TITLE: Malarky's Irish Pub Appeal - (PA2010 -172)
3011 Newport Boulevard
An appeal of the Planning Commission's approval of Conditional Use Permit No. UP2010-
039 and Comprehensive Sign Program No. CS2011 -002 authorizing the expansion and
remodel of an existing eating and drinking establishment with late hours and allowing the
use of off -site parking. This item was continued from the April 26, 2011, City Council
meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Conduct public hearing; and
2. Modify the decision of the Planning Commission and adopt Resolution No. _
approving Conditional Use Permit No. UP2010 -039 and Comprehensive Sign
Program No. CS2011 -003, subject to findings and conditions included within the
draft resolution (Attachment No. CC 1).
April 26, 2011 City Council Hearing
On April 26, 2011, the City Council reviewed the proposed project and received
extensive testimony from the public. A total of 18 members of the public spoke in
support of the project. Seven residents spoke in opposition.
The City Council generally supported the project as conditionally approved by the
Planning Commission, with the exception of Condition No. 10. The City Council believed
that Condition No. 10, which requires the interior occupancy to be reduced from 166
persons to 120 persons between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m., would be
difficult to implement and enforce.

There was a general consensus that the applicant should be allowed to improve the
business and make a reasonable return on his investment. The City Council believed
that with the requirement to secure an operator license pursuant to Chapter 5.25 of the
Municipal Code provided the City with the ability to effectively regulate the
establishment should problems occur in the future.
However, to address the concerns that the increased occupancy during late hours may
potentially create a detriment to the neighborhood, Councilmember Henn made a
motion to approve the project as proposed, with the following modifications:
O Deleted Condition No. 10 requiring the interior occupancy to be reduced to 120
persons between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m.
Added a new condition prohibiting the operator from allowing any entry or re-
entry of patrons into the establishment after midnight (New Condition No. 10).
Modified Conditions No. 4 and 5 to require full meal service to be provided until
midnight.
The City Council conducted a straw vote on the motion, which revealed support of the
motion from a majority the City Council. In order to allow the applicant time to consider
to the proposed action and an opportunity to present an alternative proposal that could
potentially address the Council's concern, the City Council continued the public hearing
to this meeting date.
Revised Resolution
As of the writing of this report, the applicant has not provided any new information or
alternative proposals. It is anticipated that the applicant will present an alternative at the
time of the hearing. however, should the applicant submit a proposal, staff will transmit it
to the City Council and make it available to the public. The attached draft resolution
incorporates the changes included in Councilmember Henn's motion. In addition, staff
has included Conditions No. 11 and 12 to ensure that the floor plan and occupancy
remains substantially the same as that currently proposed.
G Condition No. 11- Sets the maximum square feet of net public area allowed
within the interior of the establishment to 1,715 sq. ft. and on the outdoor dining
patio to 782 sq. ft, as proposed. Application of this condition will ensure that any
increase in net public area will require an amendment of this conditional use
permit.
Condition No. 12- Sets the maximum interior occupant load of the interior of the
establishment to 166 persons. Application of this condition will ensure that in the
future, the expanded dining room area is not reconfigured for bar seating or
standing room, resulting in an increase in occupancy.

north and south elevations and considered secondary frontages and consist of
only one wall sign and two incidental awning signs.
Standard:
C. The sign program shall address all signs, including permanent, temporary, and
exempt signs.
Facts in Support of Standard:
C -1. The Sign Program submitted for the project addresses all project signage.

deviations are allowed with regard to sign area, total number, location, and /or
height of signs to the extent that the Comprehensive Sign Program will enhance

this Chapter.
Facts in Support of Standard:

more aesthetically pleasing orientation of signage and achieves the applicant's
design theme of a traditional Irish pub.

in the wall signs separation and centering are merited to allow the applicant
more effective sign placement.

corner of the building allows for increased sign visibility for motorists driving
along Newport Boulevard.

1. Pursuant to Section 20.42.120 of the Zoning Code, approval of a Comprehensive Sign
Program is required whenever 3 or more signs are proposed for a single- tenant

City Council Resolution No. _
Paqe 3 of 20
Standard:

integral with the design and character of the building.
B -2. The applicant is proposing to renovate the exterior appearance of the building in
the architectural theme of a traditional Irish pub.
B -3. The existing tower element divides the primary frontage of the building requiring
signage to be broken up into three separate wall signs. The remaining awning
signs and projecting sign are minor and incidental to the primary wall signs. The
north and south elevations and considered secondary frontages and consist of
only one wall sign and two incidental awning signs.
Standard:
C. The sign program shall address all signs, including permanent, temporary, and
exempt signs.
Facts in Support of Standard:
C -1. The Sign Program submitted for the project addresses all project signage.
Temporary and exempt signs not specifically addressed in the Program shall be
regulated by the provisions of Chapter 20.42.

deviations are allowed with regard to sign area, total number, location, andlor
height of signs to the extent that the Comprehensive Sign Program will enhance
the overall development and will more fully accomplish the purposes and intent of
this Chapter.
Facts in Support of Standard:
E -1. The Sign Program requests deviation in number of signs and location.
E -2. The sign code normally allows one wall sign up to 75 square feet in area on the

more aesthetically pleasing orientation of signage and achieves the applicant's
design theme of a traditional Irish pub.
E -4. The projecting sign and awning signs are minor and incidental the main wall
signage. Also, given the orientation of the building, staff believes the deviations
in the wall signs separation and centering are merited to allow the applicant
more effective sign placement.

corner of the building allows for increased sign visibility for motorists driving
along Newport Boulevard.
Standard:

The subject property consists of three parcels and 20- foot -wide easement for pedestrian
and vehicular access and vehicular parking (see Vicinity Map). The restaurant/pub
building itself and a portion of the required parking are located on the large, central
parcel fronting Newport Boulevard. The balance of the required parking is located off -
site on the 20- foot -wide easement to the north of the building and on the small parcel to
the west. The applicant has also recently constructed a new parking lot on the former
vacant lot south of the building in anticipation of the increased parking demand
associated with this subject application.
The building consists of 4,966 square feet of gross floor area, of which only 1,150
square feet is considered Net Public Area (NPA)'. The remaining floor area is used for
office space, kitchen, food preparation, food storage, and restrooms. The existing
furniture layout consists of a large, central bar and five bar tops located around the
perimeter of the establishment. Sit -down dining is limited and consists of one booth and
four tables.
Project Description
The applicant took ownership of the establishment in April of 2010 and is proposing to
remodel and expand the establishment as follows:
1. Remodel- To more efficiently utilize the floor area within the existing building, the
applicant is proposing to remodel the existing floor plan to include a new dining
room, enlarged restrooms that are handicapped accessible, a new waiter service
station, and a reduction of office space and food storage. As required by Building
Code, the remodel will include the installation of fire sprinklers and a grease
interceptor.
2. Interior Dining Room Expansion- To allow for increased food service, the
applicant is proposing to add approximately 565 square feet of sit -down dining
area. The dining area will consist of three new booths and approximately 11 new
tables. The total interior NPA of the facility will increase to 1,715 square feet.
3. Outdoor Dining Patio— A new 782 - square -foot outdoor dining patio is proposed
to be constructed on the north side of the building. The applicant is proposing to
provide only one exit from the patio, which will limit the maximum occupant load
to a total of 49 persons. A 9- foot -8- inch -high glass barrier will be used to
surround the patio and will provide for sound - attenuation from the vehicular noise
from Newport Boulevard.
Area, Net Public. The total area used to serve customers, including customer sales and display areas, customer
seating areas, service counters, and service queue and waiting areas, but excluding restrooms and offices, kitchens,
storage and utility areas, and similar areas used by the employees of the establishment.

4. Facade Improvements - The applicant is proposing to improve the exterior
appearance of the building by removing the changeable sign marquee and
painted signs, and add new foam cornices, decorative metal trim and an antique
clock, new signage, new awnings, and a new entry canopy. The applicant is
proposing an architectural theme of a traditional Irish Pub.
Proposed plans have been included as Attachment No. PC2. The total NPA of the
establishment, including the interior dining room expansion and outdoor dining patio will
be 2,497 square feet. No changes to the existing hours of operation are proposed (7:00
a.m. to 2:00 a.m., daily). During the day, the applicant intends to promote food service
and operate as a restaurant establishment. In the late evening, the applicant intends to
conclude food service and continue operating primarily as a bar. To address the
increased parking demands of the establishment when operating as a bar and to
minimize impacts to the residential uses in the vicinity, the applicant is proposing to
close the outdoor dining patio at 11:00 p.m. No live entertainment or dancing is
proposed; however, amplified music will be provided through a digital music jukebox.
Background
On May 20, 1976, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No. 1792, which
established Marlarky's Irish Pub, and accepted an off -site parking agreement for a
portion of the required parking (see Off -Site Parking section for details).The use permit
specifically permitted the establishment of a restaurant facility with on -sale alcoholic
beverages. The hours of operation were limited to between 5:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. on
weekdays and between 12:00 noon and 2:00 a.m. on weekends and holidays. On
September 18, 1997, the Planning Commission approved an amendment to Use Permit
No. 1792, allowing a change in the hours of operation to between 7:00 a.m. and 2:00
a.m., daily. A condition of approval was also added clarifying that the approval is for the
continuation of a bar /lounge type facility as defined by Title 20 of the Municipal Code,
with the principal purpose for the sale and service of alcoholic beverages with incidental
food service.
DISCUSSION
Analysis
Use Classification
As stated above, when Use Permit No. 1792 was amended in 1997, a condition of
approval was added clarifying that the approval is for the continuation of a bar /lounge
type facility as defined by Title 20 of the Municipal Code. However, when the Zoning
Code was updated in October of 2010, the definition of Bar, Lounge, and Nightclub
changed and is now defined as an establishment that sells or serves alcoholic
beverages for consumption on the premises and is holding or applying for a public
premise license from the California State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control
152

(ABC)... Persons under 21 years of age are not allowed to enter and remain on the
premises. The applicant holds a Type 47 (On -Sale General- Eating Place) ABC license,
which is not considered a public premise license; however, the applicant intends to
continue operating as a bar in the late hours and as part of his security plan will not
allow persons under 21 years of age within the establishment. The applicant also
intends to operate the establishment as a restaurant during the day and intends to
significantly expand breakfast, lunch, and dinner food service for persons of all ages.
Therefore, the establishment's use classification will fall under the definition of Food
Service, Late Hours2.
Required Parking
A total of 47 parking spaces are proposed on -site and within the adjacent off -site
parking spaces. Pursuant to Section 20.40.060 of the Zoning Code, Food Service uses
are required to provide off - street parking within a range of one space for each 30 to 50
square feet of NPA, depending on the physical design, operational characteristics, and
location of the establishment. Use Permit No. 1792 (amended) established a parking
ratio of one space per 44 square feet of NPA during daytime hours when the
establishment operates as a restaurant, and a higher parking ratio of one space per 40
square feet of NPA during the evening when the establishment operates as a bar . Staff
believes continuing to require the same variable parking ratios is appropriate for the
following reasons:
During the day, the intensity of the operation as a restaurant is substantially less
than its nighttime operation as bar.
The additional sit -down dining opportunities provided with the new interior dining
room and outdoor dining patio are intended to expand food service, enhancing
the restaurant operation during the day.
The table and seating configuration will remain unchanged during the nighttime
operation when the establishment operates as a bar, maintaining a lower
occupant load in the sit -down dining areas.
2 Food Service, Late Hours. An establishment that sells food and beverages, including alcoholic beverages,
prepared for primary on -site consumption, and that has all of the following characteristics: 1) Establishment does
have late hours; 2) Customers order food and beverages from individual menus; 3) Food and beverages are served
at a fixed location (i.e., booth, counter, or table); and 4) Customers pay for food and beverages after service and /or
consumption.
Late Hour Operations. Facilities that provide service after 11:00 p.m.
3 The rationale behind the split parking ratio was also related to the fact that the previous operator of Malarky's Irish
Pub also owned and operated the Cannery Restaurant. The offices and storage space were jointly utilized to support
Malarky's Irish Pub and the Cannery restaurant operations, and therefore, additional parking (3 spaces) was required
during the day when the office space was in use. In the evening, the offices were not in use and the additional
parking could be utilized exclusively for Malarky's Irish Pub.

• The outdoor dining patio is proposed to close at 11:00 p.m., reducing the
capacity of the establishment when it operates primary as a bar.
The location of the establishment on the Balboa Peninsula affords the
opportunity for significant walk -in and bike -in trade.
• A 35 -space municipal parking lot is located directly across 30`h Street and
provides convenient parking should parking within the establishment's parking lot
be full. Parking is also free of charge after 6:00 p.m. within the municipal lot and
is in lower demand in the evenings when the intensity of the establishment is
likely to increase.
Section 20.40.040 of the Zoning Code also includes a provision that excludes a portion
of outdoor dining area (equal to 25 percent of the interior NPA) from required parking
calculations. Based on the proposed interior NPA of 1,715 square feet, 429 square feet
of outdoor dining is excluded from the parking calculations (1,715 sf x 0.25 = 428.75 sf).
Therefore, a total of 2,068 square feet of NPA (1,715 sf of interior NPA + 353 sf of
remaining outdoor dining) is utilized for the purposes of calculating required parking.
Based on the variable parking ratios discussed above, a total of 47 parking spaces will
be required during the day when the establishment operates as a restaurant and a total
of 43 spaces will be required during late hours (after 11:00 p.m.) when the
establishment operates as a bar. Table 1 below provides a parking breakdown and
comparison with the existing approval.

