ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The City prepared and certified an Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
(SCH#2013111022) for the proposed Lido House Hotel project in accordance with the
California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (CEQA), as amended (Public Resources
Code Section 21000 et seq.), and the State CEQA Guidelines for Implementation of
CEQA (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et seq.). The analyses
showed that the proposed project would not result in any significant and unavoidable
impacts and all potential impacts would be reduced to a less than significant level with
the incorporation of several mitigation measures. Although the proposed amendments
have changed from "mixed-use" to "visitor -serving commercial," the modified
amendments do not change the development potential or allowed uses. Therefore,
modifying the previously approved amendments would not result in any potential
environmental impacts not previously considered in the Lido House Hotel EIR.
Staff recommends the City Council find the previous certified Final EIR adequate and
further find that, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15062, the changes to the
project are not substantial, as they do not involve new significant effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, and therefore, a
subsequent EIR does not need to be prepared.
NOTICING:
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).

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING ZONING
CODE AMENDMENT NO. CA2012-003 FOR THE FORMER
CITY HALL COMPLEX LOCATED AT 3300 NEWPORT
BOULEVARD AND 475 32ND STREET (PA2012-031)
WHEREAS, On April 24, 2012, the City of Newport Beach (City) initiated amendments
of the General Plan, Coastal Land Use Plan (CLUP), and Zoning Code (collectively,
Amendments) with respect to the former City Hall Complex (Property), legally described in
Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated by reference, located at the northeast corner of
the intersection of Newport Boulevard and 32nd Street at 3300 Newport Boulevard and 475
32nd Street;
WHEREAS, the Amendments change the land use categories and zoning district from
Public Facilities to Mixed Use. Additionally, the CLUP amendment modifies Policy 4.4.2-1
allowing buildings to exceed the 35 -foot Shoreline Height Limit;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 65352.3 of the California Government Code, the
appropriate tribal contacts identified by the Native American Heritage Commission were
provided notice of the proposed General Plan Amendment on October 4, 2012. The City
received an inquiry from one tribal representative. The Native American representative
indicated that he could coordinate monitoring services during grading/construction if it is
determined that such monitoring is required. The tribal representative did not indicate any
knowledge of the presence of any significant cultural or archaeological resources on the
Property. The Property is located within a highly developed area and has been completely
disturbed. As such, impacts related to archaeological resources are not expected to occur.
However, in the unlikely event that buried cultural resources or human remains are
discovered during excavation activities, Mitigation Measure CUL -1 requires an archeologist
and Native American Monitor be present during earth removal or disturbance activities
related to rough grading and other excavation for utilities, and as such, a less than significant
impact would occur in this regard;
WHEREAS, on April 25, 2013, the City sent a surplus land notice consistent with
California Government Code Section 54222. No entities expressed an interest in acquiring
the Property for the development of affordable housing, parks and open space, or schools;
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on August 11, 2014, in
the City Hall Council Chambers, 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, California. A notice
of the time, place and purpose of the public hearing was provided in accordance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the Newport Beach Municipal Code
(NBMC). The environmental documents for the project comprising the Draft Environmental
Impact Report (DEIR), Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) which consists of
Responses to Comments, and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), the
draft Findings and Facts in Support of Findings (Findings), Errata, staff report, and evidence,
1
3-4
ORDINANCE NO. 2015-35
both written and oral, were presented to and considered by the Planning Commission at
these hearings;
WHEREAS, On August 11, 2014, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No.
1952 by a vote of 5-0 recommending certification of the Lido House Hotel Final EIR
(Commissioner Hillgren abstained and Commissioner Kramer absent) (ER2014-003, SCH
No. 2013111022) the Former City Hall Amendments (PA2012-031) and Lido House Hotel
(PA2013-217).
WHEREAS, on August 11, 2014, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No.
