The proposed parcel rW, Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2013 -0 ## Paqe 2 of 9 map is for condominium purposes and is consistent with all of the requirements of the Class 15 exemption. SECTION 3. REQUIRED FINDINGS. The Zoning Administrator determined in this case that the proposed parcel map is consistent with the legislative intent of Title 20 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code and is approved based on the following findings per Section 19.12.070 (Required Findings for Action on Tentative Maps) of Title 19: Finding: A. That the proposed map and the design or improvements of the subdivision are consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan, and with applicable provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and this Subdivision Code. Facts in Support of Finding: A -1. The proposed parcel map is for two -unit condominium purposes. An existing single - family residence (approximately 1,355 square feet) will be demolished and replaced with a new 3,347- square foot two -unit condominium project. The proposed subdivision and improvements are consistent with the density of the R -2 Zoning District and the current General Plan Land Use Designation "Two -Unit Residential." Finding: B. That the site is physically suitable for the type and density of development. Facts in Support of Finding: B -1. The lot is physically suitable for two -unit development because it is regular in shape and has a slope of less than 20 percent. Finding: C. That the design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage nor substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the decision making body may nevertheless approve such a subdivision if an environmental impact report was prepared for the project and a finding was made pursuant to Section 21081 of the California Environmental Quality Act that specific economic, social, or other considerations make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the environmental impact report. Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2013 -0 ## Paqe 3 of 9 Facts in Support of Finding: C -1. This project has been reviewed, and it has been determined that it qualifies for a Class 15 categorical exemption pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (Section 15315, Article 19 of Chapter 3, Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act). The Class 15 (Minor Land Divisions) exemption allows the division of property in urbanized areas zoned for residential, commercial, or industrial use into four or fewer parcels when the division is in conformance with the General Plan and zoning, no variances or exceptions are required, all services and access to the proposed parcels are available, the parcel was not involved in a division of a larger parcel within the previous two years, and the parcel does not have an average slope greater than 20 percent. The proposed parcel map is for condominium purposes and is consistent with all of the requirements of the Class 15 exemption. Finding: D. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements is not likely to cause serious public health problems. Facts in Support of Finding: D -1. The proposed parcel map is for residential condominium purposes. All construction for the project will comply with all Building, Public Works, and Fire Codes, which are in place to prevent serious public health problems. Public improvements will be required of the developer per Section 19.28.010 (General Improvement Requirements) of the Municipal Code and Section 66411 (Local agencies to regulate and control design of subdivisions) of the Subdivision Map Act. All ordinances of the City and all Conditions of Approval will be complied with. Finding: E. That the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. In this connection, the decision making body may approve a map if it finds that alternate easements, for access or for use, will be provided and that these easements will be substantially equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This finding shall apply only to easements of record or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and no authority is hereby granted to the City Council to determine that the public at large has acquired easements for access through or use of property within a subdivision. Facts in Support of Finding: E -1. The design of the development will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use of property within the proposed development, because there are no public easements located on the property. 0 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2013 -0 ## Paqe 4 of 9 Finding: F. That, subject to the detailed provisions of Section 66474.4 of the Subdivision Map Act, if the land is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act), the resulting parcels following a subdivision of the land would not be too small to sustain their agricultural use or the subdivision will result in residential development incidental to the commercial agricultural use of the land. Facts in Support of Finding: F -1. The property is not subject to the Williamson Act because the subject property is not designated as an agricultural preserve and is less than 100 acres in area. F -2. The site developed for residential use lies in a residentially zoned area. Finding: G. That, in the case of a "land project' as defined in Section 11000.5 of the California Business and Professions Code: (1) There is an adopted specific plan for the area to be included within the land project; and (2) the decision making body finds that the proposed land project is consistent with the specific plan for the area. Facts in Support of Finding: G -1. The property is not a "land project' as defined in Section 11000.5 of the California Business and Professions Code because the existing subdivision does not contain 50 or more parcels. G -2. The project is not located within a specific plan area. Finding: H. That solar access and passive heating and cooling design requirements have been satisfied in accordance with Sections 66473.1 and 66475.3 of the Subdivision Map Act. Facts in Support of Finding: H -1. The proposed parcel map and improvements are subject to Title 24 of the California Building Code that requires new construction to meet minimum heating and cooling efficiency standards depending on location and climate. The Newport Beach Building Division enforces Title 24 compliance through the plan check and inspection process. 