Off -Site Parking
Use Permit No. 1792 authorized the existing establishment to utilize off -site parking on
the 20- foot -wide easement to the north of the building and on the small parcel to the
west. A reciprocal easement agreement provides the establishment with exclusive
rights to the parking spaces located within the 20- foot -wide easement in perpetuity. The
small parcel to the west is owned by the same property owner of subject property,
William J. Cagney Trust, but was never merged into one parcel, thereby requiring an
off -site parking approval. The new parking lot located south of the building is also
owned by the same property owner; however, because the property owner has not
merged the parcels into one lot, the formal approval of off -site parking is required to
formally utilize the new parking lot. Pursuant to Section 20.40.100 of the Zoning Code,
off - street parking on a separate lot from the project site may be approved with a
conditional use permit. In addition the standard conditional use permit findings, the
Planning Commission must make the following findings below:
1. The parking facility is located within a convenient distance to the use it is intended to
serve;
2. On- street parking is not being counted towards meeting parking requirements:
3. Use of the parking facility will not create undue traffic hazards or impacts in the
surrounding area; and
4. The parking facility will be permanently available, marked, and maintained for the
use it is intended to serve.
Staff believes sufficient facts exist in support of each finding. The proposed off -site
parking lot is located adjacent to the subject property and the parking lot has been
designed as an extension of the existing parking lot for the establishment. The required
47 parking spaces are provided entirely within the parking lot. The Traffic Engineer has
reviewed and approved the configuration of the new parking lot extension and proposed
changes to the existing parking lot, and has determined that the parking lot design will
not create an undue traffic hazard in the surrounding area. The northerly driveway will
be modified for one -way ingress and the southerly driveway will provided for both
ingress and egress circulation. The applicant has entered into a 10 -year lease, with an
option to renew for an additional 5 years, for use of the three parcels and 20- foot -wide
easement (Attachment No. PC3- Basic Lease Provisions). Given that the William J.
Cagney Trust owns the subject building and associated off -site parking lots, and has
entered into a long -term lease with the applicant, staff believes the parking facility will
be remain available, marked, and maintained for the use of the subject establishment. A
condition of approval has also been added requiring the 47 spaces to be permanently
provided on -site or within the adjoining off -site lots.

Late -Hour Operations
Pursuant to Section 20.48.090 of the Zoning Code, the Planning Commission must
consider the following potential impacts upon adjacent or nearby uses when reviewing
an application to allow late -hour operations:
1. Noise from music, dancing, and voices associated with allowed outdoor uses and
activities;
2. High levels of lighting and illumination;
3. Increased pedestrian and vehicular traffic activity during late and early morning
hours;
4. Increased trash and recycling collection activities;
5. Occupancy loads of the use; and
6. Any other factors that may affect adjacent or nearby uses.
The nearest residential uses are located to the west on 30th Street, across from the
loading dock of the adjacent shopping center. The nearest dwelling is located
approximately 130 feet from the closest extent of the new parking lot boundaries and
approximately 220 feet from the building itself. The adjacent shopping center building
and an 8- foot -high block wall provides a screening and noise buffer from the project
site. The applicant has also planted a row of bamboo trees along the block wall to help
visually screen the establishment.
The applicant is not proposing any live entertainment or dancing; however, amplified
music through the use of a jukebox is currently used. A condition of approval has been
included requiring the exterior doors and windows to be maintained in the closed
position at all times, except for the ingress and egress purposes. Significant noise
impacts from the proposed outdoor dining patio are not anticipated given its location on
the north side of the building, its distance of approximately 300 feet from the nearest
residential dwelling, and the shielding by the existing shopping center building. The
outdoor dining patio is also surrounded by a 9- foot -8- inch -high glass barrier that should
help attenuate sound and will be completely closed by 11:00 p.m. No new lighting is
proposed with the exception of illumination for the new signage and the outdoor patio.
Existing exterior lighting exists only to illuminate the parking lot.
Malarky's Irish Pub is an existing establishment that currently operates as a bar until
2:00 a.m. Although the outdoor dining patio is proposed to close at 11:00 p.m., the
interior dining expansion is expected to double the existing interior occupant load of 91
persons. The proposed plans indicate an interior occupant load of 198 persons;
however, preliminary review by the Building Department reveals that the figure will likely
S0
Malarky's Irish Pub
March 3, 2011
Page 9
be reduced by approximately 20 -30 persons after the plans are reviewed for Code
compliance during building plan check. Given the increased occupancy, increased
pedestrian and vehicular activity is expected during late and early morning hours. This
is a primary concern for the residential neighbors on 30th Street due to the potential for
patrons to loiter in the parking lot and adjacent streets, intoxicated patrons leaving the
establishment, and noise from patrons walking home. The applicant has submitted a
detailed security plan for consideration that outlines their plan for minimizing alcohol -
related problems and crowd management (Attachment No. PC4). Should the Planning
Commission approve all or any part of the conditional use permit request, the applicant
will be required to obtain an Operator License from the Police Department. The
Operator License will provide for enhanced control of noise, loitering, litter, disorderly
conduct, parking /circulation, and other potential disturbances resulting from the
establishment, and will provide the Police Department with means to modify, suspend,
or revoke the operator's ability to maintain late -hour operations.
A temporary increase in traffic during late and early morning hours on weekends is also
expected on 30th Street when the establishment closes. Left -turn movements out of the
parking lot and northbound on Newport Boulevard are prohibited, and u -turns from the
southbound left turn pocket on Newport Boulevard are also prohibited; therefore,
patrons leaving the establishment and wanting to travel northbound out of the Peninsula
are expected to either: 1) travel south on Newport Boulevard to 28th Street, where they
can make two quick left -turns onto northbound Newport Boulevard; or 2) travel down
30th Street and make a right turn northbound on Balboa Boulevard. Traffic noise
associated with the later option may be audible to the residents on 30th Street.
Unfortunately, after discussing the concern with Traffic Engineering and reviewing the
roadway geometrics, modifying the striping within Newport Boulevard to allow the left -
turn movement will not be possible.
The trash enclosure is not currently provided on -site; however, the applicant is
proposing to construct a new enclosure in the northwest corner of the parking lot. The
design and area of the enclosure is proposed to comply with the design requirements of
the Zoning Code.
Police Department Concerns
The Newport Beach Police Department provided staff a memorandum expressing
concerns with the applicant's request (Attachment No. PC5). The Police Department is
concerned that the increased occupant load of the establishment will result in an
increase in police related activities and calls for police services. The resources required
to address these potential events would detract from their ability to provide police
services to other areas of the community. The project is located in a Police Reporting
District (RD15) that is the most concentrated for retail alcohol establishments in the City
and has a crime rate of 483.95 percent above the Citywide RD average. For these
reasons, the Police Department is recommending that the outdoor dining area close at
57
Malarky's Irish Pub
March 3, 2011
Page 10
10:00 p.m. and that the Planning Commission deny the applicant's request for the
interior expansion.
Should the Planning Commission approve the applicant's request, the Police
Department has recommended several conditions of approval to regulate and control
potential nuisances that the establishment may create. The Police Department has also
indicated that they would issue the initial Operator License based on the decision of the
Planning Commission.
Conditional Use Permit Findings
Pursuant to Section 20.52.020.E of the Zoning Code, the Planning Commission must
make the following findings in order to approve a conditional use permit:
1. The use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable Specific Plan;
2. The use is allowed within the applicable zoning district and complies with all other
applicable provisions of this Zoning Code and the Municipal Code;
3. The design, location, size, operating characteristics of the use are compatible with
the allowed uses in the vicinity;
4. The site is physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, operating
characteristics, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle (e.g., fire and
medical) access and public services and utilities; and
5. Operation of the use at the location proposed would not be detrimental to the
harmonious and orderly growth of the City, or endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise
constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general
welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the proposed use.
Staff believes sufficient facts exist in support of each finding. The operation of a Food
Service, Late Hours use, with alcoholic beverages, is consistent with the purpose and
intent of the Neighborhood Commercial (CN) land use designation of the General Plan
and Commercial Neighborhood (CN) Zoning District. The CN designation and district
are intended to provide for a limited range of retail and service uses developed in one or
more distinct centers oriented primarily to serve the needs and maintain compatibility
with the residential uses in the area. Food Service uses can be expected to be found in
this area and similar locations and are complementary to the surrounding commercial
and residential uses.
As conditioned, the proposed project will comply with Zoning Code standards for eating
and drinking establishments and solid waste storage, including the installation of a
grease interceptor. The recent parking lots improvements and proposed facade
improvements will have a positive impact on the overall aesthetics and economic health
ON
Malarky's Irish Pub
March 3, 2011
Page 11
of the community, and will hopefully promote further revitalization of the other
commercial properties located along Newport Boulevard.
The project has been reviewed and conditioned to ensure that potential conflicts with
the surrounding land uses are minimized to the extent possible to maintain a healthy
environment for both residents and businesses. Adequate parking will be provided for
the proposed operation at all times of the day, with a surplus of parking provided during
late hours. The proposed outdoor dining patio will close by 11:00 p.m., once full meal
service has concluded. The location and design of the outdoor dining patio should buffer
the nearby residential uses from any potential noise disturbances when the outdoor
patio is operational. To ensure that the interior expansion of the establishment does not
create a detrimental impact during late hours, the operator will be required to secure an
Operator License and will be required to take reasonable steps to discourage and
correct objectionable conditions that constitute a nuisance to areas surrounding the
establishment and adjacent properties during business hours. Should the operator be
unable to abide by the conditions of approval or prevent objectionable conditions from
occurring, the Police Department will have the authority to modify, suspend, or revoke
the operator's ability to maintain late -hour operations.
Comprehensive Sign Program
The applicant is proposing a total of five walls signs, eight awning signs, and one
projecting sign. Pursuant to Section 20.42.120 of the Zoning Code, approval of a
Comprehensive Sign Program is required whenever 3 or more signs are proposed for a
single- tenant development. The purpose of a sign program is to integrate all of a
project's signs, including a project identification sign, with the overall site design and the
structure's design into a unified architectural statement. It is also intended to provide
flexibility in the application of the City's sign regulations to projects that have multiple
signs when it can be shown that the proposed program achieves the purposes of the
City's sign ordinance.
The applicant is proposing to renovate the exterior appearance of the building in the
architectural theme of a traditional Irish pub (Attachment No. PC6- Examples). The
applicant's proposed plans include a Comprehensive Sign Program that defines the
size, number, and design of all signage for the development (Attachment No. PC2 —
Sheets A3.1 and A3.2). Staff has also prepared a Sign Program Matrix to supplement
the plans and to specifically define the permitted sign standards for this project (Exhibit
B of Attachment No. PC1). The Sign Program proposes the following deviations from
the City's sign code regulations:
Number of Signs — Maximum of one sign allowed per primary and secondary
building frontage. The proposed signage includes three wall signs, four awning
signs, and one projecting sign on the primary frontage. The secondary frontages
include one wall sign and two awnings signs.
159
Malarky's Irish Pub
March 3, 2011
Page 12
Wall Signs (Separation) — Signs located on adjacent walls on the same building
shall be separated by a minimum of 30 feet measured along the exterior walls of
the building. The proposed wall signs maintain a separation as close as 18.5
feet.
Wall Signs (Centering) - Signs shall be located within the middle 50 percent of
the building frontage. The proposed wall signs on the primary frontage are
equally spaced from each other and are located within the middle 75 percent of
the building frontage. The signs on the secondary frontages are located towards
the front corner of the building closest to Newport Boulevard.
The sign code normally allows one wall sign up to 75 square feet in area on the primary
frontage; however, due to the existing tower element on the building that divides the
front facade, one large wall sign cannot be achieved. Breaking up the signage into three
separate smaller wall signs allows for a more aesthetically pleasing orientation of
signage and achieves the applicant's design theme of a traditional Irish pub. The
projecting sign and awning signs are minor and incidental the wall signage. Combined,
the proposed signage does not exceed the allowable sign area for each frontage. Also,
given the orientation of the building, staff believes the deviations in the wall signs
separation and centering are merited to allow the applicant more effective sign
placement. Allowing the signs on the on the secondary frontages to be located towards
the front corner of the building allows for increased sign visibility for motorists driving
along Newport Boulevard.
Pursuant to Section 20.42.120.E, a Comprehensive Sign Program shall comply with a
number of standards. Staff believes sufficient facts exist in support each standard and
has included such facts in the attached draft resolution.
Correspondence
The applicant has provided various letters in support of the project. The letters have
been included at Attachment No. PC7.
Environmental Review
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15301, of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines - Class 1 (Existing Facilities). This
exemption authorizes additions to existing structures of up to 10,000 square feet. The
proposed project consists of a 565- square -foot interior dining room expansion and the
construction of a new 782 - square -foot outdoor dining patio, and therefore, qualifies
under this exemption.

We will have a security staff member at each door from 9PM till close.
On any given night we will have one security person for every 50 persons in the building. In addition to
having security staff on duty we will also have a 16 camera video surveillance system that cover most
parts of the interior and some of the exterior including queuing and designated smoking areas. In a case
where our surveillance can be helpful we will be more than willing to turn over any video footage we
may have to Newport Police department.
Sunday, Monday, Wednesday
1 -2 Security Staff members at 913M, an additional 1 to 2 at 1oPM amount may vary depending
on the number of guests
Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
2 Security staff members at 913M, an additional 2 to 3 at 10PM
We will increase security staff to accommodate and account for any national holidays, long weekends,
etc. As we understand that those particular days increase business.
SECURITY PERSONNEL UNIFORMS
All security personnel will be required to wear a Malarky's security uniform. The Malarky's Irish Pub will
provide the following items to complete the uniforms.
An identifying tag with SECURITY etched into it to help identify them as security personnel
Flashlights, digital counters, black lights for the doors, current ID books, 30x Magnifying loop, Kenwood
2 way radios with Pryme noise reduction acoustic ear pieces
In addition, Security personnel will be required to carry current guard cards and ID on them at all times.
CONTROL AND CLEARANCE OF PARKING LOT /SIDEWARLD /QUEUING AREA
When the first two security personnel have clocked in one will be instructed to do a physical count to
establish our current head count. Once the first security member has completed a count they are to set
both counters to our current head count. From this point anyone entering or exiting will be accounted
for by communicating via radio.
'�
Once we have reached capacity and there is need for a queue, all guests will be asked from the front
entrance only. The line will form on the front side of the property and run in line with our property as to
not encroach on the public sidewalk. Anyone who wishes to smoke will be asked to smoke on the South
side of building at which time the South side door will be for exit only and smoking. When a guest steps
outside to smoke they receive a stamp and will still be included into capacity count. If a person leaves
from the South side of the building, the security member stationed at that door will radio to the person
stationed on the Front door the amount of people exiting. The security staff member on the Front door
will do the same and also radio the amount of people entering to help insure an accurate count at both
doors. Security personnel will be in constant communication with each other and managers throughout
the night.
Malarky's Irish Pub Security personnel will be required to perform periodic patrols of the immediate
parking lot to ensure no loitering littering, graffiti or illegal consumption of alcohol or narcotics. If any
persons are observed partaking in any illegal activities they will be asked to cease and desist and the
manager on duty will be notified and in turn will notify the Newport police department.
Upon closing, 3 of the Malarky's security personnel will patrol the parking lot in our immediate area to
ensure safe departure of Malarky's guest and pedestrians. Once the parking lot is clear a member of the
Malarky's security staff will be required to sweep the immediate area of the business to make it is free
of trash cigarette butts and debris that any have accumulated due to business operations.
INCIDENTS INVOLVING FORCE
Malarky's Irish Pub has a strict no hands on policy. We have instructed all personnel to avoid aggressive
or forceful confrontation with a potentially aggressive guest. We encourage a verbal and diplomatic
resolution to a problem guest. We only condone reasonable force to subdue an aggressive guest if
they're a direct threat to themselves, another guest or other member of Malarky's personnel.
If force is required in any way security personnel are required to follow the strict procedures that have
been set forth and signed by each security staff member established by the Malarky's Irish Pub. These
procedures include notifying Newport Police Department as soon as it is safe or situation allows
INTOXICATED PERSONS
Once an over intoxicated guest has been identified, the security member will notify the manager. At that
point all serving staff will be notified that the person in question will no longer be served alcohol. If the
person in question is with a group of people the manager and a member of the security staff will
approach one of his /her sober friends to possible assist in getting the person in question an alternative
form of transportation home. As according to California law it is illegal to serve or have a person who is
obviously intoxicated in your establishment.
715
If the person in question is alone a manager accompanied by a security staff member will approach the
guest and inform them that we will no longer by law be allowed to serve them alcohol. At which point
the manager will offer an alternative mean of transportation i.e. Taxi or a friend to pick them up. If the
person refuses and insists on driving the security staff member will then keep the person in a question
engaged conversation while the Malarky's manager on duty will call Newport Police Department and
no them of the situation providing them with any pertinent information.
It is Malarky's policy to assist an intoxicated person in finding an alternate means of transportation
home other than driving.
VERIFYING AGE /CHECKING IDENTIFICATION
When greeting customers, Security personnel will be responsible for making sure that the guest entering
is of age, has a current California accepted bona -feed ID. The ID should be current and offer a physical
description, have a photo and show date of birth to be 21yrs of age or older. If the security member