1953 by a vote of 5-0 recommending approval of the Former City Hall Amendments
(Commissioner Hillgren abstained and Commissioner Kramer absent) (PA2012-031) without
a mixed-use/residential component and approval of the Lido House Hotel (PA2013-217);
WHEREAS, on September 9, 2014, in the City Hall Council Chambers, at 100 Civic
Center Drive, Newport Beach, California, the City Council held a public hearing to consider the
Amendments and a FEIR prepared for the project. A notice of the time, place and purpose of
the public hearing was provided in accordance with CEQA and the NBMC;
WHEREAS, on September 9, 2014, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2014-80
certifying the Lido House Hotel FEIR No. ER2014-003 (SCH No. 2013111022) to be in
compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and City Council Policy K-3;
WHEREAS, on September 9, 2014, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2014-81
approving General Plan Amendment No. GP2012-002 and Coastal Land Use Plan
Amendment No. LC 2012-001. These amendments were adopted contingent upon approval
by the California Coastal Commission;
WHEREAS, on September 23, 2014, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2014-16
adopting Zoning Code Amendment No. CA2013-003;
WHEREAS, on September 24, 2014, the City submitted Coastal Land Use Plan
Amendment No. LC 2012-001 (LCP-5-NPB-14-0831-3) to the California Coastal
Commission;
WHEREAS, on October 7, 2015, the California Coastal Commission certified the City's
application request (LCP-5-NPB-14-0831-3) with suggested modifications to the proposed
CLUP land use category and Policy 4.4.2-1. The suggested modifications changed the
proposed CLUP land use category from Mixed -Use to Visitor -Serving Commercial, Lido
Village. This change in policy language allows for the same range of allowed commercial
uses as the City -approved amendment and prohibits all forms of timeshares or fractional
ownership visitor accommodations. The modification also does not increase development
intensity beyond what the City authorized. The suggested modifications to CLUP Policy
4.4.2-1 provided increased setbacks from streets and limited the area and size of structures
that could exceed 35 feet in height. The modification of CLUP Policy 4.4.2-1 is more
restrictive than the City -approved amendment but still allows the proposed Lido House Hotel;
2
3-5
ORDINANCE NO. 2015-35
WHEREAS, the certified FEIR showed that the proposed project would not result in
any significant and unavoidable impacts and all potential impacts would be reduced to a less
than significant level with the incorporation of several mitigation measures. Although the
proposed amendments have changed from "mixed-use" to "visitor -serving commercial," the
modified amendments: 1) do not change the development potential or intensity of use; 2) do
not significantly change allowed uses; and 3) are more restrictive in terms of setbacks and
structure heights. Therefore, modifying the previously approved amendments consistent with
the Coastal Commission's suggested modifications are not substantial and the FEIR does not
require revisions as the changes to the project do not result in new impacts or increases in
the severity of impacts previously identified and addressed in the certified Lido House Hotel
FEIR (SCH No. 2013111022);
WHEREAS, on November 5, 2015, the Planning Commission held a public hearing in
the City Hall Council Chambers, 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, California to consider
modifications of the Amendments as a result of the Coastal Commission's action. A notice of
the time, place and purpose of the hearing was provided in accordance with the NBMC.
Evidence both written and oral was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission
during the hearing. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Planning Commission adopted
Resolution No. 1999 by a vote of 4 ayes, 0 noes, 2 absent and 1 abstaining recommending
approval of the revised Amendments making them consistent with the suggested
modifications from the California Coastal Commission;
WHEREAS, on November 24, 2015, the City Council held a public hearing in the City
Hall Council Chambers, 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach, California to consider the
revised Amendments. A notice of the time, place and purpose of the hearing was provided in
accordance with Newport Beach Municipal Code. Evidence both written and oral was
presented to and considered by the City Council during the hearing. At the conclusion of the
hearing, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2015-104 approving General Plan
Amendment No. GP2012-002 and Coastal Land Use Plan Amendment No. LC 2012-001
incorporating the suggested modifications from the Coastal Commission,
WHEREAS, Amendments to the General Plan are legislative acts. Neither the City nor
State Planning and Zoning Law set forth any required findings for either approval or denial of
such Amendments otherwise found to be within the public interest;
WHEREAS, the Property is located in proximity to commercial services, recreational
uses, and transit opportunities with routine bus service provided along Newport Boulevard.
The proposed General Plan Amendment provides for variety of land uses for the site
including a luxury hotel that will promote revitalization of the Lido Village area while ensuring
neighborhood compatibility. The proposed hotel will serve visitors and residents and increase
access opportunities in the Coastal Zone;
WHEREAS, the proposed amendment of Coastal Land Use Plan Policy 4.4.2-1, as
modified as suggested by the California Coastal Commission, to provide an exception to the
35 -foot height limit of the Shoreline Height Limitation Zone is necessary and appropriate to
accommodate the proposed intensity of use, significant open space on the site and the
project's lack of impact to public views. This finding is based upon the public view impact
analysis within Section 5.2 (Aesthetics Light/Glare) of the Lido House Hotel FEIR showing
3
3-6
ORDINANCE NO. 2015-35
that there will not be a significant impact to protected public views from General Plan and
Coastal Land Use Plan designated vantages. Additionally, there are no public views through
the Property from abutting roadways and public spaces; and
WHEREAS, Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15091, the City Council has
reviewed and adopted the CEQA Findings and Facts in Support of Findings as adopted in
City Council Resolution No. 2015-104, entitled Findings and Facts in Support of Findings for
the Lido House Hotel, Final Environmental Impact Report, State Clearinghouse No.
2013111022, which findings shall be incorporated herein by reference.
WHEREAS, Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15062, the changes to the project
are not substantial, as they do not involve new significant effects or a substantial increase in
the severity of previously identified significant effects, and therefore, a subsequent EIR does
not need to be prepared.

Insider's Guide
From: Kiff, Dave
Sent: Friday, December 04, 2015 11:10 AM
Subject: Insider's Guide - Tuesday, December 8, 2015
A pleasant Friday to you.
