APPLICANT: Lido Shipyard Sausage Company, Newport
Beach
OWNER: Curci -Turner Co., Newport Beach
The Commission considered comments in the staff report that the
Planning Commission may desire to continue the subject item until
such time as the delinquent fair share fees have been satisfied.
The public hearing was opened in connection with this item, and
Mr. Chris Colvin, 3419 Via Lido, architect for the applicant,
appeared before the Planning Commission. Mr. Colvin concurred
with the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A ". He stated that the
delinquent conditions of approval in conjunction with the approval
of Use Permit No. 3266 (Amended) approved by the Commission
on July 18, 1991, have been met inasmuch as the parking plan was
submitted to the City Traffic Engineer for review.
Mr. Colvin stated that the applicant has explained that there are
other restaurants in the area that have expanded and a Fair Share

Fee was not required. The Fair Share Fee was not a condition of
approval when the aforementioned application was approved by
the Commission; however, it was imposed on the subject
establishment after the use permit was approved based on the
intensity of use. The applicant has indicated a desire to appeal the
required Fair Share Fee so as to express his feelings, and the
applicant's attorney recommended that the Fair Share Fee not be
paid until there has been some sort of appeal process. The
applicant has a desire to continue to operate his restaurant;
however, the Fair Share Fee is an undue economic hardship. The
subject property has an abundance of parking and the increase in
use of the restaurant will not impact the area significantly. In
reference to the subject application, Mr. Colvin explained that if
it is determined that the Fair Share Fee is necessary and upheld,
the applicant has explained that the gross square footage would
not be a fair assessment and the amount of "net public area" would
be a more fair assessment. The applicant has indicated that if the
Fair Share Fee is necessary that he would not be able to pay the
fee in full at one time.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Merrill, Mr.
Colvin explained that the Coastal Commission approved a waiver
of the Coastal Development Permit on February 18, 1993.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover, Mr.
Colvin explained that the applicant has indicated to the best of his
knowledge, that he has been assessed a Fee that no other
restaurants have been assessed, and the Fee is not being applied
consistently. The applicant has requested that if the Fee is not
waived that he be permitted to pay a lower Fee because he does
not feel that the square footage is justifiable.
Mr. Hewicker explained that the Fair Share Fee Ordinance is not
in Chapter 20 of the Zoning Code, which the Planning
Commission is typically involved with, and the Commission does
not have the authority to change the Fee, waive the Fee, or make
other changes to the Fee. The applicant should address his
concerns to the City Council if he has a desire to contest the Fair

Share Fee. Mr. Hewicker opposed the requested expansion of the
establishment and the restaurant collecting revenue from the
expanded business if the Fair Share Fee is not collected from the
extra traffic that the business is generating.
Don Webb, City Engineer, stated that the Fair Share Fee is
charged when a business applies for a Building Permit, based on
the gross floor area, not "net public area ". The traffic modeling
was based on gross square footage of the buildings, and the Fair
Share Fee is based on the number of trips generated and not
based on parking requirements. The Fair Share Ordinance has
been administered uniformly since 1984, and he stated that he was
not aware of any restaurants being excluded when an
establishment requested to expand their use or to construct new
facilities. The Fair Share Fee has not been shown separately as an
item and condition because it is under the Uniform Building Code,
.
Chapter 15, and it is administered when Building Permits are
pulled.
Chairman Edwards asked if the Commission could dictate, as a
condition, the imposition of the Fair Share Fee inasmuch as it
would impose the Fair Share Fee and the applicant could appeal
the decision to the City Council. Mr. Laycock explained that when
the subject establishment was expanded in 1991 a door existed into
the adjacent suite, and therefore, a Building Permit was not
required. The Planning Department sent a letter to the applicant
after the expansion requesting the Fair Share Fee. Robin Flory,
Assistant City Attorney, suggested that the Commission could
continue the item to discuss the issue with the applicant, or the
Commission could add a condition that would require the
applicant to pay past due Fair Share Fees prior to the issuance of
Building Permits for the expanded restaurant facility.
Commissioner Pomeroy asked if a levy of the Fair Share Fee had
been done without the exercise of a Building Permit. As an
example, Mr. Hewicker explained that a Building Permit is not
required when a medical practice moves to another office;

