ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTING
THE TRAFFIC PHASING ORDINANCE
A. Administrative Procedures.
1. General.
These procedures apply to all projects which have an Average Daily Trip
generator of more than 300 daily trips.
2. Evaluating Projects.
a. The applicant files a request for consideration of the entire project,
under the provisions of the Ordinance, with the Planning
Department. The request must be accompanied by a project
description, project phasing schedule, site plan, and fees as set by
the City Council.
b. A traffic analysis shall then be prepared by a qualified traffic
engineer under contract to the City according to the methodology
approved by the City Council.
C. The traffic analysis shall evaluate the traffic generated from all
proposed land uses. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.d., in
the case of conversion of an existing building to a more intense land
use, the incremental difference in traffic generated by the
development shall be evaluated.
d. Traffic generated by both existing and proposed land uses shall be
evaluated for any project proposed subsequent to, and within the
time frame for analysis used by (one year subsequent to the
anticipated date of occupancy), a previously approved Traffic
Study.
3. Staff Recommendation.
a. The City's Traffic Engineer will review the report prepared by the
consultant and transmit the findings and worksheet to the Planning
Department for presentation to the Planning Commission.

L -18
4. Planning Commission Review and Findings.
The Planning Commission shall review the determination and
recommendations of the Traffic Engineer and the Planning Department, at
a duly noticed public hearing, and make one of the following findings:
a. The City has issued a building or grading permit for the project
prior to May 8, 1978, and that the person to whom such permit was
issued has, in good faith and in reliance upon such permit,
diligently commenced construction and performed and incurred
substantial liabilities for work and materials necessary therefor.
No change, causing a substantial increase in traffic volumes, has
been made in such project, except in accordance with the provisions
of the Traffic Phasing Ordinance; or
b. The traffic projected one year after project completion, during any
a.m. or p.m. 2.5 hour peak traffic period on each leg of each critical
intersection, will be increased less than 1% by traffic generated
Q from the project during any a.m. or p.m. 2.5 hour period; or
C. A traffic analysis has been performed and accepted. The traffic
analysis was based on the projected street system and projected
traffic volumes one year after completion of the project or portion
of the project for which the traffic analysis was performed. The
traffic analysis has shown that, at that time, the additional traffic
generated by the project, or portion of the project, including any
approved trip generation reduction measures:
L will neither.cause nor make worse an unsatisfactory level of
traffic service on any "major," "primary modified," or
"primary" streets; or
ii. may cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic
service on one or more "major," "primary modified," or
"primary" streets; or
may cause or make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic
service on one or more "major," "primary modified," or
0 2
Q
L -18
"primary" streets; however, the benefits outweigh the
anticipated negative impact on transportation facilities, for
the following reasons: (specify)
5. Approval of Applications.
A simple majority vote by the Planning Commission, subject to City
Council review or appeal, is required for finding 4.a., 4.b., 4.c.i., or 4.c.ii.
A four- fifths majority vote by the Planning Commission (or by the City
Council on appeal or review) is required for finding 4.c.iii.
6. Appeals.
a. The determination of the Planning Commission may be appealed to
the City Council pursuant to the procedure set forth in Section
20.80.070 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
b. The City Council shall have a Right of Review as set forth in
Section 20.80.075 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
Outline of Methodology for Traffic Analyses. 0
1. Designation of Impacted Intersections and Determination of Project
Impact for the a.m. and p.m. 2.5 Hour Peak Periods.
a. The Traffic Engineer will determine which intersections will be
affected by the proposed project according to its size and
geographic location.
b. An analysis will be done whereby it will be determined if one year
after completion of the project, or portions of the project for which
the traffic analysis is being performed, the project (including those
portions for which traffic analyses have been previously approved)
will generate one percent or more of the projected traffic volumes
for each leg of each impacted intersection during that a.m. and p.m.
2.5 hour peak periods. If less than a one percent increase is
demonstrated for each leg, then the analysis is concluded, and
finding AA.b. may be made.