Here's what may be of interest to you on the Newport Beach City Council meeting of Tuesday, December 8th,
2015. Meeting information is at the end of this e-mail.
This is the City Council's final planned meeting of 2015. The second meeting in December is not typically held, as it falls
close to Christmas. Additionally, this final meeting of the year is predominantly an organizational meeting whereby the
Council nominates and votes on a new mayor and mayor pro tem. Typically, these positions are rotated annually.
Therefore, there is no Study Session at this meeting. The Regular Session starts at 6:15 p.m. and has a small handful of
items not related to organizational business:
• Second reading for the land use amendments for the Lido House Hotel.
• A big dollar item is involved on a long-awaited plan to improve the streetscape and repave the area around 15th
Street and Balboa. This is a really nice improvement coming.
• Some early viewing of a few "tentative agreements" with some labor groups appears —this allows the Council and
public to see estimated costs and terms well before the final vote (which would be in January 2016).
• our annual distribution of community grants occurs at this meeting (about $40,000 each year).
• An expenditure to provide a different type of vest for our police officers is also on the agenda.
Then the reorganization occurs. The vote for the new mayor comes first, then the new mayor presides over the election
of the mayor pro tem. Then folks decide where they want to sit for the next year. Because this is a year in between
elections, the speechifying will likely be less/shorter in number and duration. Nothing like last year, when four folks left
the Council and four folks joined it.
Some notes:
• Lots of terrific events are this weekend (tree lightings, Christmas walk, park opening, etc) — the listing is
here: http://newportbeachca.gov/Home/Components/News/News/4548/2720. A gold star to whomever makes it
to all of them (which I think is impossible).
• The Finance Committee meets this coming Thursday, December 10th, in Conference Room 2E of the Civic Center at
4:00 p.m.
• Quorum permitting, we hope to have an Aviation Committee meeting on Monday, December 14th at 4:00 p.m. in
the Civic Center's community room. All are welcome.
• Star Wars, the Force Awakens releases in the late evening of December 17th — all city offices will be closed. O
• Because the Guide is wrapping it up for 2015, 1 will wish you and your families a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah,
and good start to 2016. During the week between Christmas and New Year's, most city offices will be closed, but
the libraries will be open some of those days with some shorter hours. Check their website for more information. If
the long-awaited EI Nino rains come, we'll be out in low-lying places (um, about 40% of town) if those come with
king tides at the end of December. So while offices might be closed, work will get done.
• Lastly, I want to honor and recognize two of my colleagues who are retiring as the month ends —they are Police
Chief Jay Johnson and Deputy City Manager Terri Cassidy. They both have long and storied careers in public
service, and I will miss them both a great deal. Their service to Newport Beach has been so valuable.
• 1 need to close with something more sobering. It is hard to see the possible links to terrorism in Wednesday's
deaths in a public building in San Bernardino, and not to think of all of us — residents, customers, business owners,
city employees, our Council members and Commissioners, our first responders, and more — as we digest that
through our own lenses. Please - if you see something, say something. You might think that you shouldn't bother
the NBPD about it, but know that it's not a bother. That's what the 644-3717 number is there for.
As always, thanks for reading and have a nice weekend. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to family, friends and
members of your HOA if you represent one. I always like hearing from you, too, so please don't hesitate to ask a
question or offer a comment.
Sincerely,
Dave Kiff
City Manager

City Council Meeting Information: The Newport Beach City Council meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of most months
(the exceptions are August and December). Typically, there is a Study Session that starts at 4:00 p.m. Study sessions
are times for the Council to take a deeper look at a specific issue, or hear a presentation, that might eventually lead to a
specific and more formal action. A closed session often follows the Study Session. Closed sessions are typically to
address legal, personnel, and other matters where additional confidentiality is important. The Regular (evening)
Session typically starts at 7:00 p.m., and often has a specific listing of 20-40 different items ready for formal
votes. Items on the "Consent Calendar" are heard all at once, unless a Council member has removed (aka "pulled") an
item from the Consent Calendar for specific discussion and separate vote. If an item on the agenda is recommended to
be "continued", it means that the item won't be heard nor voted on that evening, but will be pushed forward to another
noticed meeting.
Public Comment is welcomed at both the Study Session and the Regular Session. The public can comment on any item
on the agenda. If you want to comment on a Consent Calendar item that was not pulled from the Consent Calendar by a
Council Member, you will want to do so at the time listed on the agenda — right before the Council votes on the entire
Consent Calendar (it's Roman Numeral XIII on the posted agenda). If an item is pulled, the Mayor will offer that
members of the public can comment as that specific item is heard separately. Additionally, there is a specific section of
Public Comment for items not on the agenda, but on a subject of some relationship to the city government.
The Council meets in the Council Chambers at 100 Civic Center Drive, off of Avocado between San Miguel and East Coast
Highway. There is plenty of parking in the parking structure behind City Hall. You are always welcome to attend in
person, but you can also watch on TV (Channels 3/31) or on your computer.
This Insider's Guide is not an attempt to summarize every item on the Agenda —just the ones that seem of specific
interest to Dave. You are encouraged to read the full agenda if you'd like —to do so, click here:
