(PA2003 -074) 514 W. Balboa Boulevard Amendment to Use Permit No. 2002 -014 to authorize the sale of alcoholic beverages (Type 41: beer and wine) for on -site consumption pursuant to the Alcoholic Beverage Outlet (ABO) Ordinance and to permit the increase in seating at an existing restaurant. The request includes a waiver of off - street parking requirements. APPLICANT: Brian and Lisa Matejka 514 W. Balboa Boulevard Newport Beach, CA 92661 ISSUE: Should the Planning Commission approve an Amendment to Use Permit No. 2002 -014 to authorize the sale of beer and wine for on -site consumption at an existing restaurant pursuant to the Alcoholic Beverage Outlet (ABO) Ordinance, to permit the increase in seating from 20 to 38 seats and to waive the off - street parking requirements? RECOMMENDATION: Hold a public hearing and approve an amendment to Use Permit No. 2002 -014 (PA2003 -074) for the sale of alcohol and not for the increase in seating subject to the findings and conditions of approval within the draft resolution for project approval (Exhibit No. 1). VICINITY MAP 514 W. Balboa Boulevard Amendment to Use Permit No. 2002 -014 (PA2003 -074) Current Development: Restaurant use on the street level with two residential units on the second -story level To the north: Residential uses across an alley To the east: Residential uses To the south: Residential uses across Balboa Boulevard To the west: Retail and service commercial uses with residential units located on the second- story level DISCUSSION: Site/Project Overview & Background: The site is an existing two -story building with two residential units on the second floor, and a small restaurant located on the first floor. The only off - street parking provided on Abbondanza Pizza Co.(PA2003 -074) May 8, 2003 Page 2 of 8 the site consists of two enclosed garages that are accessed from the alley. Use Permit No. 915 was approved in 1966 that allowed the construction of two residential units over the commercial space with a condition requiring three enclosed garages. The restaurant use was originally approved in 1995 under Specialty Food Service No. 26, and was operated at a bakery/deli with a limit of 20 seats (14 seats on the interior and 6 seats in the patio area. As a result of a change of ownership in 2002, an inspection by the Orange County Health Department noted that one of the garages was being used for storage purposes. In order to legalize the storage use and removal of the parking space, it was necessary for the owner to apply for a use permit to allow a parking waiver and to authorize the increase in the expansion of the commercial area (increase in Floor Area Ratio). On July 18, 2002, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 1564 approving Use Permit No. 2002 -014 for the applicant's request. Under that action, it was stipulated that one of the remaining parking spaces is dedicated to the restaurant and one space dedicated to the residential use of the property. The applicant is requesting that the use permit be amended to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages (Type 41: beer and wine) for on -site consumption, and to permit the increase in seating from 20 seats to 38 seats. The request for the increase in seating requires a waiver of off- street parking requirements. Analysis: Alcoholic Beverage Outlet Ordinance The Type 41 (On -Sale Beer and Wine) alcoholic beverage license permits the on -site consumption of alcoholic beverages in conjunction with eating places. In accordance with Section 20.89.030A of the Alcoholic Beverage Outlet (ABO) Ordinance, a new use permit is required for a new Type 41 license. The ABO requires the Planning Commission to consider the following: 1. Whether the use serves public convenience or necessity. 2. The crime rate in the reporting district and adjacent reporting districts as compared to other areas in the City. 3. The number of alcohol licenses per capita in the reporting district and in adjacent reporting districts as compared to the countywide average. 4. The numbers of alcohol - related calls for service, crimes or arrests in the reporting district and in adjacent reporting districts. 5. The proximity of the alcoholic beverage outlet to residential districts, day care centers, park and recreation facilities, places of religious assembly, and schools. Public Convenience or Necessity. The service of alcoholic beverages in conjunction with a full service restaurant is typical and is expected by the public. Approval of the sale of alcohol will serve the public's convenience as opposed to the public necessity. Abbondanza Pizza Go.(PA2003 -074) May 8, 2003 Page 3 of 8 Crime Rate. Citywide, there were 6,979 crimes reported during calendar year 2002, of which 3,092 were Part One Crimes (serious offenses). The remaining 3,887 were Part Two Crimes that include alcohol related arrests. The project site is located within Police Reporting District No. 12, and the part one crime rate for the RD, two adjacent RD's, City, California and National averages are shown in the following table for comparison. RD No 12: 6725.66 CitV Average: 4086.6 RD No. 11: 2534.40 1 California: 3902.9 RD No. 13: 5637.66 1 National: 4160.5 During 2002, the number of Part One Crimes in RD No. 12 was 114 and the number of Part Two Crimes was 137. Adjacent Reporting Districts are Nos. 11 and 13.: RD No. 11 had 35 Part One and 71 Part Two Crimes; and RD No. 13 had 103 Part One and 145 Part Two Crimes. A map of the reporting districts is attached to the Police Report (Exhibit No. 4). The number of total crimes reporting within the RD of the subject project site is higher than the two adjacent RD's. The 251 total crimes are approximately 36.7% higher