Agenda Items No. 1 and 2 were heard concurrently due to
their relationship.
Planning Director Hewicker presented background
information on these items. He stated that the
applicant has submitted a new parking diagram, which
the staff has not had ample opportunity to review.
The public hearing opened in connection with these
items and Mr. Dick Hogan, representing the applicant,
• appeared before the Commission. Mr. Hogan stated that
the new parking plan only relates to the provision of
tandem parking. He stated that the City Traffic
Engineer and Mr. Don Webb, the City Engineer, have had
an opportunity to review the design of the new parking
plan.
Mr. Michael Callie, President of Magic Island, appeared
before the Commission and described the requested
proposal. He stated that they are requesting to build -
out the space next to the upstairs dining room into a
major showroom. He stated that the downstairs showroom
is not large enough because of the ceiling height
limitation. He stated that they are also requesting to
be open during the daytime for bus tours. He stated
that they are deleting their request to be open during
the daytime on the weekdays for banquets and private
parties. He further stated that they are requesting to
be open on Saturday afternoon for banquets and private
parties.
Commissioner Balalis asked Mr. Callie to describe the
employee parking. Mr. Callie stated that all of the
daytime employees would be parking in the Imperial
Savings - City National Bank parking lot, located at
the southeasterly corner of 32nd Street and Villa Way,
which has ample parking spaces. He stated that 14

parking spaces would be needed for the daytime
employees. Commissioner Balalis expressed his concern
that the 32nd Street lot is three blocks away from the
subject use and that it will be difficult to police
where the employees will park. Mr. Callie stated that
this provision would be enforced.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis; Mr. Callie stated that the nighttime employees
park on the fourth floor of the Lido Marina Village
parking structure. Mr. Callie stated that there has
never been a parking problem in the parking structure
during the evening hours.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Balalis, Planning Director Hewicker stated that many
people would rather park in the free areas and the
low - priced metered areas, than in the parking structure
where there is a charge. Mr. Hogan stated that Mr.
Callie has no control as to where the employees of
• other businesses and other users of.Lido Marina Village
park.
Mr. Don McKay, representing the ownership of Lido
Marina Village, appeared before the Commission. Mr.
McKay stated that the requested proposal will be an
extreme benefit to the merchants of Lido Marina Village
and surrounding stores. He stated that the conditions
of the Bank of America have been satisfied by written
agreement and will be recorded. He also stated that
Mr. Ed Warmington no longer has any objections to this
request if the conditions of approval as described in
the staff report are accepted by the applicant.
Mr. McKay added that the success of the center is
largely dependent upon the success of Magic Island. He
stated that they will adhere to the requirement that
all of Magic Island's employees park in the designated
32nd Street lot during the day.
Commissioner Allen stated that the vitality of the
center, without the influx of cars, would be beneficial
to the area. She asked how the merchants and the
tenants of the center provide for their employee
parking. Mr. McKay stated that Ms. Susie Zaun, Project
Manager for Lido Marina Village, could explain the
parking arrangements. He stated that all of Magic
Island's parking will be .validated or valet parked.

Commissioner Balalis stated that he is concerned with
the vitality of the center, but also stated that he is
concerned with the total parking situation for the
center. He stated that the question is how to solve
the parking problem that would make the center viable
and would not create an undue hardship to the other
merchants in the area. He stated that there are many
alternatives which can be considered.
Mr. McKay stated that he has received no complaints
relating to this application. He stated that a
petition in favor of this application, has been signed
from most all of the merchants and restaurants in Lido
Marina Village.
Ms. Susie Zaun, Project Manager for Lido Marina
Village, explained to the Commission the various
parking arrangements which are utilized in the parking
• structure. She stated that they also have provided for
over 123 free parking stickers for employees.
Commissioner Allen expressed her concern that almost
one -half of the employees do not park in the parking
structure. Ms. Zaun stated that the restaurants do not
provide free parking for all of their employees. She
stated that it is up to the merchant to distribute the
free parking stickers that have been issued.
Commissioner Allen stated that the parking statistics
show enormous parking deficiencies. She stated that
the objective should be to get the parking into the
parking structure. Ms. Zaun stated that she has not
received any complaints relating to the employee
and tenant parking. She stated that the free parking
stickers were distributed in order to get more people
to park in the parking structure.
In response to questions posed by Commissioner Balalis,
Ms. Zaun explained the validation procedure which is
utilized by the merchants. She stated that the parking
structure can not be offered free of charge because of
the costs for maintenance and that during the summer
months, people would park in the structure for the
entire day while visiting the beach.

