TITLE: Uptown Newport Development Agreement Amendment Located at 4311 -4321
Jamboree Road - Second Reading (PA2015 -015)
ABSTRACT:
The second reading and adoption of Ordinance 2015 -11, approving an Amendment to Uptown Newport
Development Agreement No. DA2012 -003 (DA) pertaining to the timing of the payment of public benefit
fees and fees in -lieu of parkland dedication (park fees).
RECOMMENDATION:
Conduct second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 2015 -11, An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of
Newport Beach, California, Approving First Amendment to Development Agreement No. DA 2012 -003 for
the 25.05 Acre Planned Community Known as Uptown Newport Located at 4311 -4321 Jamboree Road
(PA2015 -015) (Staff Report Attachment No. CC 1).
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
The proposed DA amendment includes an 18 to 24 -month postponement of the public benefit fee payment
to the City. However, the DA does provide for an annual increase to the public benefit fee based on a cost
of living escalator. Therefore, the proposed fee payment deferral will result in an overall higher fee
payment to the City. Based on 1,244 units, the total public benefit fee payment to the City is $40,430,000,
prior to the application of any cost of living escalator.
The proposed amendment also includes a payment deferral of the park fees, for which the current DA does
not include a cost of living escalator. To offset the proposed delay of the park fee payment in each phase,
staff has negotiated with the applicant to include in the DA the addition of a four percent (4 %) annual
interest rate on any deferred park fees due for Phase 1. For Phase 2, the proposed annual interest rate is
five percent (5 %) on any deferred park fees. Staff believes that these rates will reflect the City's average
cost of borrowing in these development timeframes.
Based on the DA's terms, the project's total park land dedication requirement is 13.62 acres. The
established fair market value for the park land is $2,500,000 per acre, which results in a total park land
3 -1
value of $34,050,000. This is the total value before the application of any credits for park land dedication
and public and private recreational improvements as allowed by the DA terms.
DISCUSSION:
On April 28, 2015, after a noticed public hearing, the City Council introduced and passed to second reading
Ordinance No. 2015 -11 that approved First Amendment to Development Agreement No. DA2012 -003.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
All significant environmental concerns for the Uptown Newport project have been addressed in the
previously certified Environmental Impact Report No. ER2012 -001 (SCH No. 2010051094), and the City of
Newport Beach intends to use said document for the above noted project, and further that there are no
additional reasonable alternative or mitigation measures that should be considered in conjunction with said
project. Copies of the previously prepared environmental document are available for public review and
inspection at the Planning Division or at the City of Newport Beach website at
www.newportbeachca.gov/cegadocuments.
NOTICING:

community, containing a mix of housing types, supporting retail and active

designation of Mixed -Use Horizontal -2 and the Airport Business Area Integrated
Conceptual Development Plan.
2. The changes included in the Amendment are to defer the timing for the payment
of the Public Benefit Fee to be on a per -unit basis upon issuance of certificates of
occupancy, instead of building permits, and to change the timing of the payment of

for an individual Project is issued, rather than issuance of the first building permit
for all units within a final map.

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, City and Landowners agree as follows:
I. Public Benefit Fee. Section 3.1 is hereby amended in its entirety to read as
follows:
"As consideration for City's approval and performance of its obligations set forth
in this Agreement, Landowner shall pay to City a fee that shall be in addition to
any other fee or charge to which the Property and the Project would otherwise be
subject (herein, the "Public Benefit Fee ") in the sum of Thirty -Two Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars ($32,500.00) per residential dwelling unit Developed as
part of the Project, with the unpaid balance of said Public Benefit Fee increased
beginning on January 1, 2015, by the percentage increase in the CPI Index
between the Effective Date and said January I st date (the first "Adjustment Date ")
and thereafter with the unpaid balance of said Public Benefit Fee increased on
each subsequent January I during the Tenn of this Agreement (each, an
"Adjustment Date ") by the percentage increase in the CPI Index in the year prior
to the applicable Adjustment Date. The amount of the percentage increase in the
CPI Index on the applicable Adjustment Dates shall in each instance be calculated
based on the then most recently available CPI Index figures such that, for
example, if the Effective Date of this Agreement falls on July 1 and the most
recently available CPI Index figure on the first Adjustment Date (January 1 of the
following year) is the CPI Index for November of the preceding year, the
percentage increase in the CPI Index for that partial year (a 6 -month period) shall
be calculated by comparing the CPI Index for November of the preceding year
with the CPI Index for May of the preceding year (a 6 -month period). In no event,
however, shall application of the CPI Index reduce the amount of the Public
Benefit Fee (or unpaid portion thereof) below the amount in effect prior to any
applicable Adjustment Date. Landowner shall pay the Public Benefit Fee on a per
unit basis at the time each residential building permit is issued, or at Landowner's
option and in Landowner's sole discretion, at the time each certificate of
occupancy is issued. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this
Agreement to the contrary, during the Term of this Agreement City shall not
increase the Public Benefit Fee except pursuant to the CPI Index as stated in this
Section 3.1. Landowner acknowledges by its approval and execution of this
Agreement that it is voluntarily agreeing to pay the Public Benefit Fee, that its
obligation to pay the Public Benefit Fee is an essential tern of this Agreement and
is not severable from City's obligations and Landowner's vesting rights to be
acquired hereunder, and that Landowner expressly waives any constitutional,
statutory, or common law right it might have in the absence of this Agreement to
protest or challenge the payment of such fee on any ground whatsoever, including
without limitation pursuant to the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United
States Constitution, California Constitution Article I Section 19, the Mitigation
Fee Act (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq.), or otherwise. In
addition to any other remedy set forth in this Agreement for Landowner's default,
if Landowner shall fail to timely pay any portion of the Public Benefit Fee when
J 201015 Q

