Commissioner Merrill stepped down from the dais because
of a possible conflict of interest.
James Hewicker, Planning Director, referred to
Condition No. 4 regarding the required mid -week daytime
matinee parking spaces of one parking space for each
3.29 seats, and he stated that the staff has no
objections if the parking requirement would be changed
to one parking space for each 5 seats. Mr. Hewicker
explained that the requirement of one parking space for
each 5 seats was suggested in the proposed project's
Parking and Traffic Study. .
Donald Webb, City Engineer, referred to Condition No.
23, requesting "two additional stairways be constructed
between the upper and lower parking areas with loca-
tions to be approved by the Planning Department and the
Public works Department ". Mr. Webb further stated that
the applicant has indicated that The Irvine Company may
object to the construction of one of the stairways;
therefore, he proposed that Condition No. 23 be
modified to state "provided The Irvine Company will
allow the second stairway to be constructed ". Mr. Webb
explained that staff felt that as much access as
possible should be provided to the theatre parking area
from the lower parking area. He said that The Irvine
Company has. made arrangements with the applicant to
allow additional parking in the rear of the Design.
Plaza; however, they may object to a stairway adjacent
to the Good Earth Restaurant. Mr. Webb commented that

.wherein they would not be able to comply with the
condition. In response to a question posed by Chairman
Turner, Mr. Webb replied that the location of the
second stairway is not under the leasehold of the

Mr. Webb stated that the applicant must construct one
additional stairway and there appears to be no problem
with that request.
The public hearing was opened in connection with this
item, and Mr. James Edwards, representing the
applicant, appeared before the Planning Commission.
Mr. Edwards stated that the parking arrangement with
The Irvine Company for the additional 269 parking
spaces are at the easterly end of Design Plaza. He
said that there is one existing stairway and that they
have no objections to the request for two additional
stairways; however, he said that the stairway closest
to the theatre is back of the Good Earth Restaurant and
•
that is an area of which the theatre has no
jurisdiction. Mr. Edwards stated that the applicant
concurs with the findings and conditions in Exhibit "A"
including modified Conditions No. 4 and No. 23.

APPLICANT: Stevenson, Porto & Pierce, Inc., Irvine
OWNER: C & L Investments, Newport Beach
The public hearing was opened in connection with this
item, and Mr. Mike Porto, applicant, appeared before
the Planning Commission. Mr. Porto requested that the
Planning Commission approve Exhibit "B ", to allow the
facility to be open during the daytime as well as
during the evening hours. Mr. Porto explained that the
daytime use would be for retail purposes only to allow
the applicant to sell packaged foods. Mr. Porto stated
that the applicants concur with staff's recommendations
regarding a moveable barrier between the seating area
from the take -out counter.
In response to Chairman Turner, Mr. Hewicker explained
that staff's concerns are regarding the available
•
on -site parking spaces because after the existing
office space and commercial space is fully occupied
there will be an increased demand for parking on the
site, and he explained why it would be difficult for
staff to enforce the daytime operations so as to
restrict the facility to a take -out restaurant use with
no seating available to patrons.
In response to a concern posed by Commissioner
Kurlander, the Planning Commission and staff discussed
methods that could be imposed to ensure that the
approved conditions would be transmitted to new
ownership and how the approved conditions would be
enforced.
Mr.. Porto stated that the property owners have made a
substantial investment in the property improvements,
and that parking for the tenants and their customers is
important to the property owners. He said that the
applicant's lease is structured so that if the
applicant vacated the subject site then the property
would revert back to the property owners.
The public hearing was closed at this time.
Chairman Turner stated that he has a concern regarding
the enforceability and being able to keep control of

the property. Motion was made to approve Use Permit No.

Commissioner Kurlander commented that Exhibit "B" would
permit the applicant to open the facility during the
daytime as a take -out restaurant use and during the
evening as a sit -down restaurant, and he suggested that
the application could be reviewed in six months.
Chairman Turner reopened the public hearing, and Mr.
Stephen Cloobeck, 60 Cove Lane, appeared before the
Planning Commission on behalf of the applicants. In
response to a question posed by Chairman Turner
regarding the initial investment that the applicant
would be making, Mr. Cloobeck replied that the
applicants would not be making an additional investment
for equipment if the Planning Commission approved the
daytime and evening use with a review of the
application in .six months. The public hearing was
closed at this time.
Substitute motion was made to approve Use Permit No.
3238, subject to the alternate findings and conditions
of approval in Exhibit "B" including the additional
Condition No. 21 stating "that the application shall be
reviewed by the Modifications Committee in six months ".
Chairman Turner withdrew his original motion.
Commissioner Merrill commented that the facility could
be controlled during the daytime by limiting the number
of employees. Chairman Turner replied that the
Planning Commission should not get into a position to
try to dictate how many employees an employer should
have, and that the restriction would be difficult for
the City to enforce.
Commissioner Winburn reasoned that she would not
support the motion because of the difficulty to enforce
the daytime use.
Commissioner Eichenhofer reasoned that it is difficult
to condition restaurants located in critical problem
areas, and then at a later date the same restaurants
reappear requesting additional operational uses. She
pointed out that the subject location does not have a
critical parking' problem during the winter months;
however, during the summer months parking availability
is totally different. She said that she would support
the motion.

