SUBJECT: Formation of an Ad Hoc Committee for negotiating the Newport Beach
Country Club Development Agreement
ISSUE
Should the City Council form an ad hoc committee for the consideration of a Development
Agreement in conjunction with the Newport Beach Country Club Planned Community
Application?
RECOMMENDATION
1. Adopt Resolution 2007 -_ forming the City Council Ad Hoc Development Agreement
Committee.
2. Confirm the Mayor's appointment of up to three Council Members.
DISCUSSION
The Newport Beach Country Club submitted an application for a Planned Community
Development Plan, which includes the development of 32 housing units (5 single - family
dwelling units and 27 short-term rental units) that would be drawn from the 450 dwelling units
allocated for Newport Center in the General Plan. Policy LU 6.14.8 requires the execution of
development agreements for residential and mixed -use projects that use this allocation.
Development agreements are required to define the improvements and benefits to be
contributed by the developer in exchange for the City's commitment for the number, density,
and location of the housing units.
Staff is seeking guidance from the City Council on the terms and conditions of such an
agreement. Staff, therefore, recommends a formation of a short-term ad hoc committee to
ensure that adequate public benefits will be provided. The committee members would be
appointed by the Mayor and could be comprised of up to three Council Members.
