Background
On May 23, 1988, a Development Agreement between the County of Orange (County)
and the Irvine Company was approved for development of the Newport (Irvine) Coast
Planned Community. The Development Agreement became part of a lengthy planning
process that involved review of numerous planning and environmental documents
including the County of Orange/Newport Coast Local Coastal Program and Master
Coastal Development Permit for that portion of the property within the Coastal Zone.
Development of the area began after the County approved and the Coastal Commission
certified the 2nd Amendment to the Newport Coast Local Coastal Program in 1996.
The City amended the General Plan (GPA) to include Newport Coast and Newport
Ridge on October 10,' 2000. The added area is identified as Statistical Area N in the
General Plan. Prior to the GPA, the area had gone through a comprehensive planning
process with the County as the lead agency. The planning for the area included the
Coastal Commission-approved Newport Coast Local Coastal Program, Newport Coast
Planned Community, Newport Ridge Planned Community, Master Plan of Streets and
Highways, inclusion of much of the area in the Natural Communities Conservation Plan
(NCCP), and multiple environmental studies, review, and approvals.
A year later in October 2001, the City entered into a Cooperative Agreement with the
County. The agreement recognizes all the planning for Newport Coast and Newport
2
Newport Coast Development Agreement— First Amendment

Page 3
Ridge that had been processed through the County and that the County would retain
permit and land use authority until each planning area (PA) is determined to be fully
improved. The agreement also recognizes that the County is authorized to issue permits
and allow development as specified in the Newport Coast LCP and the Newport Coast
and Newport Ridge Planned Communities.
In November 2001, the City entered into the Newport Coast Annexation and
Development Agreement with the applicant. Included in the Agreement is a provision
requiring that the City's General Plan and zoning essentially remain identical to the
County's designation in effect at the time of the annexation for the Agreement's term.
Since the implementation of the Agreement and development of the area, the applicant
has fulfilled their public benefits requirements of the County development agreement
including the dedication of parks and open space, the Newport Coast Fire Station, road
development and dedication, and the payment of fees for police services and libraries.
DISCUSSION
Analysis
The Agreement between the applicant and the City that describes the development
rights provided by the City and public benefits to be provided by the applicant. The
Agreement vests development rights including general plan designations and
development capacities for the Agreement's terms.
The applicant proposes to extend the term of the Agreement as specified in Section
10.1 of the Agreement from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2032. No other substantive
changes, including changes to commercial and residential development capacity, are
proposed.
The draft Agreement will also include a public benefit fee; the details of the amount of
the fee and timing of payment are still under negotiation. Staff will provide an update to
the Planning Commission at the time of the public hearing.
The draft Agreement amendment has been reviewed by the City Attorney's Office for
Newport Beach Municipal Code compliance and accuracy.
Environmental Review
All significant environmental concerns for the proposed project have been addressed in
the previously prepared environmental documents certified by the County and described
in Exhibit C of the Agreement, and the City intends to use said documents for the
Agreement amendment, and further that there are no additional reasonable alternative
or mitigation measures that should be considered in conjunction with said project.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING
THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVE THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO
ANNEXATION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN
THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, THE IRVINE COMPANY AND
IRVINE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CONCERNING THE
NEWPORT COAST AND ADJACENT PROPERTIES (PA2016-
165)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS
FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS.
1. An application was filed by The Irvine Company (TIC), with respect to property commonly
referred to as Newport Coast and Newport Ridge as legally described in Exhibit "A" of the
Annexation and Development Agreement Between the City of Newport Beach and Irvine
Company and Irvine Community Development Company Concerning the Newport Coast
and Adjacent Properties (Agreement), which is incorporated by reference herein.
2. In 2001, the City, TIC, and Irvine Community Development Company entered into the
Agreement for the annexation and development of approximately 7,799 acres along
Newport Coast (Property).
3. TIC requests to extend the term of the Agreement as specified in Section 10.1 of the
Agreement from January 1 , 2017 to January 1, 2032. No other substantive changes,
including changes to commercial and residential development capacity are proposed.
4. The Property includes the following General Plan Land Use Categories: Single-Unit
Residential Detached (RS-D), Multiple Residential (RM), Multiple Residential Detached
(RM-D), Neighborhood Commercial (CN), Visitor Serving Commercial (CV), Open Space
(OS), Parks and Recreation (PR), Private Institutions (PI), and Public Facilities (PF).
5. The Property is located in the Newport Coast Planned Community (PC 52) and Newport
Ridge Planned Community (PC 53) Zoning Districts.
