Project Description
The project involves the creation of a single family dwelling and an attached 4 -car
tandem garage by altering an existing duplex building that was built without permits to
the rear of an existing single family home. The applicant provided a justification
statement (Attachment PC 2) and plans (Attachment PC 3)
Background
On November 17, 2008, a stop work notice was issued to the applicant for constructing
a second -floor addition above a detached structure without the required building
permits. Review of plans for the addition subsequently submitted by the applicant
indicated the building under construction included a duplex which was located 20 feet
within the required 25 -foot; rear yard setback.
In March 2010, the applicant submitted an application for a Modification Permit (MD2010-
007) to allow a 15 -foot encroachment. The proposal also included significant
reconstruction of the original residence to provide the required parking for the original
residence and proposed duplex (three units in total). In July of 2010, the Planning
Commission approved the applicant's request on appeal from the Zoning Administrator.
No building permit was issued following approval of the Modification Permit. Today, the
applicant indicates that he does not have the financial ability to implement the approved
project given the significant scope of work; the applicant has abandoned that project. To
remedy the violation, the applicant proposes the subject Variance to allow the structure to
remain in its current position with a 20 -foot encroachment into the 25 -foot required rear
yard setback. The proposal would also reduce the total units from three to two; the original
residence and one unit to the rear in the new construction.
General Plan
The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the site RM (Multiple -Unit
Residential) with a maximum density of 43 dwelling units per acre. The total of two
dwelling units on a 7,003 sq. ft. lot is consistent with the RM land use designation and
the resulting density is below the maximum allowable density.
Zoning Code
The property is zoned RMD(1000), which provides for medium density residential
development up to approximately 43 dwelling units per gross acre, including single -
family (attached and detached), two - family, and multi - family residential uses. The
development of the 7,003 sq. ft. lot with two units is consistent with the RMD(1000)
district.

January 19, 2012

The proposed structure meets all applicable zoning standards (front and side setbacks,
parking, and building height) with the exception of the required 25 -foot rear setback
area.
Variance
A variance is a request to waive or modify certain standards when, because of special
circumstances applicable to the property, including location, shape, size, surroundings,
topography, or other physical features, the strict application of the development
standards otherwise applicable to the property denies the property owner privileges
enjoyed by other property owners in the vicinity and in the same zoning district. A
variance can only be granted to maintain parity between the variance site and nearby
properties in the same zoning district. To do otherwise would constitute a grant of
special privileges that is inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties.
Section 20.52.090.F of the Zoning Code, requires the Planning Commission to make
the following findings before approving a variance:
A. That there are special or unique circumstances or conditions applicable to the
subject property (e.g. location, shape, size, surrounding, topography, or other
physical features) that do not apply generally to other properties in the vicinity
under an identical zoning classification.
B. That strict compliance with Zoning Code requirements would deprive the subject
property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under an
identical zoning classification.
C. That the granting of the Variance is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of substantial property rights of the applicant.
D. That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity and in the same
zoning district.
E. That the granting of the Variance will not be detrimental to the harmonious and
orderly growth of the City, or endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a
hazard to the public convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of
persons residing or working in the neighborhood.
F. Granting of the Variance will not be in conflict with the intent and purpose of this
Section, this Zoning Code, the General Plan, or any applicable specific plan.
Staff concludes that there are facts associated with the subject property that support the
required findings. The lot is rectangular in shape, 140 feet in depth and a little over
7,000 square feet in size, which less than '/2 the depth of the majority of lots identically

zoned (RMD) (See Figure 1). The required front and rear setbacks (20 and 25 feet,
respectively) comprise 32% of the project site and these setbacks would compromise
15.5% of the larger and similarly zoned lots. The depth and size of the lot, coupled with
the location of the existing residence, are special circumstances where strict compliance
with the rear setback standard significantly limits the ability of the property owner to
provide more than one unit on the property depriving a substantial property right
provided by the multi - family designation.

