BACKGROUND
The 4.19 -acre site presently is developed with a 62,457- square foot, vacant industrial
building. The existing building was originally occupied by Edler Industries, Inc., which
manufactured thermo insulation components for rocket motors from 1964 to 2001. Since
then, the property has been leased to various business operators on a temporary basis,
which include a stone and tile sales business, a batting cage and sports equipment
sales business, a patio furniture sales business and various storage operations and
most recently a car rental business.
A majority of the building is one level except mezzanine levels. The building has an
existing loading dock on the south side of the building with surface parking located on
the east and west sides. Vehicular access to the property is provided via existing
driveways on Campus Drive and Birch Street.
In February of 2003, the City Council initiated a General Plan Amendment to allow for
the consideration of self- storage facilities in the range of permitted uses in the Campus
Drive area of Statistical Area L -4 (Airport Area) in order to allow the property to be
developed as a self - storage facility. The property owner later withdrew their request in
• favor of the proposed project.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant currently operates the Land Rover Dealership located at 1540 Jamboree
Road. The Jamboree Road site presently operates as an integrated dealership with sales
and service operations. The applicant desires to consolidate three of their franchises onto
this site for retail operations, while converting the subject site to vehicle service and
inventory storage. The consolidation of the 3 franchises at the Jamboree site presents
capacity issues and the request for a vehicle service and storage facility at the subject
property would effectively resolve these issues. All proposed improvements to be made at
the Jamboree site are minor and do not require an amendment to the existing Use Permit.
The relocation of their service and storage operations to the subject site, however,
necessitates an approval of the requested applications.
The applicant proposes to convert the existing building into a vehicle service and storage
facility. Minor interior demolition is proposed while the majority of the building exterior
would remain unchanged. Interior partition walls, stairways, an existing below -grade
loading dock and an electrical enclosure would be demolished. The mezzanines would be
partially demolished and remodeled for parts and storage areas.
Interior improvements also include conversion of the former main office area on the north
• side of the building into a tool room and locker area for technicians; construction of
approximately 27 service bays within the west side of the building; construction of offices,

•
a customer lounge, parts storage areas and restrooms on the southwest comer of the
building and construction of a vehicle storage area within the east side of the building.
Exterior improvements include construction of a main entrance and customer patio area
on the west side of the building and construction of a service canopy, a 348- square foot
car wash and a trash enclosure on the south side of the building. All existing and proposed
mechanical units will be screened from view. The existing parking areas will be completely
demolished and resurfaced. Landscaping will be provided throughout the property
including site and building perimeters and the parking areas. Four vehicular display pads
will be constructed in the grass area located on the north side of the building fronting on
Dove Street. Upon completion of the improvements, the overall square footage of the
building will be reduced from 62,457 to 58,145 gross square feet, a 4,312 square feet
reduction in building size. Vehicular access to the property is proposed be reduced from
4 driveways (2 along Campus Drive and 2 along Birch Street) to 2 driveways. The
driveways will generally remain in the same location but the drive approaches will be
modified to meet City standards.
The proposed hours of operation are from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday
and from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. It is anticipated that a total of 40 employees
including service and part managers, technicians, service advisors, parts personnel,
service writers and support staff would be working during various shifts. The service •
department would serve approximately 40 vehicles per day. Service includes minor and
major repairs including new and pre -owned vehicle preparation. No body shop, paint
booths or fueling services are proposed.
The remainder of building will be devoted to vehicle storage for service vehicles and new
inventory. The subject site will serve as overflow storage for the existing off -site storage at
the Newport Dunes. No outdoor storage of inventory is planned; however, it could occur
from time to time.
DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
General Plan Amendment— Change in Designation
The project is located in the Campus Drive Area (Statistical Area 1-4) of the Land Use
Element and has a land use designation of Administrative, Professional & Financial
Commercial (APF). This area is bounded by Campus Drive, MacArthur Boulevard, Birch
Street and Bristol Street North. The maximum floor area ratio (FAR) permitted by the
General Plan for the subject property is 0.50/0.75. The proposed project will have a 0.32
FAR, which is less than the maximum permitted by the General Plan.
The project proposes a change to the General Plan land use designation of the site
from Administrative, Professional & Financial Commercial to Retail & Service •
Commercial. The amendment is necessary because vehicle repair /service and vehicle
•