L -18
O2. If the initial Traffic Study indicated the project, or portion of the project,
for which the traffic analysis is being performed, one year after
completion may generate one percent or more of projected traffic volumes
on one or more legs of any impacted intersection, then the Traffic
Engineer or a qualified consultant will analyze the intersection capacity
utilization for the impacted intersection(s).
The report will indicate the following:
a. Existing traffic.
b. Projected increases in regional traffic by using the transportation
model and average growth rate for each roadway over the
preceding five (5) years.
C. Projected traffic from committed projects including all projects
within the City and sphere -of- influence including the Newport
Dunes, the Irvine Coastal Area, Santa Ana Heights, Beeco - Banning
property and additional projects as determined by the Traffic
Engineer which would have significant traffic impacts in the City.
d. Traffic generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
without trip generation reduction measures.
e. Traffic generated by the proposed project, or portion of the project,
with approved trip generation reduction measures.
3. Where a full traffic analysis is performed under Section B.2, the following
I.C.U. calculations shall be performed for each impacted intersection.
a. The existing I.C.U.
b. The I.C.U., with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion. This I.C.U. calculation
shall be based on all projected traffic sources except the proposed
project.
C. The I.C.U., with traffic system improvements that will be installed
before one year after project completion, based on all sources of
0 4
L -18
traffic, including traffic generated by the proposed project, with
approved trip generation reduction measures. .
I.C.U. calculations shall assume a lane capacity value of 1600 vphg for both through and
turn lanes; no factor for yellow time shall be included. I.C.U. calculations shall be
carried to three decimal places and rounded to two decimal places.
C. Definitions and Analysis Restraints.
1. Traffic System Improvements.
Traffic system improvements may be included in the traffic analysis for a
proposed project, provided that:
a. The improvement will be completed no more than one year after
completion of the project or project phase for which the traffic
analysis is being performed; and
b. The improvement is included in the Circulation Element of the
General Plan, and is defined sufficiently therein to permit an I.C.U.
analysis to be performed; or
C. The improvement design has been approved by the City Council,
and is defined sufficiently to permit an I.C.U. analysis to be
performed.
2. Projected Capacity Increases from Traffic System Improvements.
For purposes of the traffic analysis, 70% of the incremental increase in
intersection capacity. (based on a capacity of 1600. vehicles per hour of
green time for each full traffic lane) shall be utilized. Upon completion of
the improvement, traffic volume. counts shall be updated, and any
additional available capacity may then be utilized in future traffic
analyses.
3. Traffic Volumes.
a. Traffic volumes shall be based on up -to -date estimates of traffic
volumes expected to exist one year after completion of the project,
5
L -18
0 or portion of the project, for which the traffic analysis is being
performed. Such estimates shall include existing traffic as
determined by biennial field counts plus traffic generated by
previously approved projects or portions of projects expected to
exist in the same time period plus estimated increases in regional
traffic.
If the intersection configuration being analyzed is the ultimate
configuration consistent with the Circulation Element or otherwise
approved by the City Council, then the traffic volumes used in the
analysis shall include total traffic expected to be generated from all
previously approved projects even if they will not be completed at
the time the subject project is completed.
b. The incremental regional traffic for the time period between the
date of existing counts and one year after project completion will be
estimated based on the rate projected by the traffic model or on a
growth projection developed by the Traffic Engineer and approved
by the Planning Commission.

4. Trip Generation.
a. Trip generation estimates for the project shall be based on standard
trip generation values established by the City Traffic Engineer.
Standard trip generation rates may be modified only when the
applicant proposes specific, permanent measures that will reduce
peak hour traffic generated by the project, provided that:
1. The applicant describes in writing, in advance of the traffic
analysis, the proposed measure, the estimated reduction in
trip generation that will result, and the basis for the estimate.
The estimate must be approved by the Planning Commission
or City Council on appeal or review before the trip
generation figures may be reduced; and
2
L -18
2. The applicant provides the Planning Commission with a
written assurance that the proposed trip generation.
reduction measure will be permanently implemented, and
agrees to make said permanent implementation a condition
for project approval.
b. Credit shall be given for existing uses on the project site except that
no credit shall be given for any use that has been terminated for
more than one year prior to the filing of an application for new
development on the property.