6. The portion of the Property, located within the boundaries of the Newport Coast Local
Coastal Program (LCP) and Newport Coast Planned Community (PC 52), is located
within the coastal zone. The portion of the Property located within the boundaries of the
Newport Ridge Planned Community (PC 53) is not located within the coastal zone.
7. The Property is subject to the Cooperative Agreement between the County of Orange
(County) and the City, dated October 9, 2001 (the Cooperative Agreement). Pursuant to
the Cooperative Agreement, the County shall retain land use authority for the Property
until: (1) the development of the Property is complete; or (2) the City agrees to assume
municipal land use authority. The Cooperative Agreement between the County and the
7
Planning Commission Resolution No. ####
Page 2 of 6
City remains in full force and effect until all entitlement granted by the Development
Agreement has been completed, or unless the conditions for expiration specified in
Section 51302 of the Government Code are satisfied.
8. A public hearing was held on October 6, 2016, in the Council Chambers located at 100
Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach. A notice of time, place and purpose of the public
hearing was given in accordance with the Newport Beach Municipal Code (NBMC).
Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Planning
Commission at this public hearing.
SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION.
1. All significant environmental concerns for the proposed project have been addressed
in the previously prepared environmental documents certified by the County and
described in Exhibit C of the Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein,
and the City intends to use said documents for the Amendment, and further that there
are no additional reasonable alternative or mitigation measures that should be
considered in conjunction with said project. Copies of the previously prepared
environmental document are available for public review and inspection at the City's
Planning Division.
2. The Planning Commission finds that judicial challenges to the City's CEQA
determinations and approvals of land use projects are costly and time consuming. In
addition, project opponents often seek an award of attorneys' fees in such challenges.
As project applicants are the primary beneficiaries of such approvals, it is appropriate
that such applicants should bear the expense of defending against any such judicial
challenge, and bear the responsibility for any costs, attorneys' fees, and damages
which may be awarded to a successful challenger.
SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDING
1. Unless otherwise provided by the development agreement, the ordinances, rules,
plans and policies of the City which govern permitted uses of land, the density of
development, and the design, improvement and construction standards and
specifications, applicable to development of the Property, shall be those ordinance
rules, plans and policies in force at the time of execution of the Agreement. The
Agreement shall not prevent the City of Newport Beach in subsequent actions
applicable to the Property, from applying new rules, regulations, and policies which do
not conflict with those rules, regulations, and policies applicable to the Property as set
forth in the Agreement, nor shall the Agreement prevent the City of Newport Beach
from denying or conditionally approving any subsequent development project
application on the basis of such existing or new rules, regulations and policies.
2. The Amendment will continue to allow the development of a residential community,
containing a mix of housing types, supporting retail and active parklands, consistent
with the land uses, densities and intensities of the Newport Coast Planned Community
2
Planning Commission Resolution No. ####
Page 3 of 6
(PC 52) and Newport Ridge Planned Community (PC 53) Zoning Districts, Newport
Coast LCP and City's General Plan.
3. This amendment does not add any lots, units, building sites or structures to the
Property and does not change the approved design or uses allowed by Newport Coast
Planned Community (PC 52) and Newport Ridge Planned Community (PC 53) Zoning
Districts, Newport Coast LCP and the General Plan.
4. The portion of the Property located within the coastal zone is governed by the
previously certified and currently effective Newport Coast segment of the Orange
County LCP Second Amendment. Because the Property is governed by the certified
LCP, this Amendment is effective upon approval by the City Council and no further
approval need be obtained from the California Coastal Commission under California
Government Code Section 65869.
SECTION 4. DECISION.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach hereby recommends City
Council approval of the proposed amendment, Development Agreement No. DA2016-

costly infrastructure improvements far in excess of those necessary to mitigate the
impacts, or serve the needs, of the development. OWNER was required to make,
and has made, these extraordinary improvements prior to development of the
Property.
F. OWNER has acquired a fully vested right to develop the Property in
accordance with the development approvals because of the extraordinary
expenditures for public and private improvements made in reliance on the
development approvals, the dedications made in reliance on the development
approvals and the County Development Agreement.
G. CITY and OWNER intend for this Agreement to fully conform to the
development approvals and to fully facilitate full implementation of the Project, as
conditioned by the County and Coastal Commission. To the maximum extent
permitted by law, this Agreement is intended to be the functional equivalent of, or
a supplement to, the County Development Agreement in light of the CITY's
intention to allow County to retain all municipal land use authority over the
Property until such time as the discrete portions of the Project are complete.
