Draft Regulations
Attached are draft regulation prepared by the consultant team and based on the
input provided by the Committee and Advisory group. Staff and the consultant
team are requesting that the Committee and Advisory Group provide input on
these regulations and discuss whether they achieve the goals suggested by the
Advisory Group
Measurement of Height —Staff Alternative
Planning staff has been discussing various options for the measurement of
height and is providing another alternative. The particulars are:
Height Limit — RS and RT Zones
Height Limit: 24 feet for flat roofs, parapets, deck rails and all other flat
elements.
Height Limit Pitched Roof: Pitched roofs, such as hips and gables, shall be
permitted to a maximum height of 29 feet provided the roof has a
minimum 4:12 pitch. Barreled, gambrel, mansard, and rainbow roofs shall
be permitted, provided the design of the roof does not extend beyond the
envelope of a projected pitch roof as authorized.
Exception: Pitched roofs over 24 feet covering a habitable third floor are
permitted a minimum 3:12 pitch.
This alternative theoretically allows buildings to achieve similar designs to what
can be achieved under the existing code. The elimination of the mid -point and
the complicated mid -point measurement allows designers more flexibility than
what the current regulations allow. The 750 square foot third floor maximum, as
June 15, 2005 1
recommended by the Advisory Group, may not be achievable on small or narrow
lots with this methodology, but, the size of third floor that can be achieved will be
commensurate with the lot size and comparable to what can be achieved using
today's regulations. As suggested by the Advisory Group, regulations can be
drafted to limit the location of third floors.

City ofNe"port Beach Zoning Code Rewrite
20.30.010 - Height Measurement and Exceptions
A. Purpose/Applicability. This section establishes regulations for determining
compliance with the maximum structure height limits established for each zoning
district by Part 2 (Zoning Districts, Allowable Land Uses, and Zoning District
Standards) or as identified on a Height Limitation Zone Map in compliance with
Subsection E„(Height Limitation Zones;), below.
B. Height of Structures and Measurement.
1. Structure height established. Structures shall not exceed the
maximum allowable height limit for the zoning district in which the
structure is located except as provided in Subsection D (Exceptions to
Height Limits and Setback Planes), or Subsection F (Required Findings to
Exceed Height Limits), below.
2. Height measurement. The maximum allowable height shall be
measured as the vertical distance from the established grade of the parcel
at any point along a setback line (buildable area line) to the height plane
located the allowed number of feet above and parallel to the established
grade. The established grade of the parcel shall be determined by one of
the methods in Section 20.30 xxx (Establishment of Grade and!
Figure xx
l letght Measurement
,(to _be:provided)
3. RS and RT zoning districts. In addition to the standards for the
maximum allowable height limit in RS and RT zoning districts, the height
of structures are also regulated by setback plane standards as described
in Subsection C (Setback Planes), below.
C. Setback Planes.
1. A setback plane is established by projecting a line at any point along
the required setback line to a point the allowed vertical distance above the
established grade, and beginning at that point projecting a 45 degree
angle extending inward toward the interior of the parcel to a point where it
intersects the height plane established by and equal to the allowed
maximum height for the zoning district. (See figure xx, below)
2. Setback plane standards are established for the RS and RT zoning
districts in Chapter 20.22 (Residential Zoning Districts).

20.30.XXX - Grade Establishment and Exceptions
A. Purpose/Applicability. This section establishes regulations for determining the
grade of a parcel for the purpose creating a plane from which to measure structure
height in compliance with the provisions of Section 20.30.010 (Height Measurement and
Exceptions).
B. Establishment of Grade. For the purpose of measuring structure height, "grade"
shall be established by one of the following methods unless one of the exceptions
described in Paragraph C, below, applies:
1. Less than five percent slope. On parcels that do not slope more than five
percent from either front to rear property lines, or side to side property lines, the
grade of the parcel from which structure height is measured shall be a horizontal
plane established by determining the average elevation of the existing grade at
all four corners of the parcel, unaltered by any fill or excavation.
(Note: This method produces a plane with one elevation overall and does not tilt
front to rear or side to side.)
Alternative method
On parcels that do not slope more than five percent from either front to rear
property lines, or side to side property lines, the grade of the parcel from which
structure height is measured shall be a horizontal plane established by
connecting the elevations at all four corners of the parcel, unaltered by any fill or
excavation.