5. Traffic Distribution.
Traffic distribution shall be based on. the traffic network expected to exist
one year after project completion including those portions of the network
associated with previously approved projects or portions of projects
expected to exist at that time.
6. Improvements or Modifications to the Circulation System.
If the applicant wishes to propose quantifiable improvements or changes
to the circulation system, which may not appear to be strictly consistent
with the Circulation Element, or special assumptions as a basis for the
traffic analysis, he shall provide a description of such proposals in writing
to the Planning Commission, along with supporting data justifying their
use, in advance of the traffic analysis. Such proposals may then be used in
the Traffic Analysis if they are approved by the Planning Commission and
the City Council
D. Issuance of Permits.
Permits may be issued for all or a portion of a project after an appropriate
finding under A.4. has been made.
1. Grading Permits.

APPENDIX A
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES FOR IMPLEMENTING
THE TRAFFIC PHASING ORDINANCE
1. Gene
These Administrative Procedures (Procedures) apply to any Project for which
Traffic Study is required by the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO).
2. Application.
a. The proponent of any Project subject to the TPO shall:
L file an application for a Traffic Study;
ii. pay the required fees; and
iii. sign an agreement to pay all costs related to the Traffic
Study.
b. The application shall be accompanied by the following information:
L A complete description of the Project including the total
amount of floor area to be constructed and the amount of
floor area allocated to each proposed land use;
ii. A Project site plan that depicts the location and intensity of
proposed development, the location of points of ingress and
egress, and the location of parking lots or structures;
iii. Any proposed Project phasing;
iv. Any trip reduction measure proposed by the Project
proponent;
V. Any information, study or report that supports any request by
the Project proponent to use trip generation rates that differ
from those used in the NBTAM or the most current version
of the ITE Manual or the SANDAG Manual; and
vi. Any other information that, in the opinion of the Traffic
Manager, is necessary to properly evaluate the traffic
impacts of the Project or the Circulation System
Improvements that could mitigate those traffic impacts.

3. Traffic Study Assumptions.
a. The definitions in Section 15.40.040 of the Newport Beach
Municipal Code shall be applicable to these Procedures.
b. ICU calculations shall assume a lane capacity value of 1600
vehicles per hour of green (vphg) for both through and turn lanes.
No factor for yellow time shall be included in the lane capacity
assumptions. ICU calculations shall be made by calculating the
volume to capacity ratios for each movement to three decimal
places, and then adding the critical movements to obtain an ICU
with three decimal places. The increase in the ICU attributable to
Project trips shall be calculated to three decimal places. The ICU
shall then be rounded to two decimal places. For example, an ICU
of .904 shall be rounded to .90 and an ICU of .905 shall be
rounded to .91.
C. Circulation System Improvements may be included in the Traffic
Study for a Project provided that the Traffic Manager determines:
i. The Improvement will be completed no more than one year
after completion of the Project or Project phase for which the
Traffic Study is being performed; and
fl. The Improvement is included in the Circulation Element of
the General Plan, and is defined in sufficiently precise terms
to allow the Traffic Engineer to conduct an ICU analysis; or
iii. The design of the Improvement is consistent with standard
City design criteria or has been approved by the City
Council, or other public entity with jurisdiction over the
Improvement, and is defined in sufficiently precise terms to
allow the Traffic Engineer to conduct an ICU analysis.
d. Traffic volumes shall be based on estimates of traffic volumes
expected to exist one year after completion of the Project, or that
portion of the . Project . for which the . Traffic Study is being
performed. The intent of this Subsection is to ensure use of the
most accurate information to estimate traffic volumes one year after
Project completion. Traffic volume estimates shall be based on:
The most current field counts for each Primary Intersection
with counts taken on weekdays during. the morning and
evening Peak Hour Period between February 1 and May 31;
ii. Traffic generated by Committed Projects as determined in
accordance with the TPO and these Procedures
iii. Projects reasonably expected to be complete within the one
16
year after Project completion and which are located in the
City of Newport Beach or its sphere of influence;
iv. Increases in regional traffic anticipated to occur within one
year after Project completion as projected in the NBTAM or
other accepted sources of future Orange County traffic is
growth; and
V. Other information customarily used by Traffic Engineers to
accurately estimate future traffic volumes.