CONCLUSION
We at the Malarky's Irish Pub understand the importance of being proactive when it comes to security
70
situations. It is important to be firm and impartial. We also stress to our security staff to stick to the
facts when dealing with a situation. Opinions and personal feeling may not and cannot be a part of
decision making when it comes to the safety and control of the guests. We also stress the importance of
communication between servers security and managers. That is why whenever we have security staffs
on duty all security and managers will be wearing a radio to help aid in communication and
professionalism. We have a managers involved in any security related issue whenever possible. All
security personnel are instructed never to handle a situation by themselves. We take a great pride in
having a knowledgeable friendly and professional security staff.
We at the Malarky's Irish Pub also understand the importance of police involvement in altercations or
other specific security issues. It is important to be willing to work with the Newport Police Department
to help us insure the safety of our guest and pedestrian walking by our establishment. We encourage
notes comments and support of the Newport Police Department.

Police Department
Memorandum
December 9, 2010
TO: Jaime Murillo, Associate Planner
FROM: Detective Bryan Moore
SUBJECT: Malarky's Irish Pub, 3011 Newport Boulevard, Use Permit No.
2010 -039, (PA2010 -172).
At your request, the police department has reviewed the project application for
Malarky's Irish Pub, located at 3011 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach. The
applicant requests to expand the existing restaurant and bar. The expansion
includes remodeling the interior of the facility to create a new seating area and to
provide ADA compliant restrooms. The interior net public area (NPA) is
proposed to increase by 649 square feet. A new 796 square foot outdoor patio is
also proposed to be constructed. Overall, the facility will have a total NPA of
2,735 square feet. In addition, the applicant is proposing to renovate the exterior
of the facility including the installation of new signs, awnings and an entry
canopy. Proposed hours of operation are 7:30 a.m. to 2:00 a.m.
The applicant will be proposing valet parking on the weekends to accommodate
the peak parking demand of 57 spaces. It is also the applicant's intent to utilize
the valet to mitigate noise and prevent loitering in the adjacent parking lot. A
valet parking management plan is currently under preparation.
The applicant currently holds a Type 47 (On Sale General — Eating Place) "
license, in good standing, with the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
I have included a report by Crime Analyst Paul Salenko that provides detailed
statistical information related to calls for service in and around the applicant's
place of business. This report indicates that this new location is within an area
where the number of crimes is at least 75% higher than the average of all
reporting districts in the City. This location is also within an RD that is over the
Orange County per capita of ABC licenses.
Applicant History
The applicant, Mario Marovic, is a resident of Corona del Mar and has been the
principle owner /operator of Malarky's Irish Pub since April of 2010.
21
Malarky's
UP No. 2010 -039
The Marovic family has been in the restaurant business since 1973 with Mario
first acquiring ownership in 1998. Mario Marovic also owns several other
residential and commercial properties in Newport Beach, including the District
Lounge and the Landmark Steakhouse.
Morovic intends on maintaining Malarky's as a traditional Irish pub; however, he
proposes several renovations that will aesthetically improve the exterior and
interior of the restaurant. Marovic envisions that the expanded interior / patio will
be utilized for dining where breakfast, lunch and dinner will be served 7 days a
week. Additionally, Marovic plans on providing an upscale menu of traditional
Irish cuisine that will enhance the overall quality of the restaurant.
Marovic also acknowledges that after 10:00 p.m. the establishment will primarily
be utilized as a bar; however, he does wish to make a late night menu available
until close.

Recommendations
The proposed location for Malarky's Irish Pub is located in RD (reporting district)
15 which is the most concentrated area for retail alcohol establishments in
Newport Beach (1 ABC license for every 38 residents). Additionally, this RD had
a total of 946 reported crimes as compared to a City wide reporting district
average of 162 reported crimes (483.95 % above the City wide RD average).
These statistics would tend to indicate that there is a strong correlation between
the over - concentration of ABC establishments and police related activity.
Additionally, Malarky's Irish Pub has traditionally operated primarily as a bar
between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. Per the applicant's proposal, this
will remain the same; however, an outdoor patio will be added and the interior
square footage will increase which will raise the total occupancy of the
establishment. Despite the best operator's intentions, the Police Department
believes that this change will have a significant impact on noise with regard to the
nearby residential areas.
2
22
Malarky's
UP No. 2010 -039
We are also projecting that the applicant's proposal will result in an increase in
police related activities and calls for police services. The resources required to
address these events would detract from our ability to provide police services to
the other areas of the community; therefore, we are recommending against the
expansion of the interior of Malarky's Irish Pub.
The Police Department is not opposed to the addition of an outdoor patio;
however, we would recommend that the outdoor patio close at 10:00 p.m., daily.
We feel that these recommended hours would limit the effects that noise will
have on the neighboring residential areas.
Should this application approved, the Police Department recommends the
following conditions:
Signs and Displays
Any signs or displays would need to conform to City requirements. There shall
be no exterior advertising or signs of any kind or type, including advertising
directed to the exterior from within, promoting or indicating the availability of
alcoholic beverages. Interior displays of alcoholic beverages or signs, which are
clearly visible to the exterior, shall constitute a violation of this condition.
Hours of Operation
The current hours of operation are from 7:30 a.m. until 2:00 a.m.
The Police Department recommends that the outdoor patio close at 10:00 p.m.,
daily.
Security
The applicant shall provide licensed security personnel. A comprehensive
security plan for the permitted uses shall be submitted for review and approval by
the Newport Beach Police Department. The procedures included in the plan and
any recommendations made by the Police Department shall be implemented and
adhered to for the life of the use permit.
Employee Training
Require all owners, managers, and employees selling alcoholic beverages to
undergo and successfully complete a certified training program in responsible
methods and skills for serving and selling alcoholic beverages.

Malarky's
UP No. 2010 -039
Additional Comments
For the purposes of this application, staff may also want to consider establishing
conditions that would require a special event permit. A special event permit may
be required for any event or promotional activity outside the normal operational
characteristics of the proposed operation. For example, events likely to attract
large crowds, events for which an admission fee is charged, events that include
any form of contract promoters, or any other activities as specified in the Newport
Beach Municipal Code to require such permits.
Other Recommended Conditions
In addition, the Police Department has determined that the following conditions
would be appropriate for the conditional use permit for the business:
Approval does not permit the premises to operate as a bar, tavern,
cocktail lounge or nightclub as defined by the Newport Beach Municipal
Code, unless the planning commission first approves a use permit.
2. No alcoholic beverages shall be consumed on any property adjacent the
licensed premises under the control of the licensee.
3. No "happy hour" type of reduced price alcoholic beverage promotion shall
be allowed except when offered in conjunction with food ordered from the
full service menu. There shall be no reduced price alcoholic beverage
promotion after 9 p.m.
4. Petitioner shall not share any profits or pay any percentage or commission
to a promoter or any other person based upon monies collected as a door
charge, cover charge, or any other form of admission charge, including
minimum drink orders or the sale of drinks.
5. The quarterly gross sales of alcoholic beverages shall not exceed the
gross sales of food during the same period. The licensee shall at all times
maintain records, which reflect separately the gross sales of food and the
gross sales of alcoholic beverages of the licensed business. These
records shall be kept no less frequently than on a quarterly basis and shall
be made available to the police department on demand.
6. There shall be no on -site radio, television, video, film or other electronic
media broadcasts, including recordings to be broadcasted at a later time,
which include the service of alcoholic beverages, without first obtaining an
approved special event permit issued by the City of Newport Beach.
7. There shall be no live entertainment allowed on the premises.
8. There shall be no dancing allowed on the premises.
4 24
Malarky's
UP No. 2010 -039
9. No games or contests requiring or involving the consumption of alcoholic
beverages shall be permitted.
10. Food service from the regular menu must be available to patrons until
close.
11. Strict adherence to maximum occupancy limits is required.

The application consists of a conditional use permit request to expand an existing
eating and drinking establishment and to allow for the use of off -site parking. The
application also includes a request for a comprehensive sign program to allow more
than three signs on a single- tenant building.
Jaime Murillo, Associate Planner, gave a brief overview of the staff report and
mentioned the following:
Staff was originally in support of the proposed project, including the expansion of the
interior dining area. Staff believed that the Operator License would provide the Police
Department with an effective tool to regulate the late hour operations; however, after
receiving additional information from the Police Department, staff reconsidered the
recommendation and recommended that the Planning Commission deny the interior
dining room expansion and only approve the other dining area. Even with the
requirement to secure an Operator License, negative impacts resulting from the large
influx of patrons leaving the establishment and adjacent establishments cannot be
prevented as they are outside the control of the Operator and on -site operations.
Some of the negative impacts cited were as follows:
• Taxi cabs and cars blocking circulation upon closing.
Jay walking as a result of patrons exiting the restaurant.
Patrons loitering in the surrounding neighborhood and congregating in the
late hours.
The Planning Commission discussed the following issues:
• Sprinkler requirements.
• Interior re -model without adding floor area.
• Hours of alcohol service.
• Indoor occupancy capacity of 166 versus 150 or less.
• Availability of limited food menu for patrons of the late night hours.
Applicant, Mario Marovic, gave a power point presentation and presented letters in
support of Malarky's to the Commissioners. The following was discussed:
• Exterior and interior improvements to the building.
• Security is certified and on -site until 3:00 a.m.
• Would like the bathroom to be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
compliant.
• Fixed dining to attract sophisticated clientele.

• There is an overconcentration of drinking establishments.
• There is one alcohol license per every thirty -eight residents in District 15,
which has the highest crime rate in the City.
• There are fights and other objectionable behavior.
• Concerned with people being intoxicated and as a result being a nuisance in
surrounding neighborhoods.
Applicant responded to photos stating that the incident with the hit and run was not a
patron of Malarky's.
An additional general discussion ensued.
Motion made by Commissioner Hillgren and seconded by Commissioner Hawkins, to
adopt a resolution approving Use Permit No. UP2010 -039 and Comprehensive Sign
Program with the addition of the following conditions to the resolution:
• To limit the late -hour disturbances that the expanded dining area may create
through increased occupancy, the occupancy load of the interior of the
establishment has been limited to a maximum of 150 persons between the
hours of 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.
Page 7 of 9
NEWPORT BEACH PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES 03/03/2011
• The operation of the establishment shall be reviewed by the Planning
Commission one year from the date the certificate of occupancy is issued for
the interior expansion to ensure the increased occupancy has not resulted in
detrimental impacts. The Deputy Community Development Director may
initiate a review earlier than one year if detrimental impacts are identified.
• Upon vesting of the rights authorized by this Conditional Use Permit No.

Mr. Robert Hawkins, Chairman

RE: Malarky's Irish pub
Dear Mr. Hawkins:
It is with great pleasure that the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce writes a letter of
support for the proposed remodel of Malarky's Irish Pub located at 3011 Newport Blvd.,
Newport Beach, CA 92663. The Chamber has always supported investment in our
community and this remodel of a well established Restaurant is the right project at the
right time.
The owner, Mr. Mario Marovic has a well established record of management in our
community as owner of the Landmark Steak House in Corona del Mar since 2004 and the
District Bar on the peninsula since 2006. Mr. Marovie has proven to be a responsible
restaurant owner with no record of ABC violations or complaints from any of his
neighbors.
Malarky's Irish Pub has been a fixture in our community for many years. The proposal
adds a quaint outdoor patio area for our residents and visitors to enjoy. The location of
the new patio is shielded by surrounding buildings so as to not impede on the quiet
enjoyment of the neighbors. With the investment of nearly half million dollars adding a
mere 500 square feet of public area including a total rehabilitation of both men's and
women's bathrooms along with additional diming areas, this project will be a welcome
enhancement to the area for years to come adding additional sales tax component to the
City.
The project is also supported by the development of additional parking in the adjacent lot
to the south and a reconfiguration and easement agreement from the adjacent property
owner to the north making this project adequately parked.