Mr. Dick Hogan distributed copies of the proposed
parking plan to the Commission. He explained the
calculations of the available and required parking and
stated that the parking structure needs to be
restriped, regardless of this application. He stated
that the parking deficiency has occurred because of the
14 parking spaces which will be lost when Newport
Boulevard is widened, and the City is now requiring
Lido. Marina Village to provide 50 spaces for the Bank
of America and 24 spaces for the Lido shops as provided
in existing off -site parking agreements.
Mr. Hogan stated that the restriping of the parking
structure would provide for 103 compact parking spaces,
286 regular daytime parking spaces, and 26 spaces for
the Bay Lido Building and Grand Prix Boutique. He
stated that there would be a total of 415 available
parking spaces in the daytime. He stated that the
nighttime parking would allow for 39 tandem parking
spaces. He stated that Mr. Rich Edmonston, City
Traffic Engineer, has indicated that this would not be
a problem.
Mr. Webb, City Engineer, stated that Mr. Edmonston had
indicated that an adequate method informing the users
of the parking structure would have to be established,
as to where the valet begins, and the non -valet use
ends. He stated that method would have to be developed
and approved by the City Traffic Engineer. Mr. Hogan
stated that they are agreeable to such a requirement.
Mr. Hogan stated that the 39 tandem parking spaces
would only be utilized when the valet service is on
duty.
Planning Director Hewicker referred to the last
paragraph on Page 3 of the February 4, 1982 staff
report and stated that the footnote should read "268 ",
rather than "368 ", in conjunction with the total number
of proposed compact spaces in the parking structure.
Mr. Hogan referred to the percentages relating to the
total number of parking spaces in the structure and
stated that the total required parking, as required by
the City, would be provided for the use of this
facility in the evening. He stated that this includes
the compact parking spaces, plus the tandem spaces with
valet parking.

Commissioner Allen asked how the tandem parking on the
third level, rather than the fourth level, will improve
the parking requirement. Mr. Hogan stated that the
tandem parking will start on the top level and work
down to a portion of the third level.
Mr. Bill Darnell, of Basmaciyan- Darnell, Inc., stated
that he had prepared the parking study which was
submitted by the applicant. He explained that the
parking structure is built on a spiral and is difficult
to identify by levels. He described the current
parking plan. of the structure and the proposed parking
plan which will include compact and tandem parking
spaces.
Commissioner Allen expressed her concern that an
employee who parks on the fourth level, may get trapped
by the valet tandem parking in the evening. She also
expressed her concern that a car parked in a regular
• parking space during the daytime may find it difficult
to back out when the tandem parking is in effect during
the evening. Mr. Darnell stated that a program will be
set up to control the use of the valet parking.
Commissioner Balalis asked Mr. Darnell if he is aware
of any recent studies which relate to the percentage of
compact cars versus standard cars in a parking
structure. Mr. Darnell stated that compact cars
account for 35 to 50 percent of the cars. He stated
that new car sales are in excess of 50 percent.
Commissioner Balalis suggested that perhaps a greater
percentage of compact spaces should be approved, rather
than approving the use of tandem spaces. Mr. Darnell
stated that he would not like to commit to a higher
percentage of compact spaces at this time, because it
takes the conversion of approximately eight full size
spaces to make one compact space.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek,
Mr. Darnell stated that a full size parking space is
8� feet wide and a compact parking space is 7� feet
wide.

Mr. Hogan stated that the proposed parking plan
provides for the total parking requirement and ratios
as set forth.by the City. He stated that they can
redesign the plan to provide for a higher percentage of
compact parking spaces.
Commissioner King stated that he would not be favor of
more compact spaces, because his car doors already have
enough dents in them. He further stated that one out
of eighteen families in the City of Newport Beach owns
a Mercedes or a Ferrari. He stated that considering
these factors, a high percentage of compact car spaces
would not be favorable.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner King,
Mr. Hogan stated that four handicapped parking spaces
will be provided on the ground floor.
Mr. Hogan stated that only an additional eleven parking
spaces are required over current parking requirements
• for the expanded facility at night.
Mr. Hogan stated that the daytime 'bus tour proposal
will not generate any traffic or parking difficulties.
He stated that the only parking which would be required
for this use would be 14 parking spaces for the
employees. He stated that these 14 parking spaces are
currently available in the 32nd Street parking lot, or
with the approval of the variance request to reduce the
amount of required parking, the parking spaces could be
provided in the parking structure. He stated that
approval of this request would be beneficial to all of
the merchants in the area.
In. response to a question posed by Commissioner King,
Mr. Darnell referred to Table 1 of the parking study
and summarized the percentages-of office, retail, and
restaurant uses in the study area. .
Mr. Doug Dryer, owner of the commercial building
located at 3416 Via Lido, appeared before the
Commission. Mr. Dryer explained the distinction
between the Lido Shops area and the Lido Marina Village
area. He stated that the Lido Shops area encompasses
the 23 businesses located along the north side of Via
Lido from the Bank of America to the Ports of Call
• 1 1 1 1 1 I I I facility. He stated that the documentation submitted,
-7-
CALL

