Introduction and Purpose of the Planned Community Development Plan (PCDP) A. Introduction The Back Bay Landing site is envisioned to be developed as an integrated, mixed-use waterfront village on an approximately 7-acre portion of a 31.5-acre parcel located adjacent to the Upper Newport Bay in the City of Newport Beach. The City of Newport Beach Municipal Code allows a Planned Community Development Plan (PCDP) to address land use designations and regulations in Planned Communities. The Back Bay Landing PCDP serves as the controlling zoning ordinance for the site and is authorized and intended to implement the provisions of the Newport Beach General Plan and Coastal Land Use Plan. The Back Bay Landing PCDP Design Guidelines provide a comprehensive vision of the physical implementation of the project and have been drafted to assist the City and community to visualize the architectural theme and desired character of the development. B. Project Location The Back Bay Landing Planned Community (PC-9) is located within the City of Newport Beach, in Orange County, California. The approximately 7-acre primary project area is generally located north of East Coast Highway and northwest of Bayside Drive in the western portion of the City, as shown o n Exhibit 1, Location Map. The project area is bounded by the Upper Newport Back Bay to the north and west, the Newport Dunes Waterfront Resort and the Bayside Village Mobile Home Park to the east, East Coast Highway and various marina commercial and restaurant uses south of the Highway to the southeast. As shown on Exhibit 2, Planning Areas, the Back Bay Landing Planned Community is comprised of five distinct Planning Areas: Mixed-Use Area (PA 1), Recreational and Marine Commercial (PA 2), Existing Private Marina Access and Beach (PA 3), Marina and Bayside Village Mobile Home Park Storage and Guest Parking (PA 4), and Submerged Fee-Owned Lands (PA 5). C. Purpose and Objectives The purpose of the PCDP is to establish appropriate zoning regulations governing land use and development of the site consistent with the City of Newport Beach General Plan and Coastal Land Use Plan. The PCDP provides a vision for the land uses on the site, sets the development standards and design guidelines for specific project approvals at the Site Development Review and Coastal Development Permit (CDP) approval stage, and regulates the long term operation of the developed site. 3-26 Back Bay Landing PCDP 2 Implementation of the PCDP will: - Provide a high quality mixed-use, marine-related, visitor-serving commercial development with integrated residential units and a unified architectural and landscape theme. - Implement the MU-W2 (Mixed Use Water-Related 2) General Plan and MU-W (Mixed Use Water Related) Coastal Land Use Plan categories on an underutilized bayfront location in a manner that provides for commercial development on or near the bay in a manner that will encourage the continuation of coastal-dependent and coastal-related land uses and visitor-serving uses, as well as allow for the development of mixed-use structures with residential uses above the ground floor. Freestanding residential uses shall be prohibited. - Maintain and expand core coastal dependent and coastal-related land uses, including the development of marina parking and enclosed dry stack boat storage and launching facility. - Provide new housing opportunities in response to demand for housing, reduce vehicle trips and encourage active lifestyles by increasing the opportunity for residents to live in proximity to jobs, services, entertainment, and recreation. - Protect and enhance significant visual resources from identified public vantage points, such as Coast Highway, Castaways Park, and Coast Highway-Bay Bridge, to the bay and the cliffs of upper Newport Beach through view corridors designed into the project. New public view opportunities will be created on-site. - Expand bayfront access to and along the bay where it does not exist at the present time, in a manner that protects environmental study areas (ESA) and/or environmentally sensitive habitat areas (ESHA) and does not adversely impact existing private residences adjacent to the site. - Provide continuous public coastal access with a new minimum 12-foot- wide bayfront access promenade along the bayfront edge of Planning Areas 1, 2, and 3. This new, public bayfront promenade will link the public docks and marina property south of the Coast Highway-Bay Bridge along the bayfront, to the Newport Dunes recreational area. In addition, bike lanes and pedestrian access will be provided along Bayside Drive from the intersection of Bayside Drive/East Coast Highway intersection running northerly to the terminus of Bayside Drive at the Newport Dunes recreational area. 3-27 Back Bay Landing PCDP 3 D. Relationship to the Newport Beach Municipal Code Whenever the development regulations contained in this PCDP conflict with the regulations of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the regulations contained in this PCDP shall take precedence. The Municipal Code shall regulate all development within the PCDP when such regulations are not provided within the PCDP. All construction within the Back Bay Landing PCDP (PC-9) shall be in compliance with the California Building Code, California Fire Code, and all other ordinances adopted by the City pertaining to construction and safety features. All words and phrases used in this Back Bay Landing PCDP shall have the same meaning and definition as used in the City of Newport Beach Zoning Code unless defined differently in Section VIII, Definitions. E. Relationship to Design Guidelines Development within the site shall be regulated by both the Development Plan and the Design Guidelines. 3-28 Back Bay Landing PCDP 4 II. Development Limits and Land Use Plan The development limits in this Development Plan are consistent with those established by the General Plan and are identified in the following Table 1, Development Limits by Planning Area.