Letter of Recommendation
Dear Newport Beach Planning Department:
My name is Greg Mayes. I retired last December as a Police Captain from the Fullerton Police
Department after almost 30 years of service. During my last few years I was responsible for
coordinating police /community /business interaction as it related specifically to Downtown
Fullerton. Our Downtown had grown rapidly and many issues arose that challenged the City's
ability to balance public safety and perception, with the prosperity of our diverse late
night entertainment venues.
My practice was always one of seeking the cooperation and assistance of our Downtown business
community in the development of comprehensive strategies.to minimize adverse impacts to
public safety while fostering a prosperous late night business environment. This process is
difficult and requires supportive and participatory business owner /operators. The success of
any police /community effort relies upon the character and commitment of its City, community
and business leaders; Mario Marovic is such a leader.
In 2008 the Fullerton Downtown had several problem establishments including the business
known as Rock -n -Taco. This location was one of the focal points for disorder in the Downtown.
In late 2008 Mr. Marovic began negotiations to purchase the business. I had not met Mario
prior to becoming aware of his intentions to buy the Rock -n -Taco. Mario and I spoke on
several occasions during his negotiations. I placed considerable demands upon him during my
discussions and advised him he would be, "under the microscope." He said he understood the
concept of consequences. Mario promised a well - managed, well- maintained business with a menu
suitable for upscale dining. He advised me he would maintain security during late night hours
and that he hoped to become the role -model for restaurant /lounges in the Downtown. He
promised to communicate openly and honestly with other community, business and city leaders.
The Matador opened its doors in early 2009 and has been a cornerstone for stability in the
Downtown ever since. Mario has lived up to his promises and exceeded expectations both
personally and professionally in the Downtown business community. Mario has spearheaded
Downtown business efforts in the form of restaurateur collaborations, business /community
meetings and city /business efforts. He has been a significant contributor to local charity
efforts including the Fullerton Boys & Girls Clubs. He has opened The Matador to fund raising
events and used the business as a gathering place for entities such as the Fullerton Chamber
of Commerce. Under the oversight of Mario, The Matador has become a signature location in
Fullerton's late night entertainment district; Mario has worked, and continues to work, with
the Police Department to cooperatively identify issues and form resolutions. Mario is a
trusted resource within the community and especially the Fullerton Downtown area.
I cannot compare apples to oranges and do not have the same intimate knowledge of Newport
Beach late night venues as I do of Fullerton's Downtown. I can however attest to Mario's
character and commitment as it relates to the manner in which he oversees his businesses. His
management of The Matador restaurant has brought to the City of Fullerton an enjoyable
daytime restaurant, tasteful dining establishment and safe late night gathering place. I hope
he is afforded the opportunity to do the same in Newport Beach.
With best regards,
Greg Mayes

To Whom It May Concern:
I am a 35 year resident of the Balboa Peninsula and patron of the Malarky's Irish Pub. I have
gotten to know Mr. Marovic very well since he acquired the business last April. Since Mr. Marovic took
over operations at Malarky's, I immediately noticed many positive changes at the business. Some of the
changes that took place immediately after Mr. Marovic acquired the business are:
• Implemented an employee training program;
• Improved the menu;
• Hired a full time manager;
• Purchased all new glass and dishware;
• Increased security in the evenings;
• Completed a lot of past due repairs that the previous owner neglected;
Mr. Marovic has also made numerous changes to the exterior of the building, improving its appearance
and curb appeal. The entire neighborhood looks better with his outdoor improvements, from the chain
link fenced off dirt lot converted to a cleanly paved parking area and the removal of the so- called "weed
gardens" on the front of the building into the new streamlined, custom -built flower boxes. Even a simple
fresh coat of paint has changed the building tremendously and given it (and the surrounding area) new
life.
The Malarky's CUP application is particularly important to me because of my very close proximity to the
building; I live a block away. I cannot see that his further renovations would harm the community in any
way, only continue to improve our neighborhood. I want to express my support for the CUP application
as submitted, with existing hours of operation. I am a very close neighbor and am not affected now, and
don't think it W uI e anything bul-ryore success and beneficial to his closest neighbors.

RE: Malm•ky's Irish Pub
To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing this letter for the purpose of expressing my support and excitement regarding the proposed
improvements to Malarky's Irish Pub, located at 3011 Newport Boulevard in the city of Newport Beach.
I reside at 2824 Newport Blvd, very close to the Malarky's Irish Pub. I was happy to hear that the proposed
improvements to this establishment would include a new upgraded sealing area with a fireplace, new
restrooms and an outdoor patio for diners. As a real estate investor, I am constantly looking for new and
interesting places to entertain clients while conducting business. I first started frequenting Malary's about
fifieen years ago, However, I rarely frequented Malarky's in the past few years because of its deteriorating
condition. Since, Mr. Marovic acquired Malarky's last April it has noticeably improved. Hecleaned up the
dirt lot next to the restaurant and put in a new parking lot. The dirt Im was an eye sore for a long time and
I'm happy that be cleaned that up.
With the proposed new dining area, . outdoor patio and restrooms the improved Malarky's will definitely be a
destination for my family, friends and clients. I look forward to being able to have dinner and drinks at the
new Malarky's and enjoying my short walk hone.
Please keep me updated on any significant changes or revisions to [lie submitted CUP application or plans.
My friends, family and neighbors intend to support the project as submitted. Should you have any questions
or concerns, please feel free to contact me.

To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing this letter for the purpose of expressing my complete support regarding the proposed
improvements to Malarky's Irish Pub, located at 3011 Newport Boulevard in the city of Newport Beach.
Lam a Newport Beach resident for over 25 yeaes, I live at 3800 Channel Place.
My 2" Home /Studio, Showin Galleries & Gardens is located directly across the street from Malarky's
Irish Pub off the Newport Beach Peninsula at 408 31" Street. I am one of the closest properties across the
street from Malarky's Irish Pub.
I first met Mr. Marovic when he acquired the business last April. He was kind enough to knock on my
door and introduce himself as the new owner of Malarky's Irish Pub. Mr. Marovic has been very open
about his plans and even asked me for any input that I may have regarding his project.
I was shocked to hear that Mr. Marovic didn't have complete support of the neighborhood. Especially
since acquiring the Malarky's location, Mr. Marovic has already done more to beautify the neighborhood
than any other neighbor in close proximity. For example, he took the vacant lot that became a weed
garden surrounded by a chain link fence and transformed it into one of the most beautiful parking lots in the
entire city.
Since Mr. Marovic acquired Malarky's I have noticed amajor improvement to the food and service. I
went from rarely frequenting Malarky's for lunch and dinner to eating at the establishment quite often.
The new dining area, outdoor patio and restrooms will allow Malarky's to further improve its food and
service by attracting a more desirable demographic. I look forward to being able to have dinner and
drinks at the new Malarky's with my family, friends and business clientele.
Please keep me updated on any significant changes or revisions to the submitted CUP application or plans..
My friends, family and neighbors intend to support the project as submitted! Should you have any
questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at 949 - 929 -2136.

Re: Malarky's Restaurant
To Whom It May Concern;
I have lived and worked in the city of Newport Beach for over thirty years. I
bought my first home in 1986, which I still own and rent while maintaining my
primary residence also in the city. The main reason I invested in the city of
Newport Beach was because of its beauty and status. These investments have
held their own in this troublesome market. And I believe it is because the way
this city maintains a high level of standards.
When I was asked by Mario Marovic, the new owner of Malarky's Irish Pub to
write a letter on his behalf I was shocked to hear their was some reluctance by
the city to have him make improvements to the property, while maintaining the
existing hours of operation. For years I have driven by Malarky's and seen old
washed out green awnings and a weed covered empty lot next door. I do know
quite a bit about the property because at one time I approached the previous
owner about buying the property. The dilapidated lot next door has been sitting
empty for almost 17 years now. And now it is so nice to see that it has finally
been landscaped and set up for parking.
Malarkys has been a local landmark for over 30 years now and any upgrades to
this facility are long over due. Mario Marovic is a "get it done" type of
businessman who has already proved with his other two businesses in the city
that he uses sound judgment when it comes to improving property's. Landmark
Steakhouse and The District Lounge are excellent examples of how simple
upgrades can turn an average establishment into a profitable, destination "Hot
Spot" that benefit all involved.

The fact that Mario is willing to put forth his own effort and capital to make these
improvements to another restaurant in this city, to me seems that he is dedicated
to making this a better city to live and work in. These improvements will benefit
the city by increasing revenues and the new menu and chef that Mario has
provided at Malarky's Restaurant gives all of us another option for dinner.
As a multiple home owner and past restaurant owner in the City of Newport
Beach, I would trust this very successful businessman and allow him to make
these necessary changes and improve another existing establishment in the City
of Newport Beach.

Re: CUP Application for Malarky's Irish Pub, located at 3011 Newport Boulevard
To Whom it may concern,
I reside on the Newport Beach Peninsula. I had an opportunity to review the CUP
application and plans submitted for the Malarky's Irish Pub. I am in complete
support of the proposed application and plans.
I am areal estate broker for Marcus & Millichap. I entertain clients while
conducting business regularly in the City of Newport Beach. I have personally
listed and sold multiple commercial properties in Newport Beach and other
coastal Orange County cities. The proposed improvements to the Malarky's Irish
Pub will make Malarky's a desirable place for me to frequent for both business
and pleasure. The new dining area, outdoor patio and restrooms will allow
Malarky's to improve its target demographic and compete with other top tier
venues. I am very pleased with the improvements that have been done already to
the adjacent parking lot, and I look forward to the positive impact that the new
improvements to Malarky's will have on the Newport Beach Peninsula.
Please keep me updated on any significant changes or revisions to the submitted
CUP application or plans. My friends and neighbors intend to support the project
as submitted. Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to

My name is Gregory Ozimec. I am a 20 -year Newport Beach resident and home owner,

I am very happy with the changes that have already taken place, especially the new paint
job, fagade improvements and new parking lot. I have reviewed the blueprints for
Malarky's planned new restrooms and dining area, and I am in complete support of the
Malarky's Irish Pub's further improvements, as are many of my friends and neighbors.
I often times ride my bicycle to Malarky's to meet friends for dinner and drinks, and feel
that the additional parking recently provided by Malarky's amply supports the planned
new dining room. We are looking forward to the new improved Malarky's.
By approving the Malarky's CUP application the city will allow Malarky's to create a
facility that will cater to an upscale demographic. Please keep me informed of any
substantial changed to the proposed CUP application. I intend to support the proposed
plans and use as submitted.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing this letter for the purpose of expressing my support for the proposed CUP application for
Malarky's Irish Pub, at 3011 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach.
I recently moved to Newport Beach from Indiana and have been to Malarky's quite a few times. It reminds
me, a lot, of places back home and I feel it's a perfect spot for the proposed plans. I was informed of the
new design by colleagues of mine and think they would be able to compete well with other area venues. I
find that in my recent move here, there aren't as many true to form outdoor dining places as I would've
expected. And these plans would allow for Malarky's to hold more people both indoors and out, whether it
be for dining or night life.
I am completely in support of the project as submitted. 'Should you have any questions or concerns, please
feel free to contact me.

I am a current resident of Balboa Peninsula and a local restaurant patron. Recently, Malarky's, located a
block from my house, dramatically transformed the previous unsightly street corner of 30th and
Newport Boulevard to an attractive restaurant destination through the addition of a new parking lot,
planters and landscaping, eye- catching exterior paint, and a newly enhanced entrance. However,
improvements to the site need not and should not stop at this "first phase" of redevelopment.
I have thoroughly reviewed Malarky's "phase two" improvement and remodel plan which include a new
outdoor dining area, an expansion and remodel of the in -door dining area, the use of valet parking,
while maintaining the current hours of operation for the entire venue. Contrary to the opinions of a few
misinformed residents, l am certain that the proposed improvements will NOT be a nuisance to the
surrounding area but instead greatly benefit the City of Newport Beach, its residents and visitors by:
1. Generating taxable revenue for the City;
2. Creating an attractive retail /restaurant district; and
3. Attracting sophisticated clientele.
For the aforementioned reasons, I would like to express my unequivocal support for ALL of the proposed
improvements to Malarky's. Additionally, I urge you, on behalf of the City of Newport Beach Planning
Department, to approve the current set of plans in their present form and immediately issue a building
permit to Malarky's ownership so that they may begin "phase two" construction.

RE: Support for Malarkys Project
Dear Mr. McDaniel:
As a peninsula resident and Newport Beach businesswoman I am writing to express my support
for the Malarkys expansion.
My business, B Scene Advertising, does advertising, event planning, public relations and other
related services. We run charity and promotional events for entities such as The Real
Housewives of Orange County and the Miss Newport Beach Pageant. I have trouble finding
quality venues large enough to accommodate the 12 pre - events and main event. We also like
to use different facilities so as to have variety and not the same place every time.
After the remodel, Malarkys would be a perfect location for us to hold an event.
Driving down Newport Boulevard I have seen the new landscaped parking lot and improved
exterior of the building which Is an improvement to the peninsula. I believe the
addition of the outdoor dining patio and indoor remodel /expansion will raise the level of
clientele of Malarkys. This is good for everyone. All ships rise with an incoming tide.
I do think the outdoor patio should be allowed to stay open till at least 11:00 p.m. In the
summer time especially I enjoy a late dinner with friends after work oron the weekend.
Please vote to approve the Malarkys project. Thank you.