storage are only permitted as ancillary uses in the APF designation. Since the proposed
project would not function as an ancillary use to the Airport Office Area, the proposed
use would not be allowed on the subject site. The change in land use designation to
RSC would allow vehicle repair as a primary use and vehicle storage would then be
allowed as an ancillary use at the subject site. The change in land use would allow the
4.19 -acre site to be used for retail commercial uses as opposed to being used
exclusively for office uses. The General Plan Amendment will not increase the potential
building area entitlement but simply would allow the property to be improved with uses
that are predominantly retail in character which provide goods and services to the
general public. Surrounding land uses include a mixture of office and retail uses, a
carwash /gasoline station, automotive related uses and John Wayne Airport.
Furthermore, since APF and RSC designations are both part of the City's commercial
districts, many of the land uses allowed within these two districts are the same and
include vehicle service and storage. As a result, the proposed use of the property, in
staffs opinion, would not be incompatible with the surrounding uses.
Applicable General Policies
The Land Use Element has 12 general policies to guide consideration of the potential
amendments. The following discussion relates to those general land use policies that
• are applicable to the proposed project.
B. To ensure redevelopment of older or underutilized properties, and to preserve
the value of property, the floor area limits specked in the Land Use Element
allow for some modest growth. To ensure that traffic does not exceed the level of
service desired by the City, variable floor area limits shall be established based
upon the trip generation characteristics of land uses.
The proposed project results in the redevelopment of an older and underutilized
property. With the improvements proposed to be made by the applicant, the value of the
property will be increased. The proposed FAR of 0.32 is within the allowable floor area
limits and the traffic generated by the proposed project will not exceed the level of
service desired by the City as demonstrated by the Traffic Study discussed below.
The proposed changes to Statistical Area L4 pertaining to Campus Drive Area is shown
as Exhibit "A" of the draft Planning Commission Resolution (Exhibit 1).
Charter Section 423 Analysis
Campus Drive Area of Statistical Area L4 has a current General Plan limit of 1,261,727
square feet. The project will not add square footage of non - residential intensity in
Campus Drive Area. However, Council Policy A -18 requires that all proposed General
• Plan amendments be reviewed to determine if a vote would be required. If a project
generates more than 100 peak hour trips, 40,000 square feet of non - residential floor
Land Rover Newport Beach Service Center
April 6, 2006

•
area, or excess of 100 dwelling units, a vote of the citizens would be required, if the
Council approves the requested Amendment.
Council Policy A -18 includes a Trip Rate Table adopted for use when reviewing
proposed GPA's relative to Charter Section 423. As the request is a change in land use
designation from APF to RSC, the maximum peak hour trips methodology will be used.
This category is identified in Council Policy A -18 for RSC, APF and RMC zones and is
the same average rate for the broad list of uses permitted in these zones. The trip
generation rates are 3 for morning and 4 for evening peak hour trips per each 1,000
square feet of floor area. Based on these identical rates the proposed amendment will
result in no additional peak hour trips. In other words, if the site were redeveloped
consistent with either land use designation, on average, there would not be an
appreciable difference in traffic generation. In conclusion, a vote of the electorate is not
required.
Charter Section 423 also requires that 80% of increases (units, area or traffic) from prior
general plan amendments within the same statistical area be added to the traffic
generated by the project to see if cumulatively a vote would be required. There were
three prior amendments approved for Statistical Area L4, and the following chart shows
the area and peak hour trips analysis.