than the average crimes reported by reporting district. The Police Department notes that the actual amount of crimes in the area is not considered significant and they do not anticipate any increase in the crime rate due to the change in license type and the Police Department has no serious objections to the proposed operation. Over Concentration. There are 28 active alcoholic beverage licenses in police Reporting District No. 12. The request will result in one additional ABC license. Many of the existing licenses are for eating and drinking establishments, and the increase in one additional license for the on -site consumption of beer and wine in conjunction with a restaurant is not considered to be an over concentration of alcoholic beverage licenses in the area. Alcohol - Related Crimes. The Police Department has provided statistics for driving under the influence and plain drunk arrests. There were 12 driving under the influence arrests. and 37 plain drunk arrests within RD No. 12 (totaling 49 DUI /Drunk arrests) during this same period as compared to 1,608 for the entire City. This RD amounts to 2.8% of the DUI/Drunk arrests made in the City. RD No. 11 had 10 DUI/Drunk arrests and RD No. 13 had 57 DUI /Drunk arrests. The rate within RD No. 12 is lower than the citywide average and the adjacent RD No. 13; but higher than the adjacent RD No. 11. The DUI /Drunk arrest rate within the RD is not considered to be significantly high, and the Police Department does not believe that the proposed use will generate a significant number of alcohol - related incidents. Adiacent Uses. The site is located within the mid - Balboa Peninsula area and is adjacent to residential uses. The Police Department does not object to the proposed hours of operation, which are to close at 10:00 pm Thursday through Sunday, and 9:00 pm Monday through Wednesday. No schools, playgrounds or other similar sensitive uses are adjacent or within close proximity to the site. Abbondanza Pizza Co. (PA2003 -074) May 8, 2003 Page 4 of 8 Conclusion: The Police Department has reviewed the Use Permit application and has determined that no additional conditions related to design and security is required and has no objections to the request. The Police Department does recommend 4 standard conditions related to the sale and consumption of alcohol to ensure compatibility of the use with its environs. These conditions are routinely required of alcoholic beverage outlets and are contained within the draft resolution for project approval. Upon project approval, the Police Department will transmit the conditions of approval related to the service of alcohol to the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) consistent with this Use Permit, Parking WaiverlSeating Applicant proposes to modify the interior of the restaurant by removing the beverage cooler and dispenser and adding an additional table and counter seating, and proposes to add two tables in the patio area, resulting in a total of 38 seats. The current Use Permit restricts the total seating to 20. (Note: plans submitted by the applicant indicate that 28 seats are currently existing. According to the applicant, he was not notified by the previous owner or leasing agent that the business was restricted to 20 seats and he purchased the business with the 28 seats). The change in the number of seats from the existing 20 to 38 changes the classification of the restaurant to full service high turnover. The parking regulations of the Zoning Code provides that full service, small - scale restaurants shall provide one parking space for every three seats, resulting in a parking requirement of 7 spaces for the existing 20 seats. The parking requirement for a full service high turnover restaurant is within a range of one space per 30 square feet to one space per 50 square feet of net public area. There is approximately 300 square feet of interior space that is used for public dining area, and 182 square feet on the patio, for a total of 482 square feet of net public area. Using a mid -range standard of 1 space per 40 square feet of net public area, the restaurant would require 13 parking spaces, which is six spaces more than the current requirement, and 11 more than the existing number of spaces (as noted above, the property has two enclosed garages). In order to grant the parking waiver, Zoning Code Section 20.66.100(A) permits the Planning Commission to modify or waive the number of off - street parking if one or more are met: A municipal parking facility is so located as to be useful in connection with the proposed use or uses on the site. No municipal parking lot is located in the immediate vicinity of the restaurant, however, on- street parking is provided along Balboa Boulevard, including the metered parking located along the median island. 2. The site is subject to two or more uses and the maximum parking requirements for such uses do not occur simultaneously. Abbondanza Pizza Co.(PA2003 -074) May 8, 2003 Page 5 of 8 Even though the site consists of the restaurant on the ground floor and the two residential units above, no off - street parking, other than the two enclosed garages, is provided, and simultaneous use occurs. This provision does not apply to this situation. 