Condition No. 3, stating that "the Traffic Engineer
shall insure that the interim on -site circulation is
adequate to serve existing businesses and their
clientele ", because the Traffic Engineer may have to
require specific standards that may not meet the
satisfaction of Grace Industries. Mr. Burnham commented
that he does not have any objections to the recommended
changes in Conditions No. 4, 5, 6, and 7. Mr. Burnham
objected to Ms. Hoffman's recommendation of Condition
No. 7a that states "that the applicant shall provide to
the satisfaction of the City Traffic. Engineer an
agreement between MacArthur Associates, Ltd., the City
and the owner of the off -site parking areas which
insures the availability of all required off -site
parking until the parking structure is completed. In
the absence of such an agreement, the applicant shall
agree to construct the parking structure on Phase I ".
He cited that the City only will make sure that
agreements between the property owner and the applicant
will satisfy the conditions of approval imposed by the
• condition. Mr. Burnham recommended that Condition No.
7a state "that the applicant shall provide the City
with agreements between MacArthur Associates and owners
of off -site areas which contain provisions that
demonstrate compliance with conditions of approval that
require the provision of off -site parking spaces ". Mr.
Burnham further stated that he does not believe there
is a need for Ms. Hoffman's recommendation of Condition
No. 32.
Mr. Hewicker commented that he is questioning what the
position of Grace Restaurants is considering the letter
from Hoffman Business Consultants, Inc., requesting
changes in the staff report, and a letter received two
hours later containing an agreement between Grace
Restaurants and Yavar Industries and a letter stating
that Grace Restaurants is withdrawing their objections
to the Yavar Industries, Inc. use permit.
Commissioner Turner referred to . Ms. Hoffman's
recommendation to Condition No. 4 which states "said
valet service shall be conducted in a manner approved
by the City Traffic Engineer," adding "and shall be
free of charge to all customers of existing uses ", by
questioning if the Planning Commission has the ability
• to condition the fees of valet service, and that maybe
the fee should be an agreement between the applicant
and landlord? Mr. Burnham replied that this is the
manner in which the applicant proposes to implement the
Interim Parking Plan, and that this would insure that
-3-

there would be no charge to the customers of businesses
that are currently on -site. Commissioner Turner
asked how to define "customer ", and would they be
customers entering Baxter's Restaurant and Coco's
Restaurant? Mr. Burnham replied that this condition
specifying that the valet be without charge, be in
effect only during the span of the Interim Parking
Plan.
In response to Commissioner Turner's inquiry regarding
Ms. Hoffman's addition to Condition No. 7 stating that
"no on -site construction worker parking shall be
permitted ", Mr. Burnham stated that he agrees with the
addition to the condition considering that off -site
parking will be available to the construction workers,
and that if a construction superintendent would park
on -site for a short period of time that there would not
be a violation of the use permit.
Commissioner Turner stated his objection to Condition
No. 7a as recommended by Ms. Hoffman.
The public hearing opened in connection with this item,
and Mr. Walter Koontz, representing the applicant,
appeared before the Planning Commission. Mr. Koontz
stated that the applicant agrees with the findings and
conditions in Exhibit "A" with the exception of
Condition No. 7, in which case if the applicant cannot
provide 25 off -site parking spaces for the construction
workers, that the applicant be allowed to use off -site
parking spaces in the City of Orange and use a shuttle
system onto the site. He said that Yavar Industries
will be moving their offices off of the current
location site which will allocate two additional
parking spaces that would be available to the
construction superintendent on the site.
Mr. Koontz stated that he was surprised at Ms.
Hoffman's May 9, 1985, letter, because the applicant
had entered into an agreement with Grace Restaurants
which was submitted by Mr. Simondi.
In response to Chairman Winburn's question regarding
the 65 off -site parking spaces at the Consolidated
Savings Bank site in the City of Irvine, Mr. Koontz
• replied that the spaces will be for tenant employees.
Mr. Koontz referred to a letter from National
Education Corporation dated May 9, 1985, stating that a
month -to -month off -site parking lease is intended
between J. A. Jones Construction Company and National