due City shall have the right to withhold issuance of any further building permits,
occupancy permits, or other development or building permits for the Project."
2. Park Fees. Section 3.2.1, subdivision (iv), is hereby amended in its entirety to
read as follows:
"In -lieu of parkland dedication fees ("Park In -Lieu Fees ") shall be paid to the City
prior to the issuance of building permits. Payment of Park In -Lieu Fees shall be
made for all units included on any final map(s) at the time that the first building
permit is issued for any single unit included on a final map(s). However, at
Landowner's option and in Landowner's sole discretion, Landowner may elect to
defer payment(s) of Park In -Lieu Fees for some or all units contained on any final
map(s) (the "Deferred Units ") until building permits are sought for the building or
buildings containing those Deferred Units. In such cases, Landowner shall pay, in
addition to the Park In -Lieu Fees for the Deferred Units, an interest charge in the
amount of four percent (4 %) per annum for any Deferred Units in Phase I (as
Phase I is shown on the approved phasing plan for the Project), and five percent
(5 %) per annum for any Deferred Units in Phase 2 (as Phase 2 is shown on the
approved phasing plan for the Project). The period in which the interest charge(s)
shall apply to any particular Deferred Units shall begin at Landowner's election to
defer payment of Park In -Lieu Fees for those Deferred Unit(s), and shall continue
to accrue on a per annum basis until such time that Landowner actually pays the
Park In -Lieu Fees for those particular unit(s) (the "Deferral Period"). The Park
In -Lieu Fees for any Deferred Units shall be paid on a per -unit basis no later than
upon the issuance of a building permit per individual building(s) in the Project.
For example, if a building permit is sought for a building in Phase I that includes
100 Deferred Units, Park In -Lieu Fees plus the interest charge of four percent
(4 %) per annum that accrued over the Deferral Period for those Deferred Units
must be paid for those 100 Deferred Units before the building permit for that
building can be issued. As another example, if a building permit is sought for a
building in Phase 2 that includes 300 Deferred Units, Park In -Lieu Fees plus the
interest charge of five percent (5 %) per annum that accrued over the Deferral
Period for those Deferred Units must be paid for those 300 Deferred Units before
the building pen-nit for that building can be issued. The fee amount for Park In-
Lieu Fees shall be calculated on a per -unit basis based on the pro -rated gross
acreage of the final map minus any parkland dedication and applicable credits for
recreational improvements approved by the City pursuant to the General Plan and
the Subdivision Code within the area encompassed by the final map, then dividing
the balance by the number of units contained in the area encompassed by that
final map. For example, if a final map encompasses 10 acres of the 25.05 acre
planned community (or 39.92% of the total acreage), the amount of the Park In-
lieu Fees required to be paid on a per -unit would be 39.92% of the 13.62 acre
parkland dedication requirement minus any parkland dedication and any approved
credits for recreational improvements, divided by the number of units contained
within that final map."
3. Full Force and Effect. Except as modified by this First Amendment, the
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

6. Recordation. The City Clerk of City shall record this First Amendment in the
Office of the County Recorder of the County of Orange within the period required by California
Government Code section 65868.5 and City of Newport Beach Municipal Code section
15.45.100. The date of this First Amendment and the date of recordation of this First
Amendment shall not modify or amend the Effective Date or the Termination Date of the
Agreement.