H. City is desirous of annexing the Property but recognizes that the
development approvals for the Property involve complex and interrelated planning
documents. CITY does not have sufficient staff to timely process the permits .
required for implementation of the Project in compliance with all the development
approvals. Moreover, the development approvals and land use plan involve the
dedication of valuable habitat and open space within and outside of the
boundaries of the Property and City does not have the personnel and expertise to
ensure that dedications occur as planned.
I. CITY and OWNER have discussed the process and terms and
conditions of annexing the Property to CITY, and each has determined that it is in
their respective best interests to pursue that annexation pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement and the development approvals. In particular CITY desires
assurances that OWNER will support eventual annexation of all of the Property to
CITY, in order to:
(a) Facilitate the timely and orderly integration of the Property into
the CITY consistent with the CITY's sphere of influence;
(b) Facilitate planning and provision of municipal services to the
Property without any adverse fiscal impact on the CITY or the
ultimate owners of the property; and
(c) Ensure consistency with and implement the CITY's General Plan.
At the same time, OWNER desires to obtain assurances from CITY that,
Page 3 of 23
i 0
subsequent to annexation:
(a) OWNER will be able to develop the Property to the full extent
permitted by the development approvals granted by the County and
the Coastal Commission subject to conditions of approval imposed
by the Coastal Commission and the County as well as consistency
with the City's General Plan;
(b) Development will be processed by the County in accordance with
a uniform set of land use and building rules, regulations and
requirements, as established by the development approvals given by
the County for the Property prior to its annexation; and
(c) Development of the Property will be subject only to costs, fees,
processing requirements, conditions or exactions that would have
been imposed had the Property not been annexed to CITY.
J. In addition to the authority at common law for annexation
agreements, Government Code Sections 65864 et seq. ("Development
Agreement Law"), and Chapter 15.45 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code
authorize CITY to enter into binding development agreements with persons having
a legal or equitable interest in real property. This Agreement is consistent with the
public policy that supports development agreements in that it strengthens the
public planning process, facilitates implementation of comprehensive planning,
provides significant public benefits, and reduces the economic costs of
development.
K. The City Council has found that this Agreement is in the best public
interests of the CITY and its residents, that adopting this Agreement constitutes a
present exercise of its police power, and that this Agreement is consistent with the
City's General Plan and the Newport Beach Municipal Code and Charter.
L. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not be construed, to
impair the rights and obligations of OWNER, or other involved parties under and
pursuant to the Newport Coast Local Coastal Program, Second Amendment, and
the Litigation Settlement Agreement entered into June 27, 1997, by and among
OWNER, the Friends of the Irvine Coast, Laguna Greenbelt, Inc., and Stop
Polluting Our Newport.

2.2 Assignment by OWNER.
2.2.1 Right to Assign. OWNER shall have the right to sell,
transfer or assign the Property in whole or in part (provided that no

3. PRE-ANNEXATION OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS.
3.1 Annexation of Property. Consistent with and subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and specifically this Subsection, CITY
may, in one annexation proceeding or several annexation proceedings,
annex the Property under such conditions as are imposed by or through the
Orange County Local Agency Formation Commission and reasonably
acceptable to OWNER. Conditions shall be deemed to be reasonably
acceptable to OWNER unless the conditions impair or interfere with
OWNER's rights to develop or materially increase the cost of development.
OWNER's consent to annexation of all or a portion of the Property is
contingent on, and OWNER has reasonably relied on, CITY's commitments
in Section 3 and 4 of this Agreement.
3.1.1 Annexation Before Project Completion. OWNER will support
CITY's annexation of the Property in its entirety before project
completion, provided that the Property may be fully developed
to the full extent permitted in the Development Plan and as
evidenced by satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
(a) The Legislature has approved, and the Governor has
signed, legislation that clarifies provisions of the Coastal Act
such that annexation of the Property (1) will not alter or affect
the validity and enforceability of the Newport Coast Local
Coastal Program, Second Amendment, including any
amendments applicable to the Property and any related
coastal development permits; or (ii) deprive the County of
authority to issue coastal development permits pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, any ordinance, joint powers
agreement, or other mechanism that confers municipal land
use authority to the County after annexation and the Newport
Coast Local Coastal Program, Second Amendment or any
subsequent amendments that are certified by the California
Coastal Commission;
(b) The City adopts, and maintains during the term of this
Agreement, general plan and zoning designations for the
Property that are essentially identical to the Newport Coast
Local Coastal Program, general plan and zoning designations
adopted by the County and in effect as of the Effective Date.
(c) The City authorizes County to retain all municipal land use
authority (including the issuance of building and grading
permits) to the County pursuant to a cooperative agreement
Page 9 of 23
31
until such time as development is complete with each
Planning Area or until OWNER consents, in writing, to an
assumption of municipal land use authority over all or a
portion of the Property.