As indicated in the preceding table, the project with "prior amendments" do not exceed
the 100 peak hour trip, 40,000 square foot or 100 dwelling unit thresholds, therefore a
vote pursuant to Charter Section 423 is not required. Should the City Council approve
the proposed amendment, it will become a "prior amendment" that will be tracked for
ten years. The Steadfast Investment project is also being considered on the same
Planning Commission agenda. Should the project be approved, the total A.M and P.M
peak hour trips and building square footage would not exceed the Charter Section 423 •
thresholds.

Code Amendment
The change of use requires a change in the zoning designation to maintain consistency
between the Land Use Element and zoning map. The change in zoning designation
from APF to RSC would not cause the property to become nonconforming under the
RSC development standards. The proposed project complies with all development
regulations specified by the Zoning Code including floor area, the 375 -foot height
limitation zone, building bulk and setbacks.

On -site Parking
The Zoning Code establishes parking requirements for vehicle /equipment repair at a
rate of one space for each 300 square feet of gross floor area and vehicle storage at a
rate of one space for each 500 square feet of gross floor area. Based on these parking
ratios, 162 spaces are required for the proposed project. The site provides a total of 170
spaces for employee and customer parking. Vehicle storage will be provided inside the
building and is not counted towards this parking requirement.
Lighting
The lighting located on the building fagade would be retained. Additional lighting would
be provided in the parking lot for security purposes. Lighting in the parking lot would be
shielded or recessed so that direct glare and reflections are contained within the subject
site.
Staff believes that should the General Plan Amendment and Code Amendment be
approved, the RSC zoning designation is appropriate for this location and would be
consistent with other commercial related developments in the Campus Drive Area.

Use Permit
The applicant requests approval of a Use Permit for the operation of vehicle service and
storage facility under the proposed RSC designation for the subject site. A
recommendation to the City Council to approve these uses requires that the Planning
Commission make the following findings:
• That the proposed location for the vehicle service and storage facility is in accord
with the objectives of the Zoning Code and the purposes of the district in which
the proposed vehicle service and storage facility site is located;
• That the proposed location of the vehicle service and storage facility and the
proposed conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will be
consistent with the General Plan and the purpose of the district in which the site
is located; will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, peace, morals,
comfort, or welfare of persons residing or working in or adjacent to the
neighborhood of such use; and will not be detrimental to the properties or
improvements in the vicinity or to the general welfare of the City; and
• That the proposed use will comply with the provisions of this code, including any •
specific condition required for the proposed use in the district in which it would be
located.
Compatibility of the proposed vehicle service and storage facility with nearby uses is
also a consideration in the Use Permit approval. The subject property is surrounded by
one and two -story office and commercial buildings, a carwash /gasoline station,
automotive related uses and John Wayne Airport. The existing 24 -foot high building will
be improved with design elements that resemble an office or administrative building and
will be substantially consistent in design, quality of materials, scale, and building volume
with that of nearby structures. Furthermore, on -site improvements which include the
provisions of extensive landscaping treatments throughout the property, a new trash
enclosure and newly paved parking lots are expected to enhance the visual
characteristics of the property.
To improve traffic and circulation on the project site and adjoining streets, vehicle
access to the subject property is proposed to be reduced from four to two driveways
and will have modified driveway approaches to meet the City's standards. However, the
Traffic Study recommends that the project provide a driveway on Dove Street. This is to
allow patrons traveling southbound on Campus Drive access to the site on Dove Street
without having to make a u -turn at the intersection of Campus Drive and Quail Street.
The Traffic Engineer reviewed and concurs with this recommendation. The new access
point will be located on the west side of the building and will be aligned with the closest •
•