e. For purposes of the traffic analysis of Circulation System
Improvements, seventy percent (70 %) of the incremental increase
in intersection capacity (based on a capacity of 1600 vphg for each
full traffic lane) shall be utilized. Upon completion of any
Circulation System Improvement, traffic volume counts shall be
updated, and any additional available capacity may then be utilized
in future Traffic Studies.
f. Trip generation rates for the land uses contemplated by the Project
shall be based on standard trip generation values utilized in
NBTAM except as provided in this Subsection. The Traffic
Engineer may, with the concurrence of the Traffic Manager, use trip
generation rates other than as specified in the NBTAM when
NBTAM trip generation rates are based on limited information or
study and there is a valid study of the trip generation rate of a
similar land use that supports a different rate.
g. The Traffic Engineer may, with the concurrence of the Traffic
Manager, reduce trip generation rates for some or all of the land
uses contemplated by the Project based on speck trip reduction
measures when:
L The Project proponent proposes in writing and prior to
commencement of the Traffic Study, specific and permanent.
measures that will reduce Peak Hour Period trips generated
by the Project; and
ii. The Traffic Manager and Traffic Engineer, in the exercise of
their best professional judgment, each determine that the
proposed measure(s) will reduce Peak Hour Period Project
trips and the specific reduction in Project trips that can
reasonably be expected; and
ill. The Project proponent provides the City with written
assurance that the proposed trip generation reduction
measure(s) will be permanently implemented. The Project
proponent must consent to make permanent implementation
17
of the measure(s) a condition to the approval of the Project,
and the measure(s) shall be made a condition of the Project
by the Planning Commission or City Council on review or
appeal.
h. In determining Project trips, credit shall be given for existing uses
on the Project site. Credit shall be given based on the trip
generation rates in the NBTAM. In the alternative, the Traffic
Manager may, in the exercise of his/her professional judgment,
authorize the use of trip generation rates in the ITE Manual,
SANDAG Manual, or on the basis of actual site traffic counts. In
the event the Project site has not been used for any purpose for a
period of one (1) year prior to the filing of an application for a Traffic
Study, credit shall be limited to trips generated by the last known
land use, if any, that could be resumed with no discretionary
approval. For any land use that is not active as of the date of the
application for Traffic Study, the Project proponent shall have the
burden of establishing that the use was in operation during the
previous one (1) year period.
i. The purpose of this Paragraph is to ensure that trips that would be
generated upon completion of a Project approved pursuant to the
TPO are incorporated into any subsequent Traffic Study conducted
prior to completion of the Project and /or post- Project field counts
specified in Section 3.d.i. A Committed Project is one that has
been approved pursuant to the TPO, requires no further
discretionary approval by the City, and has received, or is entitled
to receive, a building or grading permit for construction of the
Project or one or more phases of the Project. In preparing a Traffic
Study, trips generated by Committed Projects shall be included
subject to the following:
i. All trips generated by each Committed Project or that portion
or phase of the Committed Project for which no certificate of
occupancy has been issued shall be included in any Traffic
Study conducted prior to the Expiration Date of that
Committed Project;.
ii. In the event a final certificate of occupancy has been issued
for one or more phases of a Committed Project, all trips shall
be included in subsequent Traffic Studies until completion of
the first field counts required by Subsection 3(d)(i)
subsequent to the date on which the .final certificate of
occupancy was issued. Subsequent to completion of the
field counts, those trips generated by phases of the
Committed Project that have received a final certificate of
occupancy shall no longer be included in subsequent Traffic
Studies. '
16
r
4
iii. The Traffic Manager and Planning Director shall maintain a
list of Committed Projects and, at least annually, update the
list to reflect new Approvals pursuant to the TPO as well as
completion of all or a portion of each Committed Project. A
Committed Project shall not be removed frond the Committed
Project list until a final certificate of occupancy has been
issued for all phases and the field counts required by
Subsection 3(d)(i) have been taken subsequent to issuance
of the certificate of occupancy.
