explained that the area occupied by the service bays was not
calculated in the parking requirement inasmuch as the retail
sales are located only in the showroom. Discussion ensued with
regard to a customer -requesting only the installation of
equipment.
In response to a question posed by Chairman Pomeroy with
regard to the chain located on the premises, Don Webb, City
Engineer, replied that the chain across the driveway could be
removed.
The public hearing was opened in connection with this item, and
Mr. Ted Dean, 2678 Raven Circle, Corona, appeared before the
Planning Commission on behalf of the applicants. Mr. Dean
stated that the chain was installed to keep the public from
driving to the rear of the facility. Chairman Pomeroy
commented that when the chain is installed across the driveway
it is necessary to back a vehicle directly out on to West Coast
Highway.
Mr. Dean commented that the custom business does not compete
with large establishments that serve the general public. Mr.
Dean stated that additional parking spaces could be provided if
a 450 square foot service bay were eliminated. He explained
that two service bays have been enclosed to comply with the
conditions imposed by the City.
In response to a question posed by Mr. Hewicker, Mr. Dean
replied that with very few exceptions the applicant does not
install equipment that is not sold on the premises.
Mrs. Nancy Clark, applicant, appeared before the Planning
Commission. In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Merrill with regard to keeping the parking space located directly
in front of the building open for customers, Mrs. Clark explained
that occasionally an employee will park in said parking space.
Mrs. Clark commented that the employees generally park at the
rear of the building.
Commissioner Di Sano addressed his concerns with regard to the
size of the site, and if the site is capable of allowing the
establishment to function in the manner the applicants wish to
operate the business. Mrs. Clark replied that the applicants do
not intend to expand the business further than the requested
service bays. In response to a question posed by Commissioner

Di Sano with regard to the parking layout, Mrs. Clark replied
that a service bay could be eliminated and a parking space
added.
Discussion ensued regarding the procedure that is taken after an
automobile is dropped off for equipment installation. Mrs. Clark
explained that customer appointments are arranged in a manner
that automobiles are not parked waiting for equipment
installation, that one installer is employed per service bay, and
the applicants provide a service wherein automobiles are picked
up and delivered to the customer.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Glover, Mrs.
Clark stated that the business employs seven employees, including
the applicants. Mr. Hewicker stated that the proposed expansion
consists of 13 parking spaces including the service bays or 8
parking spaces not including the service bays. Mr. Laycock
referred to staffs recommended alternative parking plan that
would provide 8 parking spaces for employees and 4 customer
parking spaces, including i handicapped parking space, but not
including the service bays. Mrs. Clark stated that two outside
salesmen and customers park at the side of the building.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Merrill
regarding the parking spaces, Mr. Dean stated that he preferred
staffs alternative parking plan inasmuch as said plan provides 12
parking spaces including i handicapped parking space. He said
that said plan provides 7 parking spaces at the rear of the
building and 5 parking spaces in the front of the building.
Discussion ensued between Mr. Dean and the Planning
Commission with regard to the number of existing service bays,
parking spaces, and employees. -*
In response to a request for clarification posed by Commissioner
Glover, Mrs. Clark replied that the facility does not provide body
work within the installation bays, and the business only installs
equipment that the operation sells retail.
In response to a question posed by Chairman Pomeroy, Mr.
Dean replied that installation of equipment in large motor
vehicles is accomplished at another site.
Commissioner Edwards addressed Condition No. 4 in Exhibit "A"
with regard to the number of parking spaces. Mr. Laycock

