William Laycock, Current Planning Administrator,
advised that after reviewing the compact parking spaces
on the plot plan, staff is recommending that the 7 feet
3 inch wide compact parking spaces be increased in
width to 7 feet 6 inches so as to conform with the
Municipal Code. Mr. Laycock explained that to create
parking spaces that are wide enough to meet the
Municipal Code, two additional standard size parking
spaces will have to be utilized to create two
additional compact parking spaces; therefore, instead
of seven compact parking spaces, there will be nine
compact parking spaces and eight standard size parking
spaces would be eliminated. Mr. Laycock requested that
Finding No. 3 be modified to read that "the proposed
number of compact car spaces constitutes 6.8 percent of
the parking requirement" instead of "5.5 percent of the
parking requirement "; and that Condition No. 9 be
added: "that the off -site parking lot shall be
restriped so that eight standard size parking spaces
shall be converted to nine compact spaces with minimum
widths of 7 feet 6 inches ". In response to a question
posed by Commissioner Turner in reference to Condition
•
No. 2 of the original Modification dated June 5, 1975,
Mr. Laycock advised that the subject Modification will
not encroach into the required 5 foot front yard
setback on West Coast Highway.

Chairman Person stated that he has a concern regarding
the bulk and mass of the proposal, and in response to
Chairman Person's question if the project could be
redesigned to a 26 foot height limit, Mr. Jeannette
replied that only the greenhouse that is designed for
the rear of the building is in excess of the 26 foot
height limit. Mr. Jeannette explained that the glass
greenhouse is an air space with access to the solar
panels and would-not impair anyone's view. In reply to
Commissioner Winburn, Mr. Jeannette stated that the
greenhouse exceeds the basic height limit; however, the
remaining areas of the project do not exceed the height
limit, and in an effort to reduce the visual impact of
the building, the applicant has proposed substantial
setbacks from the street. Chairman Person asked if the
applicant could redesign.the project from a three story
building to a two story building. Mr. Jeannette
described the layout of the project, and in summary
stated that the structure's three levels allows for an
open area that is set back from the front property
• line; however, if the structure were designed for two
levels, the open area would be eliminated, and the mass
of the structure would encroach out to the front
property line.
Mr. Leopold T. Avallone, 1367 Avenue de Cortez, Pacific
Palisades, and 1412 Ocean Front, Newport Beach,
appeared before the Planning Commission by reading a
prepared statement in opposition to the application. He
stated that the major problem affecting residents and
visitors of Newport Beach is access to parking. He
opined that the subject two lots are part of the
specific site chosen by the City for a Municipal
parking structure, and if the application is approved
and developed the property will increase in value, and
the City will pay more money to acquire the proposed
site for the parking structure. Mr. Avallone asked
that the application not be approved until the site for
the proposed parking structure has been purchased, and
that the application will be detrimental to the
residents and to the general welfare of the City.
Chairman Person asked Carol Korade, Assistant City
Attorney, if an approval by the Planning Commission
would affect the City's ability to proceed with any
• action concerning the proposed parking structure on the
subject property. Ms. Korade replied that the City has
the power to proceed with any type of condemnation
proceeding as along as it adequately compensates the
owner for the value of the property. She said that the

appraisal methodology for the condemnation generally
affects the highest and best use, and because there is
no plan in effect, the Planning Commission does not
have the authority to deny the application without
possibly subjecting the City to an inverse condemnation
claim. She explained that the only option that the
City would have at this time regarding approvals, is to
enact a moratorium pending the adoption of a Specific
Area Plan for Cannery Village.
Discussion followed between Chairman Person and Mr.
Avallone regarding the effect of the Planning
Commission action and the possibility of the increase
in property value. Mr. Hewicker commented that the
staff report reflects the status of the applicant's
proposal and the status of the City's planning for
Cannery Village and acquisition of property for a
Municipal parking lot. He confirmed Ms. Korade's
remarks that the Planning Commission must proceed with
the zoning and the General Plan that presently exists,
and for the property to be valued at the highest and
best use there could be some type of use on the land.
The public hearing was closed at this time.
Commissioner Turner made a motion to approve Use Permit
No. 3170 and the extension of Resubdivision No. 737,
subject to the findings and conditions of approval in
Exhibit "A ", including an amendment to Condition No. 2
of Use Permit No. 3170 stating that the building shall
be built so as not to exceed an average roof height of
26 feet which is permitted in the Cannery Village area.
Commissioner Turner explained that the amendment would
eliminate the greenhouse on top of the proposed
structure, and the remaining structure would be within
the height limit. Commissioner Turner agreed to
Chairman Person's request to an amendment to the motion
that the building shall be redesigned so that the
structure will not exceed 1.00 times buildable area of
the site.
Mr. Laycock pointed out that the average roof height
of the sloping roof of the main portion of the proposed
structure is 28 feet, and not 26 feet as stated by Mr.
Jeannette.
• Commissioner Turner advised that his intent is to
eliminate only the greenhouse on top of the structure.
Commissioner Koppelman asked to amend the motion to
bring the entire structure's height within the 26 foot
limitations.