does not take into account the parking requirements for
the Lido Shops area, other than the original 24 parking
spaces. He stated that according to his calculations,
an additional 94 parking spaces would have to be
provided to meet these requirements.
Mr. Dryer stated that the parking structure is never
full, except during the week of the boat show. He
stated that the Lido Shops and the Lido Marina Village
businesses suffer because people do not like to park in
the parking structure because it is narrow and
confining. He stated that restriping of the structure
will only compound this problem. He stated that many
of the older patrons drive big cars and complain about
the dark interior of the parking structure, the low
ceilings and narrow corners in the structure.
Commissioner Allen asked Mr. Dryer if the merchants of
the Lido Shops were opposed to the request for the tour
buses. Mr. Dryer stated that the problem with the tour
buses in the past, is that they have attempted to park
these big buses in the private .alley on the back side
of the Lido Shops area. He stated that a controlled
plan, for the tour buses to park elsewhere may be
acceptable. He also stated that many of the patrons of
the Lido Marina Village businesses, park on the street
or in the tow away zone, rather than in the parking
structure.
Commissioner Balalis questioned, that if an attendant
were to park all of the cars in the Lido Village
parking structure for the patrons, would the merchants
of the Lido Shops be willing to share in this expense.
Mr. Dryer stated that many'of the patrons would not
want the inconvenience of an attendant parking their
car. He stated that many of the Lido Shops merchants
would be opposed to a charge for this type of service.
Commissioner Balalis asked Mr. Dryer if the merchants
would be in favor of the service if it were free of
charge. Mr. Dryer stated that this may be acceptable.
Chairman McLaughlin stated that a free service of this
nature may not be in the best interest of the
customers.

Planning Director Hewicker stated that the calculations
in the staff report did include 74 spaces for the Bank
of America and the Lido Shops. Mr. Dryer stated that
as he understands, 50 parking spaces are being provided
for the Bank of America, which only leaves 24 parking
spaces to be utilized by all of the Lido Shops.
Planning Director Hewicker stated that there are legal,
nonconforming uses relating to the parking, such as the
daytime use for the Warehouse Restaurant.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Beek,
Mr. Dryer stated that the majority of the merchants in
this area purchase validated parking, so that their
customers can be provided with validated parking. He
stated that the validation costs the merchant
approximately 12 cents per half -hour.
Mr. Darnell referred to Table 3, the employee parking,
of the parking study and stated that this includes all
employees within the study boundary, not just the
employees of Lido Marina Village.
*ion X Motion was made for denial of Variance Mo. 1088, in
that the parking is a major problem in the area.
Commissioner Beek suggested that this matter needs to
be studied further, rather than denied at this time.
Substitute Substitute Motion was made for approval of the bus
Motion g tours portion of the request, and the remainder of the
request be postponed in order to give the applicant and
the management of the parking structure time to develop
a comprehensive plan which will solve the parking
problem for the merchants of the area, along with
solving the tandem and valet parking problems.
Chairman McLaughlin noted that the bus tour proposal
was unacceptable to the residents of Harbor View Hills
when it was proposed for Roger's Gardens and that the
Lido Isle Community Association should be notified
about the requested bus tour proposal in this area.
Commissioner Balalis stated that the bus tour proposal
for Roger's Gardens was denied because the buses were
stopped immediately adjacent to a residential area,
whereas this request is in a commercial area. He

suggested that the applicant enter into an agreement
with Cal -Trans for the lot on West Coast Highway to
park the buses.
Commissioner Allen concurred with the comments of
Commissioner Balalis and stated that she has always
been in favor of a shuttle system which would work in
this area. She stated that she can understand the
concerns expressed by Chairman McLaughlin relating to
the residential area, but stated that the people on the
tour buses will probably not walk to Lido Isle, which
is over a mile away.
Commissioner Allen suggested that the bus tours be
approved for a limited amount of time and approve the
off -site parking agreement for the additional 14
employee parking spaces. She stated that in granting
this approval for a limited amount of time, the
Commission can determine if the people will be creating
a problem in the residential area, if the employees are
parking in the off -site parking location and give Lido
Marina village a chance to work with the Lido Shops in
developing a management parking plan for the parking
structure. She stated that when the applicant brings
back the expansion request, the Commission can then
determine if the plan will work.
Commissioner Winburn asked how long the trial basis
will be for the bus tours. Chairman McLaughlin stated
that this trial basis will last until the application
is brought back before the Commission.
Chairman McLaughlin stated that approval of the bus
tour proposal will not be in the best interest of the
residents of Lido Isle.
Commissioner Beek stated that he is skeptical that the
employees of this use will park in the 32nd Street lot.
Commissioner Allen stated that as this application is
monitored, the Commission will then be able to
determine if the employees. are parking in the approved
location.

