A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
NEWPORT BEACH RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT
APPROVEAL AF GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2006 -003 TO
INCREASE THE DEVELOPMENT ALLOCATION OF STATISTICAL AREA L4,
KOLL CENTER NEWPORT OFFICE SITE A BY 24,016 GROSS SQUARE FEET
AND PLANNED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2006-
001 TO INCREASE THE DEVELOPMENT ALLOCATION FOR
PROFESSIONAL AND BUSINESS OFFICES OF SITE A AND ELIMINATE THE
ENTIRE RETAIL SITE #1, AN UNDEVELOPED PORTION OF RESTAURANT
SITE #2 AND THE ENTIRE RESTAURANT SITE #5 (PA 2006 -095)
WHEREAS, an application was filed by The Koll Company with respect to Office Sites A
and B of the Koll Center Newport Planned Community generally bounded by MacArthur
Boulevard to the west, Birch Street to the north and northeast and Jamboree Road to the
southeast, requesting a General Plan Amendmend to increase the maximum gross floor area
permitted in Sub -Area 1 -1 (Office Site A) of the Airport Area (Statistical Area L4) by 24,016
square feet and an amendment to the Koll Center Newport Planned Community (PC -15) to allow
the transfer of 24,016 gross square feet of unused retail, restaurant and office square footage
from Office Site B to Office Site A. The aplications are requested to facilitate the construction of a
21,311 square foot, two -story office building over a subterranean parking garage on a 1.49 -acre
site at 4450 MacArthur Boulevard; and
WHEREAS, on September 7, 2006 and September 21, 2006,
the Planning Commission held a noticed public hearing in the City Hall Council Chambers, 3300
Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California. A notice of time, place and purpose of the
meeting was given in accordance with the Municipal Code. Evidence, both written and oral,
was presented to and considered by the Planning Commission at this meeting; and
WHEREAS, as part of the development and implementation of the Newport Beach
General Plan, the Land Use Element has been prepared which, sets forth objectives,
supporting policies and limitations for development in the City of Newport Beach and
designates the general distribution and general location and extent of the uses of land and
building intensities in a number of ways, including commercial floor area limitations; and
WHEREAS, the project site is designated Administrative, Professional, & Financial
Commercial by the General Plan Land Use Element. The City has adopted Planned Community
District Regulations (PC -15 Koll Center) that establish development standards and use
regulations to implement the General Plan. The property is presently improved with a paved
common parking area for the Office Site A; and,
WHEREAS, the Land Use Element presently allocates a maximum of 436,079 gross
square feet for non hotel uses for Koll Center Newport Office Site A (Sub -Area 1 -1). This floor
area limit includes the projected growth of 1,740 square feet for Steadfast Investment
Properties permitted by General Plan Amendment No. 2005 -007 and 1,222 square feet for the
Pacific Club remaining after the implementation of their current expansion authorized by GPA
3
Planning Commission Resolution No.

97 -3(E). No additional growth within this block is anticipated as noted in the estimated growth
table within the Land Use Element; and,
WHEREAS, the Land Use Element presently allocates a maximum of 1,062,648 gross
square feet to Koll Center Newport Office Site B (Sub -Area 1 -2). This total includes a
projected growth of 1,750 gross square feet for Master Development Corporation authorized
by General Plan Amendment No. 2004 -006. No additional growth within this block is
anticipated as noted in the estimated growth table within the Land Use Element; and,
WHEREAS, a recent review of all existing building permits within Koll Center Newport
Office Site B, revealed that the overall building gross floor area of this area is approximately
1,060,146 square feet, which is 2,502 square feet less than the current maximum contained
within the Land Use Element (1062,648 current maximum — 1,060,146 existing = 2,502). The
total existing floor area of Office Area B was derived from a combination of building plans and
permits and it is believed to be more accurate that the estimate included within the 1988 Land
Use Element; and,
WHEREAS, the Koll Center Newport Planned Community presently authorizes 24,016
square feet of additional retail, office and restaurant floor area beyond that anticipated for
Steadfast Investment Properties, Master Development Corporation and the Pacific Club. This
un -built floor area was authorized prior to the original adoption of the 1998 Land Use Element.
The 1988 Land Use Element established gross floor area limits at existing levels without
accounting for the un -built floor area; and,
WHEREAS, to eliminate the discrepancy between the Land Use Element and the Koll
Center Newport Planned Community, the Koll Company requests an increase in gross floor area
authorized by the General Plan to accommodate the additional development contemplated by
the Koll Center Planned Community; and,
WHEREAS, the General Plan provides for a sufficient diversity of land uses so that
schools, employment, recreation areas, public facilities, churches and neighborhood shopping
centers are in close proximity to each resident of the community. The proposed project would
increase the development allocation in the Office Area A by 24,016 square feet; however, only
a total of 21,311 square feet would be used for the construction of the new office building to
be occupied by the Koll Company. The remaining un -built square footage of 2,705 would be
reserved for future office development within Office Area A. Although the proposed
amendment to the Koll Center Newport Planned Community eliminates a potential small retail
site (10,000 square feet) and two potential restaurant sites (totaling 14,000 square feet), the
Planned Community allows unused floor area allocated for these uses to be converted to
professional and business office use (Section Group V - Restaurants). The project is
consistent with this policy as the change of uses does not significantly alter the character of
the area and the resulting office development is consistent with the surrounding uses and is
consistent with the Land Use Designation of the Land Use Element; and,
WHEREAS, the Land Use Element of the General Plan allows for the redevelopment of
older or underutilized properties to preserve the value of property by allowing for some modest
growth, while maintaining acceptable levels of traffic service. The project consists of an
q
Planning Commission Resolution No.
