The new slips will be assigned to the two residential units at the upland property. The boardwalk will be replaced like- for -like maintaining public access along the waterfront. RECOMMENDATION: Provide comment to staff. Receive and file. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: No funding requirements. DISCUSSION: The proposed redevelopment of the public boardwalk and marina at 3388 Via Lido has been brought to the Harbor Commission in an effort to solicit advice and comment on the proposed development. This is a noteworthy project in the Lido Marina Village ( "LMV ") area of which the Commission should be well- informed and provide feedback to staff. In July 2010 and September 2010 Planning Commission and City Council respectively approved the building renovation at 3388 Via Lido (Vicinity Map- Attachment A). The renovation includes converting a commercial bank building into a mixed -use project that incorporates both residential and commercial uses consistent with the General Plan. The upper three floors consist of two residential units while the first and second floors remain office /retail. Nine (9) on -site parking spaces are provided for the commercial tenants, and one single -car garage and two, two -car parking garages for the residential units. Finally, new landscaping will be planted, making the project more pedestrian friendly and aesthetically appealing. 3388 Via Lido Dock and Boardwalk Project August 14, 2013 Page 2 New Port Beach Mixed Development, LLP ( NPBMD) is the property owner of 3388 and is also the owner of the New Port Bay Marina property located at 2300 Newport Blvd. The latter is currently under construction for mixed -use development and a new marina. NPBMD has recently applied to Harbor Resources for the removal and replacement of the marina bayward of 3388 Via Lido. An application for an Approval in Concept ( "AIC ") has been submitted to Harbor Resources for the removal of the existing 4,099 sq. ft. floating dock and boardwalk; Replacement with new 3,517 sq. ft. floating dock, platform /landing, 3 ft. x 24 ft. gangway, and 6 ft. wide public boardwalk; Removal of 10 existing concrete pilings and replacement with 11 new concrete pilings; And re -use in the same location of 6 existing 14" concrete T- piling. Exhibits are included illustrating existing and proposed configurations (Attachments B and C). According to Council Policy H -1 at U.S. Bulkhead Station No. 124, piers or slips are permitted to extend 20 feet channelward of the U.S. Pierhead Line. In this scenario the slips extend 15 feet beyond the Pierhead Line. The proposed slips are 80 feet long and 28 feet wide. NBMC Section 17.25.020(C)(2) allows vessels berthing at this Bulkhead Station to extend beyond the longest finger by the width of its beam. In this instance the largest allowable vessel would be in the 108 foot range. The upland property is mixed -use with both residential and commercial uses upland /landward of the bulkhead. The proposed dock configuration is designed to comply with residential conditions including setback requirements and procuring a Residential Pier Permit upon completion. All piers and slips for residential properties shall be set back a minimum of five feet from the prolongation of the property line, per NBMC 17.35.020(B)(1). Should the dock revert to a commercial use then steps will be taken to secure a Commercial Pier Lease or Permit. Along the length of the bay frontage from 3366 Via Lido through 3450 Via Oporto runs a publicly accessible boardwalk. The City's Harbor & Bay Element Goal 6 identifies and outlines public access points to the bay, specifically the extension of the LMV boardwalk across all of the waterfront commercial properties in Lido Village eventually connecting with Mariners' Mile. The existing boardwalk fronting 3388 Via Lido is pile supported bayward of the bulkhead. The project will remove the existing, adjacent, 6 foot boardwalk and replace it like for like (Attachment D). The large commercial marina of LMV is dissected by the 3388 Via Lido property. This redevelopment will sever the headwalk that provides continuous access along the existing dock system. However, on both sides of 3388 Via Lido there are gangways providing access to the slips by means of the public boardwalk (Attachments E and F). NPBMD will repair the floats and boardwalk at those respective property lines where the 3388 Via Lido Dock and Boardwalk Project August 14, 2013 Page 3 headwalk currently runs uninterrupted along the LMV waterfront. Representatives from the neighboring properties have been contacted and notified. Water and electrical utilities will be installed on the dock system according to current California Building Code standards. The electrical system to the dock necessitates 100 amps to each slip to adequately power the vessels. Additionally, the AIC will contain special conditions referencing generator noise, allowable berthing limits, and maintenance and accessibility of the public boardwalk. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The Harbor Commission's approval of this item is categorically exempt from CEQA under section 15302, Class 2, Replacement or Reconstruction: "Class 2 consists of replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced."