The abutting property to the rear is developed with a two -story, single - family residence.
The residence is not oriented toward the proposed project and is located at a higher
grade than the subject property (approximately 3 feet). The side yard elevation of the
abutting residence has only one window that faces the project and it is not to a bedroom
or active living area. It is either a bathroom window or within a stairwell. No privacy
issues are anticipated with respect to this property. The lot provides a reduced rear yard

setback of 15 feet approved by the County of Orange through the Planned Unit
Development process. Other reduced or nonconforming setbacks are evident in the
immediate vicinity on similarly sized and zoned lots. The lots deeper lots as shown in
Figure 1 appear to be developed with residential buildings setback 25 feet from the rear
property line'.
The side of an existing 2 -story apartment building is located to the north and second
floor bedroom windows will be in close proximity to one another. The buildings will be
approximately 9 to 10 feet apart which is not consider a significant privacy issue.
The lot to the south is developed with several single -story residential buildings and the
project provides a side yard setback of slightly over 7 feet. These two factors avoid any
significant impacts to this property.
The Public Works Department has reviewed the proposed design and although vehicle
maneuvering to the proposed tandem garage is less than optimal, there is sufficient
area for vehicles to use the garage and cars can use the paved area in the front yard to
turn around to exit the site in a forward direction.
The granting of the applicant's request is consistent with the intent of the General Plan
and Zoning Code to provide a safe and livable community by providing a path forward to
resolving this longstanding code enforcement issue. Therefore, staff recommends that
the Planning Commission approve Variance No VA2011 -011 based on the discussion
and facts above and the recommended conditions of approval that have been
incorporated into the attached Resolution (Attachment PC1).
Alternatives
The Planning Commission can consider approving a modified project with a larger
setback or it can deny the application. A larger setback would necessitate removal of a
portion of the rear of the building and should the depth of the garage be reduced below
35 feet, two parking spaces would be compromised making the site deficient.
Application denial would allow the applicant to modify the structure to provide a 15 -foot
encroachment as approved by MD2010 -007; however, additional parking would be
necessary to support the additional unit. Another option if the Variance is denied could
result in the demolition of the structure and reconstruction of the existing garage to
provide required parking for the original residence.
' Prior to annexation, the County of Orange Zoning Code required a 25 -foot rear yard setback and accessory
structures, such as garages and carports, were allowed to be located within the rear setback area. Upon annexation to
the City of Newport Beach in 2007, the provision for detached accessory structures to be located within the rear
setback area was not included within the City Zoning Ordinance.

AVENUE (PA2011 -212)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH HEREBY FINDS AS
FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. STATEMENT OF FACTS.
1. An application was filed by Dunn Voyer, with respect to the property located at 20442
Santa Avenue, and legally described legally described as TR 456, LOT 6, POR OF LOT
requesting approval of a Variance No. VA2011 -011.
2. The applicant proposes a variance to allow an existing residential building constructed
without the benefit of permits to encroach 20 feet into the required 25 -foot rear setback
area.
3. On July 22, 2010, the Planning Commission approved Modification Permit No. MD
2010 -007 allowing a portion of the existing unpermitted building to encroach 15 -feet
within the the required 25 -foot rear setback area. The applicant has abandoned the
project approved pursuant to MD2010 -007 due to financial reasons.
4. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the site RM (Multiple -Unit
Residential) with a maximum density of 43 dwelling units per acre.
5. The property is zoned RMD(1000), which provides for medium density residential
development up to approximately 43 dwelling units per gross acre, including single -
family (attached and detached), two - family, and multi - family residential uses.
6. The subject property is not located within the coastal zone.
7. A public hearing was held on January 19, 2012, in the City Hall Council Chambers, 3300
Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California. A notice of time, place and purpose of

