his memo of September 29, 1975, the minutes
of the regular meeting of September 18, 1975
were approved as written with the revision
that for clarification purposes, the wording
of the motion for Modification No. 939 be
changed to read as follows:
"Motion was made that the Planning Commission
deny the appeal of Modification No. 939,
and uphold the decision of the Modifications
Committee and make the following findings:
1. There are special circumstances
applying to the parcel which do not exist
for similar residential parcels in Big
Canyon. The long dimension of the parcel
is parallel to Big Canyon Drive, leaving
the minor dimension of the site available
for building purposes perpendicular to
Big Canyon Drive. Should the 20 -foot
setback be strictly applied, the flexi-
bility of architectural design necessary
to achieve a reasonable development of
the site would be unduly restricted.
2. A principal purpose of the 20 -foot
setback along Big Canyon Drive is to
enable the maintenance of an open feeling

along the street; however, the zoning
regulations also permit the construction
of 8 -foot high fences within the setback
area, and 2 -story dwelling units are
permitted. By applying appropriate
conditions of approval to the Modification
.(restricting fence construction), the
open feeling along Big Canyon Drive can
be maintained, the development of the
site will be consistent with the
original intent of the zoning regulations,
and the development as a whole will not
be detrimental to the neighborhood.
3. That although an error did occur._
in issuing the building permit, the
Modification will be appropriate and well
within the exact language of the
Ordinances set forth in Chapter 20.47
of the Newport Beach Municipal Code.
4. That a greater attempt has been
made to preserve a sense of openness along
•
that portion of Big Canyon Drive than
other properties which have a greater
height and maintain a fence along the
property line thereby creating more of
a "corridor" effect.
5. The Community Association maintains
guides and regulations as to the exterior
color which could be used, which will,
therefore, reduce the visual impact
of the structure to be built.
6. That the establishment and
maintenance of the building would not,
under the circumstances of this
particular case, be detrimental to
the health, safety, peace, comfort and
general welfare of persons residing or
working in the neighborhood or be
detrimental or injurious to property
and improvements in the neighborhood
or the general welfare of the City, and
the Modification is consistent with the
respective interest of Title 20 of the
Newport Beach Municipal Code.
and approve Modification No. 939 subject to
the following conditions (deleting therefrom
Condition No. 4 as imposed by the Modifications
Committee):

1. That development shall be in
substantial conformance with the approved
plot plan, elevations and model display
i
at the Planning Commission meeting.
2. That no additional walls or fences
shall be constructed within. the 20 -foot
setback adjacent to Big Canyon Drive
other than those walls indicated on the
approved plot plan.
3. The height of the structure shall
not exceed the approved elevations."
Commissioner Heather abstained from voting on
this matter as she was absent from the
September 18, 1975 meeting and Commissioner Agee
abstained as he did not have an opportunity to

out that this is, in the opinion of staff, a.

marginal proposal in that it has both assets
and liabilities. The major asset being that
this is a new development in an area that needs
much refurbishing and this new development,
along with the other proposals that have been
made in that area, should encourage this
refurbishing and help it to be accomplished.
He advised that on the other hand, the use
itself is a major use of a relatively small
piece of property. Traffic access is extremely
difficult and parking, in the opinion of staff,
will not be adequate on the property itself.
and, consequently, in order to take care of
the parking needs, the parking will have to
be provided off site by the utilization of
the existing public parking in that area and the
buying of parking permits. Community Development
Director Hogan then advised that the property
can, in accordance with the zoning district,
be used for other purposes without requiring
a use permit and would have the same problem
with parking for those other purposes and the
ordinances very clearly provide that it's.
•
acceptable to acquire parking permits for the
use of the public lots. However, parking surveys
that have been conducted.in that area indicate
that there is a shortage of parking so the
question here is one of weighing the merits
and demerits of this application.
In response to a question by the Planning
Commission as to whether this structure is a
hotel or motel, Community Development Director
Hogan advised that the parking requirements
are those that would comply with a motel. The
reason for this being that the hotel requirements
as set forth in the ordinance, when originally
designed, were designed to take into consideration
a full - fledged hotel showing all the hotel
attributes, i.e., it would contain shops,
restaurants, meeting rooms, etc. Each of these
would require parking in addition to the rental
rooms parking requirement and, consequently,
there would be joint usage of that parking
which would reduce the parking required for
individual rooms. He then advised that this
is not true in this particular instance in
that they do not have any additional facilities
•
to go along with the rooms and, consequently,
staff believes the parking provisions should
be those that would comply with a motel.