3. A parking management plan for the site has been approved by the Planning Commission pursuant to Section 20,66.100(B). A parking management plan has not been approved for the project site. 4. The Planning Commission makes the following findings: a. The parking demand will be less than the requirement in Section 20.66.030, b. The probable long -term occupancy of the building or structure, based on its design, will not generate additional parking demand. As noted above, the increase in seating will generate an increase in parking required for the business by an additional 6 spaces (7 spaces currently required; 13 spaces required for the proposed increase in 18 seats). The applicant has submitted documentation to justify the increase in seating relative to parking on the basis that the restaurant is designed to serve the locals of the mid - Balboa area, who will walk or bike to the establishment, and the weekend lunch service will accommodate the beach - going public who will already be parked in the area, thereby not creating additional parking demand. A related issue to the increase in seating is the need for a building permit, As proposed, the applicant does not intend to change the business, and the only interior modifications will be the removal of a drink cooler and soda dispenser in the dining room. However, increasing the number of seats will result in more meals being prepared, and could result in the need for a larger grease interceptor. If determined by the Building Department that a larger grease interceptor is required, the applicant should be aware that the installation cost may be high or prohibitive. Hours of Operation Use Permit No. 2002 -014 does not include a restriction on hours of operation. However, Specialty Food Service No. 26 did establish hours of operation from 7:00 am to midnight, seven days per week. Applicant proposes to have dinner service seven days a week, with lunch service only on Saturdays and Sundays, and proposes the following hours of operation: Monday through Wednesday - 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm Thursday through Friday - 4:00 pm to 10:00 pm Saturday and Sunday - 11:00 am to 10:00 pm Abbondanza Pizza Co. (PA2003 -074) May 8, 2003 Page 6 of 8 The Police Department has reviewed the requested hours of operation and has no objections to those proposed by the applicant. Staff believes the hours are reasonable, and a condition has been included in the draft Resolution stipulating the foregoing hours. Entertainment The applicant states that there will be no live entertainment and/or dancing. Pre- recorded background music is proposed. However, given the close proximity of the residential units over the commercial uses on site and to the east, as well as the residential to the west, staff recommends that recorded music or use of audio equipment not be permitted in the patio area and a condition has been included in the draft Resolution. Environmental Review: This project has been reviewed, and it has been determined that it is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act under Class 1 (Existing Structures). This exemption allows for the operation, repair, maintenance and minor alteration of existing buildings. Public Notice: Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot with the agenda, mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the property and posted at the site a minimum of 10 days in advance of this hearing consistent with the Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared upon the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the city website. CONCLUSION: The proposed sale of beer and wine in conjunction with the restaurant is reasonable and staff believes that the proposed alcoholic beverage outlet will not prove detrimental to the community and that all findings for the approval of a Use Permit can be made. With respect to the request for increased seating, staff believes that the evidence submitted does not support the findings for a parking waiver. Therefore, staff is recommending that the request with respect to the ABO be approved, but that the portion requesting an increase in seating be denied. Alternatives: Should the Planning Commission believe that the project may be detrimental to the community, the Commission can suggest further conditions to mitigate specific concerns related to the service of alcohol or deny the request. The Planning Commission can also determine, after taking public testimony and any additional evidence that the parking waiver is acceptable and is justified in order to Abbondanza Pizza Co. (PA2003 -074) May 6, 2003 Page 7 of 8 permit the additional requested seating, in which case it would be appropriate to adopt a Resolution with findings for approval of the parking waiver. Staff has included an alternate Resolution that includes findings for approval of both the ABO and seating increase /parking waiver (included as Attachment No. 2). Submitted by: PATRICIA L.

PLAN OF INTENT SUMMARY OVERVIEW: The intent of the new owners of the Italian/Pizza business on 514 W. Balboa Blvd. (formerly Cafe Italiano) is to create a full- service,- casual restaurant business with reasonable pricing for both locals and tourists. Restaurant Business will serve a full - service pizza/pasta dinner menu to the locals of the Mid - Balboa area, and a limited - service weekend lunch menu to serve the tourists of Newport Beach. Owners are requesting a change in the Conditional Use Permit that will allow them to serve more guests (from 20 guests to 38 guests). Owners are also seeking a Beer & Wine license, Type #41, Beer & Wine Eating place, with City and County authorities. This site has been a location of 4 failed Italian/Pizza businesses, and the new owners hope to "right the course ". They look forward to providing three services to the City of Newport Beach: 1) To provide a food service establishment to the locals and tourists of Newport Beach; 2) To provide a growing tax base to the City of Newport Beach; 3) To provide employment opportunities for the locals of Newport Beach. They look forward to your consideration. SPECIFICS: ➢ ADDRESS: 514 W.

