SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION.
1. The project is categorically exempt under Section 15303, of the California

categorical exemption under Class 3.
SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
1. Use Permit Findings
In accordance with Section 20.82.050.13 and Section 20.89.030 of the Zoning Code, the
proposed take -out service eating and drinking establishment and the introduction of beer and
wine service require findings to be made for approval of a new use permit. The following
information is presented in support of the required Use Permit findings:
Finding:
A. That the proposed location of the use is in accord with the objectives of this code and the
purposes of the district in which the site is located.
Facts in Support of Finding:
A -1. The renovated shopping center will provide a variety of retail and service uses,
which serve the surrounding residential community. The proposed project will
provide a new tenant to the shopping center for the surrounding neighborhood.
The new tenant mix for the shopping center allows the property owner to best
serve the needs and quality of life for the surrounding community and visitors to
the area.
A -2. The project is located in the RSC (Retail and Service Commercial) land use
area of the SP -6 (Cannery Village /McFadden Square Specific Plan) Zoning
District, which is intended to provide for retail sales, personal and professional
uses that offer direct services to the public and marine - related light industrial
uses. This designation allows a wide range of uses and services
Tmplt: 04/14110
Planning Commission Resolution No. 1827
Page 3 of 15
accommodating both residents and visitors, the boating industry, and will also
provide continuity between districts and increase the potential for "shared sales"
from pedestrians. The proposed eating and drinking establishment with
accessory outdoor dining is consistent with land uses permitted by the RSC
land use designation in the SP -6 Zoning District.
Finding:
B. That the proposed location of the use pen-nit and the proposed conditions under which it
would be operated or maintained will be consistent with the General Plan and the
purpose of the district in which the site is located; will not be detrimental to the public
health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, or welfare of persons residing or working in or
adjacent to the neighborhood of such use; and will not be detrimental to the properties or
improvements in the vicinity or to the general welfare of the city.
Facts in Support of Finding:
B -1. The General Plan land use designation for this site is CN (Neighborhood
Commercial). The CN designation is intended to provide for a limited range of
retail and service uses developed in one or more distinct centers oriented to
serve the needs of and maintain compatibility with residential uses in the
immediate area. An eating and drinking establishment with alcohol sales and
accessory outdoor dining is a consistent use within this land use designation.
Restaurant uses can be expected to be found in this area and similar locations
and are complementary to the surrounding commercial and residential uses.
B -2. A restaurant has been operated in this location since 1963 pursuant to Use Permit
No. 989 and has not proven detrimental to the area.
B -3. The operation of the restaurant and outdoor patio will be restricted to the hours
between 11:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m., daily.
B -4. The project includes conditions of approval to ensure that potential conflicts are
minimized to the greatest extent possible. The restaurant is oriented toward
Newport Boulevard and the parking lot in a manner that shields the restaurant
activity from the residential uses south of the shopping center and across 32 °d
Street.
B -5. No dancing or live entertainment will be provided on the premises.
B -6. The operational conditions of approval recommended by the Police Department
relative to the sale of alcoholic beverages will ensure compatibility with the
surrounding uses and minimize alcohol related impacts.
B -7. The project has been conditioned to ensure the welfare of the surrounding
community so that the business remains a restaurant and does not become a bar
ortavern.
Tmplt: 04/14110
Planning Commission Resolution No. 1827
Page 4 of 15
B -8 The applicant is required to install a grease interceptor, obtain Health Department
approval prior to opening for business, and comply with the California Building
Code to ensure the safety and welfare of customers and employees within the
establishment.
B -9. The proposed project and requested discretionary applications are consistent
with relevant General Plan policies.
Findincr
C. That the proposed use will comply with the provisions of this code, including any specific
conditions required for the proposed use in the district in which it would be located.
Facts in Support of Finding_
C -1. Take -out service restaurants are a permitted use in the RSC (Retail and
Service Commercial) Sub -Area of the SP -6 (Cannery Village Specific Plan)
Zoning District, subject to approval of a use permit. The project conforms to the
development standards of the Zoning Code.
