SUBJECT: Use Permit No. 2004 -046 and Traffic Study 2004 -006 (PA2004 -257)
20162 Birch Street
APPLICANT: Rick Wood representing Birch Medical Office Center
REQUEST
The applicant requests approval of a use permit to allow the conversion of a portion of an
existing general office building to medical office use. The existing building is approximately
32,278 square feet, of which approximately 16,257 square feet are proposed for medical
office use. Approval of a traffic study pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) is
also requested.
Approve Use Permit No. 2004 -046 and Traffic Study No. 2004 -002 subject to the
findings and conditions of approval included within the attached draft resolution.
DISCUSSION
Site/Project Overview
The existing building and site improvements received approval of a Use Permit from the
County of Orange in 2001 for the initial construction on the approximate 1.54 acre site.
At that .time it was determined that the development met all building development
regulations including floor area ratio, building height, setbacks, parking and landscaping
as prescribed by the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan. The proposed conversion
consists of interior tenant alterations and improvements to general medical office uses
and minor modifications to the parking lot in order to achieve the required number of
parking spaces. No exterior changes to the building are proposed and the project as
requested remains in compliance with all applicable development regulations.

Analysis
The proposed medical office use is subject to the approval of a use permit by the
Planning Director as specked by the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan, however, since
the Traffic Study requires Planning Commission approval, the use permit request comes
before the Commission as well.
A traffic study is required pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) when a
project will generate more than 300 average daily trips (ADT). The City Traffic Engineer
prepared a preliminary estimate of trips and concluded that a traffic study would be
required for the proposed medical office building. A traffic study has been prepared by
Austin Foust Associates, Inc. (Exhibit 2) under the supervision of the City Traffic
Engineer pursuant to the TPO and its implementing guidelines. Additionally, the Traffic
Engineer prepared a supplemental analysis that included a follow -up ICU analysis.
These two documents will be cumulatively referred to as the "traffic study" in this report.
Parking
The existing development, approved by the County, provides 120 parking spaces for
29,944 square foot building (11250 gross). Staff analyzed parking based on a slightly
different square foot total of 30,388 based upon the city's parking standards that use net
square feet for office uses and gross square feet for medical office uses. Mechanical
equipment rooms, elevator shafts and stairwells were not included in the original
parking calculation based upon the County's methodology for calculating gross square
footage and parking. The result is a total of 122 parking spaces required based on a
1/250 parking requirement for both types of office uses. Although the existing
requirement is 1/200 for medical office uses, this project had a complete development
review application on file with the City thereby allowing it to be parked at the previous
1/250 rate which is consistent with the ordinance adopted by the City Council.

In addition to the two space increase, the Building Code requires a higher percentage of
disabled parking spaces for medical office uses that will increase the number of
disabled spaces from 5 to 10. Therefore, a portion of the parking lot will be re- striped
and several of the landscape fingers may have to be slightly reduced in size to
accommodate these larger spaces. The reduction in landscaping is minimal and the
resulting plan revisions remain compliant with landscape standards.
Use Permit
The use permit request is for the conversion of general office space into medical office
use as required by the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan regulations. No inpatient uses
are requested or permitted, nor will uses that render patients incapable of unassisted
self preservation requested or permitted, at this time.
In order for the Planning Commission to approve the requested Use Permit, the
following findings must be made.
That the proposed location of the use is in accord with the objectives of this code
and the purposes of the district in which the site is located.
The proposed medical use is located in an area designated as Business Park by the
Speck Plan District No. 7 district, which is a business office designation. The existing
office building was originally constructed in compliance with all applicable development
regulations related to setbacks, building height, floor area and has not proven to conflict
with surrounding uses or proven inconsistent with the APF zoning district. Medical office
uses are consistent with this zoning designation and are allowed with a use permit.
Additionally, it is not likely the medical office use within the existing building will prove
incompatible with the surrounding area.
2. That the proposed location of the use permit 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.
The medical office use is consistent with the Administrative, Professional and Financial
Commercial General Plan Land Use designation and the purpose of the Santa Ana
Heights (Business Park) Speck Plan. The proposed use office development is located
in an existing office building along a portion of Birch Street developed with similar sized
office buildings. The proposed use provides the required parking and only minor peak
hour trip increases are projected. The operational characteristics and function of the
proposed medical office use will be located entirely within the building. The proposal is
for professional medical office uses that will have typical business hours and will not
0
Birch Medical Office Center

Page 5
function as a clinic or emergency medical facility. Although not entirely occupied, the
existing office building has not proven to be detrimental to the surrounding area or the
City, nor is it anticipated that the proposed use will be detrimental.