Public hearing was opened in connection with
this item and Richard L. Lawrence, 505 29th
Street, Newport Beach appeared before the
Planning Commission and stated that he would
like to call this a hotel because it is an annex
to a 9 -room hotel that was approved last year.
He advised that this is the most unimproved
alley in Newport Beach and felt that when this
goes to the Coastal Commission, they will look
favorably on it because they want the people
inland to be able to come and enjoy this part
of Newport Beach. He advised that although
there are hotels around the Newport Center area,
there are none around the Dory Fleet and the
Pier. He stated that the hotel rooms he is .
proposing are small and could never be used for
anything other than hotel rooms. He advised
that as of August 1, 1975 he bought out his
partner totally and is in control of everything
.
he is doing there. He is presently in the
process of refurbishing the Alley West restaurant
and this refurbishing will be done between now
and Christmas and from there he is waiting for
hopeful approval of this request and then will
go to the Coastal Commission with his Alley.
West building and proposed mall and take it as
one package. He advised that he is... looking
into a street lighting district, removing any
unsightly signs and repaving all alleys adjacent
to this property. He stated that he has talked
to almost everyone of the adjacent property owners
and they were all cooperative and in favor of
renewal of the area. Mr. Lawrence felt that this
proposal will get a good start on a two- block
City area. He advised that he has Planning
Commission approval of one City block but wants
!
to have a package deal with the Coastal
Commission. He then commented on Condition No. 7
of the staff report which reads as follows:
"7. That the alley system between - Balboa
Boulevard and 22nd Street shall be
improved for its full width by the
applicant or thru an alley improve-
ment district prior to the approval
of the occupancy permit of the motel
facility."
Mr. Lawrence felt that paving the alley would
take too long. He advised that the architecture
of the new building will look like the old part
of Newport Beach but will be a brand new building.
He stated that he has room for five cars and an

eight -foot aisle to get through and that his
idea is to go in one way and out the other. He
advised that along with the proposal, they are
going to have a parking area for over 30 bicycles.
He advised that bicycles are a mode of transpor-
tation in Newport Beach and especially in that
area and felt the bicycle racks will encourage
people to ride and lock up their bikes. He
then discussed his plan to use hardly any signs
and to put white light bulbs around the
perimeter of the roof lines around the Alley West
building and the annex hotel as is done on the
Pavillion and Reuben E. Lee. He felt this
would blend in with the area. Mr. Lawrence
did not feel his parking p.roblem is so serious
it can't be allowed.
In response to Commissioner Parker's comment
that if this is a success, it will cause a
lot of traffic in the area, Mr. Lawrence
replied that the area is crowded now with
surfers, so if you clean up an area like this,
the neighborhood and some of the blighted areas
will be upgraded. He advised that traffic will
be a problem anyway with the Newport Pier and
Dory- Fleet. He did not feel there will ever
be an end to the traffic problem and stated
that the Coastal Commission wants inlanders
to be able to come to Newport Beach.
John Shea, 2214 West Ocean Front, Newport
Beach, appeared before the Planning Commission
and advised that he has mixed emotions regarding
this proposal. He spoke in favor of a
Specific Area Plan being completed in this
area and advised that this proposal may or may
not fit into the Specific Area Plan but felt
that once building starts, a lot of options are
removed. He then discussed the lack of parking
in the area and advised that this shortage
lasts until the early hours of the morning
and spoke in favor of the applicant providing
more parking. He stated that Mr. Lawrence
originally purchased this property for use as
a parking lot and felt that this would be the
best use of the property. Mr. Shea stated
that there is a lot of property in this area
in the same
position and felt that if the
Planning Commission approves this request, there
may be others desiring to do the same thing.