however, if there is an intensification of use, the Planning
Department collects the Fair Share Fee.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Ridgeway, Ms..
Flory explained that if the applicant has not complied with all of
the provisions of the Code that are required, would the
Commission want to approve the request based upon the findings
concerning the general health, safety, and welfare. The Fair Share
Ordinance is part of the requirements of the Code on the basis
that the Ordinance was adopted to raise money to provide
transportation facilities for the City. The City has enforcement
mechanisms to collect the Fair Share Fee from the applicant.
Commissioner Ridgeway expressed his disapproval of the applicant
scoffing the Ordinance, and he stated that he would not support
a motion to approve the request wherein he suggested that the
request be continued for further discussion.
Commissioner Gifford and Commissioner DiSano expressed their
opinion that it would not be inappropriate to add a condition
requiring the Fair Share Fee, and the applicant could subsequently
appeal the decision to the City Council.
Commissioner Pomeroy and Mr. Colvin discussed the applicant's
concerns regarding the payment of the Fair Share Fee. Mr. Colvin
addressed the gross square footage of the facility wherein he
explained that the restrooms are a common area to the building
and not particularly to the restaurant and he suggested that the
square footage of the restrooms be deducted from the overall area
of the building. Mr. Hewicker responded that the restrooms are
necessary for the restaurant.
There being no others desiring to appear and be heard, the public
hearing was closed at this time.
Motion
Motion was made to approve Use Permit No. 3266 (Amended),

with Section 15.38 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code unless
otherwise waived or modified by the City Council. Ms. Flory
suggested that Finding No. 6 be added stating that the applicant
has not paid the Fair Share Fee that was previously required The
maker of the motion concurred with the recommendation.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Ridgeway, Mr.
Hewicker explained that the applicant would not be permitted a
Building Permit until the Fair Share Fee is paid if a Building
Permit is required. Ms. Flory commented that the Planning
Commission has the authority to revoke the use permit or the
requirement could be enforced through the Court process.
Commissioner Pomeroy commented that the restrooms are not
directly accessible from the restaurant, and if they are not located
in the leased area, the restrooms represent approximately 250
square feet which would result in a Fair Share Fee of $418.00
plus $798.00 for the additional outdoor dining area, which would
mean an adjusted figure of $1,206.00.
Commissioner Gifford and Ms. Flory discussed the feasibility of
adding a condition requesting a time limit of when the Fair Share
Fee would be paid. Chairman Edwards suggested that the added
condition could state that the use permit shall not become
effective until such time as the Fair Share Fee has been paid. The
maker of the motion agreed to amend the motion.
Commissioner Pomeroy recommended to continue the use permit
inasmuch as there is an opportunity to make a compromise in
consideration of the aforementioned reduction in square footage
concerning the restrooms which would reduce the required Fair
substitut
Share Fee. Substitute motion was made to continue Use Permit