3. 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.
Medical office uses are permitted in the Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan (Business
Park) district with the approval of a Use Permit. The project has been reviewed and
conditioned to ensure that conflicts with surrounding land uses are minimized or
eliminated to the greatest extent possible. Additionally, the project adheres to all
applicable development regulations and will provide the minimum required parking.
Given that the proposed location is in an existing conforming building, staff believes the
findings to approve the medical office use can be made and recommended conditions of
approval have been included in the draft resolution.
Traffic Study
The traffic study identifies the potential traffic and circulation impacts associated with
the proposed development. The project is forecast to open later this year. Therefore the
analysis has been conducted for the year 2006.
The study analyzed the conversion of 18,885 square feet of the existing office building
to a medical office use. The study concluded that the conversion will result in 680 new
average daily trips above the existing general office use. Of these, 20 new AM peak
hour trips and 59 new PM peak hour trips will be generated.
The study evaluated eleven (11) intersections with potential impacts analyzed using the
methodology required by the TPO. The City considers Level of Service D (LOS) as the
upper limit of satisfactory operations for intersections. Mitigation is required for any
intersection where project traffic causes the intersection to deteriorate from LOS D to
LOS E. If an intersection is operating at LOS E or worse in the baseline condition,
project impact occurs when the project- generated traffic increases the ICU (Intersection
Capacity Utilization) by 0.01 or more.
The project is forecast to contribute one percent or more to the traffic volume at three
intersections:
• Birch Street and Bristol Street
• Birch Street and Bristol Street North
• MacArthur Boulevard and Birch Street
1
Birch Medical Office Center
April 21, 2005
Page 6
The other eight intersections were omitted from further ICU analysis as they did not
meet the One Percent Test per the TPO.
The ICU analysis of these three intersections concludes that the three intersections
continue to operate at LOS B or better during both the morning and evening peak hours,
and, therefore, no mitigation is required.
The traffic study also performed a cumulative analysis that includes background traffic,
approved and cumulative projects. The City of Newport Beach identified traffic growth
from 11 approved and reasonably foreseeable projects that are anticipated for
completion within the next few years. As with the TPO analysis, the proposed project
did not pass the 1% test at the three intersections previously mentioned. The
subsequent ICU analysis determined that the proposed project would have no marginal
impact on those intersection and they will continue to operate at LOS B.
Santa Ana Heights Project Advisory Committee (PAC)
The Santa Ana Height PAC provided comments on the proposed plan that indicate that
the conversion of the office space to medical office is acceptable if the project provides
required parking.
Environmental Review
This project has been reviewed and it has been determined that it is categorically
exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act under Class 1
(Existing Facilities). This exemption covers interior alterations to existing private
buildings. The interior alterations proposed and parking lot changes at the property are
minor and the site has no significant environmental resources that would be impacted
by the construction and operation of the project.
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.
Additionally, the item appeared upon the agenda for this meeting, which was posted at
City Hall and on the city website.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF NEWPORT BEACH APPROVING USE PERMIT NO. 2004 -046
AND TRAFFIC STUDY NO. 2004 -006 FOR PROPERTY LOCATED
AT 20162 BIRCH STREET (PA2004 -257).
WHEREAS, an application was filed by Birch Medical Office Center regarding a property
located at 20162 Birch Street requesting approval of Use Permit No. 2004 -046 to convert a
portion of an existing office building to be used for medical office uses and approval of Traffic
Study No. 2004 -006 pursuant to the Traffic Phasing Ordinance.
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on April 21, 2005 in the City Hall Council
Chambers, 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California. A notice of time, place and
purpose of the aforesaid meeting was given. Evidence, both written and oral, was presented to
and considered by the Planning Commission at this meeting.
Now, therefore the Planning Commission hereby resolves as follows:
Section No. 1: The Planning Commission makes the following findings:
1. The Land Use Element of the General Plan designates the site for Administrative,
Professional and Financial. Medical office uses are permitted uses within this category.
