Dear Ms. Kisslring:
The above referenced property is currently located within the Corporate Plaza
(PC17) Zoning District and designated as Regional Commercial Office (CO-R)
within the Land Use Element of the General Plan. The property is not located
within a Planned Unit Development or an overlay district, however the property is
subject to the Sight Plane View Ordinance No. 1371.
For the abutting properties to the north, east, and west, the Zoning District is
Corporate Plaza (PC17) and the General Plan land use designation is Regional
Commercial Office (CO-R). For the abutting properties to the south, the Zoning
Districts are Single-Unit Residential (RS-D) with the Single Unit Residential
Detached (RS-D) General Plan land use designation and Office-General (OG) with
the General Commercial Office (CO-G) General Plan land use designation.
At the time the building permits were finaled, the building and parking requirements
were in substantial conformance with the development standards of the City of
Newport Beach Municipal Code. If the subject property does not comply with the
current regulations, it is considered to be nonconforming and is subject to Chapter
20.38 (Nonconforming Uses and Structures) of the Newport Beach Municipal
Code.
Research of the permit and entitlement history of the property verifies that