P. Sea Level Rise and Shoreline Management A sea level rise and shoreline management plan shall be prepared for the site and submitted with the Site Development Review application. The plan shall address shoreline areas of the site subject to tidal action, flooding, wave hazards and erosion, and incorporate measures to adapt to sea level rise over time and provide for the long term protection and provision of public improvements, coastal access, public opportunities for coastal recreation, and coastal resources including beach and shoreline habitat. 3-45 Back Bay Landing PCDP 21 V. Design Guidelines The Back Bay Landing Design Guidelines are intended to express the desired character of the future mixed-use waterfront village. These guidelines set parameters for future design efforts and help achieve overall consistency and quality of architectural design and landscape features at build-out. They also explore the aesthetic quality and functionality of the upper limit of acceptable development intensity, and are structured to allow the City considerable flexibility in review of future project submittals and subsequent approvals. All development within the Planned Community shall be in conformance with these Design Guidelines. The purpose of the Design Guidelines is:  To provide the City of Newport Beach, the California Coastal Commission, and future residents and visitors with the necessary assurances that, when completed, the development will be built in accordance with the design character proposed herein;  To provide guidance to developers, builders, engineers, architects, landscape architects and other professionals in order to maintain the desired design character and appearance of the project, as well as expand upon these concepts in order to maximize the success of the development consistent with market needs, aesthetic satisfaction, and community goals;  To provide guidance to the City Staff, Planning Commission, City Council members and the California Coastal Commission in the review of future development submissions; and  To encourage building plans that allow flexibility for innovative and creative design solutions that respond to contemporary market trends. A. Architectural Theme The development shall be designed with a Coastal architectural theme. This architectural theme is influenced by the marine climate of the California coastline, with varied historical vernacular and casually elegant palette, with building forms and massing that define and create unique and often seamless indoor/outdoor spaces. The project will follow principles of quality design, exhibiting a high level of architectural standards and shall be compatible with the surrounding area, sensitive to scale, proportion, and identity with a focus on place-making. Massing offsets, variation of roof lines, varied textures, openings, recesses, and design accents on all building elevations shall be provided to enhance the architectural design. The intent is not to select a historically specific 3-46 Back Bay Landing PCDP 22 or rigid architectural style for the project, but to create an active, mixed-use village. The project should accommodate marine-oriented and visitor-serving retail, restaurants, enclosed dry stack boat storage, and residential uses, while integrating the public spaces, bayfront promenade and plaza in a pedestrian- friendly manner. The “village look” may be expressed through several techniques. Visual interest may be created by multiple one-, two- and three-level buildings, with varied roof heights and planes. Light and shadows may be created through the use of trellises, decks, and canopies. The planes of the buildings should include recesses and vertical elements to create the village feeling. Varied roof heights should communicate the break-up of architectural forms. The parking structure shall be designed to add to the public and visitor-serving retail experience and be easily accessible. The project’s architectural style, with the recommended use of modern or traditional, sustainable materials, should blend in color and form with existing similarly themed facilities within Newport Beach, and provide a high standard of quality for future neighboring development. Sample imagery is provided on Exhibit 11, Architectural Theme. B. Site Planning 1. As illustrated in Exhibit 12, Conceptual Site Plan, the development shall be designed as an integrated, mixed-use waterfront village that encourages public access to and along the bayfront. 2. A public bayfront promenade shall be developed between the Balboa Marina development to the south and the Newport Dunes and the regional trail system to the east. Special features of this public bayfront promenade shall include coastal plazas, vista points and connections with City/County trails and Newport Dunes as shown on Exhibit 5, Public Spaces. 3. Back Bay Landing restaurants, visitor-serving commercial and plaza areas shall be accessible to the community by public and private vehicular transportation, pedestrian and bike paths, and public dock space. 