2. The project will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, peace, 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 for the following reasons:
a. The proposed medical use is located in an area designated as Business Park by the
Santa Ana Heights Specific Plan district, which is a professional business office
designation. The existing office building was originally constructed in compliance with
all applicable development regulations related to setbacks, building height, floor area,
and has not proven to conflict with surrounding uses or proven inconsistent with the
APF zoning district. Medical office uses are consistent with this zoning designation and
it is not likely the use will prove inconsistent with the surrounding area.
b. The medical office use is consistent with the Administrative, Professional and Financial
Commercial General Plan Land Use designation and the purpose of the Santa Ana
Heights (Business Park) Specific Plan. The office development is located in an existing
office building along a portion of Birch Street developed with similar sized office
buildings. The operational characteristics and function of the proposed medical office
use will be located entirely within the building. The professional medical office uses will
have typical business hours and will not function as a clinic or emergency medical
facility. The existing office building has not proven to be detrimental to the surrounding
area or the City, nor is it anticipated that the proposed use will be detrimental.

2. A traffic study, entitled Traffic Analysis for Birch Street Medical Office Conversion (Austin -
Foust Associates, Inc. January 28, 2005), was prepared for the project in compliance with
Chapter 15.40 of the Municipal Code (Traffic Phasing Ordinance).
a. The. proposed office conversion of up to 18,855 square feet of medical office use is
expected to generate 680 new daily trips with 20 new trips during the morning, and 59
new trips during the evening peak hour.
b. The traffic study determined that the project will contribute less than a 1 % increase in
traffic at eight (8) of the eleven (11) intersections examined and therefore no
mitigation is required for those.
c. The traffic study determined that the project will not cause the level of service to
decline at the remaining three (3) intersections where there will be an increase of
more than 1% in traffic volume based on the ICU Analysis, and therefore, no
mitigation is required.
3. The project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15302 (Class 1) of
the implementing guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act. This exemption
covers interior alterations to existing private buildings. The interior alterations and parking
lot changes at the property are minor, and the site has no significant environmental
resources that would be impacted by the construction and operation of the project.
Section No. 2: The Planning Commission of the City of Newport Beach hereby approves
Use Permit No. 2004 -046 and Traffic Study No. 2004 -006, subject to the conditions set forth in
Exhibit "A", the plans dated April 14, 2005.
Section No. 3: This action shall become final and effective fourteen days after the
adoption of this Resolution unless within such time an appeal to the City Council is filed with the

TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
This report summarizes an analysis performed for the proposed conversion of 18,885 square feet of
existing general office space to medical office space at 20162 Birch Street in Newport Beach based on the
City's Traffic Phasing Ordinance (TPO) methodology. In addition, this report summarizes the results of
an analysis of cumulative conditions in compliance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
requirements.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The existing office building at 20162 Birch Street consists of 31,500 square feet of general office
space. The project consists of converting 18,885 square feet of existing general office space to medical
office space. The project is located on the east side of Birch Street south of Bristol Street in the City of
Newport Beach. Figure 1 illustrates the location of the project. Figure 2 illustrates the proposed site plan.
TRIP GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION
The proposed project consists of the conversion of 18,885 square feet of existing general office
space to medical office space. The increase in traffic generated by the proposed medical office space was
added to the surrounding circulation system. Trip generation for the proposed project is summarized in
Table 1. As this table indicates, the proposed project results in an increase of 680 new trips daily. During
the AM peak hour there is an increase of 20 trips generated compared with the trip generation of the
existing office space. During the PM peak hour the proposed project generates 59 new trips compared
with the trip generation of the existing office space.
Trip distribution of project - generated traffic onto the surrounding circulation system was
determined from observed travel patterns in the vicinity of the project site as well as from locations and
levels of development in relation to the subject property. The general distribution is illustrated in Figure
3. Project - generated trips were distributed to the circulation system according to these distribution
patterns. Figure 4 illustrates AM peak hour project trips, and Figure 5 illustrates PM peak hour project
trips.

