HomeMy WebLinkAbout16 - Introduction of a Cottage Preservation Ordinance (PA2019-181) - Public HearingNOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Tuesday, January 28, 2020, at 7:00 p.m., a public hearing will be
conducted in the City Council Chambers at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach. The City Council of the
City of Newport Beach will consider the following application:
Cottage Preservation Code and LCP Amendments — Amendments to the Local Coastal Program
(Coastal Land Use Plan and Implementation Plan), Newport Beach Municipal Code Title 20 (Planning and
Zoning), and Title 15 (Building and Construction) to incentivize the preservation of cottages. Specifically, the
amendments would allow larger additions of up to fifty (50) percent of the existing floor area of a residential
development that is nonconforming due to parking when the project would result in the preservation of
the cottage character and a building envelope representative of traditional development patterns in the
City. Eligible projects would also receive relief from a building code valuation threshold, which requires
building code compliance as new construction.
Pursuant to the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the
amendment is statutorily exempt from the CEQA in accordance with Section 21065 of CEQA and State
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15378. The proposed action is also exempt

Preservation Code and LCP Amendments.