LETTER OF BUSINESS INTENT The intent of the new owners of the Italian/Pizza business on 514 W. Balboa Blvd. (formerly Cafd Italiano) is to create a full- service, casual restaurant business with reasonable pricing for both locals and tourists. The new owners (Brian & Lisa Matejka) were looking to start their Italian/Pizza restaurant concept in an Orange County beach community, and viewed sites over the last year from Huntington Beach to San Clemente. They were excited to find a location that suited their needs in Balboa, as they had viewed Newport Beach as the optimal city to start this Italian Restaurant. They have a good understanding of the city, as they have previously lived in and got married in Newport Beach. In addition, Brian's parents owned a restaurant business in Newport Beach in the 1970's, so they are excited to carry on the tradition (See Page 9 — About the Owners). The name of the new business is Abbondanza Pizza Bistro. Abbondanza means "abbundant" in Italian. As you may imagine, the owners are not only bringing in a new name, but an improved menu and a higher level of service. This restaurant concept is not an overnight initiative, but a concept that the owners have been developing over the past three years. Their goal is to serve abbundant food and flavor to the locals of Mid - Balboa. The new menu will include gourmet pizzas, home -style pastas, creative sandwiches, and delicious salads. The Pizza crusts will feature New York Thick Crust, . Chicago Deep Dish and California "Balboa" Thin Crust. The restaurant atmosphere will include representation of all three of these cities from the 1940's and 1950's, with black and white historical pictures and antiques. Music such as Italian, Swing, Jazz, and Vocals (Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, etc.) from the 40's and 50's era, will bring a warm casual atmosphere and offer Balboa locals and tourists of all ages a great place to dine. While the new owners intend to dedicate the bulk of their menu, design, and efforts to establishing a dinner business, they also intend to serve a limited weekend lunch menu to serve tourists that are visiting nearby 6"' Street Beach. These tourists would already be parking on Balboa Blvd. to visit the beach, but may be looking for the convenience of a local business to provide food (sandwiches, salads, slices of pizza and sodas) for dine -in or take -out. The bulk of the business will be serving dinner meals to the locals of Mid - Balboa. The new owners have polled nearby consumers, and they express excitement over walking or biking to this location rather than having to drive to restaurants at Balboa Village, Balboa Island, or Newport Pier locations. Abbondanza Pizza Bistro will provide locals an environment that they can be proud to take their family and friends. -2- a5 III. CHANGE TO CONDITIONAL PERMIT SUMMARY ➢ The intent of the new owners for the business on 514 W. Balboa Blvd. is to create a full- service, casual Pizza/Italian restaurant with reasonable pricing. This site is the only restaurant (except for a small coffee house) located between Balboa Village and Newport Pier, and thus serves locals and tourists of the Mid - Balboa area. ➢ This business site has been under the umbrella of Cafd Italiano (dba and business name) over the last four owners, and none of the past owners have established a solid reputation of consistently serving the locals and tourists. Besides good food, service, and consistent hours of operation, guests have also repeatedly requested more convenient seating, and beer and wine offered with the pizza and pasta menu. Because of the bad service reputation, the extreme seating limitations, and the economics of operating without beer and wine sales, none of the past four businesses have survived. ➢ The Conditional Use Permit Application for Abbondanza Pizza Bistro seeks to amend Specialty Food Service Permit 426. The permit is somewhat outdated and irrelevant as it was approved in 1995 for a food establishment that began as a Bakery & Deli serving mostly breakfast and lunch meals, but has. since turned into an Italian/Pizza concept serving mostly dinner meals. ➢ This restaurant has had a difficult time establishing a large customer base because of the extreme seating limitations set forth in the 1995 Specialty Food Service Permit 426. New owners seek to establish seating increase allowance from the current 20 to proposed 38 customers. During the purchase process the new owners were never informed of the "Notifications of Conditions" of the Specialty Food Service Permit. They were instead improperly led to believe that seating was already established to accommodate 28+ guests. If the new owners were informed of the limited seating capacity of only 20 seats at this location, they would have never purchased this business — as they wanted to open a full- service dining establishment in Balboa. ➢ New owner is asking for a Conditional Use Permit to serve Beer and Wine with the Gourmet Pizza, Pasta and Salad menu. The customer base that has been polled specifically and overwhelmingly request beer and wine to be served along with the Pizza and Pasta Menu. The new owners intend to serve Beer & Wine in both the Interior Dining Room and the Outside Covered Patio locations (See Page 6 — Outside Patio Service). Owner has already begun the appropriate application process for a Type #41 (Beer & Wine Eating Place) license with the Orange County Alcoholic Beverage Commission. -3- 0 IV: REQUEST TO AMMEND SPECIALTY FOOD SERVICE PERMIT #26 OVERVIEW: The Conditional Use Permit Application for Abbondanza Pizza Bistro seeks to amend Specialty Food Service Permit #26. The permit is somewhat outdated and irrelevant as it was approved in 1995 for a food establishment that began as a Bakery & Deli serving mostly breakfast and lunch meals, but has since turned