The Zoning Administrator asked the applicant if they understood that if the third floor area were to be enclosed after the fact, it would violate the Zoning Code and be subject to removal. Staff stated that the applicant was not present; however, staff alerted the applicant to this issue that the third floor area and design shall remain substantially open. The Zoning Administrator opened the public hearing. Seeing that no one from the public wished to comment, the public hearing was closed. Action: Approved ITEM NO. 8 Harris Residence Coastal Development Permit No. CD2019-042 (PA2019-153) Site Location: 5311 Seashore Drive Council District 1 Liane Schuller, Planning Consultant, provided a brief project description stating that the project site is an oceanfront property in the R-1 zoning district. The property is currently developed with existing single-family residence and attached garage. The applicant is requesting approval to demolish the existing residence and construct a new 1,952-square-foot single-family residence with an attached two-car garage. A coastal development permit is required for the demolition and new construction within the coastal zone. The project complies with all applicable development standards, including the standards and approval requirements of the City’s Local Coastal Program. The proposed work is located entirely within the confines of the private property, and is consistent with the existing pattern of development in the vicinity. The property has an existing encroachment permit for an on-grade patio with low walls, allowed by the development guidelines in Appendix C of Title 21. No changes are proposed to the existing patio. Public coastal access is provided and will continue to be provided by street ends throughout the neighborhood, including 54th Street immediately adjacent to the project site, and there is no intensification of use that would create an increased demand for access and recreation opportunities. The proposed design includes relocation of the existing driveway approach on 54th Street to Seashore Drive, which will result in the addition of one on-street public parking space. The Zoning Administrator opened the public hearing. One member of the public, Jim Mosher, spoke and questioned whether an additional parking space would actually be created or if Public Works would paint the curb red. Ms. Schuller clarified the project creates the opportunity to add a public parking space. The Zoning Administrator closed the public hearing. Action: Approved ITEM NO. 9 Barnes Residence Coastal Development Permit No. CD2019-041 (PA2019-159) Site Location: 283 Cambridge Way Council District 5 Liane Schuller, Planning Consultant, provided a brief project description stating that the applicant is requesting approval to remove and replace an existing manufactured home on the project site, located in the Bayside Village Mobile Home Park. Project includes a single-car carport, entry stairs and landings, hardscape and landscape. A local coastal development permit is required for the removal and replacement of the residence, and subsequently the California Department of Housing and Community Development will oversee the construction permitting process. The project complies with the standards and approval requirements of the City’s Local Coastal Program. Public coastal access and view opportunities will not be affected or altered by the project. Bayside Drive bisects the north and south parcels of the Bayside Village Mobile Home Park and provides access to Newport Dunes, which provides several coastal recreational opportunities for the public’s use.
