Agenda Item 5
SUBJECT: Arches Grill (PA 2007 -146)
508 29" Street
■ Extension of Temporary Use
APPLICANT: Daniel Marcheano
PLANNER: Jaime Murillo, Associate Planner

PLANNING DIRECTOR'S ACTION
In accordance with Section 20.60.015 (Temporary Structures and Uses) of the Newport
Beach Municipal Code, the Planning Director has authorized an extension to the
temporary use of an existing eating and drinking establishment for a period not to
exceed an additional 90 days. The action specifically allows the new operator of an
existing eating and drinking establishment to open prior to 5:00 p.m. whereas the
conditions of approval of Use Permit No. 3611 preclude the restaurant from opening
before 5:00 pm.
In reviewing the applicant's use permit amendment request for the extension in the
hours of operation, staff discovered that the approved on -site parking configuration has
been altered by the previous operator, resulting in the loss of 1 on -site parking space. It
appears that the approved parking configuration can no longer be accommodated due
to the placement of a legally constructed trash enclosure and an illegally constructed
block wall. The applicant is currently working with staff to develop an alternative parking
solution that will provide the 3 on -site parking spaces as originally approved; however,
such a configuration may require significant structural changes or construction, which
the applicant is currently considering.
Staff anticipates the parking situation will be resolved shortly and a public hearing to
review the proposed amendment will be scheduled within the next 90 days; until such
time, the Planning Director has temporarily authorized the restaurant to operate from
6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., seven days a week. All other conditions of approval of Use
Permit No. 3611 shall remain in full effect and shall be enforced.