Subject: Malarkys Argument
Brent-
Due to my family having that bad flu going around I might not be able to make it to planning commission.
If I can't make it... read this on my behalf or take snippets out.
My name Oliver Fleener I'm a resident here Newport Beach. I've been a resident here for my entire life. I was
a lifeguard here for 10 years; my dad recently retired from the building department here at the City; I am
married with three kids, and candidly I enjoy nothing more than living here in this great City. My family
participates in all the local activities, sports associations, Jr Lifeguard programs etc. My wife runs a small retail
shop just down on PCH. My business is also in Newport Beach as commercial real estate broker with Grubb &
Ellis for almost 15 years now. I specialize in office, retail, sales and leasing as well as redevelopment.
Needless to say I am very familiar with the City and have a STRONG vested interest in what happens here —
not only for business but for the general and personal reasons too. As a result, I wanted to address Malarky's
proposed reconfiguration on all three (3) fronts — Business — General - Personal.
From a business perspective — Malarky's should be allowed their request simply to help local businesses. Here
are some simple statistics to consider: First and foremost as we all know the commercial real estate market
has struggled greatly in the last few years. Vacancy rates have doubled to near 20% and rents have declined
a 1/3 to almost in half. As a result property values have fell dramatically — when property values fall, owners
and businesses do not put additional capital into them. This cycle is contagious and repetitive. By way of
review I was the listing broker for the Lido Village just across the way and that was a VERY difficult site to work
on. There were /are no tenants, the rents are so low they can't be justify with lenders do deal at and candidly
this area and the product is just plain tired and run down. This is a theme /aura that seems to stretch to
neighboring buildings here on the peninsula — heck why is the City Hall moving out of here? If one building /
tenant can't get business done... why would another chose to move here? It is a domino effect. Thus the City
needs to support all businesses the best they can to stop a spreading anemic environment. THEY CITY
NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS. In addition, the City needs a PR boost in how it works with its local businesses.
Just by way of review, I list anywhere from 500,000 to 1,000,000 SF of product, and represent over a 100
tenants moving into and out of Newport Beach at any given time. The general consensus amongst my
clientele is "NEWPORT BEACH is difficult to do business with." It is well known in the business community
that this is a NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) controlled city. Most businesses would rather not put up the fight to
12.3
deal with growth, changes etc. The reason I believe this to be true is because most businesses are too small
to deal with an emotionally charged opposition. Did you know that the average tenant size in Newport Beach
is 3 -4 employees and occupies only 800 -1600 SF. This is tenant size makes up approximately 85% of the
tenant mix here in Newport Beach. Now consider Malarky's which is a 5,000 sq ft building and only has 1,150
feet of customer space; which puts this business statistically in the top 15% of the tenant sizes here. Now why
would the City not want to assist them? More importantly as I noted prior, the City needs to present a better /
more business friendly environment to tenants — ESPECIALLY ONES THAT ARE TRYING TO GROW — when
the rest of the market is struggling. The City needs to fix this image of a desolate business environment —
especially here on the peninsula.
Speaking of a desolate environment — that leads to my 2"tl concern from a general observation as a resident of
Newport Beach. I am concerned with what is going to happen in this greater peninsula area once the City Hall
moves. I think it is great, and it makes sense that the City is moving up to Avocado / Newport Center — but I
personally fear that once the City has left, this area will be abandoned as the proverbial "other side of the
tracks" — kind of out of sight, out of mind. My reasoning for this is again... Lido Village. I know there was a
meeting about a month ago reviewing concepts for a redevelopment — but again nothing has happened for
nearly 15 years — maybe not to the City's fault — but again, this whole area is tired and nothing "appears" to be
happening. This is world class real estate, in one of the richest places on the planet, that is essentially dead
on the vine! As for Malarky's, here is something that the City can make happen! The City did a great job in
putting in the "fagade entry ways just over the bridge" and cleaned up the parking lots in the area... now the
neighboring businesses need a chance to upgrade and compliment what the City has done! In fact I wish
there were 20 more businesses in the area that would line up out the door right now and do what Malarky's is
proposing to do. This area is SO OVERDUE for a "face lift" not just on the outside but also in the business
environment. There needs to be a desire for the City's residents to come and shop here — and not just the
transient visitors. I want to support local businesses — but I also want - to want to go there. Help these
businesses improve themselves.
That leads to my final point which is a personal one. As I mentioned prior, I have lived here my whole life.
This peninsula has not changed much at all over my lifetime. Some of these businesses and buildings are the
same as long as I can remember —which is nice and nostalgic for most NIMBY's — but some of these places
are just rotting into the ground. I personally would like to see this place cleaned up and yet keep that feel of
what the peninsula is. When I saw that Malarky's finally turned that old, dirt and weed invest, lot next door to it
into a usable — very nice looking — parking lot... I mean WOW. That only took 20 years to do? And Malarky's
finally painted the building - That took 20 years? And yet there are still NIMBY's saying — "No change! "? What
are they thinking? I have to assume they knew what and where they purchasing? For them to complain is like
a home buyer purchasing a house under an airport and then complaining about the planes? What? The ironic
thing is... Marlarky's is not changing... it is getting better / cleaner / more presentable. Marlaky's is not
proposing to change a church into a liquor store, or a daycare into an adult lounge. They are cleaning up the
building and making it more functional — the use is the same. The City should support Malarky's... not only for
common sense purposes, but the purposes stated above — help local businesses, improve the City image,
demonstrate that it is not abandoning this area as the other side of the tracks, and for goodness sake - help
these businesses help themselves.

Malarkys patio issue
Mr. Murillo
My name is Colin Weeks, and I have lived at 214 30th Street for the past 5.5 years. I live 2 houses over from
the Albertsons (Pavillion) and Malarkys parking lot, and directly across the street from Mr. Drew Wetherhold.
In the past 5.5 years, I have never had an issue with Malarkys, its staff or its patrons. I am writing this letter to
make sure that the City of Newport Beach knows that Mr. Wetherhold's letter opposing the outdoor patio
initiative DOES NOT represent neither my view nor that of my wife. In fact, I believe that Mr. Wetherhold's
letter solely represents his own personal agenda. I sincerely believe that Mr. Wetherhold's opinions are not
shared by the majority of his neighbors, and I encourage you to speak with all of them.
Mr. Wetherhold decided to built a house on a lot attached to a retail parking lot, and since that time he has tried
to force Albertsons, and now, Malarkys to cater to his own personal agenda and make they cave into his
demands.
Not only has Malarkys been a great neighbor and Newport Beach institution, but its recent cosmetic additions
to the facade and new parking lot have made the 30th Street neighborhood even nicer. I think it is sad that
people waste taxpayer time and money to manipulate the system to meet personal agenda.
I am happy to discuss this matter in any level of detail, in any venue - public or private.

Dear Mr. Wetherholt,
Yes, this does impact me even though I have only set foot in Malarky's once in the last 30 years. In fact it pisses me off.
Pardon my frankness, but who should care what you think regarding your desired size of Malarky's building? Every
American business owner still has a right to improve or otherwise make larger his property if he so chooses (existing
building codes notwithstanding). They don't have to please you!
If you have a problem with drunk people, you need to address that directly and honestly instead of masking your
intentions. You should know, there are tried and true legal avenues currently enforceable on the owners of restaurants
or bars regarding intoxicated customers. Your concern seems to be Malarky's bartenders continue to serve alcohol to
drunk patrons & customers... or otherwise attract drunk patrons - right?
Well, regardless of your true intention(s), you have no moral or legal right to limit the size of Malarky's physical building
other than what is designated by current CA and NB codes. I wish people like you would deal more appropriately, more
honestly and according to existing law with your individual concerns regarding others. Or, go ahead and try to change
the law so that you and your'friends' can decide how big Malarky's building should be, or even exist at all. That would
solve your "additional 100+ intoxicated individuals" concern wouldn't it?
And thank you for pointing this out though so that I can let my opinion support current recommendations for approval.
Respectfully,

We really need the community's support. Believe it or not, the planning department is ACTUALLY recommending
APPROVAL which would basically DOUBLE the size of Malarkys bar and put an additional 100+ intoxicated individuals
roaming our neighborhoods. Planning Dept is basically putting in ANOTHER FULL -SCALE BAR in an area that is
already over - concentrated with ABC establishments and has an excessive amount of alcohol related problems.
PLEASE REVIEW THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT AND TAKE JUST A MOMENT TO SEND AN EMAIL TO THE CITY
SAYING THAT WE DO NOT SUPPORT THIS APPLICATION. WE DO NOT WISH TO SEE MALARKY'S BAR EXPAND
AS THIS WILL ONLY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT TO OUR COMMUNITY. REQUEST THAT THE PLANNIG

The expansion and remodel of l.Malarkvs will only make it a much nicer facility and
attract a higher end Customer. Nlalarlcys is really no different as a bar then Cannery
except Cannery has nicer bathrooms.
Please approve Malarkys CLIP.
Thank you.

Malarky's Bar Expansion Application

Attention: Planning Commission

Jaime Murillo
Reference: Malarky's Application up 2010 -039
Planning Commission, City Council and Staff:
I would like to echo Cindy Koller's request to deny the Malarky's Bar expansion application.
As a resident of the Peninsula I am appalled that the staff report submitted does not go into greater detail
regarding the impacts to residents this expansion would most certainly impose.
The Peninsula zone has a far greater burden than any where else in the City of Newport Beach in regard to
alcohol establishments.
As we have been involved with the (hopefully) better use of the old City Hall site ... it would seem at this point
the city staff would look at the entire impact of adding even more space for drinking alcohol in such close
proximity to the future use of that site.
Residents of the Peninsula should not continue to bear the burden of even ONE MORE bar or expansion and we
would expect our city leaders to be looking for ways to mitigate the problems we have now with over crowded
bars, not enough parking and the general crime that goes along with that.
Our City Council just voted to give our Police Chief and his Dept. more latitude in dealing with the problem we
now have with alcohol establishments ... yet City staff seems to be ignoring the letters of request to deny this
application written by our very own Police Dept. detectives. I find that troubling and of great concern.
As was reported, we had a death recently in our city directly attributed to the intoxication and drowning of a
young man who had frequented the very same bars in and around the area in question. I do not wish to use his
horrible death to remind our city employees of the dangers that come with being complacent in regards to too
many bars in such a dense area and close proximity to a LARGE body of water but it cannot be ignored.
135
PLEASE... residents are looking to you to help end the over saturation of bars and drinking establishments in the
Peninsula zone.
I am asking you to deny this request and in the future please be mindful of the already established burden that
the Peninsula resident must endure.
Thank You,
Lori Morris

Reference: Malarky's Application up 2010 -039
Gentlemen:
After reviewing the entire staff report on the Malarky's use permit application I would like to express my concerns with the
'expansion' and staff findings.
It seems the city planning staff has penciled a standard response to the applicant but has not performed due diligence
when it comes to representing the factual concerns of the residents who live on the Peninsula and near this project.
It is commendable and the community is very pleased that Mr. Marovic would like to further improve what has long been
an eyesore in this area and yes he has made substantial beautification improvements and we are grateful but
the residents concerns of I increases of noise, nuisances, foot traffic, vehicle traffic and crime associated with an
increased drinking clientele seems to be overlooked.
No one in the community is against Mr. Marovic trying to improve his business especially in these economic times but
a request to double the inside occupant load from 91 to 198 then adding an additional 49 patrons on the patio at a
drinking establishment, any bar /restaurant in such a high density area is going to cause a considerable added undue
burden on the residents who live in close proximity to this property, a huge strain on resident parking (patrons using
Albertson's parking lot), an added impact on Hoag's already impacted ER (per the physicians who work there) and a
overload on our city services(PD,Fire and Paramedic).
Mr. Marovic has outlined a well thought -out security plan to try to reduce the impacts he knows will come with a large
jump in clientele but we all are painfully aware that no matter how well intentioned and implemented his plan is, it is only
as good as the area he can apply it to, once these clients leave the property the burden and impacts fall directly on the
residents and the Newport Beach Police Department.
As one resident my police logs represent a small look into the late night impacts suffered by residents who live in such a
dense mixed -use area near these bars on the Peninsula (fighting, crude loud language, public urination, vomiting on our
properties, public sex, increase vehicle traffic using side streets to avoid Police units and a barrage of vehicle hit and
runs).
I sincerely wish Mr. Marovic continued business success and applaud him for the positive changes he has made thus far
but would respectfully ask the planning commission to consider the facts the NBPD submitted and deny his request for
expansion of an outside patio area.

Subject: Malarkey's Expansion
Gentlemen,
I am writing to request that you please vote against the proposed expansion of Malarkey's. I fail to see how
permitting the expansion would be in the best interest of our community.
As I understand it, the plan is to increase the capacity of Malarkey's by around 100 patrons. Where will these
additional patrons park? Parking on the peninsula is already a nightmare. It is also fair to expect that a number
of these additional cars' drivers will be intoxicated after leaving Malarkey's. The last thing we need is an
increase in the number of drunk drivers on our roads.
In addition, it is no secret that the party atmosphere of bars such as Malarkey's tends to spill out into the streets
after 2:OOAM causing headaches for residents in the immediate vicinity. I can not imagine how much worse the
problem would get if 100 more patrons are added to the mix.
I am confident that after taking the time to engage in a cost - benefit analysis of the situation, you will come to
the conclusion that allowing Malarkey's to expand would be detrimental to our community. Please do not
approve the Malarkey's expansion. I thank you for your time.

Dear Planning Commission,
As property owners of 215 30'h Street, we join in the concerns of the Newport Peninsula community and want
to express our opposition to the expansion of Malarky's Bar.
As the Planning Commission, you are quite aware of the data that many in the community are raising such the
over concentration of ABC licenses in the Newport peninsula. Of course, you are also quite aware of the
associated problems such as the high police activities with DUIs, and public intoxication, property damage to
private properties in the area, as well as other public nuisances as vandalism, noise, brawls, trash and
unruliness. The recklessness occurs during times well into the night and early morning when local residents —
families, children, the elderly -- should also be assured of their own right to peace and safety.
The sad fact that the Planning Commission should also consider are the consequences to Public Safety and
Liability. With budgetary problems, can the city afford to enforce its laws on public safety? Can the city afford
to place police officers on every ABC licensee on the peninsula during the operating hours of these ABC
licensees and into the morning hours?
Sincerely,
Irena and Richard Glassman