Page 3 of 23
increase of 24,016 square feet of proposed for office development. The proposed
development is anticipated to generate less than 300 daily trips and therefore, does not
required the preparation of a traffic analysis pursuant to the City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance;
and, therefore it is consistent with Policy B; and,
WHEREAS, the City's General Plan indicates that the City shall maintain suitable and
adequate standards for landscaping, sign control, site and building design, parking and
undergrounding of utilities to ensure that the quality character of residential neighborhoods are
maintained and that commercial and office projects are aesthetically pleasing and compatible
with surrounding land uses. The City implements this policy through the Koll Center Planned
Community Text. The project is designed to meet all applicable development standards
contained within. The proposed building height, size; and, architectural design of the project
will be physically compatible with the existing and surrounding professional office and
commercial developments; and,
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. This project has been
reviewed in accordance with Council Policy A -18 and a voter approval is not required as the
project represent an increase of 42.7 — A.M. and 41.3 P.M. peak hour trips, 24,016 gross
square feet of non - residential floor area and zero residential units. These increases, when
added with 80% of the increases attributable to four previously approved amendments
(GP2001 -004, GP2004 -004, GP2004 -006 and GP2005 -007), result in a total of 66.1 — A.M.
peak hour trips and 72.5 — P.M. peak hour trips and a total increase in 28,080 square fee do
not cumulatively exceed Charter Section 423 thresholds for a vote; and,
WHEREAS, the Land Use Policy No. 4.3 of the 2006 Land Use Element sets criteria for
the transfer of development rights from a property to one or more other properties. The project
would not be in conflict with this policy as the proposed transfer of development rights would
occur within the same statistical area. The reduction of allowed development within the donor
site would serve to reduce traffic trips (general office uses generate fewer trips than restaurant
or retail uses) and therefore, would not result in any impacts to the local circulation system.
The proposed development to be located on the receiver site has been designed with an
architectural style is compatible with existing development in the business complex; and,
WHEREAS, the Land Use Policy No. 5.3.6 of the 2006 Land Use Element requires that
adequate parking be provided and is conveniently located to serve tenants and customers.
Set open parking lots back from public streets and pedestrian ways and screen with buildings,
architectural walls, or dense landscaping. Parking for the new office building would be
provided in a combination of surface and below -grade lots immediately adjacent to the
proposed structure. The parking areas will be convenient and accessible to the tenants and
customers. Views of the parking lot would be minimized through the placement of parking
underground and through the placement of the structure nearest to the public sidewalk that
would serve to shield the existing parking lot to the east of the building. Landscaping of the lot
is also proposed; and,
Planning Commission Resolution No.

WHEREAS, the amendment to the Koll Center Planned Community Text to allow the
conversion of retail site #1, an undeveloped portion of restaurant site #2 and the entire
restaurant site #5 from Office Site B, a total of 24,016 square feet, to professional and
business office use is consistent with the provisions stated in Group V and VI of the Planned
Community Development Standards that allows retail and restaurant acreage not utilized for
that purpose to be developed as office use; and
WHEREAS, the proposed office development meets all the development standards for
building setbacks and on -site parking; and
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
between August 4 and September 5, 2005. Comments were received from Orange County
Airport Land Use Commission, City of Irvine and California Cultural Resource Preservation
Alliance, Inc. The contents of the environmental document, including comments on the
document, have been considered in the various decisions on this project; and,
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 and
incorporated in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program are feasible and reduce
potential environmental impacts to a less than significant level. The Fn tigati^^ measures are
NOW THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section No. 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 Mitiqated Negative Declaration reflects
the Planning Commission's independent judgment and analysis. The Planning Commission
hereby recommends that the City Council adopt Mitigated Negative Declaration SCH No. 2006 -
including the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program attached therewith. The document
and all material which institute the record upon which this decision was based on file with the
Planning Department, City Hall 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach California.
Section No. 2. Based on the aforementioned findings, the Planning Commission
hereby recommends approval of General Plan Amendment No. 2006 -003 affecting the 1988
Land Use Element as amended per Exhibit "A"
Section No. 23. The Planning Commission hereby also recommends approval of
General Plan Amendment No. 2006 -003 per Exhibit "B"
