Re: Eat Chow
Project File No.: PA2013 -034, Activity No.: UP2013 -005
An amendment to expand (outdoor dining)
I am a resident of Newport Beach Shore, my residence is next door. I have been asked by
several residences to speak at the schedule meeting Thursday, April 11, 2013 at 3:30 p.m.
cannot attend along with several of my neighbors. I am writing this protest letter for my
neighbors and myself.
Noise! Noise! Noise! Delivery Trucks through the back door. That's all we hear since Eat
Chow opened its doors. To begin, we neighbors are bombarded with delivery trucks mornings,
afternoons and throughout the day. These delivery trucks ignore the Newport Beach Cities red
curb and park in front of our houses. As a result, trucks are parked in red zones and the lift
gate awakens many of us. Outdoor dining, more trucks in the red zone.
Noise! Noise! Noise! Opening and closing the back door. We hear throughout the day. The
opening and closing of the back door is constantly heard throughout the day. Dining, cleaning,
patrons can be heard through the open and closed door policy throughout the day. Entering
and exiting by employees and vendors, along with watering down mats and other cleaning
duties. Outdoor dining - more cleaning and opening and closing the back door.
Noise! Noise! Noise! There is Valet parking in our neighborhood. Eat Chow is running a
business in Newport Shores residential neighborhood. Patron's autos are parked in the
neighborhood. We are constantly hearing autos during the dinner hours. Auto jams are
occurring frequently along 62nd street, not to mention employee street parking throughout the
day. Outdoor dining more traffic jams.
Noise! Noise! Noise! There is a Roof top heating /venting machine. This apparatus has a
constant humming from 6:00pm to 11:00pm. We are awakening each morning at 6:00am by
this heating system every day. There have been several occasions that this system was kept
on all night. It's hard to believe that such a small building would require such a hugh, ugly and
noisy system. Outdoor dining more roof top humming.

Eat Chow Outdoor Minor Use Permit (PA2013 -034)
My neighbors and I ask that the Zoning Administration of the City of Newport Beach reject this
application and that it reevaluates Eat Chow's operation and code violations. We neighbors
have had enough of this nuisance activity that is constantly taking place and destroying our
once quit neighborhood.
Sincerely,
Representing a coalition of Newport Shore Residence
