The Parking Analysis provided calculated the parking rate for Suite 120 as 1 per 250
sf for retail use. A Massage Establishment requires a parking rate of 1 per 200 sf and
requires 2 more parking spaces than what was considered in the parking analysis.

Massage Establishments 1 per 200 sq. ft. or as required by conditional use permit
Approval of this use permit can determine a less intensive parking rate of 1 per 250
sq ft. (8 parking spaces required). However, a Condition of Approval would be

establishment, including any employees.

If this Condition of Approval does not work for your operation, then Section
20.40.110(D) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code allows for a 20% reduction in
parking with a Director’s approval. This property may qualify for this reduction and an
updated parking analysis with updated parking calculations must be provided to
account for the increase in parking rate.
5. Clarify in the plans if the “Journey Rooms” will provide privacy screening.
6. The plans indicate the Gross Project Area as 2,003 SF on Sheet GP.1 and 1,903 SF
on Sheet A-1.0. Additionally, the Parking Analysis table indicates that Suite 120 is
1,929 SF. Clarify this discrepancy in the square footage of this suite space.
7. This project is pending review from the Building Department and Police Department.
Once their review is complete, comments/corrections will be provided and must be
addressed, if any.
Upon verification of completion, the application will be processed and scheduled for a
Zoning Administrator Hearing. Should you have any questions regarding submittal
requirements, please contact Jenny Tran, Assistant Planner at 949-644-3212 or