Commissioner Gifford requested a clarification of the sound
amplification conditions approved in conjunction with Use Permit
No. 3071 as stated in the staff report. William Laycock, Current
Planning Manager, explained that staff used the conditions of
approval as approved by the Planning Commission on July 5, 1984,
and amended by the City Council on August 27, 1984: Condition
No. 7 states that outdoor sound amplification shall be limited to
the hours of 12:00 noon to dusk, the last two days of each club
tennis tournament as well as the swim meets. The condition also
states that amplified sound shall not extend beyond the boundary
of the club and that pertains to any sound at any time.
Commissioner Gifford addressed the applicant's request to allow
the doors between the pool area and the main dining room to
remain open while live entertainment and dancing is conducted
inside the clubhouse provided that the noise from such activity
does not exceed 50 dBA at the property lines. Mr. Hewicker
•
explained that the noise standard is typically used in conditions on
various use permits. It is difficult to state that sound cannot be
heard beyond the perimeter of the property, but the level of 50
dBA or 55 dBA is normally an acceptable standard. Mr. Hewicker
responded that the condition refers only to amplification and it is
difficult in a tennis club environment to keep the public address
system and the announcement of the matches from going beyond
the property line. Mr. Hewicker stated that the conditions were
added to the use permit many years ago because the tennis club
operates in a residential environment and, the City did not want
the club to become a source of irritation, noise, or distraction to
the adjoining residential neighborhoods. He further explained that
the inconsistencies in the conditions occurred because of the
numerous amendments to the use permit. Mr. Hewicker replied
that the only outdoor amplification that the tennis club is allowed
is for announcements on certain approved tournaments for which
the club receives a Special Events Permit, and for the various
other social events that occur outdoors which are permitted by the
use permit. In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Gifford regarding Condition No. 25, Exhibit "A", Mr. Hewicker
explained that the condition does not apply to the typical truck
.
delivery which delivers provisions to the clubhouse. The condition
-16-

was imposed on the use permit several years ago as a result of a
major tournament where there were refrigeration trucks and extra
generators that disturbed the neighborhood.
Commissioner Glover addressed Condition No. 8, Exhibit 'B"
stating that paging would not be allowed with the exception of
emergency announcements. In response to a question posed by
Commissioner Glover regarding Condition No. 20, Exhibit "B ",
regarding the two outdoor luaus and barbecues, Mr. Hewicker
stated that Condition No. 20 was included to restrict the applicant
on the number of outdoor events that would be permitted at the
club.
The public hearing was opened in connection with this item, and
Mr. Jerry King, J. A. King & Associates, appeared before the
Planning Commission on behalf of the applicant. Mr. King
explained that the subject application reflects the modifications
that the new owner, Mr. Pfahler, wishes to make to the tennis club
inasmuch as several previously approved operational characteristics
are no longer pertinent to the present operation. Mr. King stated
that the applicant has agreed to comply with the findings and
conditions in Exhibit "B", as suggested by staff:, with the following
exceptions. Condition No. 7, Exhibit "B ", stating that the outdoor
sound amplification shall be limited to the hours from 9:00 a.m. to
dusk, the last two days of each of the eight tennis tournaments..,
Mr. King requested that the condition be amended to 9:00 am. to
9:00 p.m. during the winter months inasmuch as dusk could be at
4:00 p.m., and 9:00 pm. would be an hour before the club closes
at 10:00 p.m. In reference to Condition No. 6, Exhibit 'B ", Mr.
King stated that the applicant would submit a list of the
tournaments to the City that are traditional tournaments; however,
the club should be permitted flexibility in accepting additional
tournament play for charities during the year that the club may not
have had applications for at the beginning of the year. The

there are parking violations so as to call the member off the court
to remove the car. In reference to Condition No. 13, Exhibit 'B ",
regarding the operation of the restaurant and permitted private
parties, Mr. King stated that the restaurant would serve the club's
purpose by trying to recruit new members by allowing the public
to come into the restaurant use, and the club would like to
announce to the community that the facility is available to local
people. It is a small restaurant and a small kitchen, and there is
no intention to expand the restaurant to attract the people from
outside the area or to create a destination point.
In reference to Condition No. 15, Exhibit "B ", regarding the courts
that would permit tennis lessons, Mr. King requested that Court
No. 9 be eliminated inasmuch as it is an inaccessable interior
court. The condition would state that tennis lessons shall be
permitted only on Courts No. 1 -8, 11, and 12... Mr. King pointed
out that the court numbering system that he was using at the
beginning of his remarks differs from the court numbering system
that is attached to the staff report and there could be some
confusion regarding the court numbers at a later date. Condition
No. 29, Exhibit "B ", regarding tennis court lighting, requires the
club to modify the lighting so that the lighting would not be
detrimental to the residential area. Condition No. 37, Exhibit "B ",
allows the club to provide security low -glare lights all night for
security purposes.
In reference to Condition No. 30, Exhibit 'B ", requesting that the
doors and windows shall be kept closed during the time live
entertainment is being provided, Mr. King stated that the club
would comply with the condition inasmuch as the recommendation
would provide protection to the community.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover with
respect to Condition No. 7, Exhibit "B ", regarding the hours of
outdoor sound amplification, Mr. King explained that the condition
applies only to amplified tournament play and amplification is not