Commissioner Balalis stated that this approval allows
the applicant, the merchants in the area, and the
management company of the parking structure to develop_

shall record a Covenant, the form and content of which
is acceptable to the City Attorney, binding the
applicant and successors in interest in perpetuity to a
gross floor area limitation of .56 times the buildable
area for the subject property."
The public hearing opened in connection with these
items and Mr. Jim Van Tuyle,. representing Heritage
Bank, appeared before the Commission and requested
approval of these items. He stated that they will
cooperate with the City Traffic Engineer in the design
of the parking structure.
Mr. Ross Mollard stated that he is a principal of the
UBC Medical Corporation which proposes to construct a
25,000 square foot medical office condominium on the
.property immediately to the north of the proposed
project. He stated that approval for his project has
already been granted by the Planning Commission and
construction should start within two months.
Mr. Mollard stated that the applicant's proposed
project will be an excellent addition to the area, but
expressed concern with the parking structure wall"
which is solid concrete and the landscape treatment
which will be utilized in the three foot strip. He
stated that the applicant's landscape plan should be
compatible with his plan. Mr. Mollard also expressed a
concern relating to the parking requirement and the use
of the building. He stated that an additional
condition should be included which would preclude
medical uses, or in the event of medical uses, the
applicant would have to substantially amend the use
permit to accommodate the additional parking
requirements.
Mr. Rod Crane, Property Manager for Heritage Bank,
stated that parking structure will be set back three
feet to allow for the landscaping which will compliment

Mr. Van Tuyle stated that the spaces in the top two
floors of the. building will be for lease, but that
specific uses for these spaces have not been designated
as yet. He stated that a heavy medical use of the
building would be precluded because of the plumbing and
x -ray features that would be required. He stated that
they would be willing to work with staff to add the
three parking spaces if Heritage Bank decided to
lease to the medical profession.
Planning Director Hewicker stated that the Traffic
Study prepared for the project was based upon an office
building use, not a medical office building which
contains substantially higher traffic characteristics.
Commissioner King suggested that an additional
condition be placed upon the project which would
exclude any medical related tenancy which would cause
the traffic study to be invalidated. He stated that
the traffic study would have.to be changed if medical
• related uses were to be allowed. Mr. Crane stated that
this would limit the potential number of businesses
which could lease spaces in the building. Mr. Crane
stated that they would be agreeable to a condition
which states that the traffic study would have to be
updated if medical uses were to be allowed at a later
date.
Mr. Bob Burnham, Assistant City Attorney, suggested
that an additional finding be added to the approval of
the Traffic Study which would state that medical
related uses of the building will require a revision of
the Traffic Study.

2. That the Traffic Study indicates that the
project - generated traffic will neither cause nor
make worse an unsatisfactory level of traffic on
any 'major', 'primary- modified', or 'primary!
street.
3. That the Traffic Study prepared for the project
was based upon an office building use and does not
analyze the impacts of medical related uses. In
the event medical related uses were to be proposed
for the project, a revision to the Traffic Study
would be required.
CONDITIONS:
1. That prior to the occupancy of the proposed
project, the applicant shall contribute his fair
share as determined by the City to the planned
circulation system improvements at the Balboa
• Boulevard, West Coast Highway and Superior Avenue
intersection, and further, that these improvements
shall have been completed unless subsequent project
approvals required additional improvements at this
intersection.
2. That if the applicant wishes to occupy the proposed
development prior to the completion of the
"improvements described in Condition No. 1 above,,
the applicant shall demonstrate to the satisfaction
of the Planning Department and Public Works
Department that they have implemented trip
generation reduction measures or measures equally
effective approved by the City Traffic Engineer.
These measures shall remain in effect until the
improvements described in Condition No. 1 above
have been completed.
Commissioner Beek stated that he would be voting
against an approval of the use permit, because he can
not make the findings that, the increased building
height will result in a more desirable architectural
treatment of the building and that it will result in
more public visual open space than is required.
