Community Development Director Hogan commented on
the Specific Area Plan being established as pre-
scribed by the General Plan adopted in 1973,.and the
need for public input in developing a satisfactory
plan for the area. He further advised that any
conceptual plan adopted was merely a guideline for
more detailed planning and in no way restricted
any changes to said conceptual plan. He also
commented on the parking study presently underway
as well as the need for further studies with
respect to traffic circulation, parking and
intensity of uses.

Commissioner Balalis commented on the matter of
economics and need for a viable plan which
would not prohibit small businesses from coming
into the area.
Commissioner Heather commented on the need to
protect the marine industry and her reluctance at
this time to tamper with the existing character
of the area.
Senior Planner Talarico reviewed the four origina
concept plans presented at the previous public
hearing as well as a fifth concept plan which was
prepared as a result of the public testimony
received at that hearing.
Public hearing was opened in connection with this
matter.
Milton Bren, owner of 10 lots on 30th Street,
appeared before the Commission and requested
clarification as to the location of the proposed
29th and 30th Streets closure.
Peg Forgit, 2205 W. Balboa Boulevard, felt that
the basic problem was that of traffic circulation
need for wider streets, and adequate parking
facilities; that the proposed concept plans shoul
be scrapped; that a parking district should be
formed; that no more commercial development be
allowed i.n the area until the traffic and parking
situations are corrected; and that new owners be
required to provide required parking rather than
being allowed to hide behind the "grandfather"
clause.
Ed Martindale, owner of a marine oriented busines
on 30th Street, commented on the mix presently
allowed and felt that the real problem was parkin
not land use or zoning.
Mike Singer appeared before the Commission on
behalf of his family who own 26 lots on the corne
of 28th Street and Newport Boulevard. He advised
that the family has spent over 40 years acquiring
these lots for the purpose of a combined develop -
ment and that the lots have been cleared of old
rundown buildings. He objected to being placed i
an industrial- marine classification and a reducti

in the buildable area since it was their desire
for a retail sales /office designation with the
possible intent of constructing a restaurant,
hotel, marine sales, or some type of high profit
business. He also objected to a small parcel
being placed in a public parking area because it
would be stripped of any value for development.
Hans Dickman commented on the traffic situation i
the area.
Bob Hinch, one of the owners of 2300 Newport
Boulevard, South Coast Shipyard and Design Centel
appeared before the Commission on behalf of Bill
Blurock and 9 other partial owners of the properl
He advised of their interest in the study of the
area and offered their services in an effort to
help enhance the area and make it a better place
to work and live.
Robert Lee, Architect, with the firm of Lee and
Klages, appeared before the Commission and felt
it was difficult to evaluate any of the concept
plans proposed. He questioned the ultimate
character desired for the area and suggested tha•
one color be placed over the entire area which we
permit any of the existing uses to occur anywhere
thus providing a unique mix of commercial and /or
resi.dential rather than designating certain uses
to occur on specific lots. He also offered any
assistance the City may need in planning the are+
The concept as proposed by Mr. Lee was briefly
discussed by the Planning Commission as well as
possible ways to implement such a plan.
Milton Bren appeared before the Commission and
commented on the parking problem in the area.
Carl Akerman, property owner in the McFadden are
commented on the zoning and felt that considerat
should be given to the concept of shared parking
based on the hours of operation, since some
businesses operate only in the daytime while oth
operate only at night.
Planning Commission discussed the uniqueness of
the area, need for more information in connectio
with the parking, need for additional planning
and input from those who have offered their
services and live and work in the area, and

Request to permit the construction of a duplex it
the R -2 District that exceeds the height limit it
the 24/28 Foot Height Limitation District. The
proposal also includes a modification to permit
two open parking spaces in front of a two -.car
garage, meeting the Ordinance requirement of four
parking spaces. However, the two open parking
spaces encroach to the front property line (where
the Districting Map indicates a required 15 -foot
front yard setback along Dahlia Avenue). Further
more, a modification is required to permit a
proposed second floor balcony to encroach to
within 2'6" of the rear property line (where the
Ordinance requires a 5 foot rear yard when abut-
ting a 14 -foot wide alley).
Location: Lot 2, Block 332, Corona del Mar,
located at 400 Dahlia Avenue,
.
adjacent to the proposed park on
Bayside Drive, in Corona del Mar.

Applicant: Ken McFarland, Costa Mesa
Owner: Andrew Glassell, VII, Balboa Islam
Staff advised that since the last meeting, the .
applicant had redesigned the plan so as to confoi
with the 1.5 floor area ratio as required by the
Coastal.Commission. Photographs had also been
taken showing the roof elevations of the propose,
structure.
Public hearing was opened in connection with thi
matter.
Ken McFarland appeared before the Commission on
behalf of the owner, Andrew Glassell. He review,
the revised plans and advised that the upper uni
had been reduced from a 3- bedroom to a 2- bedroom
unit. He presented pictures of a simulated
structure indicating the height and related view
obstruction, and a letter from the engineer

true height of the permanent structure, she had
no objections. She also read a letter signed by
Theodore and Sylvia S. Harrington., owners of
property at 402 -404 Dahlia Avenue, relative to
construction of retaining walls and the instabili

design which would satisfy the needs of the soils
report and the adjacent property.

Motion was made that Planning Commission make thi
following findings:
1. That there are exceptional or extraordinary
circumstances applying to the land, building
or use referred to in the application, which
circumstances or conditions do not apply
generally to land, buildings and /or uses in
the same district, because of the steep topo
graphy of the site.
2. That the granting of the application is
necessary for the preservation..and enjoyment
substantial property rights of the applicant
since the steep terrain of the site preclude
the construction of the duplex within. the
required 24 foot height limit.

the circumstances of the particular case,
materially affect adversely the health or.
safety of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood of the property of the applican

the public welfare or injurious to property
improvements in the neighborhood. .

Bob Millar, 116 Crystal Avenue, member of the
Board of Directors of the Little Balboa Island
Property Owners Association, appeared before the
Commission and commented in opposition to.the.joi
use of the parking lot. He felt that the plan as
submitted should be approved since much planning
and study had gone into the proposed development.
Planning Commission discussed the access easement
along the bay and its possible design as to
landscaping, use and access.
Commissioner Agee voiced concern that the park ha
been eliminated, questioned the advisability of
substituting a walkway for a small neighborhood
park, and commented on his preference for the
small park concept.
Commissioner Frederickson felt there were advanta
to pricing a park at this location and concurred
with Commissioner Agee that it should be recon-
sidered.
Bob Millar appeared before the Commission and
pointed out that the reason for recommending
elimination of the park was the concern with the
improvement of the entrance to the island and
since both the park and the landscaping strip
could not be provided, the homeowners felt the
landscaping strip would be more beneficial and
aesthetically pleasing to the entrance.
Jerry King appeared before the Commission and com
mented on the preference for the landscaping buff
area as opposed to the proposed park. .
There being no others desiring to appear and be
heard., the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Agee commented on the merits of the
development, however, he failed to see the benefi
of eliminating the park and felt that some squar
footage of the landscaping should be devoted to
installation of a small park.
Commissioner Hummel felt that the development as
proposed was a good plan and opposed any plan