driveway parallel to the existing building. A condition of approval requiring this provision
has been included in the draft resolution.
Noise sources on the project site, including automotive repair equipment, were
considered in the Initial Study prepared for the project as required by CEQA. No
sensitive noise receptors, e.g. residences, are located in the vicinity of the proposed
service center and the Initial Study found that the highest noise levels would result from
construction of the vehicle service and storage facility.
The proposed vehicle service center is subject to Mitigation Measure N -1 that requires
that construction activities be conducted in accordance with the City of Newport Beach
noise standards and that the hours of construction are limited accordingly. The Initial
Study indicates that operational noise sources would be less than significant with
Mitigation Measure N -2 requiring noise control devices to minimize operational noise
impact consistent with the City's noise standards.
Based upon the operational characteristics of the use, a review of surrounding land
uses, building and site improvements, traffic considerations, noise and lighting, staff
believes that the Planning Commission can recommend approval of the Use Permit for
the proposed facility through the adoption of conditions of approval provided the
General Plan Amendment and Code Amendment are also approved.
•
Traffic Study
The traffic study identifies the potential traffic and circulation impacts associated with
the proposed development. A traffic study is required when a project will generate more
than 300 average daily trips pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO). The City
Traffic Engineer prepared a preliminary estimate of trips and concluded that a traffic
study would be required. A traffic study has been prepared by RK Engineering Group,
Inc. under the supervision of the City Traffic Engineer pursuant to the TPO and its
implementing guidelines (Appendix D of the Mitigated Negative Declaration), CEQA
analysis for cumulative projects and intersection capacity utilization (ICU), and General
Plan analysis. The project will result in a net increase of 1,193 new average daily trips,
113 vehicle trips during morning (AM) peak hour and 102 vehicle trips during the
afternoon (PM) peak hour. Fourteen (14) intersections were identified by the Traffic
Engineer for inclusion in the study. Project related traffic is expected to result in a one
percent increase in nine (9) out of the fourteen (14) study intersections. Intersection
Capacity Utilization analysis was performed on the following 9 intersections:
1.
Mac Arthur Blvd. at Birch Street
2.
Mac Arthur Blvd. at Jamboree Road
3.
Campus Drive at Dove Street
4.
Campus Drive at N Bristol Street

The study concluded that the project related traffic does not cause an unsatisfactory
level of service at any of these intersections as all of the intersections will operate at
LOS D or better. Therefore, no significant impact occurs and no improvements are
required at these intersections.
Environmental Review
A Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) has been prepared by PCR Service
Corporation for the proposed project in accordance with the implementing guidelines of
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The MND is attached as Exhibit No. 3.
The MND identifies six (6) issue areas with 24 mitigation measures. Those issues are:
Air Quality, Hazards/Hazardous Materials, Hydrology/Water Quality, Noise,
Transportation/Traffic, Utilities and Service Systems.
The MND was circulated for public review between February 9 and March 10, 2006.
Comments were received from the Orange County Airport Land Use Commission •
(ALUC), California Cultural Resource Preservation Alliance, Inc. (CCRSA) and
Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). During the preparation of the
responses, new avoidable significant effects have been identified. As result, three (3)
mitigation measures have been drafted to reduce these effects to a less than significant
level. These issues identified related to Cultural Resources, Hazards and Hazardous
Materials and Noise. The introduction of three (3) mitigation measures, however, has
prompted the need to re- circulate the MND pursuant to Section 15073.5.b.1 of the
California Environmental Quality Act.
Staff has prepared an errata (Exhibit 3) to include three (3) new mitigation measures
(CR -1, HM -5 and N -3), minor changes made to Mitigation Measure HM -1, the revised
the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program and the Response to Comments
Document for the Planning Commission to consider. Staff also respectfully recommends
that the Commission consider the draft MND including the errata and require the
recirculation of the MND to be made prior to the City Council's consideration.
Public Notice
Notice of this hearing was published in the Daily Pilot, mailed to property owners within
300 feet of the property (excluding roads and waterways) and posted at the site a
minimum of 10 days in advance of this hearing consistent with the Municipal Code. The
environmental assessment process has also been noticed in a similar manner and all •
mandatory notices per the California Environmental Quality Act have been given.

