WHEREAS, the Land Use and Residential Growth Elements of
the General Plan of the City of Newport Beach serve as a guide for
future development of property within the corporate limits of the
City; and
WHEREAS, the City of Newport Beach is presently involved
in the annexation of approximately 64 acres of unincorporated ter-

WHEREAS, the Land Use and Residential Growth Elements of
the City of Newport Beach General Plan contain guidelines for the
development of the County Triangle; and
WHEREAS, previously established land use patterns and
densities developed while this territory was subject to County

provisions relating to density limits and land use designations
for property within the County Triangle, and that an increase in
• allowable densities is in the best interest of the City of Newport
Beach, and approval of this General Plan amendment does not
reflect a change of policy by the City Council of the City of

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Newport Beach
has read, reviewed and considered the environmental documentation,
including public comments contained herein, consisting of an
Initial Study and Negation Declaration, copies of which are on
file in the office of the Planning Director of the City of Newport
Beach, prepared in conjunction with these proposed amendments, has
determined that the environmental documentation satisfies all of
the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) and the State EIR Guidelines (GUIDELINES) promulgated
pursuant to CEQA, and that the environmental documentation was
considered in the decisions reflected in this resolution; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that mitigation
measures, contained within the environmental documentation, and
which modify the project to require discretionary review of pro-
posed land use changes involving existing mobile home parks within
the County Triangle, reduce potentially significant environmental
effects to the extent that the project will not result in signifi-
cant environmental impacts,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of
the City of Newport Beach does hereby amend the Land Use Element
of the Newport Beach General Plan, as it relates to land use
within the County Triangle, to read as follows:
"County Triangle"
The area designated as the "County Triangle" has a combi-
nation of Industrial, Commercial and Residential uses. The area
west of Monrovia Avenue is designated for Industrial uses with a
maximum development intensity of 1.0 times the buildable area.
The area between Monrovia Avenue and Plancentia Avenue, with the
exception of the commercial area west of the intersection of
Placentia Avenue and Superior Avenue,, is designated Multiple -
Family Residential Uses. Due to historical precedents and estab-
lished land use patterns which developed prior to the annexation
of the "County Triangle ", the maximum Residential density permit-
ted is twenty (20) dwelling units per buildable area. The area
between Placentia Avenue and Superior Avenue and the Commercial
• area west of the intersection of Placentia Avenue and Superior
Avenue is designated Retail and Service Commercial with a maximum
development intensity of 1.0 times the buildable area.
In addition a mobilehome park overlay zone will be
developed that preserves the existing mobilehome uses and requires
discretionary review through a use permit to convert them to
another type of use.
