The Council certified the EIR and approved a reduced project. The changes to the project and resolution were: • Reduction in the net increase in gross floor area from 21,741 to 15,000 square feet. All gross floor area references were reduced. This change necessitated a corresponding reduction in the AM and PM traffic trips within the Charter Section 423 (Measure S) finding. • Condition No. 2a was revised to reflect lower evening occupancy levels as follows: evening maximum concurrent occupancy: two evenings per week at 400 people; three evenings per week at 600 people; and two evenings per week at 1,200 people. • Condition No. 45 was revised as follows: St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church shall issue 85 parking permits to Newport Harbor High School to reduce the need for neighborhood street parking by students and staff on school days. • To implement the Council's desire to prohibit future expansions, staff added a new condition. Condition No. 83 reads, "The maximum allowable gross square footage shall not exceed 119,440 square feet. The applicant shall not request nor shall the City grant an amendment to this Use Permit to increase the maximum allowable area permitted on the St. Andrew's Church campus." The Mayor has signed the resolution and it is effective. The final item that requires action by the Council is the adoption of the attached ordinance that was introduced at the last meeting. As you will recall, the zoning of the property needs to be changed from R -1 & R -2 to GEIF (Governmental, Educational Institutional Facilities) to implement the project. No changes to the introduced ordinance were necessary as a result of the changes to project outlined above. Staff recommends adoption of the ordinance. Prepared by: mes W.