Subject:
Malarkeys Expansion
Planning Commissioners:
I DO NOT WISH TO SEE MALARKYS EXPAND AS THIS WILL ONLY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT TO OUR
COMMUNITY. MALARKYS APPLICATION SHOULD BE DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
• The peninsula area (District 15) already has an over - concentration of ABC establishments. According the Alcohol
Beverage Control and Newport Beach Police, this small area has in excess of 78 ABC licenses. The most ABC
licenses not only in the city but in all of Orange County!
• According to the Newport Beach Police, there is 1 ABC license per every 38 residents in District 15! This is
extremely excessive and illustrates that there is NO NEED to increase drinking establishments in this area.
• Reporting District 15 has the highest crime rate in the city by far. According to the Newport Beach Police
Department, this reporting district (RD) had a total of 946 reported crimes as compared to a city -wide reporting
district average of 162 reported crimes (483.95 % above the city -wide RD average). These statistics would tend to
indicate that there is a strong correlation between the over- concentration of ABC establishments and police
related activity. It should also be noted that the majority of these calls for service occurred between the hours of
6PM and 2AM. Not a very productive use of City, Police or taxpayers resources /money.
• The Newport Beach Police Department has also recommended AGAINST the Malarky's expansion to the
Planning Department.
• The area does NOT need an additional 100+ intoxicated individuals roaming our neighborhoods at 2AM with the
related problems of yelling /screaming, puking, public urination, sex, vandalism, fights, property damage, and
drunk - driving etc. Residents are constantly being disturbed, woken -up and having to deal with these alcohol
related problems. Intoxicated individuals have even tried breaking into nearby homes.
• Often residents get to start their weekends cleaning -up puke, broken bottles, and even condoms on the streets,
sidewalks and even their front porches. Bras and panties are also found.
• Intoxicated people are constantly running across Newport Blvd and going against the traffic lights especially
during the hours of 11 PM -2AM. Individuals have nearly been hit by cars and traffic gets obstructed. Cabs often
double - parked and create cab lines that also obstruct traffic.
• The surrounding area cannot handle the increased parking even if the applicant has met "zoning" parking
requirements. Let's say there is an increase of 100 patrons and let's say only 30% of these patrons drive to the
bar, there is simply nowhere for them to park. The municipal lots are full and we already have patrons parking all
over our neighborhood. This is not acceptable as the area is already significantly under - parked and this provides
no benefit to the community.
• Malarkey's is NOT a restaurant; it is a BAR! Malarky's hosts events such as the Zombie Pub Crawl featuring
cheap drink specials.
• The patios of Rudy's bar and the Newport Beach Brewing Company are already too noisy with the related yelling
and screaming both during the day and the evening. There is no need to add a patio to Malarky's bar as this will
only contribute more noise and problems to the area. There is no logical place to put a patio area on the
Malarky's property. All possible locations will have a negative impact on the surrounding community because the
excessive sound from the patio will carry throughout the neighborhood. The proposed location is like an enclosed
alley and the sound will only echo throughout the area.
1-'1
• PUBLIC SAFETY is a real concern due to the continued increase of ABC establishments. Doubling the size of
this bar will only increase the alcohol related problems within this district and the public safety is further
endangered.
WHEN IS TOO MUCH, ENOUGH? PLEASE DENY MARLARKY'S APPLICATION.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Malarky's Bar Expansion
Hello - my husband and I built our home on the 200 block of 30th Street in 1991 and have lived here since that time
We love living here and adjust to the summer visitors and renters that come and go. But the bar situation seems to be
getting out of hand. We have the Brew Co. at the end of our street on Newport Blvd., Rudy's on 31st and Newport,
Malarky's across the street from Rudy's and the new Pavillions Center will have at least 2 establishments "that we are
aware of that will serve liquor and have patios right next to Malarky's.
A prudent person would agree that enough is enough in this bar congested area we know as "home ".
I am personally against an expansion of the "restaurant" bar that is closest to my home that impacts all of my neighbors.
And I am against their obtaining a Parking Waiver. This will just impact our street all the more. For such a short street, we
have a large number of owner /residents that really "know each other" and rally when an issue impacts us. And we have 5
children living on the 200 block.
I have been a Street Captain for Neighborhood Watch for a number of years and have gone to bat for my neighbor friends
who have come to me with issues that they did not know how to handle. And the only thing I feel I can do concerning this
issue is to advise you that I am one of many that does not want 100 more people packed into our local pub on our street
causing traffic, taking up parking spaces and causing issues late at night as these drinkers try to find their vehicles and
the loud talking and screaming that accompanies late night drinking, and then police involvement to assist us.
Thank you for your consideration.

To the Planning Commission of Newport Beach;
I am sending this as a personal email. Malarky's is not CNBCA's area. It is in
West Newport's area.
I feel very strongly that you should not grant the conditional use permit nor
give a waiver for parking. This area is over parked now.
There the problem of taxis standing waiting for fares, double parked or circling
around the area. This makes for much congestion on Newport Blvd.
You can stand at Malarky's front door and see two other bars across the street.
The bar goers seem to go from one to the other.
They cross against the light or in the middle of the street. There is no regard
for drivers. One of these days someone will get killed.
Putting a bar in the remake of the market on 32nd Street between Newport
Blvd. and Balboa Blvd. should not be granted either.
If adding more bar space on the peninsula is some - body's idea of REDEVELOPMENT
then bring back the one arm bandits.
Thank you all for the work you do for the city.

Hello,
I've been a resident on 30th St. for over 10 years. I have wonderful neighbors who genuinely care about this city. Over
the years, we put up with a lot of issues with drunk/intoxicated individuals due to the bars being around the corner. I do
visit them myself, but are very respectful of my neighbors and don't come home late, loud or behave in inappropriate ways
in front of the children on our street. Our street almost nightly already has issues with the patrons of these bars, being
extremely loud at all our of the night and early morning. These patrons, are known to leave trash on our patios, vomit on
our sidewalks, pass out on our patios and scream loud inappropriate profanities during all hours of the day. Also we
already have difficulty parking from Memorial Day -Labor Day. Adding capacity to Malarky's Irish Pub would only escalate
all of these issues. The honest citizens who love this city would like to keep it a nice place to live and raise a family.
Please support your residents and deny any expansions of Malarky's Irish pub. The commission hearing is on 3/3/11 and
as a long time resident, please help keep it nice for my neighbors and the other residents that surround this
establishment.
Thank you for your time.

Subject: Malarky's Petition to Expand
To Whom It May Concern:
Recently it has come to my attention that Malarky's Bar and Grill located at 3011 Newport Blvd. is requesting a use permit
that would not only allow for an outdoor patio area but also more than double its occupancy. While I respect Malarky's as
a staple of Newport Beach, I do not enjoy the bulk of patrons leaving the facility.
First, Malarky's is primarily a bar and I have seen too many individuals leaving who are extremely intoxicated. This level
of intoxication leads to an unacceptable levels of noise, unnecessary physical and verbal fights, individuals relieving
themselves in alleyways and garages, an excessive level of inappropriate trash (bottles, cans, miscellaneous clothing
items, left over/ uneaten pizza), and vomit. A beautiful new facility is being built just behind Malarky's complete with
more restaurants and conveniences for vacationers and residents alike. I do not think that any of us want this new
facility defaced by these late night antics.
Second, we are already having trouble with the late night noise at the Newport Beach Brewing Company (Brew Co.).
Besides the noise of those leaving Malarky's increasing with an increased capacity, adding an outdoor patio to Malarky's
directly accross the street will only raise this noise level exponentially all while the City of Newport Beach uses our tax
dollars trying to control it.
In conclusion, while outdoor seating would be a nice addition to many restaurants in Newport Beach, Malarky's is not one
of these locations. The noise that the patio will produce as well as increased number of drunk guests wondering the
streets after hours will only further hurt the areas struggling housing market it will stifle the reputation for which Newport
Beach strives. Malarky's should not be granted a permit to expand its facility.
Thank you for your time and concern in this matter. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to contact

The absolute last thing the Peninsula zone needs is an expanded Malarky's!! We have a total over concentration

already have!!
The policing issues, parking issues and the hugely undesirable addition to a business that is already a negative

have proliferated in this part of Newport Beach! All of this is counter productive to our efforts to remake the

Allowing Malarky's to expand is out of the question. It's a no brainer.

As a resident of the central peninsula, I beg you to do all you can to
deter the expansion of Malarky's, their addition of patio service, and
increased signage. One of the good things about Malarky's has been
their tasteful outside appearance and it would be sad for that to
become a tacky sign center. Regarding expansion -NOM Currently we
drive through that section of bars very cautiously hoping to prevent
the car being hit by a drunk falling off the curb. More bar capacity
equals more patrons at risk of impeding traffic in their unique ways.
Just last weekend I screached to a halt as a Cassidy's patron decided
to follow two lovely ladies who had earlier crossed Newport Blvd. As
these three stood arm in arm in the center of Newport Blvd. with all
lanes of incoming traffic stopped, there could be no question that
they had stayed in the bar too long. Current bar capacity is more than
adequate.

Conditional Use Permit for Malarky's Bar Expansion - 3011 Newport Blvd

Newport Beach, CA 92663
RE: Conditional Use Permit for Malarky's Bar Expansion - 3011 Newport Blvd
Dear Sirs:
I was recently informed that the new owners of Malarky's Bar (3011 Newport Blvd) have applied to
the Planning Commission for a Conditional Use Permit to expand the facility and add an outdoor
patio. I further understand that this expansion would increase their occupancy by about double the
current number.
I can't tell you how upsetting this is to me as a local resident living on Marcus Avenue in Newport
Beach since 2003. I have already suffered through the aftermath of the expansion of Rudy's bar
where we were assured by the ownership and the Commission that there would be "no real impact"
on the local residents.., this has proven to be a complete farce. I have personally called the Newport
Beach Police Department over ten times since that expansion to have them come break up fights,
pick up patrons that were passed out in the bushes in front of my house, and to report drunken
vandalism to my Marcus Avenue property. Further, I have been awakened by drunks making their
way into my back yard, urinating on my bedroom window, yelling and screaming as they make their
way home, and my car was severely damaged by a shopping carts being used for go -cart racing at
1:30am.
I realized that when I bought my house in the beach area that parking would be tough, but I did not
plan on having Rudy's employees taking up all the street parking between 32nd and 35"' streets. It is
hard enough to find a spot now with Rudy's "plaid -clad bar girls" and patrons parking on our streets,
with the additional draw of the new Crow Bar in the soon to be completed Pavilion's center and
another 100 people nightly at Malarky's, there will never be a spare space for residents or their
friends in our neighborhood.
We are living with one Planning Commission mistake already. I implore you not to make another by
allowing the Malarky's expansion that will deposit yet more cars, drunks and disorderly patrons onto
the surrounding streets.
155
The neighborhood just west of Malarky's used to be comprised mostly of low dollar rental units with
absentee owners but over the last decade more and more people have purchased duplexes and
converted them to single family dwellings to live in with their young families. With the increase of
owner occupied "family" dwellings the need and tolerance for expanded drinking establishments has
exceeded the limit. Our neighborhood has changed into a nice place for families to live and for kids
to play. Please don't bring back the seedy element that our neighborhood has tried so hard to clean
up by adding capacity for yet another drinking establishment.
Please help us keep our neighborhood safe and family oriented.

I am aware of a proposed expansion petition on behalf of Malarky's and subsequent planning commission hearing

thoughts as a homeowner, concerned citizen and Newport Beach Tax payer —so I'm asking you to consider my thoughts

What in God's name could be the upside to our community? I have a family and we often walk past some of the

indecent and disruptive to my simply walking the streets in my own neighborhood — rarely are they polite or sensitive to
the appearance or safety of our community. Could you, or anyone on the planning commission, actually believe that we
have a shortage of drinking or eating establishments in the area?
This specific establishment has operated in the same location for quite some time - now all of sudden we have an
ownership change and for some reason the new owner is looking to our community to enhance his investment —vote no
on this petition.... maybe Mario should consider building another bar in his own back yard! 11

Please do not let Malarky's increase the size of their location. We have more than enough area in this city for
people to drink. We do not need more people coming to the peninsula to get drunk.

Expansion of Malarky's Bar
We have just read with some amazement that the Planning Commission is actually
recomending the expansion of Malarky's. If there is one thing that the Lido Isle and
Penninsula residents do NOT need is another bar and more associated drinking problems
such as drunk drivers, broken bottles, and rather nasty litter, let alone the noise factor of a
patio bar, Please do not allow our wonderful Newport/Balboa area to invite further
problems for us and the police.

opposed to Malarky's expansion
Gentlemen,
I am strongly opposed to Malarky's proposed expansion. I have lived and worked on the peninsula for over 20 years
within a few blocks of Malarky's. As a younger man, I spent my share of time inside Malarky's as well as every other bar
on the peninsula, so I am not opposed to drinking or drinking establishments in general. However, I remain strongly
opposed to any expansion, or establishment of new drinking' facilities. We have more than enough we don't need
more! I am also particularly opposed to any outdoor /patio expansion due to the increase in late night noise which is
already at unacceptable levels in the area.
I urge you to deny the request for conditional use permit.
Thank you,

PA2010 -172 Reject it
Malarky's bar (3011 Newport Blvd.) on the Newport Beach peninsula is requesting a conditional use permit to significantly
expand the capacity of the bar and add a 782 square foot outdoor patio. This expansion would over double the occupancy
from approximately 91 people to over 200 people. We do NOT need to see an additional 100+ intoxicated individuals
roaming our neighborhoods. The application also requests to allow more than 3 signs on a single- tenant building. (City of
Newport Beach Project File No: PA2010 -172)
WE DO NOT WISH TO SEE MALARKYS EXPAND AS THIS WILL ONLY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT TO OUR
COMMUNITY, MALARKYS APPLICATION SHOULD BE DENIED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
The peninsula area (District 15) already has an over - concentration of ABC establishments. According the Alcohol
Beverage Control and Newport Beach Police, this small area has in excess of 78 ABC licenses. The most ABC
licenses not only in the city but in all of Orange County!
According to the Newport Beach Police, there is 1 ABC license per every 38 residents in District 15! This is
extremely excessive and illustrates that there is NO NEED to increase drinking establishments in this area.
Reporting District 15 has the highest crime rate in the city by far. According to the Newport Beach Police
Department, this reporting district (RD) had a total of 946 reported crimes as compared to a city -wide reporting
district average of 162 reported crimes (483.95% above the city -wide RD average). These statistics would tend to
indicate that there is a strong correlation between the over - concentration of ABC establishments and police
related activity. It should also be noted that the majority of these calls for service occurred between the hours of
6PM and 2AM. Not a very productive use of City, Police or taxpayers resources /money.
• The Newport Beach Police Department has also recommended AGAINST the Malarky's expansion to the
Planning Department.
• The new owner was advised by the old owner that the surrounding community is against ANY expansion of the
existing bar. He KNEW what he was buying and bought it anyway. Also the property does NOT need to have
more than 3 signs when the rest of the surrounding businesses do not. This would be tacky and create an
additional eyesore.
• The area does NOT need an additional 100+ intoxicated individuals roaming our neighborhoods at 2AM with the
related problems of yelling /screaming, puking, public urination, sex, vandalism, fights, property damage, and
drunk - driving etc. Residents are constantly being disturbed, woken -up and having to deal with these alcohol
related problems. Intoxicated individuals have even tried breaking into nearby homes.
100
• PUKE, PUKE and MORE PUKE! Often residents get to start their weekends cleaning -up puke, broken bottles,
and even condoms on the streets, sidewalks and even their front porches. Bras and panties are also found.
• Intoxicated people are constantly running across Newport Blvd and going against the traffic lights especially
during the hours of 11 PM -2AM. Individuals have nearly been hit by cars and traffic gets obstructed. Cabs often
double- parked and create cab lines that also obstruct traffic.
• City staff has also indicated that Malarkey's will need to request a parking waiver to meet the proposed
occupancy expansion. This is not acceptable as the area is already significantly under- parked and this provides
no benefit to the community.
• Malarkey's is NOT a restaurant; it is a BAR! Malarky's hosts events such as the Zombie Pub Crawl featuring
cheap drink specials.
• The patios of Rudy's bar and the Newport Beach Brewing Company are already too noisy with the related yelling
and screaming both during the day and the evening. There is no need to add a patio to Malarky's bar as this will
only contribute more noise and problems to the area. There is no logical place to put a patio area on the
Malarky's property. All possible locations will have a negative impact on the surrounding community because the
excessive sound from the patio will carry throughout the neighborhood. The proposed location is like an enclosed
alley and the sound will only echo throughout the area.
• The peninsula has the highest incidents of DUls and drunk - driving. PUBLIC SAFETY is a real concern.
Deny thus application.