iv. The total trips generated by Committed Projects shall be
reduced by twenty percent (20 %) to account for the
interaction of Committed Project trips.
j. For purposes of Chapter 15.40 and these Procedures, the following
Levels of Traffic Service ranges shall apply:
A .00 -.60 ICU
B .61 -.70 ICU
C .71 -.80 ICU
D .81 -.90 ICU
E .91 —1.00 ICU
F Above 1.00 ICU
Initial Traffic Study Procedures.
a. The Traffic Manager shall retain a qualified Traffic Engineer
pursuant to contract with the City to prepare a Traffic Study for the
Project in compliance with the TPO and the methodology specified
in these Procedures.
b. The Traffic Manager shall advise the Traffic Engineer of the
methodology and assumptions required by these Procedures and
provide the Traffic Engineer with a copy of the TPO and these
Procedures.
C. The Traffic Manager, in consultation with the Traffic Engineer and
in accordance with accepted traffic engineering standards and
principles, shall determine the most probable manner in which
Project Trips will be distributed throughout the Circulation System.
The determination of Project trip distribution shall be consistent
with:
i. the assumptions in NBTAM relative to the trip production
and attraction characteristics of various land uses; and
ii. previous trip distribution determinations for Projects of
similar size and location;
19
0
Trip distributions shall be in increments of 5% of Project Trips. In no
event shall Project trips be removed from any roadway on which a Primary
Intersection is located except at a signalized intersection with another
roadway on which a Primary Intersection is located. The determination of
O Project trip distribution shall, in all cases, reflect the most probable
movement of Project trips throughout the Circulation System. The Traffic
Study shall clearly explain the rationale for the determination of Project
trip distribution.
d. The Traffic Engineer shall determine if Project trips will increase
traffic on any leg of any Primary Intersection by one percent (1 %)
or more during any Peak Hour Period one year after Project
completion.
e. In the event the Traffic Engineer determines that Project generated
trips will not increase traffic by one percent (1 %) or more on any leg
of any Primary Intersection during any morning or evening Peak
Hour Period one year after Project completion the analysis will be
terminated. In such event the Traffic Study and worksheet shall be
submitted to the Planning Commission with a recommendation that
the Project be determined exempt from the TPO pursuant to
Section 15.40.030 C.2.
f. No mitigation shall be identified or required for any Primary
Intersection unless Project trips increase traffic on one or more of
O the legs of the intersection by one percent (1 %) or more during any
morning or evening Peak Hour Period.
5. Traffic Study Methodoloqv.
a. The Traffic Engineer, in preparing the Traffic Study, shall evaluate
the impact of Project trips generated from all proposed land uses
based on the assumptions specified in Section 3 and the
methodology specified in this Section.
b. In the case of conversion of an existing structure to a more intense
land use, the incremental increase In trips generated by the Project
shall be evaluated. In the event the uses within the existing
structure changed during the preceding twelve (12) months, the
differential shall be calculated on the basis of the prior use or uses
with the highest trip generation rates according to the NBTAM (or
ITE Manual or SANDAG Manual as appropriate).
c. Project trips shall be distributed in accordance with the
determination specked in Subparagraph 4c.
d. The following ICU calculations shall be perfonned for each Primary
OIntersection where, one year after Project completion, Project
generated trips will increase traffic by one percent (1 %) or more on
20
any leg of the Primary Intersection during any morning and /or
evening Peak Hour Period:
i. The existing ICU;
ii. The ICU, with Circulation System Improvements that will be
in place within one year after Project completion, based on
all projected traffic including regional traffic increases and
trips generated by Committed Projects excluding Project
generated trips; and
iii. The ICU in (ii) with Project trips;
iv. The ICU in (ii) with Project trips and any trip reduction
measures approved by the Traffic Manager
V. The ICU in (ii) with Project trips and any mitigation resulting
from Improvements
V1. The ICU in (v) with trip reduction measures approved by the
Traffic Manager.
e. The Traffic Study shall, for each Impacted Primary Intersection with
an Unsatisfactory Level of Service (ICU of .905 or more) that has
been caused or made worse by Project generated trips, identity
each Feasible Improvement that could mitigate some or all of the
impacts of Project trips. The Traffic Study shall also determine the
extent to which the Improvement provides additional capacity for
critical movements at the Impacted Primary Intersection in excess
of the Project trips and any other information relevant to the
calculation of any fee required by the TPO.
f. The Traffic Study shall, for each Improvement identified pursuant to
Subsection e., estimate the cost of making the Improvement
including the cost of property acquisition, design, and construction.