3.1.2 Ultimate Annexation. OWNER will fully support CITY
annexation of all or a portion of the Property without satisfying
the provisions of Section 3.1.1, provided that all lots and/or
parcels within the area to be annexed have received building
permits for construction of structure(s) consistent with the
Development Approvals, a certificate of occupancy has been
issued or a final building inspection has been conducted and
annexation will not interfere with, affect, or impair the
Development Approvals or OWNER's ability to complete the
Project.
3.2 Environmental Impacts and Mitigation. The parties acknowledge
that Environmental Impact Reports, environmental documents and functional
equivalents ("Environmental Documents - described in Exhibit C) have been
prepared and certified for the Project by County and/or approved by the Coastal
Commission. CITY has reviewed and evaluated the Environmental Documents to
determine if the impacts of the Project, as represented by this Agreement, the
Development Plan, and the CITY approvals, were fully analyzed and evaluated.
CITY has also reviewed the Environmental Documents and all relevant existing
facts and circumstances to determine if any of the events that require preparation
of a subsequent or supplemental environmental document have occurred. CITY
has determined based on that review that none of the events described in Section
21166 of the Public Resources Code or Sections 15162 or 15163 of the CEQA
Guidelines have occurred. CITY has specifically determined that the detachment
of the Property from County and the annexation of the Property to CITY do not
require preparation of any subsequent or supplemental environmental impact
report for the Project because the reorganization will not increase, decrease, or
modify any Development or dedication when compared to the entitlement prior to
annexation. CITY has also determined that, subject to incorporation of the
mitigation measures identified in Exhibit "E" and except as specifically provided in
this Agreement, there is no current or anticipated deficiency in any municipal
service or facility (including planned community and neighborhood parks, drainage
and flood control facilities, circulation system infrastructure, and public safety
services) resulting from Development of the Project. The mitigation measures
identified in Exhibit "E" are incorporated by reference into the Development Plan.

32
3.3 Additional Pre-Annexation Understandings. As a further
inducement to OWNER to support the annexation of the Property to CITY, CITY
agrees that, as of the date of its approval of this Agreement, all County affordable
housing requirements associated with development of the Property have been
satisfied. CITY also acknowledges that the OWNER has a vested right to proceed
with development pursuant to the County Agreement and that no additional
affordable housing requirements shall be imposed on development of the Property
pursuant to the CITY's General Plan or otherwise. The Affordable Housing
Implementation Plans approved by the County, describing the manner in which
affordable housing requirements have been satisfied for development of the
Property, are attached to this Agreement as Exhibit "F." Fees payable upon
issuance of any development permit (e.g., building permit or occupancy permit)
will be paid to the issuer of the permit in accordance with County Codes, fee
schedules and requirements for original improvements. Following annexation,
fees shall continue to be paid to the issuer in accordance with the codes and
requirements for additions, remodels and rebuilds of the jurisdiction with land use
authority. CITY agrees that the Project is in full compliance with, and shall not be
further subject to, CITY's Traffic Phasing Ordinance following annexation of the
Property, CITY having determined through this Agreement that:
a. Development of the Property will not cause or make worse any
unsatisfactory level of service at any primary intersection as defined in
the Traffic Phasing Ordinance;
b. Development of the Property has been considered a committed project
which has been incorporated into the CITY's traffic model and Circulation
Element traffic projections and all resulting levels of service have been
accepted in the Circulation Element; and
c. There is an overall reduction in peak hour ICU at impacted intersections
having unsatisfactory levels of service taking into account the circulation
improvements constructed or facilitated by OWNER pursuant to
conditions imposed for development of the Project, including
construction of Newport Coast Drive, extension of San Joaquin Hills
Road, widening of Pacific Coast Highway, and facilitation of construction
of the San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor.
3.4 Cooperation. Subject to and in reliance upon the representations
and covenants of the City, OWNER will support the annexation of the Property by
the CITY.
Page 11 of 23
33
3.5 Termination of Annexation Proceedings. This Agreement may be
terminated by OWNER in the event that CITY fails to comply with the
requirements of Paragraph 3.1 above with respect to any proposed annexation of
the Property to CITY, or if conditions imposed by or through the Local Agency
Formation Commission on the annexation are determined by either party to
conflict materially with its rights and obligations under any provision of this
Agreement.
4. DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY AFTER ANNEXATION.
Following annexation of the Property by CITY, the following provisions shall apply:
4.1 Rights to Develop. Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
following annexation of the Property OWNER shall have a vested right to develop
the Property in accordance with, and to the extent of, the Development Plan.
