The Zoning Administrator meeting is subject to the Ralph M. Brown Act. Among other things, the Brown Act requires
that the Zoning Administrator agenda be posted at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of each regular meeting and
that the public be allowed to comment on agenda items before the Zoning Administrator and items not on the agenda
but are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Zoning Administrator. The Chair may limit public comments to a
reasonable amount of time, generally three (3) minutes per person.
Please Note: All mail or written communications (including email) from the public, residents, or applicants regarding an
agenda item must be submitted by 5 p.m. on the business day immediately prior to the meeting. This allows time for the
Zoning Administrator to adequately consider the submitted correspondence.
The City of Newport Beach’s goal is to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in all respects. If, as an
attendee or a participant at this meeting, you will need special assistance beyond what is normally provided, we will