explained that said condition relates to the alternate parking plan
as proposed by staff: 12 parking spaces, including 2 tandem
parking spaces at the rear of the site, 2 parking spaces (nos. 8
and 9) between the buildings, and the handicapped parking space
would be installed in the driveway. Mr. Laycock explained that
when West Coast Highway is widened, that Parking Space No. 12
indicated on the Alternative Parking Plan would be eliminated.
Chairman Pomeroy stated that .the 12 parking spaces would be
in addition to the 5 service bays. Mr. Laycock further
commented that the applicants informed staff that 8 employees
are proposed at' a future time.
In response to a question'posed by Commissioner Di Sano, Mrs.
Clark explained that when staff originally requested the number
of employees, she responded 8 employees inasmuch as she was
anticipating an additional employee in the future.
In response to a request for clarification posed by Commissioner
Merrill, discussion ensued with regard to the Alternate Plan
consisting of 5 service bays, 12 parking spaces, maximum
consideration of 8 employees, and the elimination of one parking
space when West Coast Highway is widened. Mr. Laycock
explained that 4 parking spaces would be available for customers
with the Alternate Parking Plan until one of said spaces were
eliminated with the widening of West Coast Highway.
Commissioner.Glover addressed her concern that the applicants
have requested to expand the business by amending the use
permit when, in fact, the applicants did not comply with the
conditions of the original -use permit.
In response to a question . posed by Chairman Pomeroy, Mr.
Dean stated that the applicants. kould agree to eliminate one
service bay so as to provide one additional parking space.
Discussion ensued between Commissioner Merrill and Mr.
Hewicker with . regard to the installation of equipment in the
outside areas, and the number of proposed service bays.
Robin Flory, Assistant City Attorney, stated that the applicants
apparently did not understand the time frame to accomplish the
conditions of approval in the original use permit, and she
suggested that a time frame be considered in the conditions of
approval if the Planning Commission approves this application.

regard to the approval of the Coastal Commission prior to the
issuance of building permits and the implementation of the use
permit. Mr. Hewicker stated that the applicants received approval
of the original use permit from the Coastal Commission, and the
driveway was recently installed onto West Coast Highway in
accordance with the agreement with the City Council.
Mr. Dean stated that the applicants have read and concur with
the findings and conditions in Exhibit "W.
Dr. Jan VanderSloot, 2221 - 16th Street, appeared before the
Planning Commission. Dr. VanderSloot addressed his concerns
regarding the number of required parking spaces. He pointed
out that the applicants have requested to amend the original use
permit which would intensify the business use, and he requested
that one service bay be eliminated so as to add two parking
spaces. Dr. VanderSloot suggested that all of the employees be
required to park in the adjacent Municipal Parking Lot which
would leave all of the on -site parking spaces for customers.
Commissioner Pers6n responded that the employees would park
in the neighborhood instead of the Municipal Parking Lot.
Mrs. Janine Gault, 406 San Bernadino Avenue, appeared before
the Planning Commission on behalf of the Newport Heights
Community Association's recommendation that one of the service
bays be eliminated so as to provide additional parking spaces.
There being no others desiring to appear and be heard, the
public hearing was closed at this time.
Commissioner Dj Sano stated that, it would be imprudent to
permit the applicants •additional service bays than the original use
permit so as to expand the business inasmuch as the site is too
small for the 'existing activity on -site.
Commissioner.Pers6n addressed the agreement between the City
Council and the applicants, and he asked if it would be possible
to refer the application to the City'Council without action. Mrs.
Flory affirmatively replied.

Motion
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
In response to a request posed by Commissioner Glover
regarding Exhibit "A", Mr. Laycock stated that the approval of
Exhibit "A" would allow 5 service bays inasmuch as Condition
No. 1 states -that the proposed project shall be in substantial
conformance with the approved alternative site plan which
includes tandem parking spaces at the rear of the building and
5 service bays proposed by the applicant. In response to
Commissioner, Glover's• concern- with regard to the number of
proposed service bays, Mr. Hewicker suggested that a condition
could be added indicating that two service bays could be
converted to parking spaces: Mr. Laycock commented that the
business was allowed only two covered service bays originally,
but additional . installation activities were illegally conducted
outside.
Commissioner Pers6n made a motion to forward Use Permit No.
3321 (Amended) to the City Council with no action.
Chairman Pomeroy suggested that the Planning Commission
make recommendations to the City Council. Discussion ensued
between Chairman Pomeroy and Commissioner Pers6n regarding
the intensity of development on the site. Chairman Pomeroy
agreed to not encourage the intensity of the use; however, he
suggested that a condition be added that would require the
parking lot restriping to occur before any construction
commences, and that 5 service bays should not be allowed.
Commissioner Pers6n commented that the business demands
more service bays,' and he stated his concern that the
installation of equipment could occur illegally outside.

statements. F

no recommendation only permits the applicants to abide by the

the location and the motion directs the City Council to make the
final decision.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Merrill, Mr.
Hewicker replied that the 3 covered service bays at the front of
the property would be easier to monitor than not being specific
about what service bays could be used. Commissioner Merrill
concurred, and he said that 3 bays would also limit the number
of employees.