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, City and Landowners agree as follows:
1. Public Benefit Fee. Section 3.1 is hereby amended in its entirety to read as
follows:
"As consideration for City's approval and performance of its obligations set forth
in this Agreement, Landowner shall pay to City a fee that shall be in addition to
any other fee or charge to which the Property and the Project would otherwise be
subject (herein, the "Public Benefit Fee ") in the sum of Thirty -Two Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars ($32,500.00) per residential dwelling unit Developed as
part of the Project, with the unpaid balance of said Public Benefit Fee increased
beginning on January I, 2015, by the percentage increase in the CPI Index
between the Effective Date and said January 1st date (the first "Adjustment Date ")
and thereafter with the unpaid balance of said Public Benefit Fee increased on
each subsequent January I during the Term of this Agreement (each, an
"Adjustment Date ") by the percentage increase in the CPI Index in the year prior
to the applicable Adjustment Date. The amount of the percentage increase in the
CPI Index on the applicable Adjustment Dates shall in each instance be calculated
based on the then most recently available CPI Index figures such that, for
example, if the Effective Date of this Agreement falls on July 1 and the most
recently available CPI Index figure on the first Adjustment Date (January 1 of the
following year) is the CPI Index for November of the preceding year, the
percentage increase in the CPI Index for that partial year (a 6 -month period) shall
be calculated by comparing the CPI Index for November of the preceding year
with the CPI Index for May of the preceding year (a 6 -month period). In no event,
however, shall application of the CPI Index reduce the amount of the Public
Benefit Fee (or unpaid portion thereof) below the amount in effect prior to any
applicable Adjustment Date. Landowner shall pay the Public Benefit Fee on a per
unit basis at the time each residential building permit is issued, or at Landowner's
option and in Landowner's sole discretion, at the time each certificate of
occupancy is issued. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this
Agreement to the contrary, during the Term of this Agreement City shall not
increase the Public Benefit Fee except pursuant to the CPI Index as stated in this
Section 3.1. Landowner acknowledges by its approval and execution of this
Agreement that it is voluntarily agreeing to pay the Public Benefit Fee, that its
obligation to pay the Public Benefit Fee is an essential term of this Agreement and
is not severable from City's obligations and Landowner's vesting rights to be
acquired hereunder, and that Landowner expressly waives any constitutional,
statutory, or common law right it might have in the absence of this Agreement to
protest or challenge the payment of such fee on any ground whatsoever, including
without limitation pursuant to the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United
States Constitution, California Constitution Article I Section 19, the Mitigation
Fee Act (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq.), or otherwise. In
addition to any other remedy set forth in this Agreement for Landowner's default,
if Landowner shall fail to timely pay any portion of the Public Benefit Fee when
4/29/2015 v2

1251052.2
3 -23
due City shall have the right to withhold issuance of any further building permits,
occupancy permits, or other development or building permits for the Project."
2. Park Fees. Section 3.2.1, subdivision (iv), is hereby amended in its entirety to
read as follows:
"In -lieu of parkland dedication fees ( "Park In -Lieu Fees ") shall be paid to the City
prior to the issuance of building permits. Payment of Park In -Lieu Fees shall be
made for all units included on any final map(s) at the time that the first building
permit is issued for any single unit included on a final map(s). However, at
Landowner's option and in Landowner's sole discretion, Landowner may elect to
defer payment(s) of Park In -Lieu Fees for some or all units contained on any final
map(s) (the "Deferred Units ") until building permits are sought for the building or
buildings containing those Deferred Units. In such cases, Landowner shall pay, in
addition to the Park In -Lieu Fees for the Deferred Units, an interest charge in the
amount of four percent (4 %) per annum for any Deferred Units in Phase 1 (as
Phase I is shown on the approved phasing plan for the Project), and five percent
(5 %) per annum for any Deferred Units in Phase 2 (as Phase 2 is shown on the
approved phasing plan for the Project). The period in which the interest charge(s)
shall apply to any particular Deferred Units shall begin at Landowner's election to
defer payment of Park In -Lieu Fees for those Deferred Unit(s), and shall continue
to accrue on a per annum basis until such time that Landowner actually pays the
Park In -Lieu Fees for those particular unit(s) (the "Deferral Period "). The Park
In -Lieu Fees for any Deferred Units shall be paid on a per -unit basis no later than
upon the issuance of a building permit per individual building(s) in the Project.
For example, if a building permit is sought for a building in Phase 1 that includes
100 Deferred Units, Park In -Lieu Fees plus the interest charge of four percent
(4 %) per annum that accrued over the Deferral Period for those Deferred Units
must be paid for those 100 Deferred Units before the building permit for that
building can be issued. As another example, if a building permit is sought for a
building in Phase 2 that includes 300 Deferred Units, Park In -Lieu Fees plus the
interest charge of five percent (5 %) per annum that accrued over the Deferral
Period for those Deferred Units must be paid for those 300 Deferred Units before
the building permit for that building can be issued. The fee amount for Park In-
Lieu Fees shall be calculated on a per -unit basis based on the pro -rated gross
acreage of the final map minus any parkland dedication and applicable credits for
recreational improvements approved by the City pursuant to the General Plan and
the Subdivision Code within the area encompassed by the final map, then dividing
the balance by the number of units contained in the area encompassed by that
final map. For example, if a final map encompasses 10 acres of the 25.05 acre
planned community (or 39.92% of the total acreage), the amount of the Park In-
lieu Fees required to be paid on a per -unit would be 39.92% of the 13.62 acre
parkland dedication requirement minus any parkland dedication and any approved
credits for recreational improvements, divided by the number of units contained
within that final map."
3. Full Force and Effect. Except as modified by this First Amendment, the
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

Agreement.