(Note: This method produces a plane with potentially different elevations at each
of the corners and could tilt front to rear and/or side to side.)
2. More than five percent slope.
a. On parcels that slope more than five percent from either front to rear
property lines, or side to side property lines, the grade of the parcel from
which structure height is measured shall be a plane established by
determining the elevation of the parcel at five evenly spaced points along
each side property line and connecting those points across the parcel. The
two outer most points (front and rear) along each property line shall be
taken at the point where the front and rear setback lines intersect the side
property lines and the other points shall be taken within these points.
b. On steeply sloped parcels (20% average or greater), or irregularly
shaped or sloping parcels, the Director may require that additional points
of elevation be provided.
City of Newport Beach Zoning Code Rewrite
3. Unusual topography or conditions. In situations where the elevation of the
existing grade at a parcel corner or side property line is not clearly representative
of a parcel's topography because, for example, of the presence of existing
structures (e.g., retaining walls, property -line walls, or planters), the Director shall
establish the grade in compliance with Subparagraph C,3, below.
C. Exceptions to Grade Determination.
1. Subdivisions. If the City has approved a grading plan or map as part of a
subdivision, the established grade shall be the finished grade as shown on the
plan or map.
2. Flood Hazard Areas. The height shall be measured from the finished floor of
any portion of the principal building where habitable space is required to be
elevated to the elevation established by the Flood Insurance Rate Maps
recognized by the Building Department as part of flood safety requirements and
maps adopted by City Council. Notwithstanding the building elevations
established by the Flood Insurance Rate Maps, the minimum required first floor
finished floor elevation for the interior living areas of all new structures shall be at
least 8.67 (NAVD 88) consistent with the Public Works Department standard for
bulkhead elevation.
3. Establishment of Alternate Grade. In a case where the established grade is
inappropriate for the purpose of measuring height, in the judgment of the
Director, the Director shall establish grade in a manner to ensure that the
purpose of this Section is fulfilled. The establishment of grade by the Director
shall require the approval of a site plan review in compliance with Section
20.64.070 (Site Plan/Design Review).
In order to establish grade, the Director shall first make the following findings in
addition to those required by Section 20.64.070 (Site Plan/Design Review);
a. The proposed grade being requested by the applicant is reasonable
and comparable with the grades of surrounding properties and lots with
similar topography and, the establishment of the proposed grade will not
be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, comfort, and general welfare of
persons residing or working in the neighborhood or be detrimental or
injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general
welfare of the City.
b. The proposed grade and related development will not result in the loss
of significant views from public rights of way and shall be compatible with
the existing character of the neighborhood in which the project is located.
c. The existing grade on the subject parcel is inappropriate and
unworkable for the purpose of measuring height.

d. The proposed grade being requested by the applicant is necessary for
the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights of the
applicant.
POTENTIAL INCENTIVES PROGRAMS TO IMPLEMENT
GENERAL PLAN POLICIES
Introduction
This report presents a survey of incentives that can be considered as a menu or toolbox of
actions that may be implemented individually, or in combination as part of the updated Zoning
Code, to encourage the aggregation of small parcels and development of preferred land uses
in accordance with the updated General Plan. Specifically, these address:
■ Lot consolidation of small, irregular-shaped lots with multiple owners to stimulate the
development of more viable and cohesive retail and mixed use development;
■ The attraction and retention of new commercial and marine -oriented commercial
businesses; and
• Relocation of existing marine -related businesses from Mariners' Mile to West Newport
Mesa.
Applicable General Plan Policies
Mariners' Mile
LU 6.19.2 Bay Fronting Properties [designated as "MU -W1" Sub -Area A]
Encourage marine -related and visitor -serving retail, restaurant, hotel, institutional, and
recreational uses, and allow residential uses on parcels with a minimum frontage of 200 lineal
feet where a minimum of 50 percent of the permitted square footage shall be devoted to
nonresidential uses.
LU 6.19.3 Marine -Related Businesses
Protect and encourage facilities that serve marine -related businesses and industries unless
present and foreseeable future demand for such facilities is already adequately provided for
in the area. Encourage coastal -dependent industrial uses to locate or expand within existing
sites and allow reasonable long-term growth.