Dear Jamie,
I understand there is a proposed expansion petition on behalf of a bar called Malarkys scheduled for March P . As a
concerned citizen and a Newport Beach Tax payer, I will definitely be attending the hearing. I want to see for myself if
anyone on the Planning Commission has any common sense. Don't we already have enough bars in the area of 30'h
street, you can't stumble out of one without going into another. For Malarkys to try to expand their bar with the sole
purpose of getting more people drunk is absurd. For the Planning Commission's information, there are a lot of us
residents that would like to see Newport Beach become more family oriented. Please vote "no" on Malarky's petition
to expand their bar area.

Attention: Planning Commission

Jaime Murillo
Reference: Malarky's Application up 2010 -039
Planning Commission, City Council and Staff:
I would like to echo Cindy Koller's request to deny the Malarky's Bar expansion application.
As a resident of the Peninsula I am appalled that the staff report submitted does not go into greater detail
regarding the impacts to residents this expansion would most certainly impose.
272
The Peninsula zone has a far greater burden than any where else in the City of Newport Beach in regard to
alcohol establishments.
As we have been involved with the (hopefully) better use of the old City Hall site ... it would seem at this point
the city staff would look at the entire impact of adding even more space for drinking alcohol in such close
proximity to the future use of that site.
Residents of the Peninsula should not continue to bear the burden of even ONE MORE bar or expansion and we
would expect our city leaders to be looking for ways to mitigate the problems we have now with over crowded
bars, not enough parking and the general crime that goes along with that.
Our City Council just voted to give our Police Chief and his Dept. more latitude in dealing with the problem we
now have with alcohol establishments ... yet City staff seems to be ignoring the letters of request to deny this
application written by our very own Police Dept. detectives. I find that troubling and of great concern.
As was reported, we had a death recently in our city directly attributed to the intoxication and drowning of a
young man who had frequented the very same bars in and around the area in question. I do not wish to use his
horrible death to remind our city employees of the dangers that come with being complacent in regards to too
many bars in such a dense area and close proximity to a LARGE body of water but it cannot be ignored.
PLEASE... residents are looking to you to help end the over saturation of bars and drinking establishments in the
Peninsula zone.
I am asking you to deny this request and in the future please be mindful of the already established burden that
the Peninsula resident must endure.
Thank You,
Lori Morris

SUBJECT: MALARKY'S IRISH PUB NEW OUTDOOR PATIO AREA NOISE
ANALYSIS.
Dear Mr. Sheldon:
This letter analyzes the potential noise impacts to the nearby residences from the Malarky's Irish
Pub Remodel, which includes a new 782 square foot outdoor patio area. The proposed outdoor
dining area would be located on the north side of the existing structure and would be surrounded
by a 4 -foot high stucco wall with a 5 -foot 8 -inch glass wall on top of the stucco wall, for a total
wall height of 9 feet 8 inches.
The City of Newport Beach has established performance standards identified in Section
10.26.025 of the Municipal Code to control stationary source /non - transportation related noise
impacts, which includes noise from outdoor patio areas. For noise impacts onto residential areas,
the standards establish maximum allowable exterior noise levels for stationary noise when
measured on the property line of any residential property is 55 dBA Lett during the daytime (7
a.m. to 10 p.m.) and 50 dBA Leq during the nighttime (10 p.m. to 7 a.m.). If the ambient noise
level exceeds the above standards than the ambient noise level becomes the standard.
The location of the nearest residences to the new outdoor patio area are shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 also provides the distances in feet between the residences and the new outdoor patio
area as well as the locations of the noise measurements. Table A below provides the results of
the noise measurements.

Table A above shows that all noise measurements currently exceed the City's nighttime noise
standard of 50 dBA Leq and Sites A and C also exceed the City's daytime noise standard of 55
dBA Leq.
In order to determine the noise impacts of the new outdoor patio area a reference noise
measurement was taken at the edge of an existing outdoor patio area during lunchtime on a
Saturday. The reference noise measurement recorded noise levels of 62.6 dBA Leq and 85.5
dBA Lmax. In order to calculate the noise levels at the nearby residences, a version of the
FHWA -RD -77 -108 model was used and was based on a hard site drop -off rate of 6 db per
doubling of the reference distance. The results of the calculated noise levels are shown below in
Attachment A. Attachment A shows that the noise level will range from 8.5 to 16.8 dBA Leq
without construction of the perimeter wall and would be from 0 to 1.9 dB Leq with construction
of the wall.

On March 3, 2011 the owner /operator of Malarky's Irish Pub,
3011 Newport Boulevard, presented a modification request
of an existing CUP to the Planning Commission. The
modification request was controversial requiring multiple
votes by the Commissioners before a third vote passed, four
to one. The result of the final Planning Commission
determination granted the owner /operator of the property a
revised CUP that includes adding a patio to the property as
well as other expanded operational opportunities and
restrictions. One request, that of allowing occupancy of 166
individuals as determined by the Building Department, was
conditioned to reduce the occupancy from 166 to 120 after
11 pm in fear that a higher count of late night restaurant
patrons would further aggravate an already contentious night
life area in close proximity to residential zoning. I find this
condition somewhat confusing in light of the fact the Council
has recently passed a Restaurant Operation Permit designed
to provide a relatively quick method of addressing negative
operational conditions that jeopardize a neighborhood's
quality of life.
The act of balancing quality of life with providing the
opportunity for economically viable business ventures is an
important issue we should take time to address. I also
believe we need to better understand how and when the
newly enacted Restaurant Operation Permit should be
applied as a tool to mitigate risk associated with restaurant
and bar operations that remain open past 11 PM. I therefore
request the March 3, 2011 decision of the Planning
Commission related to Malarky's CUP as currently granted
by the Planning Commission be called -up before the City-
Coupe"or-furth,er discussion and consideratiobr

Department regarding the project application for Malarky's Irish Pub, located at
3011 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach.
It is important to note that Malarky's Irish Pub is a unique location for several
reasons: (1) it is located on a busy boulevard in close proximity to residential
neighborhoods (2) it is located in reporting district 15 which is the most
concentrated area for retail alcohol establishments in the Newport Beach, (3) It
has been, and will continue to be, a late night drinking establishment that
operates at or near full capacity on the weekends, and (4) it is in close proximity
to other late night drinking establishments such as Rudy's and Newport Brewing
Company.
The Police Department's primary concern with the interior expansion of Malarky's
is the significant increase in occupancy (75 interior, 49 patio) should this
application be approved. The applicant may have the best intentions, however,
the Police Department knows from experience that when Malarky's closes at
2 a.m., numerous intoxicated individuals leave and create subsequent problems
for police and neighborhood residents alike. This is in addition to the patrons that
are already leaving neighboring bars such as Rudy's and Newport Brewing
Company. It is our belief that an increase in occupancy, for Malarky's, will have
additional negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood and will be a
further drain on police services.
It should also be noted that while the Operator's License may be an effective tool
in many situations, we do not believe it can properly manage the effects of a
significant increase in occupancy. Even if the applicant followed all of the
conditions of the license, it would not properly address the influx of patrons onto
a busy boulevard and ultimately into the neighboring residential areas.

Malarky's
UP No. 2010 -039
The Police Department continues to recommend against the proposed interior
expansion based on the prediction that it will result in an increase in police
related activities and calls for police services. The resources required to address
these events would detract from our ability to provide police services to the other
areas of the Community

Project Setting
The subject property is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Newport
Boulevard and 30th Street on the Balboa Peninsula. The site is presently developed
with an eating and drinking establishment. Surrounding land uses include The Landing
shopping center to the north and west, Mama D's restaurant and an office building to
the east across Newport Boulevard, and a 35 -space municipal parking lot to the south.
Beyond the loading dock of the shopping center to the west are several single -unit and
two -unit residential dwellings on 30th Street. The property is also located in close
proximity to two other eating and drinking establishments, Rudy's Pub & Grill and the
Newport Beach Brewing Company, that also maintain late hour operations.
Proiect Description
The following is a summary of the proposed project:
1. Remodel- The applicant is proposing to remodel the existing floor plan to include
a new dining room, enlarged restrooms that are handicapped accessible, a new
waiter service station, and a reduction of office space and food storage area to
more efficiently utilize the floor area within the existing 4,966- square -foot
building. As required by Building Code, the remodel will include the installation of
fire sprinklers and a grease interceptor.
2. Outdoor Dining Patio— A new 782 - square -foot outdoor dining patio is proposed
to be constructed on the north side of the building. The maximum occupant load
of the patio would be 49 persons. A 9- foot -8- inch -high glass barrier will be used
to surround the patio and will provide for sound - attenuation from the vehicular
noise from Newport Boulevard and will also help retain noise generated by
patrons within the patio.
3. Interior Dining Room Expansion- To allow for increased food service, the
proposal would add approximately 565 square feet of sit -down dining area. The
total interior Net Public Area (NPA)t of the facility will increase from 1,150 square
feet to 1,715 square feet. The dining area will consist of three new booths and
approximately 11 new tables, for a total of four booths and 14 tables. Based on
the proposed floor plan, the Building Division has calculated the maximum
interior occupant load to be 166 persons. The total NPA of the establishment,
including the interior dining room expansion and outdoor dining patio will be
2,497 square feet.
' Area, Net Public. The total area used to serve customers, including customer sales and display areas, customer
seating areas, service counters, and service queue and waiting areas, but excluding restrooms and offices, kitchens,
storage and utility areas, and similar areas used by the employees of the establishment.

4. Fagade & Signage Improvements - The applicant is proposing an architectural
theme of a traditional Irish Pub. The proposal includes removing the changeable
sign marquee and painted signs, adding new foam cornices, decorative metal
trim and an antique clock, new signage, new awnings, and a new entry canopy.
A total of five wall signs, eight awning signs, and one projecting sign are
proposed. Approval of a comprehensive sign program is required whenever 3 or
more signs are proposed for a single- tenant building.
5. Operation Characteristics - No changes to the existing hours of operation are
proposed (7:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m., daily). During the day, the applicant intends to
promote food service and operate as a restaurant. In the late evening, the
applicant intends to conclude food service and continue operating primarily as a
bar. To address the increased parking demands of the establishment when
operating as a bar and to minimize impacts to the residential uses in the vicinity,
the applicant is proposing to close the outdoor dining patio at 11:00 p.m. No live
entertainment or dancing is proposed, however, amplified music will be provided
through a digital music jukebox. Also, a total of five televisions are proposed
within the outdoor dining patio.
6. Parking — The applicant has recently constructed a 22 -space parking lot
expansion on a separate parcel that abuts the property where the building is
located. The lot is owned by the same property owner; however, because the
property owner has not merged the parcels into one lot, the approval of off -site
parking is required to formally utilize the new parking lot. A total of 47 parking
spaces will be available for the use of the establishment, which equals the
minimum parking requirement of the Zoning Code.
Proposed plans are included as Attachment No. CC 2. Please refer to the attached
March 3, 2011, Planning Commission staff report for a detailed analysis of the proposed
project and requested approvals (Attachment No. CC 3).
Planning Commission Hearing and Action
On March 3, 2011, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed project. The
Planning Commission received extensive testimony from the public and the Police
Department. A total of 19 members of the public spoke in support of the project. Eight
residents spoke in opposition. The Planning Commission minutes are attached as
Attachment No. CC 4.
Several written letters of support and opposition were submitted to the Planning
Commission for their review and consideration. A total of 26 letters in support were
submitted and are attached as Attachment No. CC 5. A total of 35 letters in opposition
were submitted and are attached as Attachment No. CC 6. In addition, the applicant
submitted a petition with a total of 102 signatures in support of the project (not included
due to bulk).