TPO TRAFFIC IMPACTS
The City of Newport Beach identified 11 intersections for analysis to determine the impact of the
proposed general office to medical office conversion. These intersections are:
MacArthur Boulevard and Campus Drive
Campus Drive/Irvine Avenue and Bristol Street North
Campus Drive/Irvine Avenue and Bristol Street
Irvine Avenue and Orchard Drive
Irvine Avenue and Mesa Drive
Irvine Avenue and University Drive
MacArthur Boulevard and Birch Street
Birch Street and Bristol Street North
Birch Street and Bristol Street
Jamboree Road and Bristol Street North
Jamboree Road and Bristol Street
Existing (2004) peak hour intersection volumes were provided by City Staff. An ambient growth
rate of 1.0 percent per year was added to the existing volumes on MacArthur Boulevard, Irvine Avenue,
and Jamboree Road. Construction of the project is assumed to be complete in 2005; therefore, the study
year is 2006. Traffic generated by approved projects in the study area, obtained from City Staff, were
added to the existing peak hour volumes to obtain year 2006 background peak hour volumes for the
intersections prior to the addition of project - generated traffic. Table 2 summarizes the approved projects
included in this analysis. Background- plus - project peak hour volumes were obtained by adding the
project - generated peak hour intersection volumes presented above to the existing- plus - regional growth-
plus- approved projects peak hour volumes.
The TPO analysis consists of a one percent analysis and an intersection capacity utilization (ICU)
analysis at each study intersection. The one percent analysis compares the proposed project traffic with
projected background peak hour volumes. To pass the one percent analysis, peak hour traffic from the
proposed project must be less than one percent of the projected background peak hour traffic on each leg
1 of the intersection. If the proposed project passes the one percent analysis, then the ICU analysis is not

required and no further analysis is necessary. If the proposed project does not pass the one percent
t analysis, then the ICU analysis must be performed for the intersection which fails to pass the one percent
I - test.
i . Table 3 summarizes the results of the one percent analysis (the one percent analysis sheets are
,i included in the appendix). As this table indicates, the proposed project does not pass the one percent
analysis at two study intersections during the AM and PM peak hour; therefore, an ICU analysis is
I
' required for the intersections of Birch Street and Bristol Street North and Birch Street and Bristol Street.
An ICU analysis was performed for the two intersections which did not pass the one percent test.
Existing lane configurations were assumed, and a capacity of 1,600 vph per lane with no clearance factor
was utilized. Table 4 summarizes the existing, background, and background- plus - project ICU values
l
during the AM and PM peak hours (actual ICU calculation sheets are included in the appendix).
As the ICU summary table indicates, the project will have no marginal impact on the intersections
of Birch Street and Bristol Street North and Birch Street and Bristol Street which will operate at level of
service (LOS) `B" or better during the AM and PM peak hours. The project has no marginal impact on
the study intersections, and no mitigation is required.
. CUMULATIVE CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
City Staff provided a list of I1 known but not approved projects for use in a cumulative conditions
analysis. These cumulative projects are summarized in Table 5. Trip generation and distribution for each
cumulative project was also provided by City Staff. The peak hour cumulative intersection volumes were
added to the background volumes presented earlier, then project - generated traffic was compared to one
percent of the background - plus - cumulative traffic. The proposed project does not pass the one percent
test at the two study intersections identified above; therefore, an ICU analysis is required at these study
intersections.
The results of the cumulative ICU analysis are summarized in Table 6 (actual ICU calculation
sheets are included in the appendix). As the cumulative ICU table indicates, the proposed project will
have no marginal impact on the study intersections which continue to operate at LOS `B" or better, and
no mitigation is required.

SITE ACCESS AND CIRCULATION
The project provides a single driveway onto Birch Street. Birch Street is a four -lane street with a
two -way left -turn lane in the vicinity of the project site. Project traffic has full access to Birch Street from
the project driveway.
1 . The project will provide 122 parking spaces on -site, including five handicapped parking spaces.
. The City parking requirement is one space per 250 square feet of office space, which results in 122 spaces
for the entire site. The project will provide the required number of parking spaces on -site.
Two -way circulation with 90 -degree parking is provided in the parking lot. The site plan indicates
that parking spaces vary from 16 feet to 18 feet deep with a width of nine feet. The drive aisles vary from
24 feet to 25 rh feet. The City Municipal Code specifies that the minimum length of parking spaces is 17
feet with a minimum width of 8 t/2 feet and a minimum drive aisle width of 26 feet. The parking plan
should be redesigned to provide the minimum parking space dimensions.