LU 6.19.1 3 Lot Consolidation on Inland Side of Coast Highway
Permit development intensities in areas designated as "CG(0.3)" to be increased to a floor
area ratio of 0.5 where parcels are consolidated to accommodate larger commercial
development projects that provide sufficient parking.
West Newport Mesa
LU 6.6.2 Residential Types
Promote the development of a mix of residential types and building scales within the densities
permitted by the "RM" designation, which may include single-family attached, townhomes,
apartments, flats, and comparable units. Residential densities may be increased on a property
POTENTIAL INCENTIVES PROGRAMS TO IMPLEMENT GENERAL PLAN POLICIES 1
as a means of promoting a variety of housing types within Newport Mesa, provided that the
overall average density of 18 units per acre is not exceeded.
LU 6.7.1 Primary Uses
Encourage the development of small-scale incubator industries.
LU 6.7.2 Marine Based Businesses
Encourage and provide incentives for the relocation of marine -based Newport Beach
businesses, including boat storage and recreational vehicles, to properties retained for
industrial purposes.
West Newport Highway
General Plan Policy Overview
The General Plan provides for the improvement of Coast Highway fronting properties in West
Newport by concentrating local and visitor -serving retail in two centers at Prospect Street and
Orange Street with expanded parking, enhancing existing and allowing additional housing on
intervening parcels, and developing a clearly defined entry at its western edge with
Huntington Beach.
Other Applicable General Plan Policies
LU 6.8.3 Marine -Related Businesses
Protect and encourage marine -related businesses to locate and expand on the Peninsula unless
present and foreseeable future demand for such facilities is already adequately provided for
in the area.
LU 6.8.7 Property Improvement
Provide incentives for and work with property owners to improve their properties and achieve
the community's vision for the Balboa Peninsula.
LU 6.1 3.6 Enhancing Balboa Village's Viability and Character
Provide incentives for owners to improve their properties, to develop retail uses that serve
adjoining residential neighborhoods, and retain and develop marine -related uses along the
harbor frontage.
Incentives Options
In developing this report, incentive programs being used by other communities were reviewed
for their appropriateness as potential options for Newport Beach. Discussions with their staff
indicate that the programs that have proven to be most effective in fostering lot assembly and
relocation are likely infeasible for broad application in Newport Beach.
The provision of bonus densities is one of the most effective tools available to a community.
Essentially, the greater the bonus, the greater the stimulus for parcel assembly, use attraction,
and use relocation. The scale of bonus required is a function of the increase in value and
financial return, outweighing the increased development costs, for a developer. However, the
strict limits imposed on development capacities by the General Plan and Charter Section A23
POTENTIAL INCENTIVES PROGRAMS TO IMPLEMENT GENERAL PLAN POLICIES 2
practically preclude the use of bonuses unless underlying development capacities are reduced
below the Plan's defined limits. The amount of reduction necessary to achieve the Plan's
objectives would be, as stated, a function of the increment of value and profitability that could
be attained for a developer. Given the highly restricted capacities of the Plan, it is likely that
there would be insufficient incremental density and value gain from a further reduction to
justify the use of bonus densities for the purposes of lot consolidation and use relocation.
However, there are a number of exceptions where the General Plan's capacities account for
the use of bonuses to achieve lot consolidation and use attraction. First, for the commercially -
designated properties on the inland side of Coast Highway between Irvine Avenue and Dover
Drive, the permitted underlying floor area ratio of 0.3 may be increased to 0.5 for the
consolidation of parcels with the provision of adequate parking (Policy LU 6.19.13).
Additionally, the permitted development intensities for mixed use buildings in various areas of
the City are universally greater than those for a single use project such as retail or multi -family
residential. Depending on market and land values, these may be effective in fostering lot
consolidation and the attraction of new mixed housing and retail development.
The financial and regulatory tools available to a city through the statutory redevelopment
process also have proven to be effective strategies for lot consolidation and use attraction and
relocation. However, the existing conditions and land values in Newport Beach make the
findings of blight problematic, nor would there likely be community support for the use of the
California Redevelopment Law authorities.
