DISCUSSION
The subject properties are zoned Two-Unit Residential (R-2) and have a General
Plan Land Use Designation of Two Unit Residential (RT). The R-2 Zoning District
is intended to provide areas appropriate for development of a maximum of two
residential dwelling units (i.e., duplexes) on a single legal lot.
The proposed subdivision and improvements are consistent with the density of the
R-2 Zoning District and the General Plan Land Use Designation of RT.
The lots are physically suitable for the development of a duplex because they are
both relatively flat, rectangular, and can be adequately served by existing utilities
as the project site is within an already developed neighborhood.
On June 10, 2002, a Covenant and Agreement to Dedicate Use of Land as a
Parking Lot as Instrument No. 2002048355 was recorded. The covenant required
506, 508, 510, and 512 Goldenrod Avenue to be used as a parking lot for the
commercial buildings located at 2831 and 2855 E Coast Highway under the terms
of Use Permit No. 3638.
On March 23, 2017, the Planning Commission removed the condition to Use
Permit No. 3638 that required the properties to be used as parking and the
covenant was subsequently terminated.
A new duplex is currently under construction at 506 Goldenrod Avenue (Building
Permit No. X2019-0943) and a second new duplex is under construction at 508
Goldenrod Avenue (Building Permit No. X2019-1774).
Both properties are located within an area of the Coastal Zone that is exempted
from obtaining approval of a CDP for specific types of development. This area,
known as the Categorical Exclusion Order (CEO) area, allows for the construction
of a new, two-unit, residential structure without obtaining a CDP contingent upon
providing a notice of exclusion to the Coastal Commission. The duplex at 506
Goldenrod Avenue is being constructed pursuant to CEO2017052 and the duplex
at 508 Goldenrod Avenue is being constructed pursuant to CEO2017052.
The new duplexes conform to all applicable development standards, including floor
area limit, setbacks, height, and off -street parking. It has been designed such that
each unit will be served by individual water meters, sewer laterals, and cleanouts.
The project has been conditioned to require public improvements, including the
reconstruction of sidewalks, curbs, and gutters a long the Goldenrod Avenue

frontage, as needed, as well as the undergrounding of utilities, consistent with Title
19 (Subdivisions).
• The duplexes were reviewed and approved by all City Departments. All wastewater
will discharge into the existing sewer system, such that it complies with Regional
Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requirements.
• While the project site is located within the CEO area of the Coastal Zone, the
approval of a tentative parcel map is not included as exempted development in the
exclusion order. The approval of a tentative parcel map requires a CDP.
• The project site is not located between the nearest public road and the sea or
shoreline. Approval of the parcel map will not affect public recreation, access or
views.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Section 15315 under Class 15 (Minor Land Divisions) of the CEQA Guidelines, California
Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential to have a significant
effect on the environment.
The Class 15 exemption allows the division of property in urbanized areas zoned for
residential, commercial, or industrial use into four or fewer parcels when the division is in
conformance with the General Plan and zoning, no variances or exceptions are required, all
services and access to the proposed parcels are available, the parcel was not involved in a
division of a larger parcel within the previous two years, and the parcel does not have an
average slope greater than 20 percent. The project satisfies all the requirements for the
Class 15 exemption therefore the proposed parcel map is eligible for the Class 15
exemption.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Notice of this public hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to all owners and
residential occupants of property within 300 feet of the boundaries of the site (excluding
intervening rights-of-way and waterways), including the applicant, and posted on the
subject property at least 10 days before the scheduled hearing, consistent with the
provisions of the Municipal Code. A Notice of Filing was posted at the site by the Applicant
as required by Title 21. Additionally, the item appeared on the agenda for this meeting,
which was posted at City Hall and on the City website.

SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
Tentative Parcel Map
The Zoning Administrator determined in this case that the Tentative Parcel Map is consistent
with the legislative intent of NBMC Title 20 (Planning and Zoning) and is approved based on
the following findings per Section 19.12.070 (Required Findings for Action on Tentative Maps)
of the NBMC:
Finding:
A. That the proposed map and the design or improvements of the subdivision are consistent
with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, and with applicable provisions of
the Subdivision Map Act and this Subdivision Code.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Tentative Parcel Map is for four (4)-unit residential condominium purposes with
two (2) units on each legal lot.
2. While the subject properties have historically been developed as a part of a larger
parking lot, they are zoned R-2. A new duplex is now under construction on each lot.
The proposed subdivision and improvements are consistent with the density of the
R-2 Zoning District and the current RT General Plan Land Use Designation.
3. The subject property is not located within a specific plan area.
4. The project is conditioned to require public improvements, including the
reconstruction of sidewalks, curbs, and gutters along the Goldenrod Avenue
frontage, as needed, as well as the undergrounding of utilities, consistent with the
Title 19 (Subdivisions) of the NBMC.
Finding:
B. That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of development.
7
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2020-###
Page 3 of 10
02-03-2020
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The project site is physically suitable for a duplex because it is relatively flat and
rectangular, like the surrounding properties.
2. The subject property is accessible from both Goldenrod Avenue and the alley in the
rear.
3. The site is adequately served by existing utilities, as the site is within an already
developed neighborhood.
4. Fact in Support of Finding A.2 is hereby incorporated by reference.
Finding:
C. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or
their habitat. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the decision making body may
nevertheless approve such a subdivision if an environmental impact report was prepared
for the project and a finding was made pursuant to Section 21081 of the California
Environmental Quality Act that specific economic, social, or other considerations make
infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the environmental
impact report.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The property is located within an existing residential neighborhood that does not
contain any sensitive vegetation or habitat on-site.
2. This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to Section 15315 under Class 15 (Minor Land Divisions) of the CEQA
Guidelines. Section 2 of this Resolution is hereby incorporated by reference.
Finding:
D. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious
public health problems.
Fact in Support of Finding:
1. The Tentative Parcel Map is for condominium purposes. All improvements
associated with the project will comply with all Building, Public Works, and Fire
Codes, which are in place to prevent serious public health problems. Public
improvements will be required of the developer per NBMC Section 19.28.010
(General Improvement Requirements) and Section 66411 (Local agencies to
regulate and control design of subdivisions) of the Subdivision Map Act. All
ordinances of the City and all Conditions of Approval will be complied with.
8
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2020-###
Page 4 of 10
02-03-2020
Finding:
E. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with
easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the
proposed subdivision. In this connection, the decision making body may approve a map if
it finds that alternate easements, for access or for use, will be provided and that these
easements will be substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This
finding shall apply only to easements of record or to easements established by judgment of
a court of competent jurisdiction and no authority is hereby granted to the City Council to
determine that the public at large has acquired easements for access through or use of
property within a subdivision.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Public Works Department has reviewed the proposed Tentative Parcel Map and
determined that the design of the development will not conflict with easements
acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use of property within the
proposed development because no public easements are located on the property.
2. There are no existing easements either through or adjacent to the property.
Finding:
F. That, subject to the detailed provisions of Section 66474.4 of the Subdivision Map Act, if
the land is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation
Act of 1965 (Williamson Act), the resulting parcels following a subdivision of the land would
not be too small to sustain their agricultural use or the subdivision will result in residential
development incidental to the commercial agricultural use of the land.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The property is not subject to the Williamson Act because the subject property is not
designated as an agricultural preserve and is less than 100 acres in area.
2. The site, developed for residential use, lies in a zoning district that permits residential
uses.
Finding:
G. That, in the case of a “land project” as defined in Section 11000.5 of the California Business
and Professions Code: (1) there is an adopted specific plan for the area to be included
within the land project; and (2) the decision making body finds that the proposed land project
is consistent with the specific plan for the area.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. California Business and Professions Code Section 11000.5 has been repealed by
the Legislature. However, this project site is not considered a “land project” as
9
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2020-###
Page 5 of 10
02-03-2020
previously defined in Section 11000.5 of the California Business and Professions
Code because the project site does not contain 50 or more parcels of land.
2. The project is not located within a specific plan area.
Finding:
H. That solar access and passive heating and cooling design requirements have been satisfied
in accordance with Sections 66473.1 and 66475.3 of the Subdivision Map Act.
Fact in Support of Finding:
1. The Tentative Parcel Map and any future improvements are subject to Title 24 of the
California Building Code that requires new construction to meet minimum heating
and cooling efficiency standards depending on location and climate. The Newport
Beach Building Division enforces Title 24 compliance through the plan check and
inspection process.
Finding:
I. That the subdivision is consistent with Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act and
Section 65584 of the California Government Code regarding the City’s share of the regional
housing need and that it balances the housing needs of the region against the public service
needs of the City’s residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.
Fact in Support of Finding:
1. The proposed duplexes are consistent with the R-2 Zoning designation, which allows
two (2) residential units per individual lot. The Tentative Parcel Map will not affect
the City in meeting its regional housing need.
Finding:
J. That the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing sewer system
will not result in a violation of existing requirements prescribed by the Regional Water
Quality Control Board.
Fact in Support of Finding:
1. The residential building under construction has been designed to have wastewater
discharge into the existing sewer system and complies with the Regional Water
Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requirements.
10

