NEWPORT BEACH RECOMMENDING ADOPTION OF A MITIGATED
NEGATIVE DECLARATION (SCH #2012111074) FOR THE CITY HALL
REUSE PROJECT AMENDMENTS AFFECTING A 4.26 ACRE PROPERTY
AT 3300 NEWPORT BOULEVARD AND 475 32nd STREET (PA2012 -031)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS
FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS.
On April 24, 2012, the City of Newport Beach initiated amendments of the General
Plan, Coastal Land Use Plan, and Zoning Code with respect to a 4.26 acre property
located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Newport Boulevard and 32nd
Street, legally described in Exhibit A. The amendments are generally described as
follows:
a) General Plan Amendment No. GP2012 -002 includes a text and a land use map
change to replace the existing Public Facilities (PF) designation for the site with
a new mixed -use land use category (MU -H5) and establish density and
intensity limits within Table LU -2 of the Land Use Element.
b) Coastal Land Use Plan Amendment No. LC2012 -001 includes a text and map
change to replace the existing Public Facilities (PF) designation for the site with
a new mixed -use land use category (MU) and establish density and intensity
limits within Table 2.1.1 -1. The proposed amendment also includes a change to
Policy 4.4.2 -1 to establish a policy basis for higher height limits.
c) Zoning Code Amendment No. CA2012 -003 includes a text and map change to
replace the existing Public Facilities (PF) zoning designation for the site with a
new zone MU -LV (Mixed- Use -Lido Village) and establish density and intensity
limits consistent with the proposed General Plan amendment (Anomaly #80).
Development standards and allowed uses would also be established.
2. A public hearing was held on January 17, 2013, in the City Hall Council Chambers, at
3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California. A notice of the time, place and
purpose of the aforesaid meeting was provided in accordance with CEQA and the
Newport Beach Municipal Code ( "NBMC "). The draft Initial Study /Mitigated Negative
Declaration, Comments and Responses to Comments, Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program, staff report, and evidence, both written and oral were presented to
and considered by the Planning Commission at the scheduled hearing.
SECTION 2. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT DETERMINATION
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, Public Resources Code Section
21000, et seq. ( "CEQA "), the CEQA Guidelines (14 Cal. Code of Regulations,
Planning Commission Resolution No. 1905
Page 2 of 15
Sections 15000 et seq.), and City Council Policy K -3, the proposed amendments
( "Project') are defined as a project and as such as subject to environmental review.
The City thereafter caused to be prepared an Initial Study /Mitigated Negative
Declaration (SCH No. 2012111074) ( "MND ") in compliance with CEQA, the State
CEQA Guidelines and City Council Policy K -3.
3. Notice of the availability of the draft MND was given in accordance with CEQA, the
State CEQA Guidelines and City Council Policy K -3. The draft MND was made
available for public review for a 30 -day comment period beginning on November 26,
2012, and ending December 26, 2012. The City received three comments letters
during the public review period and the comments and responses to the comments
were considered by the Planning Commission during its consideration of the proposed
Project.
4. On the basis of the entire environmental review record, the proposed Project will have
a less than significant impact upon the environment with the incorporation of mitigation
measures identified in IS /MND and in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program (MMRP). The mitigation measures are feasible and reduce potential
environmental impacts to a less than significant level. The mitigation measures would
be applied to future development of the site consistent with the proposed amendments
through the MMRP.
SECTION 3. DECISION
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach hereby recommends City Council
adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program for the City Hall Reuse Project Amendments (SCH #2012111074) attached as
Exhibits B and C respectively.

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City of Newport Beach prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and
Initial Study for the proposed Newport Beach City Hall Reuse Project located in the City of Newport Beach. The MND indicated that the potential
adverse environmental impacts of the project, in terms of Aesthetics, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Noise, and Public Services (i.e., Fire
Protection) could be mitigated to below levels of significance. The mitigation measures have been incorporated into the project and the MND is
scheduled for adoption by the City of Newport Beach, in conjunction with the approval of the project. In addition to the mitigation measures, several
standard conditions and /or project design features have also been incorporated into the proposed project that avoid or reduce potentially significant
impacts. The standard conditions are also listed in the MMRP.
Section 21081.6 of the Public Resources Code (PRC) and CEQA Guidelines section 15097 require the Lead Agency for each project which is
subject to the CEQA to monitor performance of the mitigation measures included in any environmental document to ensure that implementation
does, in fact, take place. The PRC requires the Lead Agency to adopt a monitoring and reporting program that is designed to ensure compliance
during project implementation.. In accordance with PRC Section 21081.6 and CEQA Guidelines section 15097, this Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program (MMRP) has been developed for the Newport Beach City Hall Reuse project.
MITIGATION MEASURES
The mitigation measures which are required to reduce or avoid the potentially significant adverse impacts of future development on the project site
are listed in Table 1, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Responsible parties, the time frame for implementation, and the
monitoring parties are also identified for each measure. In order to determine if the responsible party has implemented these measures, the
method of verification is also identified, along with the City of Newport Beach department or agency responsible for monitoring /verifying that the
responsible party has completed each mitigation measure.