DATE: March 19, 1991
TIME: 1:30 p.m.
DEPT: 23 ,
I, JAMES M. SINASEK, declare as follows:
1. I am employed by the City of Newport Beach as a Code
Enforcement Supervisor. On January 28, 1991, I signed a
Declaration which was submitted in support of Plaintiff's Motion
for Preliminary Injunction. Since that time I have again
personally viewed'the premises at 2906 West Coast Highway, and I
now wish to supplement my original Declaration with an updated
report of the conditions at "Newport Soundwaves."

2. The photographs of "Newport Soundwaves", which are
attached to this Declaration as Exhibits "A", "B" and "C" were
taken, at my request, by George Reis, a Photo I.D. Technician with
the Newport Beach Police Department, on the following dates:
Exhibit "A" - February 26, 1991
Exhibit "B" - March 4, 1991
Exhibit "C" - March 8, 1991
3. I personally observed the premises of "Newport
Soundwaves" on February 26, 1991, March 4, 1991 and March 8, 1991,
and can verify that the photographs attached as Exhibits "A", "B"
and "C" accurately depict the property at 2906 West Coast Highway,
Newport Beach, California on these dates, at which time I
personally observed the following conditions at the property:
A. Illegal Awning
As shown in Exhibit "B", a large white awning has been
erected over the outdoor installation bays. This awning was
erected after the recent heavy .rains in the County. No
permit for this temporary structure has been issued by either
the Director of Community Development or the Planning
Commission. The existence of this permitless awning on the
property thus violates Section 20.30.015 of the Newport Beach
Municipal Code, which requires that approval be obtained from
the City of Newport Beach prior to the erection or use of a
temporary structure on property within a commercial district.
B. Outdoor Installation
There are still three operable exterior service bays on
the property to service customers. I have seen cars under
the illegal awning parked there for service.

C. Insufficient Parking
As all three photographs show, the black Mercedes
Limousine is continuously parked in front of "Newport
Soundwaves" and renders one designated public parking space
permanently unavailable. The license plates, which read "GEN
RAL" have been removed from the limousine and it now has no
license plates at all. As I believe it is illegal for a
vehicle to be operated on public streets without license
plates, I have no reason to believe that this car ever leaves
the "Newport Soundwaves" premises.
There still are less than fourteen (14) marked and
designated parking spaces on the property. The aerial view
in Exhibit "B" clearly shows the lack of designated parking
at "Newport Soundwaves", in stark contrast to the properly
striped parking spaces on the property next to "Newport
Soundwaves".
Abandoned vehicles are still stored on the rear of the
property, taking up public parking spaces.
D. Inadeauate Containerized Landscaping
As the photographs show, I still have never seen any
containerized landscaping on the property.
E. Non -Conformance With Alternative
Site Plan/Plot Plan
Indoor service bays have still not been constructed and
the additional parking has still not been provided. Plans
for this project have still not been submitted to the
Planning Department for approval

Mrs. Nancy Clark, owner of Newport Sound Waves, appeared
before the Planning Commission. Mrs. Clark requested a
continuance of the item to October 19, 1989, to allow the
Planning Commission additional time to review the submitted
revised plans. She explained that the parking plans have become
a problem inasmuch as the applicants have a desire to expand
the business, and the plans previously submitted were not
approved by staff.
In response to a question posed by Acting Chairman Debay
the applicants not returning telephone calls, Mrs. Clark
regarding
explained that she received one telephone message too late to
return on Friday from Mr. Ward, Senior Planner. She explained
that she is not always available at the business and does not
receive messages from the employees.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Di Sano
regarding the letters to the applicants from staff stating that the
applicants have not complied with the conditions of approval,
Mrs. Clark explained that estimates have been received regarding
the driveway and the property owner has agreed to pay for one-
half of the expense. She stated that inasmuch as the parking plan
was not approved, the applicants could not stripe the parking
area; however, the paint and signs have been purchased.
Commissioner Edwards addressed the number of conditions that
the applicants have not complied with, not implemented or
maintained. Mr. Hewicker stated that as a result of the
problems that the applicants have had in submitting the new
plans, the applicants propose to request that the Planning
Commission amend some of the conditions previously imposed.
Mr. Hewicker stated that the applicants are not in compliance
with 11 conditions, and the reason is that the applicants are
attempting to find alternatives.
Commissioner Pers6n stated that at the August 18, 1988 Planning
Commission meeting, the applicant, Mrs. Clark, was present, and
agreed with Use Permit No. 3321, findings and conditions.
Commissioner Pers6n asked Mrs. Clark if she received the notice

