The Planning Commission finds as follows: As part of the development and implementation of the Newport Beach General Plan, the Land Use Element has been prepared. The Land Use Element sets forth objectives, supporting policies and limitations for development in the City of Newport Beach, and the Land Use Element designates the general distribution and general location and extent of the uses of land and residential densities; and 2. The City's General Plan dictates that the City insure redevelopment of older or underutilized properties and preserve the value of property by allowing for some modest growth, while maintaining acceptable levels of traffic service. The implementation of the proposed project will not result in an increase in traffic and parking, and will have a less than significant impact on the projected capacity and levels of service of the circulation system. Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with this policy; and 3. The City's General Plan indicates that the City shall maintain suitable and adequate standards for landscaping, sign control, site and building design, parking and undergrounding of utilities to ensure that the quality and character of residential neighborhoods are maintained and that commercial and office projects are aesthetically pleasing and compatible with surrounding land uses. The proposed project is consistent with this policy; and '4. The Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan includes implementation guidelines that encourages refurbishment, remodeling and modest expansion of older, nonconforming buildings. The proposed project will result in the elimination of a nonconforming use that is compatible with surrounding residential land uses. The change of the land use designation of the subject property to Residential within the Local Coastal Plan shall only become effective upon the approval of Local Coastal Plan No. 2002 -001 by the California Coastal Commission; and, 5. The change in the designation of the land use within the Newport Shores Specific Plan will result in consistency between the General Plan and Zoning and further, will require development of the site to comply with the applicable City standards as outlined in the Zoning Code, for building height, setbacks. and required parking; and, 6. The proposed proposed project has been determined to be Categorically Exempt under the Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and the State CEQA Guidelines; and, Section 4. Based on the aforementioned findings, the Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council approve General Plan Amendment No. 2001 -003 as depicted in Attachment "A ", Local Coastal Plan No. 2001 -001 as depicted in Attachment `B ", and Code Amendment No. 2002 -002 as depicted in Attachment "C ".