The Traffic Engineer may perform the cost estimate or, with the
approval of the Traffic Manager, retain a civil engineer or other
qualified professional to prepare the cost estimates.
g. The determination of "effective capacity increase" and "effective
capacity decrease" as described in Section 15.40.030 B.1.d. shall
be made as specified in this Subparagraph.
i. In determining the "effective capacity increase" attributable
to any Improvement to any Primary Intersection, the Traffic
Engineer shall first calculate the ICU with existing,
committed and regional strips (Future W/O Project ICU).
Then the ICU shall be calculated with existing, committed
and regional trips and the Improvement (Improved W/O
21
Project ICU). The "effective capacity increase" shall be
determined by subtracting the Improved W/O Project ICU
from the Future W/O Project ICU.
O ii. In determining the "effective capacity decrease" attributable
to Project trips the Traffic Engineer shall first calculate the
ICU of the Primary Intersection with existing, committed and
regional trips, Project trips and the Improvement (Improved
With Project ICU). The "effective capacity decrease" shall
be calculated by subtracting the Improved W/O Project ICU
from the Improved With Project ICU.
iii. For example, if the Future W/O Project ICU is .92 and the
Improved W/O Project ICU is .82 the "effective capacity
increase" is 10. If the Improved W/O Project ICU is .82 and
the Improved ICU With Project ICU is .87 the "effective
capacity decrease" is 5. Assuming the cost of the
Improvement is $100,000 the contribution of the Project
would be $50,000 ($100,000 multiplied by 5/10).
h. The Traffic Study shall also provide the Planning Commission with
any additional information relevant to the findings or analysis
required by the TPO.
6. Staff Analysis
Oa. The Traffic Engineer shall transmit a draft Traffic Study to the
Traffic Manager for review, comment and correction. The Traffic
Manager shall review the draft Traffic Study and submit corrections
to the Traffic Engineer within 15 days after receipt. The Traffic
Engineer shall make the corrections within ten (10) days of receipt
and transmit the final Traffic Study to the Traffic Manager.
b. The Traffic Manager shall transmit the final Traffic Study to the
Planning Department for presentation to the Planning Commission.
7. Issuance of Permits.
The City shall not issue building, grading or other permits for a Project
Approved pursuant to Section 15.40.030 B.1.b., 15.40.030 B.1.c., or
15.40.030 B.2. until each Improvement that has been assumed to be in
place for purposes of Project Approval, or is to be constructed or funded
as a condition to Project Approval, satisfies the following criteria:
a. The Improvement has been budgeted and committed for
construction by or on behalf of the City; or
b. The State, County or other governmental agency making the
Improvement has accepted bids for the Project; or

C. The Improvement has been approved by the appropriate
governmental jurisdictions and is to be constructed by the Project
proponent in conjunction with development of the Project or the
Project proponent has guaranteed construction of the Improvement
through the posting of bonds or other form of assurance.
Reimbursement Programs.
a. The City Council may establish Reimbursement Programs to
ensure Project conditions are roughly proportional to Project
impacts and to facilitate the prompt construction of Improvements
to mitigate the impact of Project trips. A Reimbursement Program
may be proposed by the City Manager to the City Council
whenever he /she becomes aware of the potential for multiple
Projects to impact a Primary Intersection and a Feasible
Improvement may be required of one or more of the Projects
because of the impact of Project trips.
b. A Reimbursement Program shall have the following components:
i. Identification of the Feasible Improvement(s) including,
without limitation, preliminary design and cost estimates and
the estimated date of completion of the Feasible
Improvement(s);
ii. Calculation of the "effective capacity increase" attributable to
the Feasible Improvement(s);