Commissioner Turner asked how the applicant would
provide off -site parking for the construction workers
if the National Education Corporation's lease would
terminate at the end of 12 months? Mr. Koontz replied
that the applicant would utilize the 12 month plan for
off -site parking spaces on the National Education
Corporation property and the shuttle system at 1601
Orangewood Avenue in the City of Orange.
Mr. Koontz replied to Commissioner Koppelman, that the
total construction time of the office building and
parking structure will be 18 months.
In reply to Chairman winburn's question of why not
construct the parking structure first, Mr. Koontz
replied that there is a problem of finding an area to
relocate the existing tenants. Mr. Koontz stated that
if the tenants would be relocated in trailers that
would be located where the parking structure would be
built, then when the parking structure is completed,
there would not be available space to relocate the
trailers. Mr. Koontz stated that Jones Construction
Company will build only the portion of the building
that will accommodate the tenants, and then demolish
the existing buildings in order to construct the
parking structure, and then build the remaining office
building. Chairman Winburn asked if that would include
four tenants plus the Orange City Bank? Mr. Koontz
agreed and stated that the tenants appear to be
satisfied with the relocation plans as recommended by
the applicant.
Mr. Hewicker asked if the applicant had plans to
construct the first floor of the office building,
occupy same, and then build the remaining stories of
the office building? Mr. Martin Olson, J. Jones
Construction Company, appeared before the Planning
Commission. Mr. Olson replied that the shell of the
building will be constructed, and then the first floor
of the building will be completed in order to relocate
the bank tenant, and then the remaining portion of the
building will be completed. Mr. Olson explained that
the building will be entirely enclosed prior to the
time that the first floor is completed. Mr. Hewicker
confirmed with Mr. Olson that the building will be
finaled by the Building Department and then there would
be tenant improvement. Mr. Olson agreed.
Commissioner Eichenhofer asked if the bank building and
office building will be demolished? Mr: Olson agreed

building? Mr. Olson explained that the bank building
will be completed first, and thereafter, the remaining
portion of the building will depend upon the tenant
improvements.
Mr. Olson commented that the applicant has received a
firm commitment from National Education Corporation of
50 off -site parking spaces on a month to month basis.
Ms. Carol Hoffman, Hoffman Business Consultants, Inc.,
appeared before the Planning Commission. Ms. Hoffman
clarified Grace Restaurants' position with the
applicant by stating that Grace Restaurants never did
object to the project but that Grace Restaurants did
wish to clarify the conditions and correspond to the
agreement that was being drafted. In response to a
question posed by Commissioner Turner, Ms. Hoffman
replied that Grace Restaurants believed that it was
very important that Coco's Restaurant and Baxter's
Restaurant's customers have free valet parking.
The public hearing was closed at this time.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Eichenhofer asking if the National Education
Corporation's 50 off -site parking spaces would contain
25 employee parking spaces and the remaining area would
be utilized for construction equipment, Mr. H. M. Olson
of Jones Construction Company, replied that the
remaining parking spaces would not be used for
equipment.
Commissioner Goff stated that Finding No. 2 of the
Traffic Study, reads as if the Finding is for denial.

Exhibit "A ". Commissioner Turner stated that he
believes that there will be less disruption of

not have any off -site parking for construction
employees, and that the City will have the authority to
discontinue the project. Commissioner Turner requested
that "on an informal. basis" be deleted from Condition
No. 6 as the agreement is formal. In response to a
request from Commissioner Turner, Mr. Burnham
recommended that Condition 7a, recommended by Ms.
Hoffman, read "that the applicant shall provide the
City with written agreements that contain provisions
that demonstrate compliance with the conditions of this
use permit that require the provision of off -site
parking spaces" and that the condition may further read
"to the satisfaction of the Planning Director ". Mr.
Burnham cited that this would only relate to interim
parking.
Mr. Hewicker stated that staff is requesting that the
following condition be added: "If it is the desire of
the applicant to occupy the office building prior to
completion of all required on -site parking, the
applicant shall make arrangements with the Planning
Department and the City Attorney's office to guarantee
satisfactory completion of the required parking
improvements ". Mr. Hewicker explained that the purpose
of this condition is that the applicant will get a
building permit, build the building, and then get a
second building permit for the parking structure. The
condition will guarantee that when the applicant
completes the office building and occupies same, that
the City is guaranteed that they will complete the
parking lot construction. Commissioner Turner asked if
this would be a performance bond? 'Mr. Hewicker replied
that the Planning Department and City Attorney would
make the decision. Commissioner Turner stated his
approval of the added condition.
Mr. Burnham recommended that an amendment to the
proposed Condition No. 7a, recommended by Ms. Hoffman,
state "that require the provision of off' -site parking
spaces prior to the completion of the construction of
the parking structure."
Commissioner Turner responded to Chairman Winburn that
he is not recommending that Condition No. 4 be modified
as requested by Ms. Hoffman; that Condition No. 6 shall
be with a formal agreement or lease agreement and that
the letter has indicated there is a formal agreement.
Mr. Burnham explained that the purpose of Condition No.
7a, recommended by Ms. Hoffman, will be to require the