4. Scenic view corridors should be incorporated throughout the project to maintain or enhance existing coastal views from East Coast Highway as shown on Exhibit 13, East Coast Highway View Corridors. 5. Outdoor dining and plaza areas shall be designed to interface with the street and bayfront. Siting of outdoor dining facilities shall minimize potential impacts on occupants of adjacent residential units. 3-47 Back Bay Landing PCDP 23 6. The development shall create a strong pedestrian interface with the waterfront, maximizing accessibility and providing visual corridors enhancing the public/visitor experience. 7. Buildings should be arranged to create opportunities for public gathering spaces, encourage outdoor living and invite patronage. Mixed-use areas should emphasize pedestrian orientation by utilizing features such as plazas, courtyards, interior walkways, trellises, seating, fountains, and other similar elements. 8. The development shall promote connectivity throughout the village and to adjacent developments and trails systems through the use of shared facilities such as driveways, parking areas, pedestrian plazas and walkways. 9. Ground level equipment, refuse collection areas, storage tanks, infrastructure equipment and utility vaults should be screened from public right-of-way views with dense landscaping and/or walls of materials and finishes compatible with adjacent buildings. 10. Site-specific analyses (wind patterns, noise assessments, etc.) and special design features shall be incorporated into the proposed buildings surrounding the OCSD pump station facility to offset potential noise and odor control issues associated with the existing operations of the facility. Indoor air conditioned spaces within the development shall include the installation of odor filters, such as activated carbon filters or similar, to filter indoor air. C. Building Massing 1. Avoid long, continuous blank walls, by incorporating a variety of materials, design treatments and/or modulating and articulating elevations to promote visual interest and reduce massing. 2. Layering of wall planes and volumes are encouraged to provide rhythm, dynamic building forms, and shadows. 3. Building massing should consist of a mix of heights to add visual interest and enhance views to the bay above or between buildings. 4. Taller buildings should use articulation to create visual interest. Articulation should include vertical and horizontal offsets, use of multiple materials and finishes, and the entry/corner elements. 5. Towers or other vertical/prominent building features should be used to accentuate key elements such as building entries, pedestrian nodes, plazas, and courtyards. 3-48 Back Bay Landing PCDP 24 6. To maintain a low profile at the corner of East Coast Highway and Bayside Drive, the development should consist of reduced height commercial retail buildings closest to the intersection and may step up in height further away from the intersection, as shown on Exhibit 3, Building Heights. D. Facade Treatments 1. Ground floors of commercial buildings should have storefront design with large windows and entries encouraging indoor and outdoor retailing. 2. Architectural elements that create sheltered pedestrian areas are encouraged. 3. The quality of the pedestrian environment should be activated by architecturally vibrant storefronts with features such as planter walls, outdoor seating and dining spaces, enhanced trellises, accent or festive lighting, awnings or canopies, large transparent windows, recessed openings and entry ways. 4. Create a unified and consistent alignment of building facades that define and address the street and waterfront. 5. Horizontal definition between uses, generally between the first and second floor is strongly encouraged. 6. For residential uses, balconies and sill treatments are encouraged on upper stories to articulate the facade. 7. Building facades should respect the public realm edge by controlling and limiting encroachments that could impede pedestrian connectivity and retail exposure. Building designs will be encouraged to support and activate the public realm and plazas, and encourage accessibility. 8. “Back of House Areas” and service corridors shall be avoided along primary street and waterfront elevations. 9. Roof-mounted mechanical equipment shall not be visible in any direction from a public right-of-way, as may be seen from a point 6 feet above ground level, including from the Coast Highway-Bay Bridge curb elevation. In addition, screening of the top of the roof-mounted mechanical equipment may be required if necessary to protect views. 