Consequently, the potential tools available to Newport Beach predominately include
development entitlement, regulatory, and fee waivers. Table 1 presents a summary of
financial and regulatory incentives that 10 other communities have utilized and are
representative of those being implemented by jurisdictions in California. Critically, their
effectiveness in fostering the City's desired objectives will be determined by the added
financial value and return for a developer. At a minimum, a combination of financial and
regulatory tools would be required to affect and encourage appropriate development.

City of Torrance
Assistance is offered to new businesses that wish to relocate to Torrance or existing businesses
that wish to expand. The purpose is to expand employment opportunities and expand the
City's tax base. Examples of economic development assistance include:
■ Discounted/waived building permit fees
■ Expedited permitting
■ Streamlined Permit Process
■ Subsidized construction tax
City of Stockton
In order to stimulate economic development within the City of Stockton, the City Council
adopted a fee deferral program for commercial and industrial buildings. Rather than paying
"development fees" at the time a building permit is issued, the developer of a qualified
nonresidential project may elect to defer a portion of those fees.
"Development Fees" (Public Facilities Fees) that may qualify for deferral under this payment
option include:
■ City Office Space
■ Fire Stations
■ Libraries
■ Police Station Expansion
■ Street Improvements
■ Traffic Signal
■ Sewer Connection
■ Water Connection (City of Stockton service area only)
The City of Stockton also offers a program to reduce or eliminate building permit and
associated public facilities fees for many downtown projects. If the project rehabilitates an
existing downtown building that has been vacant for six months or longer, most permit fees will
be waived. Demolitions, new construction, or expansions do not qualify.
City of Benecia
The City of Benecia has adopted a Fee Deferral Program that allows payment of certain
development fees over time instead of at the time of building permit issuance. Businesses must
be a commercial or industrial enterprise that is new, expanding, or changing uses (i.e.
warehouse to office) and creating new jobs.
Fees can be deferred for up to five years, with 20% of the fees due upon application for a
building permit. Eligible fees are:
■ Capital License Tax
■ Sewer Connection Fee
■ Traffic Impact Fee
■ Water Connection Fee
The fees shall be paid according to the agreed upon payment schedule:

Detailed Information on Lot Consolidation Incentives
City of Glendora
The City of Glendora provides several incentives for lot consolidation within the Route 66
Corridor Specific Plan project area as a means to maximize development potential. The
following incentives are made available to applicants who consolidate two or more parcels
within the Route 66 Corridor Specific Plan area:
■ Development Intensity (FAR) bonus. Increased floor area ratio (FAR) bonus. The FAR bonus
ranges from 5 to 15 percent depending on the zone. The bonus incentives apply to the
gross square footage of a single parcel following consolidation.
■ Financial Incentives. At the discretion of the City of Glendora, fee assistance and other
financial incentives may be made available to encourage lot consolidation activities.
Financial incentives may include, but not limited to:
> Permit fee assistance (waivers, reduced fees, etc.)
> Reductions in approval procedure timeline.
City of Clearwater Florida
City of Clearwater Florida has created a Marina Residential District along its water front that
includes limited commercial uses. Many of the parcels within this District are shallow, limiting the
utility of the existing parcels. The City has created several incentives within its Design
Guidelines to consolidate parcels and encourage new residential and hotel uses.
Some of the incentives within the Marina Residential District include height incentives:
■ Projects that consolidate a minimum of 5 acres will be eligible for approval of height up
to 100 feet, subject to meeting the stands of the Zoning Code and approval by the
Community Development Board
■ Projects that consolidated a minimum of 2.5 acres will be eligible for approval of height
up to 70 feet
■ Structures located between the Causeway and Boymont Street exceeding 35 feet in
height, shall occupy no more than 50 percent of the property frontage.
City of Grand Terrace
The City of Grand Terrace has developed several economic incentives to encourage lot
consolidation for small, irregularly sized lots within its Barton Road Corridor Specific Plan. In
order to qualify to request a lot consolidation bonus, the total street frontage of the lots being
combined must surpass the minimum street frontage (or lot width) required for the district in
which the lots are located and the existing lots must be under two or more ownerships.
POTENTIAL INCENTIVES PROGRAMS TO IMPLEMENT GENERAL PLAN POLICIES 7
These incentives include:
3 to 4 lots 10% reduction of parking