There being no others desiring to appear and
be heard, the public hearing was closed.
Chairman Beckley advised that he tried the
circulation plan referenced by staff, i.e.,
drove in from Balboa Boulevard and attempted
to simulate coming out of the existing space
and was able to make that alright, but the
right -hand turn at the head of the alley really
couldn't be negotiated without one reversal
to back up and get another turn at it. Chairman
Beckley then advised that he does not believe
the traffic plan will work within the existing
right -of -way that is there. He then added
that this was done with a small -size automobile
rather than a full -size automobile.
Commissioner Agee advised that he liked and
voted for Mr. Lawrence's upgrading of the
original block and hopes to see it move forward;
however, as far as this specific application is
•
concerned, he felt that it is an intensification
of the use of the He
area. advised.that he
did not see that just because the Planning
Commission approved an existing use with nine
rooms, it's a justification to go ahead and
approve an annex. He then agreed with Mr. Shea's
point that if Mr. Lawrence's request is approved,
others may request the same type of,thing.

Motion that Use Permit No. 1767 be denied.
Chairman Beckley commented on "Alternate Uses
of the Site" No. 3 as stated in the staff
report which reads as follows:
"3. In combination with adjoining parcels
that could be acquired at a later date."
Chairman Beckley felt that by combining the
property with parcels to the immediate south,
potential exists for creating traffic
circulation internally and this arrangement
would have some merit.
Commissioner Seely advised that he does like
what Mr. Lawrence has in mind and would like to

Community Development Director Hogan advised
that staff has requested in a memorandum that .
Item #3 be reset for public hearing and
renoticed for the November 6, 1975 Planning
Commission meeting. The reason for this request
is that the staff is doing some additional
research as related to traffic and parking and
they want to incorporate that research in
their recommendations. Mr. Hogan advised that
staff wants to do that in time to be able to
distribute the written report to the
Commission and also to the interested citizens
who have been here and have indicated their
interest in the proposal. Mr. Hogan also
advised that staff wants to.correct a notice
procedure in that the notices for this
particular hearing were posted two days later
than our normal practice; this is not a
required posting but has been a practice
that has been followed and staff wants to make
sure the notices -are posted '`full 10 days prior
to the hearing date. Mr. Hogan stated that.as

a consequence of both of these, staff has
recommended that this matter be reset for

Commissioner Seely voiced disappointment that
this matter does appear to have to be
continued. He advised that it had been
publicized that this matter would come before
the Planning Commission and that they have
received a great deal of correspondence concerning
this matter. Commissioner Seely then discussed
the possibility of adopting a Specific Plan

for the periods of time they are at

the members will use this parking facility
because they realize it is a condition in the
granting of this request. He then concurred
with the staff conditions as specified in the
staff report.
Amelia Lockey, member of the Property Committee
for the Expansion of the Assistance League,
appeared before the Planning Commission and
stated that all members of the Assistance
League have keys to the gate of the parking
facility so that each member can use the facility
at any time. She then advised that at the
last meeting of the Assistance League, the
gate was left unlocked so members would not
have to unlock the gate. Following arrival of
the members, the gate was relocked.
In response to a question by the Planning
Commission as to whether the Assistance League
•
has any plans to move from the property in the
future, Ms. Lockey advised that the Assistance
League has no such plans and that this property
was purchased with the idea in mind of expanding
the facility to make full utilization of the
property.
There being no others desiring to appear and be
heard, the public hearing was closed.
Motion
Following discussion as to whether the parking
requirement would accompany this property
if it were to be sold, motion was made that
Planning Commission make the following findings:
1. The proposed development is consistent with
the General Plan, and is compatible with the
surrounding land uses.
2. A waiver of 27 of the required parking spaces
is justifiable for the following reasons:
a. The Assistance League complex is a unique
operation with peak usage occuring
approximately 6 times per month.
•
b. That adequate on -site parking exists and
on- street parking is available nearby
to accommodate the day -to -day operation
of the facility.
c. That adequate additional parking is being
provided off -site to accommodate peak
usage. Page 12

this were any other enterprise, he would be voting
against the application. He did not feel this off
site parking site could meet the requirement that
it be located so as to be useful in connection wit