Finally, the item appeared upon the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at City
Hall and on the city website.
Summary
Staff believes that findings necessary for project approval can be made. It is staffs
opinion the proposed project would not prove detrimental to the area because the
proposed vehicle service and storage facility would be compatible with the surrounding
uses. Furthermore, because of its close proximity to the John Wayne Airport, the
subject property is significantly impacted by the noise from the airport. Consequently, it
is not an ideal location for many uses. The noise is much less of a nuisance to an
automotive use; therefore, it would be a suitable use of the subject property.
The recirculation of the MND is necessary in order to ensure that the public and other
agencies have the opportunity to comment on the revised document before it may be
adopted. With the implementation of the suggested mitigation measures, the projects
environmental impacts will be reduced to less than significant levels.
Should the Planning Commission conclude that the project as proposed would not be
compatible with the surrounding uses and that the site should be redeveloped for office
• uses, the project should be denied or modified to address any issues that may arise. if a
redesigned project is advisable, staff recommends a continuance to allow the applicant
time to revise their plans accordingly should this course of action be sought.

009, CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2004 -012, USE PERMIT NO. 2004 -043
AND TRAFFIC STUDY NO. 2005 -006 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT
2101 DOVE STREET (PA 2004 -249)
WHEREAS, an application was filed by Pendragon North America with respect to
property located at 2101 Dove Street, and legally described as Lots 20, 21, 22, 40, 41, &
42 of Tract No. 3201, as shown on map recorded in Book 130, pages 25-30 of
Miscellaneous Maps, in the Office of the County Recorder to redevelop a former industrial
property into a vehicle service and storage facility. The application requests approval of a
General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation of the property from
Administrative, Professional & Financial Commercial to Retail & Service Commercial. The
application also requests a Code Amendment to rezone the subject property from APF
(Administrative Professional, Financial to RSC (Retail and Service Commercial) and a Use
Permit to allow the operation of a vehicle service and storage facility. Finally, the
application also requires a Traffic Study pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO).
WHEREAS, on April 6, 2006, the Planning Commission held a noticed public
is hearing in the City Hall Council Chambers, 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach,
California at which time the project application, the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
comments received thereon were considered. Notice of time, place and purpose of the
public hearing was given in accordance with law and testimony was presented to and
considered by the Planning Commission at the hearing.
WHEREAS, the project is located in the Campus Drive Area (Statistical Area 1-4)
of the Land Use Element and has a land use designation of Administrative, Professional
& Financial Commercial (APF) and is zoned APF (Administrative, Professional,
Financial).
WHEREAS, a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation of the
site from Administrative, Professional & Financial Commercial to Retail & Service
Commercial is necessary since vehicle service and vehicle storage uses are only
permitted as ancillary uses in the APF designation. The change in land use designation to
RSC would allow vehicle repair as a primary use and vehicle storage would then be
allowed as an ancillary use at the subject site. The change in land use would result in
the 4.19 -acre site to be used for retail commercial uses as opposed to being used
exclusively for office uses. The General Plan Amendment will not increase the potential
building area entitlement but simply would allow the property to be improved with uses
that are predominantly retail in character which provide goods and services to the
general public.