10. Subject to the approval of the OCSD, the existing building exterior of the OCSD facility located adjacent to East Coast Highway and at the property’s southwestern boundary shall undergo aesthetic improvements (refacing, reroofing, etc.) to reflect the architectural design standards contained in this 3-49 Back Bay Landing PCDP 25 PCDP. Should the OCSD facility be relocated and/or reconstructed, the architectural design of the structure shall be compatible with the architectural design of the Back Bay Landing development and design standards contained in this PCDP or architectural design of adjacent developments, as determined appropriate – during the Site Development Review process. E. Public Views 1. As illustrated on Exhibit 13, East Coast Highway View Corridors, buildings should be oriented to maximize view opportunities while minimizing the visual impact of the building on existing view sheds. 2. Buildings proposed adjacent to the Coast Highway-Bay Bridge shall preserve coastal views that are afforded due to the differential in height between the elevation of the bridge and the elevation of the site. The public coastal views shall be consistent with Section 4.4.1-8 of the Newport Beach Coastal Land Use Plan policies. 3. A pedestrian view corridor shall be designed at the southeast corner of Bayside Drive and East Coast Highway, shown as View Corridor 2 on Exhibit 13, East Coast Highway View Corridors, allowing northbound pedestrians and motorists to see into the project and the coastal view beyond. 4. The enclosed dry stack boat storage building shall be designed with multiple heights to create a distinct view corridor from East Coast Highway to the Bay, illustrated on Exhibit 13, East Coast Highway View Corridors. This corridor shall be visible to north and south bound pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists. 5. The development shall be designed to frame existing bay views and should create new bay views where they are currently blocked by fencing and outdoor vehicle/boat storage. F. Parking and Parking Structure 1. Parking areas and structures shall promote efficient circulation for vehicles and pedestrians. 2. Convenient, well-marked and attractive pedestrian access shall be provided from parking areas and structures to buildings. 3. Parking facilities should be physically separated for non-residential uses and residential uses, except for residential guest parking. If enclosed parking is provided for an entire mixed-use complex, separate areas/levels shall be provided for non-residential and residential uses with separate building entrances, whenever possible. 3-50 Back Bay Landing PCDP 26 4. A semi-subterranean level should be incorporated, if feasible, to minimize height and bulk of parking structure. 5. Parking structures shall be screened from the public right–of-way to the maximum extent feasible. Portions of the structure that cannot be screened shall incorporate decorative screening, landscape walls, artistic murals, or application of stylized facades. 6. Commercial retail and residential uses should wrap and mask the parking structure. 7. The parking structure shall complement the design vocabulary of the attached or adjacent buildings, and incorporate form, materials, color, and details from the attached or adjacent buildings. 8. Adequate parking that is located within a convenient distance from the use it is intended to serve shall be provided for all uses proposed on-site, as well as marina users, displaced Bayside Village Mobile Home Park guest parking, and for public access. General parking locations are shown on Exhibit 14, Parking Plan. 9. The upper level of the parking structure shall be designed to eliminate vehicle headlight and rooftop lighting spill-over. 10. To encourage alternative means of transportation, the parking structure shall incorporate bicycle parking storage accommodations, and electric vehicle charging stations. G. Public Spaces The development shall provide extensive outdoor public spaces, as shown on Exhibit 5, Public Spaces, and described below. 1. An elevated coastal public view plaza is strongly encouraged. This elevated plaza can provide exceptional public coastal view opportunities of Newport Harbor and Upper Newport Bay. 2. A pedestrian and automobile plaza should be incorporated into the design that seamlessly and safely blends pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular movement. This plaza may provide an opportunity for valet parking, provided a valet operation plan is reviewed and approved by the City. Bollards and potted plants should define the plaza edge in a park-like setting and should visually connect the east and west ends of the mixed-use project area as the center point of the project, while still allowing unhindered pedestrian movement to the retail areas and public bayfront promenade. 3-51 Back Bay Landing PCDP 27 3. Restaurants shall be designed to be accessible from the public bayfront promenade and should provide both indoor and outdoor dining areas with scenic coastal views of the bay. 4. Vendor carts selling specialty items are encouraged in the outside plazas and along retail walkways to enhance the shopping or dining experience by activating the plaza areas. However, vendor carts shall not be permitted within the 12-foot-wide public bayfront promenade. 