02-03-2020
Finding:
K. For subdivisions lying partly or wholly within the Coastal Zone, that the subdivision conforms
with the certified Local Coastal Program and, where applicable, with public access and
recreation policies of Chapter Three of the Coastal Act.
Fact in Support of Finding:
1. The subject property is within the Coastal Zone. All Facts in Support of Findings L
and M are hereby incorporated by reference.
Coastal Development Permit
In accordance with Section 21.52.015 (Coastal Development Permits, Findings and Decision)
of the NBMC, the following findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
L. Conforms to all applicable sections of the certified Local Coastal Program.
Facts in Support of Finding:
1. The Tentative Parcel Map is for four (4)-unit residential condominium purposes. Two (2)
new duplexes are under construction on two (2) separate abutting lots under common
ownership. The proposed subdivision and improvements are consistent with the density
of the R-2 Coastal Zoning District.
2. The project site is not located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline
and approval of the parcel map will not affect public recreation, access or views.
3. The property is located in an area known for the potential of seismic activity. All projects
are required to comply with the California Building Code and Building Division standards
and policies.
4. The Tentative Parcel Map is for a property within a developed neighborhood that is over
1,000 feet from the mean high-water line and is not near any natural landforms or
environmentally sensitive areas.
Finding:
M. 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 not located between the nearest public road and the sea or shoreline.
Implementation Plan Section 21.30A.040 requires that the provision of public access bear
11
Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2020-###
Page 7 of 10
02-03-2020
a reasonable relationship between the requirement and the project’s impact and be
proportional to the impact. In this case, the project the project is a tentative parcel map
for condominium purposes on two (2) properties zoned for two (2)-unit development.
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. Furthermore,
the project is designed and sited (appropriate height, setbacks, etc.) so as not to block or
impede existing public access opportunities.
SECTION 4. DECISION.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
1. The Zoning Administrator of the City of Newport Beach hereby finds the Project is
categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section

2. The approval of Parcel Map No. NP2020-012 and of Coastal Development Permit No.
CD2020-133 shall become final and effective 14 days following the date the Resolution is
adopted unless within such time an appeal or call for review is filed with the Community
Development Director in accordance with the provisions of Title 21 (Local Coastal
Implementation Plan) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. The project site is not located
within the appeal area of the coastal zone; therefore, final action by the City may not be

And …. to add to that, we are supportive of their request for individual parcels.

Hi Amanda — from our perspective (as the question asker) I don’t have a need
for this to be added in, but will leave the determination up to you. We were not
objecting, simply asking to understand the notice that we received.
Thanks

Hi Joselyn,
Do you want this to be added as Additional Materials? Since you
were just answering her questions, I don't think this would need to
count as a public comment to be added to the record... up to you
though.

Hello Amy,
Zoning Administrator - October 29, 2020
Item No. 4a Additional Materials Received After Printing
Goldenrod, a California Limited Liability LLC Residential Condominiums Tentative Parcel Map and CDP (PA2020-248)
You are correct-- there are currently two duplexes currently under construction.
Both properties are located within an area of the Coastal Zone that is exempted
from obtaining approval of a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) for specific
types of development. This area, known as the Categorical Exclusion Order
(CEO) area, allows for the construction of a new, two-unit, residential structure
without obtaining a CDP (contingent upon providing a notice of exclusion to the
Coastal Commission). The duplex at 506 Goldenrod Avenue is being constructed
pursuant to CEO2017052 and the duplex at 508 Goldenrod Avenue is being
constructed pursuant to CEO2017052. This hearing is not to approve/deny the
construction of the duplexes.
The reason this item is going to hearing now is to request the approval of a
tentative parcel map. The tentative parcel map will allow each unit to be sold
individually. If the Zoning Administrator were to deny this request for a parcel
map, the duplexes would still be built however each unit would not be able to be
sold individually. While the project site is located within the CEO area of the
Coastal Zone, the approval of a tentative parcel map is not included as exempted
development in the exclusion order. The approval of a tentative parcel map
requires a CDP.
Please let me know if you have any other questions. I would be more than happy
to give you a call.
Sincerely,
JOSELYN PEREZ

Hi Joselyn,
We live across the street from the units currently under construction (Goldenrod
Residential Condos) and just received your notice about the hearing on Oct 29th.
The notice sounds as though they are looking for permission to construct two
separate 2-unit condos. Is that correct? If so, I’m confused as to why this
hearing is taking place. They are already under construction, so that not what
they are already approved to do?
Thanks for the clarification,
Amy