from the City dated October 18, 1988, stating that the applicant
could not implement the use permit until the conditions have
been complied with, and Mrs. Clark agreed that she had received
the letter. Commissioner Pers6n stated that one condition that
was not implemented was that the applicant shall apply for and
obtain a Coastal Development Permit prior to occupancy and
authoi ration of the use permit, and Mrs. Clark agreed to said
condit: )n. Commissioner Pers6n stated that one year and 14
days after the August 18, 1988, Planning Commission meeting, on
September 2, 1989, the applicants applied for a Coastal
Development Permit, and he asked if the applicants had the
Permit now. Mrs. Clark replied "no", that the applicants had
submitted the application twice and twice it had been returned
because it was incomplete. Commissioner Pers6n stated that
during the past 12 months the City advised the applicants that
they were violating Condition No. 6, installing, window tinting
and auto detailing outside of the building. Mrs. Clark replied
that they are no longer window tinting or auto detailing;
however, occasionally quick stereo installations have been done
outside. Commissioner Pers6n commented that maybe the size
of the facility is not adequate. Mrs. Clark agreed.
In response to Commissioner Pers6n's statement regarding the
applicant's submission of documents, Robin Flory, Assistant City
Attorney, explained that the Planning Commission may continue
the public hearing to consider the submitted documents; however,
the Planning Commission is not required to consider the
documents.
Commissioner Pers6n asked Mrs. Clark if the applicants
submitted a circulation plan. Mrs. Clark affirmatively replied
that the plan submitted prior to the subject public hearing was
an on -site vehicular and pedestrian circulation parking plan. In
response to questions posed by Commissioner Pers6n, Mrs. Clark
stated that she read the subject staff report, that she recognized
the letters that the City sent to the applicants, and that she has
had meetings with staff during the past 12 months.
Mr. Cameron Quinn, attorney for the applicants, appeared before

This is a request to consider the revocation of Use Permit No. 3321 for Newport Sound
Waves due to failure to comply with specific Conditions of Approval. In accordance with
Section 20.80.090 B of the Municipal Code, any use permit granted in accordance with

of the Planning Commission.
Background
At its meeting of November 13, 1989, the City Council considered the Planning
Commission's recommendation to revoke Use Permit No. 3321. At that time, the City
Council voted to continue the matter to its meeting of November 27, 1989, so as to allow
additional time for staff to meet with the applicants, determine appropriate restrictions
TO: City Council - 2.
on the business, and prepare an agreement that would allow the Council to revoke the
use permit in the event of noncompliance with the restrictions. On November 27, 1989,
the City Council authorized the subject agreement, and continued the public hearing for
the revocation of Use Permit No. 3321 to its meeting of February 12, 1990.
The restrictions of the agreement are set forth in the letter agreement signed by Nancy
Clark and included as an attachment to the attached Planning Commission staff report,
dated January 4, 1990. In accordance with paragraph "H" of said agreement, Newport
Sound Waves was required to submit an application to amend Use Permit No. 3321 on
or before December 8, 1989, and, upon approval, diligently pursue compliance with all
conditions imposed by the Planning Commission on review or appeal.
At its meeting of January 4, 1990, the Planning Commission approved (4 Ayes, 2 Noes,
i Absent) an amendment to Use Permit No. 3321 which involved a request -to amend
certain conditions of the original use permit regarding the number and location of off-
street parking and to permit the additional service bays on the property. The Planning
Commission's approval limited the number of service bays to three (where five service
bays had been requested) and required that 14 on -site parking spaces be provided for
employee and customer parking. It was also pointed out to the Planning Commission that
all of the terms and conditions of the agreement had been fulfilled. A list of all the
Planning Commission's Findings and Conditions of Approval are set forth in the attached
excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes dated January 4, 1990. Staff has also
attached a copy of the January 4, 1990 Planning Commission staff report for Use Permit
No. 3321 (Amended).
In light of the Planning Commission's approval of Use Permit No. 3321 (Amended) and
the efforts of the applicants to satisfy the terms of the previously mentioned letter
agreement, it is staffs suggestion that the City Council overrule the Planning
Commission's recommendation to revoke the original Use Permit No. 3321.