C -2. The project has been reviewed and conditioned to ensure that potential conflicts
with the surrounding land uses are minimized to the greatest extent possible. The
operator is required to take reasonable steps to discourage and correct
objectionable conditions that constitute a nuisance in parking areas, sidewalks
and areas surrounding the restaurant and adjacent properties during business
hours if directly related to the patrons of the shopping center.
C -3. The project has been reviewed and conditioned to ensure that the purpose and
intent of Chapter 20.89 (Alcoholic Beverage Outlet) of the Zoning Code is
maintained and that a healthy environment for residents and businesses is
preserved. The service of beer and wine is intended for the convenience of
customers dining at the restaurant. Operational conditions of approval
recommended by the Police Department relative to the sale of alcoholic
beverages will ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses and minimize
alcohol related impacts.
2. Accessory Outdoor Dining
In accordance with Section 20.82.050.13 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the following
information is presented in support of the required Accessory Outdoor Dining findings:
Finding:
A. That the proposed outdoor dining is accessory to the Eating and Drinking
Establishment.
Tmpll: 0414/10
Planning Commission Resolution No. 1827
Page 5 of 15
Facts in Support of Finding:
A -1. The establishment provides 336 square feet of outdoor dining area. The portion
of this square footage (211 square feet) that exceeds the 25 percent allowance
for parking purposes has been added to the calculation toward the 15 percent
of maximum floor area permitted for eating and drinking establishments within
the shopping center.
A -2. The outdoor dining is accessory to the restaurant use, subject to the operational
characteristics of the restaurant use, except as limited by this approval and is
not an independent use.
A -3. Alcohol will not be served or allowed on the outdoor patio.
A -4. The project provides a railing to clearly identify the boundaries of the outdoor
patio so that the Code Enforcement division can easily identify the limits of the
outdoor dining area.
Finding:
B. The establishment, maintenance or operation of the accessory outdoor dining will not,
under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety,
peace, comfort and general welfare of persons residing or working in the
neighborhood or injurious to property or improvements in the area.
Facts in Support of Finding:
B -1. The outdoor dining area, as conditioned, is compatible with the surrounding
land uses. The limited hours of operation and the establishment's distance from
residential land uses should alleviate potential noise from adversely impacting
the nearby residential uses. The project does not include any noise generating
activities outside of the facility (i.e., entertainment). The approval has been
conditioned to prohibit these uses in the outdoor dining area.
B -2. The hours of operation for the outdoor dining area will be the same as the
interior of the establishment from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., daily.
B -3. The operation of the proposed development is anticipated to increase the
outdoor noise level in the immediate vicinity. If use of the outdoor dining area
results in noise complaints, the Planning Department may require the removal
of all, or a portion of the outdoor seating or choose another remedy in
accordance with the conditions of approval.
B-4. The approval has also been conditioned to prohibit the use of a sound system,
speakers, pre- recorded music, or paging of patrons in the outdoor dining area.
Tmplt: 04/14/10
Planning Commission Resolution No. 1827
Page 6 of 15
B -5. The restrictions on the use of solid roof structures as applied to this approval
are consistent with the intent and purpose of Section No. 20.82.050 (Accessory
Outdoor Dining) of the Zoning Code.
Finding:
C. That the proposed accessory outdoor dining will not be located so as to result in
reduction of existing parking spaces.
Facts in Support of Finding:
C -1. In accordance with the provisions of Chapter 20.82 of the Newport Beach
Municipal Code, accessory outdoor dining requires no additional parking if it is
less than 25 percent of the interior net public area. The additional 211 square
feet of outdoor dining area has been deducted from the 15 percent gross floor
area limitation for eating and drinking establishment uses.
C -2. The required parking for the portion of the outdoor patio that exceeds 25 percent
of the interior net public area has been waived by Amendment No. 1 to Use
Permit No. UP2010 -002.
C -3. The accessory outdoor dining is located at the side of the business adjacent to
Newport Boulevard and does not result in a reduction of parking spaces.
C-4. Adequate site distance has been provided for motorists to see bicycles and
pedestrians in the vicinity while exiting onto Newport Boulevard.