Mr. Albert Cook, 2087 Catalpa Street, appeared before the
Planning Commission to express his concerns regarding the noise
that is caused by the bleacher setup and tear down for
.
tournaments; that the restaurant would be opened up to the
public; and that automobiles park in residential areas on
tournament days. He expressed his approval of the way that the
private tennis club was originally operated, and he requested that
no changes be made to the existing operation. Mr. Cook did not
object to the existing lighting.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Glover, Mr. Cook
explained that if the tennis club would be opened up for public
use, it would no longer be a private club.
Mrs. Susan Doering, 2627 Blackthorn Street, appeared before the
Planning Commission. Mrs. Doering commented that the original
conditions to Use Permit 3071 were fair to the tennis club and to
the residents and that was done effectively. Her primary concerns
are that the police have not enforced the noise complaints that
have been submitted to them by the residents; that a stop sign be
installed at the tennis club exit; and that the paging system should
not be used to contact the guests regarding parking violations.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Ridgeway, Mrs.

to the tennis club, the police may not see any violations of the
State Criminal Penal or Municipal Code for enforcement purposes.
She recommended that the residents contact the Planning

sound amplification; his community is moderately impacted by the
parking violations; and the restaurant opening to the public is a
non - event. In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Ridgeway, Mr. Deguer stated that his comments that he would not

In response to a question posed by Chairman Edwards, Mr.

restaurant an intensification of use inasmuch as the facility is not
increasing the number of tables or chairs.
Mr. Brion Amendt, 402 Vista Trucha, appeared before the
Planning Commission on behalf of the North Bluff Park
Homeowners Association. He addressed the Association's
concerns in Exhibit 'B" as follows: Regarding Condition No. 7,
hours of sound amplification - he suggested that the condition be
modified from 12:00 noon to dusk; regarding Conditions No. 7 and
20 - if outdoor sound amplification is allowed that the luaus and
barbecues be restricted to 10:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday
nights; regarding Condition No. 8, he had concerns regarding
announcing parking violations and he questioned the definition of
•
"emergency "; regarding Condition No. 13 - he did not object to a
small operation of a restaurant but he expressed concerns
regarding large public events; regarding Condition No. 15,
regarding Courts - that noise from Court No. 12 carries directly
into the adjacent neighborhood; and he expressed concern
regarding Condition No. 24 with respect to the closing time for the
bar, and the restaurant.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover, Mr.
Laycock concurred that the aforementioned Condition No. 24 has
been a standard condition in the subject use permit.
Mr. Bernard Pegg, 2633 Bamboo Street, appeared before the
Planning Commission. He opined that a use permit should
establish a set of conditions for a business and not as a tool for a
new owner or manager, and he set as an example the increase in
the number of lighted tennis courts. He expressed concerns
regarding Condition No. 7, the hours of outdoor sound
amplification, and Condition No. 13, allowing the restaurant to be
open to the public. He stated that he wrote a letter at the
beginning of the year regarding noise emitting from the tennis club
and he expressed concern regarding the enforcement of the