into an Italian/Pizza concept serving mostly dinner meals. While no changes are needed on Item #s: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, & 9- 13, the new owner requests amendments and/or clarifications to Item #s: 2, 7 & 8. ITEM #2 - ALLOWED SEATING: New owner seeks to establish seating increase allowance from the current 20 seats to proposed 38 seats. New owners feel that the business is able to legally (occupant load) seat a total of 38 guests (21f inside and 12 outside). Current seating arrangements have forced past owners to pursue delivery business, as the current permit does not accommodate enough service and sales within the restaurant. Delivery Service brings added labor costs and insurance liabilities that make the business economics much more difficult than to instead focus on serving dine -in and take =out consumers. The following . should be noted regarding seating allowance for this full- service restaurant space: 1) This is the only restaurant (besides a small coffee house) located between the Newport Pier and Balboa Village. It allows the locals of the Mid - Balboa area an attractive alternative to fighting the crowds and parking at restaurants located in these areas. 2) It has been noted by prior ownership and confirmed by current owner that 90% of the guests are locals, and therefore will not cause parking problems (see Attachment 5 - Guest List). Locals are defined as those customers that are either local owners, local renters, or renters of Mid - Balboa vacation homes. 3) This restaurant started as a Bakery/Deli serving mostly breakfast and lunch meals, and therefore may have needed more parking spaces to serve day customers. It has since turned into a Pizza/Italian restaurant serving mostly dinner customers. There is plenty of parking availability during evening hours. 4) The restaurant has one public bathroom and has used the second bathroom as a "mop /utility room ". According to the Building Dept. this is possibly the current restriction of only 20 guests as building code will only allow 20 seats if one public bathroom is provided. New owner will convert "mop room" to a men's bathroom with only cosmetic modifications needed. Women's bathroom already in place. 5) During the purchase process, new owners were improperly led to believe that seating was established to accommodate 28+ guests. See Item #7 — Notification of Conditions. (continued) -4- �,1 IV: REQUEST TO AMMEND SPECIALTY FOOD SERVICE PERMIT #26 ITEM #2 — ALLOWED SEATING: (continued) 6) There are approximately 175 parking spaces available to visitors of this beach and commercial area as follows: • (72) Parking Meter Spaces on Island between 7t' St. & Medina • (14) "30- Minutes Only" Spaces in front of the Mid - Balboa Commercial Zone • (60) Non - Metered Parking Spaces on Balboa Blvd. curbs between 7`h St. & Medina, including 4 Parking Spaces directly in front of this restaurant. • (30) Side Street Parking Spaces on 6`i' St. & Island. 7) The occupant load (as defined by the Building Dept.) allows one person per 15 square fee of the Public Area. Therefore, this restaurant should be allowed seating for 38 guests. The following are the measurements of the Interior Dining (Public) Area and Outside Patio (Public) Area: Interior Dining Area: 391 Square Feet (391/15 = 26 guests) Exterior Patio Area: 182 Square Feet (180/15 =12 guests) Total: 38 Guests ITEM #7 — NOTIFICATIONS OF CONDITIONS: New owners were misled on the Notifications of the Conditions of this permit, which could greatly effect the original intention to purchase, create, and operate a full- service dining establishment. Item #7 states that `future owners shall be notified of the conditions of this approval by either the current owner or leasing company ". The new owner was never notified of this specialty food service permit by either the prior owner, Nancy Nelson, or the leasing company. Of most concern to the new owners are the seating arrangements specified. Because the new owners were never forwarded this document, they were led to believe that the business was already approved to seat 28+ guests. Please see Attachment #3 (Brokers Listing). ITEM #8 — ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES: New owner is asking for a Conditional Use Permit to serve Beer and Wine with the Gourmet Pizza, Pasta, and Salad menu. The customer base that has been polled specifically and overwhelmingly request for beer and wine to be served along with the Pizza and Pasta Menu. Owners request to serve Beer & Wine in both the Interior Dining Room and Outside Covered Patio locations. Owner has begun the appropriate application process for a Type #41 (Beer & Wine Eating Place) license with the County and City. ITEMS #1, 3, 4, 5, 6, & 9 -13: Confirmation of no changes needed to Items #1, 3, 4, 6,and 9 -13 as written in Permit. -5- ,' V: OUTSIDE PATIO SERVICE — Food, Beer & Wine This page is to confirm intent for the new owners to serve food, beer & wine on the outside covered patio of this restaurant location. The new owners have researched the "Sidewalk Cafe Standards and Procedures (Policy L -21 attached) and have learned that the site meets all the requirements of the Outside Dining Area including as follows: • SIDEWALK SPACE: The standards and procedures apply to the use of sidewalk space. This restaurant site has a self - contained covered patio measures 26' Long by 7' Wide and does not encroach upon the public sidewalk in any way (furniture, newspaper vending machines, umbrellas, etc). • HORIZONTAL CLEARANCE: The site meets the plan of a clear, continuos obstruction -free path of 6' in width outside of the outdoor dining area. • BARRIERS: Establishments that serve alcoholic beverages in the outdoor dining area shall provide a physical barrier that meets the requirements of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.