The public hearing was opened in connection with this

In response to a question posed by Commissioner
Kurlander concerning handicapped parking on -site, Mr.
Minney replied that the plot plan includes one
handicapped parking space.
Mr. Minney referred to Condition No. 11 in Exhibit "B"
requiring that a trash compactor be installed, and he
rebuked the recommendation because the restaurant has
had previous trash compactor accidents; that they have
an offensive odor; that they are difficult to clean;
and there was no previous requirement to install a
trash compactor. Mr. Minney explained that the
restaurant has notified Dewey Dumpster to pick up the
trash three times a week, and if the lunch hours are
approved, the service will be extended to six days a
week.
In reference to staff's recommendation of a recorded
off - site.parking agreement, Mr. Minney replied that the
property owner, Mr. John Jakosky, Jr., 2500 West Coast

agreement with the City as a third party, nor is Mr.
Jakosky, Jr. interested in having the lease recorded.
Mr. Minney said that he has discussed with the City
Attorney the possibility of filing a copy of the

Mr. Minney offered to write .a letter stating that if he
should lose the off -site parking, he would cease the
lunch operation.
In response to questions posed by Chairman Turner and
Commissioner Winburn regarding off -site parking
agreements, Mr. Hewicker replied that the off -site
parking agreement represents an understanding among the
three parties that there is a use, and that there is an
agreement with the City that parking will be provided,
and that the rules and regulations of the City will be
followed. Mr. Hewicker commented that the ruling
requiring that the off -site parking agreement be
recorded has been provided in the Municipal Code for
many years.
Mr. Hewicker commented that the Planning Commission has
previously permitted off -site parking to be provided on
an "informal basis "; however, he said that staff does
not want to see these types of agreements perpetuate.
•
In response to statements presented by Commissioner
Winburn regarding the Municipal parking lot, Don Webb,
City Engineer, replied that staff's previous
recommendations have been that with a few exceptions,
the parking spaces have not been sold in -lieu, and that
a plan has been implemented which would allow the
widening. of .West Coast Highway and the removal of
parking. He stated that the parking lot was
constructed to provide replacement parking for the
parking lost if West Coast Highway is widened, and
further, the Coastal Commission has indicated that any
parking spaces that are sold in -lieu to restaurants or
other uses, cannot be used for replacement parking. He
said that the Chart House Restaurant was granted
in -lieu parking spaces, and the China Palace Restaurant
was required to purchase parking permits rather than
paying in -lieu fees for 13 parking spaces.
In response to a question posed by Chairman Turner, Mr.
Minney replied, that he has a three year lease agreement
with Mr. Jakosky, Jr. and a ten year off -site parking
agreement with the Mariner's Mile Square property
owners for 26 parking spaces.

terminated. Mr. Minney stated that he would be
agreeable to in -lieu parking. Mr. Webb explained the
availability of the Municipal Parking Lot parking
spaces, and he' concurred that parking spaces are
available during the day; however, he said that he
would prefer that the off -site parking remain on
private property.
Mr. Hewicker opined that the staff would prefer that
the applicant proceed with the three year unrecorded
off -site parking agreement on private property then to
open the issue of using the Municipal parking lot.
Mr. Minney concurred with Mr. Hewicker's aforementioned
statement, and he added that he would prefer to
negotiate with a private individual then to get
involved with the City. He stated that the off -site
parking agreement would give him' considerable parking
during the daytime to accommodate his customers.
•
Mr. Minney referred to Condition No. 21 requesting
"that an easement be provided for traffic signal
detection ", and he asked for an explanation of the
condition. Mr. Webb replied that in conjunction with
Condition No. 23 requesting "that the applicant install
traffic signal equipment to Caltrans standards ", there
is a situation wherein an automobile coming out of two
driveways currently has no traffic signal visible other
than a pedestrian crosswalk. Mr. Webb explained how
there are currently two driveways side by side which
could create a situation where two automobiles could be
leaving the premises simultaneously, and he described
how staff has tried to resolve the problem. In
reference to Condition No. 22 requesting "that the
property line fence be removed ", Mr. Webb explained
that this would allow for only one driveway.
In reference to Condition No. 22, requesting that the
property line fence be removed, Mr. Minney emphatically
stated that the adjacent property owner, Mr. Pederson,
will not remove the subject fence. Mr. Webb replied
that staff could work something out if the fence were
not removed; however, he expressed his willingness to
meet with Mr. Pederson in order to come up with some
sort of a solution.
Mr. Hank Hill, 2431 West Coast Highway, appeared before
the Planning Commission in support of Mr. Minney's
proposal, and he emphatically stated that if Mr.

line fence, then he will not.