the property owner to guarantee the use of those spaces

Chairman winburn asked if "no on -site construction
worker parking shall be permitted" would be included in
Condition No. 7. Mr. Hewicker explained that he does
not believe there was an intent to prohibit
construction parking on the construction site. Mr.
Hewicker stated that it was his opinion that
construction workers are not to park in parking spaces
being used by Grace Restaurants and other tenants on
the property. Commissioner Turner explained that
Condition No. 7 as originally submitted stated "that
the off -site parking location shall be subject to the
City Traffic Engineer's approval" and that the Traffic
Engineer will accept a reasonable agreement between the
two parties.
Mr. Burnham recommended that Condition No. 6 be
amended to state "that construction workers shall be
permitted to park only on the construction site area
and not in spaces occupied by tenants ". Chairman
Winburn confirmed with Commissioner Turner that
Condition No. 32 shall be added as recommended by Mr.
Hewicker.
Substitute Commissioner Goff made a substitute motion to deny the
Motion x Traffic Study because Findings No. 3 and No. 4 cannot
be met as described by the Traffic Engineer and that if
the other developments that require to put in
improvements occur first, that the addition of this
development would increase the Intersection Capacity
Utilization to an unsatisfactory level of service.
Commissioner Goff opined that denial or approval of the
proposed Traffic Study will set a precedent of the
interpretation of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
Commissioner Turner stated that his interpretation of
the Traffic Engineer's study of the Traffic Phasing
Ordinance allows and provides for means of approving a
traffic study similar to the subject application.
Commissioner Goff referred to the Traffic Engineer's
Interpretation No. 1 that outlines the scenario that is
in direct opposition to the intent of the Traffic
Phasing Ordinance. He said that the scenario is as

whether or not the project meets the requirements of

The public hearing opened in connection with this item.
•
Mr. Jerry King, Jerry King & Associates, appeared
before the Planning Commission, representing the
applicant. Mr. King reviewed the application with
explanations. He stated that the architectural feature
that exceeds the 35 foot height limit is an
architectural feature similar to a lighthouse. Mr. King
further stated that the applicant is required to
furnish 18 parking spaces as a one for one replacement
for on- street parking spaces that are subject to loss
as a result of a left -hand turn lane on East Balboa
Boulevard at Adams Street, and that within a two year
period there may be a requirement for those 18 spaces
to be deleted from the public street. He said that the
applicant has attempted to mitigate the issue by
reducing the square footage of the restaurant that
equates to the 18 parking spaces that are held in
reserve in the structure and the applicant will not be
allowed to build the additional square footage at this
time.
Mr. King stated that the proposal includes a five level
parking structure, four levels above ground and one
level below, which will include 256 parking spaces, and
5 handicapped parking spaces at the rear of the Newport
Landing Restaurant, totalling 261 parking spaces. Mr.
King cited that the applications are architecturally
compatible, and the intent of, the applicant is to
mitigate the parking requirements of the entire
structure.

Mr. King cited that the corner structures that were not
included in the original application include two
commercial uses and two dwelling units which have not
had parking requirements. He said that if the subject
occupants are enticed into the proposed retail shops,
parking spaces will be provided for said tenants in the
parking structure. included in this proposal will be
parking spaces for the Newport Landing Restaurant and
15 parking spaces for the Fun Zone Marina.
Mr. King referred to Use Permit No. 3122, Condition No.
48 in which he stated that the applicant is requesting
a generator capable of operating only one elevator
instead of three elevators. Mr. King emphasized that a
generator strong enough to supply electricity for three
elevators would be an over -kill situation for the
subject structure, plus the power packs for the
Space -O- Matics and lighting. Donald Webb, City
Engineer, stated that the purpose is to have sufficient
electricity to clear the structure, and that one
standby generator would probably serve that purpose.
Mr. Webb said that the purpose of the power packs is to
lift the cars and if the power is off there would
probably not be a need to move cars. The Space -O- Matics
do not require much power, and that the power packs
have emergency hand pumps. Commissioner Person opined
that as the elevators do require power, the difference
between one and three electric motors is not great in
terms of kilowatt output and the cost of the generator
is not much greater. In response to an inquiry from
Commissioner Turner, Mr. King replied that the power
pack is operated by a self - contained hydraulic unit,
and a pump which also includes the emergency handle
release runs the Space -O- Matics.
Mr. Jim Bouzagoulu, appeared before the Planning
Commission, and stated that a hydraulic elevator needs
power to get to the highest landing, and to come down
does not require any power.
Mr. King referred to Condition No. 51 of Use Permit No.