deny Use Permit No. 3071 (Amended). Mr. Pegg referred to noise
documents that he has recently studied. He stated that the sound
level of 55 dBA is no longer a good number, and that a sound
level of 40 dBA to 50 dBA is a good daytime ambient for
suburban residents. He suggested that Condition No. 34 be
modified to state that noise shall not be in excess of the adjoining
ambient conditions. He stated that the conditions of approval do
not limit the number of tennis tournaments.
Mr. King reappeared before the Planning Commission in response
to the aforementioned public comments. He stated that the doors
and windows shall be kept closed during the time live
entertainment is being provided; a stop sign has been installed at
the tennis club exit; the club is a resource for the community and
they are attempting to attract the local community to join the club;
an events management person is on the premises during special
.
activities; there is no intention to increase the number of events or
to expand the facility; there is no additional parking to expand the
restaurant and the intent of the restaurant is to attract permanent
members; and the concerns regarding the noise and sound will be
addressed by the owner.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Pomeroy, Mr.
King replied that it would not be a significant problem to
eliminate group tennis lessons from Court No. 12.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Glover regarding
Condition No. 7, Exhibit 'B ", Mr. King indicated that the existing
sound amplification hours from 12:00 noon to dusk did not allow
announcement of early tennis games, and during the winter
months, only four hours were announced during all day
tournaments. He commented that eight tennis tournaments have
been requested throughout the year.
In response to a question posed by Chairman Edwards, Mr. King

considered outside tournaments because a non - member would be

Commissioner Gifford and Mr. King addressed the restaurant's
hours of operations. Commissioner Gifford stated that she had a
concern that the public would patronize the establishment until
2:00 am. In response to a request for clarification by
Commissioner Gifford, Mr. King explained that the club closes at
11:00 pm. and there would not be a problem if the restaurant
would be closed to the public at 10:00 p.m.
There being no others desiring to appear and be heard, the public
hearing was closed at this time.
Commissioner Glover commented that Condition No. 24, Exhibit
"B ", states that the closing time for the bar and restaurant is 2:00
a.m. on weekends and national holidays, and 12:00 midnight on
weekday nights.
Commissioner Gifford addressed Exhibit "B ", Condition No. 7,
whereby she stated that she would not support the hours from 9:00
a.m. to 9:00 p.m. inasmuch as two days of sound amplification is
wearying of listening to announcements. The residents have stated
that the existing hours have not been a problem, and she indicated
that from 12:00 noon until 7:00 p.m. may be appropriate.
Regarding Condition No. 13, she suggested that the following be
added ..that the exception be not later than 10:00 p.m. whereby
Mr. Hewicker stated that it would be difficult to enforce if the
public would be required to leave at 10:00 p.m. Regarding
Condition No. 15, she would support the recommendation to
eliminate Court No. 12 inasmuch as the resident who is affected
is in the best position to inform the Commission if it would be an
issue and Court No. 9 could be a substitute Court. Regarding
Condition No. 26, language should be added recommending that
an on -site manager be present until closing.

years to encourage new members and there has not been a
.
problem.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Glover, Mr.
Hewicker explained that Condition No. 19 and Condition No. 20,
allows 2 outdoor luaus or barbecues per year so as to give the
tennis club flexibility of having the events in the future since they
have held the activities in the past.
Mr. King stated that the tennis club would like to have the

Commissioner Merrill stated that he would have trouble
supporting the motion based on amended Condition No. 8 to add
parking violations inasmuch as the tennis club could post a notice
in the parking lot similar to other parking lots or have the
automobile towed. Commissioner Pomeroy explained that the issue
is to allow an individual to move the automobile if it is blocking
traffic or parking in an illegal parking space. Commissioner
Merrill explained that if the club has scheduled an exceptionally
busy day, then the management should staff the parking lot so the
problem would not occur. The maker of the motion agreed to

Commissioner Merrill explained that residents bad expressed their
concerns regarding traffic and parking in the area.

Hewicker explained that the public would be permitted to reserve
the tennis club for wedding receptions, etc. Chairman Edwards