Back rg ound
At its meeting of August 18, 1988, the Planning Commission approved Use Permit No.
3321 with the findings and subject to the conditions of approval as indicated in the
attached excerpt of the Planning Commission minutes dated August 18, 1989. Subsequent
to the approval of said application, staff became aware that the commercial use was open
for business without complying with several conditions of approval of said use permit.
The Assistant Code Enforcement Officer informed the applicants that all conditions of
A4
TO: Planning Commission - 2.
approval must be met by December 8, 1988. Since no action was taken to resolve the
problem, the matter was referred to the City Attorney's Office. After several months of
attempting to work with the applicants, only a few of the conditions of approval of Use
Permit No. 3321 were met. At its meeting of June 22, 1989, the Planning Commission
voted unanimously to review Use Permit No. 3321 so as to consider recommending to
the City Council its revocation due to noncompliance with the following conditions of
approval:
1. That the proposed project shall be in substantial conformance with the
approved site plan and floor plans, except as noted below.
2. That the on -site vehicular and pedestrian circulation system be subject to
further review and approval by the City Traffic Engineer. Said parking
areas shall be appropriately striped in accordance with the approved
parking plan.
4. That the doors to the installation bays in the front and rear buildings shall
be designed in a manner so as to provide acceptable on -site circulation.
The design of said doors shall be subject to the approval of the City Traffic
Engineer.
5. That a minimum of 13 parking spaces shall be provided on -site except that
when West Coast Highway is widened only 12 on -site parking spaces shall
be required.
6. That all installation, window tinting and auto detailing activities shall be
conducted within a building. The alarm systems shall not be sounded in
the installation bay unless a mute device is installed in each case. That
all stereo music shall be confined to the interior of the building.
12. That the applicant shall install a system of containerized landscaping along
the building frontage adjacent to West Coast Highway. Said landscaping
shall be subject to the approval of the Planning Department and shall be
installed prior to the implementation of the use permit.
13. That one handicapped parking space shall be designated within the on -site
parking area and shall be .used solely for handicapped self parking. Said
parking space shall be accessible to the handicapped at all times and shall
be identified with a handicapped sign on a post.
14. That the applicant shall obtain the approval of the Coastal Commission

