(b) The timing and pace of future development or redevelopment shall be limited and controlled to encourage phases and orderly development and to prohibit any premature development which would adversely affect the quality or efficiency of existing or planned public support systems. (c) The City shall encourage the growth of income producing developments to sustain a high revenue base for the provision of public support services only within those areas where the character, amount and location of such developments are compatible with surrounding land uses and the existing character of the community; and WHEREAS, Newport Center is a major planning area of income producing developments wherein the intensity and extent of such development should be established, and WHEREAS, traffic generation in relationship to the capacity of the surrounding street system is the major constraint to development of Newport Center; and • WHEREAS, a projection was made for the ultimate develop- ment at Newport Center during the preparation of the Land Use and Circulation Elements of the General Plan which was used as a basis for a traffic study done for the City by Alan M. Voorhees & Associates in 1974 and supplemented by a more detailed traffic C study done by Crommelin- Pringle & Associates, Inc. for The Irvine Company at the request of the City; and WHEREAS, both studies have indicated that the street system can be developed with a capacity sufficient to accommodate the traffic generated by the projected development of Newport Center,provided improvements to the system are made consistent with the official Circulation Element and coordinated with new development; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach considered the contents of this Resolution at its meeting of February 10, 1977 and recommended to the City Council that the City Council adopt a resolution establishing development limitations in Newport Center; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Newport Beach that it shall be the policy of the City to approve development in Newport Center which does not exceed the total projected intensity for Newport Center as identified on the attached Exhibit "A ". Changes to the types and location of uses may be made provided that an analysis of both location and intensity demonstrates that the traffic system is not adversely affected and that traffic generation as it affects the major intersections during critical peak periods does not exceed the capacities provided in the approved street development plan. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a program for development shall be established to assure that necessary improvements to the traffic system are coordinated with increases in traffic generation. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that each project shall also be examined for its consistency with other relevant adopted policies of the City.
