20.30.XXX - Grade Establishment and Exceptions
A. Purpose/Applicability. This section establishes regulations for determining the
slope and grade of a parcel for the purpose of creating a plane from which to
measure structure height in compliance with the provisions of Section 20.30.010
(Height Measurement and Exceptions).
B. Determining the slope of a parcel.
1. The slope of a parcel may be determined either for;
a. The entire parcel,
b. The parcel's buildable area (the parcel area minus all areas
required for setbacks), or
C. A proposed structure's actual footprint (the area of proposed
construction enclosed by a rectangle).
Illustration to be provided
2. The determination of which of the areas described above is to be used to
determine slope for the purpose of this Section shall be at the discretion of
the applicant.
3. For the purpose of this Section, either the total parcel, the buildable area
of the parcel, or the actual footprint of the proposed structure shall be
referred to as the "site".
4. Sites shall not be altered by any fill or excavation prior to determining the
slope of the site or establishing its grade.
C. Establishment of Grade. The "grade" of a parcel shall be established by one of
the following methods unless one of the exceptions described in Subsection D,
below, applies.
1. Five percent slope or less. On sites that do not slope more than five
percent from either front to rear, or side to side, the grade of the site shall
be a horizontal plane established by determining the average elevation of
the existing grade at all four corners of the parcel.
1
City ojNemport Beach Zoning Code Rewrite
6/28/2007
2. More than five percent slope.
a. On sites that slope more than five percent from either front to rear,
or side to side, the grade of the site 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 four outer
most points (front and rear) shall be taken at the points where the
front and rear setback lines intersect the side property lines and the
other points shall be taken within these points along each side
property line.
b. On parcels that slope an average of 20 percent or greater, or on
irregularly shaped or sloping parcels, the Director may require that
additional points of elevation be provided.
Illustration to be provided
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 or representative of the prevailing
grades on adjoining parcels, the Director shall establish the grade in
compliance with Paragraph D,3, below. The Director may defer action and
refer the determination to the Commission.
D. Exceptions to Grade Determination.
1. Subdivisions. If the City has approved a grading plan or map as part of
an approved subdivision, the established grade shall be the finished grade
as shown on the grading plan or Final Map.
2. Flood Hazard Areas. The height of structures in flood hazard areas shall
be measured from the finished floor of the principal structure 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 the Council.
However, the minimum required first floor finished floor elevation for
interior living areas of all new structures shall be at least 8.67 feet (NAVD
88) consistent with the Public Works Department standard for bulkhead
elevation.
3. Establishment of Alternate Grade. In a case where the Director finds
that the existing grade on the subject parcel has been altered (e.g.,
contains retaining structures, property line walls, planters, or previous
excavations) to the degree that it is not representative of the prevailing
grades on adjoining parcels and therefore is not appropriate for the
2
City offexport Beach Zoning Code Rewrite
6/28/2007
purposes of establishing the grade of the parcel, the Director shall
establish grade in compliance with the required findings below and the
approval of a site plan review in compliance with 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 adjoining parcels and will not be
detrimental or injurious to property and improvements on adjoining
parcels.
b. The proposed grade and related development will not result in the
loss of significant views from public rights-of-way and is compatible
with the existing character of the neighborhood in which the project
is located.
C. The proposed grade being requested by the applicant is necessary
for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of
the applicant.

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 Exceptions).
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).

(Note: The 45 degree angle side yard setback plane will not apply to
structures on parcels less than 40 feet in width. On those parcels only the
front and rear setback plane will apply.)

measure structure height in compliance with the provisions of Section 20.30.010
(Height Measurement and Exceptions).
B. Determining the slope of a parcel.
1. The slope of a parcel may be determined either for;
a. The entire parcel,
b. The parcel's buildable area (the parcel area minus all areas
required for setbacks), or
C. A proposed structure's actual footprint (the area of proposed
construction enclosed by a rectangle that most approximates the

1
City of Newport Bench Zoning Code Rewrite
6/28/2007
2. The determination of which of the areas described above is to be used to
determine slope for the purpose of this Section shall be at the discretion of

of the parcel, or the footprint of the proposed structure enclosed by a
rectangle shall be referred to as the "site".
4. Sites shall not be altered by any fill or excavation prior to determining the
slope of the site or establishing its grade.
C. Establishment of Grade. The "grade" of a parcel shall be established by one of
the following methods unless one of the exceptions described in Subsection D,
below, applies.
1. Less than five percent slope. On sites that do not slope more than five
percent from either front to rear, or side to side, the grade of the site shall
be a horizontal plane established by determining the average elevation of
the existing grade at all four corners of the site. The method used to
_. _establish the grade of the site shall be the same as that used to determine_
the slope of the site as described in Subsection B, above.
2. More than five percent slope.
a. On sites that slope more than five percent from either front to rear,
or side to side, the grade of the site 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