16. That all improvements be constructed as required by Ordinance and the

17. That arrangements be made with the Public Works Department in order
to guarantee satisfactory completion of the public improvements.
18. That a 6 foot wide sidewalk and drive apron be constructed and the existing
utility box raised to grade along the West Coast Highway frontage under
an encroachment permit issued by the California Department of
Transportation within 120 days of approval of the subject use permit unless
otherwise approved by the Public Works Department.
Said hearing was scheduled for August 10, 1989, which was subsequently continued to
October 5, 1989, so as to allow the applicants additional time to prepare plans for a
building addition which would allow for a more acceptable on -site parking design.
However,1he applicants failed to submit the new plans in sufficient time to allow staff
to review the proposed changes to the project. As a result, the Planning Commission
voted to recommend that the City Council revoke Use Permit No. 3321. Said action was
taken with the findings set forth in the attached excerpt of the Planning Commission
minutes dated October 5, 1989.
At its meetings of November 13, 1989, the City Council considered the Planning
Commission's recommendation to revoke Use Permit No. 3321. At that time, the City
Council voted to continue the matter to its meeting of November 27, 1989, so as to allow
additional time for staff to meet with the applicants, determine appropriate restrictions
on the business, and prepare an agreement that would allow the Council to revoke the
use permit in the event of noncompliance with the restrictions. Said restrictions are set
forth in the attached letter agreement signed by Nancy Clark. In accordance with
paragraph "H" of said agreement, Newport Sound Waves was required to submit an
application to amend Use Permit No. 3321 on or before December 8, 1989, and, upon
approval, diligently pursue compliance with all conditions imposed by the Planning
Commission on review or appeal. The application in question has been filed by the
applicants so as to comply with the above requirement.
It should also be noted that since the Planning Commission's review of the original
application, the applicant has complied with Conditions No. 12, 16, 17, and 18. The
applicants are seeking to amend Condition No. 5 in conjunction with the subject
application, and they are waiting for the outcome of this application before implementing
Conditions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 13, and 14. With regard to Condition No. 6 which requires that
all installation activities be done in a building, the City Council agreed to allow the
applicant to temporarily use outdoor areas between the two buildings and at the rear of
the back building for installation activities.
In conjunction with the original approval of Use Permit No. 3321, the subject business
included the sale and installation of automobile accessories in the existing 1;408± square
r(V
TO: Planning Commission - 4.
foot commercial building located on the front of the property. Said approval also
included the conversion of a two story residential building located at the rear of the
property so as to use the 630± square foot ground floor area for auto detailing and
window tinting and the 667± square foot second floor area for related offices and
storage. Based on the proposed uses of the two buildings which contain a total of
2,705± square feet, the total parking requirement based on one parking space for each
250 square feet was 11 spaces (2,705± sq.ft.= 250 sq.ft.= 10.82 or 11 spaces). The
original parking design submitted by the applicants was unacceptable to the City Traffic
Engineer. Therefore, staff worked with the applicants to develop a parking plan that
provided 12 parking spaces (excluding the parking space within the future widening area
of West Coast Highway). A parking plan that was acceptable to the applicants and the
City Traffic Engineer was developed and approved by the Planning Commission. A copy
of the current, approved parking plan is attached for the Planning Commission's
information.
Analysis ,
As indicated previously, the applicant is proposing to amend the number and location of
the off-street parking spaces required for the subject business as well as proposing to add
three additional installation bays. Two of the new bays will be located at the rear of the
front building where only one installation bay currently exists. Said addition will consist
of 456± square feet of floor area. The third installation bay will be located on the
ground floor of the rear building where only one bay currently exists and will involve a
48± square foot addition to said building. It should be noted that the subject business
is no longer involved in auto detailing and window tinting which were the activities
previously conducted on the ground floor of the rear building. Therefore, there will be
a total of five installation bays used in conjunction with the installation of electronic
accessories for automobiles. Said accessories include automobile security and alarm
systems, car phones and stereo sound systems.
Required Off -Street Parking
As indicated in the previo s Background Section, the parking requirement established in
conjunction with the approval of the original Use Permit No. 3321 was based on the
standard commercial parking formula of one parking space for each 250 square feet of
floor area. In calculating the parking requirement, staff used the total floor area of
both buildings and made no distinction between areas used for retail sales, offices and
storage from floor area used for installation activities. As mentioned previously, said
calculation resulted in a parking requirement of 11 parking spaces. However, in the
process of reevaluating the subject application, it is staffs opinion that inasmuch as the
installation activities are merely supportive of the retail sales activities, the installation
bays should not be included in the parking calculation. Based on this criteria, the total
floor area used in calculating the off-street parking requirement would be 2,077± square
feet which includes all of the retail area, display areas and storage areas in the front
TO: Planning Commission - 5.
building (1,408± square feet') and all of the second floor of the rear building which is
used for related offices and storage (667± square feet). Based on this square footage,
a total of 9 parking spaces would be required (2,075± sq.ft. _ 250 sq.ft. = 8.3 or 9
spaces). Although the above parking calculation seems reasonable, it should also be
noted that the applicants have indicated that there will a total of 8 employees on the
premises during peak hours of operation. Therefore, it would seem in this particular
case that 9 panting spaces would not be adequate inasmuch as only one parking space
would be available for customers and it is assumed that said parking space would be the
handicapped space inasmuch as there are no handicapped persons employed by the
applicants.
As provided on the attached site plan submitted by the applicants, 13 parking spaces are
proposed. However, 5 of the parking spaces shown are also to be used as installation
bays which will not be available for customer or employee parking. Therefore, said plan
provides only. 8 parking spaces, one of which will be for handicapped parking. Such a
panting proposal would be 1 space short of meeting the employee parking demand and
there would be no parking for customers.
In an effort to provide additional parking on -site, staff has suggested that two additional
parking spaces could be provided in the rear parking area by using a tandem
configuration as shown on the attached alternative parking plan. Such a proposal would
require that the handicapped parking space be moved so as to occupy one of the two
parallel spaces within the driveway. Two additional parking spaces could also be
provided in the area between the two buildings provided the area was fully paved.
Therefore, the alternative parking plan would provide 8 employee parking spaces and
4 customer parking spaces, one of which would be for handicapped parking. It should
also be noted that the parking spaces located in front of the building are within the
future widening area of West Coast Highway and will be removed at such time as the
highway is widened, thereby leaving only 3 parking spaces for customer parking.
Notwithstanding the design changes to the proposed parking, staff is concerned that the
amount of on -site parking provided will be insufficient to meet the parking demand of
the proposed use.
Specific Findings
Section 20.80.060 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code provides that in order to grant
any use permit, the Planning Commission shall find that the establishment, maintenance
or operation of the use or building applied for will not, under the circumstances of the
particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, and general
welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use or be

detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the
general welfare of the City.
Should the Planning Commission wish to approve Use Permit No. 3321 (Amended), the
findings and conditions of approval set forth in the attached Exhibit "A" are suggested.
Should the Planning Commission wish to deny this application, the findings set forth in
the attached Exhibit 'B" are suggested.

Mrs. Nancy Clark, owner of Newport Sound Waves, appeared
before the Planning Commission. Mrs. Clark requested a
continuance of the item to October 19, 1989, to allow the
Planning Commission additional time to review the submitted
revised plans. She explained that the parking plans have become
a problem inasmuch as the applicants have a desire to expand
the business, and the plans previously submitted were not
approved by staff.
In response to a question posed by Acting Chairman Debay
regarding the applicants not returning telephone calls, Mrs. Clark
explained that she received one telephone message too late to
return on Friday from Mr. Ward, Senior Planner. She explained
that she is not always available at the business and does not
receive messages from the employees.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Di Sano
regarding the letters to the applicants from staff stating that the
applicants have not complied with the conditions of approval,
Mrs. Clark explained that estimates have been received regarding
the driveway and the property owner has agreed to pay for one-
half of the expense. She stated that inasmuch as the parking plan
was not approved, the applicants could not stripe the parking
area; however, the paint and signs have been purchased.
Commissioner Edwards addressed the number of conditions that
the applicants have not complied with, not implemented or
maintained. Mr. Hewicker stated that as a result of the
problems that the applicants have had in submitting the new
plans, the applicants propose to request that the Planning
Commission amend some of the conditions previously imposed.
Mr. Hewicker stated that the applicants are not in compliance
with 11 conditions, and the reason is that the applicants are
attempting to find alternatives.
Commissioner Pers6n stated that at the August 18, 1988 Planning
Commission meeting, the applicant, Mrs. Clark, was present, and
agreed with Use Permit No. 3321, findings and conditions.

;ould not implement the use permit until the conditions have

the letter. Commissioner Pers6n stated that one condition that
was not implemented was that the applicant shall apply for and
obtain a Coastal Development Permit prior to occupancy and
authorization of the use permit, and Mrs. Clark agreed to said
condition. Commissioner Pers6n stated that one year and 14
days after the August 18, 1988, Planning Commission for meeting, Castal
September _2, 1989, the applicants applied
Development Permit, and he asked if the applicants had the
Permit now. Mrs. Clark replied no , that the applicants had
submitted the application twice and twice it had been returned
because it was incomplete. Commissioner Pers6n stated that
during the past 12 months the City advised the applicants that
they were violating Condition No. 6, installing, window tinting
and auto detailing outside of the building. Mrs. Clark replied
that they are no longer window tinting or auto detailing;
however, occasionally quick stereo installations have been done
outside. Commissioner Pers6n commented that maybe the size
of the facility is not adequate. Mrs. Clark agreed.
In response to COm. missioner Pers6n's statement regarding the

the event of noncompliance with the
restrictions. On November 27, 1989, the
City Council authorized the subject
agreement, and continued the public
hearing for the revocation of Use Permit
No. 3321 to its meeting of February 12,
1990. The restrictions of the agreement
are set forth in the letter agreement
signed by Nancy Clark and included as an
attachment to the Planning Commission
staff report, dated January 4, 1990. In
accordance with paragraph "H" of said
agreement, Newport Sound Waves was
required to submit an application to
amend Use Permit No. 3321 on or before
December 8, 1989, and upon approval,
diligently pursue compliance with all
conditions imposed by the Planning
Commission on review or appeal. The
Planning Commission, on January 4, 1990,
approved the amended use permit and
recommended its approval to the City

have overcome the problems they were
having in complying with the initial use
permit, and have indicated to staff they
intend to comply with all the Conditions
of Approval imposed with the amended use
permit.

Council, the public hearing was closed.
x Motion was made to overrule_the original
