. He stated that he represented the omeowners at the meetings with the yacht club and the staff herein he confirmed that the residents concur with the revised arking Lot Plan. He addressed the yacht club's acceptance to add he fifth specimen tree, but he stated he is still not happy to see the emolition of the houses.

He determined there is a drastic difference; there is an intensification of use; and the use is incompatible with the adjoining uses. In response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover, Mr. Hewicker explained that the existing parking lot is currently in the Open Space District. Mr. Hewicker stated that the Open Space zoning was put on the property after the structures were demolished and the permits had been granted. Notion * Motion was made to adopt Resolution No. 1284, and approve Amendment No. 751, subject to the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A' (Revised), including an amendment to Condition No. 9 to add a fifth specimen tree on the easterly boundary of the parking lot, adjacent to the alley. Commissioner Debay stated that • a private parking lot is much more compatible to a residential neighborhood than a public parking lot inasmuch as the applicant is responsible for what occurs in the parking lot, and many disturbances occur in a public parking lot. Commissioner Glover supported the motion based on the result of the meetings between the City staff, the residents, and the yacht club. The yacht club as a building is a nice building, and her opinion was that residents moving into the neighborhood should consider the facility as a nice neighbor. Chairman Di Sano supported the motion on the basis that a private parking lot is similar in nature to a public parking lot. It is not an intensification of use.

DISCUSSION ITEM: General Plan Interpretation D_1 Request for interpretation of the provisions of the General Plan GP -LU: Element Land Use Element to determine whether a subdivision, which is in compliance with all provisions of the Subdivision Code, is allowed where the General Plan provides that the density limitation is staff's staff's based upon the original subdivisions in Corona del Mar. l� Interpre- tation James Hewicker, Planning Director, stated that when the City amended the General Plan in 1988, Irvine Avenue was the only area that was to be considered for future subdivisions of existing large parcels of land, and with few exceptions, there was a prohibition put into each Statistical Area of the General Plan which did not allow for the future subdivision of large parcels. The prohibition was not placed in the subject Statistical Area F -3. If the Commission approves a further subdivision of the parcel, then the General Plan should be amended. Patricia Temple, Advance Planning Manager, stated that when the General Plan Land Use Element was written, the language on the page gave variety so as not to be repetitive to what had already been written in the General Plan, and the intent of the two ways to eliminate subdivisions was the same. Hindsight would be that at the next 'housekeeping' amendment, that staff would go back to the areas indicating dwelling unit number limit and restate the "no subdivision language ". -30- COMMISSIONERS April 9, 1992 MINUTES � o1� � • V CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX Mr. Lynn Burnett, 706 Harbor Island Drive, appeared before the Planning Commission as a property owner of 2209 Bayside Drive. He addressed the fact that prohibition against further subdivision is clear in all of the residential statistical areas, with the exception of Statistical Area F -3, paragraph 7, which is the area that covers the subject property. It refers to future growth in the area of 172 dwelling units whereby staff explained that the projected growth was determined by counting all of the lots in the original Corona del Mar subdivision that was recorded in 1917. He said that with all of the resubdivisions that have occurred since 1917, that these 172 lots exist today, and is it the intent of the plan that all future growth in Statistical Area F -3 be concentrated in one area of Corona del Mar, and is it unlikely that 344 property owners would join together to demolish their existing homes and create 172 additional lots. In the absence of a specific prohibition against further subdivisions, the current General Plan does allow for subdivisions that are in compliance with all of the provisions of the • existing Subdivision Code. The proposed subdivision meets the minimum lot requirement and the lot size would be more than twice the minimum lot size specified and would be consistent with the surrounding lots on Carnation Cove. Mr. Hewicker explained that single family dwellings exist in Corona del Mar on R -2 lots whereby said dwellings could be demolished and two units could be legally built on the R -2 lot. He also pointed out that if there are three subdivided R -1 lots and two homes are constructed on the three lots, the two homes could be demolished and three new dwelling units could be constructed on the three original subdivided lots. Discussion ensued between the Commission and the staff regarding the aforementioned statements. In reference to a question posed by Commissioner Pomeroy regarding Statistical Division F -3 of the Land Use Element (7) Corona del Mar South, Ms. Temple explained that 1,072 dwellings units represents the calculation based on the combination of single family and duplex lots. The R -2 lots were multiplied by 2, and R -1 lots were multiplied by 1, and the result was 1,072 dwelling units. • ere are not 1,072 dwelling units in existence inasmuch as there are several lots that are under - utilized, and as of January 1, 1987, 900 dwelling units existed. -31- COMMISSIONERS April 9, 1992 MINUTES CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ROLL CALL INDEX Motion * Motion was made to adopt the opinion of staff that the intent of the General Plan is to prohibit the further subdivision of lots in the area which would result in additional dwelling units. Commissioner Glover supported the motion on the basis that the entire City is being considered, and the basic assumptions of the General Plan. Commissioner Pomeroy stated that what the staff has reported is what the property owners felt was the intent in writing the document, and it is not what the document states. Mr. Burnett is quite correct in his assumption, and he should be allowed to resubdivide his property until the City corrects the language in the General Plan. The lot has been vacant for about one year, and Commissioner Pomeroy believed that two dwelling units could be constructed on the property because most of the adjacent lots are • smaller. In response to a question posed by Chairman Di Sano, Commissioner Pomeroy replied that the Commission should immediately take action to correct the Land Use Element so that a similar situation does not occur again. Commissioner Merrill supported the motion, and he supported the staff analysis. He stated that the property owners found a loophole that does not meet the intent of the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Commissioner Debay supported the motion on the basis that property owners cannot automatically assume that R -1 lots can be split without going through the proper procedure. The property owners have the ability to apply for a General Plan Amendment and at that time, the Commission has an opportunity to address one specific lot. Chairman Di Sano supported the motion. The property owner has an opportunity to come back to the City. The interpretation allows the City to implement a "housekeeping" amendment to the Land Use Element and at the same time, allow the property owner to request a General Plan Amendment. os * * * * * Motion was voted on to adopt staff's intent of the General Plan.