Pending and subsequent to annexation of the Property to CITY, OWNER shall
have the right to seek approvals from County for the Development of the Property,
and to develop the Property, consistent with the Development Plan. CITY
expressly agrees to take no action that would or could (a) interfere with or impair
the Development Approvals; (b) interfere with or impair the OWNER's ability to
complete the project; (c) materially increase the cost of completing the project
without the OWNER's express written consent; or (d) cause the transfer of any
permitting or development review authority pursuant to State or local law,
including Government Code section 30519, from the County to the City or any
other agency until such time as that portion of the Property affected by the transfer
is fully developed pursuant to the Development Plan and provided the transfer
would not interfere or impair OWNER's ability to develop any other portion of this
Property.
4.2 Effect of Agreement on Land Use Regulations. The rules,
regulations and official policies governing permitted uses of the Property, the
density and intensity of use of the Property, the maximum height and size of
proposed buildings, and the design, improvement and construction standards and
specifications applicable to Development of the Property, shall be those contained
in the Development Plan (and those Land Use Regulations not inconsistent with
the Development Plan) and that were in full force and effect on or before June 26,
2001 except as may be otherwise provided by this Agreement,.
4.3 Timing of Development. The Parties acknowledge that OWNER
cannot at this time predict when or the rate at which phases of the Property will be
developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous factors that are not within the
control of OWNER, such as market orientation and demand, interest rates,
absorption, completion and other similar factors. Since the California Supreme
Court held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo (1984) 37 Cal. 3d 465,
Page 12 of 23
31{
0
that the failure of the parties therein to provide for the timing of Development
resulted in a later adopted initiative restricting the timing of Development to prevail
over such parties' agreement, it is the parties' intent to cure that deficiency by
acknowledging and providing that OWNER shall have the right to develop the
Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as OWNER deems
appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment. Nothing in this
section is intended to alter the standard time limits of any permits issued to
OWNER pursuant to the Development Approvals.
4.4 Changes and Amendments. The parties acknowledge that
Development of the Project may require Subsequent Development Approvals.
OWNER may determine that changes in the existing Development Approvals or
Development Plan are appropriate and desirable. In the event OWNER finds that
such a change is appropriate or desirable, OWNER may apply in writing for an
amendment to Development Approvals or the Development Plan to effect such
change and the application shall be processed for approval by County. CITY shall
expressly permit and authorize modifications of any proposed changes in the
existing Development Approvals or Development Plan unless the proposed
modifications:
(a) Would materially reduce the amount of open space intended for
dedication to the public, or
(b) Would materially alter the cost of providing municipal services to the
Property subsequent to annexation, or
(c) Would materially reduce the amount of property tax or other revenue
available to the CITY after annexation, or
(d) Would materially increase the density and/or intensity of development
allowed in the Project as a whole, resulting in unacceptable intersection
impacts outside of the Project that cannot be mitigated pursuant to the
CITY's Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
Any change in the Development Approvals or Development Plan made in
accordance with the procedures required by the Land Use Regulations and with
the written consent of the OWNER shall be conclusively deemed to be consistent
with this Agreement, without any further need for any amendment to this
Agreement or any of its Exhibits.
4.5 Continuation of Irvine Coast Development Agreement. CITY
acknowledges and agrees that the County Agreement entered into between
OWNER and County shall continue to govern the rights and obligations of
OWNER and County with respect to the Coastal Zone Area preceding annexation,
and following annexation to the maximum extent permitted by the cooperative
agreement and State law. If for any reason this Agreement is found to be invalid
Page 13 of 23
3�
or unenforceable or OWNER's ability to proceed with the Development Plan is
impaired or delayed for any reason, then the Coastal Zone Area shall be and
remain subject to the terms and protections of the County Agreement.
4.6 Monitoring of Project. City shall, subsequent to annexation of all
or a portion of the Property, have the right, pursuant to a standard right of entry
permit issued by OWNER, to enter the Property for the limited purpose of ensuring
that development of the Property proceeds in substantial compliance with the
Development Approvals and all conditions to those approvals that are material to
the issue of water quality and aesthetics. OWNER shall designate a Project
Manager to provide CITY with access to all grading and building plans and
specifications on or before the date they are submitted to the County. CITY shall
conduct all monitoring activities in a manner that does not unduly burden
OWNER's rights to develop the Property in compliance with the Development
Approvals. Any report prepared pursuant to monitoring shall be lodged with the
City Manager and CITY shall provide OWNER with the opportunity to review and
comment on the report prior to submittal to the City Manager. The monitoring
authorized by this Subsection is not intended, and shall not be construed, to
create any formal procedure, right or process on the part of the CITY to review or
modify the Development of the Property. City shall make available to any person,
upon request, any report or document lodged with the City Manager that is
prepared by any professional retained by the CITY to conduct the monitoring
authorized by this Section.
