ADDING SECTION 3295 TO

OF TRAFFF'IC
- - --
The City Council of the Citv
of NreyN oart Beach does ordain
,
as follows:
SECTION 1: Section 32M is
cif
added to the Newport Beach
Nd
MinocinAl Code to read:'
- ^SECTION 3295. Vehieu-
r
UI!
lar Arrns� to Balboa Island
Restricted. la, Findings of
j5
I
Fact. I
The City Council.finds that:
1. Baibna Island is an
island in Newport Bay with
an area of approximately
130 acres. Said island is
subdivided - into . .approxi.
mately 1500 separate par-
cels. Park and Marine Ave.
nues axe the widest streets
on Balboa Island, with ap-
proximately 40. ft. of paved
roadway. The remainder of
the streets have approxi.
merely 28 ft. of paved
roadway. The roadway
widths permit only one lane
V travel in each direction
and are sufficiently narrow
as to impair travel and
parking. It has become nec-
essary to restrict travel to
one direction only on many
of the streets. The alley
width of the perimeter alley
is 15 ft Because of exten-
sive pedestrihn t-ra.vel, no
general vehicular traffic is
permitted on said perimeter
alley. All other- alleys on
Balboa Island are only 10
ft. in width. -
2. Almost every parcel of
property on Balboa Island
is occupied by single or
multiple. residential build -
ings'or. by business build -
ings.
3. There i.s extremely
dense residential occupancy
during the school Spring
vacations or 'Easter Week',
and during the entire Sum-
mer season. People gather
in large numbers for social
and recreational activities
during Faster. Week, during.
the entire Summer season
and on weekends and spe-
cial occasions during other
periods.
. 4. Access to' and exit
from Balboa Island by mo-
tor vehicle is limited to
Marine Avenue, which cross-
es a bridge over an arm of
Newport Bap, and by a fer-
iy across Newport Bay
from Balboa. Said bridge is
I vvida enmigh fnr one lane of
sutmmw one ,ino,, ^aoh
d,lectinu. -Sail r• Lan
rltsoharg. and I o a d nniv
t h,ee (3) autoni "bite; : =t one
time.
5. There are no improved
publin parking lots on the
island.
6. Most romme oiil and
many residential premises
db not have off- street park-
ing facilities for metal* ve-
hicles
T. Many of the. buildings
on the island are of wood
construction and have wood
siding and wooden shingles
on the roof. Most of the
buildings are built rinse to
the lot lines. These cnndi-
tions result in mama wooden
s t r it c t nr e s being closely
grouped together. During
Spring vacation and during
the Summer, all such build-
ings are densely ecenpied
by ve,cstienera. Recause of
the mature of constructinn
and the close gimping of
said buildings, a. fire in one
could quickh. spread to ad-
joining buildings.
8. During the Spring
school vACatinn, during the
entire Summer season and
on weekends and other Ape -
cial occasions, great num-
bers of motor ehi,-l" are
driven onto the island by
nonresident v i s i t o r s for
which neither nn- street nor
off - street parking facilities
are available. At all hours
of the day and night during
these times, such vehicles
Are driven A,tmlessh' around
the island on the streets
and alleys. Many of them
are parked for varying pe-
rinds of time on the travel-
ed portion of the streets
and alleys. Snme are left
unattended. The result is
that all of the streets anti
alleys on the Island are so
congested with vehicles that
vehicular traffic is stalled
for 'long period, of time.
t1rivers on the island find 'I-,
impossible to drive off, rb'i-
vers off the island cannot
drive onto the island. emet-
gency vehicles including po-
lice automobiles, fire trucks,
lifer vehicles and Am-
bulances have been d' - +vrd
