DEMOLISH AN EXISTING MIXED-USE BUILDING AND
CONSTRUCT A NEW MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT LOCATED AT
509 31ST STREET (PA2018-090)
THE ZONING ADMINISTRATOR OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS
FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS.
1. An application was filed by Laidlaw Schultz Architects on behalf of Gary Jabara, with
respect to property located at 509 31st Street, requesting approval of a coastal
development permit and minor site development review.
2. The Property is legally described as Parcel 1 of Block 530 of Resubdivision No. 591 in the
City of Newport Beach, County of Orange, State of California, as per Map recorded in Book
136, Page 8, of Miscellaneous Maps, in the Office of the County Recorder of said County.
3. The Applicant proposes the demolition of an existing two-story mixed use building and
construction of a two-story mixed-use development that includes an artist's studio on the
first floor and a residential unit on the second floor. The Project includes hardscape,
landscape, and subsurface drainage facilities. The design complies with all applicable
development standards and no deviations are requested.
4. The subject property is located within the MU-CV/15 Street (Mixed-Use Cannery Village
and 15 Street) Zoning District and the General Plan Land Use Element category is Mixed
Use Horizontal 4 (MU-H4).
5. The subject property is located within the coastal zone. The Coastal Land Use Plan
category is MU-H (Mixed Use Horizontal).
6. A public hearing was held on July 26, 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 and Section 15315, Article 19 of Chapter 3, Guidelines for
Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Class 3 (New
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-085
Page 2 of 13
12-21-2017
Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), because it has no potential to have a
significant effect on the environment.
2. The Class 3 exemption applies to apartments, duplexes, and similar structures designed
for not more than six dwelling units in urbanized areas. The proposed mixed-use
development is consistent with all requirements of the Class 3 exemption, as it contains
one mixed-use development on an existing nonresidential site in Balboa Village.
SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
Coastal Development Permit
In accordance with Section 21.52.015 (Coastal Development Permits, Findings and Decision)
of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, 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 residential development standards
including, but not limited to, floor area ratios, setbacks, height, open space, and parking.
a. The maximum gross floor area allowable for residential uses is 5,580 square feet
(i.e., floor area ratio [FAR] of 1.0). The proposed gross floor area for residential use
is 1,581 square feet (0.28 FAR).
b. The minimum gross floor area allowable for nonresidential uses is 1,395 square
feet (i.e., FAR of 0.25) and the maximum allowable is 2,790 square feet (i.e., FAR
of 0.50). The proposed gross floor area of the nonresidential use is 2,711 square
feet (0.48 FAR).
c. The proposed development provides the minimum required setbacks, which are 0
feet along the front property line abutting 31st Street, 0 feet along each side property
line, and 10 feet along the rear property line abutting the alley.
d. The highest guardrail is 26 feet from established grade (9.00 feet NAVD88) and
the highest ridge is 31 feet from established grade, which comply with the
maximum height requirements.
e. The project includes a two-car garage for residential use, and three covered
guest/commercial parking spaces for the artist studio component at a ratio of one
space for every 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. Therefore, the project will
comply with the minimum parking requirements.
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-085
Page 3 of 13
12-21-2017
2. The neighborhood is predominantly developed with one- and two-story, commercial and
mixed-use structures. There are several structures in the immediate area that are similar
in height at two-stories. Additionally, the Cannery Lofts development consisting of three-
story mixed-use buildings is located near the project to the southeast. The proposed
design, bulk, and scale of the development is consistent with the existing neighborhood
pattern of development in the Cannery Village area.
3. The Project has been designed such that it will be compatible with the scale of expected
future development in the area.
4. The development is located on an inland property in a developed area more than 300
feet from the bay. The project site is separated from the bay (the nearest body of water)
by Lafayette Avenue and an existing parking lot abutting the bay. The finished floor
elevation of the first floor for the proposed structure is 9.00 feet based on the North
American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88), which complies with the minimum 9.00 -
foot (NAVD88) elevation standard for new structures. The identified distances from the
coastal hazards areas coupled with the 9.00-foot (NAVD88) finish floor elevation, will
help to ensure the project is reasonably safe for the economic life of the structure.
5. The Property is located in an area known for the potential of seismic activity and
liquefaction. All projects are required to comply with the California Building Code (CBC)
and Building Division standards and policies. Geotechnical investigations specifically
addressing liquefaction are required to be reviewed and approved prior to the issuance of
building permits. Permit issuance is also contingent on the inclusion of design mitigation
identified in the investigations. Construction plans are reviewed for compliance with
approved investigations and CBC prior to building permit issuance.
6. The project site is located more than 300 feet from the bay. 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.
7. Proposed landscaping complies with Implementation Plan Section 21.30.075. 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 .
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-085
Page 4 of 13
12-21-2017
Fact in Support of Finding:
1. The project site is located on the Balboa Peninsula within the Cannery Village area. The
project site is not located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline. The
existing site is developed with a two-story mixed-use building and private parking lot. The
site does not currently provide any views or access to/along the shoreline. Vertical access
to the bay front is available along 31st Street in front of the project site. Lateral access
along the bay is available via the Rhine.