The public hearing was reopened at this time to enable
Mr. Jeannette to explain the design changes that would
be necessary if the height limit would be changed. Mr.
Jeannette and Commissioner Turner discussed the various
designs that would be feasible if the height of the
structure would be lowered. Mr. Jeannette cited that
the Municipal Code provides a trade -off of allowing a
building to exceed the basic height limit if the
building is set back. In response to a question posed
by Commissioner Turner, Mr. Jeannette advised that the
building to the west of the proposed structure is a
two -story dwelling that was constructed within the
permitted height limitation.
In response to an inquiry, from Commissioner Winburn
regarding a roof limitation in the 26/35 Foot Height
Limitation District and if Mr. Jeannette would prefer
to increase the height of the structure in exchange for
a view corridor, Mr. Jeannette explained how the view
corridor depends upon the location of the project and
what the view impact would have on that location.
The public hearing was closed again at this time.
Commissioner Turner restated his motion by stating that
the building be redesigned within the basic 26 foot
height limit, and 1.00 times the buildable area. Mr.
Hewicker stated that Findings No. 4, 5, 6, and 7 and
Condition No. 2 would need to be eliminated.
Commissioner Goff stated that there is no justification
to reduce the project to 1.00 times the buildable area
when 1.5 times the buildable area is permitted in a
mixed residential - commercial use, and the proposed
project is 20% under the permitted maximum floor area
ratio, and at the same time to reduce the maximum
height of the structure when only portions of the roof
are exceeding the height limitation by only two feet
with the exception of the greenhouse. Commissioner Goff
made a substitute motion to approve Use Permit No. 3170
and Resubdivision No. 737 (Extended) , subject to the
findings and conditions in Exhibit "A ", with the
elimination of the greenhouse from the plans.
The public hearing was reopened at this time. In
response to Chairman Person, Mr. Jeannette stated that
• the floor area ratio would not be affected by the
deletion of the greenhouse. He advised Commissioner
Winburn that the 1.00 times the buildable area would
reduce the floor area by approximately 800 square feet
to 1,000 square feet.

Substitute motion to approve Use Permit No. 3170 and Resubdivision

that his desire would be to require 1.00 times the

elimination of the greenhouse. He opined that there is
public knowledge that the intensity of Cannery Village

Ms. Schauer asked what constitutes incidental seating
in a take -out restaurant. Mr. Laycock replied that
incidental seating would allow a few customers to eat
or drink in a facility, but the majority of the
customers of a take -out restaurant would remove the food
or beverages from the building for consumption.
Mr. John Shea, 2214 West Ocean Front, appeared before
the Planning Commission, expressing his concerns

the combination of the sale of alcoholic beverages and
live entertainment or only alcoholic beverages, and
that he would not support the restriction of amplified
music. Commissioner Goff recommended amendments to the

discretionary situations to the premises ", and "limit

James Hewicker, Planning Director, stated that the
subject proposal involves nine lots that are located
downhill from Marguerite Avenue. He said that the
dwellings that would be affected by the height are on
the lower two tiers of the tract, and that one of the
four floor plans includes a loft. Mr. Hewicker
commented that because the attached units are side by
side and are located uphill to a downhill slope this is
creating an architectural problem to the building. He

subject , and there is a question of where the viewer
is situated to what the viewer is viewing. Mr.
Hewicker advised Chairman Person that an Ordinance
established the view plane from Harbor View Hills

out that.the applicant has designed the project wherein
there is a substantial drop off from Marguerite Avenue.

undesirable or abrupt scale relationships between
the nine structures in questions, and the existing
developments or public spaces. The approved tract
map and precise grading plan required the site to

existing views of its adjoining Harbor view Hills
and Jasmine Creek residences. The nine structures
included in this application are located below and
well back from Marguerite Avenue and Harbor View
Drive.
6. The requested height change for the subject nine
lots is not an attempt to create added square