5. FINANCING OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS AFTER ANNEXATION.
5.1 Formation of Financing Districts. If so requested by OWNER,
CITY will cooperate in the formation or modification of any special assessment
district, community facilities district or alternate financing mechanism ('CFD") to
pay for the construction, acquisition, and/or maintenance and operation of public
and/or quasi-public infrastructure, lighting, landscape, or any other public facilities
required as part of the Development Approvals. CITY may, pursuant to the
cooperative agreement, allow the County to retain the authority to administer, form
or modify any new or existing assessment district. However, CITY shall have no
obligation to authorize or to cause any such CFD to issue debt or sell bonds prior
to the completion of the annexation of the Property to CITY. In the event that
such a CFD is formed and sells bonds to pay for the construction or acquisition of
public or quasi-public facilities which were provided, in whole or in part, by
OWNER, OWNER may be reimbursed from such bonds to the extent that
OWNER has spent funds or dedicated land for the establishment of such facilities
and creation of the CFD. While it is acknowledged that this Agreement cannot
require CITY or the City Council to form any such CFD or to issue and sell bonds,
CITY represents that it can do so and agrees that it shall not refuse OWNER's
request to form such a CFD and to issue and sell bonds following completion of
annexation of the Property to CITY, except for good and reasonable cause. In no
Page 14 of 23
3�o
0
event shall CITY have any obligation or duty to refinance, repay, reduce the
amount of, or assume any financial relationship to, any bonds or other debt issued
by any CFD prior to annexation, but City may assume such obligation pursuant to
agreement.
5.2 OWNER's Right to Construct Facilities. Subject to CITY or
County review and approval of plans and specifications, as appropriate, the
OWNER may elect, and reserves the right, to construct, or cause the construction
of, any public or quasi-public facility for which the CITY intends to collect a fee,
and to dedicate the completed facility to the CITY, in lieu of payment of the fee.
6. REVIEW FOR COMPLIANCE FOLLOWING ANNEXATION.
6.1 Periodic Review. Following annexation of all or any portion of the
Property, the City Council shall review this Agreement annually, on or before the
anniversary of the Effective Date, in order to ascertain the good faith compliance
by OWNER with the terms of the Agreement. As part of that review, OWNER
shall submit an annual monitoring review statement describing its actions in
compliance with this Agreement, in a form acceptable to the City Manager, within
30 days after written notice from the City Manager requesting that statement. The
statement shall be accompanied by an annual review and administration fee
sufficient to defray the estimated costs of review and administration of the
Agreement during the succeeding year. The amount of the annual review and
administration fee shall be set annually by resolution of the City Council.
6.2 Special Review. The City Council may order a special review of
compliance with this Agreement at any time at CITY's sole cost. OWNER shall
cooperate with the CITY in the conduct of such special reviews.
6.3 Procedure. Each party shall have, at any periodic or special review,
a reasonable opportunity to assert matters which it believes have not been
undertaken in accordance with the Agreement, to explain the basis for such
assertion, and to receive from the other party a justification of its position on such
matters. If either Party concludes, on the basis of any review, that the other Party
has not complied in good faith with the terms of the Agreement, then such Party
may issue a written "Notice of Non-Compliance" specifying the grounds and all
facts demonstrating such non-compliance. The Party receiving a Notice of
Non-Compliance shall have thirty (30) days to respond in writing to the Notice. If
the response to the Notice of Non-Compliance has not been received in the
offices of the party alleging the default within the prescribed time period, the
Notice of Non-Compliance shall be conclusively presumed to be valid. If a Notice
of Non-Compliance is contested, the Parties shall have up to sixty (60) days to
arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution of the matter(s) occasioning the Notice.
In the event that the Parties are not able to arrive at a mutually acceptable
resolution of the matter(s) by the end of the sixty (60) day period, the Party
Page 15 of 23
alleging the non-compliance may pursue the remedies provided in Section 7.