10 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2013 -0 ## Paqe 5 of 9 Finding: That the subdivision is consistent with Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act and Section 65584 of the California Government Code regarding the City's share of the regional housing need and that it balances the housing needs of the region against the public service needs of the City's residents and available fiscal and environmental resources. Facts in Support of Finding: 1 -1. The two -unit condominium project is consistent with the R -2 Zoning District which allows two units on the property. Therefore, the parcel map for condominium purposes will not affect the City in meeting its regional housing need. Finding: J. That the discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into the existing sewer system will not result in a violation of existing requirements prescribed by the Regional Water Quality Control Board. Facts in Support of Finding: J -1. Wastewater discharge into the existing sewer system has been designed to comply with the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requirements. Finding: K. For subdivisions lying partly or wholly within the Coastal Zone, that the subdivision conforms with the certified Local Coastal Program and, where applicable, with public access and recreation policies of Chapter Three of the Coastal Act. Facts in Support of Finding: K -1. The project is not located within the Coastal Zone, and therefore, is not applicable in regards to conformance with the certified Local Coastal Program and public access and recreation policies of Chapter Three of the Coastal Act. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: The Zoning Administrator of the City of Newport Beach hereby approves Parcel Map No. NP2013 -001, subject to the conditions set forth in Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated by reference. 2. This action shall become final and effective ten days after the adoption of this Resolution unless within such time an appeal is filed with the Director of Community Development in accordance with the provisions of Title 19 Subdivisions, of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. 11 Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2013 -0 ## Paqe 6 of 9 PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 281h DAY OF MARCH, 2013. go Brenda Wisneski, AICP, Zoning Administrator Zoning Administrator Resolution No. ZA2013 -0 ## Paqe 7 of 9 EXHIBIT "A" CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL 1.

CRAFT, P.L.S. 8516 DATE LICENSE RENEWAL DATE 12/31/14 23 Items B, 1, 2, and 3: Additional Materials Comments on March 28, 2013 Zoning Administrator Agenda Submitted by: Jim Mosher (jimmosherCcDyahoo.com ), 2210 Private Road, Newport Beach 92660 (949 -548- 6229) of March 14, 2013 I noticed one extremely minor gram n age 2, in the last line of the public hearing paragraph: "... it seemed to contradict with what the MUP wo w, Item 1. 718 Poinsettia Avenue Parcel Map (PA2013 -008) In the draft Resolution of Approval: • Since Fact in Support of Finding F -1 establishes the land is not subject to the Williamson Act, any further facts (such as F -2) appear unnecessary. Similar reasoning suggests fact G -2 is also unnecessary, as is the latter part of fact K -1. • Regarding Finding I, the reference to California Government Code section 65584 is to the Housing Element of the General Plan, including its affordability goals. It is not entirely clear that consistency with the present zoning, as recited in the supporting fact I -1, is sufficient to demonstrate that this change in use could not be in conflict with the Housing Element, particularly with regard to the affordability of the newly created units. • The very similar agenda Item 3 includes a required Finding L ( "That public improvements will be required of the Applicant per the Municipal Code and the Subdivision Map Act. "). I am unable to find that as a required finding in Section 19.12.070.A of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, so it is unclear to me why that finding is required to approve Agenda Item 3, but if it is needed there, should it be included in this resolution. • Why does Condition 3 mention "Each unit will require separate utilities for the fire sprinklers "? Do the units not need separate utilities in general, not just for the sprinklers, per Conditions 16 & 17? • Condition 13, requiring replacement of a street tree, may require review and approval by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission under City Council Policy G -1, or other review authorities. It is not clear if this matter is entirely within the authority of the Zoning Administrator to order. Compare to Condition 17 in Agenda Item 3, where authorization by the Municipal Operations Director is implied. • In Condition 19, do the units need to be separately identified? • Is the reference to "duplex" in Condition 26 correct? Fact in Support of Finding A -1 identifies the existing property as a single family residence, not a duplex. • In Condition 28, I don't believe Newport Beach currently has an employee officially called "Planning Director." Was this intended to read "Director of Community Development "? • Regarding the Parcel Map, I am probably not understanding it, but if the solid lines represent the two condo units, they appear to have a substantially smaller footprint than the existing single family residence. I have trouble reconciling this with Fact in Support of Finding A -1, which reports that the square footage of development is increasing from 1,355 to 3,347, and also where the required parking will be provided.