WHEREAS, the proposed change of use and proposed vehicle related use will
be compatible with the surround land uses which include a mixture of office and retail
uses, a carwash /service station, automotive related uses and John Wayne Airport.
Additionally, since APF and the RSC land use designations are both part of the City's
commercial districts, many of the uses allowed within these two districts are the same
and include vehicle service and storage. The vehicle service and storage facility,
therefore, will be consistent with the proposed Retail & Service Commercial land use
designation.
WHEREAS, the proposed project results in the redevelopment of an older and
underutilized property. With the improvements proposed to be made by the applicant,
the value of the property will be increased. The proposed FAR of 0.32 is within the
allowable floor area limits and the traffic generated by the proposed project will not
exceed the level of service desired by the City as demonstrated by the Traffic Study.
WHEREAS, Charter Section 423 requires all proposed General Plan
Amendments to be reviewed to determine if the square footage, peak hour vehicle trip
or dwelling unit thresholds have been exceeded and a vote by the public is required. As
the request is a change in land use policy from APF to RSC, the maximum peak hour
trips methodology has been used. According to Council Policy A -18, the broad list of
uses permitted in the RSC, APF and RMC zones has the same average rate. The trip •
generation rates are 3 for morning and 4 for evening peak hour trips per each 1,000
square feet of floor area. Based on these identical rates the proposed amendment will
result in no additional peak hour trips. There would not be an appreciable difference in
traffic generation, on average, in the event that the site was redeveloped consistent with
either land use designation. Also, with all previously approved amendments, none of the
Charter Section 423 thresholds would be exceeded. Therefore, a vote of the electorate
would not be required.
WHEREAS, the change in zoning designation from APF to RSC would not cause
the property to become nonconforming under the RSC development standards. The
proposed project complies with all development standards of the RSC zone including
floor area, the 375 -foot height limitation zone, on -site parking, signage, lighting, building
bulk and setbacks.
WHERAS, the proposed location of vehicle service and storage facility and the
proposed conditions under which it would be operated and maintained will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in or
adjacent to the neighborhood. The subject property is surrounded by one and two -story
office and commercial buildings, automotive related uses and John Wayne Airport.
There is no surrounding residential that would be disturbed or could be impacted by the
proposed use.

WHEREAS, a Traffic Study has been prepared by RK Engineering Group, Inc.
under the supervision of the City Traffic Engineer pursuant to the TPO and its
implementing guidelines (Appendix D of the Mitigated Negative Declaration), CEQA
analysis for cumulative projects and intersection capacity utilization (ICU), and General
Plan analysis. The project will result in a net increase of 1,193 new average daily trips,
113 vehicle trips during morning (AM) peak hour and 102 vehicle trips during the
afternoon (PM) peak hour. The study concluded that the proposed project will not cause
a significant impact at the study area intersections as all intersections will operate at
LOS D or better; therefore, no improvements are required at these intersections.
WHEREAS, an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) have
been prepared in compliance with the Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State
CEQA Guidelines, and City Council Policy K -3. The Draft MND was circulated for public
comment from February 9 to March 10, 2006. Comments were received from the
Orange County Airport Land Use Commission, California Cultural Resource
Preservation Alliance, Inc. and Department of Toxic Substances Control. The contents
of the environmental document, including comments on the document, have been
considered in the various decisions on this project. As result, it has been determined
that the MND adequately describes the potential impacts of the project.
• WHEREAS, on the basis of the entire environmental review record, the proposed
project will have a less than significant impact upon the environment and there are no
known substantial adverse affects on human beings that would be caused. Additionally,
there are no long -term environmental goals that would be compromised by the project,
nor cumulative impacts anticipated in connection with the project. The mitigation
measures identified are feasible and reduce potential environmental impacts to a less
than significant level. The mitigation measures are applied to the project and are
incorporated as conditions of approval.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
Section 1. The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach does hereby
find, on the basis of the whole record, that there is no substantial evidence that the project
will have a significant effect on the environment and that the Mitigated Negative