5. Passive recreation opportunities and waterfront viewing shall be provided along the public bayfront promenade. 6. A public launching area and parking for kayak and paddleboard users shall be incorporated into the development. 7. New marina boat-slip tenant lockers shall be provided near the entry to the Bayside Village Marina. 8. Public restrooms for visitors to the site shall be provided along the public bayfront promenade. H. Landscaping 1. The landscaping should reflect the project’s coastal marine location and provide visual ties to the coastal bluffs, sand beaches, tidelands and wetlands, tide pools, local marinas and sea life. 2. Creativity in combining plant materials to emulate natural features is encouraged. Some examples of possible design strategies are using swaying grasses to emulate water movement, using water fountains to emulate the sound and rhythm of waves, and emulating sea colors in plant selection. 3. The use of water fountains, waterfalls, water sculptures, or water features are encouraged. 4. Marine murals and other forms of public art are encouraged throughout the project. 5. Landscaping should include tree plantings around buildings to enhance architectural character and provide shade in the summer and sun in the winter. 6. California-friendly plant species with low watering requirements and characteristics that are compatible with the climate, soils, and setting should compose the majority of the plant palate. 3-52 Back Bay Landing PCDP 28 7. The irrigation system shall be designed, constructed, managed, and maintained to achieve a high level of water efficiency. 8. Landscaping in the view corridors should not block these views but rather frame and enhance them. 9. Green walls, water features and selective placement of potted plants and trees can improve and soften the appearance of the buildings while preserving and enhancing desired views. I. Hardscaping 1. An enhanced permeable paving should be used at the project entry to create rich texture and color while also helping to mitigate urban runoff. 2. Pedestrian spaces should be developed with specialty paving to provide interest and definition and compliment architectural and landscape features. 3. Selection of hardscape material should reflect the coastal marine theme of the project, for example: sand stone, sea glass, pebbles, drift wood, ocean/beach inspired colors or textures, etc. 4. Private streets, driveways, and drive aisles should be multi-purpose and accommodate pedestrian, bike, emergency vehicles, and slow automobile movements. Generous use of planters, large pots and bollards are encouraged with raised curbs only where necessary. J. Signs 1. The preferred approach to signing is through creating a strong architectural statement that announces development, rather than large distracting signs. 2. Monument signs identifying the development may be permitted at the primary entrance off Bayside Drive and possibly the optional secondary entrance off East Coast Highway, if approved. 3. Signage should be appropriately scaled to the building or surface onto which it is placed, should not obscure important architectural features, and should be readable by both pedestrians and drivers approaching the site. 4. Signage shall be integrated with the design and scale of the architecture. 5. A coordinated approach to signage throughout the development is particularly important due to the multiple storefronts that are envisioned. Signs of similar size, proportion, and materials should be used on each store. 3-53 Back Bay Landing PCDP 29 VI. Phasing The Back Bay Landing mixed-use development is anticipated to be developed as one phase during an 18- to 24-month construction period. The integrated mixed-use and parking structure combined with the relatively small site necessitates construction in a single phase. The Back Bay Landing development will necessitate the construction of a seawall/bulkhead, but does not include reconstruction of the existing Bayside Village Marina. The general sequence of construction is provided below although certain activities will overlap thereby reducing the total duration of the project.  Demolition – 1 month  Excavation and De-watering – 2 months  Infrastructure / Foundations – 6 months  Vertical Construction – 15 months  Final Landscaping – 3 months  Bayside Drive Roadway Improvements and Trail – 4 months  Reconfiguration of Lot Line Adjustment Area – 6 months 3-54 Back Bay Landing PCDP 30 VII.

Two alternatives are currently proposed to replace the capacity of the line and continue to provide reliable water service in case of an emergency to the western region of Newport Beach. Additionally, a new 8” water line will serve the proposed project and tie into the existing 12” water line in Bayside Drive. The increased demand on the existing line will be consistent with the proposed sewer generation rates. Water capacity is not anticipated to be an issue based on the redundant water transmission lines that surround the project site.
