ZA2018-043 A RESOLUTION OF THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH APPROVING COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. CD2018-019 TO REMOVE AN EXISTING SINGLE-STORY MANUFACTURED HOME AND INSTALL A NEW TWO-STORY MANUFACTURED HOME AND ATTACHED AWNING CARPORT LOCATED AT 224 LEXINGTON CIRCLE (PA2018-043) THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS. 1. An application was filed by Steve Almquist of Coastline Construction (“Applicant”) on behalf of Mary Butler (“Manufactured Home Owner”), with respect to a manufactured home site located at 224 Lexington Circle, requesting approval of a coastal development permit. 2. The site is located within Bayside Village Mobile Home Park, legally described as Parcel 1 of Parcel Map No. 93-111. 3. The Applicant proposes the removal of an existing single-story manufactured home and the installation of a new two-story manufactured home. The development also includes an aluminum carport awning, hardscape, drainage, and landscaping. The development complies with all applicable standards and no deviations are requested. 4. The subject property is designated Multiple-Unit Residential ("RM") by the General Plan Land Use Element and is located within the Bayside Village Mobile Home Park Planned Community ("PC-1") Zoning District. 5. The subject site is located within the coastal zone. The Coastal Land Use Plan category is Multiple-Unit Residential – 10.0 – 19.9 DU/AC (“RM-C”) and it is located within the Bayside Village Mobile Home Park ("PC-1") Coastal Zone District. 6. A public hearing was held on April 12, 2018, in the Corona del Mar Conference Room (Bay E-1st Floor) at 100 Civic Center Drive, Newport Beach. A notice of time, place and purpose of the hearing was given in accordance with the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to, and considered by, the Zoning Administrator at this hearing. SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION. 1. This project is categorically exempt pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations Section 15303 , Article 19 of Chapter 3, Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under Class 3 (New Construction or Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-043 Page 2 of 6 12-21-2017 Conversion of Small Structures), because it has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment. 2. Class 3 exempts the demolition of up to three single-family residences and additions of up to 10,000 square feet to existing structures. The proposed project consists of the removal of one single-family manufactured home and the installation of a new single- family manufactured home. SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS. In accordance with Newport Beach Municipal Code (“NBMC”) Section 21.52.015 (Coastal Development Permits, Findings and Decision), the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth: Finding: A. Conforms to all applicable sections of the certified Local Coastal Program. Facts in Support of Finding: 1. The proposed development complies with applicable development standards identified by the PC-1 Development Plan and the proposed design is in substantial conformance with the approved site plan. a. The Project is within the confines of the manufactured home site lines. b. The Project has been reviewed and approved by the Mobile Home Park Owner, as evidenced by the Application for Permit to Construct included with the application. c. The Project includes a covered parking area for one vehicle, complying with the minimum parking requirement per site. 2. The Bayside Village Mobile Home Park is predominantly developed with single- and two-story, mobile/manufactured homes. The proposed design, bulk, and scale of the development is consistent with the existing pattern of development and expected future development consistent with applicable development standards. 3. The Bayside Village Mobile Home Park is comprised of Parcel 1 (South) and Parcel 2 (North) of Parcel Map No. 93-111. The Project site is located within the south parcel and is approximately 675 feet from the Newport Bay. It is separated from Newport Bay by two rows of manufactured home sites, Bayside Drive, and the entirety of the north parcel. The site is at an approximate elevation of between 13 and 14 feet based on the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-043 Page 3 of 6 12-21-2017 4. The project design addresses water quality with a construction erosion control plan and a post construction drainage system that includes drainage and percolation features designed to retain dry weather and minor rain event run-off on-site. Any water not retained on-site is directed to the City’s storm drain system. 5. The building codes for construction and installation of a manufactured home are contained within the California Health and Safety Code. The State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) issues all construction permits. The applicant has provided evidence of approval from the State, as well as the park owner. 6. Proposed landscaping complies with NBMC Section 21.30.075 (Landscaping). A condition of approval is included that requires drought-tolerant species. Prior to issuance of building permits, the final landscape plans will be reviewed to verify invasive species are not planted Finding: B. Conforms with the public access and public recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act if the project is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline of any body of water located within the coastal zone. Fact in Support of Finding: 1. The project site is located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline, and the existing residential development neither provides nor inhibits public coastal access. Implementation Plan Section 21.30A.040 (Determination of Public Access/Recreation Impacts) requires that the provision of public access bear a reasonable relationship between the requirement and the project’s impact and be proportional to the impact. In this case, the project replaces an existing single-family manufactured on an interior site located within an existing mobile/manufactured home park with a new single-family manufactured home. Therefore, the project does not involve a change in land use, density or intensity that will result in increased demand on public access and recreation opportunities. 2. Bayside Drive bisects the north and south parcels of the Bayside Village Mobile Home Park and provides access to the Newport Dunes, which houses several coastal recreational opportunities for the public’s use. 3. The mobile/manufactured home park abuts Coast Highway, a public coastal view road. The park is separated from the public right-of-way by an existing site wall that is approximately seven feet tall and provides for limited views across the park. An investigation of the project site and surrounding area did not identify any other public view opportunities. The project site may be located within the viewshed of distant public viewing areas. However, the project will replace an existing single-family manufactured home with a new single-family manufactured home that complies with all applicable Local Coastal Program development standards and maintains a building envelope consistent with the existing pattern of development. Therefore, the project does not have the potential to Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-043 Page 4 of 6 12-21-2017 degrade the visual quality of the Coastal Zone or result in significant adverse impacts to public views.