2. The project site is not located adjacent to a coastal view road, public viewpoint, public park
or beach, or public accessway, as identified in the Coastal Land Use Plan. Furthermore,
an investigation of the project site and surrounding area did not identify any other public
view or access opportunities on the site. The project site is not located within the viewshed
of distant public viewing areas. The project is located on an inland lot and will replace an
existing nonresidential structure with a new mixed-use structure (i.e., nonresidential) that
complies with all applicable Local Coastal Program (LCP) development standards and
maintains a building envelope consistent with the existing and anticipated future
neighborhood pattern of development. Therefore, the project does not have the potential
to degrade the visual quality of the Coastal Zone or result in significant adverse impacts to
public views.
3. The project will improve an underutilized property in a predominately mixed-use area,
which will in turn help to enhance the visual quality of the Coastal Zone for visitors and
residents.
Site Development Review
In accordance with Section 20.52.080.F (Findings and Decision) of the Newport Beach
Municipal Code, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:

Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the subject property as Mixed
Use Horizontal 4 (MU-H4), which is intended to provide for multi-family residential,
general or neighborhood commercial, and/or mixed-use structure; where the ground
floor shall be restricted to nonresidential uses along the street frontage and the rear and
upper floor uses for residential, including senior residential units and overnight
accommodations. Mixed-use or commercial buildings shall be required on parcels at
street intersections. The mixed-use development shall have floor area to land area
(FAR) ratio of 1.5; where a minimum FAR ratio of 0.25 and maximum 0.5 shall be used
for retail uses and a maximum of 1.0 for residential. The proposed development is
consistent with the General Plan designation in that:
a. The proposed project is designed as a vertically-integrated mixed-used structure,
located on 31st Street between Villa Way and Lafayette Avenue. The Project will
be occupied by a nonresidential use on the ground floor and a residential use will
be located above the ground floor.
b. The proposed development has 0.48 FAR for nonresidential uses and 0.28 FAR
for residential uses totaling 0.76 FAR for a mixed-use development consistent
with the MU-H4 land use category.
2. The proposed development complies with the MU-CV/15 Street Zoning District
development standards of FAR, building setbacks, public and private open spaces,
building height, and parking in that:
a. The proposed development has 0.48 floor area ratio (FAR) for commercial use
and 0.28 FAR for residential use. The commercial FAR meets the minimum 0.25
FAR and is less than the maximum 0.5 0 FAR. The residential FAR is less than
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-085
Page 6 of 13
12-21-2017
the maximum 1.0 FAR. Together, the proposed project has 0.76 FAR for mixed-
use development.
b. The proposed development complies with the required setbacks of 0 feet for the
front, 10 feet for the rear and 0 feet for each side.
c. The proposed development consists of a 2-story building at 31 feet in height
which is in compliance with the 26/31 height allowance.
d. The proposed development provides a total of 225 square feet of common open
space, where a minimum of 75 square feet is required per residential unit; and a
total of 225 square feet of private open space where a minimum of 86 square feet
(5% of gross floor area) is required per residential unit.
e. A total of five parking spaces are provided. Two spaces would be within a 478-
square-foot garage accessed from the alley. Three covered parking spaces
(including one disabled parking space) will also be provided that are accessed
from the alley. Parking for the proposed development complies with the parking
requirements of two enclosed parking spaces for the single -residential unit and
three guest/customer parking spaces for the artist studio component at a ratio of
one space for every 1,000 square feet of gross floor area.
3. The proposed site layout provides efficient and direct vehicular access from an existing
alleyway. Adequate pedestrian access and path of travel to the building will be provided
from the existing sidewalk abutting 31st Street. The Public Works Department has
reviewed and approved the site plan, proposed improvements, and parking
configuration subject to the conditions of approval.
4. The subject property is not located at or near a public view point or corridor as identified
in the General Plan Figure NR3 (Coastal Views); and therefore, is in compliance with
Section 20.30.100 (Public View Protections).
5. The proposed project has been designed to be compatible with the surrounding
architecture in terms of bulk, scale, and aesthetic treatment. The subject property is
located within Cannery Village, which includes other two-story mixed use developments
that are similar in bulk and scale to the proposed two-story development. Also, Cannery
Village is comprised of older industrial buildings. The proposed mixed-use development
incorporates the industrial style into its design by using materials such as masonry,
metal siding, stucco, and industrial wire glass.
Finding:
E. Not detrimental to the harmonious and orderly growth of the City, or endanger,
jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public convenience, health, interest,
safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of the
proposed development.
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2018-085

12-21-2017
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The proposed development will comply with all Building, Public Works, and Fire Codes,
as well as all City ordinances and conditions of approval.
2. The Project has been conditioned to ensure that potential conflicts with surrounding land
uses are minimized to the extent possible to maintain a healthy environment for both
businesses and residents.
3. The proposed project includes two enclosed parking spaces for the residential unit and
three open parking spaces for the nonresidential use, which comply with the parking
requirements for mixed-use, pursuant to the Municipal Code Section 20.40.040 (Off -
Street Parking).
4. The proposed project design includes more than the minimum required private open
spaces for the residential unit as required by the MU-CV/15 Street Zoning District Mixed-
Use zoning district.
5. There are two existing street parking spaces along the frontage of the project site.
Vehicular access to the project site will remain from the alley. Therefore, construction of
the project would not result in the loss of street parking for public use.