BALBOA BLVD. 1964 -1994 - COMMERCIAL BUSINESS: This site was built in 1964 with a Land Use of 129 Com, Stores & Residential. It is located on East Newport, Block 3, Lot 15, with Parcel Number 048 - 071 -10, and Census Tract 628.00. It was originally established as a Commercial Site with two units. Two small residential units were approved on July 7, 1966 (Permit #915) to be added above the 2 commercial stores below. At some point, the 2 commercial units were converted into one larger commercial unit. 1995 - COMMERCIAL-BAKERY/DELI: In 1995, the commercial business at 514 W. Balboa Blvd. was officially approved for food service with Specialty Food Service Application #26. Professional restaurant equipment was installed including a Clay Oven, 4 -Burner Stove, Steam Table, Sink/Dishwasher, Hood System, and Icemaker. This business began as a bakery /cafd serving mostly breakfast and lunch meals. 1997 -2002 - CAFE ITALIANO: This commercial establishment has since become an Italian/Pizza Restaurant with varying menus, prices, hours of operation and service. All of the Italian Restaurants have been under the dba and signage of Cafe Italiano. Additions and improvements to the site over the years have included commercial refrigerators and freezers, a dough - mixer, counter appliances, steel storage shelves, and improvements to the interior atmosphere. The last 2 owners have worked hard to bring the kitchen up to legal code. Initiatives by Robert Mortensen and Tamara Watt in 2001 included an interior remodel, grease -trap installation, and approved upgraded electrical plans. Initiatives by Nancy Nelson included approved upgraded Fire Suppression plans and bringing the Class 2 Hood up to code. In addition, she received Use Permit No. 2002 -014 at a July 18, 2002 meeting - which converted a garage space into an approved Food Storage Area (See Attachment #4 — Conditional Use Permit #2002 -014). ABBONDANZA PIZZA BISTRO: The new owners are Brian and Lisa Matejka as a General Partnership. They took over on 12/28/2002 with a dba of Abbondanza Pizza Company. Abbondanza Pizza Bistro will be the location/signage name. Abbondanza means "abbundant" in Italian. Their intent for purchasing the business is to establish a full- service restaurant in a fun atmosphere with reasonable prices catering to the locals and tourists of Mid - Balboa. Please see Page 2 (Letter of Business Intent) for further information on the operation of this business. -7- 3� VII: SITE ECONOMICS 514 W. BALBOA BLVD. OVERVIEW: This site has a history of failed and unprofitable businesses. It has changed ownership 5 times in the last 8 years with an average ownership span of only 1 year and 8 months. This restaurant began as a bakery caf6 mostly serving breakfast and lunch meals, and thus may have begun the limited seating requirement to only 20 customers. The business has since changed to an Italian Pizza and Pasta concept with the last 4 owners offering varying menus, hours, and prices. The previous owner only ran the restaurant for 10 months, made limited profits in the Summer, and began to lose money in the Winter months (See Attachment #6 - Restaurant Operating Budgets). While the local residents desperately want this location to succeed, they are impatiently waiting for a business to get its act together. The local consumer base of the Mid - Balboa area desire a full- service restaurant with consistent hours, quality food, good service, and reasonable prices. The main reason that locals are interested in this location, is because it offers them a convenient place for dining out. It allows these locals an attractive alternative to fighting the traffic, crowds, and parking at the restaurants in the Balboa Village, Balboa Island, and Newport Pier locations. However, as seating is limited to only 20 guests, locals do not feel it is conducive to bring their visiting friends and relatives. In addition, a Beer & Wine license is desperately needed to improve the economics of operating this restaurant. RECENT ECONOMICS: The new owners have taken over as of 12/28/2002, and are determined to make this a successful business. They want this location to be an asset to the city of Newport Beach, its local residents and tourists. The turnaround strategy of this business has already been much more difficult than expected or planned for. The combination of an extremely tough Winter season in Balboa, along with a terrible reputation of inconsistency at the restaurant - has left them with tough financial conditions to overcome from the beginning. While it was already their necessary intention to evolve and improve the menu, service, atmosphere, and food quality — it immediately became an absolute necessity to close the business after only three weeks of operation. While the store is currently losing $70 each day that it is closed, the store was losing over $100 each day it was open. This is because of the necessary restaurant operating costs of labor, utilities, food and packaging, along with servicing only a small consumer base. Sadly, this current state of affairs forced them to lay -off the staff of 3 employees. All prior employees are local Newport residents and recent graduates of Newport Harbor High. On the positive side, they look forward to improving the menu, food, service, seating, and atmosphere with goals of re- opening with anew menu in Spring. They also hope to rehire the prior staff members noted above. -8- �k PART VIII: ABOUT THE OWNERS BRIAN & LISA MATEJKA: Brian and Lisa Matejka are upstanding citizens of Orange County.

The Planning Department determined in this case that the proposal would not be detrimental to persons, property or improvements in the neighborhood and that the specialty food services permit as approved would be consistent with the legislative intent of Title 20 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, and made the following findings: That the proposed specialty food service is retail in nature, serving mainly persons residing or worldng in the neighborhood, maintains a gross floor area of 2,000 sq.ft. or less, and is not necessarily a destination point. It is anticipated that the proposed use will have parldng demand characteristics similar to a retail use. 2. That the proposed development is consistent with the Land Use Element of the General Plan and the Local Coastal Program, and is compatible with the surrounding land uses. 3. That the approval of Specialty Food Service Permit No. 26 will not, under the circumstances of this case, be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, and general welfare of the city.