Planning Commission Resolution No.
SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS.
2 of 8
In accordance with Section 20.52.090.F of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, the following
findings and facts in support of such findings are set forth:
Finding:
A. That there are special or unique circumstances or conditions applicable to the subject
property (e.g. location, shape, size, surrounding, topography, or other physical features)
that do not apply generally to other properties in the vicinity under an identical zoning
classification.
Facts in Support of Finding:
A -1. The subject property is zoned RMD(1000) and is rectangular in shape, 140 feet in
depth and approximately 7,000 square feet in size. The majority of lots within the
identical zoning classification are approximately 290 feet in depth.
A -2. The front and rear setbacks (20 and 25 feet, respectively) comprise 32% of the project
site lot. These setbacks comprise only 15.5% of the majority of lots identically zoned.
A -3. The existing residence occupies including the existing front yard occupies 53.6% of
the overall lot.
Findinq:
B. That strict compliance with Zoning Code requirements would deprive the subject property
of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under an identical zoning
classification.
Facts in Support of Finding:
B -1. Strict compliance with the rear setback standard given the unique circumstances
identified in the facts that support the Finding A above significantly limits the ability of
the property owner to provide more than one unit on the property depriving a
substantial property right provided by the multi - family designation.
B -2. Other properties in the vicinity with the identical zoning designation [RMD(1000)] enjoy
the privilege of providing more than one unit on their properties consistent with the
multiple unit land use designation.
Finding:
C. That the granting of the Variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of
substantial property rights of the applicant.
Planning Commission Resolution No.
Facts in Support of Finding:
3 of 8
C -1. The project site is designated for multiple unit residential by the General Plan and the
Zoning Ordinance. The granting of the Variance would allow the existing construction
to proceed allowing an additional unit on the property, a substantial property right,
enjoyed by properties identically Zoned while avoiding the expense of eliminating the
existing construction entirely.
C -2. To provide a larger setback, a portion of the rear of the two -story building would need
to be removed and should the depth of the garage be reduced below 35 feet, two
parking spaces would be compromised making the site deficient. Increasing the
setback would not provide significant benefits to future occupants of the proposed
development or abutting properties given the design of the proposed project and
orientation of existing construction on abutting lots.
Finding:
D. That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity and in the same zoning
district.
Facts in Support of Finding:
D -1. The granting of the Variance would not constitute a special privilege inconsistent with
the limitations upon other properties Zoned RMD(1000) as it allows the property owner
to maintain parity (multi - family use) with the development of other lots in the vicinity.
D -2. The granting of the Variance does not relieve the requirement to obtain required
Building Permits and any corrective work deemed necessary by the Building Official.
Finding:
E. That the granting of the Variance will not be detrimental to the harmonious and orderly
growth of the City, or endanger, jeopardize, or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public
convenience, health, interest, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in
the neighborhood.
Facts in Support of Finding:
E -1. The abutting property to the rear is developed with a two -story, single - family residence
and is not oriented toward the proposed project. The abutting residence is located at a
higher grade than the subject property by approximately 3 feet. The side yard
elevation of the abutting residence that faces the proposed project has only one
second level window that faces the project. The window is frosted and does not
appear to be in a bedroom or active living area. No privacy issues are anticipated with
respect to this property.
E -2. The side of an existing 2 -story apartment building is located to the north and second
floor bedroom windows will be in close proximity to one another and the buildings will
Planning Commission Resolution No.
am-
be approximately 9 to 10 feet apart and given this separation, no significant privacy
impact is expected.
E -3 The lot to the south is developed with several single -story residential buildings and the
project provides a side yard setback of slightly over 7 feet. These two factors avoid
any significant impacts to this property.
E -4 The Public Works Department has reviewed the proposed design and although vehicle
maneuvering to the proposed tandem garage is not optimal, there is sufficient area for
vehicles to use the garage and cars can use the paved area in the front yard to turn
around to exit the site in a forward direction.
E -5 The approval of this Variance is conditioned such that the applicant is required to
obtain all necessary permits in accordance with the Building Code and other
applicable Codes and to correct and complete the project diligently thereby eliminating
a potential hazard to the area.
Finding:
F. Granting of the Variance will not be in conflict with the intent and purpose of this Section,
this Zoning Code, the General Plan, or any applicable specific plan.
Facts in Support of Finding:
F -1. The subject property is designated by the Land Use Element of the General Plan RM
(Multiple -Unit Residential) with a maximum density of 43 dwelling units per acre which
would allow a maximum of 6 units on the property. Approval of the Variance will
facilitate a total of 2 units at the property, well below the maximum density allowed.
F -2. The subject property is zoned RMD(1000), which provides for medium density
residential development up to approximately 43 dwelling units per gross acre,
including single - family (attached and detached), two - family, and multi - family residential
uses. Approval of the Variance will facilitate a total of 2 units at the property, well
below the maximum density allowed.
F -3. The purpose of setback standards is to provide adequate separation of buildings for
light, access and ventilation. The granting of the Variance will necessitate 5 -foot
setbacks to the north and east and a 7 -foot setback to the west. Adequate separation
from these adjoining properties will be maintained consistent with the intent of the
Zoning Code.
F -4. The subject property is not located within a specific plan area
Planning Commission Resolution No.