condition read that the handicapped parking be
contained behind the Newport Landing Restaurant as a
convenience to the handicapped; Condition No. 56, the
hours of operation be extended to 2:00 a.m., 7 nights a

conjunction with the discontinuance of the
Space -O- Matics in the future because the applicant
feels that the condition is inappropriate for the
subject project. Mr. Hewicker replied that Condition
No. 78 was placed on the original project because of
the reservations regarding the Space -O- Matics on a long
term basis, and that the City may provide parking at a
later date for residential and commercial users in the
Balboa area. Mr. Hewicker stated that the only reason
the City may request to remove the Space- O -Matic system
is because the system was not successful, or it would
be substituted by City parking which would allow the
applicant to use that space for another purpose. Mr.
King explained that the applicant's tenant lease
agreement requires on -site parking and if the
Space -O- Matics would be removed, then half of the
parking would be immediately eliminated. Said provision
would require an off -site parking area, which would be
in violation of the tenant lease agreement.
Mr. Charlie Bauman, 2150 Miramar Drive, appeared before
the Planning Commission, as President of the Balboa
Improvement Association and Balboa Peninsula Point
Association, stating that the Associations approve of
the project and are very impressed by the parking
structure.
Mr. Walter Koontz, representing Yavar Industries,. R.

that Yavar Industries supports the project, and that
the Planning Commission understands that Yavar
Industries has a commitment for 15 parking spaces for
• the Fun Zone Marina in the parking structure, and that
there will be some assurance that those parking spaces
will be available in case there is disruption on the
site. Mr. Hewicker stated that 15 in -lieu parking
spaces will be provided by the Newport Landing
Restaurant in the municipal parking lot during the

Commissioner Person asked Commissioner Koppelman if
she would accept an amendment to Condition No. 65 that
states "that noise eminating from the building shall
not exceed 65 CNEL ". Commissioner Koppelman agreed.
Commissioner Person commented that he is in favor of
the project, that the project is vital to the Central
Balboa area, that the necessary parking spaces have
been provided for, that there will be a renovation and
cleaning up of the area and that he considers the
project to be a welcome addition to the community.
In reference to Condition No. 65, Mr. Hewicker
explained that the standard that the Planning
Commission has imposed, is that 55 dBA is a single
event measurement and CNEL noise levels- are measured
over an extended period of time. Commissioner Person
stated that he was referring to Condition No. 58 from
the June, 1984, Planning Commission minutes stating
"that noise emanating from the structure shall not
exceed 65 db CNEL at the property lines ". Commissioner
Turner stated that Condition No. 33 of Use Permit No.
3122, limits the noise to 55 dBA. Mr. Webb stated that
he believes that the single event dBA may be better to
utilize as it may be more difficult to apply the CNEL
reading without doing a 24 hour study and a dBA study
may be done immediately. Commissioner Person withdrew
his amendment to the motion.
Chairman Winburn stated that she will support the
motion because of the project's on -site parking,

FINDINGS:
1. That the proposed development is consistent with
the General Plan; the Land Use Plan of the Local
Coastal Program as conditionally certified by the
Coastal Commission and accepted by the City
Council; and is compatible with surrounding land
uses.
2. The proposed use of parking spaces which are not
• independently accessible and the use of compact
car spaces will not, under the circumstances of
this particular case, be detrimental to the
health, safety, peace, comfort, and general
welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood of such proposed use or be detri-
mental or injurious to property and improvements
in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the
City and further that the proposed modification is
consistent with the legislative intent of Title 20
of this Code.
3. The approval of Use Permit No. 3122 will not,
under the circumstances of this case be detri-
mental to the health, safety, peace, morals,
comfort and general welfare of persons residing
and working in the neighborhood or be detrimental
or injurious to property and improvements in the
neighborhood or the general welfare of the City.
4. The increased building height will result in more
public visual open space and views than is
required by the basic height limit.
5. The increased building height will result in a
more desirable architectural treatment of the
. building and a stronger and more appealing visual
character of the area than could be provided with
in the basic height limit.

opment standards as they relate to perimeter
fencing, a portion of the required parking,
building setbacks, walls and landscaping will be
of no further detriment to adjacent properties
inasmuch as the proposed take -out restaurant is
part of a larger overall development which in some
ways is not conducive to such standards, but is
designed in a way that meets the purpose and
intent of such design standards.
12. That the design of the. proposed improvements will
not conflict with any easements acquired by the
public at large for access through or use of
property within the proposed development.