6.4 Certificate of Agreement Compliance. If, at the conclusion of a
periodic or special review, OWNER is found to be in compliance with this
Agreement, CITY shall, upon request by OWNER, issue a Certificate of
Agreement Compliance ("Certificate") to OWNER stating that after the most recent
Periodic or Special Review and based upon the information known or made
known to the City Manager and CITY Council that (1) this Agreement remains in
effect and (2) OWNER is not in default. The Certificate shall be in recordable
form, shall contain information necessary to communicate constructive record
notice of the finding of compliance, shall state whether the Certificate is issued
after a Periodic or Special Review and shall state the anticipated date of
commencement of the next Periodic Review. OWNER may record the Certificate
with the County Recorder. Additionally, OWNER may at any time request from
the CITY a Certificate stating, in addition to the foregoing, which obligations under
this Agreement have been fully satisfied with respect to the Property, or any lot or
parcel within the Property.
7. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.
7.1 Specific Performance Available. The parties acknowledge that
money damages and remedies at law generally are inadequate and specific
performance is a particularly appropriate remedy for the enforcement of this
Agreement and should be available to OWNER and CITY because due to the
size, nature and scope of the Project, it may not be practical or possible to restore
the Property to its natural condition once implementation of this Agreement has
begun. After such implementation, OWNER and/or CITY may be foreclosed from
other choices it may have had to utilize or condition the Property or portions
hereof. OWNER and CITY have invested significant time and resources and
performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the
terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and
resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this
Agreement, such that it would be extremely difficult to determine the sum of
money which would adequately compensate OWNER and/or CITY for such
efforts. Except as provided in Section 7.2 below, neither OWNER nor CITY shall
be entitled to any money damages, including attorney fees, from the other party
by reason of any default under this Agreement.
7.2 Restitution of Improper Development Fees. In the event any
Development fees or taxes are imposed on Development of the Property other
than those authorized pursuant to this Agreement, OWNER shall be entitled to
recover from CITY restitution of all such improperly assessed fees or taxes,
together with interest thereon at the maximum allowable non-usurious rate from
the date such sums were paid to CITY to the date of restitution.
Page 16 of 2338
7.3 Termination of Agreement.
7.3.1 Termination of Agreement for Default of OWNER. CITY in its
discretion may temninate this Agreement as to any non-annexed portions of
the Property for any failure of OWNER to perform any material duty or
obligation of OWNER hereunder or to comply in good faith with the terms of
this Agreement related to its annexation (hereinafter referred to as
"default'); provided, however, CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant
to this Section only after following the procedure set forth in Section 6.3
and thereafter providing written notice to OWNER of the default setting
forth the nature of the default and the actions, if any, required by OWNER
to cure such default and, where the default can be cured, OWNER has
failed to take such actions and cure such default within 30 days after the
effective date of such notice or, in the event that such default cannot be
cured within such 30 day period, the failure of CITY to commence to cure
such default within such 30 day period and to diligently proceed to
complete such actions and to cure such default.
7.3.2 Termination of Agreement.for Default of CITY. OWNER in its
discretion may terminate this Agreement by written notice to CITY after the
default by CITY in the performance of a material term of this Agreement
and only after following the procedure set forth in Section 6.3 and thereafter
providing written notice by OWNER thereof to CITY and, where the default
can be cured, the failure of CITY to cure such default within 30 days after
the effective date of such notice or, in the event that such default cannot be
cured within such 30 day period, the failure of CITY to commence to cure
such default within such 30 day period and to diligently proceed to
complete such actions and to cure such default.

The parties agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit OWNER, in any
manner, at OWNER's sole discretion, from encumbering the Property or any
portion thereof or any improvement thereon by any mortgage, deed of trust or

Agreement interpretations and modifications and agrees upon request, from time
to time, to meet with OWNER and representatives of such lenders to negotiate in
good faith any such request for interpretation or modification. Subject to

to any such requested interpretation or modification provided such interpretation
or modification is consistent with the intent and purposes of this Agreement. Any
Mortgagee of the Property shall be entitled to the following rights and privileges:
(a) Neither entering into this Agreement nor a breach of this Agreement shall

OWNER in the performance of OWNER's obligations under this
Agreement.
(c) If CITY timely receives a request from a Mortgagee requesting a copy of
any notice of default given to OWNER under the terms of this Agreement,
CITY shall provide a copy of that notice to the Mortgagee within ten (10)
days of sending the notice of default to OWNER. The mortgagee shall
have the right, but not the obligation, to cure the default during the
remaining cure period allowed such party under this Agreement.
(d) Any Mortgagee who comes into possession of the Property, or any part
Page 18 of 23
40
thereof, pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage or deed of trust, or deed
in lieu of such foreclosure, shall take the Property, or part thereof, subject
to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement to the contrary, no Mortgagee shall have an obligation or
duty under this Agreement to perform any of OWNER's obligations or
other affirmative covenants of OWNER hereunder, or to guarantee such
performance; except that (i) to the extent that any covenant to be
performed by OWNER is a condition precedent to the performance of a
covenant by CITY, the performance thereof shall continue to be a
condition precedent to CITY's performance hereunder, and (ii) in the
event any Mortgagee seeks to develop or use any portion of the Property
acquired by such Mortgagee by foreclosure, deed of trust, or deed in lieu
of foreclosure, such Mortgagee shall strictly comply with all of the terms,
conditions and requirements of this Agreement and the Development
Plan applicable to the Property or such part thereof so acquired by the
Mortgagee.

