Public hearing re
Mayor Hill opened the meeting for a public hearing in connection with
ication o on
an appeal from the decision of the Planning; Commission regarding the Application
Diccerman or Use
of Don Dickerman for Use Permit No. 323, by which decision Mr. Dickerman
Permit No.
was denied permission to sell alcoholic beverages in conjunction with a
restaurant at 4323 West Coast Highway, Newport Beach, being a portion of
Section 28, T6S, R10W, S.B.B.M. The Clerk stated that notice of hearing had
been duly published and posted. The Clerk read a report from the Planning
Commission, summarized as: follows: That the proposed use of the property
would be only eight feet away from the nearest residence; that there is a
proposed playground to be constructed within the near future and said
operation would be detrimental to the welfare of the children; that the
proposed use would create noise which would adversely affect the neighbors
in the immediate vicinity; and the use would be detrimental and injurious
to property and improvements in the neighborhood and to the general welfare
of the City. The Clerk read a letter from Mr. J. M. Robinson, 2 Balboa Coves,
rescinding his former acquiescence to the proposed cocktail bar of Mr.
Dickerman and disapproving of said operation at this time. Mr. Baird B.
Coffin, Attorney, representing the applicant, spoke from the audience. Mr.
Coffin stated that the main objection to the sale of alcoholic beverages at
said location seemed to be its proximity to .a residential area. He presented
a photostatic copy of a lease entered into by and between the Balboa Coves
Community Association and Mr. R. L. Howard, wherein said Association agreed
that Mr. Howard, at a location almost adjacent to the Dickerman location,
might "if he elects, maintain a service bar on his premises for those who
°
wish alcoholic beverages with their meals." Mr. R. L. Dahlgren, President
of the Balboa Coves Association, spoke from the audience opposing the
granting of the Use Permit and stating that the proximity of the proposed
operation to the residences, was objectionable. He further stated that the
Association had no control over the operation of Mr. Howard, therefore the
Association had agreed to the inclusion of the quoted phrase in the subject
lease. It was brought out that if Mr. Dickerman were denied a Use Permit
and Mr. Howard, at a neighboring location, is allowed to sell alcoholic
beverages, such action might be considered discriminatory against an
individual. Since the admission of the lease into the record was new
evidence which had not been presented to the Planning,Commission, on
motion of Councilman Hart, seconded by Councilman Ridderhof and carried,
the hearing was closed and the matter was referred to the Planning
Commission for rehearing and consideration of the new evidence.

and that the street, used for ingress and egress to the City dis-
posal area, has never been dedicated. The City Manager stated that

instituted by the Traffic Committee and which had been installed as
an experiment for the last two week ends. He stated that the plan had
not worked out in its entirety but that egress from the Peninsula had
been alleviated to a great extent. He was of the opinion that if
people would abide by the 11No Parking" regulations instead of preferring
to pay the fines, ingress would also be alleviated. Mr. Robert Jacobs

bottleneck had just been moved from one location to another. On motion

condition exists and that the City Council should take action in
accordance with the recommendations of the Traffic Committee, to
prohibit parking on one side of Poppy Avenue so that an emergency
vehicle could get through. Mrs. Orpha Hogan spoke from the audience
and stated that during the recent water shortage, emergency vehicles
were able to get through on Poppy Avenue even though the curbs were
not painted red. On motion of Councilman Stoddard, seconded by