Pendragon North America Automotive Inc.
February 1, 2006
Project Descriptions
Pendragon North America Automotive Inc. is proposing to convert the existing building located
at 2101 Dove Street into a vehicle service center and storage facility. The project as proposed
would require approval of a General Plan Amendment and Code Amendment to change the land
use designation and zoning of the subject property from Administrative, Professional, and
Financial to Retail Service Commercial. A Use Permit to allow the operation of vehicle service
center and storage facility is also required. The majority of the improvements would occur
within the building's interior. Minor exterior improvements would also occur including the
construction of a main entrance, patio area, a service canopy, and a car wash.
Additionally, the existing parking areas would be completely demolished and resurfaced. Upon
completion of these improvements, the building would total 58,145 square feet which is 4,312
square feet less than the existing square footages.
Proiect Overview
Currently as the site stands the General Plan and Code Amendment does not have allow the use
of automobile fixed operations and storage facility. Current city standards call for Professional,
Retail, Financial or Commercial Land. The existing facility however due to its close proximity
to Orange County Airport, does not lend itself to the existing allowable uses. The proposed
Automobile operations center will be a better use since this type of business is more tolerable to
the noise being produced by the ascending aircraft...
The current use for this building was for industrial and/or manufacturing. The building has not
been maintained and the entire site is in need of a facelift. The proposed modifications to the
building and the site improvements will most definitely enhance the property.
Description of Design Dove Street
The designs of the facility at Dove Street incorporate extensive landscaping treatments we
believe are conducive with, and appropriate to meet with the APF zone requirements for the area.
The design is not typical of a traditional service facility, rather more similar to an office or
business administrative building. An Innovative design incorporating specific glazing solutions
will enhance and upgrade the appearance of the existing building to develop a building more
conducive to a luxury customer environment.

Employees
It is farther proposed to operate the facilities with 40 employees at the Dove Street Service
Center which includes the Service and Parts Manager's who will be responsible for the activities
on site, Technicians, Service Advisors, Parts personnel, Service Drivers and support staff. The
following is a description of both employee and customer on site arrival and departure times
which anticipates traffic flows at the Dove Street site.
Employees
Number of employees who will arrive between 7 -8 am and 8 -9 am;
27 & 33, respectively
Number of employees who will leave between 4 -5 pm and 5 -6 pm;
35 & 25, respectively
Service Center Activities
To provide a fiuther explanation of our Service Center operation: the purpose of this document is
to describe the average workday based on the shop consisting of approximately 25 work days
with one technician assigned to each bay. The total Fixed Operations departments would consist
of the following number of employees, each requiring a parking space:
Approximately 50 vehicles per day would be serviced, a combination of internal dealership
owned vehicles and customer vehicles. Most of these vehicles will be stored within the
warehouse and shall be moved to be serviced as required. A total of 35% of these will be from
customers and the bulk shall be made up warranty and general service for company owned
vehicles.
In addition to the automotive service aspect of this proposed building, the dove site will be used
for partial storage to service the existing dealership at 1540 Jamboree. At this time vehicles are
already stored offsite at the Dunes in Newport Beach. If a specific vehicle is required from this
or the future location at Dove, Vehicles will be shuttled to the Newport beach dealership at 1540
Jamboree at that time. The new Dove location will serve as an overflow for the existing offsite
storage currently in use by the dealer.

A general description of a day's activity is as follows: The Fixed Operations departments would
have operating hours of 7:00 am to 6:00 pm Monday through Friday and 8:00 am through 5:00
pm on Saturday. Approximately one fourth of the entire Fixed Operations staff is required to
operate the dealership Fixed Operations' department on a Saturday. Dealership personnel arrive
at work at least one hour before the normal operating hours with the majority of the employees
arriving between 6:30 am and 6:45 am. Customers would begin arriving approximately fifteen
minutes before the normal opening time although this would be a minimal number of customers
(possibly two or three). The majority of the customers (in excess of 50 %) would arrive between
9:00 am and 10:00 am and the balance would arrive to drop their vehicles off equality over the
balance of the day.
As vehicles are dropped off for service, vehicles are also being retrieved by customers. This also
happens over the course of the day but over 50% arrive to pick up their vehicles after 5:00 pm on
any evening.
Customers will review their servicing needs with one of four Service Managers and a repair •
order detailing the work to be completed will be presented to, agreed by and signed by the
customer. This repair order will serve as the basis for the work completed by the Technicians. An
adequate parking for dealership personnel and inventory vehicles will be provided within the
building.