.of the MPAH amendments removed the master planned segment of
San Canyon Avenue from its existing terminus just north of PCH to
the San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor(SJHTC),and deleted
the then planned interchange of San Canyon Avenue at the SJHTC.
The removal of this planned segment was the result of changes in
future land uses in the City of Irvine(PA 22)that would result in
more open spacelless development and in unincorporated Orange
County property/Newport Coast/Newport Ridge

Planning Commission - October 6, 2016
Item No. 7a Additional Materials Received
Newport Coast Development Agreement (PA2016-165)
Oct. 6, 2016, Planning Commission Agenda Item Comments
Comments on Newport Beach Planning Commission regular meeting agenda item submitted by:
Jim Mosher( iimmosherta")yahoo.com ), 2210 Private Road, Newport Beach 92660 (949-548-6229).
Item No. 7. NEWPORT COAST DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (PA2016-
165)
Please see my comments on Item No. 6 ("GENERAL PLAN LAND USE ELEMENT
CORRECTION - NEWPORT COAST (PA2006-159)"). I do not think the Planning Commission
should act on either of these items until it holds a study session in which it, and the public, can
become better informed about the current status of, and the potential for future development in
the still County-controlled annexation area, and how plans and agreements executed by the City
impact or constrain it.
As indicated in my comments on Item No. 6, the planning status of the Newport Coast
annexation area is very complex, involving overlapping jurisdictions, authorities and
agreements. It is also poorly understood. For example, under Clause 6.1 (handwritten page
37) of the existing Development Agreement (which seems to benefit primarily the County and
The Irvine Company), the status of both the Newport Ridge and Newport Coast planning areas
is supposed to be reviewed at least annually by the Newport Beach City Council. But to the
best of my knowledge the status of Newport Ridge has ever been reviewed or disclosed.
Hence, when the staff report (page 2) says there are 363 residential units remaining to be
developed there, I have no idea where those units might go, what they might look like, or who
has the permitting and review authority to allow them (my guess is the County).
I also notice neither the staff report nor the proposed agreement provides any explanation I can
find of why the 2001 agreement was between the City, The Irvine Company and the Irvine
Community Development Company, but the amendment is between the City, The Irvine
Company and "PH Finance LLC, an affiliate of TIC." Who is PH Finance LLC? And what
happened to the Irvine Community Development Company?
Additionally, the staff report (Analysis, page 3) says "The draft Agreement will also include a
public benefit fee." While it goes on to say "the details of the amount of the fee and timing of
payment are still under negotiation. Staff will provide an update to the Planning Commission at
the time of the public hearing," I can find nothing in the draft Agreement promising a public
benefit, let alone one missing only an amount and timing. Expecting the Commission to make a
recommendation based on essential information, and apparently a different Agreement that will
not be seen until the hearing does not sound like thoughtful decision making to me, nor does it
provide the public a meaningful opportunity to give input.
Planning Commission - October 6, 2016
Item No. 7a Additional Materials Received
October 6, 2016, PC agenda item 7 comments -NWW"h Sast Develop m& Ajrobihent (PA2016-165)
The proposed resolution similarly asks the Commission (handwritten page 9)to make a finding
that"This amendment does not add any lots, units, building sites or structures to the Property
and does not change the approved design or uses allowed by Newport Coast Planned
Community(PC 52) and Newport Ridge Planned Community(PC 53) Zoning Districts, Newport
Coast LCP and the General Plan." But again, aside possibly from Clause 9 on handwritten page
15, 1 can find nothing in the draft Agreement making that assurance, and it seems highly
doubtful that plans and uses could not change if the County retains its land use and amendment
authority as evidenced from Item 6 on the present agenda.
In short, I don't see how the Commission could in good conscience make a recommendation
without knowing exactly what development rights are being asked to be protected by the
agreement, and how providing that assurance will benefit the public.
Finally, the proposed resolution (page 2 of 6, handwritten page 8) appears to ask the
Commission base its CEQA determination on evaluations performed 15 to 40 years ago (Exhibit
C, handwritten pages 58-60). That seems wholly inappropriate to me, since I assume both the
world and CEQA have changed in that time.
