SUBJECT: ENCROACHMENT AGREEMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE OF PRIVATE IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE PUBLIC RIGHT -OF -WAY ADJACENT TO 3709 OCEAN BOULEVARD, CORONA DEL MAR (EP99 -475) January 11, 2000 Page 2 The proposed landscaping will be approved with height restriction conditions that will: • Improve sight distance for vehicle and pedestrian traffic adjacent to the driveway and public sidewalk • Protect views of the adjacent residents and non - residents along the street and sidewalk of Ocean Boulevard • Protect views of properties on the opposite side of Ocean Boulevard The proposed encroachments within the Ocean Boulevard right -of -way are similar in nature to existing encroachments along the ocean side of Ocean Boulevard. Council Policy L -6, 'Private Encroachments in the Public Right -of- Way," requires the prior approval of City Council for private structural improvements such as planters, walls, stairs, etc., in public easements or rights -of -way. An Encroachment Agreement would allow construction of the driveway, wall, patio, planter, drainage system, and landscape improvements in the right -of -way as approved by the Public Works Department and require the property owner to maintain the proposed and existing encroachments. Proposed landscaping would be approved by the General Services Department with a maximum height restriction and maintained by the owner. The attached Encroachment Agreement includes a hold harmless clause indemnifying the City of Newport Beach against any liability connected with the proposed and existing encroachments in the Ocean Boulevard right -of -way.

ARCHITECTURE December 14, 1999 Gill Wong /Public Works City of Newport Beach 3300 Newport Blvd. Newport Beach, CA 92659 Feldman Residence: 3709 Ocean Blvd. Dear Gill, We are proposing an encroachment permit to improve the existing city property landscape and hardscape features. The proposed plan features an enlarged patio, a revised bridge design to the entry and some new planting. We are also proposing to re- surface existing block wall planters. The new planting will consist of five new trees and new ground cover surrounding the existing rose bushes. The above elements should make the city property more aesthetically pleasing for the owner, neighbors and those using the public right of way. We have noted the types of plant materials and trees to be installed. We have tried to select plant materials that will blend with the existing neighborhood landscaping. The property owner has agreed to maintain the new landscaping in a manner consistent with city standards. No tree or landscape element shall exceed the height of the curb on Ocean Blvd. We have included some photos for your review. Please feel free to call if you have any questions regarding this submittal. Sincerely, Brion S.