BALBOA BOULEVARD THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS, RESOLVES AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. An application was filed by Ms. Nancy Nelson with respect to property located at 514 W Balboa Boulevard, and legally described as Lot 15 of East Newport, Block 3, requesting approval of Use Permit No. 2002 -014 that would authorize the conversion of an enclosed parking space to storage area and a waiver of the off - street parking requirements associated with losing 1 space as a result of the conversion. Section 2. A public hearing was held on July 18, 2002 in the City Hall Council Chambers, 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California. A notice of the time, place and purpose of the aforesaid meeting was given. Evidence, both written. and oral, was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission at this meeting. Section 3. The Planning Commission finds as follows: 1. The location for the proposed project requiring this use permit, and the proposed conditions under which it would be operated or maintained, is consistent with the General Plan and the purpose of the RSC -R District in which the site is located; will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, or welfare of persons residing or working in or adjacent to the neighborhood of such use; and will not be detrimental to the properties or improvements in the vicinity or to the general welfare of the city. The use permit pertains to the conversion of an enclosed parking space to storage area and a waiver of the off - street parking requirements associated with losing 1 space as a result of the conversion. The loss of an additional space will not significantly worsen the existing situation in the surrounding community where there is a lack of adequate parking spaces. The area to be converted is to be used for storage and not additional net public area. The operational characteristics of the restaurant are such that a majority of the business' customers come from the surrounding community who do not drive to the restaurant. The request will not be detrimental to the area because the parking space has been used for storage for several years prior without complaint. 2. The mix of existing and approved development within the statistical area in which the project is proposed does not exceed the base development allocation established for that statistical area. The statistical area in which the project is proposed does not contain any undeveloped or underdeveloped properties of sufficient size which, if developed within the land use intensities established by the Land Use Element of the General Plan. would cause the base development allocation for that statistical area to be exceeded. City of Newport Beach Planning Commission Resolution No. — PaQe 2 of 3 3. The operational characteristics of the converted storage area are the reason for granting the parking waiver. The converted space will not be used for additional net public area that potentially could result in additional vehicle trips to and from the site. The parking demand for such space, as utilized, will be-less than the requirement as prescribed by the Zoning Code. The probable long- term occupancy of the project will not generate additional parking demand. Any change in the operational characteristics, particularly any change in the use of the storage that would allow it to become additional seating, would require an amendment to the Use Permit, reviewed by the Planning Commission, with the parking waiver reconsidered. 4. The project. has been reviewed,. and it qualifies for a categorical exemption pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act under Class 1 (Existing Facilities). Section 4. Based on the aforementioned findings, the Planning Commission approves Use Permit No. 2002 -014, subject to the conditions set forth in Exhibit "A ", the plans dated July 18, 2002. Section 5. This action shall become final and effective fourteen days after the adoption of this Resolution unless within such time an appeal is filed with the City Clerk or this action is called for review by the City Council in accordance with the provisions of Title 20, Planning and Zoning, of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.

Use Permit No. 2002 -016 shall expire unless exercised. within 24 months from the date of approval as specified in Section 20.91.050 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, unless an extension is otherwise granted. 3. Any change in the operational characteristics, particularly any change in the use of the storage area that would allow it to become net public area, would require an amendment to the Use Permit, reviewed by the Planning Commission, with the parking waiver reconsidered. 4. The applicant is required to obtain all applicable permits from the City Building and Fire Departments as well as the Orange County Health Department. The construction plans must comply with the most recent, City- adopted version of the California Building Code.

Balboa Blvd. Kim Torres (949) 675 -1457 FaX (949) 675-1452 i Rr 512 1/2 West Balboa Blvd., Balboa, CA 92661 Newport Beach Planning Commission: I am the current co -owner of Jazzz Hair Salon at 512 W. Balboa Blvd. I have been in business here for 13 Years and have seen many businesses come and go next door at 514 W. Balboa Blvd. I remember that it started as a full - service bakery/deli serving mostly breakfast and lunch meals and thus possibly the limit of only 20 seats. Over the last 5 years there have been a few different Italian & Pizza concepts with varying menus and prices. None of the past owners have been able to consistently make a profit, partially due to the limited seating availability. As an owner of a business in Mid - Balboa, I have never really witnessed parking problems. While it is busier in the summer, this area still attracts much less traffic than Newport Pier and Balboa Village. My observance of this particular business, is that it attracts mostly foot traffic from customers that walk over from nearby households. It receives some business from the tourists that are already parking to visit the beach. In addition, my customers like to frequent the business before or after their hair alterations to "kill 2 birds with one stone ". These are customers that are already parked for salon service and just running in to grab a sandwich. I agree with the new owners that they should be granted more seating, based on the occupant load. It is my humble opinion that this business should not be limited on seating based on an unfound notion of unavailable parking. Sincerely, Kim Torres Co- Owner, Jazzz Hair Salon ra ATTACHMENT #8 - CONFIRMATION OF PARKING February 12, 2003 To: City of Newport Beach Attn: Planning Commission RE: Parking Availability — 514 W. Balboa Blvd. To Whom It May Concern: I was the owner of Cafe Itahano at 514 W. Balboa Blvd. from March to December of 2002. During the time that I owned the business, the City was in the process of conducting all of the sewer and road construction directly in front of our business. One would think that this would cause parking challenges to our business, especially during the busier summer months, however this was not really the case. While the construction did bring some inconveniences, we had never heard from our guests that they had problems finding a parking spot. The main reasons that we never had challenges with parking are as follows: 1) We noticed that 80 %6 to 90% of our customers were locals. Most of these guests are walking or biking to the restaurant. 