HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on Thursday, August 10, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. or soon thereafter as the matter shall be heard, a public hearing will be conducted online via Zoom. The Zoning Administrator of the City of Newport Beach will consider the following application:
Fletcher Residence – A coastal development permit (CDP) to allow the demolition of an existing 2,286-square foot, one (1)-story, single-unit dwelling with an attached 600-square-foot, two (2)-car garage and construction of a new 6,186-square-foot, three (3)-story, single-unit dwelling with an attached 849-square-foot, three (3)-car garage. The project includes landscape, hardscape, drainage, and accessory structures all within the confines of the property. The project includes raising the height of the existing bulkhead. The project complies with all development standards and no deviations are requested. All improvements authorized by this CDP will be located
on private property. The subject property is bisected by the coastal permit jurisdiction boundary, resulting in the dock and boat slip
within California Coastal Commission’s permit jurisdiction. This Coastal Development Permit is intended to cover portions of the project within the City’s permit authority as designated in the Local Coastal Program (Title 21 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code).
The project is categorically exempt under Section 15303 under Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) of the State CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) Guidelines.
All interested parties may appear and present testimony in regard to this application. If you challenge this project in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you raised at the public hearing or in written
correspondence delivered to the City, at, or prior to, the public hearing. The application may be continued to a specific future meeting date, and if such an action occurs, additional public notice of the continuance will not be provided. Administrative procedures for appeals are provided in the Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 21.64. A fee is not required to appeal any final action on a coastal development permit to the Planning Commission. A fee is required to appeal any final action on a coastal development permit to the City Council. The project site is located within the appeal area of the coastal zone; therefore, final action by the City may be appealed to the California Coastal Commission.
The agenda, staff report, and corresponding documents will be available by end of business day on the Friday preceding the public hearing and may be reviewed at the Community Development Department Permit Center
