SUBJECT: Amendment to Municipal Code Section 12.44.027, Neighborhood
Enhancement Reserve
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce the following ordinance and pass to second reading on May 27, 2003.
An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Newport Beach Amending Section
12.44.027 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code Pertaining to Neighborhood
Enhancement Reserve.
DISCUSSION:
During discussion of revisions to the City Council Policy Manual at the Council meeting
of April 8, 2003, Council Member Webb requested that the Municipal Code be amended
with regard to boundaries of the two existing Neighborhood Enhancement Areas.
These two areas, West Newport and Balboa Peninsula, were established in 1995 and
1997, respectively, to allow for half the parking meter revenue from these areas to be
spent on a wider range of projects and services than off - street parking, with the goal of
revitalizing the areas. Council Member Webb requested that the boundaries be
adjusted to make them more clear and consistent with the general understanding of
where West Newport and the Balboa Peninsula are located.
The proposed ordinance makes the requested adjustments, with the following changes
being the most notable:
• Newport Shores is added to the West Newport area.
• Newport Island and the area between it and 32nd Street are transferred from the
Balboa Peninsula to the West Newport area.
• Peninsula Point east of "I" Street is added to the Balboa Peninsula area.