The Planning Commission generally supported the project and recognized the following
community benefits that would result from the proposed project:
The recent parking lot improvements and proposed fagade improvements will
have a positive impact on the overall aesthetics of the area and could promote
further revitalization of the other commercial properties located along Newport
Boulevard.
The proposed renovations of the restrooms and increased dining opportunities
have the potential to help transform the existing bar to a successful restaurant
during the day. The expansion also triggers the need to install fire sprinklers and
a grease interceptor, which will provide enhanced safety and improve the City's
waste water system.
G Adequate parking is provided for the operation at all times of the day, with a
surplus provided during late -hours when the patio closes at 11:00 p.m.
Although the outdoor dining patio is proposed to operate until 11:00 p.m., the
location and design of the patio should buffer the nearby residential uses from
potential noise disturbances. The applicant's noise consultant also submitted a
noise study (Attachment No. CC 7) concluding that anticipated noise impacts
emanating from the proposed outdoor dining patio to the nearest residential uses
would be negligible due to the distance and the height of the proposed perimeter
wall.
The Planning Commission approved the applicant's request related to the
comprehensive sign program and the off -site parking. Members of the Planning
Commission expressed concerns with the increased interior occupancy during late
hours based on the Police Department testimony and community concerns. Ultimately,
the Planning Commission voted 4 to 1 to approve the project as proposed, but with
conditions (Condition No. 10) requiring that the interior occupant load of the
establishment be reduced from 166 persons to a maximum of 120 persons after 11:00
p.m., daily, and that the project return to the Planning Commission for a one -year review
(Condition No. 9).
Appeal
On March 17, 2011, Councilmember Hill appealed the Planning Commission's decision
(Attachment No. CC 8). The appeal letter states that "the act of balancing quality of life
with providing the opportunity for economically viable business ventures is an important
issue that [the Council] should take time to address'. The appeal raises the following
two issues as items that need further discussion and consideration by the City Council:
1. Clarification on the need for Condition No. 10, despite the fact that the operator is
subject to the recently adopted Operator License Ordinance (NBMC Chapter
3011 Newport Boulevard
April 26, 2011
Page 6
5.35) that was designed to provide a relatively quick method of addressing
negative conditions that jeopardize a neighborhood's quality of life.
2. Discussion of how and when the newly enacted Operator License should be
applied as a tool to mitigate risk associated with restaurant and bar operations
that remain open past 11:00 p.m.
Pursuant to Section 20.64.030.0 of the Zoning Code, a public hearing on an appeal is
conducted "de novo ", meaning that it is a new hearing and the prior decision to approve
the application by the Planning Commission have no force or effect. The City Council is
also not bound by the Planning Commission's prior decision and it is not limited to the
issues raised by Council Member Hill in the appeal.
Increased Occupancy Concerns (Condition No. 10)
The Planning Commission's decision to add Condition No. 10 was influenced by the
Police -Department's testimony and memorandum (Attachment No. CC 9) expressing
their concern with the proposed interior expansion and particularly the secondary effects
that occur when patrons leave the establishment at the close of business. The
memorandum indicates that intoxicated individuals currently leave the establishment
during late hours in numbers large enough to create problems for police and the
neighborhood residents. But of greater concern is that fact that these problems are
compounded with patrons leaving Rudy's Pub & Grill and the Newport Beach Brewing
Company, which are nearby and have similar late hours of operation. The Police
Department currently experiences a significant demand for law enforcement services in
this immediate area between the hours of 1:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m. on Saturdays and
Sundays. These demands for law enforcement services are caused by large numbers of
patrons illegally crossing Newport Boulevard and stopping traffic, taxi cabs blocking
traffic on Newport Boulevard, patrons loitering in the streets and sidewalks on Newport
Boulevard and within the neighboring residential areas. Even with the requirement to
secure an operator license, many of these secondary effects cannot be prevented as
they are outside the control of the operator of the establishment. The memorandum
concludes that the proposed increase in occupancy is expected to exacerbate the
existing late hour disturbances that occur in this area, that there will be additional
negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood, and will also be a further drain on
police services.
The Planning Commission recognized the various benefits that the project would afford,
but given the Police Department and community concerns with the applicant's proposed
82- percent increase in occupancy, they imposed Condition No. 10 restricting the interior
occupant load to 120 persons based on the fact that this would only increase the
occupancy by one third and that the increase would be more manageable for the Police
Department.
To assist the City Council in further evaluating the potential impacts of the proposed
project, staff has prepared the following table comparing the proposed hours of

Pro osed
The table above illustrates that between the hours of 1:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. on
weekends, there is currently the potential for a total of 494 patrons exiting these
establishments onto Newport Boulevard. The proposed interior expansion of Malarky's
Irish Pub could result in an increase of 75 more patrons during these hours, resulting in
a total of 569 patrons (15- percent increase). With the condition imposed by the Planning
Commission limiting the interior occupancy during late hours, the proposed interior
expansion would only result in an increase of 29 more patrons during these hours,
resulting in a total of 523 patrons (6- percent increase).
Operator License
For reasons according to the Police Department, the Operator License may not be
effective in this instance to manage the cumulative impacts that the increased
occupancy may have to the neighborhood. Quite simply, it is difficult to hold an operator
accountable for the actions of patrons once they have left the establishment and for
other external factors that contribute to the neighborhood environment. However, staff
believes that the Operator License would be an effective tool for managing a variety of
other potential disturbances associated with the establishment that are directly under
the control of the operator. For example, the following operations of the establishment
can effectively be regulated and controlled through an Operator License:
Type of Use- Should the operator abuse the conditional use permit and operate
an establishment inconsistent with the type of operation originally approved, the
Police Department can immediately suspend or revoke the Operator License for
non - compliance with the conditions of the license and conditional use permit. In
0
3011 Newport Boulevard
April 26, 2011
Page 8
the case of Malarky's, this would be applicable if it was operated as a nightclub
or lounge with provisions for dancing and /or live entertainment.
• Alcoholic Beverage Service- If it can be proven that the operator is serving over -
intoxicated patrons, the Police Department may suspend, modify, or revoke the
license. A substantial number of arrests of over - intoxicated patrons, directly
attributable to the establishment, would cause the Police Department to
investigate and make this case.
• Overcrowding and Security- The operator will be required to maintain and
operate under a comprehensive security plan. Procedures within the plan may be
modified by the Police Department should there be a need to address any
particular concerns in the future.
• Noise- Additional security or crowd management would be required to ensure
that patrons do not loiter within the parking lot after the close of business. Also,
should noise emanating from the outdoor dining patio become a problem, the
license can prohibit sound amplification and /or the ability to use televisions.
• Taxi Parking- To discourage taxi cabs illegally stopping and blocking traffic on
Newport Boulevard, the Operator License can require several of the surplus
parking spaces be reserved for taxi cabs during late hours to encourage taxi -cab
drivers to pick up patrons on -site.
Alternatives
The City Council may revise conditions of approval or deny the application altogether
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Staff recommends the City Council find this project exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA ") pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of
the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3. This
exemption authorizes additions to existing structures of up to 10,000 square feet. The
proposed project consists of a 565- square -foot interior dining room expansion and the
construction of a new 782- square -foot outdoor dining patio, and therefore, qualifies
under this exemption.
NOTICING:
Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to all property owners
within 300 feet of the property and posted at the site a minimum of 10 days in advance
of this hearing consistent with the Municipal Code. Additionally, the item appeared upon
the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City Hall and on the City website. The
agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the
meeting at which the City Council considers the item).

TITLE: Malarky's Irish Pub Appeal - (PA2010 -172)
3011 Newport Boulevard
ABSTRACT
An appeal of the Planning Commission's approval of Conditional Use Permit No. UP2010-
039 and Comprehensive Sign Program No. CS2011 -002 authorizing the expansion and
remodel of an existing eating and drinking establishment with late hours and allowing the
use of off -site parking. This item was continued from the May 10, 2011, City Council
meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Conduct public hearing; and
2. Modify the decision of the Planning Commission and adopt Resolution No. _
approving Conditional Use Permit No. UP2010 -039 and Comprehensive Sign
Program No. CS2011 -003, subject to findings and conditions included within the
draft resolution (Attachment No. CC 1).
April 26, 2011 City Council Hearing
On April 26, 2011, the City Council reviewed the proposed project and received
extensive testimony from the public. A total of 18 members of the public spoke in
support of the project. Seven residents spoke in opposition.
The City Council generally supported the project as conditionally approved by the
Planning Commission, with the exception of Condition No. 10. The City Council believed
that Condition No. 10, which requires the interior occupancy to be reduced from 166
persons to 120 persons between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m., would be
difficult to implement and enforce.
1
3011 Newport Boulevard
May 24, 2011
Page 2
There was a general consensus that the applicant should be allowed to improve the
business and make a reasonable return on his investment. The City Council believed
that with the requirement to secure an operator license pursuant to Chapter 5.25 of the
Municipal Code provided the City with the ability to effectively regulate the
establishment should problems occur in the future.
However, to address the concerns that the increased occupancy during late hours may
potentially create a detriment to the neighborhood, Councilmember Henn made a
motion to approve the project as proposed, with the following modifications:
Deleted Condition No. 10 requiring the interior occupancy to be reduced to 120
persons between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m.
O Added a new condition prohibiting the operator from allowing any entry or re-
entry of patrons into the establishment after midnight (New Condition No. 10).
Modified Conditions No. 4 and 5 to require full meal service to be provided until
midnight.
The City Council conducted a straw vote on the motion, which revealed support of the
motion from a majority the City Council. In order to allow the applicant time to consider
the proposed action and an opportunity to present an alternative proposal that could
potentially address the Council's concern, the City Council continued the public hearing
to the May 10, 2011, meeting.
May 10, 2011 City Council Hearing
The applicant was not prepared to present an alternative proposal or accept the motion
from the Council and, therefore, the applicant requested another 2 week continuance to
this meeting date.
Revised Resolution
As of the writing of this report, the applicant has not provided any new information or
alternative proposals. It is anticipated that the applicant will present an alternative at the
time of the hearing; however, should the applicant submit a proposal, staff will transmit it
to the City Council and make it available to the public. The attached draft resolution
incorporates the changes included in Councilmember Henn's motion. In addition, staff
has included Conditions No. 11 and 12 to ensure that the floor plan and occupancy
remains substantially the same as that currently proposed.
Condition No. 11- Sets the maximum square feet of net public• area allowed
within the interior of the establishment to 1,715 sq. ft. and on the outdoor dining
patio to 782 sq. ft, as proposed. Application of this condition will ensure that any
increase in net public area will require an amendment of this conditional use
permit.
2
3011 Newport Boulevard
May 24, 2011
Page 3
Condition No. 12- Sets the maximum interior occupant load of the interior of the
establishment to 166 persons. Application of this condition will ensure that in the
future, the expanded dining room area is not reconfigured for bar seating or
standing room, resulting in an increase in occupancy.

Subject: Malarky's Withdrawal
Dear Mr. Campbell,
I would like to respectfully withdraw the Malarky's application for expansion scheduled to be heard at the City Council
meeting this evening. I really appreciate everything the city staff, mayor and city council have done. Everyone has been
very accessible and accommodating.
From my operational and financial perspective, I am not comfortable making a decision. In addition to the
financial investment, the ongoing operating costs of the new facility would be substantially higher. The
substantially higher ongoing operating costs, coupled with the additional operating restrictions make the risk
too high for me to accept at this time.
Thank you again for all your help with this process and I look forward to working with you in the future.

Dear Mayor Henn and City Council
You have been given a recommendation by the Newport Beach Police Department, as well as, the
Newport Beach Planning Department regarding the subject of Malarky's Expansion Request and they
both recommend to not grant headcount expansion other than to the patio.
The central factor in making such recommendation was that the Police are unable to determine the
origination of problem behavior that emanates from the triangle of bars and restaurants surrounding
Malarkey's and therefore ....the Police would not be able to ever enforce the permit restrictions that
the City Council feels can be used to control such problem behavior once expansion is granted.
This City compensates the NB Police Dept and NB Planning Dept very well for their expertise in matters
that they have been executing for the City for years.
So why is it you doubt them and why do their recommendations mean so little to you?
And what other matters should we, as a Community, second guess NBPD and NB Planning on ....?
Please explain to me and the Community why you have little faith in the NBPD and NB Planning?

For the Public Record:
In reference to the Malarky's expansion appeal to Council. I would like to support Ms. Koller's and Mr. Wetherholt's
concerns regarding this bar.
I would like to add that granting Mr. Marovics request will be setting another bad precedent for this city and our
community.
Club Three Thirty Three just recently requested an extension of their patio hours and they were denied due to
community concern from Linda Isle. In my opinion, Linda Isle residents concerns are given more weight than those
on the Peninsula, not by the Planning Commission but by the ultimate authority, our City Council.
As per the article in the Daily Pilot:
"We were pleased that the commission listened to the arguments that we had," said Donald McCalla, who has lived in
his Linda Isle home for more than two decades.
His home faces the restaurant, about 200 feet away across the water, and takes the brunt of the noise caused by the
late -night crowd that fills the patio past the allowed howl, he said.
Three homes on Linda Isle face 3- Thirty -3, with the other affected homes facing Bayside Drive currently not
occupied, said Linda Isle Homeowner's Assn. President Donna Viana, who lives on the island down the street from
those homes.
"You're going to have some people outside making noise, yes, that's going to happen," Viana said. "But this is inside
and those windows remain open past the time they are supposed to be closed and directly face the bedrooms of the
people on the island."
"A deal is a deal." Viana said.
McCalla said that he reported almost 20 noise disturbances after 9:30 p.m. caused by 3- Thirty -3 patrons from March
2010 to September 2010, he said.
But Linda Isle residents dispute that claim, saying that the patrons on the patio are there for drinks, not food and cause
noise after patio hours should be over.
"There is no tine dining going on out there after 9:30 p.m.," Viana said. "It's a party place. They don't call it a club,
but that's what it is."
Their concerns seem to mirror those of the residents on the Peninsula, yet they are not mocked by the owner of Club
Three Thirty Three or the press.
By granting Mr. Marovies request you will be opening up a Pandora's box for every other bar to want to expand, if not
granted their wish? They will all use the Malarky's decision to appeal, as well they should, as it seems you would be
giving preferential treatment over one drinking establishment for another, based on their location in Newport Beach.
Please consider your actions carefully, they will have a long lasting effect on not only Peninsula residents but all other
Newport residents who are in close proximity to bars.
Thank you,
Lori Morris

For the Public Record:
Having followed the history of the Malarky's request for expansion from the first Planning Commission meeting until present it is
apparent that the owner of Malarky's is not willing to compromise and is adamant about getting his occupancy increase for his
bar.
I would hope that the Council would consider the evaluation and facts presented by the Police Department and put forward by
our own Planning Commission and limit the occupancy. The residents of the Peninsula have been working very hard to effect
positive change to our local area and want this community to be more than just the local dumping ground for bars and other
businesses that fail to address the community's needs. I also believe this increase in bar occupancy would never be considered
if it were in any other area of Newport Beach.
In consideration of this CUP would it be possible for the city of Newport Beach to considered the same policy that the City of
Huntington Beach Officers have as a tool, when an officer comes into contact with highly intoxicated person/persons PD can
ask where they have been drinking so as to identify the problem bars in town who continue to over serve their patrons? This
seems like a very simple and effective tool to promote safety and would clarify the bars who continue to neglect accountability
and respect our neighborhoods.
One other fact to consider is the practice of cycling fresh patrons on big Holidays. Residents who were at Malarky's on St.
Patty's day this past year witnessed the management ask large amounts of patrons to leave at one time and then invite "new
fresh" patrons in who had been standing in line. When this practice is used in this industry it is apparent the amount of
intoxicated patrons leaving the bars is increased by two or threefold. Is this what we want in our local neighborhoods?
Thank you for your consideration.
Respectfully,
Cindy Koller