Re: Request for Variance at 20442 Santa Ana Avenue to allow a residential building
setback to encroach 20 feet into the required 25 -foot rear yard setback.
Description of subject property;
The property is surrounded by all tenant occupied multi- family residences. To the
North is a tenant occupied 26 -unit apartment building. To the South is a tenant
occupied triplex. Across the street to the West is the outside perimeter fence of
the Santa Ana Country Club. The East, rear, is a single unit that is part of a five
unit PUD and only has one window that faces the subject property. The window
is an opaque staircase window with. no privacy issues. The Eastern abutting
property is elevated 3 feet higher than the subject property and has an existing 5-
foot rear setback separated by a 6 foot tall fence.
On the title report the subject property is listed as a SFR but in fact has
been a three tenant occupied unit multi - family residential since 1955. The subject
property had been under the County of Orange's jurisdiction until 1988 when the
City of Newport Beach annexed [lie property.
The owner filed and received approval for Modification Permit M.D2010-
007 and was approved for three units and a 15 foot encroachment into the 25 foot
setback on August 5, 2010. The proposed Variance would reduce the property
density from three units to two units and maintain the 5 foot rear setback that it
has maintained since 1955.
Justification and Findings
1. There are special or unique r_ircwnstanees or conditions applicable to subject (e.g.
location, shape, size, surrounding, topography, or other physical features) that do
apply generally to other properties in tine vicinity under an identical zoning
classification;
The granting of the Variance is necessary clue to practical co_ust.raints associated with the
property and the strict application of tine zoning Code results nu physical hardslnips that are
nca!;ns�istent: with the purpose a +id illte' t o'f the zoning code.
a. The depth and size of the lot (50'x1z10'and 7,003 square-, feet respectively)
when combined with the front and rear setbacks (20 and 25 feet
respectively) significantly limits available area for construction.
b. The site is designated for multi - family residential use and the strict
application of setback standards along with parking requirements and
height limits effectively restricts the ability of the property owner to
develop multi- family residential uses consistent with the general plan.
2. Strict compliance with Zoning Code requirements would deprive the subject property
of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under and identical
zoning classification;
An encroachment of 20 feet into the required 25 -foot rear yard setback is compatible with
existing development in the neighborhood when comparing setbacks within the general vicinity
and the closest abutting residential building at 20452 Savanna Lane, which is two story and is
located 5 'feet from the intervening property line, and is built on a grade that is approximately 3
feet higher than tiv, grade of the project site. This two- story, single -Unit residential building has
only one frosted window in the elevation that faces the project site; therefore, reducing the rear
yard setback on the subject property by 20 feet world be compatible with the surrounding multi-
family residential development.
3. Granting of the Variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of
substantial property rights of the applicant;
An encroachment of 20 feet into the required 25 -foot rear yard setback is necessary for the
projects property owner to preserve the existing residential structure at the front of the property
and provide the adequate 4 -car enclosed parking required for two units on the subject property.
The granting of the variance allows the owner the preservation and enjoyment of substantial
property rights shared by the surrounding neighborhood.
4. Granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent
with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity and in the same zoning district;
Approval of the Variance allowing a 20 400t encroachment within the required 2546ot rear yard
setback allows relief from standards which will eliminate an existing Zoning and Building Code
violation without significantly affecting [lie use and enjoyment of abutting and surrounding
properties. he existing 10 -foot separation between the proposed 1 -unit building and 20452
Savanna Lane has sufficient separation for light, air and privacy of future residents of the project
site and abutting propertics.
5. Granting of the Variance will not bcs detrimental to the harmonious and orderly
growth ol'the City, of r:.ndaugerr jeopaidizc" or otherwise cons[itute a htrzcrd to the
r
public couvcauence, healtl'i, ud.rest, rai�ety, ol � general welrare of lies >ons icsiding or
working in the neighborhood; and
Granting of the Variance will not alter or change the character the surrounding neighborhood
and the lesser density of having only two units on a property that is zoned for more than
compensates for the eneroachineut into the rear yard setback. This project provides sufficient
separation for light, air and privacy of firture residents of the project site and abutting properties
and does not affect the use and enjoyment of adjacent properties.
6. Granting of the Variance will not be in conflict with the intent and purpose of this
Section, this Zoning Code, the General Plan, or any applicable specific plan.
Approval of the Variance will not be in conflict with the intent of the General Plan because
the proposed two unit project's density and open space provided is well below the surrounding
properties which are zoned for multi - family residences. This relief in density lessons the impact
imposed on the adjacent properties and is in character for the surrounding area which was annex
by the City of Newport Beach from the County of County of Orange in 2008.
Respectfully submitted,
Dunn Voyer