A delivery truck loading area should be shown on the site plan. Deliveries to medical office
buildings tend to be more frequent than deliveries to general office buildings, and a specified loading
zone should be indicated on the site plan.
CONCLUSIONS
The proposed project, consisting of the conversion of 18,885 square feet of existing general office
space out of 31,500 square feet of existing general office space to medical office space, will generate 680
more daily trips than is currently being generated by the site, and 20 more AM peak hour trips and 59
more PM peak hour trips than existing uses. The marginal impact of project traffic on the street system
was determined at 11 intersections in the vicinity. Two of the 11 intersections did not pass the City's one
percent analysis; however, the project had no marginal impact on the ICU values at these two
intersections, which will continue to operate at level of service (LOS) `B" or better during the AM and
PM peak hours. Consequently, the proposed project has no significant impact on the study intersections,
and no additional intersection improvements are required.
The impact of traffic from known but not approved projects was included in a cumulative
conditions analysis. Under cumulative conditions, the project passed the City's one percent test at all but
Birch street Medical Office Conversion TPO 15 Austin -Foust Associates, Inc.
Traffic Analysis 017075rpt.doc
41
two study intersections. However, the project had no marginal impact on the ICU values at any of these
two intersections during the AM or PM peak hour. Therefore, the proposed project has no significant
impact on the study intersections under cumulative conditions, and no intersection mitigation measures
are required.
DEFINITIONS
Certain terms used throughout this report are defined below to clarify their intended meaning:
ADT Average Daily Traffic. Generally used to measure the total two - directional
traffic volumes passing a given point on a roadway.
DU Dwelling Unit. Used in quantifying residential land use.
ICU Intersection Capacity Utilization. A measure of the volume to capacity ratio
for an intersection. Typically used to determine the peak hour level of service
for a given set of intersection volumes.
LOS Level of Service. A scale used to evaluate circulation system performance
based on intersection ICU values or volume/capacity ratios of arterial
segments.
Peak Hour This refers to the hour during the AM peak period (typically 7 AM - 9 AM) or
the PM peak period (typically 3 PM - 6 PM) in which the greatest number of
vehicle trips are generated by a given land use or are traveling on a given
roadway.
TSF Thousand Square Feet. Used in quantifying non - residential land uses, and
refers to building floor area.
Vic Volume to Capacity Ratio. This is typically used to describe the percentage of
capacity utilized by existing or projected traffic on a segment of an arterial or
intersection.
VPH Vehicles Per Hour. Used for roadway volumes (counts or forecasts) and trip
generation estimates. Measures the number of vehicles in a one hour period,
typically the AM or PM peak hour.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Gregg Ramirez
Planning Department
FROM: David Keely
Traffic Engin i g
DATE: April 13, 2005
SUBJECT: Birch Street Medical Office Conversion TPO — Supplemental Analysis
This memorandum provides supplemental traffic analysis for the proposed Birch Street Medical
Office conversion project located at 20162 Birch Street. The final traffic study, dated January
28, 2005, was prepared by Austin Foust Associates, Inc. Table 3 of the study summarizes the
results of the One Percent Analysis. The TPO study identified the intersections of Birch
Street/Bristol Street North and Birch Street/Bristol Street did not pass the one percent test. To
pass the one percent test, peak hour traffic from the proposed project must be less than one
percent of the projected background peak hour traffic on any leg of the intersections. If an
intersection fails the One Percent analysis, further analysis is required utilizing the Intersection
Capacity Utilization (ICU) methodology for all analysis scenarios (TPO and Cumulative
Conditions). The results of the TPO indicated that the propose project was not forecast to
cause any significant traffic related impacts.
Additional review of the report revealed that the intersection of MacArthur Boulevard /Birch
Street also fails the One Percent analysis during the p.m. peak hour. Therefore, additional ICU
analysis of MacArthur Boulevard /Birch Street is required for TPO and Cumulative Conditions.
Table 1 summarizes the Level of Service ranges. Table 2 summarizes the ICU analysis for the
additional intersection under TPO analysis conditions (Approved Projects Conditions). Table 3
summarizes the ICU analysis for the additional intersection under Cumulative Conditions. icu
analysis worksheets are provided in Attachment A.