2) For guests that were driving, they were either: ■ picking up an order for take -home ■ able to easily find a parking spot in the 200 some places available on both street curbs, the center Island, or on side streets already parking to go to 6'h Street Beach, and because of our location were able to provide a convenient food and beverage service. As a past owner, I believe that a larger seating allowance would improve the . economics of running this restaurant. A seating limitation to only 20 seats based on an unfound parking shortage should not be imposed against this business. It should be granted the same seating allowances allowed to the other restaurants of the Balboa and Newport areas, to help the new owners pursue some semblance of profitability. Please feel free to call me with any questions pertaining to this subject. Sincerely, Nancy Nelson Sausalito, CA (415) 331 -3960 6� EXHIBIT 4 POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT 64 City of Newport Beach Police Department Memorandum April 10, 2003 TO: Bill Cunningham, Staff Planner FROM: CSO Susan Seviane SUBJECT: Abbondanza Pizza Co. UP2003 -013 (PA2003 -074) At your request our office has reviewed the project request for Abbondanza Pizza, located at 514 W. Balboa Blvd., Newport Beach. The restaurant is currently operating under a "Specialty Food Service" the applicant is requesting to seek a "Restaurant" occupancy classification that will allow: 1) to amend their hours of operation from 11:00 am to 10:00 pm daily; 2) an increase from 20 to 40 dining seats and, 3) allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for On -Sale Beer and Wine (Type 41 license). The applicant has recently acquired the business, operating it for a few weeks before closing it pending completion of the changes noted here. The local ABC office, pending formal processes out of the Sacramento office, has tentatively approved the ABC license application. No additions or changes to square footage planned at this time. They will continue to have recorded music inside and on the patio area. While we have no serious concerns in regards to sales of beer and wine, we believe there is a greater policy /land use issue involved in the approval process for intensifying the alcohol usage in this area of the community. As a result, it is difficult for the Police Department to endorse the proposed intensified use permit modification, especially considering the existing concentration of ABC licenses in the area. Accordingly, we believe the decision more appropriately should be left to the Planning Commission and /or City Council based on the said impacts. For police services information refer to the attached report by Crime Analyst Paul Salenko. Applicant History_: Brian and Lisa Matejka were formerly Newport Beach residents and operate the business as a partnership. Both have previous experience in the restaurant industry. Signs and Displays Any signs and displays would need to conform to city requirements. Hours of Operation: The recommended hours of operations are 11:00 am to 10:00 pm daily. X Preventive Design: The Police Department has no recommendations. There shall be no exterior advertising or signs of any kind or type, including advertising directed to the exterior from within, promoting or indicating the availability of alcoholic beverages. Interior displays of alcoholic beverages or signs that are clearly visible to the exterior shall constitute a violation of this condition. Securi : The Police Department has no recommendations. Employee Training: Require all owners, managers and employees serving and /or selling alcoholic beverages to undergo and successfully complete a certified training program in responsible methods and skills for serving and selling alcoholic beverages. Additional Comments: The Police Department has no objection to the operation as described by the applicants and, upon approval of the CUP, will condition the ABC license as necessary to maintain the health, safety and welfare of the community. For the purposes of this application, staff may also want to consider establishing conditions that would require Special Event Permit. A Special Event Permit may be required for any event or promotional activity outside the normal operational characteristics of the proposed operation. For example, events likely to attract large crowds, or events for which an admission fee is charged, those that include any form of party or contract promoters, or any other activities as specified in the Newport Beach Municipal Code to require such permits. It may also be appropriate to establish conditions that would address possible future uses in the event this business evolves towards a traditional bar -type establishment. In addition the Police Department believes the following conditions would be appropriate for the Conditional Use Permit for the business: Approval does not permit the premises to operate as a bar tavern, cocktail lounge or nightclub as defined by the Municipal Code, unless the Planning Commission first approves a Use Permit. 2. No alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent to the licensed premises under the control of the license. No "happy hour" type of reduced price alcoholic beverage promotion shall be allowed except when served in conjunction with food ordered from the full service menu. 4. There shall be no exterior advertising or signs of any kind or type, including advertising directed to the exterior from within, promoting or indicating the availability of alcoholic 0 City of Newport Beach Police Department Memorandum April 10, 2003 TO: Bill Cunningham, Staff Planner FROM: Paul Salenko, Crime Analyst SUBJECT: Alcohol Related Statistics At your request, our office has reviewed police services data for the Abbondanza Pizza Company at 514 West Balboa Blvd. This area encompasses our reporting district (RD) number 12 as well as part of Census Tract 628.
